God Said, So You Have To Believe

Feast of Jacinta and Francisco
I have been involved in investigations of
apparitions so long that I am somewhat sick of them. It is not rocket science to see if one is
true or not, even when bishops do not do their jobs. There are signs to look for in true
apparitions and also in false ones. I
have given these guidelines in Testing the Spirit and they are just common
sense and easy logic. http://www.unitypublishing.com/Apparitions/TestingTheSpirit.html
After all these years the volume of new
unapproved seers is just so overwhelming that I just do not know what to do
next to make people be more cautious. I
know of many cases where people were greatly harmed by these fake seers and so
it really matters to me to do what I can.
The least of the harm I know is people loosing all faith in God, but
often people commit suicide or loose all they have in life. I have had people say that it does not matter
because the messages do not contain anything contradicting faith and morals,
and in fact, some bishops say the same, like in the case of “Anne-the Lay
Apostle”. Of course there cannot be
additional apostles but lets leave that alone.
The fact that someone does not say
anything wrong now does not mean they will not eventually, like in the case of
Francis Klug in Los Angeles who said nothing wrong for 10 years but now has a
cult of followers who have given up all to follow her and she proclaims that
Joseph is the Holy Spirit. Many lawsuits
follow her because of former members and she travels with bodyguards.
What bothers me is how otherwise good and
sensible Catholics lose all common sense when anyone says that God is talking
with them. It does not matter how – inner voices, dreams, automatic writings, visions, whatever. It
does not matter if they prove this with signs and wonders or not, people just
flock to see and touch anyone who makes such claims. What this Newsletter hopes to show is the
extreme stupidity of this by using a few examples.
Josyp Terelya
Michael C. Brown told of numerous
encounters that Terelya had with the Blessed Virgin Mary while in prison in
Terelya went on to say that he has seen
no visions nor has he received any messages. "All I am doing is
making political evaluations of current world situations based on my seeing an
accurate and plausible future outcome based on my knowledge and experience with
the Politburo." According to
Terelya "They are all crazy. All of these Charismatics are crazy
perverts and all they want is sex, sex and more sex. After I speak to them and they ask me to pray
over them they hit the floor and they have a spiritual orgasm.
Americans are crazy and stupid. But they
pay me a lot of money to do this.”

Why no credibility? At the age of 20 she
married her first of four husbands, Antonie Ames,
then Christopher Charles Hermey, Ernest Nathaniel
Alcorn, within three years, she was on to her third marriage, and then Jeff Lopez
became her forth marriage. Theresa had
a baby girl, Natalie, and a boy, Arthur and then abandoned both.
Heavy into alcohol and drugs Teresa

Marvin
Kucera
Marvin Kucera is another self proclaimed
seer after reading THE FINAL HOUR, and his claim to fame was Refugee Centers
protecting people from the coming chastisement.
The believers of Marvin Kucera are a great example of gullible people.
But more than that, he is a perfect example that those who pass themselves off
as experts in apparitions should not be trusted. An example would be Ted and
Maureen Flynn of "SIGNS OF OUR TIMES" magazine, who were Marvin’s
biggest promoters. But the web Marvin wove goes all over the country, into all
the
What is sad about the followers of Marvin
Kucera is that he was nothing but a con artist from the beginning. He had two
felonies before he met with his "conversion". One felony was for
immoral and lud solicitation, and the other for
embezzlement. He is an admitted homosexual.
With Ted Flynn’s help, Marvin published
four volumes of his messages called, "MY HEART AWAITS YOU", and
received over 10,000,000 dollars for his refuges. In the end the FBI was after
him so he escaped to
MATTHEW KELLY
Matthew Kelly claims that 'God the Father'
speaks to him and he speaks to 'God the Father'. His going rate for his speaking
appearances is $1500.00 per day including the days that he flies. Two
eyewitnesses observed Kelly's fiancée with her hand down Kelly's trousers
fondling his private parts. During that
same visit witnesses saw Kelly's fiancée massaging Kelly's crotch with her
stocking feet in the chapel at the Domus Pax Hotel in

the Little Pebble, is finished in spite of the fact that he is in jail for
molesting children. His Shrine of Our
Lady of the
Like Garabandal
his so-called messages make him the fighter of the Antichrist, and the next
true pope - the little Peter or Peter, the Second. Like Garabandal, he says that John Paul II
will be the last pope on earth, and the next will be a false pope working with
the Antichrist. On November of 2003
William Kamm - "Little Pebble" was
committed to stand trial for the alleged sexual assault of two teenaged
followers. He was charged with nine
counts of sex crimes including one count of sexual assault and three of
indecent assault.
It was told in
court that the Virgin Mary chose 12 "queens" from among the cult
followers to marry Kamm and bear him children. The two young women were aged 14 and 15.

