Chp World's Rejection of Grace

Jesus says:
"I will go on speaking to you about grace, which gives the life of the spirit.
"When God created the first man, in addition to the life of matter, until then inanimate, He infused into him the life of the spirit as well.
"He could not otherwise have said that He had made you in his image and likeness.
"None of you can image how perfect the first creature was. Only We in the eternal present which is our eternity, can see the perfection of the regal work of our creative Intelligence. The seed of Adam, if Adam had been able to remain a king as We had made him, with power over all things and depending on God alone the dependence of a most beloved son-would have been a seed of perpetual perfection. But there was a defeated one who was watching to take revenge.
"You, Maria, who say that from your heart thoughts of forgiveness could not emerge spontaneously because your human nature leads you to the spirit of vengeance and only out of regard for Me are you able to forgive-have you ever considered that it was the spirit of revenge that ruined you, the children of Adam, and sent Me, the Son of God, to the cross?
"Lucifer-and He was the most beautiful of my beautiful crea- tures-from the abyss into which he had fallen, eternally ugly after the blasphemous revolt against his Creator, was thirsty for revenge. To the first sin of conceit thus added an endless series of crimes, avenging himself for ages and ages. And the first act of vengeance was upon my creatures, Adam and Eve. On the perfection of my creation his poisoned tooth left the mark of its bestiality, communicating to you his very own lust for lasciviousness, vengeance, and haughtiness. And since then your spirit has been dueling in you against the poisons of the hellish bite.
"On some very rare occasions the spirit wins out over flesh and blood and gives earth and Heaven a new saint. Sometimes the spir- it lives with difficulty, with slumps of lethargy in which it is as if dead and you live and act as creatures devoid of light, of my Light. At other times it is literally killed by the creature, who voluntarily forfeits the throne of a child of God and becomes worse than a beast-turning into a demon, the child of a demon.
"In truth I tell you that over two thirds of the human race belong to this category, which lives under the sign of the Beast. For this category I died in vain.
"The law of those marked by the Beast is antithetical to my Law.
In the former, the flesh dominates and generates works of flesh. In the latter, the spirit dominates and generates works of spirit. When the spirit dominates, the kingdom of God is there. When the flesh dominates, the kingdom of Satan is there.
"The infinite Mercy animating the Triad has given your spirits the aid to remain the ruler. It has given the sacrament removing the sign of the Beast on your flesh as children of Adam and pressing my Sign. It has given my Word of Life; it has given Me, Master and Redeemer; it has given my Blood in the Eucharist and on the Cross; it has given the Paraclete: the Spirit of truth.
"Whoever is able to remain in the Spirit generates works of the spirit. From the creature possessed by the Spirit there flow charity, gentleness, purity, science, and every good work joined to great humility. From the others there emerge, like hissing snakes, vices, deceits, acts of lust, and crimes, for their heart is a nest of hellish snakes.
"But where are those who are able to tend towards the life of the spirit and make themselves worthy to welcome in themselves the vital inpouring of the Consoler, who comes with all his gifts, but wants a prompt spirit, desirous of Him, for this throne? No, the world does not want this Spirit, who makes you good. The world wants power at any price, wealth at any price, the satisfaction of sense at any price, all the joys of the earth at any price, and rejects and curses the Holy Spirit and impugns his Truth and overdresses in prophetic robes, speaking words not emerging from within the Most Holy Trinity, but from the cave of Satan.
"And this is not and shall not be forgiven. Ever. And you see that it is not forgiven. God withdraws into the height of his Heavens because man rejects his love and lives for and in the flesh. These are the causes of your ruin and of our silence. From the depths there emerge the tentacles of Satan; on earth man proclaims himself to be a god and curses the true God; on high Heaven closes. And this is indeed mercy, for in closing it holds back the thunderbolts you deserve.
"A new Pentecost would encounter hearts harder and fouler than a boulder that had sunk into a pool of mud. Remain, therefore, in the mud you have wanted, waiting for a command, which admits no rebellion, to pull you out of it and separate the children of the spirit from the children of the flesh."
In The Holy Name of Jesus, In the Blessed Lord God
Peace be with you always

Chp: Jesus' Explanation of Grace
June 6
Jesus says:
"Today I want to speak to you about grace. You will see that it is related to other topics, even if at first it doesn't seem that way to you. You are a little tired, poor Maria, but write all the same. These lessons will be of use to you in the days of fasting when I, your Master, do no speak to you.
