In defence of the Little Pebble.

It has happened again as many times before, the Little Pebble has been betrayed.

Some of his closest followers have made a judgement against him, and to my way of thinking it is not a judgement that they are entitled to make. Only the church commission is empowered to make such a judgement. The commission set up some years ago to look into the claims of the Little Pebble has not even interviewed the people concerned with the mission of the Little Pebble. So not even the commission is ready to make a judgement. It is church law that individuals or groups may not make a judgement while the commission is in progress and therefore the individuals that signed the letter ‘time to leave’ have broken church law.

The letter is opened with ‘without prejudice’ and that may have been their intent, but the actions that have been taken are prejudicial. The actions have been to separate themselves from the prophet of God and from the Order of St Charbel and they have broken their vows of obedience to their superiors.

The actions that have been taken by some of the members have been terribly deceitful as only two days before the ‘time to leave’ bombshell one of the members sat at the table of the ‘Little Pebble’ ate with him and embraced him with a kiss, while all the while and for many months prior to this day he was planning action to denounce the ‘Little Pebble’ how like the action of Judas in the time of Our Lord Jesus. It reminds me so much of the Last Supper that it makes my hair stand on end.

I have compassion and understanding of some of the ‘weak Souls’ that are part of this group, at least they have made their views known through their grumbling and in sharing their doubts openly for a number of years, but some of the family members have been truly deceitful in their words and actions for many months. They have lived a double life; they have been hypocritical in the extreme. These family members have been living a pretend life in my presence, saying one thing and believing and acting in a contrary manor. They have secretly plotted and schemed against the Little Pebble while pretending to pray and offer sacrifice for the success of his mission.

The group even in their letter of ‘time to leave’ admit and I will use their words ‘when we all started in your apostolate and came to know of you, it was truly the most beautiful time of our spiritual lives’.  I must remind those members the words Our Lord used to discern whether a person is good or bad, He said, “By their fruits you will know them”. The fruit in this case was their own lives, and yet they have denounced the Little Pebble who lived then as he lives now. I ask the question who has sinned?

No doubt at the time Judas justified his actions to himself, but one cannot commit a sin so as to cause a good. Goodness comes only from good and Holy actions.

Just as Judas could have asked for forgiveness from Our Lord, and would have received it even for his grave sin, there is time and there is a willingness from the Little Pebble and also of myself to forgive these grave injustices that have been committed.
