GOD THE FATHER SPEAKS TO HIS CHILDREN
GOD THE FATHER ^

Posted on 12/06/2002 4:53:52 PM PST by NYer

"I have already told you and now I say again: I cannot give My beloved Son another time to prove My love for men! I am now coming among them in order to love them and to make them know this love, assuming their image, their poverty. Look, now I am putting aside My crown and all My glory to take on the appearance of an ordinary man!"

"Peace and salvation," He said, "to this house and to the whole world! May My power, My love and My Holy Spirit touch men's hearts, so that all mankind may turn to salvation and come to its Father, Who seeks it, to love and to save it!

Let My Vicar Pius X1 understand that these are days of salvation and blessing. Let him not fail to take this opportunity to call the attention of the children to their Father, Who is coming to help them in this life and to prepare their everlasting happiness.

I have chosen this day to begin My work among men because today is the feast of the Precious Blood of My Son Jesus. I intend to bathe in this Blood the work I am beginning, so that it may bear great fruit among all mankind.

This is the real purpose of My coming:

1.      "I am coming to banish the excessive fear that My creatures have of Me, and to show them that My joy lies in being known and loved by My children - that is, all mankind, present and future.

2.      I am coming to bring hope to men and nations. How many have long since lost it! This hope will make them live in peace and security, working for their salvation.

3.      I am coming to make Myself known just as I am, so that men's trust may increase together with their love for Me, their Father. I have but one concern to watch over all men and love them as My children. The painter delights in contemplating the picture he has painted. In the same way, it is My pleasure and delight to come among men, the masterpiece of My creation! Time presses. I wish men to know as soon as possible that I love them and that I feel the greatest happiness in being with them and talking with them, like a father with his children.

I am the Eternal One, and when I was alone, I had already thought of using My power to create beings in My image. But material creation had to come first, so that these beings could find their means of sustenance; it was then that I created the world. I filled it with all the things I knew would be necessary to men: air, sun and rain, and many other things that I knew to be necessary for their life.

In the end, man was created! I was pleased with My handiwork. Man sins, but it is precisely then that My infinite generosity shows itself.

In the Old Testament, I created and chose prophets to live among men. To them I told My desires, My sorrows and My joys, so that they could communicate them to everyone.

The more evil grew, the more My goodness urged me to communicate with just souls so that they could transmit My commands to those who were creating disorder. Thus, I was sometimes obliged to be strict in order to reprove them;not to punish them - that would only have done harm - but to take them away from vice and lead them to their Father and their Creator, whom they had forgotten and ignored in their ingratitude. Later, evil overwhelmed men's hearts to such an extend that I was compelled to send calamities upon the world to purify men through suffering, the destruction of their possessions, or even their death. These were the Flood, the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, man's wars against man, etc.

"I desire only this: that one day, or at least a Sunday, be dedicated to me under the title of Father of All Mankind." - The Eternal Father To Mother Eugenia Elisabetta Ravasio on July 1, 1932, the Feast of the Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

I also desire that every family prominently display the picture I will later show to My "little daughter". I wish every family to be able to place itself under My special protection in this way, so that they can honour Me more easily. There, everyday, the family will share with Me its needs, its work, its sorrows, its sufferings, its desires, and also its joys, because a Father must know everything that concerns His children. I do know it, of course, because I am there, but I love simplicity. I know how to adapt Myself to your condition. I make Myself little with little ones; I make Myself an adult with adults; and the same with the elderly, so that all may comprehend what I wish to tell them for their sanctification and My glory.

How to read the Icon of The Father?  By Luigi Brazzale

Our Almihty Father wants men to contemplate His face through a sensitive image, through an iconographic image.

Almighty God is patient and merciful in attracting the hearts of men, these hearst poisoned by the enemy in hell. Here is the Icon of God our Father.

Who is the Father? He is known by  "Holy and Almighty God" and "Abba, Father" by Jesus of Nazareth and all His brothers. He is dad, my dad. Here is the title of the icon, "Abba, Almighty God our Father!"

Padre Andrea tells us that God our Father has wanted this Icon to communicate His goodness, force, and power. Also the theological content that Lia Galdiolo expresses is faithful to the traditional doctrine of the Church and to recent private revelations which are considered valued and authentic. When considered in this light, the Icon, when used in this manner, can have a notable spiritual benefit - an artistic and elevated form of contemplative prayer.

A son honors his father, and a servant his master. If then I am a Father, where is my honor? -MAL 1:6  

In 1932, an extraordinary event occurred. A nun named Mother Eugenia Ravasio reported that God the Eternal Father appeared to her on two separate occasions. The first time was on July 1, 1932. The second time was on August 12, 1932. After a ten year investigation, the Church approved the apparition.

According to the book, "God is Father," there was beautiful, incomprehensible harmony, and finally the appearance of the Eternal Father. Mother Eugenia stated that God our Father sat next to her to reveal His great love for His children. He also stated that He desired a feast in His honor. God our Father gave this message to Mother Eugenia in Latin, a language totally unknown to her.  In our (the Father of All Mankind Apostolate) opinion, Mother Eugenia is one of the greatest lights in our times, the little prophet of a new Church, in which the Father is the center and apex of all mankind, and in which unity is the highest ideal of spirituality. She is a light given by the Father to the world at this time of chaos and darkness, so that we may see the road that has to be followed.

