Directive from Heaven - No. 405 – The Holy Priesthood, Part 2 given at to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#405 - The Holy Priesthood, Part 2

"For, great is the dignity of priests; but also, when they sin, great is their ruin. Let us rejoice at having been raised so high, but let us be afraid of falling." - St. Jerome

NO EQUAL ON EARTH
"My child, make it known to Our priests in My Son's houses upon earth, churches, that We want Our priests to shine forth as pure examples of chastity and holiness. They have been misguided in direction by many superiors, who also follow like sheep to the slaughter, the misdirection of their superiors. It is like a wheel turning, My child, with the fire slowly destroying it.
"The example that must be shown and given to the children of earth by Our priests must set them apart as representatives of My Son. They do not have any equal upon earth, for their vocation is a special gift of God. We are sad, My child, to look upon the darkness that covers the soul of many.
"The greatest error in My Son's House is the delusion set upon man by satan that souls will be gained by joining them in their corruption. No! The example must be pure and set apart from the worldly instincts.” – Our Lady, June 18, 1974

SATAN’S GREATEST ONSLAUGHT AGAINST PRIESTHOOD
"My child, the greatest onslaught of satan will be to the priesthood of My Son. With all the abounding errors that are now raging throughout My Son's House, there can be given to mankind the hope in their redemption with the coming Chastisement. A great Warning will be given before the Chastisement.
"Oh yes, My child, many will see and still not believe.
"O pastors in My Son's House, how many times must I warn you of the dangers of your innovations, the dangers of your experimenting in My Son's House? You will not convert, you will not return Our straying sheep with your improvisions. You must return discipline to My Son's House. This discipline must start with the rulers in My Son's House.” – Our Lady, November 22, 1976

“HIS HEART IS TORN ASUNDER”
"My Son, His heart is torn asunder by His representatives in the priesthood who now are Judases in His own House. They consort with the enemies of your God. In the manner of humanism and modernism, and an ecumenism that has been designed from hell, man now is plunging fast into making ready the full capitulation of My Son's Church and the world under a dictatorship of evil.” – Our Lady, November 22, 1976

GREAT ATTACKED PLANNED AGAINST PRIESTHOOD
"O My children, your streets will run with blood because you have not listened. Pastors, a great attack is being planned against the priesthood. You will be shot down like targets in the streets. Prepare now and pray. Wear your sacramentals. Protect Our sheep now; the battle is raging.” – Our Lady, September 7, 1977

SATAN SEEKS TO REMOVE THE PRIESTHOOD
Veronica - The priests are deceived, Our Lady said, in Her Son's House; they are deceived. They do not realize that satan has planned to dethrone them from their vocation. Little by little satan seeks to remove the priesthood.
As a representative of Jesus, a legally-ordained priest must be the only instrument of God to bring the Body of Jesus to the multitudes. Only in a severe manner must a man--and this severe manner being the absence of a priest in the face of a death--then the priest will allow a deacon--a man, not a woman--a deacon, a man in the extremist emergency to take the Sacred Body of Jesus to a dying person. And that will be the only time. – November 19, 1977

PRIESTS CONDONING ABORTION AND HOMOSEXUALITY
"I will not stand for My priests who condone homosexuality and allow it in My priesthood! I will not stand for My priests who allow the murder of the unborn with their permissiveness! I will not stand by and allow My priesthood to be destroyed!" – Jesus, June 18, 1982

STEPS MUST BE FOLLOWED
"You must keep in your hearts the knowledge of the true priesthood of My Son. The steps for obtaining Holy Orders must be followed. They have been developed through heavenly guidance for reason. No women must enter onto the holy place of the sacrifice.” – Our Lady, September 13, 1978

BECAUSE TOO FEW HAVE CARED TO PRAY”
"My child and My children, you wonder now of the happenings in Rome. Much that has happened has taken place because too few have cared to pray and do penance for the priesthood. One day all will be made known to mankind.
"I have come to you as a Mediatrix between God and man, in the will of the Eternal Father, to warn you, O priests in My Son's Church, His House upon earth, that you must turn back and start again.” – Our Lady, October 6, 1978

