SAINT AUGUSTINE

“So many people are protective in your time of day.  I am Saint Augustine, and I come to say: ‘It is necessary to be firm.  It is necessary to be straight.  It is necessary to walk in constant truth in your day, for you live in a time worse than Sodom and Gomorrah.  You live in a time of great heresy.  You live in a time where children of all ages feel they have the right.’

And now, let Me say from the Heavens Where I am, ‘What do you determine is your right?’ The right to live?  God gave it to you.  The right to do with it what you will?  God gave it to you.  The right to work?  God gave it to you.  The right to feed yourself?  God gave it to you.  The right to walk where you will?  God gave it to you.  The right to teach or to hold to yourself what you know?  God gave it to you.  The right to absorb knowledge or wisdom?  There is a difference, you know.  God gave it to you; but, in reality, it goes back to a Commandment.  God gave it to you.

The Commandment, as you all know, is the Fourth: Honor Thy Father And Thy Mother. God gave it to you.  And how many people in the world, no matter what age they are, remember this Commandment?  Oh, no.  There are many ages walking now who have forgotten this Commandment.  Well, let Me say, ‘It first belongs to The Father of all men, The Father Who created you and the Commandment, The Mother Whom He gave, and then the earthly ones come next, the ones you know so best.’

Ask yourself today:  Did you honor The Father and The Mother?  Did you honor in the correct way, or did you become so willful, so righteous, that you felt that you had rights your own way?  And now I say to you, ‘The right that you truly have and that you stand in is this:  to honor The Father and The Mother; Heavenly first, then earthly, in God’s Way.’ So be it.”
