The Blessed Mother Shedding Tears of Blood

Our Lady is shedding tears of blood in Naju, Korea. Here is her message on December 31, 2005:

Message on December 31, 2005 at about 8:30 p.m.

The Blessed Mother began shedding tears of blood through her statue on December 31, 2005 at about 7:55 p.m. By 8 o'clock, blood was all over her face. There also were clear bloodstains on both her palms.
At about 8:30 p.m., I knelt before the Blessed Mother's statue and, with heartbreaking sorrows, thought how painful the Blessed Mother must have been feeling to shed tears of blood like this and said to her, "Blessed Mother! At least we, who are supposed to know the Lord and you will form unity, remain awake, pray and wipe away your tears of blood by turning our lives into prayers for the clergy and religious whom the Lord chose personally and also for the numerous sinners in this world so that they may repent of their sins and be saved." At that moment, the Blessed Mother appeared, shedding tears of blood. After sobbing for a while covering her eyes with her hands, she said as follows:


THE BLESSED MOTHER:
All my beloved children in the world!
For more than 20 years, I have made the shortcut to Heaven known by showing so many signs and the unprecedented miracles that have not been shown anywhere else in the world for the Pope, Bishops, priests, religious, and all the children in the world and repeating the same words again and again through the entreaties and sacrificial and redemptive sufferings filled with love by the little soul chosen by me for a great mission.
However, many of the clergy, religious and even the children who have been called have lost their ability to discern because of the sweet and dazzling words of the false prophets. As they follow the false prophets, they become dizzy and unable to see clearly. They become spiritually blind and deaf, lose their sense of direction, become enslaved by their misguided spirituality, and even incite other innocent souls to walk on the road to hell. As I cannot look at this any longer and my Heart is flaming up vehemently, I cannot help shedding tears of blood like this.
Furthermore, numerous children in the world are trying to have their own ways with their self-centeredness and self-righteousness and are unable to achieve unity with one another. As they are giving a gift of joy to the devil of division, how can I not shed tears of blood?
My extremely beloved sons and daughters who have been called!
Wipe away my tears of blood by uniting with the little soul who has been chosen by me and who always responds with "Amen" to the Lord's words and mine even in the midst of extreme pains as she has been called to a great mission.
That you may not be thrown into the burning sulfur that flames up violently at the time of the Last Judgment after having wasted time by leading a dissolute and shaky life, enslaved by vain and false prophecies and fantasies because of your failure to give up curiosity, arm yourselves with love and turning your lives into prayers without delay, even if your lives are imperfect, and graciously offer up the totality of your lives.
My beloved children who have been called! There is no time to hesitate or procrastinate. Repent (your sins) promptly. As now is the important time for separating grains from dry grass, the cunning devil is rampant in all the possible ways and is planning all kinds of maneuvers by packaging false prophecies most attractively, making contact with people individually, communicating to them the false prophecies, which impoverish their souls, as if these false prophecies were words from me, and thereby confusing even the clergy and the innocent souls, who have been called, so that they may not be able to discern.
As I said before, do not ever complacently think that the many large-scale disasters that occur in the sky, on the ground, and in the sea—frequent earthquakes and tidal waves, heavy rains and typhoons, heavy snowfalls and forest fires, famines and diseases, wars and murders, confrontations and conflicts between nations and between races, dissolution of families and murders among close relatives—are just natural disasters and accidental occurrences.
If you do not listen carefully to my pleas of tears and tears of blood and my screams that I make with the voice of love until my throat starts bleeding, giving you love by squeezing my whole body, and compromise with this world filled with pride and poison, God's response will be stern, and the flames of disaster, burning with justice, will fall again on various places. Therefore, to soften the wrath of God, offer up prayers, sacrifices and reparations and become little souls who can make reparations for the sins that have offended the most dignified and holy God.
The day when the Lord will finish the work which He, Who is Love Itself, began is not far from now so that the groundless rumors and the bloody pains of double deaths that my beloved daughter, a little soul specially called, has been suffering until now may not be fruitless.
Your sighs and tears during your persecution while you were making known this Mother, who is the Mediatrix of Grace and the Co-Redemptrix, will soon turn into joy, and those who have been opposing you will close their mouths and repent. Therefore, do not worry but go forward courageously, following me with the dignity of the persons who have been saved and transcend (the world and the ego).

Pope's attacker to star in a movie

Mehmet Ali Agca shoots the Pope and now is going to star in a movie. Apparently the movie will explain why he did this? We will see if any mention of KGB or communist plot.

House of the Virgin Mary?

