Directive from Heaven - No. 344 - Purification given at to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#344 - Purification

“Be you therefore perfect, as also your heavenly Father is perfect.” – St. Matthew 5:48

YOUR COUNTRY SHALL NOT ESCAPE
"There will be placed upon the world a very heavy cross. Your country shall not escape a long due chastisement. The Father is not hard of heart. He is most merciful and has suffered long. However, it will be the purification for many.” – Our Lady, December 7, 1973

ROAD TO YOUR PURIFICATION
"My child, do not seek to defend yourself with others. You will accept your cross without complaint, knowing that the Father Who speaks to you in secret is watching all in secret. You will not have to answer for your actions to man. Therefore, do not seek acknowledgement, My child, among man; for if you receive your award--reward from man, what can then We offer you in Heaven? Know that you cannot expect less a lot than My Son had received. It is the way and the road to your purification.” – Our Lady, December 24, 1973

PURGATORY
"Beyond the veil are the Kingdoms of Heaven and the kingdom of the prince of darkness. Do not sorrow, My child, for you have knowledge that not all will enter the Kingdom without cleansing. How much better it would be if man would learn the value of suffering, and serve his purgatory upon earth, for very few have entered into the Kingdom without a purification.” – Our Lady, December 24, 1973

YOU MUST BE PURIFIED
"Know, My children, that to enter the Kingdom of your God, you must be spotless; you must be purified. If this purification is not obtained upon your earth-years, you must then be purified in the place of waiting and suffering, of deprivation--purgatory.
"And woe to the man who does not fight the wiles of satan to save his soul, and will spend an eternity in the abyss of hell. Each and every soul has been given the opportunity for his salvation. Do not fall for the error created by satan through mankind that all will be saved in the end. Many have passed over the veil, never having this opportunity to make amends, and have been sent to the darkest pit of hell.” – Jesus, August 14, 1976

PURE AS A SNOWFLAKE
"Do not listen to the false prophets who go throughout your world now saying and printing and publicizing errors, stating there is no place of punishment. I assure you, My children, before a soul can enter Heaven, the Eternal Kingdom of light, that soul must be as pure as a snowflake before it enters into your world's atmosphere to become contaminated, as the human being living upon earth becomes contaminated of body and soul.” – Our Lady, July 25, 1979

LEARN THE VALUE OF SUFFERING
"My child, you will act in great haste. I know the heavy cross that you carry at this time. But you must understand, My child, that all purification will be given in manner that the human mind cannot comprehend. When you learn the value of suffering you will find it a joy, for the graces will be given in abundance." – Our Lady, May 30, 1973

SUFFERING ALLOWED FOR PURIFICATION
"At the end of penance is a great joy. Man has forgotten and closed his heart to the value of suffering. The Father, the Eternal Father and your God, allows you to suffer for reason. It is the purification of your soul.” – Our Lady, March 29, 1975

SUFFERING IS PURIFICATION
"The shepherds, Our representatives in your world, will lead their sheep with firm discipline and faith--faith in the light. They will remove all destructive minims of modernism and humanism from their teachings. Suffering is purification. The world is filled with soul destructors. Discard, cast off these evil trappings and clothe yourself in sackcloth. Go forth through the world as pilgrims so that you may return eventually to the Kingdom from whence you came." – Jesus, July 15, 1973

PURIFICATION OF SOUL MUST BE A PERMANENT TRANSITION
"There is much speculation, My child, upon the coming plan of Heaven. All is in the will of the Father. There is no need to await dates, or to know dates, for the purification of your soul must be a permanent transition.” – Our Lady, August 21, 1973

MORTIFICATION
"You are, My child, too concerned upon the opinion of man. Better that they reduce you to a grain of sand, for the graces you receive are great in abundance. It is in mortification that the purification of the soul is speedy.” – Our Lady, October 2, 1974

CRUCIBLE OF SUFFERING
"I cannot promise you a life now filled with glory and the material. Your road will be filled with thorns. You will understand in the future that all trial was for your purification. We will send many--We will allow many to approach you to form your crucible of suffering. This is the plan of the Father as you continue as the voice-box from Heaven. We caution you to remain far from the world that has fast gone into darkness.” – Our Lady, April 14, 1973

PURIFIED BY PENANCE AND CONFESSION
"When a man has stepped over the threshold and allowed himself to fall into mortal sin, he must be purified by trial, but he must also, My children, be purified by the rule of penance and confession. What manner of evil is being set now upon mankind that compels him to lose his soul by rejecting the Sacraments, by no longer confessing to his confessor, but coming to receive My Son in sacrifice, while his soul is degraded by sin of mortal nature!” – Our Lady, September 7, 1976

