Locutions to the World

In the midst of reading such a serious post, i had to laugh out loud MS 7 when I read "duck" tape! I sat here picturing you out in your animal laden home in Montana being so prepared that you had supplies for your fowl as well!!

You do have all of your ducks in a row, dont you!! ;-)

 

I used to say, "I can't hold onto money, but I can carry a grudge forever!" It seems I'm being delivered from lack of forgiveness, and I pray it will be completed, and soon. We are called to show the Father's mercy to our brothers and sisters, and I believe that some of worst of the worst will be brought into the fold by the storm. May we all delight our God by our care and love of those who return to Him in the darkest hours!

 

With all respect, Mother Superior, it seems to me the reason people take locutions to heart is because the locutions are promoted as being "approved" by Msgr. Esseff. But his name is no longer on the website. Does he in fact vet the locutions? I would like to hear his opinion on what is currently being promoted by this group, and on the reactions of many on the internet, here and at other websites. I have not found that information.

And yes, I am a skeptic about locutions, although I agree that something is coming down the pike. To me, the Blessed Mother of locutions sounds less like a mother and more like a mother-in-law!

 

Thanks Praetorian
At least you did not shout at me or put on an air of superiority.

 

Aloysius probably knows more about this tha I do, but my understanding of the three days of darkness, you need duct tape because you have to cover your windows so you cannot see out. Using large black garbage bags and duct tape is the way to go. Hope I have this info correct . . .

 

Same here, Kathy. The words "being delivered" fit for me as well. It's like a special Grace is washing away that sin from me

 

To repent, one must have the appropriate faculties. Persitant sin causes insanity. Sin is a form of addiction. Addicts can reach the stage where their ability to choose is lost. They become their addiction and they are irreversibly changed. They are bereft of the ability or inclination to repent and they force their addiction on others. (There is a greater sin in those who are not addicts but who promote the habit in others for financial or political gain.) They are lost to heaven even as they live. Hitler and Stalin may be examples of this. Of course Hitler's supporters caused huge harm. Our prayers are better directed to their potential victims. St Jude advoctes compassion but also great caution in our dealings with people in such a state, even in handling clothing tainted by their sin. We are told not to he afraid of those who can kill just the body but those who can destroy the soul in hell. The Catholic mind recognizes this state. It is not judgement. It is discernment. Of course our Holy Father will show the members of sinful lobbies the love of God and offer them refuge in Our Holy Mother Church even if they cannot respond in kind. He will never, however, support their lobbies. Political correctness is one of the greatest sins of our times. It is presented as consideration but is really control. Political lobbies are the greatest offenders. Do you want a man dressed as a woman sitting beside your child at mass. How far does the welcome go. How far the compssion.

 

In all honesty, I don't know except my husband is very good fixing things with duct tape, and hardly anything else...lol shhhhh!

 

You can fix anything with duct tape. Anything!

 

Is it ours to judge? I don't want a transgender person sitting next to my kid at Mass either, but I sure as heck wouldn't be unkind to them. Its the priest's job to handle it. I wouldn't not have a homosexual person at my dinner table just because they were gay. I've had several! But I would have their partner and them take seperate bedrooms and respect my home, JUST LIKE I WOULD MY OWN KIDS AND THEIR GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIENDS.
If they choose to be offended, that's their problem, not mine. Its my house.
St. Paul was the worst of the worst. He actually held Stephen's cloak while others stoned him to death. I bet he even went through the pockets of his cloak eh? But God USED HIM. You and I know hundreds of stories of redeemed souls. Satanists who sacrificed children who are now God fearing Christians etc. NO ONE is exempt of God's mercy if Grace so chooses.

I

Are you judging me?

 

Not at all. As a matter of fact, I agree with what you said 95%. I'd say you were spot on in my book. I know our Lady tells us just to love, love, love and I'd be just as comfortable being a mama bear and sit at the door sharpening my claws with a smile...I know how I get...I do think our Lord is asking us to get the heck out of our comfort zone. Its happening more everyday don't you think? Step out and let go....without reserve. I find it very hard for this mom of seven kids and seven grandkids to give up the control, but since I've been flat on my back in bed and hobbling around with everyone waiting on me (which I hate!) I have found a place of kindness and quiet that I didn't know I had. God is good.

 

It's very important to keep the house looking good if we can. A sign of hope. I'll be glad when the week is over as these locutions are doing my head in. We will know for sure in the next week if they are authentic.

 

I know what you mean. I said I don't believe in them but there are other indications of trouble so I have taken a roll of cash out just in case and got some supplies in. It's done my head in too.

 

Dear Mother S., None of these answers the question of whether Msgr. Esseff is still associated with the locutions site, whether he approves and endorses the recent messages (particularly the ones warning of doom next week), or whether he understands the frenzy these messages have evoked.

Unlike many priests who have online ministries, he does not engage online with his readers.

 

The bottom line
