Apostolic Witness
Dear Friends,
A reading from the Second Letter of St. Peter (1:12:21):
Therefore, I will always remind you of these things, even though you already know them and are established in the truth you have. I think it right, as long as I am in this “tent,” to stir you up by a reminder, since I know that I will soon have to put it aside, as indeed our Lord Jesus Christ has shown me. I shall also make every effort to enable you always to remember these things after my departure.
We did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when that unique declaration came to him from the majestic glory, “This is my Son, my beloved, with whom I am well pleased.” We ourselves heard this voice come from heaven while we were with him on the holy mountain. Moreover, we possess the prophetic message that is altogether reliable. You will do well to be attentive to it, as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. Know this first of all, that there is no prophecy of scripture that is a matter of personal interpretation, for no prophecy ever came through human will; but rather human beings moved by the Holy Spirit spoke under the influence of God.

It has been announced that the conclave to elect the new pope will begin on Tuesday, March 12th. Let us pray for the cardinals that they will be enlightened by the Holy Spirit to vote for the Pope that the Lord wants.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord, the Son of God, given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,
“I call you all to believe the words of the Bible with all your heart My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who have been baptized and are members of My Holy Church. St. Peter was one of the three Apostles who saw My transfiguration on the mountain. They saw that I was divine and I was raised up from the ground. They also saw the two great saints of the Old Testament and at the end they heard the voice of God the Father as He said these words, ‘This is My Son, My beloved, with whom I am well pleased.’ You know that the Father and I are one. When I was on earth My great desire was to do the will of My Father and I can say that I followed Him every day of My life on earth until My death on the cross. Everything is written in the Bible about Me especially in the Gospels. Believe these words for they are the absolute truth. I love you all and I bless you.”
Father Melvin
