Message on April 23, 2000

On Easter Sunday, I was so anxious to see the Blessed Mother who had wept that I went to the Chapel and began praying at about 6:30 a.m. Because I had not been able to sleep for many days and had been repeatedly attacked by the devils, it was very difficult for me to remain sitting. I prayed, asking for the Blessed Mother’s forgiveness for my having caused her to shed more tears with my shortcomings and my occasional wishing to turn away from my crosses.

"Mommy! This is the day of Your Son’s Resurrection…" Tears flowed down continuously from my eyes. I confided to the Blessed Mother the pains that had accumulated deep inside my heart and also begged for her forgiveness for my having given her more sorrows.

About half an hour passed, and I heard what sounded like beautiful, majestic military music from above and looked up. The Blessed Mother’s statue was not visible; instead, there stood Jesus in a red mantle and looking extremely merciful, and, to His right, the beautiful and smiling Blessed Mother, who was wearing a blue mantle and holding a rosary in her right hand. Both Jesus and the Blessed Mother had shiny royal crowns on Their heads. Angels wearing shiny white garments were dancing joyfully around Jesus and the Blessed Mother. The Blessed Mother spoke lovingly and kindly, smiling beautifully:

THE BLESSED MOTHER:

My beloved daughter! My children who have been called! Do not worry too much, but entrust everything to me with confidence. Why did the Lord, Who is your Savior, love Mary Magdalene so much? She was about to be stoned to death because of her sin, but repented sincerely and followed the Lord like a simple child. That was how she won Heaven. With an utmost love, she poured fragrant oil on the Lord in preparation for His burial. Didn’t she do everything that she could?

And Peter, who was the disciple whom the Lord trusted and loved most, boasted that he would never desert the Lord, even if all others did. Before long, however, when the Lord was being treated like a criminal, he denied Him three times, even swearing that he did not know Him. How much pain must the Lord have felt in His Heart! However, as soon as the cock crowed, he wept bitterly, shedding tears of repentance. He repented his sins, renewed his resolution to accomplish the task that the Lord gave him, and, from then on, gave testimony to the Lord courageously, completely offering up his life, imitating me, the Mother. Therefore, he is now enjoying happiness in Heaven.

Dear daughter and all my children whom I have called with love! The shrewd devils, who know that I have chosen you and know what kind of work you need to do, are filling the sky and the earth (meaning that they are many) and are trying to make you despair and lose spirit. You must never despair or give up. Even the majority of the shepherds and the children who have been called, who say that they are making the Lord known, are becoming blind and deaf and are unable to discern because of the devils’ tricks. Because of this, Satan, my enemy, is about to cry out with joy over his near victory. His goal is to shake up the faith and trust of you, who are supposed to make the Lord’s Love and mine known, and, thereby, to make you fall into misery and give up. Thus, he aims to make you fall and to prevent you from doing the important work. Therefore, stand up hurriedly and go forward bravely, making strenuous efforts to accomplish the task that has been entrusted to you. When you only seek what belongs to Heaven, where there is no hunger, thirst, sigh, tears, pains, sorrows, or sufferings and where only the eternal happiness waits for you, remembering that, as I have been chosen as the Lord’s Helper, you have also been chosen as my helpers, and offering up graciously even all the preposterous rumors and accusations for the conversion of sinners, I will always be with you, who are weak and feeble, and you will enjoy eternal happiness at the places which I have prepared for you in Heaven.

When the Blessed Mother finished speaking, Jesus, Who had been smiling lovingly, gave a blessing and began speaking:

JESUS:

All the children in the world! Among those who are singing Alleluia with their mouths, how many are truly coming to Me? Those who come to My Mother, listen to her words, and practice them, and all the children who come to Me through My Mother will be saved by Me together with My Mother and will be led to a life of the resurrection, even when they are situated in an extremely dangerous crisis and are unable to do anything (to protect themselves because of the swiftness of the crisis). Therefore, with a high aim and plan to save the world, rescue the sheep which have even lost their sense of direction. Those who have ears to hear will hear and those who have mouths will spread. Do not prick the nose of a sleeping tiger (i.e. do not bring about a disaster by your own doing) or wear thick make-up to cover up ugliness (i.e. focus on external appearances while neglecting what is inside) and then tremble with fear when the whole earth is shaken and turns into seas of fire and becomes swept over by a frightful terror. By offering up reparations for the most dreadful sins of blasphemy, of perpetrating offenses against the dignity of God, and of ingratitude, perpetuate the Mysteries of the Paschal meal (the Last Supper) and the Resurrection.

