Q. May the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Holy Spirit guide me in asking a question of you.
I have found your website by looking for the Divine Mercy devotion, among other devotions. I have been reading it for several weeks now. You speak clearly, thoughtfully, and truthfully it seems to me.
I am a Catholic trying to say “yes” to the Lord as best that I am able. Since reading your website I have been drawn to daily Mass. I started going this week this is a big change. I am doing action instead of thinking about action.
I am moved to pray for the intentions of the pope, to pray for conversion of sinners, dedicate my hearing of the Mass to Mary's Immaculate Heart, and for reparation of sin my own and for others. Also, I pray for the souls in purgatory.
My Faith has been “augmented” I thank you for that. Peace of mind is another thing. I have read your take on the state and events in the church. I think you may be mostly correct.
We seem to be at the “end of these times”. In looking at what other “end time” mystics and seers are saying I am bothered by “Coherence”. In particular a website dedicated to the “little pebble” with links to AOT Alliance of Truth.
This is very “Theological” reasoning (beyond me) offered there about who the “little pebble” is and how he fits in to the “end times”. Would you look into it? Does its message cohere with Truth? Or should one stay away from it?
I will be plowing through “Veritatis Splendor” I am trying to find the truth to do my part as best I can and to guide my family for their eternal good.
May Our Lord Jesus Christ Bless you and keep you.
Sincerely in Christ
TC
A. Your kind words Glorify God, and within those words you have answered your own questions and concerns.... What have the documents from The M+G+R Foundation that you have read done for you? You yourself state:
Since reading your website I have been drawn to daily Mass. I started going this week this is a
big change. I am doing action instead of thinking about action. I am moved to pray for the
intentions of the pope, to pray for conversion of sinners, dedicate my hearing of the Mass to
Mary's Immaculate Heart, and for reparation of sin my own and for others. Also, I pray for the
souls in purgatory. My Faith has been “augmented” I thank you for that. Peace of mind is
another thing. I have read your take on the state and events in the church. I think you may be
mostly correct.
On the other hand, when you come across the many self appointed end times "mystics and seers" you are correctly troubled by lack of Divine Coherence and ask us for an opinion. These self appointed mystics and seers and their "visions and prophecies" are precisely what was meant by Revelations 12:15 - "The serpent, however, spewed a torrent of water out of his mouth after the woman to sweep her away with the current."
The woman is "the truth bearer" and the referred to "torrent of water" is designed to sweep away the truth.
As you see, you have answered your own question about the "little pebble" and others. You will be further edified and fortified as you "drink" the nourishing contents of H.H. John Paul II's Veritatis Splendor
May the Holy Spirit of God continue to guide you so that, you in turn, lead your family to the True Light - Jesus Christ!
From J/C @ USA [Published on November 17, 2004]
Q. I read with interest this article posted on your website, The Seven Capital Vices of the Movements, and have witnessed first hand all the issues the author addresses.
It was distressing to me because I belonged to a movement within the Church for many years, although not one of those mentioned. It was within this community I was indoctrinated with a deep love of the Universal Church, and placed beneath the Cross of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
I credit this community with the formation of my faith. It gave me the direction I did not get in the greater Catholic community. Because of the example given to me by the members of this community I have seen the gospel incarnated in poverty, meekness, gentleness and deep reverence for our Lord and King.
As I said I witnessed the issues mentioned in the article, but within this particular community I never saw them come to fruition.
Obedience and humility were the rule, and submission to the Church authorities. But with divisions and factions becoming the norm it is nearly impossible to know which way Mother Church is going.
More and more I see that Our Lady did not appear on the earth with just some nice advice. She really is the one Jesus has given us to bring us through times so confused and evil that no one else could lead us. I consider myself a daughter of the church, and I pray daily that our Lord will make me so.
In Christ,
L/C
A. Thank you for a lovely witness. You were certainly Blessed to have found such group which, obviously, was intent in serving God, like the Blue Army of Fatima, without a hidden agenda like most, i.e. The Marian Movement of Priests.
