INTRODUCTION

BROTHER Stanley Villavicencio, A Filipino lay man from Mambaling

Cebu City, Philippines, is a man who experienced God’s love and mercy
through a life changing miracle that happened to him. Because of his
obedience to God’s call and his childlike trust in God, he trusted his family
completely to god’s merciful love and care and started giving his life
testimony which was investigated by no less than Ricardo Cardinal Vidal of
the Archdiocese of Cebu has been declared as authentic. He was allowed by
CBCP to give testimony through a signed letter of endorsement by MSGR.
Pedro Quitorio.
The testimony of his encounter with Jesus Christ the Divine Mercy
happened on March 2, 1993. To this day he has received 34 messages and
has not stopped spreading god’s messages of mercy to the world. Everytime
he received messages from Jesus, his spiritual director, Msgr. Cris Garcia of
the Archdiocese of Cebu would know that he received messages through
internal locution.
By reading this compilation of his testimony, some testimonies of
people who have listened to his talks, as well as the messages from Jesus,
we hope and pray that Jesus will be alive again in people’s hearts. We hope
that this will give people hope, peace and the knowledge that God’s love for
us is truly unfathomable; that we can beg for as much mercy as we can
because God has an ocean of mercy; that He is aching to pour out His mercy
to us if we ask for it.

MESSAGES OF JESUS THE DIVINE MERCY TO BRO. STANLEY

As of this account, Stanley has had 34 encounters with Jesus of the

Divine Mercy in his dream where he has received several messages. Mgr.
Cris Garcia, his spiritual director who had been endowed with the gift of
internal locution, is made aware of each encounter with Jesus. Stanley writes
down the message and submits it to Msgr. Cris who in turn confirms the
message and clears the message with Cardinal Vidal. The original messages
are written by hand to ensure no alternations are made.
Stanley reports that during the 2nd to the 7th encounter with him, Jesus
just smiled and remained silent before him.
In the 8th dream, Stanley was shown that Msgr. Cris was to be his
spiritual director.
Jesus blessed Stanley in the 9th dream before Stanley’s first stint to
Mindanao where he was guided to go by a boat. Before the trip, Cebu was
under storm warning no.3 yet from the time they sailed from Cebu and
arrived in Mindanao, the sea remained calm.
In his 10th dream, Jesus brought Stanley to a beautiful garden. Jesus
then flew him around the world to see all races of people from different
nations.
Stanley’s 11th dream encounter happened early in the morning when
due to the heat, he took off his shirt and sleepily (almost falling asleep) said
his 3:00 a.m. prayers. When Jesus appeared, He spoke out loud, “don’t I
deserve respect?” Stanley apologized profusely, dressed up and prayed
attentively.

My son, my son, thank you for being always obedient and
consistent in doing your mission. But I tell you this, “I’m your
strength because this is My own personal crusade to fulfill what was
written. “Blessed are those who are pure in heart for the gates of
heaven are so wide open for them. So, now is the time for them to
cleanse and reconcile because of them I am prolonging the time of
mercy. But I cannot hold it for long.
I love you my son.

My Lord, my God, so many are in trouble about the building of the
shrine, what shall I do?
My son, my son, build Me a shrine in each and everyone’s
heart, I need a living shrine, full of love with a trusting soul. Their
trust should be how to save souls in so short a time, not in a lifeless
stone.
They can serve Me better by promoting my unfathomable
mercy to all souls with humility.
Pray, pray, the chaplet without ceasing, it will be their shield
against the enemies.
He smiles and hugs me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 21: Cagayan de Oro City (Bro. Ali and Sis. Vicky Baguio res.), 3:15 p.m.,
March 2, 1998
My Lord, my god, thank you for giving me the privilege to serve you
and help spread your own personal devotion.
My son, my son, we have commissioned you for this task, and
thank you for being faithful in your mission before God. We have
called so many, yet so few responded. Attachment to the world
hinders their confidence in Me. Sins of distrust wound Me most
painfully. If only they knew how to gather eternal treasures, they
will not be judged on Judgment Day.
Please include in your mission the importance of the
Sacraments. The significance of this Institution is so much abused
and made useless. Pray, pray, the Chaplet and recommend it to all,
as the Last Hope of Salvation. I love you my son.
He smiles and hugs me and He is gone.

No. 22: Taytay, Rizal (Bro. Crispin & Jocelyn Misanes res.), 3:00 a.m., 19
October 1998
My son, my son, heaven rejoices as your team are leading so
many souls to salvation. It consoles My Mother. Keep up, be strong,
it won’t be long.
After this, Era of Peace comes, as what is written. But before
it, struggle of great magnitude unseen before, takes place. All the
signs are already present. So now is the time for them to choose
between Mercy and Justice. Between Heaven or Hell no other. As the
time comes let them pray the Chaplet and the Rosary unceasingly as
their last shield.
To those who propagate My Mercy I promise to be merciful to
them as the time comes, but they have to put mercy into action. I
love you my son.
He smiles and hugs me and He is gone.

No. 23: Tin Lok Lane, Wan Chai, Hong Kong (sis. Cora Joya’s flat), 3:15 a.m.,
17 June 99
My son, my son, thank you for loving your mission. It gives you
more strength and stimuli to preach the truth of My Infinite Mercy.
But man loves so much the world that so many refuse to return to
me, and repent for their sins. If only they realize how it is to suffer
in Hell, they will open their ears and listen to Me. They should trust
My Mercy and be ashamed of their sins. And I will not remember
their sins anymore. They must repent now before it is too late. But
my son beware because Satan is now doing everything to destroy
you, so please be strong, because after this your happiness will be
for eternity, it won’t be long.
I love you my son. I will be with you always.
He smiles and hugs me. He blesses me and he is gone.

No. 24: Daughters of St. Dominic, Tagaytay City, 3:15 a.m., 19 Sept. 99
My son, my son, you have been anointed to preach My Mercy
and call sinners to repentance, so you have to do My Will and I will
work with you.
Yes, my Lord, my god, and thank You my Lord for the wonderful graces
and blessing you showered us especially to my family.
My son, my son, my generosity knows no limit to those who
trust Me. but man becomes lovers of themselves and preferred the
lust of the flesh, much more than the love of the Living God. As if
they want to ignore the existence of hell.
My Lord, my God, so many claimed receiving messages from Mama
Mary yet refuse to be controlled or studied by Your Church.
My son, my son, obedience is more than sacrifice. If you cannot
obey those in authority then all your efforts will be put into waste.
Spiritual pride leads them to perdition, without even knowing it. So
let them pray the Chaplet and the Rosary unceasingly and ask for
the gift of discernment for guidance. I love you my son. I will be
with you always.
He smiles and hugs me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 25: Tabada, Mambaling, Cebu City, 3:30 a.m., 30 June 00 (Feast of the
Sacred Heart)
My son, my son, thank you for being always trustful and
obedient to the Will of Heaven. And please encourage the faithful to
multiply their prayers for my beloved priests, because they are my
precious jewels, although some of them cause My Heart to bleed.
But still I will bless them abundantly, in time and in eternity. Much
more if they stay longer in the confessional. Because that is where
mercy flows greater than all sins committed by any living creature.
So please exert more effort to proclaim that Satan is real and
that Hell really exists. You cannot serve two masters at the same
time. So, now is the time to turn to My Mother and to My
Unfathomable mercy, there I no other choice, time is running out.
I love you my son.
He smiles and hugs me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 26: John the Evangelist, Dublin Ireland, 3:30 a.m., July 3, 2001
My son, my son thank you for being always faithful to your
mission and obedient to the will of heaven. My son if only man
would realize the disastrous effect of sin, which wreak havoc,
suffering and threatens so many souls to damnation, they would go
back and unite with me. Souls will never have pace until they turn
to the abyss of My Mercy, and it is only through My Mercy that they
will find comfort and feel the presence of My Love.
They should not be afraid to go back to Me even if their sins be
as plentiful as the stars in the sky. All will be forgiven in the ocean
of My Mercy because this devotion is God’s gift to mankind.
All they need is to trust Me.
I love you my son.
I will always be with you!
He hugs me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 27: Tabada, Mambaling, Cebu City, 3:10 a.m., August 22, 2001
 My Lord, My God, so many ask me, I pray the chaplet everyday, I pray
the rosary everyday, I attend mass every day, but why is my family
very far from the Lord. Even if I force them, still they refuse. Even if I
force them, still they refuse.
My son, my son, do not force them. Do not force them, because
you cannot change a person. Only God can change a person and
only prayers can move God. So, multiply your prayers for the
sinners, because the sinners do not pray for themselves anymore.
And if you stop praying for them, it is as if you are throwing them to
fire. But if you continue prying for that person before that person
dies, he will go back to the Lord…before that person dies, he will go
back to the Lord.
I love you my son.
He hugs me.
He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 28: Tabada, Mambaling, Cebu City, 3:30 a.m. July 23, 2002
My son, my son, please do not be upset. It is just an acid test.
Because Satan is so afraid souls will hear about My Unfathomable
Mercy. He is so afraid that so many, so many would immerse in the
ocean of My Mercy.
So please go on with the gathering and proclaim My Mercy to
all souls. I am not weighing on how successful your mission but on
your loyalty to heaven. Son, just double your prayers, do your best
and I do the rest.
I promise to be there. I will run that convention personally
because this is My own personal battle.
I love you my son.
He hugs me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 30: BF Homes Parañaque City (Roxas Residence), 3;30 a.m., July 14,
2003
My son, my son, thank you for being always obedient. Heaven
is very happy with your mission. They please My Heart and My
Mother’s. We can see your sincerity to serve and save souls. So I not
only work with you, but I work in you. Please do more to help
strengthen My church, because so many are just playing with the
Sacraments. How can they love Me if at the same time hurts Me?
They should realize that a sin is a sin. No compromise, no double
standard. They should and must correct their lives now, before it
would be too late. The door of mercy won’t be for long… I love you
my son.
He blessed me and He was gone.