Together with My Mother, I will always be a companion for you, who have been called and are working for Me, protect you, and sustain you as people who never give up despite difficulties. You will enjoy eternal happiness at My table on the last day. An-nyoung!

Jesus made a happy smile and lifted His right hand slightly as He was saying "An-nyoung!" Then, He entered His wooden image on the Crucifix in the Chapel. The Blessed Mother made an extremely loving and beautiful smile, nodding slightly, and went closer to the place where her statue which had wept normally is. Then, instantaneously, she turned into her statue. I have always been certain of the living presence of Our Lord and Our Lady, especially because, on the morning of July 1, 1995, the image of Jesus on the Crucifix turned into the live Jesus and shed Blood from His Seven Wounds, which, after turning into seven Sacred Hosts, came down to the altar before the Blessed Mother’s statue; and the Blessed Mother shed tears and tears of blood through her statue for a total of 700 days and also shed fragrant oil by squeezing all of herself for 700 consecutive days. However, today, for the first time, I saw the live Jesus entering His image on the Crucifix and the live Blessed Mother turning into her statue. I was totally fascinated by this and remained speechless, sitting on the floor. Praise and glory to the Lord! Alleluia!



Message on June 13, 2000

From about 7:30 a.m., I felt a strong longing to see the Blessed Mother in the Chapel. I tried to control it, but could not resist any longer.

When I went to the Chapel, there were a priest, who came as a pilgrim, and several helpers of the Blessed Mother praying together.

I gazed at Jesus on the Crucifix and thought that He looked so peaceful even on the Cross. While I was praying, a powerful light suddenly radiated from the Crucifix and made me fall to the floor. Soon I got up and heard the loving and yet dignified voice of Jesus, even though I could not see Him.

JESUS:

My beloved little soul! My children who have been called! I bestow the light of love and mercy upon you. Pray and again pray.

Even if your thoughts are imperfect, offer up your whole life to Me through My Mother as littler and littler persons. That is truly to turn life into prayers and offer yourselves up.

Even if it seems that darkness covers everything, follow My Mother entrusting everything to her with faith and confidence and having trust in her. Then, you will receive light from My burning Sacred Heart and gain Heaven. Also, the words of My Mother who said: "Through the prayers, sacrifices, and reparations by little souls, world peace will be accomplished," will surely be realized.

Who do you think mediated for the summit meeting between the South and the North in Korea? It was truly My Mother Mary. My Mother, who wishes that not even one among the children in the world be lost, mediated for this summit meeting between the South and the North and will guide it in order to completely cut the (barbed) wire that divides (the country) so that you, who grieve over the pains of a divided country, may be in harmony through reconciliation and agreement. Therefore, pray hurriedly. If you display the power of love and offer yourselves up completely through prayers, sacrifices and reparations, you will achieve victory over the devils of division who have been afflicting you and will see a new dawn. It is because that will truly be a shortcut to world peace.

As soon as Jesus finished speaking, I heard a loving, kind, and beautiful voice from the Blessed Mother’s statue which had wept.

THE BLESSED MOTHER:

My beloved children! Wake up hurriedly from sleep and pray with Me. Your prayers are urgently needed to make the one children of God, who have been scattered by the devil’s temptation, share love together. Satan, my enemy, thinks that my chosen daughter was in his way every time he was so close to victory in his works and about to cry out for joy and has attacked her violently and viciously to kill her, employing all the available methods and schemes. However, he has not succeeded because of my protection and your prayers. He is now even angrier, because reconciliation and harmony of one nation is about to take place through the summit meeting between the South and the North. He will try hard to lead the whole human race to ruin by means of schemes to promote dissension and hostility and by instigating the world to perpetrate offenses against God.

