HIS COMMENT ON HIS BAPTISM BY JOHN
________

"John did not need any sign for himself.  His soul, presanctified in his
mother's womb, possessed that penetration of supernatural intelligence that
all men would have had if Adam had not sinned.

John was the lips, I the Word.  He was the Precursor both in the Gospel and
in martyrdom.

But a sign was necessary for the darkness of other people.  On what would
John base his statement, but on an undeniable proof evident to the eyes and
ears of backward and dull listeners?

He descended Himself, a divine Dove, on Him Who was to baptise men with
that Dove, and His announcement was heard descending from Heaven, more
powerful than an angel's, because it came from My Father:  "This is My
beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased".  So that man should have no excuse
or doubt in following or not following Me.

The manifestations of Christ have been numerous.  My miracles are
manifestations of My divine nature.  My fatherland was full of My
manifestations.

And they take place even now.  But, as in the past, the world does not
accept them.  It does not accept the present manifestations and forgets the
past ones.

Well, I will not give up.  I will repeat Myself..

Do you know, Mary, what I am doing *in showing you* the Gospel?  Making a
stronger attempt to bring men to Me.  You yearned for it with your fervent
prayers.

I will no longer confine Myself to words.  They tire men and detach them.
It is a fault, but it is so.  I will have recourse to visions, also of My
Gospel, and I will explain them to make them more attractive and clear.

I give you the comfort of seeing them.  I give everybody the possibility of
wishing to know me.

And if it is of no avail, it does not matter.  Let them, the inconvertible
ones, heap burning coals on their heads and let us turn to the little sheep
seeking to become acquainted with their Shepherd.  It is I and you are the
staff leading them to Me."
