The Hour of the Holy Spirit...

Feast of Pentecost, May 30, 1982

"This is its hour. It is the hour of the Holy Spirit who, from the Father and by means of the Son, is given to you ever more and more as a gift, as a sign of the merciful love of God who wants to save mankind.
By the fire of the Spirit of Love, the work of the great purification will be quickly accomplished. The Church groans as it awaits his merciful work of purification.
Through interior sufferings and by means of trials which will bring it to relive the bloody hours of the Passion through which my Son Jesus lived, the Church will be led to its divine splendor.
It will be healed of the wounds of error, which have spread like a hidden cancer and which threaten the deposit of faith. It will be cured of the leprosy of sin, which obscures its sanctity. It will be purified of all those human elements, which separate it from the spirit of the Gospel.
It will be deprived of its earthly goods and purified of many of its means of power, that once again it may become pure, humble, simple and chaste. In its pastors and its flock, it will again be crucified, that it may give perfect witness to the Gospel of Jesus.
Through the power of fire and of blood, the whole world will also be renewed. Humanity will return once again to the glorification of the Father, through Jesus, who will at last have established His reign in your midst.
This is, then, the hour of the Holy Spirit. He will come to you in all His fullness, by means of the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, His most beloved spouse."
