You know, we have had so much division in the Church for a thousand years now. This is everyone's fault, basically. Of course, there are a small few souls that are not at fault. Furthermore, Unity will not come by a signed treaty. Unity actually, will come through intermarrying.
I propose intermarriages between the Churches of all kinds; both the intermarriages of men and women in holy matrimony one belonging let's say to the Roman Catholic church and the other from the Eastern orthodox Church. Mirna of Soufanieh for instance is Roman Catholic while her husband is Eastern Orthodox. Vassiliki is Eastern Orthodox and is married to Per from the Lutheran Church.
The ICCEC will do much to help for unity if their parishioners are willing to do these intermarriages... ICCEC man with a Roman Catholic woman, or ICCEC woman with an Eastern Orthodox man, etcetera and keep it up.
but, Unity will come through intermarrying is on a higher plane as well. It also means concelebrating masses between the Orthodox and the Catholics and ICCEC etcetera... Here is what is already happening in Ecumenical Pilgrimages, , and what will happen at Hacienda Hotel on Sepulveda Boulevard, near the LAX airport on NOVEMBER 14th.
An Eastern Orthodox Priest and a Roman Catholic Priest will concelebrate the Mass together. THIS CONCELEBRATION FIRST HAPPENED AT :
THE HOLY SEPULCHRE CHURCH OF THE RESURRECTION DURING LENT in the year 2000.
WITHIN A FEW FEET OF THE ANOINTMENT STONE
THE ANOINTMENT STORE THAT PRODUCES A MIRACULOUS LIGHT EVERY HOLY SATURDAY, A LIGHT THAT BECOMES FIRE, EVERY HOLY SATURDAY SINCE 0034 A.D. This is that same fire that they light up all their candles with and that for the first 33 minutes does not burn your face even though you put your face in it. They take this fire and spread it to all the candles of the people, and the candles of the patriarchs. They take these candles onto Jet Planes, and these bishops with these candles remaining lit, are given the classification equivalent to those who are heads of state for this special event. They hold these candles with them on various jet planes. Jet planes leading to Moscow Russia, Al-Qahirah Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Pakistan, India, Japan, Ukraine, all of Europe. When they arrive to the airports, sometimes there are other patriarchs, priests and faithful waiting at the airports to have their candles lit. They spread these candles to light other candles. They make sure that this fire spreads fast enough so that on RESURRECTION DAY = EASTER SUNDAY, they can spread THIS Light of THESE candles to EVERYONE for the Midnight Mass Divine Liturgy.
This is the reason for this custom we have in our churches to light candles for Easter midnight Mass.
Well, anyway, I was saying that this permission for ALL members of True Life in GOD to receive Holy Communion was granted by that Orthodox Patriarch of the Holy Sepulchre Church of the Resurrection that Constantine founded with St. Helena. All members of True Life in GOD received Holy Communion regardless of their religious affiliation. Has the I.C.C.E.C. done that? Has R.C.I.A. done that?
Since then, every pilgrimage with True Life in GOD is an Ecumenical Pilgrimage where everyone receives Holy Communion and where sometimes both Orthodox and Catholic priests or bishops concelebrate the Mass.
THIS IS INTERMARRYING.
NOW, the LORD SAID, that IF WE WILL AGREE TO CELEBRATE EASTER ALL ON ONE DATE, then HE WILL DO THE REST TO UNIFY HIS CHURCH!!
Now, we are NO LONGER talking about discussing doctrine....
we are no longer talking about discussing who is the visible head of the Church
Did Christ appoint Peter to guide HIS Sheep until HIS Return?
Well, let's examine this first.... Has the Church remained DIVIDED for the last 1000 years?
What was the NATURE of it's FIRST division for this 1000 years that still continues?
This occurred in 1054 AD. It was over the argument on whether the successor of Peter is the visible head of the Church.
Now, many confess that there is no real need for a visible universal head, because CHRIST is the HEAD of the Church. O.K. well, explain to me then how come we REMAIN DIVIDED for the LAST 1000 YEARS? Have you ever heard of a government that remained UNITED when it had Different Ultimate Heads? The Beast of Apocalypse 13 had 7 Heads, whereas the Lamb of GOD has ONE Head, but 7 horns.
Now, we remain divided. We have tried to be united WITHOUT a VISIBLE HEAD. We remain divided. Do you not think that GOD FORESAW THIS? What if we had two concurrent presidents of the United states, each propounding a DIFFERENT CURRENCY, and a DIFFERENT FORM of GOVERNMENT, and a DIFFERENT ALLEGIANCE. Would America remain united? Or would it divide? We can at LEAST see that a CIVIL government needs to have ONE Ultimate Head of Government. Even, if we can depose him peacefully for a DIFFERENT one. Now, we argue that the Church because it is DIVINE, does not have to have ONE UNIVERSAL VISIBLE HEAD... because it is SO MIGHTY in GOD, that it does not need this, it ALREADY has JESUS CHRIST, the Universal Head.... OK, then explain to me YOUR DIVISION. DIVISION IS A SIN. In spite of receiving regularly the EUCHARIST, which brings UNITY, we remain DIVIDED; Divided for a THOUSAND YEARS. Over what? Over whether Peter has Primacy or not. It seems that the ALL POWERFUL CHURCH remains DIVIDED and can't unite itself. Perhaps the Church needs to have a visible Head that would remain such until the Church comes into full unity of faith, a spotless Church without any wrinkle. After THAT, we might not need a visible head anymore. The reason I suggest that we need a visible head, is because all OTHER forms of government have a visible head, AND because we have remained DIVIDED for the last THOUSAND YEARS! A THOUSAND YEARS is Extremely LONG. . Something must be wrong with the idea of not having a visible head for ALL Christians, since we have remained divided for A THOUSAND YEARS. We have remained divided for super long. The Roman Catholic Church says: Peter is the Visible Head: The Orthodox Church says that there IS no visible Head, only Ecumenical Councils are what determines the Unity.
