God the Father: 

My little son, I am thankful for saying yes to my request I asked of you decades ago. You have not failed. I am blessing everyone who hears your voice for it is I that am speaking through you. You are my Ezekiel in these times of darkness and sinfulness. Your spiritual journey with me has been in complete faith and trust in Me. 

I am very sad and hurt with the direction that is being taken by those I have placed in authority. The Demon has taken a stronghold of their minds and souls. All scripture and prophecies will be fulfilled. My Words of Holy Scripture and those of the Holy Blessed Mother. I gave my only Son Jesus to the world for their sin, and He paid the price for their Redemption. Before the creation of the world, I chose a little girl from Nazareth to be the mother of My most precious gift, Jesus. She was born without sin, and she gave Her heart to me with Her answer…” Let it be done to me according to Your Word.” It was at this moment when the Holy Spirit came upon her that she became the co-redeemer of my Son. She was not divine but holy and free from sin. Her blood became My Son’s blood and My Son’s blood became her blood. 

Jesus and the Eternal Father

I shown My angels in heaven what was going to take place with My creation and there where shouts of joy and jubilation in heaven. There was one who hated Mary, it was Lucifer. Jealousy and pride came upon him and was the cause of the rebellion in heaven. It was at the Garden of Eden that he approached the woman, thinking She was Mary. He was wrong and I placed a curse on him. I promised to defeat Satan through the operation of the woman and Her seed. It was the Blessed Virgin Mary and “the seed” who is My Son, your Lord Jesus Christ. Satan is afraid of the Blessed Virgin Mary. His final defeat will be through Her and My Son. 

I am happy that many of My faithful Chosen and followers of the Immaculate Conception have turned their eyes away from the deception and unholy demands made by those in power and authority. They have disgraced themselves and committed to Me the holy Mother of My Son. I have sent the Blessed Mother to different apparitions to warn My children and Her children of the evil that has taken a stronghold of those in power and authority. By turning away from the blessed Virgin Mary and removing Her titles I have given Her they are in disobedience to My authority as their Creator. 

The Blessed Virgin Mary is not only the Queen of heaven and earth but the Co-Redemptrix to my Son Jesus Christ. 

Do not be deceived or afraid to speak the Truth. The Truth is My Son Jesus Christ. The Holy Trinity honors the Blessed Virgin Mary. She is leading many of My fallen creatures into the arms of My Son Jesus. Continue to pray the Holy Rosary and Novenas to the Holy Mother of God. She is your intercessor and Protection from the claws of evil. The Words of My Son... “Do whatever she tells you.’….

I bless you with My Fatherly Love

 

Blessed Mother: 

Jesus CrucifiedMy son I am very happy that you have come to the Defense of my Immaculate Heart. I have been sent by God the Father and My Son to warn my children of the pending atrocities being sent to mankind for the salvation of their souls.  Satan is furious and hates my presence of love. There are much confusion and chaos with my beloved servants in the Church. My children feel abandoned and do not know which way to turn. I am always with them. I was sent to bring the love of my Son to all of God’s Creation. 

I invite everyone to join me in prayers for all the leaders that have been seduced by Satan. Satan is running scared and knows that his time is about to come to an end. Pray the Rosary and all prayers of love and protection. Offer your supplications to My Immaculate Heart as your prayers enter as incense into the Holy of Holies before the Heavenly Throne of your Father.  I interceded before the Throne of God for all My children. All your prayers are being honored and answered. 

As Mediatrix of All Graces, all my Messages that I gave to the world these passed centuries are being fulfilled and coming to pass.  I am always at your side. In the end My Immaculate Heart will triumph. I bless you with My Motherly Love. Pray, pray, pray.

 

Reflection

Please Pray and Discern the following. This is my own opinion through Prayer and Discernment. I am not a Theologian or a Bible Scholar but a simple man who cares and loves our Blessed Mother. I follow my conscience and faith in the tradition and teachings of the Catholic Church in union with St. John Paul II and other holy Saints in our Glorious Catholic Church.  I believe that Our blessed Mother is the plan of Almighty God. After extensive study and discernment, I am writing my opinion that can easily be found online and in sacred scripture. 

Ezekiel, as a servant of God was to deliver God's messages with straightforward language that everyone could understand whether they listened or not. He was tasked with being a watchman, warning of the punishment for not following God and holding him accountable for the blood of those who died in their sins. Ezekiel's mission was to warn the exiled people of Israel, explain why judgment had come, and give them hope of future restoration and renewal. 