NOT TO COMPROMISE THE CHURCH
"My children, go to your bishops and tell them that all Heaven is disturbed, and Our hearts are torn by the laxity in attitude to pride and arrogance of the priesthood in My Son's Church. We ask for you to convert the unbelievers but not to join them, not to compromise My Son's Church. The reforms you are promoting will bring your destruction, for the sheep will leave.” – Our Lady, May 26, 1979

“DO NOT ABANDON MY SON’S CHURCH”
"Do not abandon My Son's Church because of the antics--because of the personality of some or many of My Son's representatives in the priesthood. Do not judge My Son's House, His Church, by man's reasoning. But remember: you must remain in your parish churches, partaking of the Bread of life in the Eucharist. My Son is always with you in the Eucharist.” – Our Lady, October 6, 1979

"DO NOT GO SEEKING ELSEWHERE"
"I ask you all not to abandon My Church. Do not judge My Church by the priest, for in his human nature he can err. But I assure you I am using him, as a legally ordained priest, to bring you My Body and Blood. Do not go seeking elsewhere, for you will lose your baptismal right, and you will no longer be accepted as a Roman Catholic, and you will not enter into the highest place of Heaven, the Kingdom of Paradise." - Jesus, October 6, 1980

AN ORDAINED PRIEST WILL HAVE THE POWER
"My children, I have asked you not to abandon My Son's House, His Church upon earth. But I must also counsel you that you must recognize the faces of evil about you, even in My Son's House.
"Regardless of the state of the soul or the human body and its frailties in the body and the nature of man of the priesthood--regardless of how he disports himself upon earth, as a legally ordained priest, he will have the power through the Holy Spirit to bring My Son's Body to you. You cannot judge My Son's Church by those who call themselves leaders, for they also in their human nature can be taken over by demons, and they can be used by these diabolical forces to destroy My Son's Church.” – Our Lady, February 10, 1978

“I ASK YOU AS YOUR GOD TO CAST AWAY YOUR PRIDE”
"I ask that My Church be restored to its former glory. You are destroying it with change.
"My children, those who in vocation have dedicated themselves to the priesthood, I ask you as your God to cast away your pride. Admit there has been error. Listen to your Vicar who stated that the smoke of satan had entered My Church. Did he have pride when he brought this knowledge to you? No! He asked for help. And what did you do? You turned away and widened the door for satan to enter!
"You are blinded, My hierarchy. You seek to bring all into My Church, but this must be by conversion. You are allowing all manner of heretics and the antichrist forces to enter among you. You are being deceived. Awaken from your slumber.” – Jesus, September 28, 1978

“I ASK YOU TO APPROACH MY PRIESTHOOD”
"My children, I cannot impress you more with the urgency of going faster forward in the time that is left, forward to save your brothers and sisters. I ask you to approach My priesthood. Bishops and cardinals must now accept all of the Message from Heaven, even though it will bring about controversy among them. For it will be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal. For all that is rotten will fall and must not be retained.” – Jesus, November 20, 1978

“WHAT CAN YOU DO NOW TO RECOVER?”
"There is in Rome, My children, a great struggle for power, a political machine controlled by satan. There shall be a war of the spirits. It shall be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal.
"I repeat, My children, as I have told you in the past, that the great Council of Vatican II was manipulated by satan. He sat there among you and he worked you like a chessboard.
"What can you do now to recover? It is simple, My children: turn back and start over with the foundation given to you. You must bring respect back to your priesthood.” – Our Lady, May 15, 1976

NOW YOU SEE THE RESULTS
"My children, all that was given in the foundation of faith, all that was indoctrinated into the true priesthood was for reason. And now you see the results of casting aside the traditions of your Faith.” – Our Lady, November 1, 1977

