(Thy Will Be Done. It’s here. More info below. But now, on to the post:)

Radical Hope. Existential Despair.

These are the two paths diverged before us. The wood in which they depart is not yellow, as in Frost’s famous poem, but so pitch black as to terrify whoever derives his strength not from God. And the eyes that peer down these paths, be they not the eyes of Faith, likewise will see only more darkness ahead. What this leaves us with now is a simple existential choice which cannot adequately proceed under the guidance of a merely human assessment of existing societal conditions. We can choose Radical Hope, or we can choose Existential Despair. It’s up to you. Let us consider first an illustration of the latter. And here we descend from lofty poetry to the gutter of Hollywood. 

Children of Men (2006) is not exactly a good movie, but like other similarly filthy Hollywood productions, it does at least provide some apt commentary. The film’s premise is simple and true: without any real hope for the future of the world, chaos, degradation, ugliness, sin, error, and  misery are bound to reign supreme even now. One way to ensure no such hope exists is to posit a time in which all women are suddenly mysteriously rendered permanently barren, which is in fact the setting for this film. Here is a video I made with clips from its opening scenes. Do not click “play” if children are nearby. 

Superficially, it might seem that an end to childbearing would make life easier in the short run. New life, though requiring enormous sacrifice, time, and expense to raise and educate, is not socially “useful” for many years. Accordingly, this universal barrenness  is precisely what is promoted by one of the most twisted living philosophers on the planet, Peter Singer. He is quite open to the notion that we should all sterilize ourselves and party our way into extinction. Take it from an academic in Singer’s own field: I can, sadly, assure you that he is a very powerful scholar who is widely admired by similarly deluded academics and whose diabolical teachings carry substantial weight. Advocating for “Human Extinctionism” has become a thing in modern academia, replete with its own published Manifestos and a cadre of so-called intellectuals promoting it. (If you click that link, you might just find a familiar face as the “top” review)

Singer, of course, is just as wrong on this as he is on everything. There would be no partying in the dystopia he so desires, only wailing and grinding of teeth. Hell–whether in eternity or on earth–never does live up to its promises. 

So we need hope for the future of the world. We need it. The fact that we are Christians, and our supreme and ultimate hope is placed only in Heaven, does not change this fact.  

But these are cliché truths. Why am I posting about this?

Because society has now reached the point where the very question that once could (at least plausibly) be answered with a multitude of responses now only allows for two. 

The question is “where do we go from here?”

We could once entertain the promises of those who, in seeking to answer that question, charted out for us a carefully strategized plan to incrementally address various problems here and there. If all went twice as well as they anticipated, then an argument could be made that their solutions could produce some measurable benefits several thousand years from now. 

Today, as we approach the year 2022, having experienced all that 2020 and 2021 set before us, only those who are paid handsomely to sit, smile, and nod – when, perhaps, told about how we will “Build Back Better!” – can so much as stomach this drivel any longer. We—the modern west—have dug ourselves a grave that human effort cannot pull us out of, and most ordinary people now recognize that. In the times about to descend upon us, everyone will recognize that.

So I write this post to exhort the proper use of the nausea one feels when hearing our politicians, celebrities, pundits, and business leaders happily announce that our problems will be soon fixed by “just a few” trillion more dollars in federal spending, “just” several trillion dollars to fight “climate change,” “just a few” more months of lockdowns to get past the “fifth wave,” “just” several more mandatory gene therapy injections to get back to normalcy, “just another year” of covering 2/3rds of our faces everywhere we go and destroying social life, “just” a complete reorientation of society itself to resolve “systemic racism,” “just” a few more horrendous sexual perversions institutionally endorsed and universally praised to grant “equality,” “just” …. (need I continue this list?)

Indeed, today we are confronted with only two possible reactions to the question above:

1) Radical Hope (In Epoch-Altering Divine Intervention)

Or

2) Existential Despair (Of the sort illustrated well by the movie clip above).

The world is in crisis, and every human solution has now finally finished proving itself completely, utterly, totally, irrefutably, undeniably useless to the extreme.

