“They would not grasp the love of the truth which could have saved them. This is the reason why God is sending a power to delude them and make them believe what is untrue. To condemn all who refused to believe in the truth and chose wickedness instead” (2 Thes 2:10-12).
The world remains asleep, profoundly mired in its deceptions, despite the increasing warnings given by God to rouse humanity. It does not want to hear and it does not want to see. Above all, it does not want to admit because it does not want to change. This is the reality of our present world. So, despite all that occurred, is occurring and will continue to occur with ever-growing frequency, the world remains profoundly lethargic and seemingly content in its torpor.
How long do you expect this state of affairs to last, before retribution is meted out by the Divine Justice? Man deliberately rejecting the Father, His Son and Their Holy Spirit, to continue re-building the tower of Babel, in a renewed attempt to take for himself the power of God and become god without the need for God? Such an attempt was repeatedly made both throughout the history of mankind and before history itself began. But it always failed despite those who believed otherwise – including those whose natures were higher than our own and who knew better.
So what makes you think, O man, that you are going to succeed this time around? Or do you intend to rewrite history? Have you become so full of yourself it has become impossible for you to understand even the easiest of facts? The love and mercy of God our Father are infinite, it is true; but so are His Righteousness and Justice. How long, therefore, do you think you can provoke God with deliberate and at times overtly malicious intent, without sorrow for what you keep doing and without bringing down the consequences?
O man, how you have allowed yourself to be deceived! To what extent have you bought into the lie! How blind you have become, you who were once clothed with the light of splendor – the Divine Light – bought for you through the pain of the Cross, precisely so you could be robed once again with the light which was lost at the beginning of time. How can you have let your senses become so thoroughly appropriated by the Evil One that you now think darkness is fully light, whereas light is complete darkness? By what unimaginable contortion of reason can you hope to obtain light from darkness, given that darkness can never create light, since only Light Himself can both create and provide that which you seek without end?
