~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Maria Valtorta is the best author of Christian literature since St. John the Evangelist. Not only by her remarkable literary talent, but by Divine inspiration. Her monumental masterpiece, POEM OF THE MAN-GOD, reads like a 5th Gospel (cautiously approved by Pope Pius XII) in perfect harmony with the Four Canonical Gospels. However, Catholics are only required to believe the Public Revelation of The Bible & Tradition, and therefor, Catholics may believe Maria's writings with their human faith, but are not forced to consider her writings as part of Divine Catholic Faith, until of course, the Church publicly says so. New readers should be skeptical of authors making such claims, but as they read their anxiety is relieved as they see that each page reinforces their Christian Catholic faith in such a wonderful way, that the vast majority of readers believe her work is a precious gift from Heaven in our unsettling times. She writes as if her pen is a camera, drawing readers into each scene as if being there. Some are pitifully unable to consider that God is so good as to give us this brilliant treasure in our age, so they initially view Maria's work as a literary product having the stylistic form of a revelation. After reading many pages, it must cross th minds that a woman (or man) could not write these unique pages with simply her imagination.
The written testimony of Archbishop George Pearce indicates that an open mind will find Maria's work inspired by the Holy Spirit. The written testimony of Bishop Roman Danylak, S.T.L., J.U.D., confirms Pius XII's directive that it is good pasturage for the faithful. As bishops multiply in their endorsement of Maria's writings, it is clear that faith in her writings is more of divine rather than simply human origin. Archbishop Soosa Pakiam M. of Trivandrum, India, granted an Imprimatur for the Malayalam translation of POEM OF THE MAN-GOD in 1992. Archbishop Alfonso Carinci, Secretary of the Vatican Curia's Congregation for the Sacred Rites, endorsed Maria's Life of Jesus in 1946. That is 5 successors of the Apostles, including a Pope, that have endorsed Maria Valtorta's work with their charism of Magisterial teaching authority. "Guided by the Magisterium of the Church, the sensus fidelium knows how to discern and welcome in these revelations whatever constitutes an authentic call of Christ or His saints to the Church." Catechism of the Catholic Church #67, Revised 1997.
St John of the Cross, a Doctor of the Church, said to distrust all "private revelation", but like light coming through a window, it will have the good effect, God desires, even if you mistrust it. Jesus said to Maria: "You know more than the Great John (the Apostle). O My worshipping crucified one, this is what I wanted to give you by virtue of your long suffering: perfect, complete knowledge of Us, as Saints and Doctors (of the Church) did not possess it." Although Maria's writings are prophetic revelation, there are no "new" doctrines different from the tradition of the Roman Catholic Church. On several pages, Jesus appeals for the unity of all Christians under the pope. Maria's writings, properly used, can be a spur to ecumenical unity. The term "private revelation" is a non-scriptural term. The Bible only speaks of true or false prophecy.
St John of the Cross' advice is superceded by Pope Pius XII who privately (no cardinal as witness) said: "Publish this work (Il Poema dell'Uomo-Dio) as it is; there is no need to say whether it is of supernatural origin, who reads it will understand." Feb. 26, 1948. Pius XII's cautious approval of the work fits in with Jesus' plan, Who told Maria that He wanted the work to spread like leaven throughout the Church, and that He did not want an open & noisy diffusion of it at that time even to the point of concealing her name as the author while she was alive.
Pope Benedict XVI (like Pius XII) has to be cautious in declaring her work to be "inspired" because it would triple the size of the Bible, if all her writings (the parts that are dictations) are included: AZARIAH, LESSONS ON ST. PAUL'S EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS, POEM OF THE MAN-GOD (5 volumes), NOTEBOOKS 1943, NOTEBOOKS 1944, and NOTEBOOKS 1945-1950.
Requesting her own funeral arrangements, Maria wanted the phrase: "I have finished with suffering, but I will go on loving" to be printed in her memory. Ecclesiastical authority permitted this inscription upon her tomb: "DIVINARUM RERUM SCPRIPTRIX" (Writer of Divine Things), a thinly veiled reference to her divinely inspired writings, the likeness of which has not been seen since Saint John the Great Evangelist and Revelator, hence Jesus' nickname for her as "Little John", and even "The New John".
Latest new book by Maria Valtorta: Lessons on the Epistle of St. Paul to the Romans. (320 pages, softcover)
The Most Holy Spirit, the Author, says: "...confines are placed on the knowledge of the ecstacy of Paradise and infernal anguish (Hell). Because if you were to know all that it is, you would either die out of love or horror." pp. 60-61
Pope Benedict XVI has proclaimed June 28, 2008, to June 29, 2009 as the Year of St. Paul. St Paul was not made an Apostle by men, and he was not taught the Gospel by men (Galatians 1:1, 1:11-12). He received his apostleship and the Gospel directly from Jesus. His "private revelations" now make up one third of the New Testament and are accepted by all Christians as the Word of God.

