Apparently "jesus" Reads Blogs!

The Maria Divine Mercy message of Friday, May 24, 2013 makes direct reference to the article I wrote HERE that the MDM messages are fomenting schism. Are they really trying to sell the idea that Jesus reads blogs?  Dear Catholics, these messages are fake and designed to promote some sort of schism that will lead you away from the true Holy Catholic Church founded by Jesus Himself, about which He said that the very gates of helll shall not prevail against it.  Here is the text of MDM's  message:

Those who scream at My Word in anger and declare that It comes from Satan will reside with the beast for eternity

Friday, May 24th, 2013

My dearly beloved daughter, everywhere My Voice is heard, in every place, and in every temple dedicated to the adoration of God, there will be disruption. While many will pay homage to Me, to My Teachings, to My Church, when they hear My Voice, as It commands attention now, they will cover their ears.
My Voice will fall on deaf and stubborn souls. My Voice, My Word and My Call will be angrily rejected and spit out, as I Am persecuted for the last time on Earth. This is the final calling to draw God’s children into My Bosom, before My Second Coming and yet, many people, confused by the lies spread by demons, will turn away and reject My Mercy.
I will once again be rejected by those who reside in the House of God, the priests and all those who do not accept the Truth. The final insult to My Name will be seen by all of you shortly. Those of you who cover your eyes and walk around with blindfolds on your eyes will, eventually, see the Truth as it is being given to you at this time.
I cannot create schism within My Church, for then I would be denying Myself. My Body is the Church and It can never die, but It will be those within it, who will reject Me. Just as I was rejected the first time, they will, this time, try to destroy Me, before I come to bring the final salvation promised to man.
Man is weak. Man is ignorant and is not worthy of My Mercy. Man is stubborn. Man was given the Truth during My Time on earth, but still does not understand My Promise. My Return, in the Second Coming will be precipitated by the rejection of My final prophet. The prophet which has been sent to give you the final Word of God in order to prepare your souls, will suffer harshly. It is Me, Jesus Christ, you slander when you mock My Holy Word given to God’s prophet.  It is the Word of God, which is being given to prepare you for the battle with the antichrist, which you reject. By doing so, you destroy souls. You prevent these souls from entering My Paradise.
Those who say evil things about My Messages cannot justify their resentment, their anger or their logic, for they are full of error, which is born of the sin of pride. Soon the Truth will be difficult to discern from the lies by the new world organisation, which will present the pagan new world religion.
If you do not listen to Me now, you will be bullied into accept this evil substitute. It will be dressed in a glittering, gold exterior. It will impress even the most devout amongst you and it will twist your allegiance to Me and will be admired by all. This is the religion which will convert atheists into believing in a great lie. No peace will come to those who follow this pagan abomination. Fear and loathing for each other will be manifested, where brother will fight brother and where the human race will be divided into two. One half will accept the twisted truth of this new world religion, which will be presided over by many churches, many faiths, as well as a large part of the Catholic Church. The other half will consist of those who truly love Me and who will remain faithful to the Truth.
When you do not accept the Truth – the Truth contained in the Holy Bible – you will live a lie. You will have no love left in your soul for Me if you accept the lies which will be fed to you.
And while My Word may seem like heresy today, as it was during My times on Earth, many of you will devour these Messages when you are starved of the Truth, when the antichrist will control your nations. You will crawl on your stomachs and scream out for Me. You, who blasphemed against Me, will want to cut out your tongues, for you will realise then how your words have insulted Me. I await this day patiently, but should you stand before Me and prevent Me from reaching out to souls, I will cut you down. Should you continue to blaspheme against Me, by declaring My Messages to be the work of the devil, then you will never be forgiven. For this is the greatest sin against God.
Remember that I come to God’s children this final time in order to fulfil My Father’s Covenant. His Will, can now be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Not one   amongst you can stop this from happening. Not one amongst you, though some of you hate Me, can prevent My Second Coming. Those who scream at My Word in anger and declare that it comes from Satan will reside with the beast for eternity.
Your Jesus

MDM WARNING By The Archbishop of Brisbane

Archbishop Coleridge of Brisbane in Australia has put out a letter warning Catholics against the false messages of MDM:

"To the clergy, religious and lay faithful of the Archdiocese of Brisbane,

ALLEGED PRIVATE REVELATIONS

"Recently it has been brought to my notice that messages- supposedly delivered by Christ to a woman who goes by the name of Maria Divine Mercy- have been circulating in the Archdiocese of Brisbane.

