Jesus said: “My people, St. Peter in the first reading was explaining to the people that the lame beggar was healed by My power in My Name. He also used that occasion not to take any credit for himself, and emphasized My Resurrection as proof that I really am the Son of God who I claimed to be, and whom the chief priests rejected. The Gospel readings are all in the New Testament as seen in the vision. I appeared to My apostles without coming through the door in My glorified Body. I showed them My wounds and that I was true body and blood, and not a ghost. I ate the broiled fish in front of them to further prove My humanity, and that I truly resurrected. Man has trouble understanding the supernatural, so I did everything to prove to My disciples with hands on physical flesh so they could fully believe in Me without any doubt. These accounts are also further proof to My faithful of My historical Presence and full Resurrection. Even though the Jewish leaders of the time refused to believe in My Resurrection, you have the accounts in the New Testament to see the truth of My Resurrection and believe in Me and My Church, which I founded. St. Peter was declared the rock on whom I would build My Church, and you have this authority handed down through all of the popes. I declared that the gates of hell would not prevail over My Church, and it exists today by My protection. My Church will continue even during the tribulation through My faithful remnant.”
Prayer Group:
Jesus said: “My people, on earth you are smelling the heavenly aroma of beautiful spring flowers. In heaven there is rejoicing and singing as you commemorate My Resurrection on Easter Sunday. As you view these beautiful flowers, you are drawn closer to My beauty in nature of My creation. Spring is a new beginning of life as everything in the grass and the trees start to come back to life. Keep your soul pure and close to Me, and keep a holy life as your focus on Me.”
Jesus said: “My people, even when you celebrate the life of a deceased person, there is a hope that one day that person will be with Me in heaven. I have told you before that you are not ready to live until you are ready to die. Which means that you should go to frequent Confession so your soul will be pure at your judgment when I call you home. You need to pass from this life so one day you may have eternal rest in Me.”
Jesus said: “My people, continue your Novena prayers for Divine Mercy along with going to Confession to fulfill your requirements from St. Faustina. Then the reparation due for your sins can be forgiven from My heart. Look upon this picture of the Divine Mercy as you recite your Divine Mercy Chaplet and prayers for the Novena. My mercy is flowing over everyone as I await every soul’s journey to find Me.”
Jesus said: “My people, this story of My explanation of the Scriptures concerning Me is a desire to be there for all of My faithful. Even when these disciples recognized Me in the breaking of the bread, they said how their hearts were burning with joy to hear My complete Messianic Mission explained to them. Every Easter your hearts should also be burning with joy to hear all of the details of how I appeared to My disciples and gave them proof of My Resurrection.”
Jesus said: “My people, rejoice in having the chance to view this holy image of Mine on this shroud. This is another of My signs to show you the reality of My Resurrection. All four Gospels give you a collective view of the many accounts of My Resurrection that shows many personal encounters that I had with My disciples. I had to ascend to My Father in heaven, but I remain present with you in My Blessed Sacrament. I am the victor over sin and death, so keep singing Alleluia to give thanks for My victory.”
Jesus said: “My people, this extended time of Easter, up to Pentecost Sunday, is a time for everyone to try and fully grasp My gift of spiritual life that was given in My death and Resurrection. Rejoice in singing the Gloria and My Easter songs of joy. I sent My disciples out to teach all nations about My Good News, and they were given gifts of the Holy Spirit in various healings. Today all of you are called by your Baptism and your Confirmation to go out and convert as many souls to the faith as you can. My gift of faith and love was meant to be shared with others and not just kept to yourself. Love one another as I have loved you.”
Jesus said: “My people, coming together as a family is a deep sharing of love at the roots of your family tree. You are happy to see each other, but sad to separate. This is more so for family members who live many miles apart. Your family of the faithful, especially in your own parish, or among your prayer group members, is another coming together in joy when you are singing and praying with each other. When you are of one mind in the Spirit, there is a comfort in being with each other’s company. Take this love from your meetings and share it with those that you meet in life. By sharing My love with others, you become My hands and My feet.”

