Father Tomislav: Dearest Brothers and Sisters; as I told you the last time, these times are full of graces, and the first part of this year of evangelisation and consecration to the Holy Spirit is almost completed. The three solemnities of the Ascension of the Lord, Pentecost and the Most Holy Trinity are very connected to each other. For us who are on our path and for you who want to do the path it is very important that we immerse ourselves in the graces of these festivities and welcome all that is good for our growth and our mission.

The readings of the day of the Ascension of the Lord begin with the Acts of the Apostles[1]; we notice immediately that the apostles are not ready. St. Luke speaks of the instructions about the Kingdom of God that Jesus gave them for forty days, and only after a short time they asked: “‘Lord, are you at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?’” The Lord answers indirectly: “‘It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority.’”

We remember that we have read another important point in the Gospel of John this morning [2]: “‘Though I have been speaking figuratively, a time is coming when I will no longer use this kind of language but will tell you plainly about my Father. In that day you will ask in my name. I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf. No, the Father himself loves you because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God.’”

God recognises our love for Jesus. Thus, we have entered a new dimension of life and our spiritual life must rise. We can say that we are asked to begin a direct relationship with God to relate to Him with increasingly direct knowledge, behaving like members of the family of God, as St. Paul said, with the maturity that these times require:

“Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord” (Eph 2,19-20).

The three solemnities of the Ascension of the Lord, Pentecost and the Most Blessed Trinity must be understood as a path. The first step of this path was that the apostles had to participate in the suffering of Christ and in His death, stripping themselves of all carnal, human, political, etc., projections and all false images, as we know from the Gospel; even today, in the Gospel of Matthew we have read about the event in which the apostles encountered Jesus. Luke says in the Acts that the Risen Christ instructed them for forty days so that they would participate in the resurrection. Matthew says, “some doubted” when the Lord Jesus appeared: “Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshipped him; but some doubted” (Mt 28,16-20).

There we see the fragility of the apostles. We can also take a look at the experience that St. Peter, and the Blessed Mother, told us about the visit of the faithful brothers and sisters to them.[3]  The result was that the people were not ready to welcome the evangelisation of the Universe with the help of the faithful brothers and sisters, and the apostles could not elevate themselves because the Christian community was not filled with spirit; it was not mature; it was not compact. However, we have reached this point.

We have reached this point and St. Matthew says: “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”

It seems that this was not very clear to the apostles. It means that they welcomed Christ, participated in His Passion and resurrected with Him, but the Holy Spirit was not in them. When the Holy Spirit descended upon them they were filled with power, and the Trinitarian action came upon them, and they baptised the people in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, as St. Matthew said.

I would like to share with you a passage of the second part of the chapter, “The Face of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary”, which will be published in a few days.[4]

Mary spoke to us, referring to the solemn consecration to Her and the consecration to the Most Holy Trinity.

 “You said that, through Me, you wanted to be the Church that belongs to the Most Holy Trinity. My Heart is in the Most Holy Trinity; it cannot be divided from the Most Holy Trinity. Therefore, if you have offered yourselves to the One and Triune God through My Heart, you enter My Heart and are automatically placed in the Most Holy Trinity.”

Are you aware of this? And what does it mean?

Mary said: “You have done even more than that because you have recognised Me as Coredemptrix.” Thus, I would like to tell you this: in this time of the resurrection of Christ it is not possible to unite with Jesus, who ascended to Heaven, to receive the Trinitarian power in the Holy Spirit and to be in the Holy Trinity, unless we first die to ourselves, rise again and defeat the first death. When we are too weak to die to ourselves, the Holy Spirit cannot act powerfully in us. I think you can understand that. Because of our human fragility we are given the help of the Blessed Virgin, the Mother of God.

I would also like to share with you these words of Mary: “I continue to act as Coredemptrix, just as My Son is still working as the Redeemer.” Mary, who is in the Holy Trinity, acts in the midst of the Church. She also says: “It is impossible for Me not to be all-powerful by grace. My work does not end with My Assumption into Heaven, but it continues among the people and prepares the glorious coming of My Son. So far, there was no Church that fully recognised Me with My prerogatives and supported Me by participating in My action as Coredemptrix.”

