Goodmorning Disciples of Jesus Christ! We are so excited to share with you more discernment from the Holy Spirit on what the Harvest is and still reconciling what St. Augustine taught about the First and Second Resurrection and the Saints that Reign with Christ during the Era of Peace. Father Chris Alar discussed in his teaching we posted several weeks ago that no one expected that the end of time, or this era of time would come in our lifetimes! So, for us who are trying to reconcile what St. Augustine taught us to what appears to be happening today, we are only going to look at what the Holy Spirit is showing us in our own personal discernment because of how the events continue to unfold right before our eyes. We should always error on the side that we are only lay Catholics searching for the Truth from God in desiring to Serve Him in these times, but never assuming that we have the right answer, also continuing to not take a heretical approach in sin against what our early Church Fathers taught us and our Catholic Church continues to teach us in our Catechism until another Saint comes along that has been given more Revelation from God that Our Church is still discerning through Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture. Our Church is always discerning with the Holy Spirit when it comes to Prophets and Mystics, and Visionaries and will always be certain not to go against Church teaching and God’s Holy Word. A current example of this is Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta, and this is evident from her writings that are so brilliant and remarkable and are beginning to make more and more sense as we continue to move towards the end of this evil era of time. We are living in such exciting times right now, that we want to ensure that we are Serving Our Lord to bring souls back to Him, but not circumventing what Our Church has taught us thus far, and only trying to understand what God wants us to know to be prepared for this intermediate coming of Our Lord, Jesus Christ.

First, we are going to post what St. Augustine taught us in his writings on “The City of God (Book XX)” in which he analyzed the Scriptures and put them all together in discerning with the Holy Spirit what He is revealing to us in His Holy Word, in a post from the New Advent. We have read all the way through and have focused on Chapters 6, 7, 9, 13, 16, 17, 20, and 23. We are still praying for discernment and praying for God to reveal to us what He wants us to know that has been revealed to St. Augustine and the Scriptures we have quoted previously on 1 Corinthians 15:51-52. https://www.newadvent.org/fathers/120120.htm.

If you scroll down to Chapters 6 and 7, we can see here that St. Augustine teaches us that the Harvest that comes at the end of the world (which the end is this specific era of time right now), are the souls of the First Resurrection. These souls are the martyrs that have died testifying to the Holy Word of God. These souls are also the souls that have not taken the mark of the beast, and have stayed faithful to God, even through the Persecution period of the antichrist.

If we reflect on 1 Corinthians 15:51-52, https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians%2015:51-52&version=NIV, we have discerned that those who are still alive, (meaning not martyred, but in a refuge) will be changed in an instant, according to St. Augustine, that we will suddenly in the twinkling of an eye per St. Paul, be transformed into saints. St. Augustine goes on to teach us that the First Resurrection is the first death of our mortal bodies, and our souls are with God even if in Purgatory, and the Second Resurrection is the final judgement of uniting our mortal bodies with our souls, which comes after the 1,000 years or an unspecified time period. We all knew this because as Catholics we all know that the final judgment, as taught in our Catechism, is at the very end of the world, not this period of time that we are discerning we are getting ready to enter into in the Era of Peace. This very end of the world is also called the general judgment where God judges all of our sins of commission and omission that have affected all of life, and will be viewed by all, and those of us that are reigning with Christ in the First Resurrection will also have our bodies united to our souls in eternal life in the Second Resurrection and those condemned, (souls are already in Hell) their bodies will join their souls in Hell, which is eternal death.

Chapter 9 is really what we are focusing on in trying to understand what St. Augustine refers to in the Harvest, which is in the Book of Revelation 14:14. (Notice here that this is the equivalent of two number “7”s. Not what St. Agustine stated, but my own personal discernment of the middle of completion, not fully complete, which comes in Chapter 21 in the New Heaven and New Earth.) So, the Harvest, according to St. Augustine is the reaping of God’s saints both of the souls of the Martyrs, and those who are still alive in Christ. There is no raising of physical bodies out of the grave, but the dead shall be raised “imperishable”. This means that the Martyrs are to become the Saints that reign with Christ during the Era of Peace, but also those who are still alive will become Saints that reign with Christ. This is explained in Chapter 16 by St. Augustine here, “Having finished the prophecy of judgment, so far as the wicked are concerned, it remains that he speak also of the good. Having briefly explained the Lord’s words, These will go away into everlasting punishment, it remains that he explain the connected words, but the righteous into life eternal. Matthew 25:46 And I saw, he says, a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away; and there is no more sea. Revelation 21:1 This will take place in the order which he has by anticipation declared in the words, I saw One sitting on the throne, from whose face heaven and earth fled. For as soon as those who are not written in the book of life have been judged and cast into eternal fire — the nature of which fire, or its position in the world or universe, I suppose is known to no man, unless perhaps the divine Spirit reveal it to some one — then shall the figure of this world pass away in a conflagration of universal fire, as once before the world was flooded with a deluge of universal water. And by this universal conflagration the qualities of the corruptible elements which suited our corruptible bodies shall utterly perish, and our substance shall receive such qualities as shall, by a wonderful transmutation, harmonize with our immortal bodies, so that, as the world itself is renewed to some better thing, it is fitly accommodated to men, themselves renewed in their flesh to some better thing.“

