Peace to all,
Good question, Cade_One, and I have always never know how to attest for Catholicism that there will be no Rapture but I never knew and did not know how to logically, faithfully say it. And Thanks to Maria, The Miriam Mystic, the logic now becomes clear to me , I believe.
When Jesus says: ”1 will come only at the last hour,” He already refutes the opinion of millenarianists who mistakenly believe that He would come back on earth before the end of the world and physically rule for one thousand years.
At times sad, at times exalting; at times soul-searching, at times comforting; Jesus’ stirring dictations to Maria Valtorta are powerful prophecies, exhortations, rebukes, and teachings to shake us up, to show us our world for what it is, to enlighten our minds about public revelation and set our hearts on fire for God.
Jesus says:
“The first time My Father, to purify the earth, sent a cleansing by water;1 the second time He sent a cleansing by blood, and by what Blood! Neither the first cleansing nor the second has availed to turn the human beings into children of God. Now the Father is weary, and to make the human race perish He lets the chastisements of hell go wild, because human beings have preferred hell to Heaven, and their Ruler, Lucifer, torments them to make them blaspheme Us so as to make them completely his children."
“Circumcise your spirits with Me a much loftier and much more perfect circumcision! Yes, it takes away from your flesh those cells in which the deadly germs tie concealed, and inserts into you the Life which | am. Yes. it strips you of animality and clothes you with Christ. Yes. it binds you as children of the guilty Adam — and you too are guilty due to original sin and your own sins Yes. it hurries you in the Baptism and Confession of Christ, and revives you as children of the Most High.” Do not part from Me. Oh! t really will bring you to the Heavens if you remain part of Me. Bat since you are not wholly ‘heaven’ and some of Earth’s mud always remains in you, here goes, I even promise to you that you will not lack the Father’s blessing even on this mire of yours, | or the Father will be able only to bless His Son; ami if you remain in Me and if you pray with Me saying ‘Our Father’ just as I have taught you,M My Power will overshadow you so much that the Father will give you both the Kingdom of the Heavens, as asked for in the first part, and the daily bread and the forgiveness of sins, as asked for in the second."
“If you remain in Me, like babies in a mother’s womb, our Father will be able to see only the garment clothing you: Me, your Redeemer, the one begetting you for Heaven, His Son; and He will shower His graces onto His Son, the object of all His delights, for Whom He created, besides all things, also forgiveness and glory, for His Son’s joy, who wants you to be forgiven and glorious.”

“I would come a second time to die, to save them from an even more atrocious death. But My Father will not allow it. My Love would allow it, but My Justice would not. He knows it would be useless. Therefore, I will come only at the last hour. But woe unto those who in that hour will see Me after choosing Lucifer as their lord! There will be no need of weapons in My angels’ hands to win the battle against the antichrists. My glance will be enough." Jesus’ stirring dictations to Maria Valtorta
Peace always,
