Let Us Prepare For the Gift of Martyrdom!
Dear Friends,
I hope you are all well. I am still alive and kickin’. I hope that you are all alive and kickin’, because we must confront together the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21), in which “the Church will enter the glory of the kingdom only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection” (CCC 675-677; http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P1V.HTM). But “IN THE END MY IMMACULATE HEART WILL TRIUMPH!” - Our Lady of Fatima, Portugal, 1917. There will be fulfilled the Protoevangelium (Gen 3:15) – Saint Louis de Montfort!
We are the “generation” (Mt 24:34) of which Jesus spoke about: “For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be” (Mt 24:21)!
Let us rejoice! The great gift of martyrdom! Life is very short, and eternity never ends!!!
Photos of this priest’s martyrdom (Father Miguel AgustÃn Pro) were meant to dissuade Catholics; that’s not what happened!
The images of Miguel Pro’s death were “one of the first modern attempts to use media images to manipulate public opinion for antireligious purposes.” The Cristero War was the result of the brutal anti-Catholic persecution perpetrated by the Mexican government of the early 20th century.

It is not by chance that each of us are alive in this period of the “great tribulation”! There is not lacking the graces for those willing to correspond con these graces, in perseverance in prayer and living their prayer, “THY will be done”, not “MY will be done”!
Saint Louis de Montfort, in his book “True Devotion to Mary” (no. 47), wrote:
“I said that this will happen especially towards the end of the world, and indeed soon, because Almighty God and his holy Mother are to raise up great saints who will surpass in holiness most other saints as much as the cedars of Lebanon tower above little shrubs. This has been revealed to a holy soul whose life has been written by M. de Renty.”
I think there will be this “surpass in holiness” because graces are never wasted, and many people in this period are not willing to follow Jesus with the cross even to Calvary, and so these graces go to those who are willing to love, and thus, suffer with Jesus!
In the Diary of Saint Faustina, no. 342, one reads: “Suffering is the greatest treasure on earth; it purifies the soul. In suffering, we learn who our true friend is. True love is measured by the thermometer of suffering. Jesus, I thank You for the little daily crosses, for opposition to my endeavors, for the hardships of communal life, for the misinterpretation of my intentions, for humiliations at the hands of others, for the harsh way in which we are treated, for false suspicions, for poor health and loss of strength, for self-denial, for dying to myself, for lack of recognition in everything, for the upsetting of all my plans. Thank You, Jesus, for interior sufferings, for dryness of spirit, for terrors, fears and incertitudes, for the darkness and the deep interior night, for temptations and various ordeals, for torments too difficult to describe, especially for those which no one will understand, for the hour of death with its fierce struggle and all its bitterness. I thank You, Jesus, You who first drank the cup of bitterness before You gave it to me, in a much milder form. I put my lips to this cup of Your holy will. Let all be done according to Your good pleasure; let that which Your wisdom ordained before the ages be done to me. I want to drink the cup to its last drop, and not seek to know the reason why. In bitterness is my joy, in hopelessness is my trust. In You, O Lord, all is good, all is a gift of Your paternal Heart. I do not prefer consolations over bitterness or bitterness over consolations, but thank You, O Jesus, for everything! It is my delight to fix my gaze upon You, O incomprehensible God! My spirit abides in these mysterious dwelling places, and there I am at home. I know very well the dwelling place of my Spouse. I feel there is not a single drop of blood in me that does not burn with love for You. O Uncreated Beauty, whoever comes to know You once cannot love anything else. I can feel the bottomless abyss of my soul, and nothing will fill it but God himself. I feel that I am drowned in Him like a single grain of sand in a bottomless ocean.”
“The Great Gift of the Cross” (http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2017/09/the-great-gift-of-cross.html).