"I have examined some of these messages and Found them to be patently fraudulent And corrosive of true Christian faith as the Catholic Church teaches it. The alleged recipient of the messages operates anonymously and refuses to identify and present herself to local Church authority for a theological examination of the content of her messages.

"The messages contain certain theological and historical errors some of which fall Within the category of bogus millenarianism, and they are more likely to provoke fear rather than the peace of the Spirit. They play on elements of the Catholic faith only to undermine it at it's core. Moreover, they are outrageous in their claims against Pope Francis. Therefore, the messages of Maria Divine Mercy are not to be taken seriously, discussed or distributed within the Archdiocese of Brisbane."

"The Most Reverend Mark Coleridge

MDM Warning: Austrian Bishop Warns Catholics

Below is a German to English translation of an evaluation of the MDM messages by Bishop Andreas Laun, Auxiliary Bishop of Salzburg. The translation is not excellent, but Bishop Laun's learned opinion of the MDM messages is clear:

July 2, 2012, 11:59 AM
Warning of the 'warning'

Some messages in the "warning" do not correspond with the teachings  of the Church, such as talk of "the Christian churches." A plain text of Bishop Andreas Laun about a controversial private revelation

Salzburg (kath.net / Church of Today)

Days ago I received a call from a man with the question of what to make of "The Warning". I replied "I can not say anything, I do not know what you're talking about!" At his insistence, I had a look at the first pages of the "Warning" on the Internet .. But as for the content, my verdict is: "warning before the warning!"

And this for the following reasons: The woman who get these "messages" claims have not been certified by heaven, as for example in Fatima through the miracle of the sun was the case, and other private revelations by other characters. And: Some things in the "warning" do not correspond to the teaching of the Church, such as talk of "the Christian churches."

According to Catholic teaching, only the Catholic and the Orthodox community are a "church," all other "churches" are only "Christian communities". - That "God Father" of the "Hierarchies of Heaven" will fight the battle of Armageddon, tastes like "Lord of the Rings" and not by a private revelation that will recognize the church! Puzzling is the message of Jesus, that he is now more than twice as heavy suffering than during his Passion - the same Jesus of the Church teaches that it sits "at the right hand of the Father"?

Ridiculous is the message that the "preparations" for the second Coming of Jesus were "in full swing - as if it would be a campaign or a great journey that Jesus only should  "prepare “!   In addition, there are a number of messages such as:  who is faithful, will go to heaven!  Or that we have free will, that God loves us even in difficult times, that the Church never "go under" and is another of this kind! Louder "messages" that Catholics have known for a long time! The author of this "messages"  knows how to accommodate over and over again allusions to biblical texts in their messages and uses particularly the Book of Revelation, which is particularly well suited to obscure content and at the same time to give them a bit of the Bible's authority. Of course, serves "the warning" and the fear-mongering!

That we have reason to be worried regarding all that the future may bring, we know from revelation, but to a great extent it is enough even to read the daily newspapers! And so on! The truth in these "warnings" we know already, the other we can safely ignore.  So warning before the warning!

She could confuse some, they change the subject from him to what God really wants from them, others just "steal" time, then missing them somewhere! Moreover, if God is trying to tell us something important currently, he has ways and means to do it so that we also learn it without guessing games and hide-and-seeks with cleverly laid "tracks".   And finally: If I wanted I could also invent such "revelations" every day!

ORIGINAL UNTRANSLATED  ARTICLE:

Manches in der „Warnung“ entspricht nicht der Lehre der Kirche wie z.B. die Rede von „den christlichen Kirchen“. Ein Klartext von Bischof Andreas Laun zu einer nicht unumstrittenen Privatoffenbarung

Salzburg (kath.net/KircheHeute)
Vor Tagen erhielt ich den Anruf eines Mannes mit der Frage, was von „Der Warnung“ zu halten sei. Ich antwortete „Ich kann nichts sagen, ich weiß nicht, wovon Sie sprechen!“ Auf sein Drängen hin sah ich mir dann die ersten Seiten der „Warnung“ im Internet an.. Was aber den Inhalt betrifft, lautet mein Urteil: „Warnung vor der Warnung!“

Und dies aus folgenden Gründen: Die Frau, die diese „Botschaften“ behauptet zu erhalten, ist unbekannt nicht vom Himmel beglaubigt, wie dies in Fatima z.B. durch das Sonnenwunder der Fall war und bei anderen Privatoffenbarungen durch andere Zeichen. Und: Manches in der „Warnung“ entspricht nicht der Lehre der Kirche wie z.B. die Rede von „den christlichen Kirchen“.

