Directive from Heaven #758 - The Great Tribulation - given to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#758 - The Great Tribulation

"And you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars. See that ye be not troubled. For these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in places: Now all these are the beginnings of sorrows." - St. Matthew 24: 6-8

LIVING IN THE TIMES OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION
"You are living in the times of the coming of the great Tribulation. And were it not I to return--I will tell you also, My children--were not I to return, there would be no flesh left." - Jesus, November 1, 1985

"MY SON'S HAND HAS NOW BEEN WITHDRAWN"
"You will all now go forward as apostles of My Son, disciples of the latter days, under the banner of 'Our Lady of the Roses, Mary, Help of Mothers.' Many will come to join you. The Message from Heaven has now reached all corners of the earth. Many voices are sending out the news, the good news to mankind.
"It is just about time now, My child, for the world now to be tested. My Son's hand has now been withdrawn and the tribulation is coming upon mankind. Many will be taken and spared the terrible sorrows ahead." - Our Lady, June 18, 1980

"THE TRIBULATION IS AT HAND"
"My voice cries out to you all now to be prepared, for the tribulation is at hand. All who have listened to My Mother's counsel and are of well spirit--have no fear. My words to you are consolation. I do not seek to place fear into your hearts. I console you with the knowledge that you will be saved. Remember in the days ahead, remember My words of consolation to you all: you will say, My Jesus, my confidence!
"My children, you will read and reread the messages from Heaven given through My Mother to you. Read them well, for much has been overlooked in the past. You will receive great knowledge, and you will be able then to know the day, the hour of the tribulation." - Jesus, June 18, 1980

AN EXTREMELY COLD DAY
"The Eternal Father has the Ball poised in His hand; your end can come by day. It will come upon you quickly, and how many shall be prepared? Do you have your candles? Do you have your water, your canned food, and your blankets? It will become an extremely cold day with the start of the Tribulation, and you will welcome having these on hand, My children. Do not take this lightly, but abide by Our direction and you shall not be caught short of provisions." - Jesus, November 1, 1985

WILL YOU BE ABLE TO PERSEVERE?
"My child and My children, if I could open up the sky above Me and show you a picture of the tears that fall upon you! It's truly raining teardrops from Heaven. For many of you are blind to what lies ahead. There will be a time of great tribulation upon mankind. Will you be able to persevere during this time?" - Our Lady, October 6, 1992

TRIBULATIONS HAVE STARTED
"Remember always as I repeat to you that God is, God was, God always will be. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow is forever. The tribulations of the world have started, and the course of mankind continues on the road to great trial because your generation has given itself over to all manner of sins of the flesh, that will condemn many to hell.
"There is only one way to restore your world to peace, and that is by following the way of My cross. You cannot change My words to bring them in line with mankind's own egotistical ways. You will find that humanism and modernism shall bring much suffering upon mankind.
"My Mother has directed you well through countless appearances upon earth, and how many have listened to Her counsel? And how many have acted upon it? I say unto you now: You have become a degenerate generation that asks for a just chastisement from the Eternal Father." - Jesus, October 2, 1980

MANY SHALL BE REMOVED FROM THE EARTH
"During the great tribulation, My children, many shall be removed from your earth. In due time you will understand
"You must continue to pray much for your priests. You must continue to pray for your leaders of government. Pray that they bring into your homes the knowledge of their God, for many are now fast pursuing a course of destruction, not only of the body but of the soul." - Our Lady, August 5, 1976

"WILL BE GIVEN TO MANKIND TO CLEANSE YOUR WORLD"
"My children, 666, the forces of satan, have accelerated the evil among you. Those who have chosen to sell their souls will gather momentum and run fast into the abyss. The greatest sorrow in Heaven now is the knowledge that 666 has set up his place among the rulers of Rome. I, your God and your Judge eternal, give you in command the direction to turn back and restore My House while there is time. I plan in the near future to come among you and set My House to right.
"Many trials and a great tribulation will be given to mankind to cleanse your world, the earth, of the evil that man has allowed to come upon himself. Each and every soul shall stand in judgment for his commissions and omissions upon earth. Many souls are falling fast into hell. And do not remove from among you the knowledge and the truth of the existence of hell. It is a place of eternal damnation and banishment. Purgatory is a great sense of loss and suffering of banishment, but eased by the knowledge of an end that will lead to Heaven." - Jesus, August 5, 1976

MANY SAINTS WILL COME OUT OF THE GREAT TRIBULATION
"There must be change, My children, but a change back to reality and Tradition. My Son has given you a true foundation, but many come now with axes and they chop away. They seek to build a church without spirit, a church of man. The walls will crumble, the earth will shake. The Eternal Father will send His wrath upon mankind.
    "I do not seek to place fear in the hearts of My children, but I must warn you and prepare you for what will happen if you are not successful in turning mankind back from his sins and abominations.
    "You must all go forward, My children, sending the message throughout the world. If the door is slammed in your face, keep going. There are many doors to knock at.
    "There will be many saints coming out of the great tribulation. They will be called the latter-day saints, My children. There are crowns of joy, stars, and lights awaiting many who will come over the veil as martyrs." - Our Lady, December 6, 1975

