...an indulgence, applicable only to the Souls in Purgatory, is granted to the faithful, who devoutly visit a cemetery and pray, even if only mentally, for the departed. The indulgence is plenary each day from the 1st to the 8th of November; on other days of the year it is partial. (1)

Let us give a break to our brethren in Purgatory – many of whom have no one praying for them. Human rights activists worry much about individuals serving lengthy sentences in earthly prison; they may even run a campaign to shorten the sentence or obtain a parole. Let’s emulate these human rights activists in the supernatural domain and bring joy and relief to the many souls who are waiting to finally go Home to the Father.

We have the consolation to know that those in Purgatory are serving a just sentence since God is Perfectly Just, but... let’s be charitable and, while acknowledging the just sentence, invoke His Divine Mercy (1) upon them by practicing this beautiful devotion.

...British researchers say they’ve identified a “hate circuit” in the brain?

This hate circuit shares part of the brain associated with aggression, but is distinct from areas related to emotions such as fear, threat, and danger...

Zeki said in a journal news release “... hate is a passion that is of equal interest to love. Like love, it is often seemingly irrational and can lead individuals to heroic and evil deeds. How can two opposite sentiments lead to the same behavior?” (1)

If one considers what has been revealed regarding Love in one of our documents (2), this new research result makes logical sense.

...a diocese in southern Germany plans to spend 100,000 euros (130,000 dollars) on a birthday bash at the Vatican for Benedict XVI’s elder brother? (1)

Georg Ratzinger, who is himself a priest, turns 85 on January 15 and wants Mozart’s Mass in C-Minor performed for him in the world-famous Sistine Chapel, German weekly Focus reported. The diocese of Regensburg in Bavaria is flying in a 90-person choir plus 37 musicians from an orchestra in Linz, Austria for the performance, the magazine said.

...the greatest problem/error with the Left Behind series or similar concepts, such as: (allegedly God giving this “message”) I will take some of them into the heavenly realm and the others into a safe refuge not of the earth. Many will be left behind to complete their souls purification before they enter into my rest. ” ...is that is such manner is not the way it will take place.

First we suggest that Steps Nos. 14 through 17 of the Sequence of Events (1) be reviewed.

Then review the following sections in these documents prepared by Lee Penn at our request:

About The False Christ (2) – See, specifically, the section “Christ’s Actions Upon His Return.”

Biblical Prophecies Regarding the Return of Christ (3) – In this Scriptural summary see points 46-53.

Then —against that background— you may better understand the way it will be...

a. The Elect who survive what is to come through Step No. 14 will be literally “raptured” to the safety of a parallel dimension just before God “throws the Earth into its geological cleansing cycle”
b. Once the violence of the “cleansing cycle” is concluded those who were “raptured” to a safe parallel dimension will be slipped back to this dimension.

If this “parallel dimension” talk sounds Star Trekkie or make the reader feel uncomfortable, remember, Heaven, Hell and Purgatory are in what we can call parallel dimensions and not “...in a Galaxy far, far away...” (as in Star Wars).

Even the Elect must have to go through all the purifying steps up to Step No. 14 – otherwise they could not face God. Think of it as Purgatory on Earth.

The above is the best m de P can explain it. It is very clear in his heart since he has experienced/witnessed several times the phenomena described which, undoubtedly, God allowed so that he could better understand what that real “rapture” was all about as it was revealed to him.

The danger of the Left Behind error is that many of the Elect will think that they are in “the wrong group” and despair may ensue... and we know who is the father of despair, don’t we?

... Adam and Eve could not blame the Original Sin for their fall? Their fall caused the Original Sin we bear at birth. So, why did they fall?

Simple: They chose to do their will and not submit to the Will of God... something that far too many humans continue to do.

Therefore, brethren, let us give Adam and Eve a break – most humans have proven that they would have done the same thing even without the Original Sin.

... an alert friend of The M+G+R Foundation may have uncovered the meaning of “China will play a major role” as is prophesied in Step No. 1 (1) of the sequence of events leading to the End of These Times given by God to m de P sixteen years ago in 1992?

The hottest topic in U.S. counterintelligence circles: rogue microchips. This threat emanates from China (PRC) – and it is hugely significant.

The myth: Chinese intelligence services have concealed a microchip in every computer everywhere, programmed to “call home” if and when activated.

The reality: It may actually be true.

The article (2) quoted above describes what may just be the greatest security threat all of the Western world has ever had.

...Colin Powell interview on Meet the Press – predicts new crisis on 1/21/09?

At about 2:35-2:45 minutes into the interview (1), Powell says: “There’s going to be a crisis come along on the 21st or 22nd of January that we don’t even know about right now.

...Vice Presidential Candidate Joe Biden, on Sunday guaranteed that if elected, Sen.. Barack Obama., will be tested by an international crisis within his first six months in power? (2)

Mark my words... It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy.” said Vice Presidential Candidate Joe Biden

Comments: Both gentlemen can surmise —based on the past events and the many “pots on the back burners”, on intelligence information that they already have as part of a viable Presidential candidate team and the economic crisis which is far worse than politicians are willing to reveal— of some very serious problems ahead once Senator Obama if elected President.

However, they will redefine the word “serious” when what they do not expect —will not even consider— is manifested in Time (3) as has been prophesied. That is – we are not talking about the same events.

Why? According to the circular —until that electronic key is used again— it has in storage the following information:

(a) Name of guest
(b) Home address of guest
(c) Number of hotel room
(d) Check in and check out dates
(e) Credit card number and its expiration date.