Education has only made us stupid and “woke.” Democracy has now enslaved us like no tyrannical empire ever did—no tyrant in history was so bold as to place his entire nation under home imprisonment as has been done now in the name of Covid, nor mandated his entire populace (under pain of prison, as will be so in Austria and likely much of the world come February 2022) to get something injected into their bodies. Technology has created far more problems than it has solved (riddle me this: have smartphones and “social” media made us more communicative and social, or less?). Science, by nature directed at God’s truth, has now only served to empower our rejection of Him and give us more fodder to bury ourselves in our own lies of secular messianism. Modern economics and finance (choose any political variety you like) has turned most of the world’s population into serfs who must in some way answer to a diabolical agenda if they want to be able to pay the bills.

All this has been building up for many years, of course, but then along came Coronavirus– specifically, the world and the Church’s response to it– which was like the first loud “crack” one hears heralding the collapse of a giant oak tree, even if the relentless “thump, thump, thump” of the axe laying into its trunk had carried on for so long as to become overlooked background noise.

These two paths, diverged in the dark forest before us, are indeed unequally travelled.

The world will despair more and more in the times ahead. Your calling, dear friends, is to answer that with utterly radical hope. Not only for eternity – that, indeed, above all. But also for the world.

I exhort you to take the one less travelled by. It will make all the difference. 

To that end, I present to you the book, Thy Will Be Done. Its message is one of radical hope in Christ the King, and its thesis is so solidly supported that no one who reads it carefully and with an open heart will be able to deny the truth of that hope-filled message. With this book, I am to spread radical hope with more veracity than any Pandemic could infect the world.

Please do everything you can to ensure that this book reaches the ends of the earth as quickly as possible.

Christ is King. We who know that must proclaim it.

---

---

---

Here are some ways you can help proclaim it using this new book.

Please also remember that—I truly believe—this book should be extremely helpful for any Catholic at all (or any Christian, or any person, at all, really; though Catholics are its intended audience); no matter his take on any particular private revelation. The majority of the book does not concern itself with any individual private revelation, and there are no direct quotes from Luisa’s revelations anywhere in it, so in reading and promoting this book, no one need have any concern whatsoever about any ecclesial notifications, etc. 

(Moving forward, I will be keeping all of this information very easy to find here at dsdoconnor.com, and at the following lengthy URL: www.ThyWillBeDoneOnEarthAsItIsInHeaven.com) (that website still needs a lot of work, which I’ll be getting to in the days ahead)

Here again is the link to the book itself: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09MC3F1TG 

Soon, the paperback should be combined in that same page with the eBook. For now, you can find/order it here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1957168005 

Pray!

Please pray that this book may quickly reach the ends of the earth, all for the salvation and sanctification of souls and the Triumph of Christ the King. (And I ask that you add, in your prayers, that God alone receive all the glory, not this book’s unworthy author.)

Leave a review!

If you feel it is deserving of this, please consider leaving the book a 5 Star review on Amazon! Each 5 Star review posted causes Amazon’s algorithms to promote the book, which will cause the Divine Will to be introduced to more souls, more quickly. Just go to the book’s page on Amazon, scroll down a little bit, and on the left hand side of the page you should see a “Write a Customer Review” button, which you can then click to leave a review. Or, you can use this link to be taken directly to the page to review it.

Bulk Orders of the Paperback

(I’m now accepting bulk orders! See link on the right hand sidebar, or go to dsdoconnor.com/twbd)

Purchase the Paperback for Others

It’s very easy to purchase something on Amazon and have it directly sent to anyone as a gift. Just go to the Paperback’s page, add the book to your cart, click “proceed to checkout,” and then you can click the button to make it a gift to someone else – and make sure to change the shipping address to theirs! See the screenshots below for an example of how to do so:

Send this to priests!

As I mentioned when I announced this book’s publication, a primary goal I have in mind with it is to introduce more priests to the Divine Will. Jesus is asking them to be the primary heralds of this message, and the Kingdom will not come on earth until they are proclaiming it. We, therefore, must help them learn about this! The most helpful thing you could do in this regard is to yourself, using the method above, purchase the book directly for them. But if, for any reason at all, you’d rather not do that yourself, then please just tell me, and I will! As I mentioned, thanks to an incredibly generous donation from C (pray for her!), I will be able to send out a very large amount of free copies of this book to priests. I’m sure I won’t be able to fulfill all the requests, so I do deeply appreciate anyone who is willing to buy copies for priests themselves, but please don’t hesitate to fill out the form below to let me know of any priests you’d like to receive this book

What kind of priests should this book be sent to? Any priest who loves Jesus, Mary, the Church, and his vocation, and who desires the salvation and sanctification of souls. He doesn’t have to be perfect. 

