1996.10.14 The Word of God 1 at the Feast of the Protection 2 of the Lord’s Mother (Translated by I.A.) I am the good Shepherd. I am, Israel. I am, son, He Who comes to you and becomes word in you, as I want to strengthen you on your foundation, as I came from heaven from the Father to build the new age that I promised through the Scriptures. I am the Good Shepherd. The good Shepherd comes by the door into the fold of the sheep, and the gatekeeper opens to him, and the sheep listen to his voice, and he calls his sheep on the name, and he pastures them, and the sheep go after him, as they know his voice. I am the door of the sheep, and I have some other sheep, which are not from this fold, and I also have to bring them to hear My voice and to be one flock and one shepherd, as for that My Father sent Me. Israel, Israel, the good shepherd comes in, and the gatekeeper opens to him, and the sheep listens to the voice of the shepherd, as the good shep- herd does not climb up some other way. I am in the gates. Lift up, you gates, so that the Good Shepherd may come in and to shep- herd His flock. I did not come alone, Israel. I came with the saints, son. I came with My mother Virgin, and with the saints. Israel, son, I came with Verginica 3 , son, Israel, as I turned her into a door that I entered to shepherd you like a good Shepherd. I came with the door; I came with Verginica, in which I dwelt to be a door for the sheep, as it is written: «If someone will enter through Me, will save himself and will go in and out, and will find pasture». I stand with My peace before you and upon you, people of My word. I came with pasture, sons; I came with a heavenly meal to you, as I want to see you eating of Me, as I am body and word on your table, Israel. I feed you from Me, My people. I am the Good Shepherd, son, and I feed you on Me. I lay down My body and spirit before you for you to eat My people, as I am body and word on your table. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep, not like the one that is paid, who when seeing the wolf flees and leaves the sheep like a thief; for he who does not go in on the door, that one is a thief and a robber for the sheep. I come with Verginica, Israel, as I became a door in her for you, My people, and I come in on the door to you and I shepherd you, and now she comes in through Me to you, to shepherd you with Me; to shepherd you with the word, My people, as Verginica is My word, as I am the Word of the Father. Verginica is My trumpet, and I am her trumpet. She is My word, and I am her word. Oh, Verginica, We do not climb up the gates, for the good shepherd does not jump over them. We are in the gates, Verginica, and the gatekeepers hear Us and open to Us, and We come in. We get in with the saints, as this is how I come, as it is the time to come, to come with the saints, as it writes that «The Lord comes with His tens of thousands of saints». We come in, God’s Word in „Holy Citadel New Jerusalem” monastery, Glodeni – Romania, redactor note. The feast day celebrates the appearance of the Mother of God at Blachernae (Vlaherna) in the tenth century. At the end of St. Andrei (Andrew of Constantinople) Yurodivyi's life, he, with his disciple St. Epiphanius, and a group of people, saw the Mother of God, St. John the Baptist, and several other saints and angels during a vigil in the Church of Blachernae, nearby the city gates. The Blachernae Palace church was where several of her relics were kept. The relics were her robe, veil, and part of her belt that had been transferred from Palestine during the fifth century. The Theotokos approached the center of the church, knelt down and remained in prayer for a long time. Her face was drowned in tears. Then she took her veil (cerement) off and spread it over the people as a sign of protection. During the time, the people in the city were threatened by a barbarian invasion. After the appearance of the Mother of God, the danger was averted and the city was spared from bloodshed and suffering, r.n. 3 Saint Virginia, the sixth apocalyptic trumpet (See selection topic: „The apocalyptic trumpets”, r.n.) 1 2 1