However, I will defend and protect you, who trust and follow me, from all dangers through my invisible presence in order to accomplish my plan. Nevertheless, because God has allowed free will to humans, there are people who are being controlled by and follow the devils, who try to eliminate love and promote dissension. That is why your prayers of deep love are needed.

My beloved children! My children who have been called because I love you extremely! With your help, I wish to build where Satan has destroyed, heal what Satan has injured, and achieve victory where Satan appears to have triumphed. Therefore, I want at least you, whom I have chosen, to abandon yourselves and offer up prayers of love of humble, little persons.

Because of the active efforts by the cunning devil, the world has lost its sense of moral values and is rushing toward senseless self-indulgence and great moral degradation. People are abandoning moral laws even to the extent that parents kill their children; children kill their parents; and a husband and a wife, who are to form unity, are falling into the devil’s temptations which lead them to the love that is exclusive of others (i.e. selfish love) through calculated selfishness and lack of understanding and, thus, cause families to break up.

Also, the cunning devil instigates sexual desires of male and female, old and young, seducing them to seek a moment’s pleasure, especially during the woman’s ovulation time. Pregnancies result and the little lives thus conceived are brutally murdered through abortion. Then, the devil makes a complacent smile of satisfaction and cries out for joy. Therefore, if the prayers of love, sacrifices, and reparations by you, who have been called as my true children, are combined, dissolved in my Immaculate Heart as total consecration, and offered up as a sacrificial offering of fervent reparation, they will also be freed from the influence of the enormously powerful devil.

Remembering that the time of purification can be advanced or delayed depending on your prayers of deep love, pray with the undefeatable weapon which I gave you (which is a special grace by which one may have a generous heart and may love all with the combined Love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. See Our Lord’s message on June 30, 1995) so that it (the time of purification) may come sooner than later. Then, the world will be reformed through a chain reaction more powerful than a nuclear reaction.

(Translator’s Note: On June 12, 2000, one day before the opening of the summit meeting between the South and the North in Korea and also the third anniversary of the miraculous descent of the Eucharist during Bishop Paul Kim’s visit, Julia and others placed many scapular rosaries at the foot of the Blessed Mother’s statue and were praying. Suddenly, two drops of fragrant oil fell from above. The oil drops descended with some force making audible sounds as they landed on the altar before the Blessed Mother’s statue. Then, the two drops of fragrant oil merged into one on the altar, as though it were a sign that the South and the North in Korea would reach unity and harmony through the love from the Blessed Mother. In her message on April 8, 1993, the Blessed Mother said that the fragrant oil and the fragrance were her presence, love and friendship.

On November 26, 1989, the Blessed Mother mentioned that the barbed wire dividing the South and the North would be cut, if her words were accepted and prayers, sacrifices and reparations by little souls were offered. Also on October 31, 1996, when Fr. Stefano Gobbi was in Seoul, Korea, he received a locution from the Blessed Mother in which she predicted that unity and peace would come to the Church in Korea and to the country of Korea as special gifts from her Immaculate Heart. It also seems noteworthy that the summit meeting, which was originally scheduled to begin on June 12, was delayed by one day to begin on the thirteenth of the month, which is a day for commemorating the Blessed Mother’s apparitions in Fatima, where she predicted that a certain period of peace would be allowed to the world following the triumph of her Immaculate Heart.)



Message on June 18, 2000

THE BLESSED MOTHER:

My beloved daughter! Tell my children who have been called. This Mother, who wishes that not even one among the children in the world become lost, is consoled by your offerings filled with love and devotion as you try to turn your whole life including even the most trivial things into prayers according to this Mother’s wish.

This Mother, who shines light upon the road to Heaven as the Heavenly Prophetess, today offered up my beloved children whom I have called, on the altar of the Sacred Heart of Jesus which is burning with love. Therefore, become awakened so that you may not fall into despair or discouragement, and try to live the life of resurrection.

My little souls who have been called! Even if you are feeble and weak, offer up yourselves completely and become dissolved in my Immaculate Heart so that you may be united with my love and become one. Thus, if you become one, as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are one, respond to this Mother’s wish to end violence and terror, saying "Amen," and follow me, then Satan, who has been trying to conquer this world, will be defeated and run away and you will hold the victory banner of my burning Immaculate Heart and sing the glory of the Lord.

