Ministers of a New Covenant
Dear Friends,
A reading from Saint Paul’s Second Letter to the Corinthians (2 Cor 2:14-17):
Thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ and manifests through us the odor of the knowledge of him in every place. For we are the aroma of Christ for God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to the latter an odor of death that leads to death, to the former an odor of life that leads to life. Who is qualified for this? For we are not like the many who trade on the word of God; but as out of sincerity, indeed as from God and in the presence of God, we speak in Christ.

Yesterday afternoon we had a shower but it did not last long. It was sunny the whole morning and most of the afternoon. It was warm too.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord, the Son of God, given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,
“Be sincere, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who acknowledge Me as the Savior of the world. I came to preach the truth to the people and I want you all to teach the truth that I have brought to you. In order to know the truth you need to read the Bible and to be instructed by a priest or by one who has made studies in theology. There are a number of doctrines that you must know and follow every day. I preached the doctrine, which My Church teaches all over the world. I taught that there are three persons in the One God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I am the Son of God who came down on earth to atone for your sins and to open heaven for you who believe in Me.
“I taught you about the Holy Eucharist and it is important that you believe the truth of this great sacrament. After the bread and wine have been consecrated, the bread and wine are changed into My body and blood. I am alive in the Eucharist as I live in heaven now. When you receive the Eucharist, you receive Me under the species of bread and if you take the chalice, you receive Me under the species of wine. I gave you seven sacraments and it is necessary that you know well all these sacraments and that you receive those you are allowed to receive. The great sacrament of reconciliation or penance shows my great mercy as I take away all your sins if you are sorry for them, and you receive special graces to help you avoid sin in the future. You are called to receive this sacrament of mercy about once a month. There are still many doctrines, which I did not mention, but there are books that explain them all. Come My friends and live in the truth. I bless you all.”
Father Melvin