THE MASS IS VALID
"Yes, My child, Jesus is always present in His House. The Holy Sacrifice of His Mass is always valid when performed by a duly ordained priest. No matter what his human character is, at the time of the Consecration the Father sends the Holy Spirit down to use this human being known as your high priest, to bring to you the Body and the Blood, spiritual and physical, of My Son to you….
"You ask, My child, about the state of soul of the priesthood. This, My child, is not for you to question or judge. A human being he is, yes. Subject to error, yes. Subject to fall, yes. But still during the Consecration, and when he hears you in the confessional, the Holy Spirit comes down upon him, using him as an instrument to bring absolution to you.
"It is satan's plan to drive you from My Son's House by creating a fallacy and the outright lie, My children, that the Mass is no longer valid and My Son not present! We see and watch and use human instruments to make the corrections necessary to right the houses of My Son. Many have hardened their hearts and do not listen to these warnings from Heaven. Then, My child, all the Father can do is to chastise them.” – Our Lady, October 6, 1973

GIVEN THE KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH
"You will make it known to the world that those whom I have chosen to be shepherds of My flock will suffer greatly in the days ahead. However, they must guide by the light those who have not in earthly training. For My priesthood have been given the knowledge of truth. They must live this life; they must not give themselves to the world. For at this present time, My children, My houses upon earth are being opened to all the agents of hell. You must cleanse My House now, or you will have to close your doors.
"You must not unite with the forces of evil. Be not deluded. You must not compromise the Faith!" – Jesus, September 7, 1974

LAST RITES A SPECIAL GRACE
"And also remember, My children, when you break one commandment, you break them all. So better that you follow them through, and when you are ready to pass over the veil you will not have to be gripped with fear if you cannot have a priest on hand in your last moments upon earth. You see, My child and My children, not everyone is taken from the earth with the final blessing from the priesthood. That is a special grace.” – Our Lady, November 1, 1985

DOES HOLINESS REIGN?
"My children, without charity you have nothing! Does holiness reign, and charity, in the hearts of the clergy in My Son's House? Or shall I give to you the measure of offenses by count as My Son suffers for these offenses by count? For when you do not clothe your brother in his nakedness, when you do not feed your brother in his hunger, when you do not comfort him in his affliction, you offend the Father in Heaven and the Trinity; for even the most humble and smallest among you, as human beings upon earth, are the children of your God, and each and every man, woman, and child has been created in the image of God. But now you have given yourselves over to seeking worldly pleasures; you have given yourselves over to the worship of Lucifer and false gods. And then you cry to Heaven: 'Where are my children? Why have my children turned against us?' Parents, leaders in the houses of religion upon earth, have you followed your vocation? What measure of responsibility shall you be counted for in the fall of your nation?” – Our Lady, September 7, 1979

LIFE OF PRAYER
"My Son has chosen from the world many to represent Him in His House. It saddens Our hearts to know that many now prefer life among the human race. They do not prefer to stand forth as an example of My Son. Unless My Son’s representatives return to their life of prayer, they will be led farther from the path." - Our Lady, December 24, 1972

FOR LIFE
"When a man has given himself, and chosen from out of the world as a priest of his God, he will be a priest for life." - Our Lady, March 18, 1973

TRAINING WITHOUT HOLINESS
"My Mother's voice has carried far and wide through earth-years, and what reception has She met with but rejection! And rejection within My House! You sit together in council without purpose. You seek to train and teach without holiness.” – Jesus, November 1, 1976

BISHOPS AND CARDINALS
"I give you, the world, a fair and just warning from the most high God of Heaven and earth!
"To all of Our bishops and cardinals: awaken from your sleep! This warning is given so that you will have time to make amends. You are burrowing like rats into the foundation of My House! In your quest to improve, you are destroying My House! In your arrogance, you are traveling the road of the fallen angels! Modernization--you shall not change to please human nature! You will bring man to his God through discipline. The rules have been given to you, set down very clearly in the Book of life, the Bible. You will not change the words to suit your fallen nature! My word to you is this: Return My House to the rule! A House in darkness will shut its doors. The filth must be cleansed!" – Jesus, December 6, 1974