Jesus said: “My people, in these readings after Easter I am taking you to school in learning your faith and what is important. I bring salvation to all peoples who believe in Me, and you have been taught the Good News of My death and resurrection. You are reading all about how My Early Church began and what truths are most important. You are seeing how the spirit of the law is more important than the letter of the law. Love of Me and neighbor are also more important than man’s traditions. Not only can you learn from these readings, but you need to pass on the core of your faith to your children or those that you teach in religious education. When My faithful grow weak in your faith, then the following generations will be weak as well. Keep strong in your faith and your prayer life, and you will survive life’s trials. You also will be a good example for others to follow. The more you struggle to be a good student in the faith, the better you will be in teaching the faith yourself. By trusting in Me for everything, then you will have no worries, and be confident in being with Me in heaven for all eternity.”

Jesus said: “My people, this encounter with two of My disciples on the road to Emmaus was a beautiful opportunity to explain all of the Old Testament references to how I would suffer and perform miracles. Every time that I performed a miracle of healing or raised someone from the dead, the people were amazed, but they did not want to believe that I was the Son of God. They did not know where My power came from, but they knew I was born among them. They also did not connect that I was fulfilling the role of the Messiah because I did not fit their vision of a ruler who would save them from the Romans. I indeed reminded My disciples of the prophets’ prophecies, but they could not believe or understand what rising from the dead meant. Several times I mentioned that I was sent by God and I was performing the works that the prophets foretold. But the Jews would not accept Me as a God-man and they killed Me because they thought that I was blaspheming in My claiming to be the Son of God. After I arose from the dead and witnessed My flesh body to My disciples, they truly believed that I was the Messiah. It was after Pentecost and when they received the Holy Spirit that My disciples had the courage to go forth and proclaim My Gospel and heal the infirm. Believe in the Good News of My Resurrection, and be thankful that I paid the ransom for everyone’s sins.”

Jesus said: “My people, after My Resurrection there were several accounts given of My appearances in My resurrected Body. The women notified My apostles that the tomb, where I was buried, is now empty. The apostles went to the tomb and found it so. (Jn 20:6,7) ‘Simon Peter therefore came following him (John), and he went into the tomb, and saw the linen cloths lying there, and the handkerchief which had been about His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded in a place by itself.’ This burial cloth, that you have come to know as the Holy Shroud of Turin, is the cloth in your vision. Many have come to believe in Me by this miracle of My Image on this shroud. I first appeared to Mary Magdalene, and she did not recognize Me in My resurrected Body until I called her name, Mary. She reported My appearance to the apostles, but some did not want to believe her. I call each person by name to come and believe in Me. This is everyone’s choice because I do not force My love on anyone. But for those, who come to believe in Me, now you will have the gift of eternal life.”

Jesus said: “My people, you know how the souls were released from the dead when I resurrected. The saints came to heaven, but there are still others in purgatory that have not yet been allowed to come to heaven. Every time a soul passes from this life, there is a particular judgment for that soul to hell, purgatory, or heaven. Because of My death on the cross, some souls are allowed directly into heaven if they have been purified in this life by suffering or a holy life. Those, who need purification, are sent to various levels of purgatory. By your good deeds, prayers, and leading a holy life, you can lay up treasure in heaven that will lessen your stay in purgatory. I want everyone to come to heaven and avoid hell, but this is dependent on the personal choices that you make on earth in this life. I give you an opportunity to have your sins forgiven any time that you can come to Confession. There is no excuse for not being prepared to die because this could happen to you at any time. By frequent Confession you can keep your soul pure and ready for your particular judgment. As you rejoice in this Easter Season, remember that saving your soul and the souls of others should be your primary concerns in this life.”
Jesus said: “My people, the meaning of the word ‘Bethlehem’ is house of bread. My churches are little Bethlehems because each church in My tabernacle is housing My consecrated Body and Blood in the holy bread of My Host. You have My Real Presence in My consecrated Bread in every tabernacle. So as you make a visit to My Blessed Sacrament, you are adoring and praising your God in your Adoration time. I thank you for visiting Me and keeping Me comforted by your presence every night that you come to Me. My adorers are special to Me because they realize that their God is ever present to them in My tabernacle. Trust in Me that I will be guarding you at all times from the evil temptations of the world.”

Jesus said: “My people, My death on the cross opened the gates to heaven because I paid the ransom for all the sins of mankind, both in the past and the future. The souls, who were pure enough to enter heaven, were released from the place of the dead. Easter was a glorious time for all souls. (Matt. 27:52,53) ‘And the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints that had slept arose, and coming out of the tombs after His Resurrection, came into the holy city, and appeared to many.’ This event gave hope to those still living and further hope to those living today that you also could be resurrected one day. Give praise and thanks to Me for all of My gifts to My faithful. Repent and follow My laws, and you will have your reward in heaven.”

