Directive from Heaven #721 - Laxity of Parents - given to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#721 - Laxity of Parents

"But he that shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be drowned in the depth of the sea." - St. Matthew 18:6

VICTIMS OF YOUR LAXITY
“My children, your children, parents, are the victims now of your laxity. They are the victims of their elders. All foul manner of acts are being taught them in their schools, in their secret societies. And why? Because you as parents are too lax in your duty. You flitter to and fro looking for pleasures and gathering the materials of your world. And for what? For I shall soon make them as naught, nothing." – Our Lady, November 1, 1977

MAJOR MARTYRS
“My children, do not allow the enemies to take from you the knowledge of the existence of Heaven, hell, and purgatory. Your children are the major, now, the major martyrs--and I say martyrs. Be it not for the laxity of the parents, the schools, and many in My Son's Church, many of you parents would not be shedding this evening tears of remorse and grief at the loss of your children, knowing not whether they have been saved or lost forever. I say unto you, from the merciful heart of your Mother: Cry not, mother. The Eternal Father is most pitiful upon you. He has opened His heart to many of your children, not judging them by false leaders." – Our Lady, November 25, 1978

DO NOT FALL DOWN
“Do not fall down in your job as a parent, for you will also be held responsible for the condition of your children’s souls when they are brought to Us.” - Our Lady, February 11, 1971

FATHERS, STAND FORTH
"I wish that all fathers of households stand forth and practice their role. They will use the rod and not permit their children to go astray. Firmness is needed in your world that is filled with laxity, permissiveness, and degradation.
"Your children have been misled by many who shall answer to the Father. As teachers they have failed in their role. Therefore, as parents you must succeed in yours.” - St. Joseph, March 18, 1973

SUPERVISE TEACHING
"Parents must have firm discipline in the home. Parents must supervise the teaching of their children." – Our Lady, August 5, 1977

MANY PARENTS HAVE LOST THEIR WAY
"I ask you now, can you not turn from your ways of despoilment? Your children are suffering as they are left to roam, to make their own decisions without the guidance of the family.
"My child and My children, please, the Ball of Redemption shall be sent upon mankind if he does not heed the measures that I have given you tonight to save your country and other countries of the world. Little children are left to roam, to make their own decisions while the parents go merrily on their way, not thinking of the souls that they had to guide. Many parents have now lost their way. They have become embroiled with mankind and not God.
"Parents, teach your children the words of the Bible. Make the Bible a necessary book in your home, not something that may be given to you as a gift by mankind, but as a gift from the Eternal Father. Read this book to your children. They are thirsting for the knowledge from God. Only you as parents can save them." - Our Lady, June 18, 1994

CHILDREN CONDITIONED TO HATE
"There is no love left in the hearts of your children. They are being conditioned to hate, to destroy. All parents must look now into the days that lie before you. You will see how your children will turn upon you. Yes, you will receive and reap the products of your laxity." - Our Lady, September 7, 1971

DISCIPLINE THEM
"Parents, go forward with your Rosary and your Bible. Admonish your children with heart; discipline them for the salvation of their souls. Permissiveness allows them to come face to face with evil. A child must be guided by a strong hand and heart." - Jesus, June 18, 1977

WORLDLY PURSUITS
"I repeat to you now: all parents will be held responsible for the fall of their children's souls. Give them a good foundation, and when they are subjected to the storms of evil, they will not crack and crumble under the onslaught.
"Permissiveness, My children, is destroying you--laxity of discipline, parents who involve themselves with things of this world. What has become of the dedication? What has become of the laws given to you by Our prophets? They are thrust aside. They have been changed to suit the weakness of man. How long do you think I can hold back My Son's hand? We see the vilest of evils being committed in your country and throughout your earth--the lowest of abominations, the desecration of My Son's Body, the desecration of young souls." - Our Lady, March 25, 1972

