PRESENCE AND TRUTH PURGATORY

Interview with Maria Simma
Maria Simma, can you tell me how you are visited by a soul from Purgatory for the first time?
It happened in 1940. One night, around 3 or 4 in the morning, I heard someone come to the bedroom. It woke me up, I saw that someone was walking in the bedroom it back and forth like confusion.
You afraid to?
I'm not afraid, even when I was little my mother said that I was a special child, because I never felt scared. That night .... I saw there was a strange person. He walked back and forth slowly. I asked him: "How did you get here? Go!". But he continued to walk with impatience, as if he did not hear me. So I asked again "What are you going to do." She still did not answer, I got out of bed and tried to take hold, but I'm just holding the empty air only. I went to sleep again, but again I heard footsteps were moving to and fro. I wonder how I can see him, but I could not hold. I woke up again to hold and stop it. But I'm just holding the empty room. Suffused with a sense of wonder, I went back to bed. He did not come again, but since I can not sleep .. The next day, after Mass, I met with a spiritual adviser and told him all that had. He told me if it happened again, I should not ask "Who are you?", But rather to ask; "What do you want from me?". The next night he was back again, the same person. I asked .. "What do you want from me". He begged to perform the ceremony 3X Holy Mass for him, then he can be free from Purgatory. I found out that he is a soul from Purgatory. My spiritual adviser also confirms this, he also advised me not to forget the poor souls that, so I'm willing to accept any request they voluntarily.
After that, can anyone come again?
Yes there is, for some time, there are only 3 or 4 souls in November. After it is no more.
What prompted the souls of you?
Most of them ask for more Mass implemented and souls that will be present in the Holy Mass, the Rosary and the Stations of the Cross.
From here the main question arises: What is Purgatory it?
I say that it is an awesome God Mystery. May I give you a picture of the experience of myself.
Suppose one day there is an open door, and appears a being beautiful, very beautiful, with a beauty that has never existed in this world. You will be stunned by this light beings and the beauty of it. This creature then says that he loves you, you would never dream to be loved like that until so much! You feel that he wants to draw you to him, to be united with you and the fire of love blazing in your heart pushing to lay down your arms into the hands of the creature. But it turns out you realize that at that time you still have not showered, so that your body odor, runny nose, unkempt hair and disheveled, dust visible dirt on your clothes .. Then you will be ashamed of themselves with such a situation, first you go for a shower so clean, straight back. And the love that has blossomed your hearts so strong blazing, raging until the delay you for a bath it as a load of torment and pain for nothing, even though it only lasted a few minutes, it is a wound that pain in your heart, in proportion to the intensity from the statement of your love, then that is what is called the wound of love. Purgatory is a delay caused by impurities (sin) you, a hug dart delay Allah, a wound of love that causes suffering, an anticipation, a nostalgic love. Sebenarnva burning and yearning is what we are if it is still dirty washing in the din of our sins. Purgatory where the longing, the love of God, longing for God that we know, because we have seen him, but can not we unite with Him.
Then I asked again to explain a fundamental thing: Maria Simma whether the souls in Purgatory have happiness and hope in the midst of their suffering?
Yes, no souls of Purgatory who want to return to this world, they have higher knowledge than us. They just could not break back into the darkness of the world. Here we see the difference in suffering in Purgatory and on the earth. In Purgatory, though the pain experienced by a soul so horrible, but still no certainty to live forever with God. It is an unwavering certainty. Happiness is greater than the pain. Nothing in this world that can make them want to come back to live here, where people never feel certainty in all things
Maria Simma, can you tell us, if God sends a soul into Purgatory, or the soul itself decides to go there?
Does the soul itself which wants to go to Purgatory so that he becomes holy and pure before him to heaven .. The souls in Purgatory totally obedient to God's will, they are happy with kindness, they yearn for the good of us and they love God and they love us too. They are united by the Spirit of God, the light, and the glory of God.
Maria Simma, at the time of death, is there one could see God fully, or vague?
