He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and Fire.
10 And the people asked him, saying: What then shall we do?
The privilege of the prophets is to make people open their hearts to the word of God. I touch the heart that is open awaiting my coming, in the same way that the sun touches with its stimulating rays, warmth and life the flower that opens before his presence. The word of God must be transmitted by human beings, since God has revealed it to his prophets. Because this is divine word, it carries the anointment of the Holy Spirit and the power to touch the heart. The objective of the Divine Word is to change the erroneous ideologies that impede the closeness to God; this is why it is revealed first to the prophets, who have left their testimony in the Holy Scriptures. I have come to perfect the testimony of the prophets with my own words contained in the Gospels. The Holy Spirit has come also to give His Testimony, in order to ratify the Testimony of God the Father through the prophets, my Testimony as the Incarnate Word of God, and to establish this Word in every heart. If today you hear the Word of God, harden not your heart. The Testimony of the Holy Spirit is that fire of faith that burns in the heart, moving the soul to live according to the Holy Word of God. For this reason, the Spirit is that force that moves the soul to listen, it is the same Power of God in action, changing and purifying with the Divine Wisdom. Happy and blessed are those who take my words to their hearts and decide to live by them, their way is full of my light, their journey receives my support, their works are sanctified by their trust in me and their testimonies are an echo to my Word.