We wish that more of the faithful would realize, as you have, that the Ever Virgin Mary does not come to Earth because She has nothing better to do. She, as our true Mother - the Church IS NOT our Mother - is truly concerned about the winds of disorder which have been blowing through the Roman Catholic Church since the early 19th Century. Let us not forget that the French Revolution is the child of the abuses committed by the French Nobility empowered by the Church. Just like it has happened in the 20th Century in Latin America, i.e. Pinochet Regime in Chile, Fujimori in Per, amongst others.
On the "Mother" issue - Mary was declared Mother of the Church by H.H. Paul VI ate the closing of Vatican II, for the Church, composed of the living stones, which are the faithful, and well anchored on its foundation - Christ - is the Mystical Body of Christ.
The "Mother Church" concept is another Vatican invention designed to psychologically manipulate the faithful better and its has no theological nor mystical foundation.
From LR @ USA [Published on November 12, 2004]
Q. The election of George Bush has left many of us in shock. I live in New Hampshire. I do not belong to any Fundamentalist church. I pray daily for world peace. I pray daily for the USA. I pray daily for those I love and those I do not love.
I learned respect for other's beliefs. Now I am told that I am one of those people who is not considered "Moral" because I voted for Senator Kerry.
I am shocked that it really happened, that so many citizens of the US believe that morals' is more important than war, killing, responsibility as a citizen in the world above all else.
How many of us stormed Heaven with our prayers that Sen. Kerry win? How many of us knew how terrible these times will become very soon? I must remember though that millions came out to vote against Bush.
I am shocked that those people tricked into voting for Bush will never see the trick of how they were maneuvered.
I am in such shock I have been unable to pray for the past few days.
Pray for those of us who didn't vote for Bush.
LJR
A. We are also in shock, but for a different reason. What part of the Posting of November 6 in our News Commentary did you not understand?
miguel de Portugal does not make the Rules. He, in His Name and as a true gift from God - NOT from m de P, explains step by step what is taking, and will take place so that all may see the Loving Hand of our Creator extricating ourselves from the horrendous situation we have placed ourselves in - AGAIN! - after the Flood of Noah's time. This should be consoling to all His true children - like you.
Therefore, we must ask this question: Where and How are we failing in discharging our Divinely Appointed duties?
Is it that we have not made clear enough what Our Lord Jesus Christ taught us in Gethsemane? "... Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done." [Lu 22:42 ]
We are encouraged to ask what we may personally desire, but we MUST ALWAYS defer to the Infinite Wisdom of God!
Is this so difficult to understand?
From TJ @ USA [Published on November 3, 2004]
Q. The question I have, and the one point on which your website leaves me with some degree of doubt, is in your self-certainty and seeming lack of fear that you may be wrong about even some finer points.
Some examples might include some of the more widely disputed Marian apparitions, such as Medjugorje, or your certainty of the evil of St. Escriva and Opus Dei, or the degree to which you dismiss the authority of the Catholic Church.
Let me state for clarity that the point is not to argue any one of those points right now, but to suggest that what I understand about the spirit of humility and submission that has been shared by all of the saints would appear not to allow for such certainty.
Still, bluntness is not a sin, and prophets are not known for pussyfooting their messages, so this is not a reason for me to dismiss you.
The question that stands is, do you have your doubts, do you struggle as most saints did to discern what God's message to you is, and do you worry that when you are sure it is God's word you are hearing, that you may in fact be deceived and be spreading Satan's errors mixed with much truth?
If he has laid snares for us everywhere, how can we be sure that those snares don't include the exciting realization that we see through the deception placed out there to snare the masses. The easiest way to snare a spy is to create a trap for him to discover and excitedly dismember, maneuvering himself into the position you want to put him into.
Thank you for your patience in reading this and your perseverance in what is overall a very valuable service you perform for all.
Best regards, and God bless you.

A. First of all, we Thank You! for your communication as well as for the opportunity that you have given us. Actually - your question was taken by miguel de Portugal (m de P) as a cue from God to address this issue now.
