JUNE 2013

The false private revelation of Shinella Stephens

Last year, a friend of mine wrote to Shane Stephens, the father of alleged mystic, seventeen-year old Shinella Stephens and put to him a couple of questions concerning the paranormal occurrences that were reportedly taking place at their Delhi apartment. Please find below the edited correspondence.

From: G To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Friday, March 30, 2012 10:35 AM Subject: The testimony of your daughter Shinella

Dear Mr. Stephens,One of your friends from Chennai forwarded me the photographs of Shinella's mystic experiences along with a testimony written by you.

I just want to know if there are temporary wounds at the places on her body from where blood oozes.As far as I know, only Catholic mystics have experienced this, which is called 'stigmata'.

So obviously my next question to you is what do the voices say about the Catholic Church, the Pope, and the Virgin Mary?From: [email protected] To: G Date: Mon, 2 Apr 2012 02:38:58 -0400

Subject: RE: The testimony of your daughter Shinella -Very few have received the stigmata on record, I got to know after checking out Google. 160 plus, though the figure is different at various places. This is not exclusive to Catholics.

-So far till date nothing heard from the voice of the Lord about the Catholic Church or the Pope. However, even though I am a Catholic by birth, on asking the status of Mother Mary, Lord Jesus appeared to Shinella on 28 March at 21:35 hours, smiled for the first time and replied, "I am a jealous God".This clearly answers the question, and as such, the family has no place for the rosary, or praise for any saint or blessed mother (even though we do not disrespect or disregard them for their holy way of life) in front of the one and only true living God, as He is a jealous God and wants all the praise and glory to Himself.Shane Stephens

TESTIMONY OF SHINELLA STEPHENS – DELHI, INDIA

An account of Supernatural and Divine events from May 2008 till 25 March 2012

By Shane Stephens [All emphases his unless otherwise notified by me]

Background

Shinella was born in January 1996 to a Roman Catholic father Shane Stephens and a Church of North India mother -Sunila Stephens. Shinella also has an elder brother – Sean, who is 5 and 1/2 years older than her. The parents claim responsibility for ignoring the ways of religion to the extent of even avoiding Sunday church services and keeping the children ignorant of the word of God and the very basics of Christian faith. As such, neither family prayers nor the Holy Bible was ever read in the house, prior to June 2008. Shinella till the very day of hearing the verses from the Holy Bible, as described below, has otherwise been totally unaware of the various chapters or verses revealed to her through the voice of God. The family tried to escape behind the lame excuse of avoiding church, or spending time for God, owing to regular shifting / transfers of Shane, according to his job profile. Just the basic rituals of Baptism in a catholic church were carried out for Shinella.

God testing the family

On shifting to a rented apartment in Delhi in May 2008, 12 year old Shinella began experiencing curious supernatural events of speaking and hearing the voice of a teenage girl’s spirit late every night after the family had gone to bed. She initially thought it probably an imagination but with each passing day could find this a real event happening in her life. This did not scare Shinella, as the spirit seemed harmless and would generally speak to Shinella to go out with her and go for party, and have fun, play etc. The spirit also would speak of the name of some boy called Sameer. The spirit seemed to know Shinella’s likes / dislikes and favourite clothes etc. On being probed by her father and mother regarding keeping up late nights and watching TV till late, after a month of the events in June 2008, Shinella revealed facts of the events happening in her life, over the past month. Fear gripped the family, especially the mother – Sunila. The father – Shane also felt a deep realization of being away and in turn also keeping the family away from the ways of God, and from memory of what was told years ago by his uncle and aunty, uttered a biblical verse to the family, out of this realization- "Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." Coincidently, when the bible for the very first time in the family was randomly opened for prayer, the very same verse uttered a while ago came forth and was read. This definitely had to be the wonder of God. On being advised by her paternal grandparents in hometown, the family got the house blessed by the local parish priest the very next day and the family started visiting the local Catholic Church on a regular weekly basis, also saying family prayers each night before sleep. This brought much peace and happiness to the family and all previous events ceased to recur.

