Jesus
The Church is already going through the great trial of fire where she shall be purified, sifted, until the separation of the dregs of humanity comes about. Many will be separated and thrown out because they cannot live together, nor can the good prosper mixed with the bad.
Arrogance is sowing treason among My consecrated ones and, like Judas, they sell themselves for ideas they consider superior to My Gospel message. Their vanity and pride does not want to admit that the divine simplicity of My message is adequate for these times and they try to change My Gospel, making it like the present day world, thus changing the authentic values.
My Gospel is a Divine Message. There is no set time but rather, it was ordained for all times; in its simplicity and purity it is suitable for all souls, for all minds, and for all ages… The creature is not superior to the Creator, or the man wiser than He who gave him life and wisdom and it is the same Wisdom.
The enemies of the soul reign today in the world like a necessity that is admitted and accepted as natural. As this the world is before God; the devil makes himself god and the flesh shows itself in all its nudity, unleashing confused appetites.
The notion of sin is taken away from the soul
and it is made to see God as a far off and old-fashioned
being whom one must not fear nor obey.
Nevertheless, as
evil spreads with ease, there are also good souls that
suffer, pray, and love. They will be the ones that will save
the world and the Church. Those faithful souls, hidden,
ignored, and valuable, will be the ones that make the Church
resurrect as new and beautiful.
From this Country I expect great things, for that I placed it under the protection of My Archangels. They will protect it.
Understand, My children, your prayers and fasting have great value. By the prayers of this daughter of Mine and the intercession of My Mother, I have accepted to instruct you a bit more… You must start to live off faith, off each word that, in an incomprehensible manner for man, was directed at you. A bit more… there is little left to tell you… Do not undertake great deeds, live what you posses because, remember that, to whom more is given, more is expected…
Suffering has great value, though I Myself chose it for the salvation of man. For that I also send it to those souls that have been chosen by the Father for a determined end. But they must accept it voluntarily without weakness, as painful and bitter as it may be. I will be your comfort and your friend…

EDITOR’S NOTES: Through the rest of 2003, Scoop will be publishing a series of daily reflections on spiritual matters from Bolivian author Katya Rivas. Rivas, has received an official imprimatur from the Catholic Church for several books she says she was instructed to write by Jesus Christ, Mary and various Angels. Scoop’s extract, above, comes from Rivas’s book “The Great Crusade of Love”.

In 1999 Katya Rivas was the subject of a top-rating documentary show hosted by Mike Willessee (see Scoop TV review - Jesus Christ Tells FOXNews He Wants To Hug World and Scoop Images ). More recently Rivas says she was instructed by Jesus to have her books translated and published on the internet with the intention of having the books distributed to as wide an audience as possible. Several of the books can now be read online at http://www.greatcrusade.org/, and more are coming soon. In August 2002 Rivas visited Wellington New Zealand and met with Scoop Editor Alastair Thompson.
