About speculators and usurers

19th July 1847

Oh Lord, dear Holy Father! Behold, You have blessed this year for us most unworthy sinners with everything in such a way that, according to the news from all parts of the earth, hardly anybody remembers such an exceedingly blessed year as this present year 1847. Everywhere fruit in large quantities, the field crops abound, even the potatoes promise a very rich and healthy harvest until now, and the vine is also abundantly laden everywhere and, with Your grace, lets us expect an abundant late harvest as well. So also the food for the animals is provided. In short, this over and over blessed year leaves nothing to be desired by You, as far as Your blessing is concerned. But behold, Oh most holy and righteous God and Father! Despite this blessing of Yours, here and there a new, most hideous usurper worm begins again to practice it's purely infernal trade. Firstly, he buys this year's grain harvests all together at a high price in order to maintain the high grain price, if possible, and to sell his old stock at the truest sinful price; and secondly, in order to achieve an artificial grain shortage for the future and thereby raise the grain prices as high as possible! O Lord! Have you then for these most righteous devils of usurers no more lightning and no plague? How long will You test Your patience with them?

[1] Write only My righteous anger answer as prediction of what I will soon do.

[2] Behold, you My poor servant, lightnings would serve less purpose in this matter than a bad penny to buy a dominion, and the plague would strike the innocent together with the guilty. And if I were to curse the earth because of some of the outcasts of hell, the whole earth would be as it was in the days of Noah and in the days of Lot!

[3] But I have decided something quite peculiar, which I will do at the earliest opportunity to all usurers and other speculators; I will give them a reward, over which Satan himself, together with all his angels, is to marvel greatly!

[4] Truly, truly, who now laughs in his abundance and wealth, while countless poor people do not know where to beg some coins for bread for tomorrow, shall soon weep for Me in a way the world has never seen before!!! I tell you, for all these speculators and usurers and house and apartment brokers and industrial heroes and all great land buyers, sellers and owners and all kinds of builders and major planners and changers, this will be worse and unspeakably more troublesome than lightning, plague and war!

[5] The torch of My righteous wrath is already put to the earth; with a sea of fire of My wrath, I will quench My old thirst for revenge! Let the brood of hell, this old breed of vipers feel who I, the long-forgotten God, am! They – this brood, which has long disregarded and completely denied the Father – now deny Him more from day to day, will probably have to put up with the eternal omnipotent Judge; but, as said, in a way no hell and no world has ever dreamed of! But I am not telling you how and definitely – when, so that I will be able to break into the houses of the mentioned wrongdoers against My grace and mercy as a most ruthless thief, robber and murderer at the dead of night with greater ease and severity!

[6] Behold, for lightnings they have now already invented the best deflectors, for plague cordons and various effective medicines, and war is now waged with feather-pens and the mouth in the chambers; but against My new judgment, the earth bears no antidote except the prayer of those with whom I deal like with you, My poor servant. But I will tell them who they have to pray for in the future and under what conditions, so that nothing should hinder Me to let the wicked now taste My judgment in all gravity, which I withheld for a long time, if there is no improvement !!!

[7] Be content with this; for this time you shall hardly have foretold My judgment in vain like Jonah. Amen, Amen, Amen.