No. 31: Shizuoka-ken, Kinkugawa-Shi Narano, Japan (Bro. Toyoaki & Sis.
Remy Suzuki, Residence), 3:15 a.m., February 22, 2005
My Lord, my God, thank you for being always merciful. But my Lord,
my God, why it is so hard to sell your devotion? So many can’t just accept
your Mercy. And even more some commented, “It is just too good to be
true.” And it hurts me very much everytime I hear it.
My son, my son, just go on proclaiming My Mercy. Time is so
ripe, it won’t be long. They can refuse or reject My Mercy, but I
assure you, nobody, nobody, can escape my justice. So please
persevere… I love you my son.
He blesses me, he hugs me and he is gone.

No. 32: Banette Shinohara, Adachi-Ku, Umejma 3-28-4 Rm. 103, Tokyo, 3:15
a.m., September 02, 2006
My son, my son, please tell your Japan team, “Thank you very
very much for helping spread My own personal devotion.” It leads
so many souls back to salvation. Heaven is so happy… So, I promise
to be merciful to them when the time comes… As I said before. “he
who saves a soul, saves his own.’ Please beg them to persevere.
Time is short now.
 I love you my son.
He hugs me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 33: Bro. Paul/Sis. Tricia Roxas, BF Parañaque 3:33 a.m., December 5,
2007
My Lord, my God, it is a privilege and an honor to serve You.
My son, my son, you have been chosen to help clear the way.
You are the walking icon of God’s mercy for the world. Because after
my mercy I will rule as a King. But I am a just judge. So, please
persevere. It won’t be long. I love you my son.
He embraces me. He blesses me and He is gone.

No. 34: Charles and Marita Morgan Residence, 810 Schirra Drive, Oradell,
New jersey 0769, 3:45 a.m., March 8, 2009
My Lord, my God, so many are begging me to ask you if what is the
difference between the healing mass and an ordinary mass?
“My son, my son, all masses are the same because I am really
present in all masses celebrated in the world. And what you receive
during Holy Communion is My real Body and Blood not just an
ordinary bread. But healing starts at the confessional. So please
encourage the faithful to go back to the sacrament of confession.
Because I Myself act on the soul. I am just waiting for you there. So
please persevere. I love you my son. “
He embraces me. He blesses me and He is gone.

INTERNAL LOCUTION:
On the day brother Stanley came to One Heart Family, he received
internal locution from Jesus on February 8, 2003 at 3:30 a.m.
My Lord, my God, why some of your workers find it hard to put mercy
into practice? Jesus said, “My son, my son, spiritual pride lead so many
souls to damnation without even knowing it. So please encourage
them to proclaim My Mercy with utmost humility, so they can obtain
greatness in the eyes of God, not of the world.”

No. 35: Bro. Reuben /Sis Tanya Ortiz 11608 Arroyo de Vista, NE Albuquerque,
New Mexico 87111 USA, 3;15 a.m. March 2, 2010
My son, my son, thank you very much for your unwavering
efforts to spread My unfathomable mercy. It lead so many lost souls
back to salvation. Heaven is rejoicing. But please encourage the
faithful to give more respect to the sacrament. And be modest when
they enter My Church because inside the church they don’t please
the eyes of men but the eyes of God. If they believe that I am God
then they should trust Me.
And congratulation my son. Today is your 17th year when I
called you. I love you my son and always be assured I work in you.
He embraces me. He blesses me. And He is gone.
TESTIMONY

What I am going to tell you is what happened to me, about my

personal encounter with Jesus Christ of the Divine Mercy. When you hear my
testimony, I hope it will increase your faith, and that you will know that there
really is a God and that our God is a living God. What happened to me,
happened on March 2, 1993. That was Tuesday and a birthday of one of my
children. By the way, at that time, I had ten children, but now, I have
thirteen. And by the way, I am a member of the Perpetual Dawn Rosary.
It is our practice that whenever there is an occasion at our house, we
invite the statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary and it is also our practice that
whenever the Virgin comes into our house, it is I who has to receive the
Virgin. But on that day, when the Virgin is already in our house, whatever
they do to wake me up, I cannot be awaken, so it was my mother in law who
received the Virgin.
At eight o’clock that morning, my mother in law said, she heard me
moaning and moaning. She tried to look at me in my room and she found me
lying in bed, trembling vigorously and blood coming out of my mouth. It also
happened that the sister of my father-in-law who is a nurse was present and
attended to me immediately. And she touched my pulse beat, she cannot
find any pulse beat anymore and as she touches my chest, my heart beat is
very slow. And when they opened my eyes both eyes are already white, so
they asked help from our neighbors and they brought me to Chong Hua
Hospital, they hired four specialist doctors and the doctor said that my
chance of survival is one in a million, because my heart beat is already very
very slow.
As I enter the emergency room, I cannot breathe anymore, even with
the help of oxygen, so they transferred me to I.C.U. or the Intensive Care
Unit, so my breathing can be aided thru ambubagging or forcing oxygen
inside. At the I.C.U., my trembling did not stop and the blood was still coming
out from my mouth, so the doctor injected me with Valium to control
everything.
 Because Negros Island and Cebu are just very near, so that very day
my relatives arrived. Among them is my father who is a doctor and my sister
who is also a doctor and the cousin of my wife; who is a doctor was also
present. By the way, my wife is also a nurse.
The following day, the doctors called up my wife and asked her
permission to take off all the life support apparatus attached to my body
because they said there is no more chance of survival. And because there is
no more chance of survival so my wife called up our house and asked that
my long sleeve shirt for my burial be prepared. And my mother-in-law says
she has a memorial plan and that her memorial plan is transferable. So she
had it transferred to my name. Meaning! I will be the one to use her coffin.
And it also happened we had a reservation at the Queen City Garden, a
Cemetery in Cebu, because when my father-in-law died in 1987, we bought
three lots, so they processed all the papers so they can bring me to the
Queen City Garden. Meaning, everything is already ready. I have the long
shirt to wear for my burial, I have already a coffin to stay in, I have already a
cemetery to live in.
But God has a different plan, because none of my relatives agree to
remove all the life support apparatus attached to my body. In fact, they take
turns in bagging me. But it is only my body present at the I.C.U. of Chong
Hua Hospital, because I saw a light, a very big bright light, but not glaring.
You can stare at it, it is like a fog as it slowly evaporates, until I notice
someone is standing in front of me. And when I look at His face, I recognize
him as Jesus.
As we are looking at each other He raised His left hand and when He
raised His left hand the clouds above were sucked downwards and when
they reach just above us, the clouds keep on turning and changes in colors
and when it stops it becomes a video screen. And he showed the film of my
life, from my childhood up to my present. And I notice that every time I do
good, it just goes on normally and I also notice that every time I commit a
sin, suddenly it would go into slow motion as if he wants to show us that
what we have done is wrong, as if he wants to show us that what we have
done is a sin. And because I have also committed bigger sins, sins like what
we call mortal sin.
Every time it shows up, suddenly it would stop, close it up and enlarge
it. Then I said to myself: why should this be included? There must be no
Board of Censor in Heaven, because it is just too bad to look at, but even if I
closed my eyes I could still see it.
Also I notice that everytime I commit a sin, I could feel the heaviness. I
could feel the heat. The more I commit sin, the more the heaviness, the
more the heat. And I also notice that everytime I do good, for example, if I
give something to the poor, I could feel as if I’m floating. So it is really true
what is written in the Bible, “That whatsoever you do to the least of your
brethren, that you do unto Me.” And I also notice that the sins I did not
confess to a Priest it is too heavy. And we cannot deny anything because the
screen is so big and very clear and also the pictures are also big and below
the pictures are written the day, the month, the dates and the year and also
below that, hour is written, the minutes, and the seconds. So, we cannot
deny anything because even the seconds are recorded. In fact, He reviewed
my film three times and after our long conversation, He tapped my shoulder
and as He was tapping my shoulder, He said to me:
“You go back now, because you still have so many things to do. You
still have so many things to finish. If I have something for you or if I
have a message for you I will just appear to you in your dream.”
After He says that, I at the I.C.U. of the Chong Hua Hospital, suddenly I
got up I could feel my body so light and my head so fresh. That when got up,
I removed the oxygen from my nose. After removing oxygen, there is a tube
going down into my intestine, so I slowly removed the tube because it tickles
me. And after removing the tube, I slowly removed the I.V. from my hand
and because there was a nurse who saw everything, and that she was so
afraid that she ran away. In fact, the nurse said, one of the heels of her
shoes was broken.
When the nurse returns she has other nurses, doctors and the
technicians, they are all running and when they reach me, they help put me
to bed again. And one of the doctors put in his stethoscope and examined
me and after a short examination, the doctor put off his stethoscope, put it
beside him and he asked for another. Meaning! He did not believe his
stethoscope and he put it on and re –examined me again and after a long
examination, the doctor looked at my E.C.G. and he said, since I was
admitted t the I.C.U. my E.C.G. was just in straight line, but now they were so
surprised because my E.C.G. is working normally and because the
technicians were already present, they subjected me to ultra sound, s-rays,
laboratory tests and brain scan. And now all the results are in negative,
meaning, I am not sick.
The doctors were all surprised and they asked permission from my wife
to have another set of examinations, because they said there might be
something wrong with the apparatus and my wife concede, and they
subjected me again to another ultra sound, laboratory tests and brain scan
except for x-rays. And again all the results were in negative: meaning, I am
not really sick. So the doctors said to my wife: “there is nothing now that we
can do, it is already a miracle. You better have a mass celebrated for this
purpose.”
When I woke up, I woke up at eight o’clock in the morning of Friday. If
you will count it from eight o’clock in the morning of Tuesday to eight o’clock
in the morning of Friday, that is exactly three days. And because of that the
media alerted. The television, the radio and newspaper. And because our
Church, the Roman Catholic Church does not just easily believe in miracles,
so it has to be investigated and the investigation was led by Ricardo Cardinal
Vidal of Cebu.