Here is the form to have a free copy of the paperback sent to priests: https://forms.gle/b7wT72Hximfg2Jq6A 

(And yes, if you yourself are a priest who wants this book but, for whatever reason at all (no judgment and no questions asked!) does not want to buy it, you too can also fill out that form!)

Donations

Please do not feel any pressure to do this, but if you’d like to donate to help out with this book’s promotion, you can do so with this link. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_donations&business=YVXFHGC4P2NDL&currency_code=USD&source=url 

(As you’ll notice, the donation will go to “St. Joseph Mechanical Solutions, LLC.” That is just the full legal name for St. Joseph’s Solutions, the DBA under which I am publishing this book. That’s indeed my LLC, which I formed 8 years ago with the intent of having it house my inventions. Well, I never got around to the inventions part, so now I just use it to keep Divine Will related finances (donations/book-orders/etc.) entirely separated from my personal finances. God has been good to me in giving me a job with which I can support my family, and as long as I can do that, all donations will go towards proclaiming the Divine Will and the Divine Mercy.)

You can also mail a check to:

Daniel O’Connor

PO Box 10852

Albany, NY 12201

At this point, I’m not organized enough with this to accept earmarked donations. So if you have something specific in mind that you’d like your money to do in this effort (e.g., a certain amount of copies of the paperback sent out to a certain group of people in a certain area), that’s something you’re probably best off arranging independently. But you can rest assured that I’ll be using these donations only for, and entirely for, proclaiming the Divine Mercy and the Divine Will. I will be particularly focusing on sending out free paperback copies of this book to priests. I’ll probably also do some digital promotion (perhaps via Amazon or YouTube), but I don’t plan on doing much of that, as I don’t like the idea of lining Big Tech’s coffers any more than necessary. I may also make some videos, which I’ll have to purchase stock footage, etc., for. I’ll also purchase more evangelization cards, which my wife and I have been sending out for free (thanks to generous donations!) for many years now.

(Yes, I will use donations to promote both the Divine Will and Divine Mercy! Those who are only interested in helping Luisa’s revelations be spread and nothing else will have to donate elsewhere! I, for one, simply cannot separate proclaiming the Divine Will from proclaiming the Divine Mercy. It is, quite literally, a match made in Heaven, and our world is in dire need of both together, so as long as we’re in the Time of Mercy, I’ll always be combining them. You can see more for my reasoning about this towards the end of Part Three of the book itself)

1. I am honored to have recently 1) Been interviewed on In His Name Catholic radio (show archived here), 2) Given a Zoom talk at the launch of a new Divine Will bookstore in the UK (here)   3) Spoken at events in Ohio and New Jersey (if I am able to, I’ll upload those talks to my YouTube channel)
2. I put up a new video on my YouTube channel: Last Chance for America. If any of its segments feel a bit awkwardly strung together, I’ll openly confess to you now that I shot that video for something else, but didn’t use it then, and so repurposed it for promoting the book.
3. For weeks, I’ve been pummeled with correspondence regarding my clarification in Fr. Michel’s last message (some quite angry at me!). Please remember that my only purpose in issuing the clarification was to ensure that, due to the ambiguity of the wording, no one wrongly supposed that the message implied Joseph was not celibate or had other wives before/besides Mary. I’m aware of the revelations to Venerable Agreda and Blessed Emmerich and I do believe in them; both, indeed, are in agreement on this point. This, however, brings up another important point: Agreda and Emmerich, though both authentic, do contradict each other on some matters; so, clearly, at least one of them is in error in some cases! Therefore, care is advised even there, but I take a particularly careful approach to living seers and I’ll never refrain from issuing clarifications if and when I feel they are called for. Catholic Orthodoxy –  in accord with Public Revelation – is our absolute standard, now and always, and I’ll always filter everything through that. Whoever finds that approach of mine scandalous, and is just looking for an author who will blindly accept every single item from every alleged seer, will have to look elsewhere.

Yesterday I came across two announcements whose timing could not have been more fitting.