Shinella realizes having a rare gift of premonition and mind reading

The family again shifted their residence to another rented apartment in Delhi, to a society close by in August 2009. The new rented apartment was blessed by the Parish Priest prior to taking possession and moving in. Over a period of time, the family gradually slipped away from the regular weekly church services and also the family prayers. Within a few months a time came when the church visits and night prayers almost stopped. Since the summer April/ May 2011, 15 year old Shinella realized that she was getting premonitions of casual events that were occurring with her friends. Very soon she also realized that randomly, she was seeing 40-45 minutes of real time events happening. Shinella could see and narrate numerous events of the common friends at remote locations in exact detail, to other friends about them and other mates, which stunned them all. Many times at home she would narrate events taking place with her friends like, visiting malls, the exactness of clothing and activities going on etc. to minutest detail, taking place in real time. Now this was fun for Shinella and all around her, as this was something beyond the ordinary, and each event was confirmed exact by the person with whom it happened – a gift. Shinella also did see a few premonitions regarding accidents, major and minor, which were about to happen in future time, and the same were averted by her warning which was heeded by her friend. For a matter of example, a case of a heavy curtain pelmet rod falling on her friends head was avoided by Shinella’s call to move away from the location seeing it happen minutes before it actually happened.

Another incident of a car crash the next day was avoided by Shinella by warning her friend to cancel her road trip to the destination. The car accident did take place, but her friend was saved. Yet another premonition which could not be averted was that of a lady, being electrocuted to death. The event came to pass the very next day 1500 kms away of one of Shane’s friend’s wife dying in exactly the same way!! Everything was so far pretty fine for Shinella and the family members, taking this to be a very special gift which the child – Shinella possessed.

A weird/scary vision

Whilst Shane was outstation, on 19 September 2011, at about 4 AM Shinella awoke choking and breathless, from a very weird and scary vision/dream of a strong tattooed man being strangled on his neck by three wires by another strong man. The attacked man had a phi (ϕ) sign tattooed on his bicep. Shinella perceived that she was the third person at the scene, as witness to the event, taking place in some dilapidated ruined medieval place in Europe. When she awoke, choking and breathless and visited the wash room, to her surprise she saw three fine wires like marks in red on her neck. She told her brother Sean and mother Sunila about this. Within an hour of the event a set of three fine wire marks in red appeared on her right shoulder, left wrist, right thigh, stomach, waist and chest. Surprising to say the least!! Within half an hour of the wire marks appearing, the centre line of each wire mark on all locations of her body vanished and reappeared as alphabets. The set of alphabets when placed together by Shinella, read “Sanguis” meaning “blood” in Latin, when checked out on Google. After about another half an hour, the above set of alphabets faded away and reformed a second set of alphabets forming the Latin word “Mortis”, meaning “death”. Again, the phenomenon was repeated and a third set of alphabets reformed in place of the second set, placing together as the Latin word “Sepulchrum”, meaning “tomb or grave”. Lastly, after another half an hour, the fourth and last set of alphabets formed the Latin word “Ultio Ultionis” meaning “revenge”. Also the phi (ϕ) sign on the attacked man’s bicep appeared on her right thigh. Further a medical sign of a staff and a coiled serpent appeared on Shinella’s right thigh.