She was born in San Gervasio d'Adda, a small town in the province of Bergamo, Italy, on September 4th, 1907, in a family of peasant background. Quite apart from her spiritual qualities, her work in the social field alone would suffice to ensure her a place in history. In twelve years of missionary activity she opened over 70 centers - each with infirmary, school and church - in the remotest spots of Africa, Asia and Europe. Mother Eugenia returned to the Father on August 10th, 1990.

Interesting. After Garabandal I am a little leary of these apparitions.

Father of All Mankind Consecration and Feast Day

  Several years ago, a separate God The Father of All Mankind Apostolate was formed in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to promote the Father of All Mankind Feast day and consecration. The advisory Board includes many well known priests such as Fr. Renee Laurentian and Fr. Richard Foley, S.J., as well as Mr. John Haffert of the Blue Army.

The Holy Octave of Consecration to God our Father involves eight days of prayer, scripture reading, and meditation. The first seven days serve as preparatory steps leading to the final day of assembly and solemn consecration - The Feast of the Father of All Mankind. Although the consecration can be done at any time by setting aside an eight-day period, it is suggested that it be renewed formally each year ending on the first Sunday of August and that it be renewed each day by praying the chaplet. The Father of All Mankind Apostolate have developed an 8 day consecration and proposed feast day booklet to people to use to consecrate themselves to God The Father of All Mankind. The chaplet to be prayed each day is printed below.

  Advisory Board

Very Rev. Richard Whetstone, J.C.O.L., Fr. Rene Laurentin, Fr. Richard Foley, S.J., Fr. Jacques Daley, O.S.B., Fr. Joseph Chornyak, Fr. David Kriss, Fr. Joseph Feltz, Br. Thomas Somerfield, Fr. Sylvester Catallo, Fr. Michael Semana, Fr. Robert Herman, Fr. Kenneth Keene, Fr. Bill McCarthy, Fr. John Kirk, Fr. John Fernz, Msgr. Geroge Yontz, Fr. Edwin Moran, CP, Paul Bogdon, Esquire, Jeremiah Costello, Ph.D, Dr. Frank Novasack, Dan Lynch, Esquire, Mr. John Haffert, Jeffrey J. Starre, MD, Fr. Reginald DeFour CSSP, Fr. John F. Donoghue, Louis M Tarasi Jr, Esquire and Fr. Don Mantica.

Reads as though written by the AntiChrist.

There is but one God and He is known to us throughout Scripture. In Scripture and experience He is known from three persons but still one God. Those persons are the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

The article is not consistent with Scripture. Man is saved by faith, not works lest any man should boast.... vs the article's appeal that man will work towards salvation. Salvation was peformed on the cross, it is merely for man to accept the Son and through the Son have access to God. The Son is also the incarnation or God made flesh.

Remarkably, the agenda proposed is whlly consistent with the desires echoed when Lucifer became Satan and declared his 5 "I wills".

He seeks the worship of all men and seeks to rebel from God, he seeks to place himself as a counterfeit to God and note the article indicates the person speaking/writing seeks to be worshipped by all men on a Sunday,...quite consistent with the Adversary, whereas our God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit are to be worshipped in all things, without ceasing, no other gods to be placed before Him. It's a 24/7 thing, not simply a Sunday thing.

Or maybe not even a Sunday thing, since the Catholic Church, until recently, gave itself credit for 'changing the Sabbath Day to Sunday'. This article bears an even greater burden for those christians (of which I am one) who believe in keeping the seventh day (the Sabbath) holy.

<>"works-salvation" is known as Pelagianism and it was condemned by St. Augustine in the mid fourth century and the second Council of Orange in 529 a.d. and the Council of Trent. These FACTS never stop some christians from making the false charge we Christians believe in works-salvation. Bearing False witness really isn't nice

Matt 25:31-46...works as criterion of judgement

Luke 18:18-25 Jesus commands him to do a work, give away all his money. Nothing "Faith Alone" there.

Matt 16:27 repay every man for what he has done.....hmmmm, no Faith alone that

Luke 14:13-14 Hmmm more works rewarded

John 3:36 The Greek word for "believes" is "pistuo" and "does not obey" is "apaitheo." So, belief is NOT enough. You must OBEY, i.e. "works"

1 Peter 2:7 - same thing

Romans 1"30...same thing

2 Timothy 3:2..same things

Titus 1:16...same thing

Titus 3:3..same things

John 6:27-29 "What must we do, to <> be doing the works of God

Acts 10:31-35 "and does what is right.." works

Acts 22:16 Ooops, not Faith alone that, is it?

Acts 2:38 oops, not Faith alone that, is it?

1 Corinth 6:11 not Faith alone that, is it?

WE Christian Catholics not only folow the Word of God, we follow ALL The Words of God, not a few verses ripped out of their context.

There is more evidence. But, I think the point is made. Thanks for sharing :)<>

I never appreciated the Sabbath (seventh) day until I began studying it's significance. The Sabbath is one of two institutions which were set up at Creation (marriage was the other) and intended to be a day of rest and communion with the Creator. Imagine the impact on the Christian world if we all observed a full 24 hour day of rest and communion with the Lord! Since I began observing Sabbath my christian experience has been revitalized. Saturday is not an easy day to let go of, but the promised blessings for those who do it are indeed there. As Jesus said, "The Sabbath was made for man, not man for the Sabbath." The significance is incomprehensible unless one does it. And no, I am not a Seventh-Day Adventist.