What they forgot to add was that they also contain the ID card (or passport) number of the guest.

...President Kennedy’s temperament has been defined by his ingenuity and cool head during the Cuban missile crisis, yet that was not his standard profile?

“There was a tendency to put off decisions, whether it was foreign or domestic policies ... to maintain as many options as you can.” notes historian David Coleman of the Miller Center of Public Affairs. (1)

...and God delivers the confirmation of what He revealed m de P on October 1992 regarding the alleged Missile Crisis. (2) The one part missing was whether President Kennedy was part of the charade or was being used. Obviously, he was part of the charade – thus the uncharacteristic cool and steady hand.

...Christians should not celebrate nor glorify Halloween in any way? In a nutshell, this is the background (1) of Halloween:

Halloween has its origins in the ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain. The festival of Samhain is a celebration of the end of the harvest season in Gaelic culture, and is sometimes regarded as the “Celtic New Year”. Traditionally, the festival was a time used by the ancient pagans to take stock of supplies and slaughter livestock for winter stores. The ancient Gaels believed that on October 31, now known as Halloween, the boundary between the alive and the deceased dissolved, and the dead become dangerous for the living by causing problems such as sickness or damaged crops. The festivals would frequently involve bonfires, into which bones of slaughtered livestock were thrown. Costumes and masks were also worn at the festivals in an attempt to mimic the evil spirits or placate them.

First of all it is a pagan celebration; secondly it encourages activities which open doors to the dark side of the spiritual realm; and thirdly it glorifies evil spirits.

We understand that it has become a cultural tradition with no conscious intent to open doors to the dark side nor glorify evil spirits, however, we must not forget a, very appropriate for this discussion, saying: “The way to hell is paved with good intentions.” A child might, after watching a Mighty Mouse cartoon, decide to fly and, with the best intentions in the world, jump off the balcony. He/she will be severely injured or killed. His/her ignorance of the dangers of the force of gravity did not prevent the very sad outcome.

As we often state (2) – there are spiritual laws just as there are physical laws and, our awareness or lack of it do not neutralize them.

Since Halloween is such an ingrained custom —instead of ignoring it we suggest that it is explained to the youngsters what is really at the root of it and then substitute the event with a fun filled costume party— with no ghouls, ghosts, witches, etc. costumes allowed. What is wrong with dressing as Michael the Archangel or Alexander the Great? How about a pint sized Cleopatra? So little Johnny wants to be dressed as a “meanie”? Fine! How about an Inquisitor’s costume? Attila the Hun?

Yes, we understand that to “go against the tide” takes great effort; but we should also be cognizant of the fact that the sewer we live in now —which we call the civilized world— is the product of not going against the tide.

The choice, of course, is always ours just as the consequences of the poor choices will be .

...the G7 is not the same as the G8?

“The G7 (also known as the G-7 or Group of Seven) is the meeting of the finance ministers from a group of seven industrialized nations. It was formed in 1976, when Canada joined the Group of Six: France, Germany, Italy, Japan, United Kingdom, and United States of America. The finance ministers of these countries meet several times a year to discuss economic policies. Their work is supported by regular, functional meetings of officials, including the G7 Finance Deputies.

It is not to be confused with the G8, which is the annual meeting of the heads of government of the aforementioned nations, plus Russia. (1)

...Benedict XVI, during an audience to the new envoy from the Czech Republic, claimed that Religious Liberty is a win-win situation? (1)

That is indeed true when such liberty is used as St. John Bosco used it (2). Even the enemies of the Church [read: enemies of the Church Administration] helped Don Bosco financially. In him God gave a living example —which lasted over 40 years— to the brutes of Rome of what Jesus intended when He said:

Go ye into the whole world, and preach the gospel to every creature. [Mark 16:15] and

But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you: [Matthew 5:44]

Unfortunately, Religious Liberty for Benedict and those of his ilk is freedom to “exchange religious favors for money, then amass it until is beyond counting” with the logical consequences which St. Francis of Assisi (3) pointed out to Innocent III long before the “blame it for all” Vatican II Council, not to mention the French Revolution (4), the preventable (5) spread of Communism , the Spanish Civil War and the Mother of all persecutions, which is about to fully manifest itself in all its fury.

...male fertility in Spain is well below the average according to recent studies? The reason for the poor quality seed is not what was considered the usual seed-enemies: drugs, alcohol and cigarettes; as the “spinned” story made the TV news, the real seed-enemies is “industrial waste” in the waterways.

The professional spinners were trying to undo the initial blurted-out-by-the-excitement reason: The relatively large amounts of female hormones in the waterways resulting from the massive consumption of birth control pills. Those hormones are actively affecting the “maleness” of men.

and that...

...as we did our ca. annual “state of the morals” survey by reviewing the personal ads in one mainstream respected Spanish daily two weeks ago, we were shocked (although we should not be surprised) to find that in addition to the usual Guy seeks Girl, Girl seeks Guy, Girl seeks Girl, Guy seeks Guy there was a new (at least to us) section which was dedicated to Couples seek Guy or the reverse. What was even more unsettling was that in the Guy seek Guy, 80 % of the ads were placed by married men seeking to have a male lover “on the side”.

We have ample reason to believe that this is not taking place only in Spain. Even though our “survey” does not meet the highest standard of quality of professional surveys, we have assistance that they do not have...
