Open the eye of your intellect, and wonder 1175 2, 15 | forth, and lose the life of grace. And, as a corpse 1176 2, 15 | have no feeling or movement of itself, but only when it 1177 2, 15 | are drowned in the stream of disordinate love of the 1178 2, 15 | stream of disordinate love of the world, are dead to grace. 1179 2, 15 | their memory takes no heed of My mercy.

I have made them trees 1183 2, 15 | I have made them trees of love with the life of grace 1184 2, 15 | trees of love with the life of grace which they received 1185 2, 15 | and they have become trees of death, because they are 1186 2, 15 | such roots? In the height of pride, which is nourished 1187 2, 15 | vices which destroy the soul of him who is a tree of death, 1188 2, 15 | soul of him who is a tree of death, because he has not 1189 2, 15 | tree is nourished the worm of conscience, which, while 1190 2, 15 | felt but little; the fruits of this tree are mortal, for 1191 2, 15 | humility, from the roots of pride, and the miserable 1192 2, 15 | the miserable soul is full of ingratitude, whence proceeds 1193 2, 16 | How the fruits of this tree are as diverse 1194 2, 16 | are the sins; and first, of the sin of sensuality. ~ 1195 2, 16 | sins; and first, of the sin of sensuality. ~ 1196 2, 16 | The fruits of this death-giving tree, 1197 2, 16 | are diverse. See that some of these fruits are the food 1198 2, 16 | these fruits are the food of beasts who live impurely, 1199 2, 16 | they wallow in the mire of sensuality. Oh, ugly soul, 1200 2, 16 | cannot endure the sight of such filthy actions. Neither 1201 2, 16 | be, take away the light of the intellect from man, 1202 2, 16 | philosophers knew, not by the light of grace, because they had 1203 2, 16 | in order that the thought of them should not occupy their 1204 2, 17 | How the fruit of others is avarice; and of 1205 2, 17 | of others is avarice; and of the evils that proceed from 1206 2, 17 | A fruit of the earth belongs to some 1207 2, 17 | cruel usurers, and robbers of their neighbor; because 1208 2, 17 | have not the remembrance of My mercy, for if they had 1209 2, 17 | are the evils that come of this cursed sin of avarice, 1210 2, 17 | come of this cursed sin of avarice, how many homicides 1211 2, 17 | unlawful gain, and cruelty of heart and injustice! It 1212 2, 17 | and makes her the slave of riches, so that she cares 1213 2, 17 | carries with him the thought of his own reputation, and 1214 2, 17 | combined with pride, full of its own opinions, goes on 1215 2, 17 | always germinates the smoke of vainglory and vanity of 1216 2, 17 | of vainglory and vanity of heart, and boasting in that 1217 2, 17 | miser have any happiness out of his own or others' good. 1218 2, 17 | so wretched a state give of their substance to the poor, 1219 2, 17 | draw their foul soul out of the mire, when they themselves 1220 2, 17 | up, that they may repent of their sins.

Heaven I call 1223 2, 17 | Myself within her, and making of her a mansion through affection 1224 2, 17 | mansion through affection of love. Now she has separated 1225 2, 17 | than Me, and has made a god of herself, persecuting Me 1226 2, 17 | not consider the benefit of the Blood that was shed 1227 2, 17 | shed with so great Fire of Love." ~ 1228 2, 18 | some others hold positions of authority, and bring forth 1229 2, 18 | and bring forth fruits of injustice. ~ 1230 2, 18 | heads high by their position of authority, and who bear 1231 2, 18 | and who bear the banner of injustice -- using injustice 1232 2, 18 | themselves by not paying the debt of virtue, and towards Me by 1233 2, 18 | Me by not paying the debt of honor in glorifying and 1234 2, 18 | and give it to the service of their own sensuality. So 1235 2, 18 | in themselves on account of self-love, like the Jews 1236 2, 18 | the Jews and the ministers of the Law who, with envy and 1237 2, 18 | said My Truth: 'The Kingdom of God is among you.' But they 1238 2, 18 | they had lost the light of reason, and so they did 1239 2, 18 | they did not pay their debt of honor and glory to Me, and 1240 2, 18 | ignominy, even to the death of the Cross. ~ 1241 2, 18 | unjustly selling the flesh of their dependents, and of 1242 2, 18 | of their dependents, and of any person who falls into 1243 2, 19 | into false judgment; and of the indignity to which one 1244 2, 19 | judgment, and with the poison of envy and pride, the works 1245 2, 19 | envy and pride, the works of My Son were slandered and 1246 2, 19 | This man works by virtue of Beelzebub.' Thus wicked 1247 2, 19 | are the servant and slave of sin, and are become like 1248 2, 19 | nothing; it has deprived you of life, and given you death. 