"MAN HAS SET HIMSELF ON THE ROAD TO GREAT TRIBULATION"
"The peace promised by My Mother will not come at this time. Man has set himself on the road to great tribulation.
    "All who are of well spirit will have nothing to fear. They will go through this crucible of suffering with hope and courage, for they will have their armor, a knowledge of the value of prayer, and hope in the eternal Kingdom.
    "It will be a battle, My children, I assure you, a battle such as never has been seen upon your earth, and never will be seen again. All will enter into this battle. Every man, woman, and child shall feel its effects.
    "All of the age of reasoning shall be tested. Many young shall be taken from your world to protect their souls.
    "Re-read, My children, the messages given through My Mother and other seers throughout the world. Learn by them and act upon them, for you have been given the pattern for your future." - Jesus, December 6, 1975

"MANY SAINTS SHALL COME FORTH"
"Know ye all who hear My voice, as a Mother of great sorrow for Her children, that mankind has turned away from the light and sin has become a way of life. The multitudes are hastening to the cities for wealth, riches, and power. The great cities shall fall from tribulation. The great powers of the world shall be defeated slowly, until the ultimate victory over evil comes with My Son and the angels from Heaven.
"My children, there is now raging upon earth a battle of the spirits. Every man, woman, and child shall be affected by this war of the spirits. You must go forward now as disciples of My Son, and many saints shall come forth from the great tribulation.
"How many times in My past travels upon earth did I counsel you to avoid the pitfalls that would bring what was to happen in the future upon your present generation? How many listened to My counsel and acted upon it? Too few, My children, too few!" - Jesus, September 13, 1978

UNLESS MANKIND HAS ACTED UPON OUR LADY'S COUNSEL…
"My child and My children, I am not intending to repeat over and over the counsel of My Mother. I can only say that, unless mankind has absorbed even a small measure of the counsel given by My Mother and acted upon it, mankind will go through a great tribulation. I say 'unless' because Heaven is not seeking to prevent in any way the access to mankind of Heaven." - Jesus, September 13, 1978

NEVER SEEN SINCE THE BEGINNING OF CREATION
"I, Michael, guardian of the Faith, give fair warning to mankind that the Eternal Father, Creator and Master of all, has looked upon you and found you wanting. Measure for measure shall man be brought to his knees by trial. There shall be set upon mankind a great tribulation such as has been never seen since the beginning of man's creation, and those that pass through this great tribulation shall come forward cleansed in the Blood of the Lamb." - St. Michael, May 14, 1977

"MY HAND GROWS HEAVY"
"My child and My children, I need not warn you to listen well and follow the direction of My Mother. She has come to you with a Mother's heart of pity. She comes before the Eternal Father and pleads for your repatriation. She stands before you as a Mediatrix between God and man.
"My hand grows heavy! I tolerate with sorrow the abominations that now continue to add on in man's pursuit of worldly pleasure and gain. Man, in his allegiance with evil, has set himself now fast onto the road to his own destruction. I say unto you that the day will soon be upon mankind, the time of great tribulation such as mankind has never experienced since the creation of earth, and shall never see again at its completion. Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth in these days!" - Jesus, May 14, 1977

APPROACHING GREAT TRIBULATION
"My child, I do not intend at this time to elaborate upon My Mother's message to the world. But needless to say, the world's people have received a long counsel from Heaven, preparing all mankind for the days now, the days with the approaching great tribulation in sight.
"My child and My children, for all who seek to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, much will be expected of them. The road to Heaven will have many thorns. The cross will grow heavy, but you will pick up your cross and follow Me on that road.
"The world shall be purged by suffering, for wars are always a punishment, a chastisement for man's sins." - Jesus, September 14, 1979

WILL SOON BE UPON MANKIND
"I bless you all, My children, and send to you the necessary graces to proceed with perseverance and endurance in the days ahead.
"The great tribulation will soon be upon mankind. Those who pass through the tribulation shall come out cleansed, their robes cleansed with the Blood of the Lamb." - Jesus, September 14, 1979

A TRIBULATION SO GREAT
"It will be a time of great tribulation for all, a tribulation so great that were not My Son to take pity on you and intervene, no life would remain upon your planet. Pray, pray, My children, for you do not know what lies ahead of you." - Our Lady, September 13, 1974