However, keeping in mind that, if you do not accept my words, I will be unable to help you, turn your life into prayers with a sublime heart and utmost devotion.



Message on November 2, 2000

While listening to the priest’s sermon during the 7:30 p.m. Mass at the Naju Parish Church, I saw a vision. Seeing that numerous people were shooting arrows of fire and throwing chestnut burs and rocks at Jesus nailed on the Cross, throwing all kinds of curses and insulting words at Him, I cried feeling much pain in my heart, thinking, “How can they so miserably despise and insult Our Lord, Who is our Savior?” I stretched out my arms to stop them, shouting, “No! No! . . .” but they did not listen but continued throwing rocks and chestnut burs. I was hit also.

With my arms still stretched out and crying, I turned around toward the Lord and prayed earnestly, “Lord, forgive them. They do not know what they are doing. Let them repent. I offer up these pains that I am suffering now for the conversion of sinners.” At that moment, a small number in the crowd, noticing my praying, put down rocks from their hands, paused, and were looking at Jesus. Then, I heard some whispering sounds from behind the people.

It was the devil, who said, “Let’s kill that spiteful woman without fail today, who interferes with our work, by striking her with this huge block of iron so that she may never come back to life again.” Immediately, a huge object hit me from behind on my head and neck. I had been attending Mass holding the hand of a woman who was sitting next to me. As I was about to scream loudly, Jesus on the Cross radiated light. Instantaneously, the devils ran away and the numerous people who had been insulting and ridiculing (the Lord) so viciously became quiet also. Then, Jesus began speaking with a kind, loving voice.

JESUS:

My beloved little soul! Thank you.

Because of the increasing offenses against God by the children in the world, God’s wrath has reached an extreme level and has been overflowing little by little. It is eventually becoming like spilt water (meaning an irreversible situation). Because of that, Satan is crying out for joy thinking that his work has reached the stage of success. However, (God) is delaying the cup of wrath because there are little souls like you.

That is because your turning your life into prayers, which you have been imploring (others to practice) and which is to totally offer up and turn into prayers everything from the moment you wake up to the moment you fall asleep, not neglecting even little and trivial things, becomes dissolved in My Sacred Heart and My Mother’s Immaculate Heart and becomes one (with Them); it pulls out the nails one after another which the children of the world have driven into Me by offending (Me); and it becomes prayers of consolation that wipe away My Mother Mary’s tears and tears of blood.

For this reason, Satan mobilizes all the available means to ceaselessly and ferociously attack to kill you, who are an apostle of My Sacred Heart and My Mother Mary’s Immaculate Heart as well as an apostle of the Eucharist, as they consider you as their enemy.

Therefore, become awake and pray more, bearing in mind that there is no time to be complacent, to pause, or to hesitate. When the cup of wrath comes down, many people will go the way of perdition because of all kinds of disasters that befall them suddenly and unexpectedly. However, all the children who seek Me through My Mother with their hearts widely open, even if they are the most evil sinners, will receive the grace of repentance. When they practice the messages of love, which are the key to the shortcut to Heaven, they will receive the cup of blessing instead of the cup of wrath; will live in joy, love and peace; and, on the last day, will possess the tree of eternal life which Adam and Eve lost.

My little soul! It is a pain greater than the pains of the suffering and death on the Cross to be scourged and crucified by the children, clergy, and religious who have been called. How many are the clergy, religious, and children who stand close to Me, Who is Love Itself, follow Me, and make Me known?

Ah, Ah! (I am) lonely and sad.

My Mother has earnestly asked that a tabernacle be installed (in the Chapel), but it has not been done. That is why I came to Naju, Korea, through the Eucharist, which is My personal and divine presence itself, according to My Mother’s will to have the Archangel Michael (bring the Eucharist to the Chapel in Naju).

I showed the change in (the species of) the Eucharist several times and also came down personally through the Eucharist several times in order to give the totality of My Love to many children who come seeking My Mother and to share that Love with them. Nevertheless, the Eucharist, which is My substance, has been ignored and rejected with theories and reasoning. Instead of helping (people) experience My Love and Presence and making it known, the Eucharist has been judged to be a host and has become isolated. What else can this be other than a second death (for Me)?