1249 2, 19 | He drawing you from out of your servitude when you 1250 2, 19 | servitude when you were servants of the devil, Himself becoming 1251 2, 19 | servant to take you out of servitude, imposing on Himself 1252 2, 19 | do away the disobedience of Adam, and humbling Himself 1253 2, 19 | Himself to the shameful death of the Cross to confound pride. 1254 2, 19 | above, when I said that of His Body He had made an 1255 2, 19 | trampled It under the feet of their disordinate affection; 1256 2, 19 | reproved on the Last Day of Judgment. ~ 1257 2, 19 | who will reprove the world of injustice and false judgment.' 1258 2, 20 | Of the words that Christ said: " 1259 2, 20 | who will reprove the world of injustice and of false judgment;" 1260 2, 20 | the world of injustice and of false judgment;" and how 1261 2, 20 | false judgment;" and how one of these reproofs is continuous. ~ 1262 2, 20 | illuminated by the wisdom of My beloved Son, received 1263 2, 20 | received all in the plenitude of the Holy Spirit. Then the 1264 2, 20 | reproved the world by the mouth of the Apostles, with the doctrine 1265 2, 20 | Apostles, with the doctrine of My Truth. They and all others, 1266 2, 20 | make to the world by means of the Holy Scriptures, and 1267 2, 20 | puts himself on the tongues of his servants, that is to 1268 2, 20 | servants, that is to say, of those who pass through the 1269 2, 20 | in the aforesaid way, out of My most great affection 1270 2, 20 | My most great affection of love for the salvation of 1271 2, 20 | of love for the salvation of souls. And they cannot say ' 1272 2, 20 | made them see the fruit of virtue, and the hurtfulness 1273 2, 20 | virtue, and the hurtfulness of vice, to give them love 1274 2, 20 | and holy fear with hatred of vice and love of virtue, 1275 2, 20 | hatred of vice and love of virtue, and this truth has 1276 2, 20 | feels not the vexations of the flesh as we do, neither 1277 2, 20 | do, neither the heaviness of our body,' because the Incarnate 1278 2, 20 | because the Incarnate Word of My Truth has been given 1279 2, 20 | Mortal creatures, susceptible of pain like you, having the 1280 2, 20 | having the same opposition of the flesh to the Spirit, 1281 2, 20 | permitted for the increase of grace and virtue in their 1282 2, 20 | succor when he comes out of the river, and walks by 1283 2, 20 | following the doctrine of My Truth. Thus no one has 1284 2, 20 | take place at the extremity of death, when My Justice will 1285 2, 20 | have reached the moment of your corporal death, arise 1286 2, 20 | with the extinguished light of faith which you received 1287 2, 20 | blown out with the wind of pride), and with the vanity 1288 2, 20 | pride), and with the vanity of your heart, with which you 1289 2, 20 | salvation, for with the wind of self-esteem, you filled 1290 2, 20 | self-esteem, you filled the sail of self-love.' Thus you hastened 1291 2, 20 | hastened down the stream of the delights and dignities 1292 2, 20 | the delights and dignities of the world at your own will, 1293 2, 20 | flesh and the temptations of the devil, who, with the 1294 2, 20 | devil, who, with the sail of your own will set, has led 1295 2, 21 | Of the second reproof of injustice, 1296 2, 21 | Of the second reproof of injustice, and of false 1297 2, 21 | reproof of injustice, and of false judgment, in general 1298 2, 21 | she is at the extremity of death, where is the worm 1299 2, 21 | death, where is the worm of conscience, which I told 1300 2, 21 | self-love. Now at the time of death, since she cannot 1301 2, 21 | since she cannot get out of My hands, she begins to 1302 2, 21 | her fault, not on account of the pain of Hell that follows 1303 2, 21 | not on account of the pain of Hell that follows upon it, 1304 2, 21 | upon it, but on account of pain at her offense against 1305 2, 21 | But if she pass the Bridge of death without light, and 1306 2, 21 | and alone, with the worm of conscience, without the 1307 2, 21 | conscience, without the hope of the Blood, and bewailing 1308 2, 21 | herself more on account of her first condemnation than 1309 2, 21 | condemnation than on account of My displeasure, she arrives 1310 2, 21 | reproved cruelly by My Justice of injustice and of false judgment, 1311 2, 21 | Justice of injustice and of false judgment, and not 1312 2, 21 | judgment, and not so much of general injustice and false 1313 2, 21 | but much more on account of the particular injustice 1314 2, 21 | committed. Wherefore the despair of Judas displeased Me more, 1315 2, 21 | Son than was his betrayal of Him. So that they are reproved 1316 2, 21 | So that they are reproved of this false judgment, which 1317 2, 21 | them. And they are reproved of injustice because they grieve 1318 2, 21 | bitterness, with contrition of heart, and offer it to Me, 1319 2, 21 | and grieving on account of the pain they expect for 1320 2, 21 | see that they are guilty of injustice and false judgment, 1321 2, 22 | Of the four principal torments 1322 2, 22 | four principal torments of the damned, from which follow 1323 2, 22 | others; and particularly of the foulness of the Devil. ~ 1324 2, 22 | particularly of the foulness of the Devil. ~ 1325 2, 22 | sufficient to narrate the pain of these poor souls. As there 1326 2, 22 | the second, that is love of reputation, whence proceeds 1327 2, 22 | principal torments, out of which proceed all the other 1328 2, 22 | see themselves deprived of the vision of Me, which 1329 2, 22 | themselves deprived of the vision of Me, which is such pain to 1330 2, 22 | then, the second, the worm of Conscience, which gnaws 1331 2, 22 | that the soul is deprived of Me, and of the conversation 1332 2, 22 | soul is deprived of Me, and of the conversation of the 1333 2, 22 | and of the conversation of the angels, through her 1334 2, 22 | through her sin, made worthy of the conversation and sight 1335 2, 22 | the conversation and sight of the devils, which vision 1336 2, 22 | the devils, which vision of the Devil is the third pain 1337 2, 22 | saints exult in the sight of Me, refreshing themselves 1338 2, 22 | joyousness in the fruit of their toils borne for Me 1339 2, 22 | for Me with such abundance of love, and displeasure of 1340 2, 22 | of love, and displeasure of themselves, so does the 1341 2, 22 | themselves, so does the sight of the Devil revive these wretched 1342 2, 22 | have made themselves worthy of him. And so the worm of 1343 2, 22 | of him. And so the worm of Conscience gnaws more and 1344 2, 22 | more and more, and the fire of this Conscience never ceases 1345 2, 22 | horrible that the heart of man could not imagine it. 1346 2, 22 | form for a little space of time, hardly a moment, and 1347 2, 22 | rather to walk on a road of fire, even until the Day 1348 2, 22 | fire, even until the Day of Judgment, than to see him 1349 2, 22 | the soul that is deprived of Me, and more or less according 1350 2, 22 | according to the gravity of her sin. The fourth torment 1351 2, 22 | not consume, for the being of the soul cannot be consumed, 1352 2, 22 | according to the diversity of their sins, to some more, 1353 2, 22 | according to the gravity of their fault. Out of these 1354 2, 22 | gravity of their fault. Out of these four torments issue 1355 2, 22 | cold and heat and gnashing of the teeth and many others. 1356 2, 22 | first reproof that they had of injustice and false judgment, 1357 2, 23 | Of the third reproof which 1358 2, 23 | which is made on the Day of Judgment. ~ 1359 2, 23 | Now it remains to tell of the third reproof which 1360 2, 23 | which is on the Last Day of Judgment. Already I have 1361 2, 23 | Already I have told you of two, and now, so that you 1362 2, 23 | himself, I will tell you of the third -- of the General 1363 2, 23 | tell you of the third -- of the General Judgment, when 1364 2, 23 | Judgment, when the pain of the miserable soul is renewed 1365 2, 23 | Know that, in the Last Day of Judgment, when will come 1366 2, 23 | born, coming in the womb of the Virgin, and being born 1367 2, 23 | just it will cause the fear of reverence with great joy; 1368 2, 23 | after it took the glory of the Resurrection. But, to 1369 2, 23 | Resurrection. But, to the eye of the damned, it will appear 1370 2, 23 | appear such, on account of their terrible and darkened 1371 2, 23 | and it is not the defect of the light that makes it 1372 2, 23 | illuminated