 

The Announcement of Jesus to Mary to become the Mother of God

Our Lady of Revelation

The Angel Gabriel's message to Mary is a pivotal moment in Christian theology, marking the birth of Jesus Christ. In Luke 1:26-38, the angel Gabriel informs Mary that she will conceive a son named Jesus, the Son of God. Mary's response, "Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word," encapsulates her acceptance of this divine plan. This event is celebrated as the Annunciation and is a cornerstone of Christian faith, symbolizing the incarnation of God's Son. 

 

Prophecy of Simeon 'A sword shall pierce your heart'

The prophecy of Simeon, as recorded in Luke 2:34-35, foretells the deep emotional suffering that Mary would experience as she witnessed the crucifixion of her son. The sword that pierces her heart symbolizes the intense grief and sorrow she would endure, as she stood at the foot of the cross, bearing witness to the crucifixion of Jesus. This imagery is a profound reminder of the profound emotional suffering that Mary would face as she experienced the crucifixion of her beloved son. 

 

The Wedding at Cana

On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus also was invited to the wedding with his disciples. When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” And Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour has not yet come.” His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.” John 2:1-5

 

Mary at the foot of the Cross when Jesus was being Crucified

Mary, the mother of Jesus, was present at the crucifixion of her Son, Jesus. She was accompanied by Mary Magdalene and the disciple whom Jesus loved, John the Apostle. Jesus, in his final moments, entrusted the care of his mother to John, demonstrating his concern for familial responsibilities even in his death. This act symbolizes the formation of a new spiritual family, united by faith in Christ. Mary's presence at the cross is rich with theological implications, as she embodies the ideal of faithful discipleship and the ultimate act of surrender and trust in God's plan. Following the crucifixion and resurrection, Mary continued to play a vital role in the early Christian community, as noted in Acts 1:14, All these with one accord devoted themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and with His brethren.  

Genesis 3:15, I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed, he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel. In this passage, God promises to defeat Satan through the operation of “the woman” and “her seed.” Tradition identifies the “the woman” as the Blessed Virgin Mary and “the seed” as our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Revelation 12:17, Then the dragon was angry with the woman, and went off to make war on the rest of Her offspring, on those who kept the commandments of God and bear testimony to Jesus.  This says that we are her children if we obey the commandments and bear testimony to her son, Jesus.  This is a great bookend to the Garden of Eden, where an immaculately created virgin, Eve, says yes to the demon Lucifer, and allowed sin to enter the world.  Mary, also an immaculately created virgin, says yes to the angel Gabriel, and allowed salvation to enter the world.  Eve came out of Adam; Jesus came out of Mary.

 

The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary

The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, also known as the Dormition of the Mother of God or the "Falling Asleep of the Mother of God," is a significant Marian dogma in the Catholic Church. It teaches that Mary, the Immaculate Mother of God, was taken up body and soul into heaven at the end of her earthly life. This belief is rooted in the teachings of the Church and is supported by numerous scriptural passages. The Assumption is celebrated annually on August 15 and is considered a Holy Day of Obligation in many countries. The feast day includes various customs such as processions, special prayers, and traditional festivities dedicated to Our Lady. The Assumption serves as a powerful sign of the destiny God intends for each of us: life in His presence, not only in spirit, but also in glorified body.

 

The Coronation of Our Lady as Queen of Heaven and Earth

The idea of the coronation of Mary in Heaven after her Assumption took its rise in an accommodation of the words in the Song of Songs (4:8),

“Come, my bride, from Lebanon… thou shalt be crowned..,” and was chiefly developed and popularized by iconography.

The earliest existing example is probably the mosaic in Santa Maria in Trastevere at Rome, where Our Lady is depicted already crowned, sitting at the right hand of her Son; this dates from about 1140. A century later there appeared what became the usual design, Christ putting a crown upon His Mother’s head.

The theme of the coronation of Mary was popular in English medieval carving, and it was everywhere highly embroidered and developed at the Renaissance. Among more recent artists the subject has aroused little interest, and Catholics today are familiar with it chiefly from the last glorious mystery of the rosary.

Its meaning suggests the final “moment” of the Assumption and the reference in the Apocalypse to “a crown of twelve stars.” It seems to be a second feast of Assumption, emphasizing the bodily aspect of the mystery.

 

Not Co-Redeemer Coming out of Rome

The CoronationMary, mother of Jesus and all believers, is not co-redeemer, Vatican says Mary is the Mother of Jesus, the daughter of God the Father, and the Bride of the Holy Spirit.  Who better to lead you to heaven than her? She already knows the way!

Mary accepted her role as the Mother of Jesus with humility and faith. When the angel Gabriel announced that She would conceive Jesus, Mary expressed Her acceptance by saying, "Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word" (Luke 1:38). This moment signifies Her readiness to fulfill God's plan, despite Her initial doubts about being a virgin. Mary's acceptance is a powerful example of faith and obedience, as She recognized the significance of Her mission and trusted in God's guidance. Her story highlights the essential role of women in God's plan and the importance of faith in divine promises. 