Now I wish to restore My position.

(I ask Fr. Spies.) Help Me. See to it that that the Eucharist, which is My substance, may give love to and receive love from all the children who come seeking My Mother, at My Mother’s side in Naju. If this is carried out hurriedly, it will become a great consolation to My Mother and Me and many souls will become vitalized.

All the children in the world who have been called! It is not too late yet. Hurriedly come to Me, Who is Love Itself and the merciful Redeemer, without any fear and holding the hands of My Mother, who is the shortcut for coming to Me.

Even most of the children who say that they make Me known and love Me are spiritually blind and deaf. They have become spiritually disabled, lost their sense of direction, become confused, lost their balance, fallen into chaos, and are wandering and walking on the road to hell. I feel extremely sad and painful in My Heart, as if it is becoming torn apart into pieces.

My little souls who have been chosen through My Mother! At least you, remembering that only My Mother can turn God’s wrath away from you, respond with “Amen” to My Mother’s messages of love which she has earnestly given you, personally revealing her presence, love, and friendship with her tears, tears of blood, and fragrant oil; and, with total faith and trust, help all the herds of sheep, which have lost their way and are wandering, come aboard the Mary’s Ark of Salvation which My Mother has prepared and help them arrive at the heavenly harbor.

While making Me and My Mother known, you will also be persecuted in this world, but, in the next world, you will receive the power and privilege to pick and eat the fruits of the tree of eternal life, be given a share, receive a shiny royal crown, and sing Alleluia at the side of Me and My Mother, together with the Saints, surrounded and guarded by the Angels, and enwrapped in glory.

Later that evening, those who were present examined me, while I was in severe suffering and unable to move myself. They saw much swelling on the back of my head and neck and also clear marks of bleeding. They saw some holes and bruises caused by something sharp like a drill.

While I was writing down the message, the devil attacked me suddenly. But I was able to finish writing down the message thanks to the Blessed Mother’s help. While I was writing down the message this time, the Lord guided me in a very special way.

JULIA KIM'S SUFFERING AS A VICTIM SOUL

Jesus and the Blessed Mother said in Their messages that, because love has been annihilated, unity cannot be achieved, and, because of this, the sounds of humans screaming to each other in sins turn into the pain-causing sounds of wars and reach the skies, provoking God's wrath. They also said that sinners will repent and the clergy and the religious will achieve unity in love thanks to Julia's suffering the pains of the crown of thorns, the pains of crucifixion, the pains of fire flaming up in the Sacred Heart, the pains of Fr. Andrew Dae-Gun Kim's martyrdom, and the pains of reparation for abortions.

In one of her visions during the Holy Hour prayer meeting in 1981, Julia saw the part of Jesus' clothes covering His chest open and His Heart become visible and torn apart and bleed miserably. She cried out loudly without paying attention to people surrounding and watching her: "Oh, Lord! My Lord! What can I do about Your torn Heart?" Then, Jesus responded with a loud voice: "My Heart becomes torn apart mercilessly like this whenever people commit sins. I want at least you who know Me to sew up My torn Heart." Julia screamed loudly: "Oh, Lord! I will sew up the Lord's torn Heart. I will sew it up." Those who were around her also wept, struck with awe and reverence.

Since then, Julia has been participating in the sufferings of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Mother caused by the sins committed by the children in the world. She has been willingly asking for more pains in order to practice charity and has been living a consecrated life of self-denial, poverty, and sacrifice.

GOOD FRIDAY 2006 (APRIL 14)

Julia received the Stigmata again while doing the Stations of the Cross on the Blessed Mother's Mountain in Naju commemorating the Passion of Jesus in the afternoon of Good Friday together with many pilgrims including one monsignor and one priest from the Philippines and one priest from Indonesia. Foreign pilgrims came from Indonesia, Philippines, USA, Germany, Japan, Australia and Hong Kong. Julia received wounds on the forehead, both hands, side, and both feet, and also scourge marks on her arms, legs, and back, corresponding to the wounds and pains that Our Lord suffered. These miraculous signs were accompanied by extreme pains in reparation for the sins in the world and for the conversion of sinners. Julia received similar wounds and pains on Good Friday in 2004 and 2005.