Cardinal Vidal leads the investigation in March until the middle of

September. Cardinal Vidal released a letter confirming what happened to
me. And he gives me an endorsement letter, so I can give testimony around
the world specially that one of the doctors who was assigned to me at the
I.C.U., he is not just an ordinary doctor because when he graduated
medicine, he graduated Magna Cum Laude when he took the medical board
exams, he is the Board Topnotcher. Meaning he got the highest score all
over the country and when he entered Chong Hua Hospital he was awarded
as the most outstanding P.G.I. doctor and when he is already a resident
doctor of Chong Hua Hospital he was assigned to me in the I.C.U. from the
very beginning until I woke up three days after. And because he cannot sleep
anymore, so he entered the seminary to become a Priest, and now he is
already a Priest.

From March 1993 up to now, Jesus keeps appearing to me to my

dream. That is also accepted by our local Church. Because my Spiritual
Director is Monsignor Cris Garcia. He is one of the holiest Priests in Cebu and
he is also gifted. He has the gift of inner locution (inner telepathic voice),
meaning he can talk to Jesus. But he cannot see Jesus. But Jesus appears to
me, to my dream, where I can see Him. And what is best for us! Every time
Jesus appears to me, He also tells my Spiritual Director, so there is a
confirmation. That is why, wherever I go, it is embraced by the Church.

Also during the investigation, the doctors asked the Priest: “where
does the blood come from because there is no wound and why I was not
short of blood, because the blood coming out from my mouth is with
pressure and continuously for several hours and why there was no blood
transfusion because when I woke up everything is normal.” So the priest
prayed and after praying they answered that those blood coming out from
my mouth is for cleansing. I have to be cleansed because I have to face the
Lord.

Also they asked me: “Why you? Why did Jesus choose you?” So I
answered them. Maybe because I am nothing. Maybe because I have nothing
to be proud of except for my sins. So, when I have a conversion with the
Lord, I asked the Lord: “My Lord, my God, why me? I’m a sinner and I am a
sinful man, there are so many much more worthy than me. Why me?” and
Jesus answered: “You cannot appreciate the beauty of My Mercy
unless you experience the misery of sin.” So I accepted the mission.

That is why now, in the Philippines, the chaplet is very popular, not
only among the Catholics but also to the other Church denominations
because there are so many miracles that have been attributed to the
chaplet. For example: my spiritual director, Monsignor Cris Garcia, he had a
slight stroke. So he was admitted at the hospital, and the doctor said that he
had a brain tumor and that there is a virus in his brain and that he cannot
open his eyes because it is too painful. We went to the hospital and we
prayed the chaplet together with Msgr. Cris Garcia, several minutes later
Msgr. Cris stood up and we have a conversation and several minutes later,
he asked for his laptop computer. So you see the power of the chaplet.

The following day, we prayed again the chaplet together with Msgr.
Cris Garcia and after praying the chaplet, the doctors re-examined him and
found him negative of everything. So on the third day he checked out the
hospital as if nothing had happened. You see the power of the chaplet?

Also, one of our Divine Mercy leaders in Katipunan, Dipolog in the

Philippines, his wife was ill early in the morning. So they brought his wife to
the hospital. The doctors gave him a prescription pad to buy the medicine
and because at that time he has no money, so he has to sell his pig. And the
buyer paid him for the pig, but the buyer said that he would get the pig the
following day. But that afternoon that very day, the pig refused to stand up
and refused to eat. So he was so worried, because if something happens to
the pig, they will be in trouble because, they already consumed the money
to buy medicine. So he called all his children and explained to them
everything; that they have to pray the chaplet for the pig. So they prayed
the chaplet. But at the middle of praying the chaplet the children were
laughing. They were all laughing because they said it is better to pray the
chaplet to a person but not for a pig. He explained it again to them. He
explained it again and again. And on the third time that they prayed the
chaplet, the children prayed intensely. After they finished praying the
chaplet, the pig suddenly stood up and one of the children ran and get some
food for the pig and the pig consumed everything. And the lesson is, if Jesus
answered our prayer for a pig, how much more if we pray the chaplet for a
human being.

We have another leader of the Divine Mercy in the Philippines. He has

several acres of rice fields and because he is poor he cannot afford to buy
fertilizer and insecticides. So, what he did every morning, he would roam
around his rice field and pray the chaplet of the Divine Mercy, everyday!
Every morning! And also every afternoon. During the harvest time, his
harvest is much more than those using fertilizer and insecticides. So you see
the miracle of the chaplet!

Also I asked the Lord, “What are the sins that You cannot forgive?”
Jesus said: “All sins can be forgiven except if you refuse to believe
that your sin can still be forgiven.” Because Jesus said by refusing His
mercy you are also refusing to believe that He is a God. That is why
Jesus said: “Before I come as a Just Judge, I will open wide the door of
MY MERCY.” But Jesus continued that “He who refuses to pass through
the doors of My Mercy will have to pass through the door of My
Justice.”
 Now, after a long while that Jesus is opening this door of mercy and
after a long while He will close that door of mercy and if He will close the
door of mercy then He will open the door of Justice. And if He will open the
door of His Justice then who can enter Heaven? When Heaven is only for the
pure, when Heaven is only for the clean. And who are clean? And who are
the pure? All of us are sinners. All of us are unclean. We can only enter
Heaven through His mercy, through His love. Without God’s mercy, without
God’s love, it is too difficult to enter Heaven. That is why Jesus now is
begging to go out and proclaim His Mercy and that His Mercy is
unfathomable but Jesus also said: “Proclaiming My Mercy is not enough,
you have to put mercy into action, and how? By living as an example
of My Mercy.” And I will close this testimony with another phrase from
Jesus when He said to me: “He who saves a soul saves his own.”