Vaguely, but all the same, in a certain brightness level where this is sufficient to cause a great longing in him. Indeed it is so light sheen when compared to the darkness in this world!
Maria Simma, can you tell me what is the role of the Virgin Mary to the souls in Purgatory?
He often came there to entertain them and said that they had a lot to do good. He encouraged them.
Are there certain days where the Virgin Mary to alleviate them?
More than anything else, is on Christmas day, the day of Saints, Good Friday, the Feast of ascension into Heaven, and Ascension, Pentecost
Maria Simma, why should go in Purgatory? What sins are most likely to cause people in Purgatory?
Sins against charity, the love around, a hard heart, cruelty, defame and slander, envy, revenge and greed, and others.
Yes, all that. The words of slander and slander is the worst of stained measures that require lengthy purification.
Maria Simma gave the example of a very touching himself.
One time he asked for help to find whether there was a woman and the man were in Purgatory. And very surprising those who ask, it turns out the woman was already in heaven, while the man was in Purgatory. When in fact this woman was dead when he committed the act of abortion while the man often went to church and live a good life and devotion.
Maria search for even more information and thought that he saw was wrong, it was not, he was right, two men died at the equal, but women experience conversion that really and he was very humble, while the man often criticized other people. He is always complaining and talking bad things about other people. This is why Purgatory for him for so long. Maria Sima concludes: "We can not judge a person's appearance". Another sin against generosity is our resistance to certain people we do not like, our refusal to make peace, our refusal to forgive and all attitudes of hate in ourselves. Maria Simma also illustrate this with another example which gives shade for our minds. Is a story of a woman who he ering good. The woman died and went to Purgatory, the most terrible place of Purgatory, with the most terrible suffering there anyway.
When he came to Maria Simma, he explained the other friends had a fellow woman and hostility between the two major happens, which actually began by himself. He maintained that hostility over the years, even though his friend had been repeatedly asked to terms with it, ask for reconciliation. But every time he menolaknva. When he was ill, he still closed the door of his heart, refusing to come to terms offered by his friend, until the time of his death arrived. I believe that this example has an important meaning associated with a sense of revenge, is maintained. And the words we too could also further damage: we never emphasize enough how criticism or bitter words can kill people, and vice versa, how a word can also heal.
Maria Simma tell us: Who is the person most likely to enter Heaven?
Those who have a good heart to everyone. Love overcome many sins.
Means did we use in the world is to avoid Purgatory straight into Heaven?
We must do much for the souls in Purgatory. Because they will be helping us. We must be humble, because this is a powerful weapon against evil, against Satan. Humility drive away demons. I could not resist not to tell you about a witness good of Pastor Berlioux (who wrote a book about the souls in Purgatory), of the aid offered by these souls to those who have helped them with prayers and sacrifice. He tells of a specifically devoted to the poor souls in Purgatory, and he dedicated his life to helping them.
"At the time of his death, he was attacked by the ferocious once by a demon who saw him would escape from his clutches."
It seems that all the inhabitants of the valley Purgatory united against him, protecting him from attacks deadly. "" Women are dying was struggling with full miserable for a while, when suddenly he saw a crowd of people unknown entered his apartment where men were in a state which were radiating beautiful beauty, which makes demons ran away and people were approaching his bed, talking to him to give comfort and encouragement were very pleasant. With the last breath, and a great joy, he asked: Who are you ?, why do you want to do good to me? Guests wise answer: We are the inhabitants of Heaven thanks to your help has brought us to the Sanctity. We come to thank you, and help you to cross the line of eternity and save you from this miserable place, brings you joy in the Holy City.
Listening to it is a smile plastered on her face dying. His eyes were closed and he fell asleep in the peace of God. His soul, in a pure state as doves, presented before the God of God, encounter many defenders and supporters as much as souls who have was helping before, and he deserves the glory, he entered the victory, accompanied by the welcome and blessing of those he has saved of Purgatory. May we, someday, memiiiki the same happiness. The souls that have been saved by the prayers we are very grateful ,: they will help in our life to come. It is felt at all. Then earnestly I counsel so that you can experience yourself this. They really helped us. They know our needs and give you a lot of grace and blessing for us.
