October 1, 1981 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje
Are all religions the same? “Members of all faiths are equal before God. God rules over each faith just like a sovereign over his kingdom. In the world, all religions are not the same because all people have not complied with the commandments of God. They reject and disparage them.” Are all churches the same? “In some, one prays to God more. In others, less. That depends on the priests who motivate others to pray. That also depends on the power which they have.” Why are there so many apparitions, which repeat themselves so many times? Why does the Blessed Virgin appear to children who do not follow the way of God? “I appear to you often and in every place. To others, I appear from time to time and briefly. They do not follow yet, completely the way of God. They are not aware of the gift which He has made them, that no one deserves. With time, they also will come to follow the right way.” (Thursday, October 1, 1981)
