#779 – The Battle Rages, Part 2

“But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” – 1 Corinthians 15: 57

“THE BATTLE RAGES NOW FOR SOULS”
"Now, My child, I give you My peace in courage and perseverance. The strength will be given to you to continue your mission, but know that the battle rages now for souls. Satan will send great forces against you and all who work for My Mother. But know now that Her voice will not be stilled throughout the world, for We will rise up great enemies against these forces of satan. As they seek to send enemies among you, We shall crush them.” -Jesus, October 2, 1974

ROME IN A STATE OF SIEGE
"My child and My children, the world is in great crisis now, My children. The battle rages in the hearts and actions of mankind now. It is truly the war of the spirits.
    "My child, I have asked you to go without sleep, but, My child, have no fear. You shall not be laid low by this lack of sleep. There is reason for it. Penance is always difficult, My child and My children, but at the end of penance is a great joy.
    "My child and My children, Rome is in a state of siege now. You must all pray for your cardinals and your bishops. Because of the love of money, because of the seeking for worldly riches and gain and power, many are selling their soul to get to the head, and they wear the red hats and the purple hats.
    "My children, because there are too few prayers and acts of penance, the Eternal City of Rome is under siege. Communism shall be the scourge of all mankind, but it is only one arm, one talon of the octopus. There are many forces in the world other than the major force of evil.” –Our Lady, May 27, 1978

WAR OF THE SPIRITS RAGES
"I bless you, My children, as the Eternal Father blesses you in the Spirit. Pray a constant vigilance of prayer. Do not discard your armor in sacramentals. The war of the spirits rages. You must keep a constant vigilance." –Jesus, November 1, 1975

“TRUE PRIESTS OF MY SON”
"My children, I have warned you in the past that 666, the man of perdition, the spirit of evil, and all agents of hell now loosed upon your earth shall cause much gnashing of teeth as he sets woe upon your earth.
    "Yes, My children, it is a true fact that only a few will be saved in the final count. You will be fortunate if you can gather into one room the true priests of My Son as the war rages, the war of the spirits, a war far more disastrous than any created by a human being in the past.
    "Your country and all the nations of the world now are fast heading for their own destruction. Because of pride and arrogance and worldly seeking of gain by your leaders, an arsenal of weapons is now stored for your destruction and for the destruction of many nations in your world. My children, you hold your destiny now, for in your free will you will listen to the counsel from Heaven or you will be destroyed.
    "America, My mantle has been spread over you in protection, but you whom I've protected in the past, you also cast Me aside, for when you dishonor My Son, you dishonor His Mother, and you dishonor all of the saints in Heaven.” –Our Lady, April 9, 1977

“YOU ARE NOW LIVING IN THE BATTLE OF THE SPIRITS”
"Penance, atonement, sacrifice, I have asked and cried for. Your country now holds the balance for the destruction of the world.
    "We watch the battle that rages upon earth. Awaken and look with enlightened hearts upon fact and truth. You are now living in the battle of the spirits, the days of approaching darkness.
    "I have chosen to remain upon earth as a Mediatrix between God and man. I will remain here with you, and have sent many guardians upon earth to guide you in the battle ahead.
    "Our hearts and tears fall upon the young, the victims of their elders. The judgment of God will not be understood by human man. Therefore, you will all direct by good example and prayer. Do not seek to castigate your neighbor, but by good example and prayer lead him back onto the road to the Kingdom.
    "There is much error and delusion upon earth. Many have fallen into the ways of the world, leading to a society based on humanism, modernism, and pure satanism. Before the battle is completed, you will have chosen your road and the ultimate eternity for your soul.” –Our Lady, February 10, 1973

GREAT SAINTS CRY FOR VENGEANCE
"My children, why do you not learn the value of suffering? The books of truth have been removed from among you. You must read the lives of the founders of My Son's House and those great saints who cry in Heaven for vengeance upon satan and his agents--now! For many souls are being taken into the abyss.
    "The Eternal Father has set before you the rules and discipline for your salvation. They will not be replaced by the rules created by man to feed his worldly inclination for soul-destruction. Many will sell their souls to satan to get to the head.
    "The House of God, My Son's House, will proceed through great trial. All that is rotten will fall. Satan now rages and will do full battle in the House of God.
    "The greatest hope, My children, I can offer you is that the eventual victory over the evil will lie with your allegiance with My Son. The Father has full mastery over your world, permitting this time of trial in order to separate the sheep from the goats. You will be tried as metals in the fire." –Our Lady, February 10, 1974

A TERRIBLE BATTLE
"All who do not cast aside the warnings given throughout your world by the Queen of Heaven will be saved. The battle that rages throughout your world is a terrible battle, my children, one in which satan has set himself and his armies to gather all those destined for the Kingdom of the Father.
"You are now fighting with the world unseen to your human eyes; therefore, you will depend much on the hidden secrets of Heaven to guide you. Do not be without your armor, found in the sacramentals given to you throughout the ages. Do not cast aside the admonitions of those who came before you, those who were given the rule by the Father, those who were set up to set up the House of God.
"Satan now walks among you; he brings many agents to set confusion and delusion throughout the world. This confusion is not only in your lay life, but is found in the House of God. You can only set the House of God and the world to right by prayer, penance--heavy penance now, and sacrifice.” –St. Peter, July 1, 1973