WAY OF THE CROSS
"Your lives upon earth shall be a constant struggle to avoid the snares of satan. This is the way of the cross, My children, and every man, woman, and child shall travel this road in order to be purified and to enter the Eternal Kingdom of your God. I say unto you, My children, never since the time of Sodom, and never since the earth went through the trial of being cleansed by great waters, shall man see what will soon come upon him for his sin, for his succumbering to the pleasures of the flesh, and for discarding his God for all of the creatures and spirit of darkness, allowing the prince of darkness, satan, your adversary, to gain control of your country and your world.” – Jesus, September 7, 1976

ONLY A PRIEST TO DISTRIBUTE HOLY COMMUNION
"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.
"There is no need, My child, for women to rush into the sacred portals. There are enough throughout the world, men consecrated and chosen as ministers of the Eternal Father, of the Body and Blood of His Son, to distribute among mankind this sacred Body. I have cried tears of great sorrow. I am truly the Mother of Sorrows, as I watch this constant desecration of My Son's Body!” – Our Lady, September 6, 1975

WHY THE SUFFERING?
"I do not wish to repeat at this time the ever increasing list of abominations being committed in My House. I only say unto you to hasten, harken, and listen, for you shall not receive another warning of this nature.
"All that is evil shall fall. Trial upon trial, calamity upon calamity, until all that remains will rise up, will be purified, will be purified so that the gathering shall glorify and adore God the Eternal Father, and the gathering shall no longer set man up as an idol to worship in humanism.
"My children, you ask why the suffering? It is a sad but proven fact that many will not turn back until they are brought to their knees. You see, My children, when you pamper your human bodies, when you gather all the material goods of your world, you are not nourishing your soul; you are not accepting the Spirit of light; but your world is giving to you the spirit of darkness, and buying your soul. And many have sold their souls to get to the head; many within My House have sold their souls to get to the head.” – Jesus, February 1, 1977

ALL MUST BE PURIFIED
"You must not take the knowledge of hell from the minds of the children and your sheep, pastors! There is a hell, the abyss of satan, and there is a place of purging. All must be purified, through trial, if necessary, before they can enter the eternal Kingdom.
"Heaven was made, My children, for all, but all do not enter. The Faith must be accepted. Many shall enter, but in this present trial and the trials and chastisements which will soon come upon you, only a few will be saved.” – Jesus, December 6, 1975

“PURIFY YOURSELF UPON EARTH BY PENANCE AND SACRIFICE”
Veronica - Our Lady wants it known that you must purify yourself upon earth by penance and sacrifice, or you will have to remain in a temporary state of suffering until you are purged and the Father knows you are shining, to enter into the Kingdom. The soul will be purified before it enters the Kingdom. – December 31, 1972

YOUR GOD-GIVEN CONSCIENCE
"My child and My children, you must impress this upon the clergy in a kind and charitable manner: you will tell them that they must restore the good Book to its natural--to its natural being, which has given way to modernism and humanism. By this I mean, My child and My children, that the knowledge of hell and purgatory has been removed from among you. The children are growing up in a world that has been given to satan, and there is not much that you can do at this time other than pray, do penance, and guard your homes well. You will protect your children by indoctrinating them into the legion of good, purified souls who follow Jesus, My Jesus, with this prayer: 'My Jesus, my confidence!'
"You will always remember, My child and My children, that when the struggle to remain on the narrow path has 'taken all out of you,' as you say, you must remember that eventually you will all be held accountable for your soul. There is not one person who can follow you at the same time over the veil and stand up for you when you are being judged. For every man, woman, and child of conscionable age will be their own master towards their soul. In other words, My children, you must have your God-given conscience forward and placed before you always.” – Jesus, March 18, 1983

A ROAD OF SACRIFICE AND DEPRIVATION
"You ask Me, My child, why We don't just put the heavy hand down on mankind, and that would be the end of the sinning. No, My child, the Eternal Father knew that once satan came into the world and was released from hell with all his demons, He expected many to fall to his cajoleries. However, though they fall, they must pick themselves up and walk a rough road, the road of the cross, back to Heaven. It will be a road of sacrifice and deprivation; however, in this way, My children, can you be purified for an entrance into Heaven." – Our Lady, October 5, 1985

THE SECRET
"Each time that you spot your soul, We shall have to send severe penance.... We do not wish for you to do penance across the veil; therefore, in your human state you must suffer much. It is this manner that is used by the Father to prepare you when you come over the veil. That is the secret, My child, of suffering.
"For We keep, as you would say in your human language, a sheet for scoring: those of merit, and those that do not add to merit. Each side with non-merit We cleanse by suffering, trials. Learn, My children, the value of suffering. They are sent to you for reason, for much of your suffering is your salvation." - Our Lady, April 13, 1974

LIVES OF THE SAINTS
"The greatest trials are given, My children, to those who are on the narrow road to the Kingdom.... If you will study the past lives of your saints, My children, you will understand why I say that penance and suffering are truly the way of the cross." - Our Lady, October 2, 1976