TO TEST THEIR FIDELITY
"Pray, My children, a constant vigilance of prayer for your priests, cardinals, bishops, your clergy, for a great test, a delusion has been set amongst them to test their valor, to test their holiness, to test their fidelity to My Son's Church! Oh sorrow of sorrows from your Mother's heart, that as We now go throughout your world, can We say that there are one hundred true priests left in My Son's House? Shall He return and find even a flicker of faith left among His sheep? The shepherds don't carry the light.” – Our Lady, May 23, 1979

100 TRUE PRIESTS LEFT?
“When this battle is over, you will be most fortunate, without prayer, if you will find one hundred true priests, men of God, left among you. I say ‘true.’
“My children, you must pray for your bishops and your cardinals. Pray for your clergy. Many are falling fast into hell and purgatory.” – Jesus, May 18, 1977

RETURN TO YOUR TRADITIONAL RITES
"I send to My clergy, those whom I have given the grace to represent Heaven upon earth, this warning: You must now return to your traditional rites! You must restore My House from its crumbling exterior and rotting interior. You must rebuild what you seek to destroy--now!

"Many who call themselves My chosen ones have set themselves to destroy from within. Your actions have not gone by unnoticed by the Eternal Father. Error, deception, deceit, in the guise of sanctity and piousness! You are unmasked before the Eternal Father.” – Jesus, November 22, 1975

PURIFIED FINGERS
"We ask and repeat that no one handle in unconsecrated hands the Body of My Son! It will be defiled and discarded, unless only a legally-ordained priest, a man of God, with purified fingers of the Holy Spirit, give the Body and Blood of My Son to each one under his care." - Our Lady, September 6, 1975

GREATEST SORROW
"The greatest sorrow that smites My Heart, My children, is the desecration to My Son's Body. These abominable acts are being committed by His own in His houses, His churches upon earth.
"I repeat again that none shall bring the sacred Body of My Son, His Body and Blood, to another but a legally-ordained priest with consecrated hands. I say, My children, consecrated hands, blessed hands, washed clean by the Holy Spirit! No man shall render excuses for defilement of My Son's Body."- Our Lady, May 14, 1977

SEVEN SACRAMENTS
"I do not, at this time, intend to point out any individual, but My voice goes out to you, as My Mother; you know if you are guilty of any sins against the Sacraments.
"There are seven Sacraments commanded of you by Heaven, My children, and you will keep them. You shall not take them apart by using rationality, and modernism, and humanism. This cannot be." - Jesus, June 18, 1987

NEW MODES
"You must not reject the Sacraments in My Church; you must not reject the teachings for new modes of modernism and socialism." - Jesus, June 2, 1979

“RETURN, MY CLERGY”
"I am your God, and I say unto you: continue to change My Church and you will fall! You will build a secular church, bringing in all--even heretics, even homosexuals. All aberrations condemned by the Eternal Father, you will permit in the name of humanism. Nay, no! I say unto you as your God: you will be given a short reign, for I consider you then an abomination, and as such, you will be removed.
"All will be tested like metals in the fire, and all that is rotten shall fall. Return, My clergy, to a life of prayer, holiness, and true purpose of your vocation." – Jesus, May 23, 1979

"APPROACH MY PRIESTHOOD"
"My children, I cannot impress you more with the urgency of going faster forward in the time that is left, forward to save your brothers and sisters. I ask you to approach My priesthood. Bishops and cardinals must now accept all of the Message from Heaven, even though it will bring about controversy among them. For it will be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal, for all that is rotten will fall and must not be retained." - Jesus, November 20, 1978

PRAY FOR YOUR PRIEST DAILY
"Remember, My child and My children, no matter how rough the road gets, you will stay within your parish church. And by good example and many prayers you will bring the priesthood back into the light. Many have lost their way because there are so few who pray for them. Remember, My children, to pray for your clergy, for they are human also and subject to error, mistakes, influence, and sometimes, pure evil. Pray for your priest daily, My children." - Our Lady, June 17, 1989