“THE BATTLE RAGES NOW FOR SOULS”
"You cannot, in your scientific minds, and no man of science will ever have the secret for the restoration of the dead to the living. Life only goes over the veil; it begins a life anew. No dead body shall ever be restored to life until the final judgment at the end of all time. Unto that time, there is a Heaven; there is a purgatory, a place of purging--cleansing; and there is, sadly, a hell, the abode of the damned, the kingdom of Lucifer, the adversary to My Son. The battle rages now for souls, My children.
"Understand that you are living in the latter days. Do not have your minds clouded by those who are skeptic, those who will reason with all man's scientific intellectual knowledge, which is as nothing. For soon, as their minds seek a way out, without prayer, satan will come in, and many will die." –Our Lady, June 13, 1981

“THE BATTLE SHALL RAGE IN ROME”
"Retain everything you can, My children, in this battle against the forces of evil. You will need all of your armor, I assure you. Many of you will test this and find to your great sorrow that you have fallen into the web of satan. Once you leave the narrow road it's most difficult, My children, to return. It will often mean a great sacrifice of life to many to return as martyrs.
"Rome shall go through a crucible of suffering as the good fights with the bad; and I say bad because what could be worse than the forces of evil led by Lucifer, and known to the world as 666. Yes, the battle shall rage in Rome as it rages now throughout your world. He is a man of many faces: 666, Lucifer and his agents.
"The world's people have been alerted to the dangers now existent to your souls. You will all guard your children, for you shall not receive comfort from the enemy. When you become discouraged you will lift your eyes to Heaven and cry out, My Jesus, my confidence!” –Jesus, April 1, 1978

“A WARNING WILL BE SENT TO MAN VERY SOON”
"Prayer, atonement, and sacrifice! My voice grows weak. I have wandered many years throughout your earth begging you to make restitution to the Father for the many offenses being committed in the House of God and in the hearts of human beings.
    "The abyss is open wide; the demons are loosed upon earth. The battle rages. And now the time of the great sorrows has started.
    "My child, My children, I do not come to you to bring words of doom--no, but words of hope and courage. Man has brought upon himself the time for great punishment and chastisement.
    "In the mercy of the Father, a Warning will be sent to man very soon. Should man not heed this Warning, he will be cleansed until there remains upon your earth only those who will set up the Kingdom with My Son.” –Our Lady, October 6, 1973

“REALITY OF MY VISIT TO YOUR GROUNDS”
"Continue, My children, with your prayers of atonement. Many are needed, for there are many souls in darkness.
"All sacramentals have been graced with the power of cure and conversion, the recovery of sick souls and sick bodies.
"Many manifestations will be given to bear witness to the reality of My visit to your grounds. Many instruments of Heaven have been chosen to bring the word in this battle of the spirits. The word of God shall be forever. The Kingdom of God will be triumphant over the darkness. However, these are the Days of days, and the battle rages." –Our Lady, March 18, 1974

THE PEAK OF INIQUITY
Veronica - Now I see a very bright light, and there is a large figure coming forward. Oh, it's an angel. But he has a black band across his chest, and I see in his hand a sword. And he's standing now forward. And now he has the sword in his right hand, and he's pointing it down. I feel as though I am looking up from the earth, and he's pointing the sword down. And in his left hand he has a skull. It's like a--it's a skull, just no skin on it, a skull in his left hand.
    Now up above in the sky I see letters forming: D-E-A-T-H: "DEATH TO THE BODY."
    Now I see over to the right many crosses, many, many crosses. But standing before these crosses are figures of people, but they have on long white gowns. They don't look unhappy. They have on long white gowns. I see hundreds of them.
    Now Our Lady is coming forward.
Our Lady - "You are looking, My child, upon the many martyrs who will come from your earth before this battle has ended. The battle that rages now, My child, upon earth is not one of the body but of the spirits. The spirits of wickedness and darkness now fight the light.
    "When the peak of iniquity has gained its fullness, know that the end is at hand. The Father will allow this as a chastisement to His children.” –April 13, 1974

“THE BATTLE NOW RAGES BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL”
"Even in My Son's churches I have watched My children approaching the Sacred Species, My Son's Body and Blood--His divinity being desecrated by young women, young men, and even middle-aged, wearing satan's emblems! How foolish you are not to recognize the cross and the sacramentals given by the institutionalized churches--the Roman Catholic Church of My Son--even though sadly I have often cried at the many denominations that came from the first Church of My Son. However, the cross is your salvation, and many of My children are wearing Lucifer's symbols. You wear a horn about your neck, and you say it is the Italian horn of plenty. It is not! It is the horn of Lucifer!
"Investigate, parents, what your children are wearing upon the temples of satan--and there are hundreds of them now, My children, in your country and in other nations. Secretly they work to destroy your country, to destroy your children. Openly they work under the names of socialism and communism, but secretly their members labor for Lucifer, for the destruction of souls, under the pain of death. Lucifer is the father of all liars. He was a murderer from the beginning and he brings death, only death to those who foolishly follow him.
"Many other emblems of satan are being sold even in these stores that are called Catholic, My children. Are you laughing at the existence of witchcraft? My children, how foolish you are! Lucifer is upon earth. The battle now rages between good and evil. You are either with God or you are against Him. When you are on the middle road, you will either fall to satan fast, or your brothers and sisters must rescue you in their charity and their abundance of graces.” –Our Lady, November 25, 1978