But we must not presume that it will be easy and that paradise is automatic for each of us. “The whole of man’s history has been the story of DOUR COMBAT with the powers of evil” (CCC 409). It is the modern church that says that paradise is automatic or that hell and sin do not exist, so that we have no responsibility, now and after death, for our egotistical actions! “The chief punishment of hell is eternal separation from God” (CCC 1035). We were created in the image of God (Gen 1:26-27) and thus, whether we like it or not, we will live for eternity. The people in hell cannot commit suicide!
Our Lady communicated to Don Stefano Gobbi on November 22, 1992 (“To The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons” (http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/):
“My beloved ones and children consecrated to my Immaculate Heart, listen to the words of your heavenly Mother, who is gently preparing you and leading you to live through these events, because the times which were foretold to you by the prophet Zechariah have now come. `An oracle of the Lord: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be completely scattered; and then I will turn my hand against the little ones. `An oracle of the Lord: In all the land, two thirds of them will be cut off and perish; and one third shall be left. `I will pass this third through fire; I will refine it as silver is refined, test it as gold is tested. `It will call upon my Name, and I will hear it; I will say:"This is my people.” And it will say: “The Lord is my God.” ‘ (cf. Zech 13:7-9)”
“I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be completely scattered; and then I will turn my hand against the little ones”. I believe that this coincides well with the prophecies of the FALSE POPE, who will corrupt “the little one”, especially those who have been abandoned by their parents and their pastors who have the vocation from God to protect the souls entrusted to them.
“Two thirds of them will be cut off and perish…” This means two thirds will lose their immortal souls in this period, and the third that saves their souls will pass “through fire; I will refine it as silver is refined, test it as gold is tested”! Right now there are very few people who have the courage to take the risk to open their eyes to the signs of the times so as not to be hypocrites (Lk 12:56; Mt 16:3; 24:32-33,51), to go against the tide of the great majority, strongly manipulated by the highly controlled mass media, who have taken the easy way of being “politically correct”, and in particular today, in the Catholic Church (“Politically Correct in the Church – EWTN”; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2017/10/politically-correct-in-church-ewtn.html)! In this period of the crucifixion of the Church, the purification of the Church and of the world, we are called to not flee from the sufferings that Jesus offers and shares with us, but to offer our lives for the Body of Christ, the Church, as did Mary, the “Queen of martyrs”, at the foot of the cross with Jesus totally covered with blood and wounds and humiliations and abandoned by almost everyone. Thus most of the very few who remain faithful to the uncomfortable truth in this period will later offer with their blood the grace for the conversion of many others so as to arrive to the prophesied one third who will save their immortal souls for all eternity. “The blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians” – Tertullian.
I wrote in my article, “Coronavirus - True Hope NOT False Hope” (https://spir-food.blogspot.com/2020/05/coronavirus-true-hope-not-false-hope.html):
“I believe (my opinion) that there is a real possibility that Pope Benedict XVI will be killed in March 2021 (“Saint Peter returns the keys to Jesus”; http://spir-food.blogspot.com/2018/09/saint-peter-returns-keys-to-jesus.html). I do not remember where, but I read that Padre Pio spoke about two false popes in this period, the first he called a false pope, and the second the devil, that is much worse than the first; Bergoglio has nominated many Masonic cardinals. Perhaps in 2021 we will have another pope more like a dictator. Then I believe that there is a real possibility that the priests and bishops of the world will be required to take an oath of blind obedience to the invalid Pope (“Soon Oath of Blind Obedience to Bergoglio”; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2018/02/soon-oath-of-blind-obedience-to.html), just before there will be a new Roman Missal to be inaugurated at Easter 2021, in which there will not be the necessary words at the consecration for the validity of the Mass: “This is my Body” (…) “This is … my Blood” (“The Validity of the Holy Mass”; https://spir-food.blogspot.com/2019/11/the-validity-of-holy-mass.html). Then I believe that without the Eucharist in the tabernacles of the world, which is what “restrains” the manifestation of the antichrist (2Thess 2:3-8; perhaps in June 2021), there will be a great persecution, in particular against the few priests and bishops who do not obey the oath of blind obedience to celebrate the new invalid mass. Padre Pio talked about a particular month of May that would be very difficult, a month that will not be forgotten! “Each of the priests of my Movement will be this crown of love for me. A crown of lilies, of roses and of cyclamens, all these little children of mine. But no one will be able to resist the power of the Spirit which I will obtain for them. Oh, and even they in great part will be called to the ultimate testimony. But their blood will wash and purify this world, so that from it a new world may be born, renewed in love and consecrated anew to the triumph of God!" (Gobbi: December 26, 1974; Feast of St. Stephen). “The blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians” – Tertullian.