Brother
Gino
I am going to do another Newsletter on
Brother (Father?) Gino soon because in spite of the Holy Father condemning him
to forced retirement for Homosexual activity he still controls his priest, nun
and lay people followers with psychological, drug and claims of “God
said”. His first superior of the Fatima
house died of a drug overdose and they continue to violate all the orders from

Brazilian
Mystic
We heard of an ex nun, now married with
children and in her early 70s, who got involved with some visionaries from
Stigmatist Amparo Cuevas,
A few years back a married woman with seven children claimed to have apparition, the invisible stigmata, bi-location, elevation, etc. She formed a community of followers who were to live the messages and share everything in common, like the early Church disciples. To this day this cult is found in three countries and I met one nun who escaped from them but was afraid to say anything against them for fear that she was offending God.
As I write this a Lawyer, Juan Good Carlos, is representing 30 people
who were caught up and harmed by the cult. In the trial Carlos said, "We
have testimonies of hundreds of people from
Juan Carlos does on to explain that this cult "catches people of
all age and has them give their property to the group based on messages from
the Virgin, not recognized by the Church, which gives teeth to all types of
manipulations".
"Swindles (they take control of the money of entire families
because the Virgin said so)".
"Extortions (so that a father must enter his daughter like a
follower")!
“Between 60 and 80 women live in conditions of psychological and physical
mistreatment, manipulation of minors from 7 years and they appear like
zombies.”
This case is ongoing but the lawyer argues that families are ruptured
with great psychological damage even for those who are able to escape the
dominion of the group who the denouncers describe as sect. God said, and
people’s lives are damaged forever.
Judiel Nieva, the
In the early 1990s a young boy named Judiel Nieva in La Union claimed that he was getting regular visits from the Blessed Virgin Mary. These visits coincided with the “dancing sun” phenomenon in which the sun appeared to swirl and change color in the sky. The media descended on his town, closely followed by Marian devotees, apocalyptic cults and assorted kibitzers. He was filmed in an apparent state of ecstasy, kneeling before an unseen entity and sticking out his tongue to receive the holy host. Witnesses claimed that the wafer materialized on the boy’s tongue just before he swallowed it. Then he listened in rapt silence as the unseen figure spoke. Sometimes he took dictation. Meanwhile the faithful swore that the sun did indeed dance in the sky, which tends to happen when you stare at the sun too long. Every weekend for months the road to La Union was jammed with cars.
Eventually the divine visits were declared a hoax. Apparently the messages dictated by the Mother of God contained grammatical errors inconsistent with omniscience. Also, people were warned about seared retinas.
Judiel was forgotten, displaced from the tabloids by a woman who gave birth to a fish, who was herself displaced by a hermaphrodite who claimed to be pregnant.
Judiel, who was a young boy, is now
a woman, and a transvestite, a medical sex change. She/he now goes by the name
of “Angel. Imagine divine apparitions
happening to a person like this, where are people’s brains?
Louse Starr TomKiel
In a message of December 23, 1999 Jesus then said:
"As the ball drops in Manhattan, N.Y. at Time Square on New Years Eve: all
lights will go out, riots will begin and terrorists will begin their evil and
ugly shooting, bombing and looting. Many deaths and much destruction will
result. People should not go to NYC and people living there should not be
out on the streets and if possible should leave for a few days. Fear and
panic will abound and there will be many fires. Go to your churches and
pray. Spend New Years Eve with Me, your God."
On New Year of 1999 nothing happened. In
spite of this, messages continue to be printed on the internet but the messages
of 1999 are blank (page not available) http://www.giftstor.org/tomkiel03thrd.htm Where are people’s brains?
Divine Will
Luisa Piccarreta died 70 years ago
and would have been forgotten if not for the new Bishop who never met her. He has revised her cause for sainthood but in
order to do that he had to remove all the Volumes of her writings from the
entire Tribunal investigation and even fired Rev. Michael Adams, Rev. John
Brown, and
http://www.unitypublishing.com/Apparitions/A%20Divine%20Will%20Conversation.htm
I add this here just to give more proof of the lack of logic in the followers of mystics. Without comment just let me insert some of her writings so that even an uneducated two year old could see how false this is.
Jesus: "IN THE NEW ERA, THE
SACRAMENTS, THEMSELVES, WILL NOT GIVE THEIR FULL FRUITS BUT WE WILL NOT
REALLY NEED THEM, FOR THE REAL LIFE OF THE HOLY TRINITY IN THE DIVINE WILL
IN THE NEW ERA IS GREATER THAN THE MYSTICAL LIFE OF GRACE THE SACRAMENTS
HAVE."
Volume 9 March 10, 1909
The Father forms one single thing with Jesus. Jesus
gives Himself continuously to souls.Now, at that
moment a thought came to me of asking whether my state was Will of God - for
that was more necessary than what I was saying to Him. So I told Him, and
He, instead of answering me, drew near
my mouth and placed His tongue in my mouth, and I was no longer able to
speak. I could just suckle something -but I can't tell what it was; and
as He withdrew it, I could only say: 'Lord, come back soon - who knows
when You are coming back.' And He answered:
"This evening I will come back again." And He
disappeared. http://www.bookofheaven.org/volume_09.htm
Volume 12 August 1, 1918
Effects of the privation of Jesus. I go on amidst privations and anxieties, and I often lament to my sweet Jesus. And He came; and drawing close to me, He clasped me to His Heart and told me: "Drink from my Side." I drank the Most Holy Blood which came out from the wound of His Heart. How happy I was! But Jesus, not content with letting me drink the first time, told me to drink a second time, and then a third. I remained amazed at His goodness -that, without my asking, He Himself wanted me to drink. http://www.bookofheaven.org/volume_12.htm
Volume 12 February 6, 1919
How the soul in the Divine Will can form the hosts in order
to nourish Jesus.....While I was doing this, my sweet Jesus came, All in a hurry, and told me: "My daughter, I am
very hungry." And it seemed He
would take many tiny little white balls from inside my mouth, and would eat
them. Then, as if He wanted to satisfy His hunger completely, He entered inside
my heart, and with both hands He took many crumbs, big and small, and ate them
hurriedly. Then, as if having satisfied His hunger, He leaned on my bed and
told me: "My daughter, as the soul keeps enclosing my Will and loves
Me, in my Will she encloses Me; and, in loving Me, she forms around Me the
accidents in order to imprison Me inside, and forms a host for Me. So, if
she suffers, if she repairs, etc., and encloses my Will, she forms many
hosts for Me in order to communicate Me [4], and to
satisfy my hunger in a divine way and worthy of Me. As soon as I see these
hosts formed in the soul, I go and take them in order to feed Myself, to satisfy my insatiable hunger that I have for the
creature to render Me love for love. So, you can say to Me: 'You have communicated me - I too have
communicated You.' And I: 'Jesus, my hosts are your own things, while
yours are your things; so, I remain always below You.'
And Jesus: "For one who really loves, I am unable
to consider this, nor do I want to. And besides, in my hosts it is Jesus
that I give you, and in yours it is the whole of Jesus that you give Me. Do you want to
see it?" And I: 'Yes.'

