I am reading a book called "The Way of Divine Love" by Sister Josefa Menendez. I'm only about 10 pages into the intro so far but it's freaking me out. It talks about the "victims" that Jesus chooses to suffer with him for the eternal pain he feels because he is rejected by sinners and to help with the promise to cancel out their sins. These chosen, but also highly willing victims for Jesus, endure the suffering to compensate for thousands or millions of sinning souls who are in darkness.
As if that wasn't motivation enough to sleep in on Sunday lest you be victimized, apparently the Devil is told to have at these victims and God allows them to suffer more punishment from the Devil than he would a normal person. This is just to prove that they will never succumb to the Devil no matter what they suffer.
I'm only 10 pages in like I said but I think they are implying it ends by the victims outer shell being stripped away and the tenderized meaty bits being ingested by Jesus forever and ever, ah men. Also, according to this book, I am so going to hell for that comment.
I think I will continue reading out of curiosity and with an open mind. I would have to say though that at least the introduction to the book is a little heavy on the hell fire and damnation cow bell.