In Greek mythology, the Rod of Asclepius (sometimes also spelled Asklepios or Aesculapius), also known as the asklepian, [1] is a serpent-entwined rod wielded by the Greek god Asclepius, a deity associated with healing and medicine. The symbol has continued to be used in modern times, where it is associated with medicine and health care, yet frequently confused with the staff of the god Hermes, the caduceus. This event may be regarded as extremely weird and scary. Shane was informed the same telephonically on the evening of 19 September 2011. Sunila was deep in prayer out of fear of this event. When Shane returned from tour, he took Sunila the mother and daughter Shinella to Jesus Calls prayer tower at Delhi on Saturday 24 September 11. Prayers were said for Shinella’s protection from any evil, and to stop all unwanted visions/premonitions. Sunila began fasting and regular prayers with fervor and perseverance throughout each passing day. The visions/premonitions stopped but a weird phenomenon of blood trickling on Shinella’s body in three fine stripes for about 10 minutes took place at the earlier mentioned body fine wire marks locations every following Mon – Tuesday for about five weeks and then this phenomenon completely stopped. One should imagine the anxiety and trauma going through with the family, owing to this supernatural phenomenon.

God tests the family again

Over the passing months the father Shane would regularly admonish the children Sean and Shinella for lack of study and habits of over indulgence in TV, net and phone. Shinella did mention to her father that she needed to talk about certain details which her father-Shane brushed aside and expected both children to pay attention to their academics and upcoming tests. Since November 2011 till early February 2012, 16 year old Shinella could regularly see the presence of another teenage girl’s spirit in translucent form and clothed in a bluish white Indian outfit. The spirit seemed harmless to Shinella and always looking very sad and dejected. Shinella did not mention this to anybody fearing that this might scare her mother, owing to past experiences. However, on 08 February 12, though he could not see it, Sean could sense a strong presence of something weird in his room and also an icy chill feeling of hands and feet. He discussed with Shinella and asked her whether anything was felt by her. It is after this that Shinella revealed to her brother - Sean that she had been seeing the 17-18 year old girl’s (harmless) spirit, in the house for over the past two and a half months. She asked Sean not to tell the mother; lest this might scare her mother. On the 10 February, events of extraordinary teleporting of objects like car keys, mint bottles, digital camera, mobile charger etc. repeatedly took place on its own in the children’s room. This was clearly confirmed and then the children, decided for the first time, to tell the father – Shane at about 9:30 PM about this phenomenon. Though none were scared, but the father, also observed the teleporting of the empty mint bottle back to the common place even after it was cast into the dust bin. Enough was enough, the father brought out the Holy Bible and chose to read Psalm 91 for protection by the Lord, thereafter, family prayers were also done. The mother after inquiry about the rare phenomenon of family prayer, last sometime in 2009, understood of the events of the spirit of this girl in the house. Sunila started with very strong prayer asking the Lord to free this spirit from the house.

When prayers were being done, both Sean and Shinella could experience an extremely obnoxious smell in the room and asked the mother to calm down and try not taking on the power of spirits. Shinella could see the spirit standing in front of her mother. The father Shane did not tolerate this idea by the children and supported the mother in even much stronger prayer, and the smell grew unbearable and choking for the two children. On being requested by the children, both father and mother calmed down and lowered the volume and intensity of prayer and it seemed to both children that the smell though still present was bearable.

Shane powerfully prayed to Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit of God, leaving an open register and pen and commanding the spirit in Jesus name to reveal her identity and purpose of visit to the home. Shinella convulsed and signaled for the book and surprisingly wrote in Hindi the following whilst being interrogated by Sean and Shane in chronological order. “Stop. I am not a bad spirit. Help me. I was killed. My name is Mala. Please forgive me and don’t spare my assassins. I was killed by repetitive stabbing by knives. I was not burnt. Your daughter is a very nice girl. I am not evil. Please forgive me. I would not harm anyone, I promise. I would follow your instructions, as you say. Your daughter can help me get deliverance. Please pray for me. I am feeling relief. All of you are very good and compassionate. I wish my family were the same. Your son and daughter are indeed very good at heart. I would listen to whatever you instruct. I would go away. Forgive me. I did not want to trouble you. Your children are very special and have been born for a special purpose. I would not bother you any longer. I am leaving for good. I love you all very much. Always be happy.”