First of all - you, as most Roman Catholics, unconsciously, grant more power to satan than to God. As we have explained elsewhere, satan has no other choice but to serve God Who Is above all; He Who contains, yes - contains, the Universe must be served by all without exception.
Without searching far for illustrations of this - Review the first chapter of the Book of Job and a certain Chapter of the First Book of Kings.
Why do most Roman Catholics feel and act that way? Subtle programming by the Church Administration to better manipulate and push the faithful through Fear as opposed to lead the faithful through Love, as St. John Bosco demonstrated to the world when he lived what Jesus taught.
Of course satan exists (in spite of the claims of the modernists) and he has a field day on those who are away from God. Teresa de Jess (de Avila) illustrated that very well in her book Interior Castle; however, if you were in my presence, now we could show you in less than 60 seconds its mechanism. Not because m de P is very smart, wise or holy. No! It is because God showed it to him just like He revealed to him the Secret Concept of the Most Holy Trinity and how the Power of Love works.
Anyone who believes that satan can interfere between God and someone who has chosen, not be default but by the Grace of God, to serve Him blasphemes for he/she is ascribing more power to satan than to God.
I believe that it was Teresa de Jess who said that it if it was the Will of God that she should go to hell, she would joyfully do so for she wanted to do His Will above all. Utilizing this same line of true thinking and logic - satan can only snare m de P to the extent God may allow it; and if He does, it is because it will be good for m de P and teach him a lesson that he could not learn otherwise. Thus, was it really a snare? Was satan interfering with God's work? Of course not! satan was serving God as he has to do without choice!
Does m de P has doubts at times? Of course! That is his assurance for not drifting away from God and become self-reliant as the Church Administrators have at the expense of fulfilling the plans of God. The day m de P cease having doubts - he is finished! Just like the Church is now (albeit only temporarily); only good to trample underfoot as the salt that has lost its power [Luke 14:34-35].
Regarding disputed Marian Apparitions - specifically Medjugorje. It is amazing to us how blind people are since we have been accused of fully endorsing Medjugorje. We have said that the original Bishop of Mostar was right when he endorsed it and also right when he condemn it.
Do we need to call Daniel to read that handwriting in the wall [Daniel 5:13-16]. People! Please! - invoke the Holy Spirit of God more frequently so that all that needs to be clear to each one of you, then becomes clear. The Holy Spirit of God IS NOT just a white dove to use as decoration!
You ask about m de P's certainty about his allegation regarding the flawed theology of Escrivá and his dubious holiness. m de P knew that Escrivá's work was not from God even before he knew anything about them. Then, without seeking it and as it is customary - God starting to shower m de P with concrete and factual proofs to confirm what He had already revealed to him supernaturally.
You ask about "The degree to which m de P dismiss the authority of the Catholic Church." As you have noticed, we defend the Catholic Faith to the extent few individuals can - because God rewarded our Faith with Knowledge. That is - m de P no longer "believes"; he "knows". You will see him going to pray to a cemetery for eight days starting on November 1st to secure eight Plenary Indulgences for the souls of purgatory. Why? Because he no longer "believes", he "knows" that it is true and his dear brethren trapped in Purgatory need our attention.
You will also see m de P partaking of the Sacrament of Reconciliation every 3 or 4 weeks. Why? Because he knows "how it works" and how valuable it is.
We only dismiss the authority of the Catholic Church Administrators when, and as God Wills it, to protect the little Faith left; - that is, the Faith that they have not managed to destroy (yet!) through their 1600 years of serving Mammon and not God!
Is this dismissal, or the degree of it, any different than the dismissal of the authority of the Church predecessor, the Temple Masters in Jerusalem, by John the Baptizer, Paul and even Our Lord and Master Jesus Christ?
Should the faithful believe what miguel de Portugal states and instructs? We have addressed that in his brief biography but, recapping: That is frankly not the concern of miguel de Portugal. His only concern is to transmit what God Wills and strive to do so in the most clear form for the Faithful to understand.
Brothers and sisters - it is that simple! Complications result from "prudent" men who label everything as "mystery" to better manipulate the faithful.
