Jesus said: “My people, in today’s Gospel (Luke 13:1-9) I remarked to the people when some were killed by the Romans or by a falling tower, that they were equally sinners as the rest of the people. Some people can die in natural disasters, and it was not necessarily a punishment from Me that they died. But there was a second part to My reading that everyone quickly forgets. Just as Jonah told the Ninevites to repent of their sins, then the people put on sackcloth and ashes, and I relented of the punishment that I intended to do to that town. Then again in Sodom and Gomorrah I had My angels remove Lot and his family from these cities, and I brought death and destruction against those evil sinners who did not repent of their sins. Even in your day, I am warning you as I warned the people of My day: ‘Unless you repent of your sins, you could perish from My punishment as well.’ I love everyone and I have mercy on you, but when sinners are unrepentant, they are asking for My justice. You have seen fire and earthquakes ruin the pornography business as punishment in California. Sometimes natural disasters are a punishment for sin. I told you of the homosexual sins and the legalized same sex marriage in San Francisco that is calling for My judgment. Even now they are calling for legalized prostitution. How long do you think that I will put up with such injustice? I tell you these evil ones will be destroyed by an earthquake that will let their city fall into the ocean. The lesson spiritually is that you all have a choice to follow Me or not, but you must be willing to accept the consequences of your actions. My believers will have their eventual reward in heaven, but those, who refuse to love Me or serve Me, will suffer everlasting pain in the fires of hell.”

Jesus said: “My people, your economy is headed for hard times because your people do not want to risk buying any large purchases. With many layoffs going on, people are concerned with losing their good paying jobs and not being able to make any increased monthly payments. Your auto companies, airplane makers, financial companies, housing firms, and any other heavy manufacturers are finding it difficult to sell anything. Soon further industries both at home and abroad will witness the same recession problems of trying to move inventory. Many of your businesses need a good Christmas selling season to make it through the year. As business profits decline, the spiral of job losses and less money in circulation will continue. Pray that your families may find adequate employment to provide for your families. Your families and friends may have to help each other in order to keep your homes and provide for your basic needs. The deeper your recession goes, the harder it will be for your country to recover from your financial crisis. Trust in Me to bring you through this difficult time, even if you have to leave for your refuges when you are tested with chaos and riots.”
