Directive from Heaven #161 - The Great Apostasy given to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#161 - The Great Apostasy

"And we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our gathering together unto Him: that you be not easily moved from your sense, nor be terrified, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by epistle, as sent from us, as if the day of the Lord were at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means, for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposeth, and is lifted up above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself as if he were God.” - 2 Thessalonians 2: 1-4

HERESY, APOSTASY ABOUND
"Because of the arrogance and pride of My clergy, many of Our sheep, Our children, are lost to the Kingdom of Heaven. Many mitres are destined for the abyss. Heresy and apostasy abounds upon earth. My child, repeat the full story:
The end is not as far as you can see;
Already there is apostasy.
Man cast his lot and gathered the coals
To stoke the fire that burns the souls.
The days are numbered, the hours are few;
So work and pray and try to do
The mission that's given in the light,
Until that sad day when all becomes night." - Jesus, June 18, 1979

THE GREAT APOSTASY
"Do not accept the fallacy that any man upon earth and mankind are gods. There is but one God. And no man shall set himself above his Master. O My children, cannot you recognize the signs of your times? The great apostasy is upon you!" - Our Lady, December 7, 1976

USING RANK TO DESTROY
"Those who have the highest places in My Son's Church are now using their rank to destroy the truth. You cannot build on the carnal nature of mankind, the fallen nature of mankind.
"You must now, My children, read the direction given you by Saint John. He was given the prophecy of your times. You are in those days, My children, the days of apostasy." - Our Lady, October 6, 1975

THE SWORD
"Mankind shall feel a sword upon his world. The Eternal Father has endured your apostasy, your arrogance, your heresy much too long! As an errant and ungrateful generation given to sin and abominations of the flesh, you shall be forced to your knees by trial." - St. Michael, July 15, 1975

TRAITORS
O ye of little faith, pride and arrogance in worldly knowledge! But you have closed the door to My sheep! Scattered them, become traitors to the Seat of Peter! I say unto you: You cannot understand, with all of your knowledge and your pride, the ways of the Eternal Father! There is a plan for each and every one of you in Heaven. You shall receive a just punishment for your arrogance, your apostasy, and your destruction of souls." - Jesus, October 6, 1978

UNHOLINESS, PAGANISM, IMPURITY
"For I say unto you now, all bishops and cardinals, all that is rotten will fall. You consort with the enemies of your God for money and power, and they are waiting to pick your bones clean. You will not bring about a conversion of those who are presently apostate by compromising your Faith or changing the construction of the exterior lines of My Church; and by that I mean the physical appearance and the manner in which you conduct the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
"Many are giving My Body in a manner that can only be called blasphemy. Many are accepting My Body in the Eucharist in a manner that defames the Divinity, and also promotes unholiness, paganism, and impurity of heart and actions during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass." - Jesus, May 26, 1979

TURNED AWAY
"Parents, protect your homes and your children. Give them a firm foundation of faith, for there will be many tears and gnashing of teeth in woe set upon the world by the agents of hell. Many catastrophes of nature, accidents that are not accidents, murders, robberies, fornication, immorality, and apostasy. These, My children, are the fruits of a generation that has turned away from their God." - Jesus, June 10, 1978

MUCH DISCORD
"Do you understand Me, My children? I ask you not to abandon My Son's Church in the crisis of Faith* now, but to keep the Bark of Peter afloat. I ask you not to remain silent when you meet with wrongdoing, but to speak out and act to correct a situation that is offensive to your God and destructive to your soul." - Our Lady, November 20, 1979

* "We are at a moment of a crisis of the Faith, a crisis which has repercussions indeed on other domains, on our whole religious, moral and social life." (Pope Paul VI, Discourse of June 29, 1971, Documentation catholique, 1971, col. 706).

STAY AND FIGHT
"My children, you will all recognize the faces of evil. Satan has entered into the highest ranks of My Church. Pray now for your priests: your bishops, your cardinals, your clergy. Many prayers are needed, for many are on, now, the road to perdition and taking many others with them.
"My children, do not cast aside your sacramentals. They are your armor in the days ahead. Do not desert My Church. Do not ignore it by the man who has stood there in ignorance or in pride and changed it until it will almost be unrecognizable. I am still with you, My children. Do not leave. You must stay and fight. In this manner, My children, shall the sheep be separated from the goats. It is a form of cleansing." - Jesus, July 15, 1977

THE HIGHEST PLACES
"Go forward, My child, now, and bring this message to the world: satan has entered into the House of God. He rules now from the highest places. The world and the Church of God is in deep darkness. Those who are in command—many have fallen away. Pray, My children, much, for with your prayers and sacrifices they, too, can be recovered." - Our Lady, April 13, 1974