First, the October 25th, 2021 message from Our Lady at Medjugorje:

Second, this policy announcement from yet another diocese in Canada:

(This announcement was posted on the website for the Cathedral of the Diocese: immaculateconceptionparish.ca The PDF itself can be found here, though it may be difficult to open)

The following screenshot is taken directly from the Cathedral website’s main page. Just to verify, in case anyone is wondering, this is the Catholic Church… in Canada – not a prison camp … in North Korea:
If this isn’t the Infrastructure of the Antichrist, then please tell me, what is?

If we aren’t, right now, one small step away from the literal Mark of the Beast itself, then what conditions do you have in mind as immediately preceding its introduction?

With each passing day, it is becoming harder and harder to deny that the time of the long-prophesied events is upon us. This most recent message from Medjugorje is yet another example. As anyone who has followed Medjugorje knows, it is not exactly another Gisella Cardia or Fr. Michel. That is, Medjugorje messages are usually very spiritual, basic, and generally refrain from what a critic would call “commentary.” Here, however, we see them clearly speaking of precisely what is going on in both the Church and the world with these Godless “bonds,” that is, the restraints which both secular and religious authorities are placing upon us and with which they are trampling underfoot our civil and religious rights. This tells discerning minds that something is changing. 

Note that the Diocesan Decree pictured above requires not only “vaccination” with an abortion-tainted experimental gene therapy simply in order to be allowed into Church for Mass, but also an Electronic QR Code, which will itself be scanned with a government smartphone app (“NLVaxVerify”) and automatically compared to an official database.

As I’ve said it recently, I won’t describe again here the utterly diabolical nature of these bonds that are being placed upon us, merely to have the ability to attend Mass. Instead, what I want to point out today is how significant it is that no longer will a vaccination card suffice. Though it was rationalized as a mere resolution to a security issue (as most of the forthcoming developments also will be) presented by fake vaccine cards, this was the entire plan from the beginning. It is all about setting up the Infrastructure of the Antichrist. As I speculated previously, once almost everyone has the “vaccine passport” or something similar on their smartphones, there perhaps will be some orchestrated cyber-attack which itself will “require” a new technology to address it – namely, a chip in the right hand. (And, yes, the digital currency/bitcoin paradigm shift will also be a catalyst.) We are getting very close to that point. 

Do not, therefore, let your spiritual guard down. Heed the Call for the Endurance of the Saints. 

The times will only become harder, but you must know that grace will increase in proportion to the difficulty, therefore have no fear at all. Or, rather, increase in the outpouring of God’s grace will far surpass the continued deterioration of societal conditions.

Such times as these, which we are so blessed to be alive during, are the envy of saints! Treat them as such, and you will build up incomprehensible treasures in Heaven, hasten the Coming of the Kingdom of God, and save more souls around you than you ever thought possible. 

Fail to treat them as such – perhaps by placing your heart’s desire not in salvation and sanctification but rather in a worldly “return to normalcy” and a concomitant willingness to do whatever it takes to “get life back to normal” – and you will soon find yourself on the dark side. And I mean soon. Before we know it, there will be no middle ground left, and all the lukewarm souls who formerly occupied it will be described well by the latter portion of C.S. Lewis’s famous dichotomy presented in The Weight of Glory:

The dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship, or else a horror and a corruption such as you now meet, if at all, only in a nightmare.

All day long we are, in some degree, helping each other to one or other of these destinations. 

“Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” – Revelation 14:12

I initially thought this was fake news when I saw it posted on a blog today. I then looked it up myself on the Archdiocese of Moncton’s own website, and immediately discovered that, no, it was real. An entire Catholic Archdiocese in Canada, starting September 22, will completely ban all unvaccinated people from the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. So many of our leaders in Church have, since early 2020, essentially apostatized in the name of public health, but this is a demonic new low. 

This is no longer “just” about making a vaccine mandatory for a certain job, or school, or entertainment venue. It is now about forcing people to violate their consciences merely in order to be permitted at the Lord’s Table. The magnitude of the present diabolical disorientation baffles the mind. In Moncton now — and likely soon in many other places throughout the world — unless one receives an experimental injection, developed using cell lines from aborted babies, he is not even permitted to be at Mass, much less to receive Communion. Meanwhile, many of our shepherds appear happy to have at Mass, and give Communion to, the most notorious and scandalous of public sinners (e.g. pro abortion politicians). 

Though doubtless far from the last, this heinously evil new directive is the first instance of its kind that I have come across, and it makes one thing clear:

We are now entering the times that have been prophesied for decades.