Nach katholischer Lehre sind nur die katholische und die orthodoxe Gemeinschaft eine „Kirche“, alle anderen „Kirchen“ sind nur „christliche Gemeinschaften“. - Dass „Gott Vater“ mit den „Hierarchien des Himmels“ die Schlacht von Armageddon schlagen werde, schmeckt nach „Herr der Ringe“ und nicht nach einer Privat-Offenbarung, die die Kirche anerkennen wird! Abstrus ist die Mitteilung Jesu, dass er jetzt mehr, sogar doppelt so schwer leide als im Laufe seiner Passion – derselbe Jesus, von dem die Kirche lehrt, dass er „zur Rechten des Vaters“ sitzt?

Lächerlich ist die Botschaft, die „Vorbereitungen“ für das 2. Kommen Jesu seien „in vollem Gange – als ob es sich um einen Feldzug oder eine große Reise handeln würde, die Jesus erst „vorbereiten“ müsste! Zudem gibt es eine Reihe von „No-na“ Botschaften wie etwa: Wer treu ist, kommt in den Himmel! Oder dass wir einen freien Willen haben, dass Gott uns auch in schweren Zeiten liebt, dass die Kirche niemals „untergehen“ wird und anderes dieser Art! Lauter „Botschaften“, die ein Katholik längst weiß! Die Verfasserin dieser „Botschaften“ versteht es, immer wieder Anspielungen an biblische Texte in ihren Botschaften unterzubringen und bedient sich dabei besonders der Offenbarung des Johannes, die sich besonders gut eignet, Inhalte zu vernebeln und ihnen zugleich ein wenig die Autorität der Bibel zu geben. Natürlich bedient sich „die Warnung“ auch der Angst-Mache!

Dass wir Grund haben, besorgt zu sein bezüglich all dessen, was die Zukunft bringen mag, wissen wir aus der Offenbarung, aber weitgehend genügt es sogar, die täglichen Zeitungen zu lesen! Und so weiter! Das Wahre in diesen „Warnungen“ wissen wir ohnehin, das Andere können wir getrost ignorieren. Also: Warnung vor der Warnung!

Sie könnte manche verwirren, sie ablenken von dem, was Gott wirklich von ihnen will, Anderen nur „die Zeit stehlen“, die ihnen dann irgendwo fehlt! Im Übrigen: Wenn Gott uns etwas aktuell Wichtiges mitteilen will, hat er Mittel und Wege es so zu tun, dass wir es auch erfahren ohne Rate- und Versteck-Spiele mit geschickt gelegten „Spuren“. Und zuletzt: Wenn ich wollte, solche „Offenbarungen“ könnte ich jeden Tag auch erfinden!

Message to MDM Followers

Message to MDM followers: On late May 9th on the "Jesus to Mankind" Facebook page I posted an article presenting the full text, in English and Slovakian, of the Slovakian Conference of Bishops letter CONDEMNING the MDM messages. The Bishop even called the messages heretical. The MDM leaders reacted by DELETING my post entirely and blocking me from ever posting again on their page. They did this so that YOU, their follower, CANNOT READ THE NEGATIVE OPINION OF MDM FROM THE SLOVAKIAN BISHOPS. 

On that same day I also posted the Bishops' letter on this blog and it was also posted on the "Maria Divine Mercy-True or False?" Facebook page.

Amazingly enough, two days later on May 12 another "message from jesus" was published by MDM dated May 10. "Jesus" says, "Those who have not been given My Holy Word,INCLUDING THOSE COUNTRIES WHERE I AM CONDEMNED, are the first souls I must reach out to."

Do you think this is just a coincidence? This is not all.

This is proof these messages are fake because the Slovakian Bishops' Conference letter condemning the messages from MDM was published by the bishops SIX MONTHS AGO on November 12, 2012! Why didn't Jesus mention it back then? Why did he suddenly and "coincidentally" mention it two days after this blog and the Facebook Page "Maria Divine Mercy - True or False?" posted the letter for all to see?

