Apparition of Saint Padre Pio to Manuela Strack in Sievernich, Germany on November 11, 2024:
“Children of God, pray! Live in the Holy Sacraments so that you might resist the evil one. Where else will you find the strength to resist? Understand that the time of tribulation is full of confusion, full of wrong paths. Make sure that you do not go astray! Look to the Lord, look to Jesus, look to His Most Holy Mother Mary! If you follow my advice, nothing will happen to you, for the Lord is merciful and kind. He does not change His laws, His commandments. Pray for peace! I am happy when you, dear children of God, get to know the Holy Scripture, because you have a great lack of knowledge of God’s Word, yet you can easily read and consider all of this in the Holy Scripture. I have always told you that the Holy Mass, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, is the highest thing on earth. The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass was the crown of my life and the Lord gave me eternal life. Therefore, remain faithful to the Church, for she is the bride of Christ and there is no second bride! Listen to the Word of God and not to the word of the spirit of the times [the Zeitgeist] and that of many who think that they know better. All those who teach in order to be great and famous will crumble to dust. All those who teach for the Lord’s glory will be embraced by the Lord, and so I would like to bless you with the priest and pray for you by the Lord’s throne.”
