In reading the books of the divine
messages and knowing that the
author, Mrs. Vassula Ryden, is a
daughter of the Greek Orthodox
Church, I was very impressed to find
in them a fidelity and, I am firmly
convinced, an absolute fidelity to
all the revealed truths as taught and
expounded by the Catholic Church.
According to my humble but firm
conviction, there is no error and there
have never been any errors, either in
the first books
of Vassula nor
in those that
f o l l o w e d .
There is no
error when
Vassula speaks about Christ calling
him Abba or Jahweh, neither when
she says that Christ will come in the
world to bring a period of His peace,
because it has to do with the historical
return of Christ into thisworld through
His Church, who during that period of
Peace will be renewed; and then, the
presence of Christ will be even more
visible to all mankind in this world, as
the Holy Virgin and Queen of Prophets
was saying at Fatima, and as she is still
prophecying now in Medjugorje.
Therefore, I unite myself to all those
Catholic bishops and theologians that
defend the authenticity and sincere
veracity of Vassula Ryden, seer and
mystic, one of the greatest of our
times.

Bishop of Jamshedpur, India
I have read all the True Life In God
books and meditated on their
contents. I truly believe that the
books contain the Divine Dialogue of
the Holy Trinity,
Our Lady and
the Angels with
h u m a n k i n d
through Vassula
Rydén. I have
not found
anything objectionable and anything
contrary to the Church’s authentic
authority on faith and morals.
Reading these books and meditating
on the contents are spiritually
beneficial to all. I recommend these
books to every Christian.
Cardinal Mar
Nasrallah Peter
Sfeir, Maronite
Patriarch of Antioch.
From an address
to True Life in God
pilgrims in 2005.
Ibelieve that some of you have met
Maronites in various countries,
whether in Brazil, Australia, Canada,
the United States or Venezuela. We
are longing like you for this unity
wanted by our Lord Jesus Christ when
he said, “ be one as I and You my
Father are one ”.
We know that Mrs. Vassula has come
before to Lebanon and is seeking to
achieve this unity.
We know as well that she has presented
her writings and thoughts to the
Apostolic Chair who published some
writings concerning this subject. We
intend that our faith be one in Jesus
Christ who is our Redeemer and Saviour.
If there were disagreements that
happened throughout history for
whatever reasons and purposes, we
ask God to forgive us all our offenses
and to bring us back to unity. This
unity is our testimony to those who do
not believe in Christ, as any divisions
among us cannot generate belief,
which is exactly what Our Lord Jesus
Christ already pointed out.
We pray with you for the sake of
this unity, may God fulfill it in the
image and on the date he deems
appropriate.
I ask God to open up the right paths
for you and for us, so that we gain His
approval, and so that we are able to
testify totheworldatestimonyofunity.
Cardinal Franjo
Kuharic
Archbishop of Zagreb
February 1995
Vassula travels the world
evangelizing for Christian unity;
obedience to the Pope; veneration of
the Eucharist; devotion to the Sacred
Heart of Jesus; and especially, a Gospel
morality of life; as well as for deep
religious conversion of the world.
Vassula has met with the Pope,
with cardinals and with bishops
around the world. This is a matter
of private revelation and we allow
her to speak because what she
says conforms to Gospel truth.
I recommend
these books to
every Christian
Fr Edward D. O'Connor
Professor of Theology at Notre Dame University, December 1999
I would like to say that reading her messages puts me in a spirit of prayer. I find
myself quite convinced that Jesus is indeed speaking through them. To that,
I would like to add that, as a professional theologian, I have always been watch-
ing to see if these messages diverge in any way from the teaching of the Church.
Never have I found any doctrinal error in them. That is very impressive. For a lay
person, with no theological training, without even any serious catechetical in-
struction, to write so many volumes about some of the profoundest spiritual mat-
ters, and never make a mis-step, is an extraordinary achievement. It is a powerful
confirmation that it is indeed the Lord himself who is the source of these writings.