LED ASTRAY
“Prayer, My children, is all that you have now. You have waited too long. The evil has accelerated now, and your children are surely the victims of your laxity, your permissiveness. You condoned immorality. You condoned sexuality. You made no effort to fight the evils that have corrupted your schools and your governments, and now your homes.
“Parents, who are parents, have not been an example to their children, and have led them astray.” – Our Lady, August 13, 1977

PAGANISM
“Your country and many countries upon earth have given themselves over to paganism, and pursuing this course has now taken the young down the path to abomination. Your children are now victims, for they have entered into a form of idol worship. Your children are victims now, because they have not been given a foundation of their Faith. The laxity falls upon the parents, because through countless years of My wandering upon earth I counseled you, I directed you, I warned you to watch your children, to safeguard their souls from the evil that has entered now into all of the medias of your world.
“My children, parents, I have counseled you to safeguard your homes, to make your home a fortress against the evil forces that now rage in your world. Man of perdition, these dark forces from hell, are now doing full battle in My Son’s Church and in your world.” – Our Lady, November 19, 1977

REMOVE DIABOLICAL BOOKS FROM SCHOOLS
"The catechisms, My children--We find abominations, lies, and sinfulness abounding in these books. Your children, their minds are being corrupted and destroyed. The eyes are the mirror of the soul.
"Each parent has an obligation to his children to remove these diabolical books from his school. The laxity of parents, the apathy of those who have influence . . . O My children, tears shall be shed; there will be gnashing of teeth soon! I ask you, I plead to you as your Mother to prepare your household now." - Our Lady, May 29, 1976

GREATEST MEASURE OF RESPONSIBILITY
"Your country and many parts of the earth are contaminated with filth. The evil has come and implanted unfruitful seed in the souls of the youth. We hold responsible--the greatest measure of responsibility will be given to the parents. The permissive behavior and laxity of the parents will provide the measure for their own judgment." - Our Lady, September 14, 1972

LAXITY OF PARENTS
"This situation would not have occurred if satan had not entered upon the medias of your life. The corruption within your homes, the corruption within your schools, the laxity of parents in guarding the lives, the souls of their children--all this has come about because of the sins of mankind. Riots in your streets will become commonplace, My children, when the enemies of God bring about your complete fall. Only prayer, sacrifice, and atonement can save you, My children." - Our Lady, April 5, 1975

THE TRUST OF THIS FRAGILE FLOWER
"Each soul placed upon the earth, My child, is a flower that must be nourished with pure waters so that the stem may grow and be strong and the flower face of the child shall be turned upward to receive the light. We give to each parent the trust of this fragile flower, the child.
"We are much grieved in Heaven to view the abominations being committed in many homes. The darkness has set into many homes. All parents must open their hearts and look into their homes objectively. Have you set your house in order? Have you brought the knowledge of your God to your children? Have you cast out of your home the abomination placed there by satan--the box of evil, your television? The books of degradation and perversion--pornography? Yes, My child, do not be startled. Many parents read these abominable books and set a bad example to their children." - Our Lady, December 28, 1974

"THE CHANCE AND THE TIME TO RIGHT THE WRONG"
"Your city and all of the cities of your nation and the countries of the world will receive a scourging through their children because of the laxity exercised by parents in safeguarding the morals of their children's souls.
"The state of the world at the present time has called down upon it a punishment that has been abated for a short time by the acts and sufferings of those who have given themselves as victim souls to the merciful heart of the Father. There are many, My child and My children, in the world who care for their fellow human beings. There are many who will fight to the bitter end in bringing justice to the world, in keeping the light of faith burning in the hearts of the children that can be reached by them.
"Parents, you have now the chance and the time to right the wrong that has been done to your children. Can you in all sincerity and honesty say that you have been guiltless in the fall of your children? O parents, great suffering has been given to many, and much suffering will still be experienced in your world." - Our Lady, September 28, 1977