one, but the defect of the eye which is infirm), 1373 2, 23 | hatred, not through defect of My Divine Majesty, with 1374 2, 24 | desire good? Because the life of man ended, free-will is 1375 2, 24 | in hatred with the guilt of mortal sin, their souls, 1376 2, 24 | forever bound with the bonds of hatred, and forever obstinate 1377 2, 24 | increase, especially the pains of those who have been the 1378 2, 24 | who have been the cause of damnation to others, as 1379 2, 24 | the world, to tell them of his pains. This, certainly, 1380 2, 24 | certainly, he did not do out of love or compassion for his 1381 2, 24 | brothers, for he was deprived of love and could not desire 1382 2, 24 | their life ended in hatred of Me and of virtue. But why 1383 2, 24 | ended in hatred of Me and of virtue. But why then did 1384 2, 24 | so that he was the cause of their damnation, and he 1385 2, 24 | increased to himself, on account of their damnation when they 1386 2, 25 | Of the glory of the Blessed.~ 1387 2, 25 | Of the glory of the Blessed.~ 1388 2, 25 | finishes in the affection of charity and the bonds of 1389 2, 25 | of charity and the bonds of love, cannot increase in 1390 2, 25 | hunger, but the tediousness of satiety and the pain of 1391 2, 25 | of satiety and the pain of hunger are far from her. 1392 2, 25 | that, with that measure of love, with which they have 1393 2, 25 | they have lived in love of Me and of the neighbor, 1394 2, 25 | lived in love of Me and of the neighbor, united together 1395 2, 25 | good with the affection of love, besides the universal 1396 2, 25 | being all bound in the bonds of love. And they have a special 1397 2, 25 | the occasion to the other of manifesting the glory and 1398 2, 25 | manifesting the glory and praise of My name, in themselves and 1399 2, 25 | have this particular good, of which I have told you, for 1400 2, 25 | participate in the good of that soul, and the soul 1401 2, 25 | earth with the plenitude of grace, and therefore they 1402 2, 25 | exult in Me in the good of that soul, which good she 1403 2, 25 | beauty and the sweetness of My love. And their desires 1404 2, 25 | to Me, for the salvation of the whole world. And because 1405 2, 25 | their life ended in the love of the neighbor, they have 1406 2, 25 | see that in those bonds of love in which they finished 1407 2, 25 | free-will is bound in the bond of love, in such a way that, 1408 2, 25 | them, and, dying in a state of grace, they cannot sin any 1409 2, 25 | all satisfied. The desire of the blessed is to see My 1410 2, 25 | running on towards the term of death. In their desire for 1411 2, 25 | too, to regain the gifts of their body, but this desire 1412 2, 25 | the certainty they feel of having it fulfilled. Their 1413 2, 25 | Wherefore they feel not the pain of desire. And think not, that 1414 2, 25 | think not, that the bliss of the body after the resurrection 1415 2, 25 | because the soul will give of her abundance, and will 1416 2, 25 | herself on the Last Day of Judgment, in the garments 1417 2, 25 | Judgment, in the garments of her own flesh which she 1418 2, 25 | injure it, not by virtue of itself, but by virtue of 1419 2, 25 | of itself, but by virtue of the soul, which virtue is 1420 2, 25 | the soul, which virtue is of Me, given to her by grace, 1421 2, 25 | image and likeness. The eye of your intellect is not sufficient 1422 2, 25 | nor your tongue to tell of the good of the Blessed. 1423 2, 25 | tongue to tell of the good of the Blessed. Oh, how much 1424 2, 25 | I told you of the happiness which the 1425 2, 25 | in the glorified humanity of My only-begotten Son, which 1426 2, 25 | which gives you assurance of your resurrection. There, 1427 2, 25 | and with the whole Body of the sweet Word My Son, and, 1428 2, 25 | in the glorified humanity of the Word, My only-begotten 1429 2, 25 | finished in the affection of My love, and therefore will 1430 2, 25 | but with joy, and the Face of My Son will not seem to 1431 2, 25 | to them terrible, or full of hatred, because they finished 1432 2, 25 | Majesty, but in the vision of those who will be judged 1433 2, 26 | General Judgment, the pain of the damned will increase. ~ 1434 2, 26 | I have told you of the dignity of the Righteous, 1435 2, 26 | told you of the dignity of the Righteous, so that you 1436 2, 26 | the better know the misery of the damned. For this is 1437 2, 26 | damned. For this is another of their pains, namely, the 1438 2, 26 | pains, namely, the vision of the bliss of the righteous, 1439 2, 26 | the vision of the bliss of the righteous, which is 1440 2, 26 | which is to them an increase of pain, as, to the righteous, 1441 2, 26 | righteous, the damnation of the damned is an increase 1442 2, 26 | the damned is an increase of exultation in My goodness. 