How a Mother Loves Her
Child!
CL-79
15-Jan-96
Jesus
How much a mother loves her child can be seen from her maternal kisses and caresses. This is yet more evident if the sacrifices that she secretly makes for her child are known. Multiply this affection by five, ten children and you will see how much a mother can sacrifice herself and how much she can love her children.
Our Mother, the one "without stain" who gave Me human life, has loved this loveless generation of children, has embraced them tightly, has known all their faults, and has forgiven them the great pain they have caused her.
All mothers must procreate their children, more so with the spirit than with the body. She must transfuse in them treasures greater than the human life, and must give her children all that is beautiful and great in her soul. It is said: "blood can bind so much." How much more can a mother’s love for her children bind? Ah! It is not blood that binds, but love, because love comes before blood, because love lasts long after death.
What happened to My Mother when I poured into her the maternal affection for you too? She became the small, great woman who accepted a countless offspring for My Love, her most Beloved Son. And while she received from Me so much goodness, that it can be said she came to be the fountain of love, from you, the present day generation, she received countless thorns and sorrows.
Thus she loves you above all because of My Love and because you have made her suffer so much. For that reason I grant her the right to make of you a shrine of mercy, over which she will be celebrated in a grand style. She must save you, I want it; she must look after her family and guide them to Me.
So many blaspheme against her! So many have forgotten her! So many cover their ears and have fled from her! But I love her; I have made her extremely powerful. I will not permit you all to insult her anymore; she is extremely dear to Me!
For that reason she will soon clean house. Nevertheless, she is amongst you and is pointing out her good children. Listen to her! She is so good, she knows how to understand everyone, how to forget all offenses. Pay attention to her!

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. In August 2002 Rivas visited Wellington New Zealand and met with Scoop Editor Alastair Thompson.