Whilst all the above was being narrated by the girls spirit through Shinella, the Lord Jesus was being praised and requested to deliver the spirit, if it was harmless and needed deliverance. Also the girl was commanded that revenge is not for us to decide and not in God’s keeping. The Lord would decide appropriate action to the assassins (Shinella was seeing the entire vision of the girl being stabbed by her brother and father in a village, maybe sometime in 1970s timeframe). Also the girl was commanded by the father – Shane that only Jesus Christ could give the girl true deliverance, and implored to Lord Jesus to shower His mercy in delivering this wandering soul. None of the family was prepared for this encounter, but took it head on placing their faith of a mustard seed in God and continually imploring with the Lord to intervene forthwith and resolve the issue of deliverance. Within an hour of prayer, Shinella became normal, and both Sean and Shinella felt an easing out of the atmosphere, very light and relaxed. Shinella could for the very first time see the girl leaving the house with a smile on her face. (The girl as seen by Shinella was always very sad earlier). This event took place from 1 AM till 3 AM on 11 February 2012 at Delhi. Tremendous gratitude to Lord Jesus and building of faith came upon every single member of the family immediately after this event. It clearly revealed that everything is possible with God, and if you even have the faith of a mustard seed in God, you could access His intercession to do wonders for you!! Amen!

An oath to Lord Jesus

Following the above incident and a lot of strife and unrest in the house, between husband and wife and also children over the past few years, on 12 February 2012 Sunila prayed to Jesus and promised Him to fast and keep praying until He would come to the family to restore peace and happiness. Also over the past 6 months or so, owing to the unrest at large at home, Sunila would keep praying to the Lord, asking Him to soon bring the family together, so that all could pray together and worship God. On the evening of 13 February 2012, Sean felt a very unusual weakness and sickness like never before, totally drained of energy. He mentioned that this is not a normal sickness/fever and the weakness was immense, even more than the time when Sean suffered from dengue over a year ago. Shinella could see a black cloud (signifying the presence of evil one) near Sean. The family owing to renewed faith and strength in the Lord, following the 11 February event, prayed strongly together each night thereafter, and was doing so on 14 February night too.

First message from God

During the 14 February night prayers Sean was checked to be running a 102 F degree fever and very weak, so was sleeping whilst family prayed. Shinella could hear a clear whispering soft voice speaking the following words to her - Beata, Beatus and the following – “A deo etrege, A Fortiori, Agnus Dei”

Shinella wrote down the same on a piece of paper, which none of us including her could understand. Through her cell connected to the net, Sean in his state of fever googled and found that the above message was in Latin with a clear meaning as follows – “From God and the King, for even a stronger reason, the Lamb of God (meaning Jesus).” Miraculously, within seconds of decoding the message, Sean sprang up filled with vigour and his fever left him. Praise the Lord Jesus for this divine entry into our house. The family kept praising the Lord and praying. During this Shinella again heard the divine soft voice revealing chronologically the following four verses to her, and she wrote the four verses (mentioned in bold italics below) on a piece of paper. Each of the verse was referred to in the Holy Bible, by Shane and each had a very strong and significant meaning.

Isaiah 40:31 – “but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” Immediately on searching this verse in the Bible, Sunila wept and said, Lord I have been waiting for you, and you have come to us and spoken to us!! Praise God. Amen.

Isaiah 41:10 – “fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you; I will help you. I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

Joshua 1:9-11 – “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened and do not be dismayed for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

1 Chronicles 16:11 – “Seek the Lord and His strength; Seek His presence continually.” Shinella could also see a very bright light growing into a large milk white cloud. Then the white cloud engulfing the black cloud and smashing the black cloud to pieces. Signifying, thereby, the triumph of faith and good over evil.

15 February 2012

At about 2:30-3 AM Shinella went to her room and then out on the balcony and could clearly see a large milk white cloud hovering over the building in the sky. Also a very peaceful light atmosphere could be felt. Shinella saw a very bright light in the milk white cloud and it was surrounded by numerous tiny bright lights. This signified the presence of God being surrounded by angels. Plenty of shooting lights streaking across were also seen be her. She then saw a huge white cross form in the sky. At about 4-5 PM Shinella saw visions of pictures which she sketched on a piece of paper. As Sean again felt the weakness and light fever, Shinella was sitting next to him and as is usually her habit, was playing with Sean’s hair. She noticed on Sean’s scalp appearing and then fading away two signs.

