Directive from Heaven #221 - Idolatry given to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#221 - Idolatry

“And the serpent said to the woman: No, you shall not die the death. For God doth know that in what day soever you shall eat thereof, your eyes shall be opened and you shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” – Genesis 3:4-5

“MAN HAS BECOME THEIR GOD!”
"Parents, exercise discipline in your homes, or your children shall be victimized outside their doors. Because of the laxity in the highest places of lawmakers in your country and countries throughout the world, sin has become a way of life! Murders and all manner of foul deeds are being committed!
"Discipline in government . . . The words are emblazoned: 'In God We Trust', but who is the god they trust? Man has become their god!
"All manner of foul pursuits enter upon the lives of mankind, giving themselves over to trust in astrology and fortunetelling. Paganism! With the demons now loosed from hell, I say unto you: you will walk softly; and you walk now where angels fear to tread! Do not enter into the realm of the supernatural. There are forces about you, unseen to the human eye, but they are from hell! You must guard your lives, your spiritual lives, with all of the armor given from Heaven, receiving all of the graces for yourselves and your children.” – Our Lady, May 28, 1977

SATANIC DELUSIONS
"Satanic delusions have been set upon the governments of the world, even as they seek to remove from your courthouses the words 'In God We Trust.' It shall now be, 'In Man We Trust, For Man Is Our God!' Woe to the inhabitants of the earth! The just hand of the Eternal Father is poised to strike you.” – Our Lady, May 13, 1978

IDOLATRY
"Your world has become a cesspool of errors, giving itself over to fornication, immorality, idolatry, and all manner of foul pursuits. The major crisis is among the young. How shall you rescue them, but by your example and prayer.” – Our Lady, June 10, 1978

SELF-LOVE
"Remember, My children, love is the outstanding word being used in your world today, but so few know the true meaning of love. So few have practiced the true meaning of love, for much of this in your world, My children, is based on self-love.” – Jesus, October 1, 1983

AGE OF PAGANISM
"As it was in the past so it is this day upon earth, that man has now regressed back to an age of paganism, idolatry, and insanity from sin. Man has given himself over to all manner of abominations. And sad to say, this way of life that man proceeds on is not the way given from Heaven for the salvation of mankind, but a darkness along the way that enshrouds the whole world now. Many souls are fast heading into the abyss, lost forever in eternity of damnation. Remember, My children, that no man, woman, or child of conscionable age shall fall into hell unless he goes there of his own free God-given will!
"As in every walk of life there is the way. And the way for mankind was given through the Book of life and love, the Bible. And this way must be followed with discipline, tempered by love and understanding, but most of all built with tradition and faith. Many of My pastors now have fallen into the modes, the present modes of modernism and humanism, and are misleading Our sheep. Therefore, it will be necessary for the Eternal Father to set in motion the cleansing, the tribulation upon mankind. In this manner shall there fast come about the separation of the sheep from the goats.” – Jesus, June 9, 1979

ROMANS I
Veronica - A short time before I started for the vigil grounds Our Lady instructed me to carry a copy of the Bible with me, and when I reached the grounds I was to read from Romans I.
In our world today there are many who do not read or know the words of the Bible. Many of the things, the abominations being committed in the world today, have been spoken of in the Bible and proven beyond a doubt that man is following a complete road to his own destruction by his actions. And the greatest curse upon mankind now is sin.
Now in Romans I it speaks of a humanity without Christ. In our present world, man is trying to create an image that has no, no representation to a God, a real God, but he is creating an image of man as a god using humanity and humanism, a false front that basically is evil. We can, Our Lady said, feed the body and starve the soul. And the world goes about now trying to bring--they say, they cry peace and goodness to mankind, but there will be no peace until man turns to his God and stops his worship of idols and the creation of idols. And they do not have to be only graven images of stone and wood, but idolatry is being practiced when a man seeks to make a god of himself, a worship of the body, as we see now in the blatant outpouring of sex, leading to immorality, paganism, and all forms of despicable evils. – March 15, 1978