This is what we have also discerned from the Holy Spirit about those of us that remain and are not martyred who will need to be changed instantly into a Saint. This is because as the old Heaven and old Earth are changed (transformed), which is what will occur during the 3 Days of Darkness explained by St. Padre Pio), we also who are still alive will have to be Saints along with the martyred to reign with Christ in the New Heaven and New Earth. Because, if Heaven is coming down to Earth, you can’t be in Heaven without being a Saint! This is basically what Luisa Piccarreta has explained to us as perpetually living in the Trinitarian Will. If there will no longer be a Purgatory, because we have made atonement for our sins while suffering through the Tribulation period, then we have washed our robes white to be able to be made worthy to instantly become a saint that lives in the Era of Peace. So, based on my discernment from the Holy Spirit and what St. Augustine has taught us, the Harvest is a gathering of both the souls of the martyred, and those who are still alive in Christ, who will both reign with Christ during the Era of Peace. If Heaven is brought down to Earth, there is no longer a Purgatory, and Our Church will be made whole again under the reign of Jesus Christ our King (Spiritually). This is most definitely going to be a small number of people and will include the 144,000 sealed that are spoken of in St. John’s vision in Revelation, Chapter 7, and the Triumph of the Elect. Again, note that the description of the Saints that will reign with Christ is under Chapter “7”(meaning completion). So, the Saints that will enter into the Era of Peace are identified by God to St. John in Revelation Chapter 7 for a reason as the first set of completeness (being sealed by God). This is the group we want to be in, whether we are martyred, or we survive the time of great distress because God is calling us to be His saints no matter what happens to us during the Tribulation Period as long as we remain Faithful to Him! The Holy Spirit revealed this to us also in August 2022, this is the post we wrote about having proof of the necessity of a physical Refuge for God. https://liveandloveforjesus.com/2022/08/10/understanding-given-by-the-holy-spirit-on-comparing-prophetic-dreams-to-information-from-gill-broussard-on-the-elliptical-path-of-planet-7x-the-warning-and-the-opening-of-the-seals-in-the-book-of-re/.

We mustn’t be afraid if we are martyred, because Our Lord is going to Harvest our souls to be united with Him, and we mustn’t be afraid if we are being refined and purified in a Refuge because God is still going to make us His saints in the end and both groups will be with the Trinity during the Era of Peace living in God’s Divine Will. This is our personal discernment, and we are not prophets, but just trying to understand what God is revealing to us in these times. Everything will remain a mystery until God has revealed it, and this is what Our Lord wants us to have an understanding of thus far. We will try and do some further reconciling of prophetic messages from current prophets, such as Lorena, and older Saints, such as St. Robert Bellarmine to discern if there is anything else Our Lord wants us to know right now.

Here are the latest messages from After the Warning website. Here is a very important message given to Lorena on February 19, 2023. https://afterthewarning.com/messages-from-heaven/lorena/2023/february/20/the-war-is-imminent/.

The prayers given to Lorena are also the prayers we are praying currently, not because Lorena said this previously, but because God has put on our hearts the importance of all of these prayers and Rosaries. Here is another very powerful message given to Lorena, and why we must keep preparing and praying without ceasing for the salvation of souls! https://afterthewarning.com/messages-from-heaven/lorena/2023/february/20/many-will-be-taken-away-preserved-or-martyred/.

Notice, that Lorena stated in her message that the martyred souls will be preserved. We will pray for discernment from the Holy Spirit on this message and if it relates to what St. Agustine has taught us.

Here is a very important message from Luz De Maria on a plague coming again of the skin. Everyone should by now already have the recommended natural remedies that Our Blessed Mother has given us through Luz De Maria. We have posted these many times in this blog, but you can go to our “How to Prepare Physically” menu to get this information. https://afterthewarning.com/messages-from-heaven/luz-de-maria/2023/february/20/this-moment-is-urgent-for-humanity/.

Here is the latest given to Shelley Anna. https://afterthewarning.com/messages-from-heaven/shelley-anna/2023/february/20/pray-my-children/.

Here is another important update from Father Jim Blount, whom I just love because of his humility. This is an update of discernment given to Father Jim about the Blackout vision he received from Our Blessed Mother two years ago. Father Jim states that Our Blessed Mother revealed that the Blackout will be a Blackout of our Church because of sin. Then a Blackout of us being able to receive the Holy Eucharist and going to Church. Then a final Blackout in our homes, of us not being able to go to Church online. This sounds like through our discernment a lockdown in our homes again due to plague, or a power grid failure. Also, a Blackout of our Church that will be taking place of God being taken away from us in the Holy Eucharist. Lord, Jesus, please have mercy on us! https://afterthewarning.com/messages-from-heaven/miscellaneous-messages/2023/february/22/blackout-updated/.
