Wars are a punishment for man's sins...

June 18, 1975
Fifth Anniversary of Our Lady's Apparitions at Bayside

Veronica - I've been awaiting the blue lights of Our Lady. Instead, the sky is all cast in red—a deep pink, almost a red. Oh, now there is a light appearing just ahead of us in the sky, and letters are forming in the sky: "WAR": W-A-R.

I hear a booming voice. I recognize it as Michael's voice. I've heard it quite often.

St. Michael - "Yes, my child, man has sown the seeds for his destruction. Wars are a punishment for man's sins.

"The Eternal Father has waited, with His merciful heart extended to an errant generation, to no avail. Hearts have been hardened, ears are closed to the pleas from Heaven. The sheep shall be separated from the goats.

"We send from the Eternal Kingdom of the Lord high God in Heaven a warning to mankind. A great War will be soon upon you, claiming many lives throughout your earth. You will prepare yourselves and the souls of those you love.

"Your country has fallen to satan. Many countries throughout your world have given themselves to satan. The leaders in your country need many prayers.

"The heads of all households—mothers, fathers will bend your knee now in prayer with your children. You must now appear to your God with a humble heart, do penance, make atonement and many sacrifices.

"I come to you—I, Michael, as a guardian of your Faith.

"My God, I believe, I adore, I trust, and I love Thee. I do penance for all those who do not believe, do not adore, do not trust, and do not love Thee.

"I say unto you, a degenerate generation, that you shall reap the reward of your immorality, your licentious conduct, and your leading astray the young souls in your care!

"I, Michael, send my voice to you for the Mediatrix between God and man—your Mother, the Queen of Heaven. You must make amends to your God, for you have offended Him much!"

Veronica - Now I see Michael. He's moving backwards, up into the sky. It's quite windy. He has on a long robe now. He's dressed quite differently than I've seen him before. He has on a long white robe that's caught about his waist with a belt.

Now Michael, I just noticed he has in his right hand a balance. It's like a scale, and I notice it's heavily leaning to the left. And Michael also has in his left hand a spear, but the spear has in the center of it, near his hand, what appears to be a cross-bow, a bow. And now Michael is going back farther into the sky. And there's a bright light now appearing right at the left side of Michael, our right side.

And now a huge, illuminated white cross is in the sky. The cross is becoming brighter around the center. It's like a monstrance now, a huge bright, white monstrance. And coming out of the center—oh, it's Jesus! Oh!

Oh, Jesus is coming forward now. And Michael now is coming back down from behind Him, and he's standing just at Jesus' right side now.

Jesus - "My child, the guardian of My houses throughout your world has spoken well. The Message from Heaven must be given to all mankind. Throughout your world, We have sent many with the message. Many voice-boxes shall cry out for penance.

"Man holds the balance for his own chastisement. The sins of the flesh are sending many into the abyss.

"You must turn away from the ways of the world, the ways of materialism, My children, for you are going fast into darkness of the spirit. You must reject the light set forth by satan to ensnare you and capture your eternal soul. You must now retire from your world, earth, and do much penance in the time left to you.

"A great Warning shall be set upon mankind and then the ultimate Chastisement, for many will die in the great flame of the Ball of Redemption.

"It grieves My heart much to watch the manner in which man has rejected My Mother upon earth. I have sent Her to you as your Mother, as My Mother, the Queen of Heaven and earth, to direct you in your battle against the forces of evil. Without Her guidance you will not stay on the road to Heaven.

"My words must reach those who are leaders in My houses upon earth—churches. We watch and find many of Our leaders lacking in true spirit of faith. Many are misleading Our sheep.

"The ways of modernism and humanism are the ways of satan! You have been warned in the past, and you are being warned now. You are leading your lives in error. A great delusion has been set upon mankind to test Our sheep. All that is rotten will fall to satan!

"A House in darkness, a Church in darkness wears a band of death about it.