We have proclaimed the Church, and we are the Church that has welcomed the Coredemptrix who is the highest expression of the prerogative from which Mary’s divine motherhood arises. Therefore, it is very important to understand the following point of the mission:

 “You, too, could not fully participate in My action because you were not yet able to understand. Now you understand My work as Coredemptrix. My work does not simply consist in giving you some messages to spread the devotion in Me, as has occurred many times in My numerous apparitions on Earth. My action is far wider and needs to be seen in the light of My Assumption into the Most Holy Trinity.”

Notice that the Church usually says: “Mary was taken to Heaven with body and soul”. The Blessed Mother, however, says that She was “assumed into the Trinity”.

Thus, it is very important to reach the awareness that She is in the Most Holy Trinity and that She carries out the Trinitarian action in this time on Earth because She is the Most Blessed Mother, the instrument of the Trinitarian action among us. Therefore, you will find many hints in these lines that will reveal Mary’s Face.

 “It is necessary to understand how I now act in the Church of Jesus Christ of the Universe. I want to remind you that you are in the final phase of the plan of the recapitulation of the entire Universe in Christ, and the events will follow each other quickly. You have proclaimed the existence of the Church of Jesus Christ of the Universe on Earth and you have proclaimed that I am the Coredemptrix. In this time all good and all evil have to come to light. All the good that exists in the Church of Jesus Christ of the Universe must be manifested and revealed.

My presence among the people is a great gift of God to all humanity. However, this gift has not been fully manifested or welcomed. God respects the freedom of His children even when they refuse His gifts. Therefore, I expect you to move forward, consecrated to Me, and to promote My work as Coredemptrix. Be ready to face strong opposition. They will tell you that it is not Me who speaks to you as I am humble and silent; yet, I do not want to expose Myself, let alone pride myself on My prerogative as Coredemptrix, My omnipotence in God. I only want you to be aware that I am your Mother, Queen and Coredemptrix, and that I want to help you. Thus, let Me help you. Allow Me to use the graces that God has given to Me for your benefit. Prepare yourselves for the criticism you will receive because many Christians wish I remained silent. Remember well, however, that I will not submit to any creature but only to God.”

Here She addresses all of us: “You have the task to announce what you have been revealed in the way it has been revealed to you. You are no longer subject to human authorities, as I am not. My Son has liberated you from the oppression of all authorities that place themselves above God and live according to the spirit of the world. Continue with your work and do not be afraid. I bless you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.”

I would like to repeat this for us: we are in the time that follows our resurrection, our first victory, and we are on our way towards the glorious manifestation of the Lord. We are on our way towards the new creation, towards the understanding of the mysteries to immerse ourselves in the mysteries. In these messages you will hear: “Many forms of religiosity are idolatry”. You know how people prepare for Easter by fasting. On the day of the Resurrection or on Easter Monday everything finishes. We cannot bear witness to God without intensively living the time in which the Holy Spirit communicates to us the power of the Father and the Son, that is, the Trinitarian power. We notice how Peter, John and the other apostles, too, after Pentecost sets off as fast as an arrow as he was filled with power. The other eleven apostles built a shield around him. Now, all that has been revealed to us will give us the strength of the Trinitarian power; therefore, we must immerse ourselves into this dimension. We are no longer only following Jesus Christ of Palestine, but the Risen, Victorious Christ. To go out in the name of the Most Holy Trinity means to manifest the power that acted in Jesus Christ. This awareness may lead us to Pentecost, to celebrate the Most Holy Trinity, and on that day we will renew our consecration.

We accompany you in these days with our blessing. In a few days, we will send you our new article which will help you get a deeper understanding of the importance of our Blessed Mother Mary, Mother of God, Coredemptrix and Queen of the whole Universe.

I bless you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