We will have a question and answer. I am not allowed by the Church to

pray over, to do healing or lay hands to anybody because Cardinal Vidal said
I should just do my evangelization, because he said, “there are some who
are given the gift of healing, they will continue their healing.” But then it
cannot be avoided that during my talk so many people are attending, so
Cardinal Vidal arranged a veneration to the image of the Divine Mercy, so
the sick people and those who have problem will ask directly to Jesus for
their healing, not through me because I am only a human being. After that,
this image becomes a miraculous image, because there are so many instant
healings and also sometimes when I give testimony, people see lights
coming out from His body. That is why there are some ripples of His body (of
the image). The light has a heat and the heat destroyed the plastic. Because
so many people said that Jesus is emanating lights and sometimes they say
that Jesus gets out from the frame. And they said everytime Jesus gets out
from the frame, the frame becomes empty. And it didn’t only happen in the
Philippines. It also happened in Hongkong, Macau, Mainland China, Japan, in
New York, New Jersey, Washington D.C., Pennsylvania, Chicago, North
Dakota, Texas, Alabama, Georgia all over the United States and in Canada,
Mexico and Brazil. It also happened in Europe especially Ireland, England,
France, Czechoslovakia, Switzerland, Germany, Poland, Italy and the Vatican
because I have also said my testimony in Vatican in front of some cardinals
and archbishops all over the world and they saw Jesus get off from the frame
meaning during the veneration (showing respect and appreciation) Jesus is
really present. So during the veneration, talk to Him and ask Him anything
you want because as long as what you are asking for is not against His will,
He will give it to you because nothing is impossible with the Lord. And then
after Jesus, you have to pass thru Mama Mary because Mama Mary said, “I
am the Mother of Mercy”. And that without Mama Mary there is no Jesus.
That’s why wherever the Son is, there is the Mother, wherever the Mother is,
there is the Son.

INTERVIEW WITH BROTHER STANLEY VILLAVICENCIO

Interviewed and translated to English by Nini Marquez

Q: Can we confess direct to God not to a priest anymore?

A: Well it is stated in the Bible that whosoever is forgiven on earth is

forgiven in heaven. Whosoever is not forgiven on earth is not forgiven in
heaven. If you believe that the Bible is the word of God, we have to obey the
Bible. Truth is, wherever I go, many are telling me, “Brother can we go
straight to God and not to pass through the priests because the priests are
also human, they also sin that is why it is better to go straight to God? So I
ask you now, “Do you think a priest can commit a sin or not?” They say. Yes,
the priests also sin. But actually, the truth is, a priest cannot commit a sin,
because the name priest is just a title, just like a doctor, attorney, engineer.
So how can a title commit a sin? It is the person and not the priest who sin.
So let us not look at them as persons. Let us look at them as priests. Why do
we go to church? We go to church so we can receive a blessing. Now, when
we enter the church and we see the priest and what we saw is his person, in
our minds we have already committed a sin. So instead of receiving a grace,
we end up being disgraced.

This is what happening in the confessional. In the confession, the priest

does not say, “in the name of Monsignor Cris Your sins are forgiven.” No. He
will say “…in the name of the Father, of the Son, of the Holy Spirit”, so it
means it is heaven who forgives, not the person who became a priest. So let
us not look at them as persons. Let us look at them as priests.

The best example for this is the broom. What is the broom to you, is it
clean or dirty? Then they will say …dirty! Then I will say if it is dirty, why do
you use it to clean the dirt? This is what happens to a person who became a
priest. Even if his person is sinful even if his person is dirty still he is used by
the Lord to cleanse our soul. So, we really need to confess to a priest. We
really need to confess to a priest.

Q. What is the message of Jesus to the priests?

A: Jesus said. “Please multiply your prayers for my beloved priests

because they are my precious jewels. Although some of them cause
my heart to bleed, but still I will bless them abundantly in time and
in eternity much more if they will stay longer at the confessional”
because Jesus said. “It is at the confessional that mercy flows greater
than all the sins committed by any living creature.” So here we can
realize how important confession is.

Q: Other denominations comment that the catholic prayers are

repetitious. What do you think about this?

A: One time, I gave my testimony to a big company. The problem there was,
the employees have different religion. We first prayed the Rosary for Mama
Mary, then we prayed the chaplet of the divine Mercy and the input, the
testimony and then question and answer, those who belong to other religions
stood up and said. “Brother Stanley, why is your prayer repetitious? Isn’t
your rosary repetitious, your chaplet repetitious? And then, they faced the
people and said… “Didn’t you hear their prayers? All are repetitious! It was
as if they were trying to excite the people. With this, my blood began to boil
and so I asked them. “Is there anything in this world that is not repetitious?
Do you not eat everyday? Do you not move your bowel everyday? Do you
not drink everyday? Do you not urinate everyday? Do you not sleep
everyday? Do you not wake up everyday? Only one is not repeated. We only
die once, unless He sends us back for a purpose but everything is
repetitious. Isn’t your breath repetitious? Do you like me to cut it off? They
could not answer. Truth is everything in this world is repetitious. The sun
comes back, the night comes back, the rain comes back, the typhoon comes
back, everything in this world comes back so if someone will ask you why our
prayers are repetitious, you answer in this way. Isn’t your breath repetitious?
You want me to cut it?

There is also somebody from another religion who stood up and said
“Brother Stanley, why are Catholics shameless? You Catholics, you commit
sin and then after sinning, you go to the priest to confess. After you confess,
you sin gain, then you go back again to the priest and confess. Are you not
ashamed? Your faces are calloused and you are really shameless. So I told
him, “Brother, you are okay because you are not a Catholic, but we
Catholics, we have sacraments and included in these sacraments is
confession so everytime we commit sin, we go back to the priest to confess.
But you have no sacraments so you don’t have a problem. Then he said. ‘No,
it is better for you not to confess because just the same you will sin again so
it is better for you not to go to confession. I got irritated so I told him,
“Brother, if that is your principle, this is what you should do. If you move a
bowel, don’t wash because just the same, you will again move your bowel.
Why do you have to wash? Let us see now who has a fouler smell.

Q. Is salvation only for Catholics? How about other religion? Can

they be saved?

A: Truth is, salvation is a free gift from God. So it means we cannot buy
salvation. And if God will be followed, He likes to bring everybody to heaven.
If His will is followed, He likes everybody to enter heaven. However, it is the
people who are avoiding heaven. Because people have so loved the world,
and because of this love for the world, he ends up committing sin, continues
to commit sin, enjoys committing sin, and even justifies his sins. So this
means, people are the ones who avoid heaven. Truth is, religion cannot save
us and will not save us. Religion will only guide us to salvation. What will
save us is not religion but it is us who can save ourselves. Meaning, salvation
is not in religion. I cannot believe that only Catholics can be saved, because
there are so many Catholics who are so bad. So religion depends on how we
are able to fulfill God’s will.

However, among the many religions we have now, it is only the Roman
Catholic Church that believes indulgence, because the other religion they
don’t believe in indulgence. In fact the Roman Catholic Church has offered
two kinds of indulgences. One, we call plenary indulgence. Jesus explained to
me the real meaning of a plenary indulgence. Jesus said, “A plenary
indulgence is the total erasures of all the punishments for the sins
that are already forgiven.”

Because the truth is when we confess to a priest, ours sins are forgiven but
the punishment remains. That is why, when we die, we cannot just go
straight to heaven. We have to pass through purgatory to pay for the
punishment of our sins. And after paying for the punishment, that is the time
we can enter heaven. But if a person receives plenary indulgence, whatever
happens to him, he will just go straight to heaven because plenary means
total or complete.
 The best example fort the plenary indulgence so you can easily
understand it, is the Feast of the Divine Mercy. The grace that we will receive
on the Feast of the Divine Mercy is what our church calls a plenary
indulgence. For example, today is the Feast of the Divine Mercy, then we are
in state of grace, we went to mass and received Communion. Actually in the
book of Sister Faustina, we have to confess, hear mass and receive
communion on the day of the Feast of the Divine Mercy. But then Cardinal
Vidal said that it is impossible for all the people to confess at the same time
on this day because we have very few priests, so he said that if we have
mortal sin, we have to go to confession. But if we do not have mortal sin, we
can go to mass. If we only have venial sins, we can go to mass then offer our
venial sins especially during the consecration and it will be erased. So when
you receive Holy Communion, you are already in the state of grace.

For example, today, Feast of Divine Mercy, and you go to mass,

receive Holy Communion, it means you have the received plenary
indulgence, all the punishments for your sins from childhood up to today will
all be erased. Whatever happens to you, you will go straight to heaven. You
will not pass through purgatory because plenary means total or complete.

