Witnesses

What is a witness? How do we become witnesses? Why are there so few witnesses in the world? These are some of the questions answered in this reflection.

Witnesses

Cenacle 4/24/25

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. (Acts 1:8)

What is a witness?

The Catholic definition of witness:

One who can give evidence based on personal and immediate knowledge of a fact, event, or experience. The Christian concept of witness adds to the popular notion the idea of a religious experience to which a believer testifies by his life, words, and actions, and thus gives inspiration and example to others by his testimony. Implicit in Christian witness is also the element of courage in giving testimony, either because others are not favorably disposed or because they are openly hostile to the message of faith being proposed.

In the Good Friday message of 4/7/23, Jesus says He is the “perfect witness of who the Father is.” He then proceeds to teach us what is required to be His witnesses:

4/7/23, Good Friday

It is this new world order of Love that you are called to witness.

John 18:37 “Jesus answered, "You say that I am a king. For this I was born, and for this I have come into the world, to bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears my voice."

I Am the Son of God, one with the Father and Holy Spirit. I came to witness the truth of who God is––Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I came to reveal our Father. I was, and Am, the perfect witness of who the Father is. My every word, thought, action, gaze, and silence witnessed Love–– God.

And from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. (Rev 1:5)

I can do nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek to do not my own will but the will of him who sent me. (John 5:30)

It is impossible to be My witnesses if you have not been transformed into Me by the Spirit so that we are ONE, no longer two.

I Am the voice of the Father, for I spoke only what I heard from Him. My voice, which is the voice of the Father, through the power of the Holy Spirit, has been speaking to you, and through you to My little mustard seed, and to the ends of the world to make you (pl.) My witnesses of the Gospel of new life.

After Ananias gave Saul his sight back through the power of the Holy Spirit, he said to Saul:

The God of our ancestors has chosen you to know his will, to see the Righteous One and to hear his own voice; for you will be his witness to all the world of what you have seen and heard. (Acts 22:14-15)

My voice has taken you (pl.) into the wilderness of your hearts to confront the evil which lies deep within each human being because of sin. My voice has been guiding you through a Path of transformation so that My Word can possess you through My Spirit and you can become one with God, His image and likeness through Me, with Me, and in Me, the new Adams and Eves for the new evangelization.

Disciples Called To Witness: IV, A statement by the Committee on Evangelization and Catechesis by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops:

"Modern man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, and if he does listen to teachers, it is because they are witnesses." ... It is therefore primarily by her conduct and by her life that the Church will evangelize the world, in other words, by her living witness of fidelity to the Lord Jesus - the witness of poverty and detachment, of freedom in the face of the powers of this world, in short, the witness of sanctity.

“The purpose of this [new] evangelization is to bring about faith and conversion to Christ. Faith involves a profound change of mind and heart, a change of life, a ‘metanoia.’”

On this holy Good Friday, prostrate yourselves before My Love crucified and beg our Father to make you the witnesses that will usher in a new earth established with the Reign of My Holy Mother as one with the Reign of the Holy Spirit and My Eucharistic Reign. It is this new world order of Love that you are called to witness.

Jesus desires transformed souls, witnesses, not more intellectuals

3/9/09

I need humble, simple, and generous souls whom I can fill with My grace.

As I reflected on JN 1:10-13, "But to all who received him, who believed in his name, he gave power to become children of God.", Jesus explained to me:

Do you understand, My daughter, what this power is? This power is the power of God, the Holy Spirit. That is why I say you can move mountains. My family of Love Crucified will perform great miracles in My name. You, My humble and little ones, will reveal to the world My power and My majesty...

How do we receive You, my Lord?

Each time you respond in trust to Me, you open wider the doors of your heart, thus allowing Me, My power and grace, to fill you more and more.

JN1:14-18 "And from his fullness have we all received, grace upon grace."

I am the well of living water, of living grace. You need to empty yourselves, being the nothing that you are, pure and empty, so that you can be filled with My living grace... I do not need more theologians in My Church... I need humble, simple, and generous souls whom I can fill with My grace...

I spoke to our Lord about the importance of theologians, but Jesus said that our libraries are filled with great books. He emphasized again that He desires humble, generous souls willing to enter the Cross in Him and be transformed—new men and women filled with the power and fire of the Holy Spirit.

Long-suffering perfects us in love

My little one, you each have been given by God a long-suffering by which God desires to make you His saints of the end times. Through the grace of long-suffering, you are perfected in love if you allow the Spirit to bring into the light of your conscience the darkness that lives in each of your hearts. This process of purification through long-suffering is needed to become God's saints that possess His power to defeat Satan and his principalities.

Abandon yourselves to Me in your long and daily sufferings.

Depend solely on Me to lead and guide you and trust totally in the God who loves you and desires to envelop you in His glory. 4/11/23

The making of a saint, the witnesses of the new evangelization

My little one, I want to explain what makes a saint. My saints are the men and women who have allowed Me to be their Savior. The making of a saint begins when a person has a personal experience of My love, for without this experience, it is impossible to begin the long and strenuous journey into the depth of the heart to encounter yourselves and Me, for it is in the heart of every human being where I dwell.

Saints are not perfect men and women, but the opposite, men and women who come to know that they are imperfect, broken, wounded, and seek the only perfect One, their Lord and Savior. In their many insecurities, I become their security. In their darkness, I become their light. In their wounds, I become their healing balm.

My saints become the nothing that they are, and I become their All. They decrease totally, and I increase totally in them until their ego ceases to exist, and it is I who lives in and through them.

My saints are the new Adams and new Eves purchased by My death and resurrection. My saints, therefore, live in a constant state of awareness of their misery and, therefore, live completely dependent on their good God. My saints have the courage and audacity because of their strong desire to find Me, to follow Me with Mary to the foot of My Cross to gaze into the eyes of Love. Only through this encounter at the foot of My Cross can a soul receive the outpouring of My Spirit to bring them into the illumination of their conscience. The process of the Spirit’s illumination is a long journey that few are willing to take and persevere through. My saints, for love of Me, are the ones who persevere through the death of themselves and rise to new life through Me, with Me, and in Me. This is why My Simple Path to Union With God is My formation for the saints of the end times.4/13/23