RECOGNIZE THE TIMES
"Recognize the time you are living in. Recognize the signs of your times. Read the Book of life and love as I have directed you in the past years, the Bible, and you will find that one of the founders, the founding Fathers, graced by My Son, left you words of truth. You will read in the Book of life the chapter Romans, Saint Paul's letter to the Romans. Quote, My child, in the Spirit.
"As Saint Paul wrote to the Romans, that when man has given up God and replaced Him by the creatures, he would be abandoned, allowed to go onto his path of sin.
"Since women have exchanged their roles as women, preferring to be as men, and have abandoned their true, true value of life_ have abandoned their role as a mother to carry the creation of their God within their wombs, they, therefore, will also find that their husbands and sons will find rejection of women, and men will seek lustfully pleasures with men, known, My child, as homosexuality. And they will be given and abandoned to their lust, until all creatures upon earth would live in fear. Women then will find themselves turning lustful eyes to women--lesbianism, My child. And then will set in all manners of iniquity: murders, covetness, idolatry, adultery! O My child, the evil abounds upon earth!” – Our Lady, September 28, 1974

LITTLE GODS?
"You believe you can cast aside the Commandments of the Eternal Father and exist in peace? No, My children, already your world has given full evidence of what happens when you become arrogant and prideful and seek to rule as little gods upon earth. You cast aside all religious foundation and build yourself new religions that are guided by false doctrines of humanism and modernism and satanism. O My children, you never learn from your past, because you are now in a state far worse than in the times of Noe and Sodom. And what then shall be your fate?
     "My children, the Eternal Father has full knowledge of your present, your past, and your future. Much that was to happen was to take place in the future; but you, in your arrogance and turning away from the light, has made, has forced your future to be now. Madness evidenced in murders, immorality, the lack of piety, holiness, charity in the hearts of man, and even lacking in the hearts of many of My clergy, are full evidence of the fall of mankind now.
     "My children, all Heaven is concerned of the souls of the young: how they may be taken from among you for their salvation.
     "O My children, My Mother has cried bitter tears of anguish, for She has been given full knowledge of what is to be. She has tried to prepare you, to guide you through countless earth-years of time, to counsel you upon the direction to Heaven; but you have chosen in your arrogance and pride to build new religions, even bringing in hedonistic teachings and false gods. For this, My children, you are abandoned to your folly, and as such, you will find that you will be brought to your knees, forced to turn back from the wide road that you have chosen of your own free will.” – Jesus, November 24, 1979

“YOU SEE THE RESULTS”
"My children, as parents you must recognize now that your children have rejected the knowledge of their God, the Father in Heaven, and have replaced this with false gods. I say unto you now, a secret society kept secret for years was practicing witchcraft. This secret society has been bloodletting for years unknown to members that were not on the third step.
"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

STRANGE GODS
"In the Commandments of your God you will remember: 'I,' said the Lord, 'I am your God; thou shalt not have strange gods before you.' And who are these strange gods of masonry and witchcraft? Isis! My children, man has accepted gods of nature! Pagans you have become! You reject your God the Father; you reject the Trinity; and you have dabbled and burned your fingers in the unknown, the darkness of satanism.” – Our Lady, November 1, 1977

SECRET SOCIETIES
"There are secret societies now upon earth. They are all under the direction of satan. I command you, as the Eternal Father commands you, and the Spirit of light, I command you as your God that you shall not worship false idols and gods, such as gods of nature. I command you as your God to rid those who create the evil and the destruction of souls, to rid them from My House, My Church. All that is rotten will fall.” – Jesus, December 31, 1977

“TRUTH IS MY SON”
"Truth, you must understand, is the guiding light; and the Truth is My Son, in the Eternal Father and the Spirit of light. You accept false gods that satisfy your fleshly desires. Pleasures of the flesh have condemned many to hell.” – Our Lady, October 2, 1979

HUMANISTIC WAY
"The kernels that survive in a storm often fall on rocks and don't bloom and bring forth and bear fruit. But now, as I look upon My House, My Church upon earth, I find you have opened the doors to thieves and robbers. All manner of heresy abounds now in the hearts of man. You have turned from your God, and you are forming false gods of worship based on a humanistic way of life.” – Jesus, October 2, 1979