Please ask yourself why they would hide this information from you and what they are really up to. I pray for you in my daily rosaries. May God bless you!

 Maria Divine Mercy, Schism! A Deception of Satan!

Depictions of Jesus the Good Shepherd

Jesus carrying a BLACK sheep!

     

Pectoral Cross Controversy: It's Not an Osiris Skeleton!!!

Another issue from the false MDM websites that has come to my attention. People on that site are actually saying that the pectoral cross Pope Francis has worn since his days as a Bishop and will continue to wear throughout his papacy IS AN IMAGE OF OSIRIS THE GOD OF THE DEAD LEADING HIS SHEEP LIKE DEAD FOLLOWERS. No, I'm not joking. They really believe this.  I advise the MDM followers and all others who want to see the truth for themselves to view this close-up image of the actual pectoral cross he is wearing:

Yes, it is an image of CHRIST THE GOOD SHEPHERD carrying a tired lamb across His shoulders as He leads the flock of the faithful to heaven.

If you are still critical of the details, click THIS LINK view the centuries of depictions of Jesus the Good Shepherd. There is no rule about how ancient to modern artists can interpret this design. Nobody really ever saw Jesus physically carrying a sheep. Depictions of Jesus the Good Shepherd Over Centuries

MDM Condemned as HERETICAL by Slovakian Conference of Bishops

The Slovakian Conference of Bishops have issued a letter warning the faithful to stay away from the false messages put out by supposedly Irish seer Maria Divine Mercy and through her organization's website "The Warning Second Coming." Below is the text of the letter in English translated on an online translator. Although this translation isn't perfect, it is easy to see that the bishops are warning the faithful to stay away from the MDM messages completely. HERE is the original, untranslated letter.

 ENGLISH TRANSLATION:

Bishop Sečka to spread the alleged Greater warning of Jesus Christ
P: 3, 21 11th 2012 12:44, DOM

Spis Chapter 21 November (ZENIT) - Spis Bishop Mons. Stephen Sečka issued on the basis of reports of priests and believers phone calls from the Internet to disseminate data big warning of Jesus Christ. On this occasion, issued an opinion that we bring in full. 

Dear Brothers and Sisters, 

I learned that in some parishes is very spread messages about the so-called Great Day of God's warnings, resulting from the alleged private revelations of an Irish visionaries. These messages are distributed via the internet. I have found that it is a heretical teachings, which is not in accordance with the teachings of the Catholic Church and is showing signs of sectarianism. This whole doctrine is indeed poprepletaná prayers for God's mercy and calls for confession, as well as the Catholic Church teaches, but quotations from Scripture are commented and explained arbitrary and contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church. Similar tendencies were already in the early Church, therefore St.. Apostle Peter wrote: "Above all, you should know that no prophecy of Scripture does not allow private interpretation" (2 Peter 1: 20). 

After seeing this website I also found that believers are encouraged to have already bought so. "Seal of the living God" to be sanctified by a priest. I note that no priest faithful to Christ and his Church must cooperate in this matter, it would be guilty of transgressions against the faith and his office. For anyone who will disseminate these messages are delusional enough to apply strictly the words of Scripture, written by St. Apostle Paul to the Galatians: 

"I marvel that from him that called you into the grace of Christ are under way quickly to another gospel. Ono nor other, unless there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But if we have preached unto you we, or an angel from heaven any other gospel than we have preached unto you, let him be accursed! As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone preaches to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed! I can now lean people or God? Or trying to please men? If I yet pleased men, I would not be Christ's servant. "(Gal 1, 6-9). 

All believers, who perhaps out of ignorance began to believe the messages mentioned, and please urge them to leave these heretical teachings and not spread them. 

On this matter, I was obliged, in order to highlight the purity of Catholic faith, obedience and unity with the Holy Father, and for the sake of salvation of your souls.

Biskup Sečka k šíreniu údajného Veľkého varovania Ježiša Krista
P:3, 21. 11. 2012 12:44, DOM

Spisšká Kapitula 21. novembra (TK KBS) - Spišská biskup Mons. Štefan Sečka vydal na základe hlásenia kňazov a telefonátov od veriacich, že internetom sa šíri údajné Veľké varovanie Ježiša Krista. Pri tejto príležitosti vydal stanovisko, ktoré prinášame v plnom znení.