"Our Vicar, your Holy Father, is suffering, My child. Many about him have sold their souls to get to the head, caring more for the pleasures and reaping the treasures of the world of man than finding the treasures of the spirit of God. No man can bargain between the eternal Kingdom and satan, the ruler of darkness and lies.

"Awaken, My clergy, from your slumber! Many are being misled.

"My child, you will make no unnecessary trips at this time. I have cautioned you in the past to remain in a life of seclusion for your safety and the propagation of My Mother's mission.

"The forces of evil will not slacken in their fight against you, My child. You must expect much persecution, for the agents of darkness are set with hardened hearts. And the light—My child, it is difficult to pierce with the light the hearts that are hardened.

"Your major weapon will be prayers and penance. Many can only be retrieved, My child, by prayers and sacrifice. Speak once to them, and if not hastened, My child, speak no more, but keep it in your heart that it may not be of his decision.

"A simple lesson has been given to you in the past, My child. You will pray for those who castigate you. Pray for those who have made themselves enemies of your household. Even they may be returned in the light of grace.

"It is easy, My child, to love those who extend their warm hearts to you, but it is a great virtue to love those who have closed their heart to you.

"Keep pure and holy thoughts in your mind at all times. The eyes are the mirror of the soul. Therefore, My child, make it known to mankind that satan has set much before the eyes of mankind to deceive and degrade his good nature. He will subject mankind, through visual aids from satan, to degeneracy and to the ruination of the light within his soul. Newspapers of the enemies of God, magazines of obscenity! Ways of recreation and entertainment, My child, must be cleansed. The medias have all now been given to satan in your country and most of the nations on your earth.

"Recognize the faces of evil about you. They come to you as angels of light with ravenous hearts.

"Pray much, My child, for your clergy. It is better to remain silent in the face of criticism. You have no reason, no need to defend yourself before them. No man is above the Eternal Father. Know that in this manner He will settle all scores, My child. Your means as a human being is limited, so you must depend heavily upon the Eternal Father to guide you.

"Pray much to your angels. You must understand, My child, they have been sent to you for reason. Tusazeri is always at your side.

"Just as the agents of darkness, satan and his agents, do not sleep—there is no time, My child, in Heaven. You can call upon Us at any time.

"I do not expect that you would understand My words, My child. There is much in Heaven that is sacred, and were it to be revealed to you, it would no longer be a mystery and sacred. All this you will know in time when you pass over the veil.

"The knowledge of the supernatural, My child, has been taken from the hearts of mankind. Mankind must understand there is no death. Life goes on over the veil. However, your destiny is in the hands of the Father Eternal.

"You, on your pilgrimage throughout your lifetime on earth, must work, My children, to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. You must pray and work. They are hand in hand a benefit to your spirit.

"Your works must include good heart to others. If you care, My child, you will understand and not have to force any of your actions, for they will come to you spontaneously.

"I bless you, My child: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Continue now with your prayers of atonement.

"My Mother shall visit you very shortly, and I know, My child, this will gladden your heart."

[Pause]

Veronica - Our Lady now is coming forward. The light is very bright. I have a difficult time seeing the top of Our Lady's head, because She has on a most beautiful crown. Now the crown has covered the whole front of Her head. It's very heavy. There's the most beautiful colored stones—oh, I never saw colors like these. I can't call them a blue, or even a green, or purple. It's a mixture of colors that are so beautiful! Oh!

Our Lady is smiling now. She's coming forward. And Our Lady is dressed all in white. The white is very brilliant, and the light makes it so bright that I can barely look into the circle of light about Our Lady. And She has on the cape about Her. It's like a cloak about Her hair. It has a trim of gold, a beautiful, brilliant gold trim of about ... I would measure it about an inch wide along the border. And Our Lady also has about Her waist a band, and it also is a golden color, the tie about Her waist.

And now Our Lady has upon Her feet golden slippers, but they're sandals. And I can see Her feet; they're just about bare. The sandal is held on by a golden strap. Oh, it's a very, very beautiful color gold. Oh!