From Kusadasi:


The belief that the Virgin Mary had spent her last days in the vicinity of Ephesus and that she had died there, focused attention on a nun named Anna Katherina Emmerich who had livid in the late 18th century (1774-1820). The efforts to find the house were greatly influenced by her detailed description of the Virgin Mary's coming to Ephesus, her life and her last home there and the characteristics of the city although she had never been to Ephesus. In 1811, Emmerich, who had dedicated her life to God, was taken ill in the nunnery and had to keep her bed. She was hearing voices no one else did, and was having religious visions. On 29 December 1812, as Emmerich was praying in her bed with her hands stretched out, she was suddenly shaken by a divine force; and seized by a high fever, she became deep red in the face. Just at that moment, a bright light coming from above descended towards her and when it reached her the hands and the feet of the sick woman were suddenly covered with blood as if pierced by nails. The people around the bed were stunned with amazement. It was as if she had partaken of Christs agony during the Crucifixion and had become a stigmatized nun. The doctors examining her were greatly astonished. They could not explain this within the science of medicine. A writer named C. Brentano began putting into writing the narrations that Emmerich, who getting gradually worse had become bedridden, revealed in trance after loosing consciousness in 1811.
Emmerich had seen in her visions the Virgin Mary leaving Jerusalem with St.John before the persecution of Christians had become worse and their coming to Ephesus; she had also seen that the house in Ephesus was on a mountain nearby and that the Christians who had settled there before lived in tents and caves. She said furthermore that the house of the Virgin Mary, a stone house, was built by St.John, that it was rectangular in plan with a round back wall and had an apse and a hearth. The room next to the apse was her bedroom and there was a stream of water running it. Emmerich went on as follows:
"?After completing her third year here she had a great desire to go to Jerusalem. John and Peter took her there. She was taken so ill and lost so much weight in Jerusalem that everybody thought she was going to die and they began preparing a grave for her. When the grave was finished the Virgin Mary recovered. She was feeling strong enough to return to Ephesus. After returning to Ephesus the Virgin Mary became very weak and at 64 years of age she died. The saints around her performed a funeral ceremony for her and put the coffin they had specially prepared into a cave about two kilometers away from the house?".
Emmerich narrated that at this point in her vision St.Thomas coming there after the death of the Virgin Mary cried with sorrow because he had not been able to arrive in time. Whereupon his friends not wanting to hurt his feelings took him to the cave. And she went on:
" When they came to the cave they prostrated themselves. Thomas and his friends walked impatiently to the door. St.John followed them. Two of them went inside after removing the bushes at the entrance of the cave and they kneeled down in front of the grave. John neared the coffin of which a part was protruding from the grave and unlacing its ties he opened the lid. When they all approached the coffin they were stunned in amazement: Mary's corpse was not in the shroud. But the shroud had remained intact. After this event the mouth of the cave containing the grave was closed and the house was turned into a chapel."
A French clergyman named Gouyet who after reading in 1880 C.Brentano's book " The Life of the Virgin Mary" containing the revelations of Anna Katherina Emmerich tried to prove these by his writings but was not successful. Gouyet dedided to go Ephesus to see whether the house mentioned as beloning to the Virgin Mary fitted the description in the book or not. Monseigneur Timoni, the archbishop of Izmir of the time, supported him in his idea and gave him a helper. After a journey free from problems in contrast to his expectations, Gouyet saw the house, believed that it belonged to the Virgin Mary and sent his related report to Bishopric authorities of Paris and even to Rome, but he did not receive the attention he had expected.
About ten years after this event, H.Jung, a Lazarist priest who had read in Anna Katherina Emmerich's book the chapters relating to the life and death of Virgin Mary in Ephesus, decided that it would be useful to see the house in its place. With the encouragement of Sister Marie de Mandat Grancey, the handnurse of the French Hospital of Izmir, he organized a second research team with the collaboration of Eugene Poulin, a Lazarist priest who was the director of the French College of Izmir and who had studied Emmerich's book. The team consisting of two preists and two Catholic functionaries set out on 27 June 1891. The team successfully found the House of Virgin Mary, they had discovered a small place of workship with the roof fallen in and the walls in ruin standing a statue of the Virgin Mary with the hands broken off. Nowhere else in the region was there a scene fitting the description as perfectly as this one did. They returned to Izmir. The priest E.Poulin, although he did not quite believe the narrative of his colleague Jung, decided to go to Ephesus to see out on the journey and on his return he let work begin for the necessary scientific research. With four friends he went up the Bulbul mountain again they took various photographs pf the place for a week. Meanwhile, the archbishop of Izmir Monseignor Timoni showed interest in the matter. He organized a team consisting of seven priests and five specialists. This team went up to the house of the Virgin Mary in December 1892 and substantiated the situation by a duly signed document ( History of Panaya Kapulu).
After the priest Jung set out on his first expedition, Sister Marie de Mandat Grancey exerted herself for nearly ten months to obtain the right of possession of his land and tried in her own capacity to repair the building and arrange the surrounding area. The restoration and other works continued until 1894. A shelter for visitors was built as an annex to the building. This place of pilgrimage visited by thousands of tourists every year, maintains its holiness for the Moslems as well as for the Christian world. People believing in the godly qualities of the Virgin Mary came here and drinking from the water believed to be sacred they make wishes in the mystic and quite atmosphere of Mount Aladag.

When We Have Excuses

When we find ourselves saying "I can't do that" or " I don't have any time" take a look at this article. No excuses now from those who tell me that they don't have time or can't do it with regards to the freedom of Cuba. This goes for anything in life myself included.