Accordingly, we must heed the call of the Book of Revelation to have the endurance of the saints. 

Now, let us, indeed, fight, fight, and fight still more against injustice. For we mustn’t ever be defeatists, and until the Warning itself happens, we can never know for sure if God Wills yet another extension in the Time of Mercy. 

That being said, let us — more importantly — not cling too tightly to our expectations of what will come from engaging in that noble fight. For it seems more likely that matters will only get worse and worse; a reality of which whoever has read the recent prophecies is well aware (If you haven’t, feel free to click around on the recent posts of this blog!). This is why the Book of Revelation calls for endurance (in other translations, the “patience” of the saints), not activism.  

Some practical advice in the trials that are so common for the Faithful today: I advise against making major decisions before you absolutely must. Matters are changing so rapidly these days that what seems pressing to decide today might just, tomorrow, no longer be an issue. Do not think about your troubles and dilemmas for one minute more than prudence requires their consideration. Do not fret, and do not ever willfully entertain any fears, worries, or anxieties. Have you forgotten that God is no less in charge of all things now than He was in 2019? (Or 1950? Or 1200? Or 30 A.D.?) Wait on the Lord. His guidance will not fail. And He is about to intervene in an extraordinary way. Do not be discouraged. And do not agonize over “not knowing God’s Will.” If you are sincerely trying to know and do God’s Will, then you are knowing and doing God’s Will. It is that simple. For it often is His Will that we ourselves, for a time, be uncertain as to some of the precise details of His plans for us. It is times like those, especially, where we are exactly where God wants us; because we can then put the most meritorious Faith and Trust in Him. Say always — make it a veritable mantra, uttering it even thousands of times a day — “Jesus, I Trust in You. Thy Will be done. I give You my will; please give me Yours in Return. Let Your Kingdom Come! Let Your Will be done on earth as It is in Heaven!”

And no matter what the world or the wolves within the Church throw at us, let us never give up. 

Never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever.

The Endurance of the Saints

• Have you, dear unvaccinated Catholic, been banned from Mass in your Diocese? Then go anyway. Go with your whole family and kneel on the sidewalk immediately outside of the Church as the Mass is celebrated. Day after day. Week after week. In nice weather and in a blizzard. 
• Have you been told that your own employment, or studies, or enjoyments, or friendships — or anything else — is now contingent upon you violating your conscience? (And no one — no one — can tell you that your conscience must permit something which you know full well it does not permit. While conscience may never make Church Teaching more lax, it absolutely can [and, in a well-formed conscience, almost always does] demand a more rigorous moral path for yourself than the baseline required by Church Teaching.) Then kiss those situations goodbye with a genuine smile. God will repay you a thousand fold. “Whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.” (Matthew 16:25)
• Has your work, or school, or other duties foisted the LGBT agenda or other “woke” ideologies on you and demanded your acquiescence? Perhaps by demanding you call a “he” a “she,” or by calling a man another man’s “husband,” or by in any way condoning abortion? You, and you alone, will answer for your words on Judgment Day. All of them. Never speak a lie, even if it leads to your death. 

• Have restrictions or obligations been placed upon you — whether civil or ecclesial — that are in stark and diametric opposition to your duties before God? Then you not only may, but must, disobey them. Absolutely no one — Not a Pope, not President; no one — may tell a priest in good standing that he cannot administer the sacraments. Nor is any temporal risk too great to take to administer them. But this is not only for priests — are you an usher or other parish volunteer who has been instructed to turn unvaccinated people away from the Mass? Disobey. Welcome them with open arms. I won’t go through an array of examples here, I only list two to illustrate the point: we must indeed generally obey the directives of legitimate authority acting within its jurisdiction. But we must never obey anyone in any circumstance when it comes to sin being commanded. And we can indeed become guilty of sin by commission or by omission. Never forget the latter. 
• Let the degree of zeal with which you live and proclaim the Faith increase in proportion to the degree of persecution foisted upon you. Such times are the envy of saints! We know Who wins. All we need to do is choose if we are on His side or the world’s.       
• BECOME SAINTS!!!
• Proclaim the Divine Mercy
• Proclaim the Kingdom
• Live in the Divine Will
• Pray, pray, pray. (And please, pray the Rosary every day!)

Trust and be at Peace. These are the most exciting times in the history of the world to be alive.