Now Our Lady is extending Her hands. Oh, in Her right hand She's holding out Her Rosary, and in Her left hand Our Lady has a very large Scapular. It has no picture upon it. It's a very large Scapular. Oh, She's turning it over. There is a picture. It has Jesus, the Baby Jesus, and Our Lady upon the Scapular.

Now Our Lady is talking very softly. Oh! Oh, it's so soft, like—it's almost like the rustling of the trees.

Our Lady - "My child, these are the sacramentals I have given to mankind for their salvation. Many have cast them aside, for they do not accept the supernatural. Know, My child, that you cannot wear enough armor to guard your eternal soul against the forces of evil that are set loose now upon your world. Satan has control of your world. However, Our armies are banding to do him great battle.

"Won't you join Us, My children, in this fight against the forces of evil? Come, light your candles with Me and search throughout the world for your brothers and sisters who have fallen away from the light."

Veronica - Now Our Lady is extending Her hand over. She has a very large Rosary. Oh, it's the Rosary, the white Rosary with the golden Our Father. And Our Lady is placing it in front of Her, like this, and making the sign of the cross: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Now Our Lady is turning and She's also blessing to the right: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Now Our Lady is going over, and—oh, Jesus is coming down now beside Our Lady, and He's smiling. And Our Lady is coming over by the tree on the right, and She's leaning down and extending Her Rosary cross out, like this, and making the sign of the cross: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Now Jesus is coming forward. Oh, you'll have to kneel. All who can, please kneel.

Oh, Jesus is coming over, and Our Lady is right behind Him.

"I'm so happy to see You! Oh!"

Jesus now is placing His robe—He has on a deep burgundy-colored robe, and He's placing it over His left arm. And He's extending His hand out, like this. I can see His fingers; they're like this. And He's making the sign of the cross: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Now Jesus is moving over to our left side. And He's looking down now and He's placing His hand out, like this: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

And now He's going over ... He's going over—He's floating. He doesn't walk, He just—He's gliding right through the air. And Our Lady is now with Him.

And Michael is coming down now. He just came from out of nowhere. I don't know what direction Michael came from; I wasn't watching. But he's now joined Our Lady. He's behind Our Lady.

And now Jesus is placing His hand out, and He's facing over to the right and making the sign of the cross: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Jesus - "I bless you, My children, with an abundance of graces: graces for cure and graces for conversion. Know that the work of My Mother will go throughout your world without cessation. No man is above the Eternal Father.

"In the time left before your chastisement, which will come as an eventuality, you will spend your time now in gathering your prayers and graces for those who do not have the strength of spirit to acquire these graces for their own salvation."

Veronica - In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Jesus - "When you make your supplications to Heaven, My children, you must not make it a tedious task of the lips. You will pray with your heart, thusly:

[Veronica recites very slowly and deliberately:]

Our Father Who art in Heaven, hallowed by Thy name; Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil. Amen.

"All prayers must come not from the lips but from the heart. Do not rush your supplications, for I assure you, My children, there is no time beyond the veil. The time you give now for the salvation of your soul and the souls for whom you love and pray will be gathered beyond the veil, and your joy will be two-fold when you meet and rejoice in the Kingdom of Heaven together."

Veronica - In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.

Jesus - "Continue, now, My children, with your prayers of atonement. They are sorely needed. The time is growing short. Mankind will go through a great crucible of suffering. This cleansing will be allowed by the Eternal Father to gather Our straying sheep."

Veronica - In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

"My children, My little humble children, I appeal to you as your Mother, go forward on foot, knock on the doors; bring the light to your brothers and sisters. For those who have been given great grace, much is expected of them." - Our Lady of the Roses, May 26, 1976

"As disciples of the latter days, My children, much shall be asked of you, but I assure you: all that you give in faith and charity shall be returned to you threefold." - Jesus, June 1, 1978