FORCES OF EVIL SOLIDLY ENTRENCHED IN GOVERNMENT
"Parents, you cannot now expect your leaders in government--city, state, or national, to protect your children, for the forces of evil are solidly entrenched now in your government. Your medias of communication are controlled. Each and every parent must assume now full responsibility for the salvation of their children's souls.
"Those who call themselves pastors in My Son's Church upon earth have given themselves over to worldly pursuits and living, while they scatter Our sheep.” – Our Lady, February 1, 1978

HAVE YOU PREPARED YOUR HOUSEHOLD WELL?
"As I have wandered through countless earth-years warning My children, I say to you as your Mother: have you prepared your household well? Protect your children. Do not abandon the sacramentals. Soon you all will understand the great treasures of comfort, safety, and spiritual holiness that have been given to you in these sacramentals.” – Our Lady, November 20, 1979

GUARD HOMES AGAINST INFILTRATION OF EVIL
"You must restore My Church upon earth. I ask you as light bearers, to make every effort to retain the truth in knowledge of My existence in the Trinity.
"You will protect your children. The forces of evil are now loosed fully upon your earth. Guard your homes against infiltration of evil.” – Jesus, May 30, 1977

SHALL NOT BE PERMITTED
"O My child and My children, if I could take you step by step, you would die of fear and of horror if you could look behind the closed doors and see what is happening to your children. Many now are being trained as adults with a knowledge that cannot be absorbed into their young minds. Therefore, they become victims of their elders.
"How long shall this be permitted by the Eternal Father? My children, not very long." - Our Lady, March 18, 1983

WOE TO THE PASTORS
"My children, can I bring you a message of joy when My heart is torn by the murders and the loss of respect for your elders? Children against parents, parents going about, running to and fro, marrying and giving in marriage, living adulterously, consorting with evil, with homosexuals and lesbians! What manner of life do you show for your children to make example of? Woe to the parent that scandalizes his child. It is better if that parent had died in his mother's womb! Woe to the pastors that scandalize the children! They shall burn in an eternity of hell for their deception!" - Our Lady, August 5, 1977

ABOMINATIONS
"Now I speak to the parents. Parents of all young children, are you earnestly making an effort to protect your children from a world that has been given over to satan? What do you do when the teachers in your schools teach your children sexual conduct, taking from your young children the purity of heart and the innocence of the youth? What do you do? Just let them take over? Parents, you say it will not affect your child? Look what is happening to the children of the world, young of age, three years old and upward, even younger than three.
"I cannot upon these holy grounds use the words given in print for all of these abominations being committed to the young child. But, My children, I tell you: it is happening. To those who do have good heart and a right mind, they feel as though the world has gone--shall I use the word, My child, 'crazy'? Yes, I will use the word 'crazy,' My child, insanity, too. My Mother has always told you that sin is insanity.” – Jesus, November 1, 1985

MISSING CHILDREN
"The children, the innocent children, are victims of debauchery. The children--many of them shall die. We shall set upon your nation, and other nations of the world, a mysterious disease. But be it known now: It will not be a mysterious disease but the hand of the Eternal Father placed down to remove these innocent souls before they are sent into debauchery. O My children, the missing children in your countries are not just missing because they want to be adopted, or others wished to take them into their homes as children to be loved. They are being taken to be used in all foul manners." - Our Lady, June 30, 1984

A DEBAUCHERY OF YOUNG SOULS
"A foul situation has come about in the schools, both public and private. They are now teaching sex education, My children. And this is a debauchery of your young souls. Parents, are you so blind that you do not investigate, or ask your children what has happened in their classes today at school? Show you no interest as you go about the world gathering materialism, and seeking to break your home apart by husband and wife going in both directions; neither do they work together to hold the home together, but they work apart, many leaving the children astray by not having counsel over them."
"My child and My children, I tell you now: All that I have told you in the past will come to pass. There will be great punishments set upon earth. The United States and Canada shall not escape. They have been actually sentenced by the Eternal Father to many calamities that will befall them very shortly. The Father in Heaven feels in this manner shall they bring many back to the fold. It is not an angry God Who speaks to you, My children, but a sorrowful One. All of our hearts in Heaven, and the hearts of the saints, are saddened at what is to come upon mankind.” – Our Lady, September 27, 1986