Drahí bratia a sestry!

Dozvedel som sa, že v niektorých farnostiach sa veľmi rozšírili posolstvá o takzvanom dni Božieho Veľkého varovania, ktoré vyplývajú z údajných súkromných zjavení nejakej írskej vizionárky. Tieto posolstvá sa rozširujú prostredníctvom internetu. Zistil som, že ide o bludnú náuku, ktorá nie je v súlade s učením Katolíckej cirkvi a vykazuje známky sektárstva. Celá táto náuka je síce poprepletaná modlitbami k Božiemu milosrdenstvu a výzvami k svätej spovedi tak, ako to učí aj Katolícka cirkev, avšak citáty zo Svätého písma sú komentované a vysvetľované svojvoľne a v rozpore s učením Katolíckej cirkvi. Podobné tendencie boli už v prvotnej Cirkvi, preto sv. Peter apoštol napísal: „Predovšetkým však vedzte, že nijaké proroctvo v Písme nepripúšťa súkromný výklad“ (2Pt 1, 20).

Po zhliadnutí tejto internetovej stránky som tiež zistil, že veriaci sú nabádaní, aby si zaobstarali tzv. „pečať živého Boha“, ktorá má byť posvätená kňazom. Pripomínam, že žiaden kňaz verný Kristovi a jeho Cirkvi nesmie v tejto veci spolupracovať, lebo by sa dopustil prehrešenia voči viere a svojmu úradu. Na kohokoľvek, kto bude šíriť tieto bludné posolstvá sa vzťahujú dosť prísne slová Svätého písma, ktoré napísal sv. apoštol Pavol Galaťanom:

„Čudujem sa, že od toho, ktorý vás povolal v Kristovej milosti, tak rýchlo prebiehate k inému evanjeliu. Ono ani nie je iné, ibaže sú niektorí, čo vás mätú a chcú prekrútiť Kristovo evanjelium. Ale keby sme vám hlásali my alebo aj anjel z neba iné evanjelium, ako sme vám hlásali, nech je prekliaty! Ako sme už povedali, aj teraz znova hovorím: Ak by vám niekto hlásal iné evanjelium ako to, ktoré ste prijali, nech je prekliaty! Chcem si teraz nakloniť ľudí alebo Boha? Alebo sa usilujem páčiť sa ľuďom? Keby som sa ešte chcel páčiť ľuďom, nebol by som Kristovým služobníkom.“ (Gal 1, 6-9).

Všetkých veriacich, ktorí možno z nevedomosti začali veriť uvedeným posolstvám, prosím a dôrazne žiadam, aby opustili tieto bludné náuky a nešírili ich.

Na túto záležitosť som bol povinný upozorniť v záujme čistoty katolíckej viery, poslušnosti a jednoty so Svätým Otcom, ako aj v záujme spásy vašich duší.

V Pánu oddaný + Štefan Sečka, spišský biskup

Why Doesn't Pope Francis Administer Communion to Crowds?

Why Pope Francis Doesn't Give Communion

Because, he says, unrepentant public sinners could slip in among the faithful, and he does not want to back up their hypocrisy. The case of Catholic politicians who support abortion

by Sandro Magister





ROME, May 9, 2013 – There is one particular in the Masses celebrated by Pope Francis that raises questions that have so far gone unanswered.

At the moment of communion, pope Jorge Mario Bergoglio does not administer it himself, but allows others to give the consecrated host to the faithful. He sits down and waits for the distribution of the sacrament to be completed.

The exceptions are very few. At solemn Masses the pope, before sitting down, gives communion to those assisting him at the altar. And at the Mass last Holy Thursday, at the juvenile detention facility of Casal del Marmo, he wanted to give communion himself to the young detainees who approached to receive it.

Bergoglio has given no explicit explanation of this behavior since becoming pope.

But there is one page in a book he published in 2010 that allows one to infer the motives at the origin of this practice.

The book is a collection of conversations with the rabbi of Buenos Aires, Abraham Skorka.