Walk with Jesus along the roads,
hear Him teach the crowds, instruct His disciples; and perform healing miracles in this inspired narration of the Gospel.
Maria Valtorta, a prophet for our time, had mystical visions of 98% of the Four Canonical Gospels, plus much more (4,000 pages) not included in those Gospels. Her prophetic/mystical writings comprise the greatest revelation of Jesus Christ since the first century.
"There were many other things that Jesus did; if all were written down, the world itself, I suppose, would not hold all the books that would have to be written." John 21:25
"In the Church, God has given the first place to apostles, the second to prophets..." I Cor. 12:28
"And prophets, two or three, let them speak, and let the others discern..." I Cor. 14:29-30
"To Him the gatekeeper* opens; the sheep hear His voice, and He calls His own sheep by name and leads them out. When He has brought out all His own, He goes before them, and the sheep follow Him, for they know His voice." John 10:3-4 *Gatekeepers are Pastors (priests and ministers of the Word).
"I have been found by those who did not seek Me; I have shown Myself to those who did not ask for Me." Romans 10:20, Isaiah 65:1

Written by Maria Valtorta (1897-1961), the best author of Christian literature since Saint John the Evangelist and Revelator, hence the name Jesus gave her: "Little John". However, Maria wrote a "lot" rather than a "little"---over 15,000 handwritten pages of such sublime spiritual quality that they can only be compared with the Bible itself.

Last Supper by Carl Bloch
seating arrangement: | Simon Peter John JESUS James Andrew James of Alpheus
Bartholomew Jude Matthew Judas Thomas Philip
"It is Passover evening! We have never had such a worthy display for the consumption of the lamb. So let us consume the supper in the spirit of peace. I see that I have upset you considerably with My instructions of these last evenings. But, see? I have finished! Now I will not upset you any more. Not everything has been said of what refers to Me, but only the essential part. The rest....you will understand later. You will be told... Yes. There will come Who will tell you!"[...] Jesus sits down. He does not lie down. He sits as we do. And He says: "Now that the old rite has been accomplished, I will celebrate the new one. I have promised you a miracle of love. It is time to work it. That is why I have longed for this Passover. From now on this is the Victim that will be consumed in a perpetual rite of love. My beloved friends, I have loved you throughout the whole life of the Earth. I have loved you for the whole eternity, My children. And I want to love you till the end. There is nothing greater than this. Bear that in mind. I am going away. But we shall remain for ever united through the miracle that I will now work." Chapter 598 of Vol. 5.
Prologue to the Passion. " And now come. Although this evening you are like one who is about to breathe his last, come, so that I may lead you towards My sufferings. Long is the way we shall have to cover together, because I was not spared any sorrow: neither the pain of the flesh, nor the grief of the mind, of the heart, of the spirit. I tasted all of them, I fed on all of them, I quenched My thirst with all of them, to the extent that I died of them. If you laid your lips on Mine, you would taste the bitterness that they still retain of so much sorrow. If you could see My Human nature in its appearance, which is now refulgent, you would see that that refulgence emanates from the countless wounds that like a garment of living purple covered My limbs, lacerated, exsanguinated, beaten, pierced for your sake. My Human nature is now refulgent. But one day it was like that of a leper, so fiercely it had been struck and humliated. The Man-God, Who had in Himself the perfection of physical handsomeness, being the Son of God and of the Immaculate Woman, to those who cast loving, curious, or scornful, or evil glances at Him, seemed a "worm", as David says, the scorn of mankind, the jest of people (Psalm 22:6)... ".... "Although you are in agony, follow Me. As I am the Merciful One, I shall be able to put also the scented honey of more serene contemplations before your lips, poisoned by My sorrow. But you must still prefer these ones, smeared with blood, because it is through them that you have the Life, and you will be able to take the Life to other people. Kiss My bleeding hand and be vigilant when meditating on Me, the Redeemer." Vol. 5, pages 520 & 522