“THERE IS BUT ONE GOD”
"There are no gods, My children, upon your earth. There is but one God. You have set up many gods to worship upon your earth, even seeking to make man a god. Can you not remember how the gates of Heaven were closed to you? Why? Because of pride and arrogance and listening to the voice of evil. Your first parents, My children, listened to this voice and fell and succumbed to the evil.
"I understand, My children; I know what lies in the hearts of mankind. They do not give your children the knowledge of your first parents, Adam and Eve. They do not give your children the knowledge of the existence of hell. Can you not understand, My children, why? Without this knowledge they shall sin, and sin shall become a way of life.” – Our Lady, December 24, 1975

FIRST COMMANDMENT
"And any priest that tells you, My child or My children, as you have experienced--We have allowed you to experience this for the betterment of all mankind--any priest that tells you that you must love your neighbor first and God second, he is not a true man of God nor is he a true Roman Catholic priest, nor is he a true minister of any denomination. Because the first Commandment of God the Father is: 'I am the Lord thy God, thou shall not have strange gods before Me.' 'Thou shall not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.'
"And if a priest, or a minister, even, has the dare to blaspheme himself and tell you that don't worry about sinning, because one day you will even be a god. And you say, 'a god?' If any of you have heard this, My children, you know it is true that many have become so arrogant that they feel that they are mini-gods, little gods. In no way will man be a little god. There is no justification to be called a little god, no matter what place he has in this world.
"There is only one God, the Lord high God in Heaven. No man is God, even though he places himself up as God now, even trying to create life, and even trying to restore life to the dead. He shall never restore life to the dead. He shall never create a life. What he shall create is a monster, a soulless being. We will not go into this, My child, as I see you are tiring. But We must warn the parents against the immodesty of the world. My heart is torn, as I have told you, My child." – Our Lady, June 18, 1982

WORLDWIDE PLAGUE
"My children and parents, listen to Me well. You must not allow your children to listen to recordings known as rock and roll. They have been specifically created by Lucifer and his agents to seduce your children. They are the major instrument for leading your children into the plague, the country-wide plague of drugs, the country-wide plague of atheism, the country-wide and world-wide plague of casting aside your God and substituting false gods and religions.
"My children, awaken from your slumber!
"Parents, do not expect your clergy to come forth from their pulpits and give counsel to your children. This responsibility lies alone with you now!” – Our Lady, September 14, 1979

MAN’S DESTRUCTION
"The world cries peace, peace, and there is no peace, for they do not look for peace. The only peace is with their God. But they have set up now false gods to worship, idols of silver and gold to worship, power--and what is power but man's own destruction!
"Gather your treasures now and store them in the eternal Kingdom. You will, each and every individual, come over the veil with exactly what you left materially--with nothing! Your only merit shall be in the graces stored in your account in the Kingdom eternal. These graces are given freely for the asking.” – Jesus, May 29, 1976

PAGANS IN THEIR HEARTS
"A greater measure of responsibility will be given to the souls, the creatures--I find, My children, no name that could describe the state of a fallen soul! And what greater sorrow is there in Heaven but the sorrow of finding the teachers who have given themselves over to the world. With itching ears they are willing to experiment, looking for new doctrines, flying high in their knowledge to Heaven, and many labeling themselves as gods. Pagans they have become in their hearts, though they have an exterior of piety. Their lips come forth the sound of knowledgeable words, but I say unto you: Your words do not cover the blackness of your hearts before the Father.
"Many are selling their souls to get to the head. Satan is in My Son's House now. No evil is ever triumphant; however, the Eternal Father permits this trial to mankind and the Church for the separation of the sheep from the goats. In this trial all that is rotten shall fall.” – Our Lady, May 3, 1978

TEN COMMANDMENTS
"You must understand that the merciful heart of the Father is always extended to you. You must pray more. You must read and act upon the Commandments of your God. They can neither be added to, nor modified, nor taken away. The Ten major Commandments must be followed. And I can see, My children, that you break many now, and ask for the hand of a wrathful God upon you. Thou shalt not kill! Thou shalt not steal! Thou shalt not worship false gods! Thou shalt not commit adultery! Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife! Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's goods!
"My children, on and on I could go on, enumerating the major sins of mankind. However, since you understand that sin is insanity, to those in the light, it will appear as though the world has become a snakepit. And I say 'snake,' for it well covers the work of Lucifer.” – Jesus, November 25, 1978