At the end of the chapter dedicated prayer, the then-archbishop Bergoglio says:

"David had been an adulterer and had ordered a murder, and nonetheless we venerate him as a saint because he had the courage to say: 'I have sinned.' He humbled himself before God. One can commit enormous mistakes, but one can also acknowledge them, change one's life and make reparation for what one has done. It is true that among parishioners there are persons who have killed not only intellectually or physically but indirectly, with improper management of capital, paying unjust wages. There are members of charitable organizations who do not pay their employees what they deserve, or make them work off the books. [. . .] With some of them we know their whole résumé, we know that they pass themselves off as Catholics but practice indecent behaviors of which they do not repent. For this reason, on some occasions I do not give communion, I stay back and let the assistants do it, because I do not want these persons to approach me for a photo. One may also deny communion to a known sinner who has not repented, but it is very difficult to prove these things. Receiving communion means receiving the body of the Lord, with the awareness of forming a community. But if a man, rather than uniting the people of God, has devastated the lives of many persons, he cannot receive communion, it would be a total contradiction. Such cases of spiritual hypocrisy present themselves in many who take refuge in the Church and do not live according to the justice that God preaches. And they do not demonstrate repentance. This is what we commonly call leading a double life.”

As can be noted, Bergoglio explained in 2010 his abstaining from giving communion personally with a very practical reason: "I do not want these persons to approach me for a photo."

As an experienced pastor and a good Jesuit, he knew that among those who receive communion there could be unrepentant public sinners who nonetheless professed themselves to be Catholics. He knew that at that point it would be difficult to deny them the sacrament. And he knew the public effects that that communion could have, if received from the hands of the archbishop of the Argentine capital.

One could infer that Bergoglio may sense the same danger as pope, indeed even more so. And for this reason he would be adopting the same prudential conduct: “I do not give communion, I stay back and let the assistants do it.”

The public sins that Bergoglio gave as examples in his conversation with the rabbi are the oppression of the poor and the withholding of just wages from the worker. Two sins traditionally listed among the four that “cry out to heaven for vengeance.”

But the reasoning is the same that in recent years has been applied by other bishops to another sin: public support for pro-abortion laws on the part of politicians who profess themselves to be Catholic.

This latter controversy has had its epicenter in the United States.

In 2004, then-cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, prefect of the congregation for the doctrine of the faith, sent to the episcopal conference of the United States a note with the “general principles” on the question.

The episcopal conference decided to “apply” on a case-by-case basis the principles recalled by Ratzinger, leaving it up to the "individual bishops to make prudent pastoral judgments in [their] own circumstance.”

From Rome, Cardinal Ratzinger accepted this solution and called it “in harmony” with the general principles of his note.

In reality, the bishops of the United States are not unanimous. Some of them, including among the conservatives, like cardinals Francis George and Patrick O'Malley, are reluctant to “make the Eucharist a political battleground.” Others are more intransigent. When the Catholic Joe Biden was chosen as vice-presidential running mate by Barack Obama, the archbishop of Denver at the time, Charles J. Chaput, now in Philadelphia, said that Biden's support for the so-called “right” to abortion was a grave public fault and “I presume that his integrity will lead him to refrain from presenting himself for communion."

The fact remains that last March 19, at the Mass for the inauguration of the pontificate of Francis, vice-president Biden and the leader of the House Democrats, Nancy Pelosi, she too a pro-abortion Catholic, were part of the official delegation of the United States.

And both received communion. But not from the hands of pope Bergoglio, who was seated behind the altar.

Devils Do Pose as Angels of Light!

 When I read this article, it made me think of the Maria Divine Mercy messages, called "Jesus to Mankind" on Facebook, and the website has a different name too. Many MDM apostles ask, "If the messages encourage the rosary, chaplet, mass, adoration, etc., then they CAN'T be bad. Satan wouldn't encourage these things."

The MDM followers are wrong. There are myriad cases where Satan appeared as good to promote bad. Here is a good article on this topic: 

Can evil spirits be good?

April 29, 2013 by Fr. John Bartunek, LC  
Filed under Demonology

Q: Dear Father John, Since bad spirits are very manipulative by nature is it possible for bad spirits to present themselves as good in certain circumstances in order to fulfill their plan and if so, what are some ways to distinguish that representation? 

A: Yes indeed, evil spirits are experts at deception. Our Lord, speaking of the devil, pointed this out: “When he [the devil] tells a lie, he speaks in character, because he is a liar and the father of lies.” And St. Paul states this explicitly: “And no wonder, for even Satan masquerades as an angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14). The modus operandi of demons is deception and dissimulation. For this reason, exorcists are forbidden from engaging in conversation with devils – they may only ask questions necessary for the rite of exorcism itself.