Another example, if today is the Feast of Divine Mercy and you

received the plenary indulgence, you are still alive the next day, and you
sinned again, whatever happens to you, your payment will be very little. So
the Feast of the Divine Mercy is an extraordinary grace. This is an example of
a plenary indulgence.
Partial indulgence means partial. For better understanding, we will
make an example. Partial indulgence is anything good you do like masses,
novenas, rosaries, chaplets, corporal works of mercy, and spiritual works of
mercy. Let us take the soul of Pedro for example. His soul is in purgatory to
pay for the punishments for his sins. For example, the soul of Pedro will have
to stay in purgatory for 50 years. Because you love Pedro, so you always
offer masses for him, novenas for his soul, rosaries, chaplets, corporal works
of mercy and spiritual works of mercy and all that you do are offered for
Pedro. His 50 years will depend on our Lord. If you continue offering masses
and novenas for his soul, the years will be reduced until it is erased. Then the
soul of Pedro can now enter heaven. If Pedro enters heaven, he will not do
anything except to pray for you because you are responsible why he entered
heaven. In gratitude, he will not do anything but pray for you…meaning, you
are still alive, you already have a prayer warrior in heaven.
And that is the difference between our religion and the other religion.
Although salvation is for everybody, but the other religion, they have to pass
through the long way because they don’t believe in indulgence. If you will
observe on All Soul’s Day, only Catholics go the cemetery. In other religion, if
you are dead, you are dead. But we Catholics are different. Even if our loved
ones have been dead for a long time, their memory is still fresh in our hearts
and minds so we always offer masses for them, we always pray for them, we
always visit them in the cemetery. In other religions, if you are dead, you are
dead. Period. So this is like a shopping mall. If you bought plenty, you will
pay more and so you will go to the ordinary lanes. But if you bought only
little, it means you will pay less so you can go to the express lane. And that
express lane represents the Roman Catholic Church. Meaning our
religion is the fastest way to heaven. Meaning our religion is the
shortest way to heaven. So you have to be proud to be a Catholic! You
should be proud to be a Catholic.

Q: How about drinking alcohol, what do you think?

A: Well, to drink is not a sin. Drinking becomes a sin when you get drunk
because when you are drunk, you do not know what you are saying, you do
not know what you are doing that is why you are sinning. So, it is not a sin to
drink. It is a sin to be drunk.
Q: Many denominations believe there is heaven and hell but they
don’t believe in purgatory. How can you explain purgatory as
understood by Catholics?

A: Well, Jesus said we have only two choices, either heaven or hell. But then
purgatory is part of heaven. There is really purgatory but then Jesus said
purgatory is part of heaven. It is just a cleansing area because heaven is only
for the pure. Heaven is only for those who are sinless and no one is sinless
because all of us are sinful. That is why there is really purgatory. I do not
give talks to Catholics only, I also give talks to people of other religion and
they don’t believe in purgatory. That is why I explain to them what happens.
For example, the nail represents sin. Just for example the nail represents sin
and then if we sin, the nail is embedded to the wall. Because the nail
represents sin, so when we commit a sin the nail is embedded to the wall.
When we confess our sin to a priest our sins are forgiven. And because our
sins are forgiven, the nail is removed from the wall. But when the nail is
removed, because it represents the sin, a hole remains. So meaning the
hole represents the damage caused by our sin and this has to be paid in
purgatory. So meaning, our sins are forgiven, but the damaged caused by
the sins we committed will have to be paid.
For example, when Pope John Paul II was shot, when he left the
hospital, the first thing he did was to go to the prison to forgive the man who
shot him. He forgave him, even embraced him, but it does not mean that
because he was forgiven he will be released from prison. No! He will still
remain in prison to pay for the punishment of his sin.

Q: Are Ghost real?

A: Well they are real. It is true we have a spirit. Actually, the souls can pray
for the living but they cannot pray for themselves. The living can pray for
themselves, they can also pray for other living persons, and they can also
pray for the souls on purgatory. And because the souls in purgatory cannot
pray for themselves that is why there are ghosts. They make us feel them
because they need our help, because they cannot pray for themselves. But
actually, the ghosts are harmless because they are just spirits. So if there is
a ghost, speak to them right away. Tell them not to scare you because if
they do, you will not pray for them and I am sure they will be scared because
that is all they need, our prayers. That is why sometimes when we dream of
relatives and friends who were already dead, it is because they need your
help. So if you dream of the dead, you have to offer masses always for them
so that they can enter heaven faster. What is beautiful here is if they enter
heaven because of you, in gratitude, they will not do anything but to pray for
you. Meaning, you are still alive and you already have a prayer warrior in
heaven. So you should be generous to them. You need to offer masses for
them to speed up their entrance to heaven. We also have a soul. That is why
if you love your body, you should also love your soul. You need to have a
balanced life. What do we do with our body? We always bathe ourselves, we
cleanse our body with perfumed soap, we brush our teeth, we feed ourselves
with vitamins, we fed ourselves with good food, and we give ourselves
delicious drinks while our body is jus temporary. When we die who will be
healthy? The earth and the worms only. But our soul is eternal. If we are in
business, and we cannot balance, it means your soul will enter hell. That is
why, if you love your body, you should also love your soul.

Q: You told us to pray to conquer ourselves. How do you pray? Can

you share us how to pray?

A: Well, when I pray I make it as if it were my last prayer. Because if I think I

will pray now, then tomorrow will pray again, the day after tomorrow I will
pray again, I will not give everything. But if you make your prayer as if it
were the last prayer, you will give everything because, Jesus said. “I need a
quality prayer not in quantity.” He does not need kilometers of prayer. What
he needs is a prayer even if it is short, as long as it comes from your heart, it
will surely reach heaven.
 Q: What is the meaning of the Divine mercy image, did Jesus
explain to you?

A: Well, Jesus explained to me the image of the Divine Mercy. At the back of
the picture, there is a door and Jesus said. “I am the door and that
nobody can enter heaven without passing through me.” Meaning, he
himself is the door to heaven. Nobody can enter heaven without passing
through Him because he is the door to heaven. And then Jesus said the white
rays represent sacramental confession which is the cleansing of our soul.
And then the red rays, Jesus said, the red rays means that He is really
present in the Eucharist. This means, the Host that we receive during
communion is not ordinary bread. It is the blood and body of our Lord and
our God. That is why we need to prepare to receive Holy Communion. We
cannot just receive and receive. And then at the bottom it is written, “Jesus, I
Trust In You.” Jesus said that it is His Signature. That is why Jesus said that if
you believe that there is God, you should also have trust in Him because
faith is lacking when there is no trust. You lack faith when you do not
trust. That is why if our trust is 80% only. He does not like it. If our trust is
only 90% only, He still does not like it. If our trust is Him is 99% only, He
does not like it. Our lord likes 100%. No less. Because Jesus said that sins of
distrust hurts Him most. Sin of not trusting Him is the sin that is most hurting
for Him. Let us take for example our friends, if they do not trust us, isn’t it
also painful? If our spouse do not trust us, isn’t it painful? How much more
for God who is our creator, who himself made us. If we do not trust him, that
is most hurting for him. That is why whatever happens to us, whatever is
wrong with us, whatever is lacking with us, we should go back to the one
who created us. Because He is the only one who can repair us, He is the only
one who can change us because he is the one who created us. So, whatever
happens to us, we should go back to him and trust Him.

Q: What is the difference between the Sacred Heart Devotion and

the Divine Mercy devotion?

A: Well the truth is after what happened to me, I thought it was the Sacred
heart who made me live again. The truth is I did not have a devotion to the
divine Mercy. I just see the Divine Mercy on TV, the 3 O’clock Prayer, but
more than that, none. But then when I was young, I have been a devotee to
the Sacred Heart. Our School in Negros is called Sacred heart Academy. My
teacher who is a nun explained to me very well that even if I was still young,
she was able to convince me to have a devotion to the Sacred Heart. I had
this devotion until I grew up, until I got married in Cebu. When I reached
Cebu, my devotion became continuous. However, the chapel is a portable
chapel. It is built beside the road during fiestas but after the fiesta it is being
dismantled, kept and then assembled again next year during fiesta again.
After, they chose me to be the President of the chapel, I told this to
Cardinal Vidal. I told him, cardinal, I was chosen by them to be the President
of the chapel so Cardinal Vidal said “congratulations”. Because before what
happened to me. I was working as an Avsecom in Mactan International
Airport and I was the contact person of the Archdiocese of Cebu in the
airport. So Cardinal Vidal and I already knew each other even before what
happened to me. so when I told cardinal that the chapel is a portable chapel
and is being erected beside the street during fiestas, that after the fiesta, it
is being dismantled, kept and assembled again the next year during fiesta
again. Cardinal said, “That is now your mission.” You need to build a
permanent chapel. That is why on that day, I talked to the members of the
chapel and told them that there is anyone who can donate a lot, I will build a
permanent chapel. So I was able to build a permanent chapel. So when this
happened to me, I thought it was the Sacred Heart who made me live. But
then Jesus explained. Jesus said “Love is the flower, mercy is the fruit”.
The Sacred heart is a flower and Divine Mercy is the fruit meaning, love and
mercy goes together. That is why no matter how angry you are with your
spouse or how angry you are with your children, because you love them, you
still have mercy and compassion on them. We are like that. No matter how
big our sin is, because the Lord loves us, that is why He still has mercy on us.
So we cannot separate the Sacred Heart and the Divine Mercy because love
and mercy goes together. You have mercy because you love them.

