The apocalyptic trumpets
I prophesied before My crucifixion that I will rise from the grave the third day , and when the third day broke , I woke up and shook the earth and heaven , and the angel came from above and pushed the stone away and he sat on it and the watchmen , who woke up because the earthquake ; they saw him sitting on the stone which was sealing the grave and they turned pale with fear and became like dead , and the prudes coming , wound the stone rolled up and they were told by the angel that I was risen and that I would go to My disciples . Mary sat by the grave to find out where I was put , and I showed Myself to her and said : « Who are you looking for ?», and looking at Me she knew me by My voice . She was the first among my disciples who saw me after the resurrection , but Barabbas , the thief , was present and woken up , as from My resurrection and until My coming , he did not straggle from around My grave , and during the time of the earthquake he saw the angel coming from above , who , rolling the stone , so big , and sitting on it , announced My resurrection to the prudes .
Oh , Barabbas , the thief , who believed that I was God , Who will rise and Who I escaped him from the death by My death and resurrection , for being from the world , he believed , and hearing My deeds , repented of all his wicked deeds . He did not judge My deeds and works as being wicked , the same as those from My Father ’ s house did . He looked at his wicked deeds when he saw Me given to death by the Jews in return for his release , for the world was crying for Me to be crucified and Barabbas to be freed . The world was advised by the priests to ask the freedom of Barabbas , known for his evil deeds , and when Pilate asked the world : « But what shall I do with Christ ?», the world answered to crucify Me , as it received teaching from the priests .
Oh , behold , where the wickedness goes from , even today against My work of the word . Barabbas fled from the world and followed Me , the One condemned to crucifixion , and Barabbas saw Me during the time of My resurrection , and saw the prunes , and saw Me when I came towards Mary , the Magdalene , who was crying waiting near the grave . This man from the world was happier thousand times than they who said that they belong to God and crucify Me out of their eagerness for God for the salvation of their kindred as Caiaphas said : « It is better to perish this One than all our people ». Oh , I do not call them fools , they who left forever from My wisdom saying that they were fools when they believed , but I say to them : happier will be a thief who has part to see My light and My age with a visible glory ; happier than the one who was with this secret of the word from heaven and did not remain near its ray until the great resurrection . Oh , instead of preparing and watching out for My coming in a little white dress and with a lit candle , they became unwise like the foolish virgins , who said to themselves that the Lord is delaying in His coming .
Oh , Israel , you should always say that the Lord is coming and always wait for the visible glory , so that you might not be taken by surprise , for happy is the one who is waiting dressed up and watching out , as Barabbas did until My resurrection . You should always say that the Lord is coming and you should always say : « Come , Lord !» as it is written : « The Spirit and the bride say : “ Come !” and let he who hears say as well : “ Come !”», and he is to say after you : “ Come Lord , come !”
Israel , son , you should always say that the Lord is coming , so that My coming in glory may be fulfilled , and you should always wait in a little holy coat , in a little white coat and say : „ Come Lord !”