OBLIGATION OF PARENTS
"My child, I do not wish to burden you any longer with the miseries upon earth. I wish to talk only a while, a little bit, about the children of earth, the young children. The parents must be very careful, My children, who you send your children to be taught from. Much evil is being developed in the schools in the name of sexuality. Why cannot we have our children pure of thought and mind? How can we, My children, when the teachers there are being taught to bring in sex education to your children? This belongs not in the schools, but in the homes. This is an obligation of the parents. It will only lead to much greater disaster by having this sex education in the school system." – Jesus, October 2, 1987

FIRM EFFORT
"The parents of earth must make a firm effort to safeguard their children by giving stern direction, if necessary, and not be permissive in the rearing of their children. Do not allow your children to rule you, but set a good example and use a firm discipline. The children are the victims of their elders, for the example of the elders is poor.
"The young children must be taken by their parents to the temples, the houses of My Son throughout your world. They must learn by habit a good example of cleansing of their soul by Confession. The good priests of earth, those who have been dedicated and received this consecration from My Son, must take these tender souls and nurture them in their Faith.” - Our Lady, November 20, 1975

MORTAL SIN IS A GRIEVOUS OFFENSE
"Permissiveness shall not be accepted by your God. Sin is sin; there is no compromise for sin. Mortal sin is a grievous offense to the Eternal Father. The commandments shall be followed without permissiveness.
"My children, We are not stern in Our discipline, but We are factual. There is a measure of discipline that must be used to train the young, and it is habit that they learn. Over and over must you retain the Faith by repetition." - Jesus, November 21, 1977

GUARD THE ONES YOU LOVE
"Each family that wishes to be saved must now retire as a family unit from the world which has now been given to satan. Guard the souls of the ones you love. Satan sends his agents among you with cunning. You must always watch. Many parents are leading their children on the road to damnation by their example, by their permissiveness, and by their laxity." - Our Lady, July 15, 1972

OBSESSED WITH IMMODESTY AND FILTH
"My Mother and the saints in Heaven cry bitter tears of remorse and anguish for you. Your country and the world, My children, has become obsessed with immodesty and filth--all creations of satan, all soul destroyers. And how many of you go along your way--not My way, My children, but your way--to your damnation with your permissiveness, with your self-satisfaction, with your lust, and your desire for the material! Have you destroyed your soul so that you no longer recognize that one day each and every one of you must die in your body and come out of your body in your soul, your spirit eternal, that will live on forever?" - Jesus, December 31, 1976

FULL RESPONSIBILITY
"My Church is becoming fast the meeting place of all heretics. My Church, My House upon earth, is being defiled. Young souls are being sent out into the world to meet with all manner of evil and contamination. And what of Our leaders? Parents, do not depend on your leaders. You must, as parents, now assume full responsibility for the salvation of your children's souls." - Jesus, August 21, 1976

PARENTS SHARE A MAJOR RESPONSIBILITY
"Parents share a major responsibility for the fall of their children's souls. We look into homes, homes that have become hovels of abominations. Judge not by the richness and materialism of these homes, but the destruction of the souls of the children within these homes. Parents, what example have you given to your children, with your permissiveness and your following the modes of the world?" - Our Lady, July 15, 1973

DESTRUCTION BY PERMISSIVENESS
"I ask that a task force be set upon the world to eliminate the products of the forces of evil that seek to debase, destroy the souls of your children. Remove from your homes the corrupters of souls: the pornography, the infernal box--your television--and the destructor of souls, modesty and purity--the nakedness of the body.
"Parents, you shall be judged for the destruction by permissiveness, of your children's souls. Clothe them in goodness, holiness, and piety, and make modesty a way of life for the young.
"We have asked many to give example of modesty. The world will laugh and scorn and make fun of them, for they must bring forward this example by even exaggeration, My child. That is why I have asked to lower the dress of the woman to her ankles. It is only by example that many learn." - Our Lady, August 21, 1975
