Message from St. Peter given to Visionary Maureen Sweeney-Kyle in North Ridgeville, USA

(Temptation)

"St. Peter says: " Praise be to Jesus."

"I have come to help you see that any attack upon the truth is unjustified. In this light understand that to lead a consecrated life, one must also live in the truth."

"Today it is difficult, at best, to discern the reality of truth. Too often power and authority are used to support lies. The temptation to choose such an unjustified path is one of self-interest, not what is best for the salvation of souls. Avarice, love of power and its attendant spirit of love of control take over the heart, removing from the heart the love of souls and their salvation. Often false discernment is the by-product of refusal to accept whom God is working through. This, too, is a grave temptation of pride."

"Each soul is charged with the reality of discovering the truth. To do so, he may need to pray to overcome disordered self-love and all of its subsequent pitfalls - the greatest of which is rash judgment. This, in and of itself, is a great temptation and pitfall of Satan."

"See now, how many things weave together to help or hinder the consecrated soul from living in the truth. Be aware of Satan's snares which take root in pride. With humility search out the truth, for Satan has great difficulty in confusing and tempting the humble heart."
