Saint Faustina reveals to us the second coming of Jesus

Saint Faustina reveals to us the second coming of Jesus: why should Christ put the accent in our time on a doctrine, Divine Mercy, which has been part of the patrimony of the Faith since the beginning, as well as requiring new devotional and liturgical expressions? In his revelations to Saint Faustina, Jesus answers this question, linking it to another doctrine, even at times little emphasized, that of his second coming.

In Gospel the Lord he shows us that his first coming was in humility, as a Servant, to free the world from sin. However, He promises to return in glory to judge the world on the basis of love, as he makes clear in his talks on the Kingdom in Matthew chapters 13 and 25. Among these Comings we have the end times or era of the Church, in which the ministers of the Church are reconciled with the world until the great and terrible Day of the Lord, the Day of Justice. Catechism of the Catholic Church. Only in the context of the public revelation taught by the Magisterium can we place the words of private revelation given to Sister Faustina.

“You will prepare the world for the My final coming."(Journal 429)

“Talk to the world of Mia Mercy … It is a sign for the end times. Then comes the Day of Justice. As long as there is still time, let us turn to the Source of My Mercy. " (Journal 848)

"Speak to the souls of this great Mercy of Mine, because the terrible day, the day of My justice, is near." (Diary 965).

Saint Faustina reveals to us the second coming of Jesus: she speaks to souls of this great Mercy of Mine

“I am extending the time of mercy for the sake of sinners. But woe to them if they do not recognize this time of My visit ”. (Journal 1160)

“Before the Day Justice, I send the Day of Mercy ". (Diary 1588)

“Whoever refuses to pass through the door of My mercy must pass through the door of My justice”. (Diary 1146).

In addition to these words of Our Lord, Sister Faustina gives us the Words of the Mother of Mercy, the Blessed Virgin,

"You must speak to the world of His great mercy and prepare the world for the Second Coming of Him to come, not as a merciful Salvatore, but as a just Judge. Oh how awful is that day! Determined is the day of justice, the day of divine wrath. The Angels they tremble in front of it. Speak to souls about this great mercy while it is still time to bestow mercy. (Diary 635) ".

It is clear that, like the message of Fatima, the urgency here is the urgency of the Gospel, "repent and believe". The exact moment is that of the Lord. However, it is also clear that we have reached a critical end-time phase that began with the birth of the Church. He was referring to this fact Pope John Paul II at the consecration in 1981 of the Shrine of Merciful Love in Collevalenaza, Italy, when he noted the "special task" assigned to him by God "in the current situation of man, of the Church and of the world. "In his Encyclical on the Father he exhorts us to" implore God's mercy for humanity at this time in history ... to implore it in this difficult and critical phase of the history of the Church and of the world, as we approach the end of the second Millennium ".