Perhaps after this May, we will witness what Our Lady of Akita, Japan (October 13, 1973) said: “The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead.” Perhaps in June of 2021 we will see the manifestation of the Antichrist (2Thess 2:3) (“The Great Deception of the Antichrist”; https://spir-food.blogspot.com/2019/05/the-great-deception-of-antichrist.html). Those who do not pray or do not pray sincerely (“MY will be done”, instead of “THY will be done”) will not be able to distinguish between the Truth and the beautiful lies of the Antichrist, no matter how intelligent the person might be or might think to be (Mt 24,24; 2Tess 2,11-12; Dan 12,8-10)!
Before “the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition (the Antichrist) … only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed…” (2Thess 2:3-8). Above all what is “RESTRAINING” the “man of lawlessness” is the presence of Jesus Christ as the Truth (Jn 14:6) and especially His real presence in the Most Holy Eucharist of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass; Satan seeks to trivialize both so as to deprive us of God’s guidance and His powerful protection and help. Before the manifestation of the Antichrist, “the continual burnt offering” (Dan 8:11; 12:11), will be taken away, and the “sacrifice and offering” will cease (Dan 9:27), which Jesus foretold (Mt 24:15). This sacrilege is the ultimate “ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION” (Mt 24:15; Mk 13:14; 2Thess 2:3-4; Dan 9:27; 11:31)! For the last three and a half years of this period of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21) “the continual burnt offering” (Dan 8:11; 12:11), that is the VALID Holy Mass, THE EUCHARIST, will be TAKEN AWAY, in a sly and disguised way, in all the public churches in the world (Dan 12:11; Rev 13:5) (“The Abomination of Desolation”; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2018/04/the-abomination-of-desolation.html)!
Let us pray for each other so that we might later be “clothed in white robes” (…) after coming “out of the great tribulation” (Rev 7:9-17) for all eternity!”
I wrote in my article, “Italy Will Soon Lose the Eucharist” (https://spir-food.blogspot.com/2020/01/italy-will-soon-lose-eucharist.html):
“The saints tell us that the Catholic Church is the soul of the world. Above all what sustains the Church is the Most Holy Eucharist (Vat. II: LG 11; CCC 1324). Even though the great majority of the baptized Catholics have lost their faith in the Eucharist, Satan knows very well what the Eucharist is and that it is the Eucharist above all which “restrains” Satan (2Thess 2:3-4). Satan already deprived the Protestants of the Eucharist 400 years ago, just as Satan did for many disciples of Jesus (Jn 6:66) 2000 years ago. Thus we are finally quickly arriving to the great prophecy to which Jesus referred to (Mt 24:15) in the Book of Daniel: “And from the time that the continual burnt offering is taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate is set up, there shall be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.” (Dan 12:11; 7:25; 9:27).”
It seems to me that the angels were more wise than we human beings because the “great red dragon” (Satan) with “his tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth” (Rev 12:3-4). Whereas in this period when there are more human being alive than all the generations put together before now, “Two thirds of them will be cut off and perish”!
Recently I was asked if I, Father Joseph Dwight, was willing to celebrate the Holy Mass at Antria with the new rules of the government due to COVID-19.
Here is my answer:
“I Follow GOD Not the Secular State”