The Chi Rho is one of the earliest forms of christogram, and is used by Christians. It is formed by superimposing the first two (capital) letters chi and rho (ΧΡ) of the Greek word "ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ" =Christ in such a way to produce the monogram. Although not technically a Christian cross, the Chi-Rho invokes the crucifixion of Jesus, as well as symbolizing his status as the Christ. [1]

First a Chi and Rho sign as seen above, usually found on the robe of priests and on altar cloth.

A flaming chalice is the most widely used symbol of Unitarianism and Unitarian Universalism and the official logo of the Unitarian Universalist Association (UUA) and other Unitarian and UU churches and societies.

The second was a flaming chalice as seen in attachment.

This signifies Unitarian Universalist Association, embracing development of spiritual growth for each and every diverse faith and religion. Following eight verses as below in bold italics were whispered to Shinella by the divine voice and written by her on a piece of paper. Each of the verse was referred to in the Holy Bible, by Shane and each had a very strong and significant meaning:

Joshua 1: 5-6 - “No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you or forsake you. Be strong and courageous, for you shall cause the people to inherit the land that I swore to their fathers to give them.”

Deuteronomy 7:9 – “Know therefore that the Lord your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love Him and keep His commandments, to a thousand generations.”

1 Samuel 2:9 – “He will guard the feet of His faithful ones, but the wicked shall be cut off in darkness, for not by might shall man prevail.”

Mark 12:33 – “And to love Him with all the heart and with all understanding and with all strength and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, is much more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

Acts 14:12 – “Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul they called Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.” [To understand the above the family read Acts 14: -11-15 and could get a clear message that with all this divine blessing and messages to the family none is supposed to boast of their own self but see each of us as any other common man and humble servants of God, seeking to follow in His loving ways and keeping His word. Amen.]

1 Corinthians 10-13 – “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation He will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”

2 Corinthians 12:9-10 – “But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ rests upon me. For the sake of Christ then I am content with weakness, insults, hardships, and calamities for when I am weak, then I am strong.”

2 Corinthians 13:4 – “For He was crucified in weakness, but lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but in dealing with you we will live with Him by the power of God.”

17 February 2012

At about 3-3:30 AM Shinella hears the divine voice whispering and writes the following six verses (bold italics) on a piece of paper. Each of the verse was referred to in the Holy Bible, by Shane and each had a very strong and significant meaning. Galatians 2:20 – “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me.”

Galatians 5:13 – “For you were called to freedom brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.”

1 Peter 1:22 – “Having purified your souls by obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart.”

1 John 4:7 – “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God.”

John 14:21-24 – “Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father and I will love him and manifest myself to him. Judas (not Iscariot) said to him “Lord how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, we will come to him and make our home with him. Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And the words that you hear is not mine but the Father’s who sent me.”

John 15:9-17 – “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Fathers commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this that someone lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you to. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what is master is doing, but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father, have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you that you should go and bear fruit that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, He may give it to you. These things I command you, so that you will love one another.”

18 February 2012

At about 1:12 AM as Sean continued to suffer from illness and fever, the following four verses in bold italics were heard as the gentle voice spoke to Shinella. She wrote the verses down on a piece of paper. Each of the verse was referred to in the Holy Bible, by Shane and each had a very strong and significant meaning.

Luke 18:27 – “But he said “what is impossible with men, is possible with God.”

Deuteronomy 7:15 – “And the Lord will take away from you all sickness, and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you knew, will he inflict on you but he will lay them on all who hate you.”

Exodus 15:26 – “There the Lord made for them a statute and a rule, and there he tested them, saying, “If you diligently listen to the voice of the Lord your God, and do that which is right in his eyes and give ear to his commandments and keep his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you that I put on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord your healer.”