TRIBULATION IN THE HOUSE OF GOD
"There will be great trial and punishment, tribulation in the House of God, the houses of God throughout the world, and in the lay life of the human being. The fight will be a war of the spirits. The pages of the apocalyptic times must turn. All who remain after this time of great trial will join with My Son in setting up the Kingdom that I promised you, the time of great peace. It will only be with you, this great peace promised, at the return, the Second Coming of My Son, Jesus.
"After the great tribulation, the number saved will be counted in the few. They will join with My Son and continue on with a life of great joy and glory to the Father as planned in the beginning. Satan will tempt none ever more unto the time allotted given to him before the great and final judgment." - Our Lady, September 13, 1974

SATAN HAS ENTERED INTO THE CHURCH
"Unite against the common enemy of God. Recognize the faces of evil and the forces of evil about you now. Satan has now control of all medias on your earth. He has entered his agents within your government, your schools, and all forms of worldly entertainment. And sadly I must state again, he has entered into My Son's House.
"I realize, My child, I am repetitious in many of My admonitions. But My voice shall not weaken. I shall go on and be with you through the great tribulations, for I know that as My strength from the Father and the love from My heart goes forth to you, there is always one soul who will turn back to Me. I will abandon no one to satan who will reach out and ask for Our grace." - Our Lady, December 31, 1972

"I PROMISE TO PROTECT"
"The hours, the holy hour I requested of you will continue on the Lord's Day. This will continue until the great tribulation. I promise to protect all those who are upon My grounds when this great tribulation comes upon you." - Our Lady, December 30, 1972

APPROACHING
"It brings great sorrow to My heart and the heart of My Son in the Eternal Father and the Spirit of light, that is being diminished in the hearts of many--it brings Me great sorrow to know as I watch My children upon earth proceeding farther into the darkness created by sin. Sin is insanity. It shall be recognized among you as you see and recognize the signs of your times.
"The time of great tribulation is approaching. Your leaders of the United States of America and many leaders throughout the world are seeking to stop the holocaust that will come upon mankind. This decision will be not in the will of man, but be in the will of the Eternal Father. As you sow, so shall ye reap." - Our Lady, June 18, 1979

MESSAGE MUST REACH ALL
"The Message from Heaven must reach every man, woman, and child because the great tribulation approaches." - Our Lady, June 4, 1977

ONLY A FEW WILL BE SAVED
"My Son, the Eternal Father, and the Spirit of life gather in the knowledge that there will be sent upon mankind a great tribulation, a tribulation through which only a few will be saved. Satan has poisoned many minds. You must pray for all men of sin--charity and love for your neighbor." - Our Lady, September 7, 1979

UNITED STATES AND CANADA
"My child and My children, prayer has not become a way of life for many. That is why communism has got such a foothold in your country and in other countries of the world. The prayers given to you in your childhood will be remembered always, I know, My children; but there are those who have not received these prayers in their schools, for prayer has been outlawed in many areas of your country and the world. It took but a few without faith to bring down the flag, for even your country's flag is being defiled, My children. I speak both of the United States and Canada, for when the great tribulation falls upon them, they will have to hold each other up; for they cannot escape through the waters to get help. They will not escape through the skies, but the number of dead will be counted in the millions." - Our Lady, October 2, 1987

SATAN ENTERED THE CHURCH
"Therefore, I must make it known at this time to you. If you are perceiving and interested in My Church upon earth, I do not have to explain Myself too fully; for you will already know of the chaos that satan has wrought when he entered My Church. And why did he enter, you say? This I want it made known, My child, and you will not be affrighted as you are now. And you will speak out for Me and My Mother and the Eternal Father in the Holy Spirit; you will speak out and say that satan is in the Church, My Church upon earth. He knows his time is growing short.
"And if you think you have seen carnage now already in the Church, the worst is yet to come, unless you follow the rules given by My Mother many years ago, of prayer, atonement, and sacrifice. By your example you may be able to save others. For soon there will come upon you the great Chastisement. It comes in two parts, My child and My children: the Third World War, and also the Ball of Redemption. These can no longer be delayed. For the good seem to go about their way, perhaps pridefully. We do not seek to accuse or place a stigma on any, but some may pridefully sit back and let others go forth and make these sacrifices and prayers and penance. Because they have become smug, or because they have not the grace to understand that once you receive this grace much is expected of you. You must even work harder to save your brothers and sisters.
"My child and My children, this message will not be greeted gleefully by your clergy. But since Lucy has been silenced, it is necessary that the world knows the truth. I will also send this message out through one more seer in the world, and if it is not abided by, I have nothing to do but to allow the Chastisement to fall upon mankind." - Jesus, June 18, 1986

YOU WILL BE PLANET-STRUCK
"The balance is being added to the left. Therefore, when your world has reached the peak of iniquity, you will be planet-struck. A glorious mystery will be sent upon earth through the merciful love of a forgiving Father for His errant children. However, this will be the final act to bring you back before the cleansing with fire.
"We do not intend to completely destroy earth as in the past, but We shall cleanse the earth by steps. Suffering shall be your vessel for cleansing. Man has allowed demons to direct his actions. Man has desecrated the temple of the Holy Spirit by succumbing to the wiles of satan. Man offends his God with his way of life." - Our Lady, April 14, 1973