On Feb. 26, 1948, Pius XII said: "Publish this work as it is. There is no need to give an opinion about its origin, whether it be extraordinary or not. Who reads it will understand" *

Blessed Gabriel Allegra, OFM.
A Scripture scholar of the 20th Century, whose cause for canonization was begun by a bishop in Hong Kong within 8 years of Fr. Allegra's death. A St. Jerome for our time, he was the first to translate the entire Bible into Chinese. He was an active advocate of the writings of Maria Valtorta. He was declared "Venerable" on Dec. 15, 1994. On April 23, 2002, in Rome and in the presence of Pope John Paul II, the decree was promulgated naming Gabriel Allegra as "Blessed". Fr. Allegra is the only scripture scholar beatified by John Paul II. Dec.26, 2007 is the 100th anniversary of Fr. Allegra's birth in Sicily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

****************************************
His Holiness Pope Benedict has made the Latin Mass of 1962 more widely available since Sep. 14, 2007. An anxiety felt by many Catholics since the Novus Ordo is seeing the priest turning his back on the tabernacle to face the people. On June 3rd, 1944, Maria Valtorta had a vision of St. Peter (some time after the first Pentecost) celebrating the Eucharist OVER a precious chest serving as a tabernacle, thus facing the tabernacle, and also facing the people at the same time. Problem solved--both priest & people are facing the tabernacle containing the reserved Eucharist, as they worship at Mass during the new Eucharistic Miracle!

Saint Padre Pio more than "advised" a spiritual daughter, Elisa Lucchi, to read Valtorta's writings. "I don't advise you to---I order you to." From a letter of Rosi Giordani, Jan. 7, 1989, San Giovanni Rotondo.
Bishop Roman Danylak, S.T.L., J.U.D., wrote that Cardinal Ratzinger (now Pope Benedict XVI) has affirmed in private letters that there are no moral or doctrinal errors in Maria Valtorta's POEM OF THE MAN-GOD. Five Cardinals, Telesphore Toppo of India, Luis Aponte Martinez of Puerto Rico, Varkey Vithayathil of India, Riccardo Vidal of the Philippines and Ernesto Corripio y Ahumada of Mexico have petitioned prelates worldwide to ask Pope Benedict to proclaim Mary as "the Spiritual Mother of All Humanity, the Co-redemptrix with Jesus the Redeemer, Mediatirx of all Graces with Jesus the One Mediator, and Advocate with Jesus Christ on behalf of the human race.... It is of great importance (...) that people of other religious traditions receive the clarification on the highest level of authentic doctrinal certainty that we can provide, that the Catholic Church essentially disiniguishes between the sole role of Jesus Christ, divine and human Redeemer of the world, and the unique though secondary and dependent human participation of the Mother of Christ in the great work of Redemption." These teachings about Jesus and Mary are abundantly clear in the writings of Maria Valtorta.