1443 2, 26 | near light, so the sight of the Blessed increases their 1444 2, 26 | they await the Last Day of Judgment, because they see, 1445 2, 26 | following it, an increase of pain to themselves. And 1446 2, 26 | eternally. And the aspect of My Truth, and of all the 1447 2, 26 | aspect of My Truth, and of all the blessed ones will 1448 2, 26 | them ashamed, and the worm of conscience will gnaw the 1449 2, 26 | conscience will gnaw the pith of the tree, that is the soul, 1450 2, 26 | for them, and by the works of mercy, spiritual and temporal, 1451 2, 26 | I did for them by means of My Son, and which they should 1452 2, 26 | in harshness. At the time of death, the soul only is 1453 2, 26 | companion and instrument of the soul -- to do good and 1454 2, 26 | or bad, is done by means of the body. And, therefore, 1455 2, 26 | rendered eternal pains by means of their body, because their 1456 2, 26 | body was the instrument of evil. Wherefore, being their 1457 2, 26 | and increase at the aspect of My Son, their miserable 1458 2, 26 | filthiness, in the vision of their nature (that is, the 1459 2, 26 | nature (that is, the humanity of Christ), united with the 1460 2, 26 | united with the purity of My Deity, and of this mass 1461 2, 26 | purity of My Deity, and of this mass of their Adam 1462 2, 26 | Deity, and of this mass of their Adam nature raised 1463 2, 26 | raised above all the choirs of Angels, and themselves, 1464 2, 26 | fault, sunk into the depths of Hell. And they will see 1465 2, 26 | ones, who receive the fruit of the Blood of the Lamb, the 1466 2, 26 | receive the fruit of the Blood of the Lamb, the pains that 1467 2, 26 | the cloth, not by virtue of the body but only out of 1468 2, 26 | of the body but only out of the fullness of the soul, 1469 2, 26 | only out of the fullness of the soul, representing in 1470 2, 26 | representing in the body the fruit of its labor, because it was 1471 2, 26 | because it was the companion of the soul in the working 1472 2, 26 | the soul in the working of virtue. As in the mirror 1473 2, 26 | is represented the face of the man, so in the body 1474 2, 26 | is represented the fruit of bodily toils, in the way 1475 2, 26 | The pain and confusion of the darkened ones, on seeing 1476 2, 26 | seeing so great a dignity (of which they are deprived), 1477 2, 26 | bodies will appear the sign of the wickedness they have 1478 2, 26 | wrapped up in diverse filth of earth, according to his 1479 2, 26 | The miser with the filth of avarice, wrapping himself 1480 2, 26 | with envy; and the hater of his neighbor with hatred. 1481 2, 26 | as the head and principle of every evil, in company with 1482 2, 26 | they arrive at the Gate of the Lie, because they follow 1483 2, 26 | they follow the doctrine of the Devil, who is the Father 1484 2, 26 | Devil, who is the Father of Lies; and this Devil is 1485 2, 26 | the Bridge, follow the Way of Truth, and this Truth is 1486 2, 26 | those who have kept the Way of the Lie, which leads them 1487 2, 26 | leads them to the water of death. And it is to this 1488 2, 26 | they have lost the light of faith. The Devil says, as 1489 2, 26 | Whosoever thirsts for the water of death, let him come and 1490 2, 27 | Of the use of temptations, 1491 2, 27 | Of the use of temptations, and how every 1492 2, 27 | sees her final place either of pain or of glory, before 1493 2, 27 | place either of pain or of glory, before she is separated 1494 2, 27 | daughter, is the instrument of My Justice to torment the 1495 2, 27 | receive from Me the glory of victory. And no one should 1496 2, 27 | any battle or temptation of the Devil that may come 1497 2, 27 | have given them strength of will, fortified in the Blood 1498 2, 27 | fortified in the Blood of my Son, which will, neither 1499 2, 27 | you place it in the hands of the Devil, straightway becomes 1500 2, 27 | man do not give this knife of his will into the hands