NEW RELIGIONS
"My Mother has counseled you well to prepare and protect your households. The hourglass has been turned over several times to give you more time to do penance and take the stigma of sin from your homes, and mankind in general. However, man has sought success and riches and science to console him, and instead, has found a void. And the children of these parents, who have lived without faith and morals, are the major victims. For as they wandered in a life that has been a void to them, they have sought what they did not know in their human reasoning. But the heart and the inborn conscience of God has sent them seeking, but without firm direction--and this direction not coming from not only the parents but the clergy in My House--they have found instead, these poor misguided, misled children, they have found death--death of the body, and death of the soul: death with drugs, death of the soul with pornography, immorality, and the worship of false idols and gods, even consorting with new religions based on humanism and satanism.” – Jesus, November 20, 1979

WORSHIP OF LUCIFER
"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

“GODS IN YOUR OWN PARISH”
"It is through My voice-boxes throughout the world that We must send this warning of caution to all of Our cardinals and bishops. The Father will not tolerate their entering into secret societies! The discipline and rules set down by My Son and those He chose to write the Book of life and love must be adhered to. We direct, in the name of the Trinity, that you bishops and cardinals of the world must use your full powers as hierarchy to excommunicate and defrock all who seek to dethrone My Son and destroy the Faith!
"Many of you are in disobedience to Our Vicar! Many of you set yourselves up as gods in your own parish. Where is your charity? Where is the piety? Love, love--the word 'love' We see everywhere, but so few know the true meaning.” – Our Lady, August 21, 1974

ARROGANT THEOLOGIANS
"My child and My children, how long can I go about your earth going from place to place, hinder and yon, as your Mother, praying with you, solacing the nations that suffer from their own laxity. We ask for prayer, atonement, and sacrifice. And what do We get? We have theologians who now consider themselves as gods upon earth. They are setting up a new world religion, a one-world religion based on humanism and modernism. This will not continue much longer, My children. It has taken many earth-years to develop these theories. And those who have their heads in the clouds, though they wear the purple hats and the red hats, those who have become blinded from the excessive love of luxury and materialism, shall be lost in the chaos.” – Our Lady, September 27, 1986

ONLY ONE CREATOR
"The Warning will soon come upon you. Shall you then awaken from your slumber and turn from your present road of destruction? Can you not understand the counsel from My Mother? Can you not give yourselves over to lives of piety and usefulness to man without falling into a delusion based on humanism and modernism in the ways of man?
"Man shall not create a new world as he seeks. For there cannot be a lasting world without His God. And I speak not of the false idols and gods that man creates in his human nature! There is only one Creator.” – Jesus, February 10, 1978

NO MAN IS A GOD
"No man is a god, and as such he shall not make himself a god in the eyes of others." - Our Lady, June 30, 1984

GREAT APOSTASY
"Those who have been given the rule within My Son's House are using their knowledge to twist and pervert the teachings of the prophets. What manner of church are you building now, O mankind, as you fast plunge to your destruction? A church of man that will have no resemblance to the Church that My Son left for you!
"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

GET READY NOW
"The Eternal Father in Heaven knows the day and the hour for the coming great Chastisement. A partial part of this knowledge has been given now to a few voices upon earth who, like John, go forth crying out like voices in the wilderness: Get ready now, for the punishments are approaching!
"My children, if you cast aside the Commandments of the Eternal Father and set up a new rule to live by, you are lost. If you defy the Book of life and love, your Bible, and rewrite it to suit your own basic carnal human nature, you are lost! If you bring false doctrines upon earth, the doctrines of demons, worshiping false gods, worshiping Lucifer, you are lost!
"Pray for your children. Parents, do you really know your children? Have you taught them to pray? Have you given them the knowledge of their faith? No-o-o, I say unto you as your God! Your actions, your heart is not unknown to Me. The Eternal Father looks into your heart. You cannot hide your sin; it will be exposed! No evil is ever triumphant. The Eternal Father will turn all evil to good, so desperate is He that not even one soul be lost to Him.” – Our Lady, August 14, 1979