Dismemberment abortion demonstrated--warning--not for children to view
Obama, partially-brained, but smarter than Hillary, exhibiting political cowardice (PC) in refusing to defend the defenseless unborn, wants decriminalizaton of partial birth infanticide (now illegal), where the cowardly greedy, ethically bankrupt abortionist, using a suction machine, extracts the brains of a baby while 90% outside the mother. Will Americans trust that unconscionable candidate in having the nuclear trigger in his hands, having shown such an extreme, depraved disregard for innocent black (and brown, red, yellow, and white) human life, completely outside the mainstream of the vast majority of Americans?
Obama also cemented his fascist anti-life position by leading the oppositition to the Illinois Born Alive Infants Protection Law. Thank Heaven this Illinois bill became law despite the weak and foolish opposition of Obama, who obviously needed the abortion blood money donations to support his Senate run and pursuit of the White House. Even Senators Clinton and Kennedy, well known abortion supporters, opposed Obama on this same type of law which is also now a federal law signed by Pres. Bush on 8/5/2002.
Does the presumptive Republican candidate know that the oil companies do not want it known that there is enough oil in Northern Alaska for the next 100 years, and that it is not only immoral for the American military to be sent into a meat grinder to kill and die for Iraq's oil, but that it only enriches those who make huge profits from the war?
God has blessed America. Now is the time for America to bless God and end legalized abortion, and stop killing and dying for oil.
America must defend life, without exception, without apology, and without compromise.

"RADIO MARIA in Italy has been presenting the works of Maria Valtorta for many years. Their nation-wide listening public in Italy is around 3 million strong, and both Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict have made very public their support, appeciation and encouragement for this excellent and punctiliously faithful Catholic radio station. There are many cardinals and bishops who participate on a regular basis, and this certainly would not happen if there were even just a hint of something controversial in any of the many program offerings. The founder and president of the radio station is Padre (Father) Livio Fanzaga. He himself was once skeptical about the works of Maria Valtorta--I don't know what it was though that convinced him. Anyhow, RADIO MARIA is pretty much all over the globe now--and in the course of some 25 years, the Vatican and two popes have found nothing at all to criticize about the many programs that have been dovoted to the works of Maria Valtorta. RADIO MARIA is tremendously influential among the faithful, and for this reason, the Vatican for sure keeps a close eye--and attentive ear--on the radio's programming. But it must be said that even in the Vatican, RADIO MARIA is as popular and well-loved as in any other place in Italy..." Catherine Zeppa Di Matteo of Latisana (UD), Italy.
Jesus speaks of Mary's suffering during His burial and after.
"And the torture continued with periodic attacks until dawn on Sunday. In My Passion I had only one temptation. But the Mother, the Woman, expiated on behalf of woman, guilty, several times, of every evil. And Satan behaved mercilessly with infinite cruelty towards the Conqueress.
Mary had defeated him. The most atrocious temptation for Mary. Temptation against the flesh of the Mother. Temptation against the heart of the Mother. Temptation against the spirit of the Mother. The world thinks that the Redemption ended with My last breath. No, it did not. The Mother completed it by adding Her treble torture to redeeem the treble concupiscence, struggling for three days against Satan, who wanted to induce Her to deny My word and not to believe in My Resurrection. Mary was the only one who continued to believe. She is great and blessed also because of that. A torture corresponding to My torture at Gethsemane. The world will not understand this page. But "those who are in the world without being of the world" will understand it and they will have an increased love for the Sorrowful Mother. That is why I gave it. Go in peace with Our blessing." POEM OF THE MAN-GOD, Volume 5, pp. 637-638.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Will all this be understood by modern society, to which I grant this knowledge of Myself to strengthen it against the more and more powerful attacks of Satan and the world? Also nowadays, as twenty centuries ago, those to whom I reveal Myself will contradict one another. Once again I am the sign that is rejected. But not with regard to Myself, but with what I stir up in them. Good people, those of good will, will have the good reactions of the shepherds and of humble people. The others will react in a wicked manner, like the scribes, the Pharisees, the Sadducees and priests of those days. One gives what one has. A good person who comes in touch with wicked people provokes a surge of greater wickedness in them. And judgement will be passed on men as it was done on Good Friday, according to how they have judged, accepted and followed the Master, Who with a fresh attempt of infinite mercy has made Himself known once again.
How many people's eyes will open and how many will acknowledge Me saying: "It is He. That is why our hearts burned within us as He talked and explained the Scriptures to us?" My peace to them and to you, My little, faithful, loving John." POEM OF THE MAN-GOD, Volume 4, page 828.
If you have been blessed by reading the precious writings of Maria Valtorta, tell a friend about your joy. Don't just keep the faith---give it to people you love---its like introducing a friend to a greater knowledge of the greatest Friend---Jesus!