Once again, Thank You! for the opportunity and for presenting such a thorny question in such a proper manner.
From CH @ New Zealand [Published on October 31, 2004]
Q. My attention has been so drawn to the various Marian apparitions and the events surrounding them, that have happened over the years, that I now question what is the purpose of our lives at all?
If we are so sinful and doomed, what real hope is there for humanity? Why would we continue living our day to day lives as we do - for what purpose?
Unfortunately I have allowed this preoccupation to infiltrate many aspects of my life and leave me with a feeling of hopelessness.
CH
A. "What is the purpose of our lives at all?" you ask. Well, to answer that question, and to shed some light upon the rest of your concerns, we must first share with you the purpose of Creation - as revealed to m de P by God.
We must remember that God created us in His image. That is, if we take any of the traits found in a human being, except sin, of course!, and raise it to its maximum perfection - that is how "God Is" in that particular aspect - be it Love or Mercy or Justice, etc.
With that as a backdrop, we shall then ask you: When you (and most humans who are not psychologically ill) experience a situation/event which makes you very joyful, what is the first action you wish to take? Isn't it to share that joy and happinness with someone?
God lives in perfect Joy and His Love is perfect. Therefore, if we, miserable as we are, wish to share our joys and love with someone, God, Who Is Perfect, Willed to do the same in a Universal Scale, thus He created the Universe, to sustain us, so that He could have us to share in His Joy and Love. It is that simple!
We were to live in a Paradise-like state, as depicted by Adam and Eve before the fall, but God, in His utmost perfection, allowed us a Free Will; man misused it and fell.
Since satan, out of jealousy, caused our fall, thus, the missing the original opportunity to live in the company of God in Eternal Happiness, God had to devise another plan to "get His children back on track."
He sent His prophets; they were killed. He sent His Son to show us the Way - Jesus Himself - the Word Made Flesh - but His physical body was killed also. However, Being God incarnate, Jesus left a concrete legacy that would help us journey through Time with a minimum of difficulties, so that we could finally be reunited with Him and "retake" the Blissful life that God, the Father, had originally intended for us to have with Him.
In comes the Church Administration and sells itself, thus thwarting again God's Joyful plans for His children. He then utilized several humans within the Church to force the Church Administration back on the right track. Francis of Assisi was one of them - from the cross He commanded Francis to "repair His Church" for it already was almost in ruins! That did not work well either - as it may be easily discerned by the condition of the world today.
God then sends the Perfect Daughter (of the Father), the Perfect Mother (of the Son) and the Perfect Spouse (of the Holy Spirit), Mary, with ever increasing frequency since early 19th Century, to urgently call us back to the Gospel - to the Way Our Lord Jesus Christ had shown us. She was even the Hostess to the greatest Miracle ever witnessed by so many humans at once in October 13, 1917 at Fatima, Portugal, as to underscore the urgency of Her messages then.
To no avail.... Marian Apparitions are turned by the Church Administrators into Profit Centers and into a tool of manipulation and control while criminally betraying their responsibility.
You ask: "What real hope is there for humanity?" The hope is that God, in spite of our sinfulness and the scandalous betrayal by the Church He founded, will no longer depend on any man or group of men to help us back to Him; He will now "handle it" Himself. We find great hope and consolation in that because man, of himself, as manifested in organized religion, has proven to be utterly worthless as the result of his fallen condition.
You also ask: "Why would we continue living our day to day lives as we do - for what purpose?" For the purpose of assiting God in His direct intervention by "paving the way" so that the suffering that awaits mankind is minimized while Divine Justice is being dispensed and prophecy fulfilled.
Do not be preoccupied nor feel hopeless. Join us, the true children of God, in preparing the world - through individual and collective prayer, acts of reparation and Evangelization, through example, to greet Him and enter with and through Him the true Promised Land of Justice, thus, of Peace.
"How come the Pristine Catholic Faith reached us in spite of the betrayal of the Church Administrators?", you may ask. Because, as we have stated numerous times before, even satan must serve God for He is the only Creator and truly Almighty Who Is above all!
