“ASCENSION”

Volume 26
May 12, 1929

I was thinking of Our Lord’s glorious and triumphant Ascension into Heaven, His Humanity no longer humiliated, subject to pains, wearing the garment of corrupted Adam, but beyond the reach of any pain, wearing the garment of the new innocent Adam, with all the most beautiful prerogatives of Creation, gowned with light and immortal. But while I was thinking about this, my most sweet Jesus, stirred within me and said to me: “My daughter, My Humanity redid within Itself, and upon Itself, all the evils of corrupted mankind, to the point of dying, so as to give It the power to rise again from death to which It had been made subject. This is the reason why I did not leave behind the Kingdom of My Divine Will upon earth—because the glorious and deathless humanity of innocent Adam was missing, that could plead for It and receive the great gift of My Fiat. That is why it was necessary that My Humanity first remake corrupted humanity and give it all the remedies that it needed to raise it up again, and then die and rise again with the qualities of innocent Adam, so as to be able to give back to man what he had lost. Not only this, but I wanted to ascend into Heaven with My Humanity just as beautiful and clothed with light just as it came forth from Our creative hands, so as to say to the Heavenly Father: “My Father, look at Me: See how My Humanity has been re-made—how the Kingdom of Our Will is safe within It. I am the Head of all creatures—and the One who prays to You has every right to ask and to give what I possess.”

“My daughter, an innocent humanity was needed—with all the qualities that it had when it came forth from Our creative hands—to plead once more for the Kingdom of Our Will to come among men. Up to that time it was missing, and I purchased it with My death, and I ascended into Heaven to fulfill, with my first task, my second task of asking and giving the Kingdom of My Divine Will on earth. For about two thousand years this Humanity of Mine has been praying, and Our Divine Majesty, feeling the love for Creation which We had in creating man overflow from Itself again—with even greater force—and feeling Itself enraptured and charmed by the beauties of My Humanity, It has poured Itself out again. And, opening the Heavens, It has made the rain of light of the many pearls of knowledge of My Fiat rain down in torrents, so that, like rain, It may descend upon souls, and vivify and heal the human will with Its light, so that, transforming man’s will, It may plunge the root of My Will into men’s hearts, and may establish Its Kingdom on earth. Before My Kingdom could come upon earth, I first had to make It known, and I had to make known that It wants to come to reign. And, as an elder brother of the human family, I am making all the preparations in Heaven before the Divinity, to give mankind so great a purchase. That is why I had to ascend into Heaven with My Humanity glorified, to be able to re-purchase the Kingdom of My Fiat for My brothers and children.