Maria Simrna, I think of the story about the "good thief" who was crucified beside Jesus when. I wonder what he did for Jesus, to Jesus promised on that day and the next he would be with Jesus is the kingdom of God?
He humbly accepts his suffering and acknowledge kesalahanrya and said it was not fair. He suggested that another thief to accept Jesus as savior. He felt shy and fear of God, it means that in carrying out actions that genuine humility of heart.
Another example of Maria Simma is good enough to show how a good deed can forgive the sins committed for life.
Let us hear the story of Maria Simma.
Maria Simma know a young man from the 20s in the next village. The young people of this village hit by a very severe snow avalanches and killing large numbers of people.
One night, a young man is in his parents' house when he heard the snow beside the ruins of his house. He heard the screams were loud, heart-wrenching screams. Help us, We stuck under the snow! He immediately jumped out of bed and ran down the stairs to help those people.
But her mother, who also heard the cries for help that prevent him, and his mother blocking the front door and said: "No, let other people are going to help them, not us! It's too dangerous out there, I do not want anyone to die again! "
But the man, because touched and pity by screams earlier, wanted to go help those people. He pushed her aside and said, "Mom let me go help him, I could not bear to let them die like that! He intends to want to help, but the middle of the road, he himself struck down by the snow avalanches to death.
Three days after his death, he came to see me at night, and said: "Please do three times the Mass for me. If you do it the Holy Mass, I can be released from Purgatory".
Maria Simma then go tell her family and friends, and they get surprised to know that only three times Holy Mass dad he can be taken out of Purgatory.
His friends said to me: Oh I do not: going to want to be like him at the time of death, if only you knew all the bad behavior. "But this young man explained to me: you know, I have done an act of genuine love to give up my life for those people. Thank you for God has welcomed me so quickly into Heaven. Yes, sincerity overcome many sins ..... With this love, show us that sincerity, or the act of love that is given free of only, has been sufficient to purify these young people from a life that is ugly. And Allah has given an opportunity to do a special love this. Maria Simma adding that this young man probably would not have another chance to present the act of love for it, and possibly she will be ugly. God in his mercy, bring him to a particular moment in which he is present before God as he is the most beautiful, purest, because the work of this love.
It is very important that whenever and wherever particular when we can help people who are receiving the disaster, or when the death of us, to neglect yourself for the sake of God's will.
Maria Simma also told me about a mother with four children who have died. Instead he blasphemous or blame, but this woman prayed to God: I accept death, as long as it is already a will, and I submit my life in your hand. I rnempercayakan my children to You and I know that you will keep them. Maria Simma said that because of his belief (faith) which is great to God, this woman went straight to Heaven, and spared from Purgatory.
Then indeed that: love, sincerity and self-denial for the sake of Allah, are the three keys to go directly to Heaven.
Maria Simma, can you tell us, the most effective way to help release the souls of Fire Perryucian?
The best way is the Holy Mass.
Why the Mass?
Because there, it is Christ himself who gave Himself for love, for us. The offering of Christ to God that which is most beautiful offerings.
Imam is the representative of God, but the God who dedicated and sacrificed Himself for us. Effectiveness Holy Mass during his lifetime. If they follow the Holy Mass and prayed with all his heart, and they followed the Holy Mass on the days according to the time they had, then they can take advantage of the Holy Mass held for them later. Here is also true that a person will reap what he reaps its own. A soul in Purgatory can be seen clearly on the day of his funeral if we really pray for him or if we show that we are present there. The poor souls say that tears are not good for them, only prayers are good.
Often they complain that people go to a funeral without reciting one doapun to God, but he actually shed a lot of tears. It is not useful. About Holy Mass I will give you a good example given by the Cure of Arts to the people. He said to them: 'My children, there is a good priest and was not happy to lose a friend who dfa love, then he prayed a lot as a sacrifice for the soul "." One day the angel tells him that his friend IIU was on Fire purification and great suffering. The good priest who believes that he can do even more than just a holy sacrifice offered in the Holy Mass for the dear friend who had died. At the time of concentration he held the Host between his fingers and said: "Father, Eternal Holy, let us exchange belong to you holding my friend in Purgatory, and I held Tubun your Son in tanqanku. Father 'good of Thee , lift my friend and I dedicate your Son to You and all merits of His death and His passion ".
