Katya Rivas: The Passion Extract #4 ….
Reflections of Jesus….
Jesus Prays in the Garden
Nobody really believes that I perspired blood that night at Gethsemane, and few believe that I suffered much more in
those hours than in the Crucifixion. It was more painful because it was clearly revealed to Me that the sins of everyone
were made Mine and that I should answer for each one.
Thus I, being innocent and pure, answered to the Father as if I were really guilty of dishonesty and of all the
impurities committed by you, My brothers. You dishonor God who created you to be instruments of the greatness of
Creation and not to stray from the nature given you with the purpose of gradually taking that nature to lead you to
behold the pure vision of Me, your Creator.
Therefore, I was made thief, murderer, adulterer, liar, a sacrilegious person, blasphemer, slanderer, and rebel to the
Father whom I have always loved.
It was precisely this contrast between My Love for the Father and His Will that caused My perspiration of blood. But I
obeyed until the end and for Love of everyone, I covered Myself with the guilt so that I could do My Father’s Will and
save you from eternal damnation.
Consider how many more than human agonies I had that night and, believe Me, nobody could alleviate such anguish because,
on the contrary, I was seeing how each one of you devoted yourself to making my death cruel at every moment that was
given to Me because of the offenses whose penalty I have paid in full.
I want it to be known once again how I loved all men at that hour of abandonment and sadness without name….

EDITOR’S NOTE: Starting Tuesday, 06 March 2001, in the first week of Lent 2001, Scoop began publication of a series of daily
reflections on spiritual matters from Bolivian author Katya Rivas. Rivas, has received an official imprimatur from the
Catholic Church for several books she says she was instructed to write by Jesus Christ, Mary and various Angels. Scoop’s
extract, above, comes from Rivas’s book “The Passion”. In 1999 Katya Rivas was the subject of a top-rating documentary
show hosted by Mike Willessee (see Scoop TV review - Jesus Christ Tells FOXNews He Wants To Hug World and Scoop Images ). More recently Rivas says she was instructed by Jesus to have her books translated and published on the internet with
the intention of having the books distributed to as wide an audience as possible. Several of the books can now be read
online at http://www.greatcrusade.org/, and more are coming soon.