While Julia was offering up the opening prayers before the altar of repose
together with the pilgrims, she suddenly screamed loudly and collapsed from
the pains of being scourged all over her body and being nailed to the cross.

When Julia reached the Twelfth Station, she saw a vision : "As soon as Jesus breathed His last, the black curtain was removed, the gate of Heaven opened, and God revealed the image of a white Sacred Host and poured down clear and bright light like the rays of the sun upon all the people present there, healing their souls and bodies."

After the Stations of the Cross, they went down to Calvary Hill. When Julia began praying before the Crucifix, she saw another vision : "The side of Jesus on the Cross opened and His Blood and water poured down to the last drop upon all who were present. At that moment, I heard Jesus' voice, which sounded anxious but kind."

Julia shouting in her heart : "I am a sinner who is so unworthy, unqualified, and lowly. I am an unqualified person who cannot do anything. I am truly unworthy."

After receiving the Blood and water gushed out of Jesus' side on Calvary Hill, Julia felt her extreme pains gone and was able to come down, smiling at the monsignor from the Philippines and holding the hands of him and other priest from Indonesia.

Message on April 14, 2006

At about 3 a.m. on Good Friday, I began praying before the altar of repose at the place on the Blessed Mother's Mountain where the Lord's Precious Blood had descended on August 15, 2002 and participating in several kinds of extreme pains that the Lord and the Blessed Mother were suffering.

In the afternoon, from about 2:30, I suffered severe pains of the Seven Wounds of Jesus. At about 2:40, blood exuded from my forehead, flowed down, and dripped down from the tip of my nose.

At about 3 p.m., I returned to the altar of repose supported by others meditating on the Lord's Passion, before beginning the Stations of the Cross. There already were a monsignor, a priest, and more than 30 other pilgrims from the Philippines, a priest and more than 80 other pilgrims from Indonesia, about fifteen pilgrims from the United States, several pilgrims from Germany, Australia, Japan, and Hong Kong, and many Korean pilgrims, gathered with the intention of observing the Triduum together with the Blessed Mother of Naju.

While I was offering up the opening prayers before the altar of repose together with the pilgrims, I suddenly screamed loudly in spite of myself and collapsed from the pains of being scourged all over my body and being nailed to the cross.

While doing the Stations of the Cross, I felt very cold and fell several times because of merciless scourging. When I reached the Twelfth Station, I saw a vision: as soon as Jesus breathed His last, the black curtain was removed, the gate of Heaven opened, and God revealed the image of a white Sacred Host and poured down clear and bright light like the rays of the sun upon all the people present there, healing their souls and bodies.

After the Stations of the Cross, we went down to Calvary Hill. When I began praying before the Crucifix, I saw another vision: The side of Jesus on the Cross opened and His Blood and water poured down to the last drop upon all who were present. At that moment, I heard Jesus' voice, which sounded anxious but kind.

JESUS:

Oh, My beloved little soul who has been called with extreme love! The pains of wearing the crown of thorns instead of the royal crown, being scourged, and being crucified because of the sins of the specially-called clergy, religious and children are greater than the pains of the suffering and dying on the Cross two thousand years ago, but My burning thirst is being well quenched by a little soul like you who participates in My extreme sufferings for the conversion and salvation of the children in the world who have lost their sense of direction and have become like beasts with human faces.

As so many of My children whom I have specially called and installed (as My workers) say that they love Me and My Mother but indulge themselves in their complicated and disorderly thoughts and go against God, I feel painful to the extent of not even being able to look at them. Now, even after two thousand years have passed since My Crucifixion, I am still nailed to the Cross day after day like this and am shedding Blood and water to the last drop for the conversion of sinners, am I not?

However, because there is a little soul like you who willingly and graciously participates in My sufferings for saving the whole world through the victory of My mercy and love, I and My Mother are comforted, and the cup of God the Father's just anger is being delayed.

How can I not love you after seeing your pains of reparation accompanied by your gracious sacrifices which you willingly offer up so that the numerous children of the world may repent and possess the tree of eternal life, saying that your pains are "happy pains that bring hope"?