Exodus 23:25 – “You shall serve the Lord your God and he will bless your bread, and your water, and I will take sickness away from you.” Immediately on receipt of the above verses from God, Sean’s fever left him, and he felt much better. Praise the Lord, Amen. At about 1330-1400 on 18 Feb 12, Sean was arguing with Shinella and also using foul language over some issue. Within a little while Shinella could hear the voice of our Lord saying “Sean” as if the messages to follow were for Sean, and also she heard our Lord whisper the following five verses (Bold Italics). Each of the verse was referred to in the Holy Bible, by Shane and each had a very strong and significant meaning.

Matthew 26:41 – “Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

1 Corinthians 10:13 - “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation He will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”

Mark 14:38 – “Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Ephesians 6:10 – “Finally be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.”

James 4:7 – “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.”

19-20 February 2012

At about 11 PM on 19 February the family sat down for prayer, but prior to prayer got into a very long and argumentative discussion. Shane showed his disgust with Sean and Shinella saying that being the head of the house he said and meant good for the children and was very disappointed with the approach of the children especially with their lazy mannerisms and their slackness in academic pursuit. No amount of justification from either Sunila or the children found favour with Shane. Sunila was in deep prayer asking the Lord for answers and to grant peace to the home. She randomly opened a book of promises with biblical verses and the following eleven appeared in the book – Deuteronomy 28:13 – “The Lord will make you the head, not the tail. You will always be at the top, never at the bottom.”

Isaiah 43:18-19 – “Forget the former things; do not dwell in the past. See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the waste land.”

Ezekiel 36:11 – I will settle people on you as in the past and will make you prosper more than before. Then you will know that I am the Lord.”

Micah 7:15 – “I will show them my wonders.”

Isaiah 55:9 – As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts.”

Isaiah 58:11 – The Lord will guide you always. He will satisfy your needs in a sun scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well watered garden, like a spring whose water never fails.”

Psalm 18:35 – “You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me, you stoop down to make me great.” Isaiah 58:8 – Then your light will quickly break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear; then your righteousness will go before you, and the glory of the Lord will be your rear guard.”

20 February 2012

At about 1500 hours Shinella was having a discussion with Sean, where Sean disagreed and argued/judged Shinella’s decisions and was also judging one of Shinella’s friends on the basis of presumption. Shinella again heard the gentle voice speaking to her saying – "Shinella, you are a wise girl. Have faith in me and stand by the choices you make in life. Success will knock at your door, read my word every day. You are clean and pure my daughter. A book cannot be judged by its cover. Just pray to me and I shall never let you fall. My daughter you are clean from your heart and soul and whatever plans I have for you will never harm you."

Also the following two verses in bold italics were heard by Shinella. Shane referred to the Bible to check the verses –

Isaiah 11:3 – “And His delight shall be in the fear of the Lord. He shall not judge by what his eyes see, or decide disputes by what his ears hear.”

John 8:15 – “You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.” Whilst writing the above two verses Shinella for the first time could open her eyes whilst receiving verses, (as each time the golden-silver light was too blinding for her) She felt like she was within a very dark cave and could see a milk white cloud at the entrance of the cave, with the very bright blinding golden-silver light shielded by the cloud and emerging in all directions from behind the cloud. Amen.

22 February 2012

Shinella heard the voice saying "Shinella listen to your heart as I am in it my daughter." Also following two verses were whispered to her. The same were referred to in the Holy Bible.

Proverbs 23:19 – “Hear my son and be wise, and direct your heart in the way.”

Proverbs 23:15 – “My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad.”

24 February 2012

At about 1130 pm after the family prayers, whilst the family was going to bed, the following 9 verses were whispered by the Lord to Shinella. The same were referred to from the Holy Bible.