This request is answered. And indeed when he raised the Host, he saw a luminous soul with noble friend, ascended to heaven. Turns out God had accepted the request.
"My children", if we want to raise a soul we love in Purgatory, let us do the same thing: let us offer to God, through the Holy Sacrifice of His Beloved Son, with all the services of suffering and death. God will not reject our request ".
There is another powerful way to help the poor souls: offerings of our suffering, our penance, such as fasting, self-denial and so on, and of course the sufferings that are undesirable, for example, illness or sorrow. Maria Simma, you have repeatedly asked to suffer for the souls of the poor, in order to liberate them.
Can you tell me what you have experienced and you do during those moments?
The first, a soul asked me to suffer in my body for three hours for women. Then after that I could work again as usual. I said to myself: "If it's only for three hours, I want to do".
For three hours I felt as if it lasted for three days, where it was very painful. But in the end, I looked at my watch, I realized that it only lasted for three hours.
Soul said to me that by accepting suffering with compassion seIama three hours, I had saved her twenty years of residence in the Fire Penyudan.
Why only suffered for three hours to make up for 20 years in Purgatory? What can your suffering worth more?
It was because of the suffering in this world do not have the same value (with the suffering in Purgatory). In the world, if we suffer, we can grow in our love, we can obtain services, where this does not apply to the suffering in Purgatory.
All of this is to raise the spirit because it gives tremendous meaning to our suffering, suffering which is then presented, either consciously or not, even the smallest sacrifice we can do, suffering or pain, sorrow, disappointment. If we accept it with sincere, then the sufferings it has a power that is invisible to help souls. The best thing we have to do, so Maria Simma said, is to unite our sufferings with the sufferings of Jesus, to put it through the hands of Mary.
Our Lady knows well how to use it, because often we do not know the most important needs around us. And all of this by the Virgin Mary will be returned to us at our death. Now you know that the sufferings of this will be offered our most precious treasure in the world there. We have to remind others about it and encourage each others when we suffer.
Another very effective way, Maria Simma said, is a station-stations of the Way of the Cross, as with contemplate the sufferings of the Lord Jesus, then little by little we will be loathe to sin, and longed for salvation for everyone.
And this trend brings great healing for the souls in Purgatory. Way of the Cross also mendorang us to regret, "" we will seqera sorry if sin. "This is a very help souls in Purgatory is to align the rosary, 20 events, for those who die. Through the rosary, many souls have been lifted from Purgatory every year.
That prayer should be recited here so that the Mother of God who comes to Purgatory to lift it, it was so beautiful, because the souls in Purgatory refer to Mary as the "Mother of Mercy"
The souls were also told Maria Simma that indulgence has incalculable value for their rescue.
Cruel if we do not use this wealth, which was recommended by the Church for the sake of souls. On the issue of indulgences was too long if I have outlined here but I can show you will be writing a very good created by Pope Paul VI in 1968 on the matter. You can ask your pastor about it or look at bookstores spiritual. We can say that the main ways to help the souls in Purgatory is prayer in general, all kinds of prayer. Now I will give you the testimony of Hermann Cohen, a Jewish artist who entered into the Catholic religion in 1864 and he was very respectful of the Holy Eucharist. He left the bustle of this world and entered a religious order very hard. There he worshiped the Blessed Sacrament whom he respected. During worship, he begged God to convert his mother whom he loved.
Then his mother died before they could repent and convert to Catholicism. Then Hermann, which is very sad, prostrate before the Blessed Sacrament. With sadness he said: "God, I owe everything to You" "But, if I have rejected you?
My youth, my imagination in the world, well-being, happiness of a family, a place to rest is pretty good, everything I give, when you called me.