Well, did the ORTHODOX CHURCH have ECUMENICAL COUNCILS since 787AD? Nothing passed 860 AD huh? The Eastern Orthodox Catechism does a catechism of the FIRST SEVEN ECUMENICAL COUNCILS, and seems to confess that there were no longer any Ecumenical Councils since about the seventh ecumenical council. Here is something to ponder on. How come no ECUMENICAL COUNCILS since around 800 AD? That is OVER a THOUSAND YEARS.
Maybe you feel that we do not need a visible head.... OK, well, we have remained DIVIDED SINCE many of us felt that we don't need a visible head of the whole church. What do you think of that?
Well, I propose ONLY THIS NOW... . since we have brought SO MUCH PAIN to CHRIST by remaining DIVIDED, why don't we accept CHRIST's offer of.....
UNIFYING THE DATE OF EASTER............. CHRIST promised that if we UNIFY THE DATE OF EASTER for both EAST and WEST, HE will do all the rest to unify HIS Church!
NOW< we no longer talk about DOCTRINE, about HIERARCHY or anything, JUST UNIFY FOR ME THE FEAST OF EASTER.
I, the ILLUSTRIOUS KING, MAJESTY above all majesties, SOVEREIGN above all sovereigns, call you by Grace to eat this time the living Manna, the Bread of Heaven, in form of the Eucharist; and so I tell those churches whose clergy have not accepted My Mystery: "come to your senses and seek Me earnestly, master your resentment, as well, against My Mother; may every race know that My Flesh and Blood comes from My Mother; yes, My Body comes from the most Holy Virgin, from pure blood; blessed be Her Name! to save all the humble of the earth who receive Me and to give them imperishable life I became Bread to give Myself to you; and through this Communion I sanctify all who receive Me, deifying them to become the flesh of My Flesh, the bones of My Bones; by partaking Me, I Who am Divine, you and I become one single body, spiritually united; we become kin, for I can turn you into gods by participation; through My Divinity I deify men.....
ReplyDeleteHave you not heard: "you too are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you;" (Psalm 82:06)
now I am judged by men; The Garment (Christ) that can cover you, adorning you majestically, giving you a metamorphosis, divinizing you, is rejected by those churches who cannot comprehend My Mystery..... today again I cry out from Heaven: "brothers, why are you undermining My Divinity? if you claim that you are the ones who know what is right, then why is your spirit plundering My Church? I am inviting you to reign with Me, I am inviting you to celebrate Mass and partake of the Divine Mystery in the manner I truly instituted;"
the arrogant will endlessly jeer at Me, but this is because they have swerved from My Light; I am present in My Eucharist, but unless they see My Divinity with spiritual eyes, they will continue to be like a drowsy man, who never grasps anything you tell him; "what have you said? were you talking to me? eh?" he would ask;
kingly and glorious these churches proclaim Me, they affirm My Might, proclaiming My fearful power, singing their praises to Me, acknowledging My Omnipotence and My mighty wonders, but I become a stumbling stone when it comes to measure the magnificence of My Divinity and of My Presence in the Eucharist;
today this is the stumbling stone rejected by the builders and they do not realize it is the keystone; (Psa 118:22 1 Pet 2:9 Isa 8:14 Matt 21:42)
and you, My daughter, continue to proclaim Me as your only Love, and tell your brothers and sisters those words: "the Lord is good, for He has taught me; He is known to teach and instruct the poor and the wretched..."
delicate girl, I will share something with you: soon I shall let the dragon eat its own tail, I am soon to issue orders from heaven; I mean to restore My House; I will re-erect My Eucharist in the houses (churches) that have been despoiled of My Presence and they shall become holy; you (the church) have been pillaged from My Sovereignty, razed to the ground by the dragon, yet I tell you, I tell all of you: My Spirit will be poured out on the earth to drench it with the dew of heaven and the grass of the earth will be greener, and the trees will bloom and their foliage will be beautiful and their fruit abundant, yes! abundant, wait and you shall see!
(The Lord suddenly turned towards the dragon and said what follows-->) "who tells you, you will last forever? you soared long enough like the eagle, setting your nest and sting among the stars(faithful); now, come and face Me into battle; you will not be facing Abel; I will fling your dagger down; you have plundered My House, and you stole from within It what was most Precious; you have stolen to your heart's content; you have passed the gate of My people and you have blinded them; but now, your time is over, although you still believe you can extend your dark kingdom to mislead My people; no more of that; justice is ready to flow like water and My Spirit like an unfailing stream....