1Timothy 6:12-16 – “Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. I charge you in the presence of God, who gives life to all things, and of Jesus Christ who in his testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ which he will display at the proper time – he who is blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and the Lord of lords, who dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see. To him be honour and eternal dominion. Amen.”

Romans 1:17 – “For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

You have given me the shield of your salvation, and your right hand supported me, and your gentleness made me great. You gave me a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip.”

27 February 2012 - Message in Latin

At 6:30 AM Shinella heard the voice of the Lord speaking the following message which she wrote down on a piece of paper and brought to her father and mother. “Ad astra per aspera, Ad augusta per angusta, Ad honorem, Ad maiorem Dei gloriam, Ad victoriam, Ad vitam aeternam."

None including Shinella could understand the meaning or language of the message she just got, but the same became amply clear to be a message in Latin with the following meaning as soon as the message was googled on the net. “A rough road leads to the stars, dedicated to the pursuit of eternity and the God by whom that pursuit is possible, to capture affection or suit the taste of the crowd, for the honour of, for the greater glory of God, for victory, to everlasting life."

What a powerful message!!! Praise the Lord. Amen.

29 February 2012 - The first sign of stigmata

After the night family prayers and the family going to sleep, at about 1:30 AM on 29 February, Shinella started feeling a very comforting warmth in her body with a feeling of lightness and floating. She awoke and mentioned the same to her brother Sean, who when also awoke and switched on the light, was astounded to see a sign of the cross on the centre of her forehead, and near her heart. This was in blood (pictures on page 1), with no wounds or cuts. The children swiftly came to the parents’ bed room and showed the same. Understanding this powerful sign as the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ, the family got on their knees and deep in prayer, praising Lord Jesus and reading Psalms from the Holy Bible.

As a background, flashback, just before sleep the mother Sunila prayed to Jesus to wash Shinella with His precious blood and drive away the material desires and bring her closer to the spiritual desire with the Lord. Just notice the answering of prayer by Lord Jesus, in the most divine signs of His presence. As the family continued praising the wonder working God for His magnificent ways, at about 2:40 AM, the stigmata (blood signs on both palms and feet) began appearing for Shinella) in front of our very own eyes of the family (pictures on page 1). The places of stigmata were a bit painful. The family continued to praise the Lord. This divine miracle was discussed with the eldest and most religious Stephens, Uncle Denzil Stephens (aged 85yrs) in Canada. He advised that this be discussed with the Archbishop and Carmelite Mother Dora at Delhi. At about 4:05 AM the voice of the Lord whispered to Shinella the following verse, bold italics, which was referred to in the Holy Bible, later at 5 AM and 5:10 AM two more verses were heard by Shinella, same as under, in chronology – Matthew 12:18 – “Behold, my servant whom I have chosen, my beloved with whom my soul is well pleased, I will put my spirit upon him, and he will proclaim justice to the gentiles.”

Isaiah 41:9 – “You whom I took from the ends of the earth and called from its farthest corners, saying to you, you are my servant, I have chosen you and not cast you off.”

Matthew 17:5 – “He was still speaking when, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son with whom I am well pleased, listen to Him.” When the disciples heard this; they fell on their faces and were terrified. But Jesus came and touched them saying, “Rise and have no fear.”

The above verses made it amply clear to the family about the wonder working way of Lord Jesus, and this rejuvenated their belief and joy. Later in the morning at about 10-11 AM, on finding contact numbers an appointment was sought with the Archbishop* at 4 PM and the family revealed the whole testimony right from the beginning of supernatural, and then later the divine events in our lives. The family made it clear that no recognition or credit was sought by any member of the family, as everything was clearly revealed to be the will of God, and every single thing was to reveal His wonders and His glory. On hearing this, the Archbishop was convinced of the presence of the Holy Spirit, which had humbled the family, in front of God, and so the Archbishop advised the family to continue in prayer and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit, also to revert to him should any further clarification or guidance be needed. *Most Rev. Vincent Concessao -Michael