 

Virgin Mary has visited mankind several times and informed mankind what is coming to the world

The Blessed Virgin Mary has appeared in various locations to warn the world of impending chastisement through several Marian apparitions. These apparitions are often seen as private revelations from Mary, which the Catholic Church recognizes as authentic if approved by a bishop. Notable apparitions include those at Guadalupe in Mexico, Lourdes in France, and Fatima in Portugal, where she has conveyed messages of warning about the state of the world and the need for conversion. The Church's guidelines for discerning the authenticity of these apparitions emphasize the importance of public devotion and the protection of the faithful from influences contrary to Faith.

Her messages are almost all the same, God the Father and Jesus Her Son have sent Her to mankind to deliver the following:

 

La Sallet, France

"On the 18th of September (1846), the eve of the Holy Apparition of the Holy Virgin, I, Melanie Calvit, was alone, as usual, watching over my Master’s cows. Around eleven o’clock in the morning, I saw a small boy walking towards me. I was frightened at this, for it seemed to me that everyone ought to know that I avoided all kinds of company. This boy came up to me and said, little girl, I’m Coming with you, I’m from the Corps. Too.  But I didn’t want anybody around, I wanted to be alone.  He said, “Let me stay with you, my  Master told me to watch over my cows with yours; keep me with you, I’ll be very good”.  His name was Maxim Giraud.  

The next day on the 19th of September I met Maxim on the way up and I discovered that he was a very good simple boy. Then something inconceivably fantastic passed through me and I felt myself being drawn, filled with love and great respect as my heart beat faster.  I saw a brilliant light shining more brightly than the sun, and in this light I saw a most beautiful Lady sitting on top of our paradise with her head in her hands.  This beautiful lady stood up and crossed Her arms while watching us and said to us:  

…Excerpt of the message

"There will be extraordinary wonders in every place because the true faith has been extinguished and false light illumines the world. Woe to the princes of the church who will be occupied only with piling up riches upon riches, with guarding their authority and lording with pride!

"My Son's Vicar will have much to suffer, because for a time the Church will be handed over to great persecutions: it will be the time of darkness; the Church will undergo a frightful crisis.

"With God's holy faith forgotten, each individual will want to direct himself and rise above his peers. Civil and ecclesiastical authority will be abolished , all order and justice will be trampled underfoot. Only murders, hatred, jealousy, lying and discord will be seen, with no love of country or family.

"The Holy Father will suffer greatly. I shall be with him till the end to receive his sacrifice.

"The wicked will make a number of attempts on his life without being able to harm him; but neither he nor his successor will see the triumph of God's Church.

"Civil governments will all have the same objective, which will be to abolish and make every religious principle disappear, to make way for materialism, atheism, spiritism and vices of all kinds.

"The seasons will be changed, the earth will produce only bad fruits, the heavenly bodies will lose the regularity of their movements, the moon will reflect only a feeble reddish light; water and fire will lend convulsive motions to the earth's sphere, causing mountains, cities, etc., to be swallowed up.

"Rome will lose the Faith and become the seat of the Antichrist.

"The demons of the air, together with the Antichrist, will work great wonders on the earth and in the air, and men will become ever more perverted. God will take care of His faithful servants and mend of good will; the Gospel will be preached everywhere; all peoples and all nations will have knowledge of the Truth.

"I address a pressing appeal to the earth: I call upon the true disciples of the God living and reigning in the heavens; I call upon the true imitators of Christ made man, the one true Savior of men; I call upon my children, my true devotees, those who have given themselves o me so that I may lead them to my Divine Son, those whom I bear as it were in my arms, those who have lived in my spirit; finally, I call upon the Apostles of the Latter Times, the faithful disciples of Jesus Christ who have lived in contempt of the world and of themselves, in poverty and humility, in contempt and silence, in prayer and mortification, in chastity and in union with God, in suffering, and unknown to the world. It is time for them to emerge and come enlighten the earth. Go, show yourselves to be my dear children; I am with you and in you, provided your faith is the light enlightening you in these evil times. May your zeal make your famished for the glory and honor of Jesus Christ. Do battle, children of light, you, the few who see thereby; fir the time of time, the end of ends, is at hand. 

