(St. Timothy & St. Titus)

Jesus said: “My people, in the vision of digging out a basement, you know the taller the building, the deeper and more substantial the foundation needs to be. So it is with Me in the spiritual world that I am the Cornerstone for all foundations in faith. Faith is a gift, but you must nurture it with study and reading of the Scriptures. Someone suggested reading the Gospels at least one page daily in preparation for Lent. By reading My very words of how to live a good Christian life, then you have an example to follow in establishing your own foundation in faith. Once you have this foundation and knowledge, you need to put what you learned into action, and let people see that you are living your faith as a good Christian example. If you are not practicing what you are preaching, then people will have difficulty in believing your message of evangelization. Get your own spiritual house in order before trying to instruct others how to be a Christian. Yet, do not be silent, but preach My Word of love and worship of Me to all the people that you meet. Do not be afraid of criticism, but strive to save as many souls as you can in what little time is left.”

Jesus said: “My people, dating and trying to choose a spouse for marriage can be difficult years when love is so deep between a man and a woman. Everyone remembers their first love experience, yet it is usually not the only one in your life. The difficult part of dating is for the couple to have restraint in any physical relationship before marriage. There are certain limits of sin to follow, especially avoiding fornication, or adultery with a married person. Living together is another lifestyle that should be avoided. If you truly love and respect someone, you should reserve the marriage act for when you are willing to make a life commitment in marriage. Your love should involve your love for Me in avoiding sin that offends Me. Do not think because others live in sin, that it is acceptable behavior before Me. I detest sin in all of its forms because it allows the devil to upset the harmony that I want among mankind. You restrain your eating to avoid overeating and weighing too much. You also need to restrain your sensual pleasures so you can avoid sinful acts. By following My Commandments and being committed to your spouse or future spouse, your love for Me and your spouse can be beautiful as I intended it to be. Pray for the right spouse to be sent to you, because I know more what you will need throughout your lives.”