"What is grace? You have studied and explained it many times. But I want to explain it to you in my own way in its nature and in its effects.
"Grace is to possess the light, power, and wisdom of God in yourselves--that is, to possess intellectual likeness to God, the unmistakable sign of your filiation to God.
"Without grace, you would simply be animal creatures that had reached such a point in evolution as to be endowed with reason, with a soul, but a soul on an earthly level, capable of acting in the circumstances of life on earth, but unable to rise up to the regions where the life of the spirit transpires. Little more than beasts, then, that act by instinct alone and, in reality, surpass you quite often in their way of acting.
"Grace is thus a sublime gift, the greatest gift that God, my Father, could give you. And He gives it to you freely, for his love as a Father, for you, is infinite, as He Himself is infinite. If we wanted to state all the attributes of grace, it would require writing a long list of adjectives and nouns, and we would still not explain perfectly what this gift is.
"Remember this alone: Grace is to possess the Father, to live in the Father; grace is to possess the Son, to enjoy the infinite merits of the Son; grace is to possess the Holy Spirit, to benefit from his seven gifts. Grace, in short, is to possess Us, the Triune God, and for your mortal person to be surrounded by the hosts of angels who worship Us in you.
"A soul that loses grace loses everything. The Father has created her to no avail; the Son has redeemed her to no avail; the Holy Spirit has infused his gifts into her to no avail; the Sacraments exist for to no avail. She is dead. A rotten branch which, under the corrosive action of sin, becomes detached and falls from the tree of life and in the end rots in the mud. If a soul were able to preserve herself as she is after Baptism and after Confirmation--that is, when she is literally soaked with grace--that soul would be only a little less than God. Let this tell you all.
"When you read the prodigies of my saints, you are astonished. But, my dear one, there is nothing to be astonished about. My saints were creatures who possessed grace; they were gods, therefore, for grace deifies you. Did I not state in my Gospel that my followers would work the same prodigies as I did? But to be mine, it is necessary to live by my Life--that is, by the life of grace.
"If you wanted to, you could all be capable of prodigies--that is, of holiness. Indeed, I would like you to be, for that would mean that my Sacrifice had been crowed by victory and that I had really torn you away from the empire of the Evil One, banishing him to his Hell, and riveting hell's mouth shut with an irremovable stone, and placing upon it the throne of my Mother, the Only One who kept her heel upon the dragon, who was so powerless to do Her harm.
"Not all the souls in grace possess grace in the same measure. Not because We infuse it to different degrees, but you because you manage to preserve it in yourselves in different ways. Mortal sin destroys grace; venial sin causes it to crumble; imperfections make it anemic. There are souls, not entirely bad, that languish in spiritual consumption because, by their inertia, which spurs them to commit continual acts of imperfection, they increasingly thin grace out, turning it into a most slender thread, a fading little flame. When it should be a fire, and intense, lovely, purifying blaze. The world is collapsing because grace is collapsing in almost all souls and languishing in the others.
"Grace yields different fruits to the extent that it is more or less alive in your hearts. The richer a terrain is in elements and the more it is helped by the sun, the water, and the air currents, the more fertile it is. There are sterile, meager plots of land which are sprinkled with water to no avail, warmed by the sun, traversed by the winds. The same holds for souls. They are souls that with all application take on vital elements and thus manage to benefit one hundred percent from the effects of grace.
"The vital elements are to live according to My Law--chaste, merciful, humble, loving God and one's neighbor; it is to live by 'living' prayer. Then grace grows, flourishes, sinks in deep roots, and rises up into the tree of eternal life. Then the Holy Spirit, like a sun, inundates you with his seven rays, his seven gifts; then I, the Son, penetrate you with the divine rain of my Blood; then the Father looks at you with pleasure, seeing his likeness in you; then Mary caresses you, clasping you to her breast, which bore Me, along with her little children who are lesser, but very, very dear to her Heart; then the nine angelical choirs crown your soul, the temple of God, and sing the sublime 'Gloria' then your death is Life and your Life is blessedness in my Kingdom."
Peace be with you always