EVENTUAL VICTORY
"The Eternal Father will send you arms to help in the great battle ahead. It will be a glorious battle, My child, for the eventual victory will see the coming of My Son back to earth." -Our Lady, January 31, 1976

"HE HAS ENTERED MY CHURCH TO DO FINAL BATTLE WITH MY CLERGY"
"Lust and greed, avarice and vanity cloud the minds of men even in the highest places of rank in your world, in your government. Man has given himself to seeking pleasure, pleasures of the flesh that send many into hell . . . unbridled passion, debasement among men.
"As I warned through My Mother in the past, 666 is loosed upon your earth. He has entered My Church to do final battle with My clergy.
"And you must help to avoid having your children contaminated by those who have given themselves to satan. As parents, you cannot sell your children's souls into slavery. You must guard them well. The full measure of responsibility falls upon your shoulders as parents." -Jesus, March 18, 1977

FORCES OF HELL DOING FULL BATTLE AGAINST CHILDREN OF GOD
"The forces of hell are loosed upon your earth; 666 and the agents of hell now take full rule in your governments and the governments of the world. My children, recognize the forces of evil as they enter upon you. Demons from hell shall enter into the body of any man, woman, or child who has fallen from grace.
"I have cautioned you, parents, to protect your children. They must not be without a sacramental upon them! We are now at war, My children, a war of the spirits, far greater a war than man has ever experienced in the history of his creation. It is a war to a final battle. The sheep are being separated from the goats, the wheat from the chaff. My children, have you prepared your household for the test?
"Parents will assume the greatest responsibility for keeping Tradition and Faith, the firm foundation of Faith in the hearts of their children. There will be much woe set upon the earth by the evil one. 666, the forces of hell, are now doing full battle against the children of God." -Our Lady, June 16, 1977

SAINTS WISHED TO LIVE IN THESE DAYS
"The agents of 666 now are loosed in Rome and have entered into the highest places of the hierarchy. It will be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal, till all that remains will come forward out of the cleansing.
"My children, many of those who received sainthood after they came over the veil look forward with envy to these days that you are living in, wishing in their hearts that they, too, could join in this final battle." -Jesus, July 25, 1977

THE MOMENT IS HERE
"I tell you, My children, I counseled you for years: The moment is here in the final battle of the spirits. No one shall escape!
"Satan shall be given his time to claim those who have given themselves to him." -Our Lady, August 13, 1977

A BATTLE TO THE FINISH
"My child and My children, the world has entered into deep darkness of spirit. All of the forces of hell are now loosed upon your earth. The retainer, Michael, was rejected by many, and the evil one, the adversary, satan, had to come forth from the pits, the abyss of hell, to do final battle with mankind.
"My children, recognize the given signs of your time. It is a battle now to the finish; it is a battle now that will lead to the separation of the sheep from the goats." -Jesus, September 13, 1977

HOW MANY PREPARED FOR THIS BATTLE?
"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.
    "Through many earth-years the Eternal Father sent to you prophets; the Eternal Father gave you warnings of what was to come upon mankind. The days approached for the final battle between good and evil, and how many prepared for this battle, My children?
    "In the cities of the United States of America there are forces of evil, dark forces working now in your schools, in your medias of entertainment; and these dark forces have entered into the highest positions of wealth and power.
    "My children, you must understand good and evil. You must seek out knowledge of the supernatural, for knowledge is power to you." -Our Lady, September 28, 1977

DAYS OF THE APOCALYPSE
"Wait and watch, My children; pray much, for the Book of life is unfolding; the pages are turning. You are truly in the days of the Apocalypse. Read the Revelations, My children, and know what lies ahead. As you were told in the past, much will be opened to you, for the days of the Armageddon are here. Read the Revelations, your Apocalypse, My children. Saint John was given the knowledge to reveal to you the days in which you are living. Recognize the signs of your time." -Our Lady, August 21, 1975

“IT IS TRULY THE FINAL BATTLE”
"Guard your children, mothers of the world, guard them against the forces that are loosed upon earth. It is truly the final battle raging with Lucifer.
"You ask Me, My child, why does this have to come about? I say with sadness--I say this for Myself and My Mother: We have used every means possible to bring mankind back onto the right road, but he has chosen his own path, one built on pride, arrogance, and lust.
"My child and My children, you must awaken now before it is too late." -Jesus, June 18, 1991