(Julia: I shouted in my heart: "I am a sinner who is so unworthy, unqualified, and lowly. I am an unqualified person who cannot do anything. I am truly unworthy.")

My darling little baby whom I love! Through the pains you suffer while acknowledging that you are an unworthy, unqualified, and lowly sinner, even those souls who are rushing toward hell will return to the bosom of the Holy Catholic Church. As I and My Mother dwell in your childlike heart with which you acknowledge that you are a sinner who is always unworthy and lowly, do not worry or hesitate but resolutely and courageously spread (the messages) to the children in the world with the invincible weapon* that I gave you so that they may achieve victory over the cunning devil of division and ascend to Heaven.

Then, through the pains of double deaths that you suffer while participating in My pains, the numerous souls who had been walking on the road to hell, thrusting their fingers at others' faces with misguided theories and reasoning, will sincerely repent, and the number of the souls who turn around and say: "It has been my fault," will increase. What else could this be than the happy pains that bring hope as you scream? Isn't that true?

Dear clergy and all the children in the world who have responded to My call with 'Amen'! Today I wish to give the totality of My Love to all of you to heal your arid souls and bodies as well as your sick families so that they may become revitalized. I have already completely laid down Myself by shedding Blood even for the most wicked sinners who indulge themselves in doing evil and reject Me and My Mother. What would I not lay down for you who seek Me?

The light of My Love with which I laid down My entire Body for all the children in the world will shine not only on you but also on those people whom you specially pray for. Therefore, I desire that you, who have been called, now distance yourselves from the things of the world, always remember My Cross which is for your salvation, seek the highest good and love, take all the souls who have become contaminated with sins on board Mary's Ark of Salvation which My Mother has prepared, and make sure that they never get off.

I will soon go to each of you together with My Mother, bringing rewards and fire to separate good heads of grain from weeds and reward each according to his works. I desire that at least you, who are supposed to know Me and My Mother, do your best by perpetuating the Paschal Mysteries of the Last Supper and Resurrection in reparation for the most horrible sins of blasphemy and the sins of going against God the Father's solemn dignity, so that all may be saved.

All My dear children in the world! Even when a dangerous crisis befalls you and you are unable to do anything about it because of its suddenness while working to make known the highest and purest love of Me and My Mother, I and My Mother will guard and protect you, sustain you so that you may never give up despite difficulties, and always be with you as your companions even if any natural disasters visit you, and you will escape from the disaster of the flames of justice.

Therefore, through My Mother who is the shortcut in coming to Me, have total trust in Me, your Redeemer and Judge of justice, and become lowlier and littler souls. And take the lead and spread (the messages) valiantly to save the world of misery which is drifting toward its destruction.

Even today I intend to transfuse to you My Blood which I shed on the Cross like this in order to thoroughly wash away your dirty stains. I want all of you to love one another and take the lead in saving the world with the transcendence of My love with which I shed Blood from the Cross because I love even the most wicked sinners.

I desire that at least you, whom I have chosen, empty again and again your minds which have become filled with riches and thus become humble and little souls, and unite with My highest and purest love with which I want to save all the children with the immeasurable merits of the sufferings on the Cross and the love in My Sacred Heart. Thus, accept totally in your hearts My Mother's boundless love with which she loves you so dearly and become one with Her Heart. May the infinite blessing, love and peace be always with you who came here seeking Me and My Mother!

When Jesus finished speaking, he disappeared. I could only see His image on the Crucifix. Also, my pains had been so severe to the extent of needing a wheelchair, but the pains were gone after I received the message and I felt my body as light as a bird's feather**.

(Translator's note: *Julia explains that "the invincible weapon" the Lord mentions here refers to the combined love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, with which we can love everyone regardless of his condition. This expression had also been used in several earlier messages from the Lord and the Blessed Mother in Naju (for example, in the June 30, 1995 and June 13, 2000 messages).

**About three hours later, just before Julia began meditating and praying before the Crucifix, severe pains returned to her.

On Easter Sunday, April 16, 2006, the wounds from scourging on Julia's body were still visible, even though bleeding had stopped and the wounds were healing. Her clothes and socks stained with blood and water from the wounds have been preserved. She still had much pain in her swollen neck which was hit hard from behind during the Stations of the Cross.)