Q: What is the difference between Divine Mercy from the other

devotions?

A: Well, if you say devotion, in English that is commitment or a promise. In

tagalong we call it “Panata or Pangako”. So for example, just for example,
you have a devotion to the Holy Infant Jesus or Sto. Niño, it means because
you have a devotion to Sto. Niño, you have a commitment or a promise to
have a perpetual novena to Sto. Niño. Because you are the one who promise
so we can call it a devotion of man towards God. Now if you have a devotion
to Mama Mary, it means you have a commitment or a promise to have a
perpetual novena to Mama Mary or if you have a devotion to Mama Mary, it
means that you have a commitment that everyday you pray the rosary. And
because you are the one who promised, we call it a devotion of men towards
heaven. The same with all devotions to any saint whoever they are. We call it
a devotion of men towards heaven. But devotion to the Divine Mercy is
different. It is different because you can never find in the Bible that when a
person sins, he promises to go back to God. None. But it is only Jesus who
said, “Before I come as a just judge, I will open wide the doors of my
mercy. Before I come as a just judge, I will open wide the doors of
my mercy.” Meaning, before He comes back to the world, He will open first
the door of His Divine Mercy. This means this is not a devotion of people towards
God. This is a devotion of God towards the mankind. So it all depends on us if
we will accept Him. But if only everybody will take advantage of His mercy,
not a single soul can enter hell regardless of faith, regardless of religion,
because the mercy of God is for everybody. The mercy of God is or all the
people. So if you help in the propagation of the devotion to the Divine Mercy,
you are not helping me, nor you are not helping the church but you are
actually helping God Himself. You are helping God Himself because this is His
devotion, not our salvation.

Q: Among the messages that Jesus has given to you, what do you
think is the most important and most relevant to the times today?

A: Jesus said… “They can refuse or reject my mercy but I assure you
nobody, nobody can escape my justice.”

Q: It is a sin to smoke?

A: Well cigarette smoking is really a sin because you kill yourself slowly. It is
in the 10 commandments that “Thou shall not kill” So if you are smoking,
you are slowly killing yourself and it is really a sin to smoke.

Q: Did Jesus tell when He is coming so we can prepare?

A: Jesus said, “Now is the time of mercy. Now is the time to reconcile
with the Lord. Now is the time to reconcile with your family. Now is
the time to reconcile with everybody. Not tomorrow because when
tomorrow comes that is today”. So why wait for tomorrow. Our
preparation must not be tomorrow. Preparation should start now because we
do not know when our Lord will take us. There are times when people sleep,
some of them do not wake up anymore? And the question is, “Are they ready
to face the Lord?” That is why we need to prepare now, not tomorrow
because we do not know when our Lord will take us.

In fact, I have a beautiful example about preparation. One time, I went

to Europe. My flight is Cebu–Hongkong, Hongkong-London. And then
between Hongkong and London, the airplane was depressurized and
suddenly, it nosedived. All the passengers were crying and shouting.
Everybody was crying, shouting, calling the name of the Lord. It was only me
who was not crying. I observed all of them one by one.

And then seated near me was a priest and a nun. They were also
crying, calling the name of the Lord. Especially the nun, she was very
nervous and was holding a big rosary. She was moving so much that one
time our eyes met and when our eyes met, I smiled at her and when I smiled
at her, she suddenly got so mad. Her face was frowning and looked
disfigured. She was so mad that even her eyes seemed to burst because of
anger until the airplane was normalize, the nun suddenly stood up, removed
her seatbelt and then walked irritatingly towards me and when she was in
front of me, she suddenly shouted at me and said, “Why are you not praying.
Are you not afraid to die?” So I told her, “Why should I? I am already ready.”
And then I continued, “You know what you are doing? That is written in the
Bible.” Jesus said, “One day, someday, so many will be calling my
name, crying shouting, calling my name but I cannot hear them
anymore.” You know why? Because you are calling the name of the
Lord not because you love Him but because you are afraid to die.
And she could not answer. Slowly, she bent her head and she as if one pail of
ice water was being poured on her and she went back to her seat. It means
she is not ready to die.

And because she shouted at me, all the passengers looked at me and
when I looked back at them they also bent their heads meaning, they too are
not yet ready to die. What will happen if you are not ready to die? If there
are calamities, they will cry and shout and call the name of the Lord. But if a
person is already ready, he will welcome the Lord. That is why the
preparation is not tomorrow. The preparation should start now because we
do not know when our Lord will take us.

Q: If God is merciful, why does he allow suffering?

A: Well, Jesus allows suffering because suffering makes us closer to the

Lord. Because the more we suffer the more we pray. And also, suffering is
purification. Suffering is cleansing.

A few months ago, I gave a talk in and big hospital and many who
attended were cancer patients. And those who had cancer were very angry
at the Lord. They said, “Why me not only? How about the others, why are
they not sick, why is it me alone who is sick? How about them? Why don’t
they have any cancer? Why is it that it is me alone who has cancer?” So I
told them, don’t get mad at our Lord. It means the Lord loves you very much.
Look at others, they are not even sick and are very healthy, always laughing
but suddenly they meet an accident and died and the question is … are they
ready to face the Lord? It means, the lord loves you very much very much. At
least he gave You a chance to clean up yourselves so when the right time
comes, you are ready to enter heaven. When the right time comes, you are
very ready to face the Lord. So it means, suffering is a grace. Suffering is a
grace.

In fact, one time I also complained to the lord God. I asked Him, Do I
need to suffer also? Everyday, I sacrifice to propagate Your Divine Mercy but
why is it that I also have suffering? And then Jesus said, “Without suffering
there is no crown of glory.” It means no one is exempted of suffering. We
only have different kinds of suffering.

Q: I pray the rosary everyday, I pray the chaplet everyday, I attend

mass everyday, but why is my family far away from the Lord, even if
I force them still they refuse.

A: Somebody asked me that question and I asked Jesus and Jesus said,
“Don’t force them. Do not force them because you cannot change a
person. Only God can change a person and only prayers can move
God. Only prayers can move God.” That is why Jesus said, “You have to
multiply your prayers for the sinners because the sinners do not
pray for themselves anymore and if you stop praying for them it is
as if you are throwing them to fire. It is as if you are throwing them
to fire.” Our Lord said, that sinners do not pray for themselves anymore so
if we stop praying for them, it is as if we the ones who threw them to hell.
And then Jesus promised, ”But if you continue praying for that person,
before that person dies, he will go back to the Lord.” So it means our
motto is, “Not Retreat, No Surrender.” Meaning we have to continue our
prayers especially for our beloved ones because if we stop, we lose.

Q: Many people have bondages. Do you have any idea or advice how
to cut them off from these bondages?

A: Well, one time, a Divine Mercy devotee from Zamboanga went to Cebu.
She went to our house and said, “Brother, can you teach us how to cut
bondage? Because their grandmother has been in and out of the hospital
until the hospital doesn’t want to accept her anymore. She is now in the
house instead. He said their wealth is almost finished. They sold their
belongings just to have money to spend for their grandmother until the
hospital doesn’t want to accept them anymore. Now she is just in the house
and in the house she has been fighting for her life for more than 3 months
but sill she would not die. Her whole body is already full of worms but still
she would not die. One of her arms was raised up but then nobody among
her children and grandchildren wants to receive the bondage because they
do not want the bondage to be transferred to them by their grandmother.
They do not want it to be transferred to them that is why she would not die
and has been fighting for her life for 3 months.

So she told me Brother, please help us how to cut the bondage. So I said, let
us wait for the 3 o’clock and let us ask the Lord what we should do. After
praying, I just learned from the Lord to pray the chaplet 7 – 7 to cut the
bondage. So meaning we have to pray the chaplet 7 times in a day. Meaning
we start at 7 o’clock in the morning, and end at 7 o’clock in the evening. So
every 2 hours, 7,9,11,1,3,5,7 for 7 days. So I told her to go back to
Zamboanga to pray the chaplet 7-7 for their grandmother.
And because almost all the relatives were already there. I told her to
let all the relatives join together to pray the 7-7. So on the 7th day, they told
me, on the 7th day, at 7 o’clock in the evening, the last chaplet, they told me
that while they were praying the last chaplet on the 7 th day, there was
suddenly a glow in the whole body of their grandmother. The glow was
turning and it was very bright and the hand slowly went down. And when it
went down, the glow transferred to her face. The face of their grandmother
became very bright. Before, when she was suffering, the struggle was very
hard but when the face of their grandmother glowed, she smiled and slowly
closed her eyes and died. So meaning the bondage was cut. You have to
pray the chaplet 7-7 to cut the bondage.