Effects of confidence in Jesus - Then, my sweet Jesus, making
Himself seen in my interior, told me: "My daughter, confidence in Me
is the little cloud of light, in which the soul remains so enveloped as to make
all fears, all doubts, all weaknesses, disappear from her, because confidence
in Me not only forms for her this cloud of light that enwraps her completely,
but feeds her with opposite foods, which have the virtue of dispelling all fears, doubts and weaknesses. In fact,
confidence in Me dispels fear, and nourishes the soul
with pure love; it dissolves doubts, and gives her certainty; it takes away
weakness, and gives her fortitude. Even more, it makes her so daring with
Me, that she
attaches herself to my breasts, and she suckles and suckles, and feeds herself;
nor does she want any other food. And if she sees that, in suckling,
nothing comes to her - and I allow this in order to excite her to the highest
confidence – she neither gets tired, nor does she detach herself from my
breast; on the contrary, she suckles more strongly, she knocks her head against
my breast, and I laugh to Myself, and I let her do it.

May 28, 1920
The acts done in the Divine Will enter the sphere of
Eternity, and run ahead of the human acts. I was offering myself in the Holy
Sacrifice of the Mass together with Jesus, so that I too might undergo His same
consecration. And He, moving in my interior, told me: "My daughter, enter into my Will, so that
you may find yourself in all the hosts, not only present, but also future; and
in this way you will undergo, together with Me, as many consecrations as I
undergo. In each host I place one Life of Mine, and I want another
one in return. But how many do not give it to Me!

Legionaries of Christ
I need not add anything to what I have already written about the Legion and its founder except what has recently come to light within the last few days which will show the control and manipulation of cults like this one. I have many articles on them in http://www.unitypublishing.com/Apparitions/LegionIndex.html but one should go to the web site of ex members to see the harm and the manipulations done to people.
http://www.exlegionaries.com/forums/index.php
Now finally for the first time the founder of the Legionaries
of Christ will appear in civil court to respond to charges of sexual abuse.
Fr. Marcial Maciel, founder of the Legionaries of
Christ, and Fr. Álvaro Corcuera
Martínez del Río, its current director, will appear before a
The judge summoned Maciel and Corcuera to appear in
court so that they might publicly
explain how acts of pedophilia, of which the founder of the Legionaries of
Christ has been accused, have ³permeated² the educational institutions the
religious group operates.
It will be the first time that Marcial Maciel will
have appeared before a civil tribunal, since previous accusations against him
were handled by ecclesiastical tribunals. Last year, as a result of the sexual
abuse scandals in which he was involved, Pope Benedict XVI ordered Maciel to
renounce ³all public ministry.²
The two have been advised that, in the event they fail
to appear to testify in court, they will
be sent to jail. The judge¹s order was issued in response to a civil
lawsuit brought against the Colegio Oxford by Lisset Slimna Aldrete
and José Bonilla Sada, parents of a four year old boy named Patricio, who according
to the complaint was the object of sexual abuse by a teacher at the school run
by the Legionairies of Christ.
Please, people, be more prudent before believing anything that seems holy.