Excerpts from the message of Our Lady of La Sallette, September 19,1846

Akita, Japan to Sister Agnes Katsuko Sasagawa

The messages of the Blessed Virgin Mary in Akita, Japan, are a series of apparitions that began on June 12, 1973, and continued until October 13, 1973. Sister Agnes Katsuko Sasagawa, a nun at the Servants of the Eucharist convent in Akita, reported receiving messages from the Virgin Mary during these apparitions. The messages included calls for prayer, penance, and warnings about the state of the world and the need for conversion. The apparitions also involved the statue of the Virgin Mary weeping tears and blood, which occurred 101 times. These events attracted the attention of the local bishop and the Catholic Church, leading to the official recognition of the apparitions as genuine by Bishop John Shojiro Ito in 1984. The messages of Akita are considered a specific warning of worldwide chastisement, similar to the messages of Fatima. The messages encourage the faithful to pray the Rosary and make sacrifices in reparation for sin.

Message from October 13, 1973:  As I told you, if men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity.  It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will have never seen before.  Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful.  The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead.  The only arms that will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son.  Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary.  With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests.  What is the purpose of the message about chastisements?  God does not need to punish us.  God leaves mankind free.  Good choices result in good consequences while evil choices cause evil consequences to good and bad alike: War, famine, persecution of the good.  The purpose of the message of Chastisement is this: the future is not irrevocably set, and we can change world events and save souls if we answer the call of Our Lady.  The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against bishops.  The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres…churches and altars sacked: the Church will be full of those who seek compromises and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord.  The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God.  The thought of the loss of so many is the cause of my sadness.  If sins increase in number and gravity, there will no longer be pardon for them.  Pray the prayers of the Rosary very much.  I alone am still able to save you from the calamities that approach.  Those who place their confidence in me will be saved.

The Rosary

The First Message - October 18th, 1961

We must make many sacrifices, do much penance, and visit the Blessed Sacrament frequently. But first, we must lead good lives. If we do not, chastisement will befall us. The cup is already filling up, and if we do not change, a very great chastisement will come upon us.

The Second Message - June 18th, 1965

As my message of October 18th has not been fulfilled and has not been made known to the world, I tell you that this is my last message. Before, the cup was filling up. Now, it is overflowing. Many cardinals, many bishops, and many priests are on the road to perdition and are taking many souls with them. Less and less importance is being given to the Eucharist. You should turn the wrath of God away from yourselves by your efforts. If you ask for His forgiveness with sincere hearts, He will forgive you.I, your Mother, through the intercession of Saint Michael the Archangel, ask you to amend your lives. You are now receiving the last warnings. I love you very much and do not want your condemnation. Pray to us with sincerity, and we will grant your requests. You should make more sacrifices. Meditate on the passion of Jesus.

Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández published a long document on the titles of love and respect Catholics have for Mary

https://www.usccb.org/news/2025/mary-mother-jesus-and-all-believers-not-co-redeemer-vatican-says 

With the approval of Pope Leo XIV, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith published a long document on the titles of love and respect Catholics have for Mary and Her motherly assistance to believers, but it also explained the problems with referring to Mary as "co-redemptrix" or "co-mediatrix" with Christ.

Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, prefect of the doctrinal dicastery, presented the document during a conference at the Jesuit headquarters in Rome and said its teaching becomes part of the church's "ordinary magisterium" and must be considered authoritative.

For more than 30 years, some Catholics, including some bishops, have asked for formal dogmatic declarations of Mary as co-redemptrix and co-mediatrix, the document's introduction said. But Msgr. Armando Matteo, secretary of the dicastery's doctrinal section, told the conference that the Vatican's first study of the doctrinal implications of the titles goes all the way back to 1926. 

The titles co-redemptrix and co-mediatrix have been used in reference to Mary by theologians and even popes in the past millennium, the doctrinal dicastery said, but without elaborating on the precise meaning and the extent to which those titles could describe Mary's role in salvation history.

Pope John Paul II had this mosaic of Mary; Mother of the Church placed on a wall high above St. Peter's Square after he was shot in the square in 1981 on the feast of Our Lady of Fatima. (CNS photo/Paul Haring)

St. John Paul II "referred to Mary as 'Co-redemptrix' on at least seven occasions," the note said, but after consultation with the then-Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and its prefect, then-Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, in 1996, he did not issue a dogmatic declaration and stopped using the title.

Citing Scripture and tradition, the future Pope Benedict XVI said, "The precise meaning of these titles (co-redemptrix and co-mediatrix) is not clear, and the doctrine contained in them is not mature."

"Everything comes from Him -- Christ -- as the Letter to the Ephesians and the Letter to the Colossians, in particular, tell us; Mary, too, is everything that she is through Him. The word 'Co-redemptrix' would obscure this origin," Pope Benedict said.

Pope Francis, at a general audience in 2020, said that Jesus entrusted Mary to humanity as a mother, "not as a goddess, not as co-redemptrix," adding that love motivated some people to call her co-redemptrix, but love often leads people to "exaggerate."