*Bondages include womanizing, alcoholism and many more.

Q: What is your advice regarding the healing of a family tree?

A: Well, the best way to heal a family tree is through the mass. All our
ancestors who died must enter heaven. We have a saying that the sin of our
ancestors will transfer up to the 4th generation. So to cut the sin, we need to
help them enter heaven because when they enter heaven what win will you
inherit? None! So we should not be stingy with them. We always offer
masses for them. I have observed that we who are living remember to offer
masses only 4 times a year… for the birthday of the dead, anniversary of the
dead, All Souls ’ Day and fiesta of our place. It is important that we always
offer masses for them so that they can enter heaven faster. When they enter
heaven, there is no more sin to inherit. So the best way to heal a family tree,
is we must always offer masses for them. And if they enter heaven, they will
not do anything in heaven but o pray for you because you are the one
responsible in helping them enter heaven.

Q: what is the significance of the 3 o’clock prayer in the morning

because there are so many answered prayers at 3 o’clock in the
morning. It is written in the 3 o’clock prayer that he died at 3
o’clock in the afternoon. Please explain.

A: Well at 3 o’clock in the morning, that is the time of His resurrection. In

fact, it is in the record that during the resurrection, Jesus met with Mama
Mary at 4 o’clock in the morning. Also on record, he was made captive at 3
o’clock in the morning. He died at 3 o’clock in the afternoon and He
resurrected after 3 days also at 3 o’clock in the morning. That is why Jesus
sometimes wake us up at 3 o’clock in the morning. It is because He wanted
you to pray. He did not wake you up without a purpose. He woke you up
because he knows there are many answered prayers at 3 o’clock in the
morning.

Q: You mentioned about the Blessed Mother. Did Jesus say anything
to you about His mother’s Rosary?

A: Well, when I conversed with Jesus, He told me about the Rosary. He said,
the Joyful mystery is connected to His Second coming. He said, the Sorrowful
Mystery is what is happening now in the world because we are suffering and
then the Glorious Mystery is for heaven. Because in the first Joyful Mystery,
the Annunciation is the time when Mama Mary said yes because if
she did not say yes, we do not have salvation. Without her saying yes,
we do not have salvation. And then in the joyful mystery, that time, it was
Mama Mary who said yes but now, it is our time to say yes to the Lord. The
second Joyful mystery is the Visitation. Meaning whatever we know about the
Lord, we should visit other people and spread to them how merciful our God
is. And in the third joyful Mystery, is the birth of Jesus. Here he became man
that is why we need to have changes in our lives and allow Jesus to enter our
life. And the fourth joyful Mystery is the Presentation, meaning we have to
present Jesus to the heart of the people. We need to introduce Him to the
hearts of the people so that when He comes back in the 5th mystery, the
finding of Jesus in the Temple, in His coming back, he will find out that He is
inside the hearts of people because He is really coming gloriously.

Q: Have you had any encounter with the evil of the other side?
A: Yes. We have a saying, that the closer you are to the Lord, the more the
other side will pull you to their side. Our Lord appeared to me through a
dream, the other side appeared to me but not through a dream, I was awake.
In fact, I told you that you cannot describe the Lord because He is
everything. The same with the other side. You cannot totally describe the
evil because he is everything, however they are opposite in the beauty of the
lord and the ugliness of the other side. In fact, he offered me that if only I will
stop my mission, he offered to make me one of the richest men in the world
and then I will be the most popular in the whole world and he will give me
the women that I like. But then, I told him, I do not need temporary
happiness. I like happiness that is eternal. That is why I did not accept his
offer.

Q: You are propagating God’s Divine Mercy and people think that
God is really very very merciful so that people continue to do many
bad things in their life hoping that God will be merciful in the end.
What can you advise to these people?

A: Well Jesus one time, when I had a conversation with him said…”Sinners
should understand that mercy is only possible while you are still
alive on earth. Justice takes over when you are dead.” Meaning, if we
are still alive, mercy of God is still available but when we are dead, justice
takes over.

Q: Do you heal?

A: I am not a healer. Jesus is the healer that is why I am forbidden to pray

over or to lay hands. Cardinal Vidal advised me that after my talk, we will
have a veneration to the image of the Divine Mercy so that we will ask
directly from the Lord for our healing. Not through me. So if a healing
happens through veneration, it is Jesus who healed you. Not me.

Q: Please describe how Jesus looks like?

A: Well from among the many pictures of our Lord, there are similarities but
not totally because actually if you are in front of the Lord, you cannot just
totally describe your feeling, you cannot just totally describe your
satisfaction, you cannot just totally describe your happiness because he is
everything. But to what I saw, He is taller than me, slim and then if you look
at Him at a distance, you can say that His hair is blonde. It is because He has
a gold aura and because of the reflection of the aura, you can say that his
hair is blonde. But if He is right in front of you, His hair is black, straight, but
wavy, long and really very good looking. His eyes are blue, His skin is
pinkish, he has a pointed nose, very red lips, white and perfect teeth. He also
has a beard and if He smiles, you will see His dimples. If he smiles, you will
see His dimples. And He is more polite than me, because every conversation,
it is always accompanied by please. That is why I said, how humble our Lord
is.

Q: What can you say about people who refuse to believe in God’s
mercy?

A: Well Jesus said, by refusing his mercy, you are refusing to believe that He
is a God. So that is the sin that He cannot forgive. He said, all sins can be
forgiven except when you do not believe that you can be forgiven for your
sins because Jesus said by refusing His mercy, you are also refusing to
believe that he is God.

Q: Some denominations do not believe in the Blessed Mother. They

even break or destroy her images. What can you say about this?

A: One time I gave a talk to the Protestants. After my talk, they said, Brother
Stanley, is it necessary to be a baptized Catholic if we make a devotion to
the Divine Mercy? I told them, “no, just be a good Protestant. Just be a good
Protestant.” And then they said. “What do you mean to be a good
Protestant?” So I said…”a good Protestant does not quarrel with the Mother
of God because if you quarrel, you are bad. If you don’t quarrel, you are
good.” Isn’t it if you quarrel with your neighbor always, you are bad, but if
you do not quarrel with your neighbor, you are good? How much more with
the Mother of God!

Q: How do you demonstrate complete trust in Jesus?

A: Well you have to trust blindly.

 The Divine Mercy Novena Jesus asked that the
Feast of the Divine
Mercy be preceded by
a Novena to the
Divine Mercy which
would begin on Good
Friday. He gave St.
Faustina an intention
to pray for on each
day of the Novena,
saving for the last day
the most difficult
intention of all, the
lukewarm and
indifferent of whom
He said:

"These souls cause

Me more suffering
than any others; it
was from such souls
that My soul felt the
most revulsion in the
Garden of Olives. It
was on their account
that I said: 'My Father,
if it is possible, let this
cup pass Me by.' The
last hope of salvation
for them is to flee to
My Mercy."

In her diary, St.

Faustina wrote that
Jesus told her:

"On each day of the

novena you will bring
to My heart a different
group of souls and
you will immerse
them in this ocean of
My mercy ... On each
day you will beg My
Father, on the
strength of My
passion, for the
graces for these
souls."

The different souls

prayed for on each
day of the novena
are:

First Day
"Today bring to Me all mankind, especially all sinners,
and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. In this way you will
console Me in the bitter grief into which the loss of souls plunges
Me."

Most Merciful Jesus, whose very nature it is to have compassion on us and to

forgive us, do not look upon our sins but upon our trust which we place in
Your infinite goodness. Receive us all into the abode of Your Most
Compassionate Heart, and never let us escape from It. We beg this of You by
Your love which unites You to the Father and the Holy Spirit.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon all mankind and especially upon
poor sinners, all enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. For the
sake of His sorrowful Passion show us Your mercy, that we may praise the
omnipotence of Your mercy for ever and ever. Amen.

Second Day
"Today bring to Me the Souls of Priests and Religious,

and immerse them in My unfathomable mercy. It was they who gave

me strength to endure My bitter Passion. Through them as through
channels My mercy flows out upon mankind."

Most Merciful Jesus, from whom comes all that is good, increase Your grace
in men and women consecrated to Your service,* that they may perform
worthy works of mercy; and that all who see them may glorify the Father of
Mercy who is in heaven.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the company of chosen ones in
Your vineyard -- upon the souls of priests and religious; and endow them with
the strength of Your blessing. For the love of the Heart of Your Son in which
they are enfolded, impart to them Your power and light, that they may be
able to guide others in the way of salvation and with one voice sing praise to
Your boundless mercy for ages without end. Amen.