THE FINAL SCOURGE
"Iniquity is reaching its peak. As you have been directed in the past, by the Queen of Heaven and earth, as the peak of iniquity is reached--then shall man feel the final scourge. The world--your world--shall pass through a crucible of suffering. All who are of well spirit have nothing to fear. Hope and trust in your God, shall take you through this trial." - St. Michael, July 15, 1975

THE END OF YOUR ERA
"My child, at this time there is not much that I can think of that will explain to you in your human language the despair that fills Our hearts in Heaven. The numbers of souls falling daily into hell are increasing because of the lack of discipline and faults of leadership in My House. You will not follow the ways of man, but you will bring man onto My road. When you have joined My House with the world and it has become one, know that the end of your era has come. You are going to receive the test of trial; in this manner shall We separate the sheep from the goats, and those that will be left shall set up the renewed Kingdom upon your earth.
"My Mother has been sent on this mission by the Father to warn you, then to prepare you for what lies ahead if you refuse to turn back from the ways that have set you onto the path of darkness. The forces of evil are rampant now within My House and in the hearts of men. Unless you turn back now, make atonement to the Father for the many offenses against Him, you will receive the sword.” – Jesus, May 30, 1974

REVOLUTION IN ROME
"My child, you speculate much about the coming Warning. I have asked you many times not to speculate on dates, but I give you one indication that the time is ripe. When you see, when you hear, when you feel the revolution in Rome, when you see the Holy Father fleeing, seeking a refuge in another land, know that the time is ripe." - Jesus, September 14, 1976

BEGINNING OF THE TERRIBLE SORROW
"I come to earth from Heaven. I have roamed your world in tears. It truly now rains teardrops from Heaven. With the coming of the Warning to mankind, pray and pray much, for it is the beginning of the terrible sorrows." - Our Lady, July 15, 1973

THE WARNING
Veronica - It's as though everything has exploded in the sky—the flash! And it's very hot! It's very warm! Oh! Oh! It feels like a burning. Oh! Now the sky is very white. Colors—blues, purples—it's like a huge explosion. Now this voice, the voice.... And the voice, Our Lady says, is a voice within you: "Your warning before Chastisement!" Flash, fire, and the voice within you. The final Warning before Chastisement!" - April 21, 1973

APPROACHING THE DAY OF THE LORD
"My children, you are approaching the Day of the Lord. There will be set upon mankind a time of great tribulation. Time for your world is running out. My Mother has gone throughout your world shedding tears of pity upon mankind, begging the Eternal Father for additional time for your repatriation. How many have listened to Her counsel and acted upon it? How many have found the warmness of heart and charity of heart to pray for the priesthood upon earth? My children, I assure you in certainty, that there are many who wear the cloth of the clergy that are descending fast into hell and purgatory. Surely, in your charity of heart, you can do penance for them while they are upon earth. The Eternal Father has set the rule for mankind for the redemption of each and every soul.
"My children, no man must set himself to question the direction of My Mother. No man can understand in his human nature the plan of the Eternal Father and how He accepts, measure for measure, extra penance and atonement from mankind. There is truly a balance now kept in this struggle against the evil forces from hell now loosed in fury upon mankind." - Jesus, May 28, 1977

SHALL BE AT HAND
"Discipline, rigid discipline must be restored. The founding Fathers gave you the example and the knowledge, but you want change. The Father expects no change. Truth is truth. It is only satan who wishes to destroy the truth in change. The rock has always withstood the test of time. But one will be entered into the House of God, and woe to man when he places him upon the Seat of Peter*, for then the great Day of the Lord shall be at hand." - St. Pius X, March 18, 1974

*See Directive #155 - Antipope of History

HALF-MOON SICKLE
"I am the Queen of Heaven, Mother of earth, and Mediatrix of all graces. I will stand here through the turmoil that lies ahead within the holy House of God.
"You will all recognize the sign of him who seeks to destroy. He will have on his coat of arms the sickle, the half-moon sickle. You will all make atonement for your bishops and cardinals." - Our Lady, October 6, 1972

TIME IS GROWING VERY SHORT
"There is much that must be told to the world, as the time is growing very short.
"The Warning will soon be upon mankind. You ask Me, My child, can it be stopped? Only by prayers and sacrifice shall it be held back, but the time is long overdue. If it was not for My Mother Who steadily holds Her hand upon Mine in sorrow, I would let My hand fall and the Warning come upon mankind. It is not to be asked for, because you know it is coming, My children. It is to be prayed against, for there will be those who will die in this Warning." - Jesus, October 1, 1988
