You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery;'                but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.                If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                'It was also said, 'Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,'                but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.                'Again you have heard that it was said to them of old time, 'You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,'                but I tell you, don't swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God;                nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King.                Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can't make one hair white or black.                But let your 'Yes' be 'Yes' and your 'No' be 'No.' Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.                'You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'*                But I tell you, don't resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.                If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also.                Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two.                Give to him who asks you, and don't turn away him who desires to borrow from you.                'You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor,* and hate your enemy.*'                But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,                that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven.

Prepare the World for My Final Coming

Love One Another



Since Jesus desires perfect happiness for us in heaven, He calls us to conversion. We must renounce evil, and depart from the path of eternal damnation.

 

It is never too late to convert. The greater the soul’s misery — Jesus says — the greater its right to My mercy. On the cross, the fountain of My mercy was opened wide by the lance for all souls. I have excluded no one (Diary, 1182). The message of Divine Mercy imparted to Saint Faustina is a warning to us all, but especially to those who do not take the call to conversion seriously, and are reluctant to approach the Fount of Divine Mercy. To those whose hearts and minds are closed, and who will not confess their sins, Jesus says: Oh, how wretched are those who do not take advantage of the miracle of God’s mercy! You will call out in vain, but it will be too late (Diary, 1148). As St. Paul states: No one makes a fool of God. A person will reap exactly what he sows. If he sows in the field of his natural desires, from it he will gather the harvest of death; if he sows in the field of the Spirit, from the Spirit he will gather the harvest of eternal life (Ga. 6: 7-8).
The Lord entrusted St. Faustina with a critically important mission: You will prepare the world for My final coming (Diary, 429). Our Blessed Mother spoke to her about the same mission: I gave the Savior to the world; as for you, you must speak to the world about His great mercy and prepare the world for His Second Coming (Diary, 635). Jesus warns that the Day of Judgement will surely come. He calls us to take advantage of God’s mercy: The awful day, the day of My Justice, is near (Diary, 965). Before I come as a just Judge, I first open wide the door of My mercy. Who refuses to pass through the door of My mercy must pass through the door of My justice (Diary, 1146).
The message imparted to St. Faustina tells us that God is Love and Mercy itself (Diary, 300,1074). Our Lord wishes us to be rid of fear and to rely on His Divine Mercy. However, when the present time passes, Christ will come to judge us. Let all mankind recognize My unfathomable mercy. It is a sign for the end times; after it will come the day of justice. While there is still time, let them have recourse to the fount of My mercy (Diary, 848)
I do not wish to punish mankind — says Jesus. I desire to heal it, and press it to My Merciful Heart. I use punishment when they force Me to do so; My hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice. Before the Day of Justice I am sending the Day of Mercy (Diary, 1588).
       Jesus asked Faustina that the first Sunday after Easter be declared Mercy Sunday, the Feast of Divine Mercy. I desire that the Feast of Mercy be a refuge and shelter for all souls, and especially for poor sinners. On that day the very depths of My tender mercy are open. I pour out a whole ocean of graces upon those souls who approach the Fount of My Mercy. The soul that goes to Confession and receives Holy Communion shall obtain complete forgiveness of sins and punishment. On that day all the divine floodgates, through which graces flow, are opened. Let no soul fear to draw near to Me, even though its sins be as scarlet […] The Feast of Mercy emerged from My depths of tenderness. It is My desire that it be solemnly celebrated on the first Sunday after Easter. Mankind will not have peace until it turns to the Fount of My Mercy (Diary, 699).
To prepare us for the Feast, Jesus bids us say the Divine Mercy Novena, beginning Good Friday. The Lord told me to say this chaplet for nine days before the Feast of Mercy […]. Through this novena, I will grant every possible grace to souls.
(Diary, 7969)