Jesus said: “My people, this vision of My Resurrection did occur on the third day at 3:00 a.m. in the morning. This is why some have the urging at this time to pray and give glory to Me. The accounts of the women meeting the angels at the tomb were revealing to them. (Luke 24:5,6) ‘Why do you seek the living One among the dead? He is not here, but has risen.’ This proof of My Resurrection did not satisfy My apostles. It was My physical appearances that convinced them that I was not a ghost and that I had true flesh and blood showing them My wounds. It took some time and My sending of the Holy Spirit until My disciples truly believed and started teaching My Resurrection to others. These accounts are further proof to My faithful that I truly resurrected and that everyone of My faithful will also one day be resurrected body and soul after the last judgment. Rejoice that I conquered sin and death by My Resurrection. Be glad in singing your Alleluia verses.”

Jesus said: “My people, you have suffered your little penances all throughout Lent and you give them over to Me on the cross. Every day you carry your cross in this life, and do not think that all of your sufferings go unnoticed. I see all that you suffer in the little and large things in your life. So do not be depressed over them, but accept them joyfully for Me because there is redemptive merits in them when you give them over to Me. As you read the account of My Crucifixion, see how much I was willing to suffer for each person’s sins. As you look closely at the Shroud of Turin, you can see the blood marks from My five wounds and all of the rips in My skin from My scourging. Even on My head you can see the wounds of My crown of thorns, and the bruises on My shoulder and My knees. It is painful to see how much I suffered, but I went to this extent of torture and death to ransom the sins of all mankind. Not every one accepts Me, and I suffer more rejection from people who do not love Me and do not thank Me for the openness to their salvation. Every sinner can repent of their sins and I will forgive them. Pray for the conversion of poor sinners so they can be saved from hell. Everyone has a choice for heaven or hell, but unless you repent and accept Me as Master of your life, then you cannot come to heaven.”

Jesus said: “My people, My Divine Mercy is for every soul that repents and changes their life to one in imitation of Me. As you look upon this image from St. Faustina and pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet, your soul will receive My protection to make you strong in the face of your daily temptations. Making the Easter Novena and going to Confession within a week of Mercy Sunday will take away all temporal punishment due for your sins. This great promise to St. Faustina is a blessing of mercy for all souls who follow these instructions. My Divine Mercy draws you closer to Me, and you can identify with My suffering every time that you pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet at the 3:00 p.m. hour. Even if you are unable to pray this chaplet during this hour, make a point to pray these prayers every day. By drawing on My Divine Mercy to forgive your sins, you will see why it is so important not to offend Me in your sins. Remember what I told the adulteress: ‘Go and sin no more.’”

Jesus said: “My people, I am the life blood of your spiritual life. Without Me and My Eucharist, you would not have eternal life. It is My death on the cross and My institution of Holy Communion and Confession as sacraments that gives you the grace to enter the open gates of heaven. Because My death on the cross has enabled you to have your sins forgiven, My crucifix should be your greatest remembrance of this gift of life. This is why you should have a large crucifix on every altar of every church. I have paid the ransom price for all of your souls, so looking on My crucifix should help keep you focused on the One who loves you most. When you walk in obedience to My laws and give everything over to Me, you are making a complete commitment to Me in your consecration to Me. It is this total surrender of your heart and soul to Me, and your detachment from worldly things that will lead you on the path to heaven. Just as I gave My life up for you out of love, so you can give your life over to Me out of love for Me. By having Me with you at all times, you will have My peace in your soul that no one else can promise you.”
Jesus said: “My people, there are some people who read a lot of books and they are called book-smart. But unless they apply that knowledge to practical uses, then that person is still smart, but their hands are empty of any deeds. It is the same way with knowing chapter and verse of the Bible or other books as the Catechism. This remains all good knowledge, but you need to put this knowledge into actions and deeds. You may know the Ten Commandments, but you must obey them to show your love for Me. You may know all about My life and how to live from the Gospels, but unless you live your faith or imitate Me in your actions, then this knowledge is not used. Keeping the faith by your actions, and performing good deeds out of love for Me, will gain more treasure for you in heaven. Establishing a true love relationship with your Lord takes a personal commitment that will involve giving your will over to Me so I can fully direct your life on the right path to heaven. Faith and good works therefore are much better than all of your book knowledge of the world or of holy books.”