* In the original text, Saint Faustina uses the pronoun "us" since she was
offering this prayer as a consecrated religious sister. The wording adapted
here is intended to make the prayer suitable for universal use.

Third Day
"Today bring to Me all Devout and Faithful Souls,

and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. These souls brought

me consolation on the Way of the Cross. They were a drop of
consolation in the midst of an ocean of bitterness."

Most Merciful Jesus, from the treasury of Your mercy, You impart Your graces
in great abundance to each and all. Receive us into the abode of Your Most
Compassionate Heart and never let us escape from It. We beg this grace of
You by that most wondrous love for the heavenly Father with which Your
Heart burns so fiercely.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon faithful souls, as upon the
inheritance of Your Son. For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, grant them
Your blessing and surround them with Your constant protection. Thus may
they never fail in love or lose the treasure of the holy faith, but rather, with
all the hosts of Angels and Saints, may they glorify Your boundless mercy for
endless ages. Amen.
Fourth Day
"Today bring to Me those who do not believe in God and those who do not
know Me,

I was thinking also of them during My bitter Passion, and their

future zeal comforted My Heart. Immerse them in the ocean of My
mercy."

Most compassionate Jesus, You are the Light of the whole world. Receive into
the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who do not
believe in God and of those who as yet do not know You. Let the rays of Your
grace enlighten them that they, too, together with us, may extol Your
wonderful mercy; and do not let them escape from the abode which is Your
Most Compassionate Heart.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who do not
believe in You, and of those who as yet do not know You, but who are
enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Draw them to the light of
the Gospel. These souls do not know what great happiness it is to love You.
Grant that they, too, may extol the generosity of Your mercy for endless
ages. Amen.

*Our Lord's original words here were "the pagans." Since the pontificate of
Pope John XXIII, the Church has seen fit to replace this term with clearer and
more appropriate terminology.

Fifth Day
"Today bring to Me the Souls of those who have separated themselves from
My Church*,

and immerse them in the ocean of My mercy. During My bitter

Passion they tore at My Body and Heart, that is, My Church. As they
return to unity with the Church My wounds heal and in this way they
alleviate My Passion."

Most Merciful Jesus, Goodness Itself, You do not refuse light to those who
seek it of You. Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the
souls of those who have separated themselves from Your Church. Draw them
by Your light into the unity of the Church, and do not let them escape from
the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart; but bring it about that they,
too, come to glorify the generosity of Your mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls of those who have
separated themselves from Your Son's Church, who have squandered Your
blessings and misused Your graces by obstinately persisting in their errors.
Do not look upon their errors, but upon the love of Your own Son and upon
His bitter Passion, which He underwent for their sake, since they, too, are
enclosed in His Most Compassionate Heart. Bring it about that they also may
glorify Your great mercy for endless ages. Amen.

*Our Lord's original words here were "heretics and schismatics," since He
spoke to Saint Faustina within the context of her times. As of the Second
Vatican Council, Church authorities have seen fit not to use those
designations in accordance with the explanation given in the Council's
Decree on Ecumenism (n.3). Every pope since the Council has reaffirmed
that usage. Saint Faustina herself, her heart always in harmony with the
mind of the Church, most certainly would have agreed. When at one time,
because of the decisions of her superiors and father confessor, she was not
able to execute Our Lord's inspirations and orders, she declared: "I will follow
Your will insofar as You will permit me to do so through Your representative.
O my Jesus " I give priority to the voice of the Church over the voice with
which You speak to me" (497). The Lord confirmed her action and praised
her for it.
Sixth Day
Today bring to Me the Meek and Humble Souls and the Souls of Little
Children,

and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble

My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them
as earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon
them whole torrents of grace. I favor humble souls with My
confidence.

Most Merciful Jesus, You yourself have said, "Learn from Me for I am meek
and humble of heart." Receive into the abode of Your Most Compassionate
Heart all meek and humble souls and the souls of little children. These souls
send all heaven into ecstasy and they are the heavenly Father's favorites.
They are a sweet-smelling bouquet before the throne of God; God Himself
takes delight in their fragrance. These souls have a permanent abode in Your
Most Compassionate Heart, O Jesus, and they unceasingly sing out a hymn of
love and mercy.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon meek souls, upon humble souls,
and upon little children who are enfolded in the abode which is the Most
Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls bear the closest resemblance to
Your Son. Their fragrance rises from the earth and reaches Your very throne.
Father of mercy and of all goodness, I beg You by the love You bear these
souls and by the delight You take in them: Bless the whole world, that all
souls together may sing out the praises of Your mercy for endless ages.
Amen.

Seventh Day
Today bring to Me the Souls who especially venerate and glorify My Mercy*,

and immerse them in My mercy. These souls sorrowed most over my

Passion and entered most deeply into My spirit. They are living
images of My Compassionate Heart. These souls will shine with a
special brightness in the next life. Not one of them will go into the
fire of hell. I shall particularly defend each one of them at the hour
of death.

Most Merciful Jesus, whose Heart is Love Itself, receive into the abode of Your
Most Compassionate Heart the souls of those who particularly extol and
venerate the greatness of Your mercy. These souls are mighty with the very
power of God Himself. In the midst of all afflictions and adversities they go
forward, confident of Your mercy; and united to You, O Jesus, they carry all
mankind on their shoulders. These souls will not be judged severely, but Your
mercy will embrace them as they depart from this life.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls who glorify and
venerate Your greatest attribute, that of Your fathomless mercy, and who are
enclosed in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. These souls are a living
Gospel; their hands are full of deeds of mercy, and their hearts, overflowing
with joy, sing a canticle of mercy to You, O Most High! I beg You O God:

Show them Your mercy according to the hope and trust they have placed in
You. Let there be accomplished in them the promise of Jesus, who said to
them that during their life, but especially at the hour of death, the souls who
will venerate this fathomless mercy of His, He, Himself, will defend as His
glory. Amen.

*The text leads one to conclude that in the first prayer directed to Jesus, Who
is the Redeemer, it is "victim" souls and contemplatives that are being
prayed for; those persons, that is, that voluntarily offered themselves to God
for the salvation of their neighbor (see Col 1:24; 2 Cor 4:12). This explains
their close union with the Savior and the extraordinary efficacy that their
invisible activity has for others. In the second prayer, directed to the Father
from whom comes "every worthwhile gift and every genuine benefit,"we
recommend the "active" souls, who promote devotion to The Divine Mercy
and exercise with it all the other works that lend themselves to the spiritual
and material uplifting of their brethren.

Eighth Day
"Today bring to Me the Souls who are in the prison of Purgatory,

and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. Let the torrents of My

Blood cool down their scorching flames. All these souls are greatly
loved by Me. They are making retribution to My justice. It is in your
power to bring them relief. Draw all the indulgences from the
treasury of My Church and offer them on their behalf. Oh, if you only
knew the torments they suffer, you would continually offer for them
the alms of the spirit and pay off their debt to My justice."

Most Merciful Jesus, You Yourself have said that You desire mercy; so I bring
into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart the souls in Purgatory,
souls who are very dear to You, and yet, who must make retribution to Your
justice. May the streams of Blood and Water which gushed forth from Your
Heart put out the flames of Purgatory, that there, too, the power of Your
mercy may be celebrated.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon the souls suffering in Purgatory,
who are enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. I beg You, by
the sorrowful Passion of Jesus Your Son, and by all the bitterness with which
His most sacred Soul was flooded: Manifest Your mercy to the souls who are
under Your just scrutiny. Look upon them in no other way but only through
the Wounds of Jesus, Your dearly beloved Son; for we firmly believe that
there is no limit to Your goodness and compassion. Amen.

Ninth Day
"Today bring to Me the Souls who have become Lukewarm,

and immerse them in the abyss of My mercy. These souls wound My

Heart most painfully. My soul suffered the most dreadful loathing in
the Garden of Olives because of lukewarm souls. They were the
reason I cried out: 'Father, take this cup away from Me, if it be Your
will.' For them, the last hope of salvation is to run to My mercy."

Most compassionate Jesus, You are Compassion Itself. I bring lukewarm souls
into the abode of Your Most Compassionate Heart. In this fire of Your pure
love, let these tepid souls who, like corpses, filled You with such deep
loathing, be once again set aflame. O Most Compassionate Jesus, exercise
the omnipotence of Your mercy and draw them into the very ardor of Your
love, and bestow upon them the gift of holy love, for nothing is beyond Your
power.

Eternal Father, turn Your merciful gaze upon lukewarm souls who are
nonetheless enfolded in the Most Compassionate Heart of Jesus. Father of
Mercy, I beg You by the bitter Passion of Your Son and by His three-hour
agony on the Cross: Let them, too, glorify the abyss of Your mercy. Amen.