CAPTURED
"But, My children, as I said in the past, I repeat again, that satan and his agents, the band of 666, has entered into the highest places of the hierarchy; and therefore he has captured some of Our formerly noble hierarchy to do his bidding." - Our Lady, June 1, 1978

REAL THIRD SECRET
"My child, they converse of the secret that I gave at Fatima. It is a simple explanation. It could not be fully revealed because of the drastic nature of My message. How I warned and warned that satan would enter into the highest realms of the hierarchy in Rome. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter into My Son's Church." - Our Lady, May 13, 1978

APOSTATES
"As My Son was forced to cast out of the temple thieves, so shall He come among you and cast you, O pastors, fling you from without His House! O ye of little faith, you are burrowing like rodents into the foundations of My Son's Church! You run to and fro, crying peace, love, and brotherhood! There shall be no peace, or love, or brotherhood without Faith and Tradition and Truth! And you seek to separate Faith from Tradition. And what have you but lukewarm souls and apostates!" - Our Lady, October 2, 1976

THE BATTLE RAGES
"The true Church of Jesus in Rome is being attacked by the forces of 666. It is a world-wide involvement that cannot be fully described at this time. It is a diabolical involvement that will be made fully known with the Second Coming of Jesus.
"The battle rages now, and all who have given themselves to the world will not understand, for they are of the world. And many now have adopted and accepted a new father—not the Eternal Father in Heaven, but the father of all liars, satan. All who do not recognize Jesus as the Christ is the Antichrist. Learn by this!
"The clergy who have given themselves over to errors and are misled, and some of great determination to destroy My Son's Church—why? Because they have lost the Faith. Pray, pray much for your clergy, My children. Without your prayers, many mitres shall fall into hell." - Our Lady, April 17, 1976

BRINK OF DESTRUCTION
"My child and My children, My Mother has counseled you well on the state of affairs taking place upon your earth at this time. Needless to say, your world is in deep darkness of spirit. The evil has accelerated much faster than man can ever assume because of the loss of faith.
"My heart has been torn as I watch mankind wallowing in filth in the name of progress and modernism. He is now, man, standing on the brink of his destruction." - Jesus, February 1, 1978

REMAIN WITHIN THE FOLD
“My children, do you who have left the road and entered into apostate religions, do you not realize that you have renounced your chance to enter into the Kingdom of your God, Heaven? My children, all who are baptized by the waters of life must remain within the fold!” - Our Lady, September 28, 1978

TURN BACK
"Turn back, My children, My sleeping pastors, turn back and recover My sheep, for you have scattered My flock. You who have been given the grace in vocation to guide and be leaders to Our sheep have scattered them, because you no longer know the true meaning of dedication, purpose, and faith. The Faith, My children, has been dimmed, and much of the responsibility for this loss of faith I place, as your God, upon Our pastors.
"No man shall take it upon himself to change the laws, the commands of your God to satisfy the mere carnal nature of mankind. I implore you, as a merciful voice from Heaven, to turn back and restore My Church. I implore you, as your God, with full knowledge of the punishment that is planned for the redemption of a generation that has fallen to satan.
"O My children, your earth, your world now is a cesspool of sin, error, and corruption. Take yourselves and your children away from these errors; seek and remain with the truth and the light. And what is truth, My children? It is a simple rule of learning. The way was given to you and you have lost it." - Jesus, September 7, 1976

THE LATTER DAYS
"My child, modernism promoted heresy; heresy promotes satan. It is because of the sins of man that this time has come upon your world. You are all now living in the latter days, My children. Many shall carry a heavy cross in the days ahead. The good shall be persecuted. Lovers of evil shall glorify those who dwell in evil." - Our Lady, November 1, 1977

DESTROYING YOUR FAITH
"As I warned you in the past and you did not listen, unless you prayed more, did more penance, sacrifice, communism would go throughout your world, ravishing nations, destroying your Faith, entering into the highest places of My Son's House. Can you deny what is happening now in your world? Remove the blindness from your eyes and look!" - Our Lady, March 18, 1977

TO DECEIVE THE NATIONS
"There is a plan to deceive the nations. A delusion is allowed by the Father. This is the delusion that you accept upon earth that casts the darkness into the souls of mankind. This delusion I can give you, My child, in few words. It is a delusion evolved from humanism, brotherhood, modernism, all covered by the evils of satan. Deception upon deception. O heresy, mournful heresy! Whatever shall become of you? Why have you cast aside the truth?" - Our Lady, April 13, 1974
