St. Joseph and Angels

St. Joseph Speaks

St. Joseph spoke in soft and eloquent voice.  God’s natural presence is the Church in the world.  His natural presence in the world was foretold in genesis itself.  As he was speaking, he took the angels’ attention to the time of his Nazareth life in the Holy family and he explained the revelation given to him of the re-establishment of Father’s presence on earth.  It all began with the annunciation of Incarnation through Immaculate Conception of Mary.  When the fallen sin of first family in the genesis occurred, which brought the sufferings and death onto the world, when humanity fell into the hands of merciless enemy’s tactics, then the human lost the Holy Spirit within them, they became a mortal being.  In addition, the sins multiplied and removed them from the presence of God; Fear and guilt creeped within them; because of fear and guilt, they were hiding between the trees and leaves, when they heard the voice of God. Then the Father, fore told the plan of salvation.  In the salvation plan, He would become a child in a virgin immaculate womb to combat the enemy’s tactics and the death.  He foretold the family that would bring the savior into the world, the family who would be lead by the Holy Spirit that would help the creator in redeeming the world.  Unworthy servant as I was, when I was to become the husband of Virgin Mary, when I was troubled at the news of the Incarnation, unbelief took over me.  Sleepless nights, repeated nightmares bombarded my conscience in accepting Mary.  Then came the divine revelation from the holy Angel in my dream of Father’s salvation plan.  The Church began then, the redemptive family, Immaculate Mary in obedience submission to Holy Spirit brought forth the new creation our Lord Jesus Christ, for whom I was blessed to be the guardian. In the revelation from angel, it was so clear to my being, that Jesus, the new Adam, the creator himself becoming the creation, from the love of the Father, to recreate the relationship and fellowship of the Holy Spirit among the men.  In Him, the image of the Holy Trinity rested in the entirety of Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, as He came from the Father, He was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and being the Son the of God as Father’s word, the word of God became flesh to dwell among us. By this the Holy Trinity presence was reestablished in the world as the orgin of the redemption.  Angels were edified and thrilled by his testimony of the beginning of the Church, which were fore told in genesis and was reinforced to the people by the kings and prophets, fulfilled in Jesus Christ.  St. Joseph also guided them through the tour around Vatican.  Then the Church bells were ringing in rounds indicating the time for St. Joseph to join the faithful in the Holy Mass, as it is his routine, as angels went in a state of contemplation on God’s presence in Nazareth Joseph.
