Chp: Penance, Sacrifice and Charity to Prevent Spiritual Corruption
June 16
Jesus says:
"To preserve bodies from the corruption of death, since very early times special fragrances have been used with halt putrefaction and conserve corpses. But, O men who fall to pieces spiritually, wasted away by the corruptions of a whole society polluted to the core, O poor men for whom I died to no avail--why don't you use on yourselves the fragrances which can halt your corruption?
"I have taught them to you. I have taught them to you by my life, by my word, by my death. In my Gospel is the norm in order to live healthy in the flesh and in the soul, in thought and in action. And I lived out that Gospel in my thirty-three years of life.
"You cannot say to Me, as you can say of your false prophets: 'You preached one thing, but did something else.' No. Jesus was the Master not only in word, but in deed.
"I have taught you to prefer purity and continence to lust, sobriety to guzzling, faithfulness to deceit, work to idleness, honesty to fraud, respect for authority to rebelliousness, love for the family to dissipation, mercy to harshness, humility to pride, justice to abuse of power, sincerity to lying, respect for innocence to scandal, faith to unbelief, and sacrifice to enjoyment. But, I, God, have done these things before you.
"You have placed everything under your feet and have danced, like fools, upon the divine maxims in which your good lay in this life and the other.
"You have increased knowledge in all fields except in the only one necessary. In the knowledge of my Gospel. You have seated yourselves with all foods except the only one necessary: my Word. You thought you were rising up to the level of the superman. You have only become superanimals. The superman is created by my Law because it deifies you and makes you eternal. All the rest does not raise you up. It only makes you lose your heads.
"Martha said to Me, 'Master, he has been in the grave for four days and now smells.' But for how many centuries have you been there? You sink lower and lower into the grave and the rot of death. Not even my Voice shakes you. Not even my tears.
"But how can you rest content, degraded as you are? You had Heaven; you were God's heirs. Now what are you? A mass of lepers and of those possessed by demons torment you, kill you, make you delirious, and drag you into the fire even before you are dead. You have the fire of hell in your minds and in your hearts. And I had introduced into you the most gentle fire of charity!
"The fragrances to save you from complete putrefaction are Penance, Sacrifice, and Charity. But would you like to use them? No. You do not look at the crucified Master who by his sacrifice has given you new souls capable of eternal life, who has cleansed you with his Blood and his tears form the leprosy of sin. You do not look at Him. He speaks to you of goodness, love, sacrifice. You want to be bad; you want to hate; you want to enjoy.
"As the great Victim and the little victims are trying to transfuse a new life into you you raise your threatening fist and hurl your deriding curse.
"Be careful, headstrong men! The patience of God is immense, but it is not your place to tempt Him further, for I said, 'You shall not tempt the Lord your God."
Peace be with you always