01 March 2012 - The second event of the stigmata

At about 6:10 PM whilst watching TV, Shinella began convulsing and the stigmata in blood started reappearing on Shinella. A cross on her forehead, blood on both palm and reverse, and also on both feet and the reverse. Shinella was in pain and also her right rib had a mark. The family praised Lord Jesus and implored the Holy Spirit of God to take over mind, body and soul in total surrender. Shinella also vomited about a glass of water. During the experience of the stigmata, she could see the vision of Christ being nailed and crucified, and feeling just a small part of that immense pain, though she was shouting in pain. Shinella could not see the face of the Lord but a bright light near His face. Shinella also could see a vision of a large Chi and Rho on Sean’s chest. When we tried to uncover Sean’s T-shirt, we did not find any; however, this is what Shinella could perceive. The stigmata lasted for about 40 minutes and total peace and comfort was felt by the family. Shane could get in contact with Mother Dora and also the Archbishop to narrate about this second event of the stigmata. Shane also contacted brother Raju, who prayed and guided the family to go through the testimony of Angelica Zambrano of Ecuador on the YouTube. The family went through the 1 hour 26 min testimony of Angelica of Ecuador and clearly got a message of prayer and glorification to none other than the one and only true living God with no scope for praising any saints, mother Mary or any form of idolatry*. The family went deep into prayer and praised the Lord. During the night prayer, Sean felt a gentle pain in his heart and also a light tap on his shoulder. At about 9 PM Shinella heard the voice of our Lord whisper the following verse- 2 Peter 1:21 – “For no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.”

*Emphasis mine -Michael

02 March 2012 – Temptation by Satan

After going to sleep, following the night prayers, Satan tried to tempt and impersonate through Shinella, speaking to Sean at about 3:45 AM in the dark, and trying to reverse the whole facts of events. Shinella under Satan’s influence was almost deceiving and convincing Sean that she had been lying and trying to mislead the family. Sean was getting convinced up to a point, and then began quizzing Shinella about the real signs of stigmata and verses in Latin and signs appearing in front of the family and Sean switched on the light. He could clearly see Shinella not herself and fumbling for words and then stunned. Shinella came to herself and then realized that she did not know what all she had been saying and was clear also about Satan trying to grab over her soul. The children came into the parent’s bed room with this narration and immediately the family in the name of the Holy Spirit rebuked Satan and asked for him to be cast away. The family was praising God in prayer at 4 AM.

During this again the Satan tried to tempt and take over Shinella by causing her to try and lie. This was clearly seen and fought off by prayer, Shinella also shrieked and cried in pain as she could feel a fight between icy chill and warmth inside her body, and then warmth taking over the entire body and fighting off painfully at the places of stigmata. This is not easily explained, but it must be put forth that she felt a fight between Satan and the Holy Spirit to take control, where the Holy Spirit vanquished and put away Satan, manifesting in growing comforting warmth, and also a pain in the places of stigmata. Praise God!! Amen. The family kept praising Lord Jesus and confessed that we have been big sinners unworthy of the Lord’s presence. Shinella during this heard the Lord whisper “Agnus Dei, All your sins will be washed away, as I am with you.” Shane cried uncontrollably like a little child thereafter. Shinella again heard the voice whisper to her, “Don’t shed your tears, my son, as I love you all so much.” Praise the Lord Jesus for His unparallel and immeasurable love.

04 March 2012 – The third event of stigmata

At about 01:20 AM Shinella again got the stigmata prominently visible on her palms, feet and right side of chest. This time no bleeding occurred but the pain was intense and Shinella cried with pain. The family prayed to the Lord with fervor and read Psalm 38 and 39. On the feet at places of stigmata the following alphabets appeared in red - left foot top "E", left foot bottom "S", right foot top "J", right foot bottom "U". Shinella was partially blinded, mute and dumbfounded for a while. She could not communicate with any of the family members at this point of time. Whilst the family was in prayer and trying to communicate with Shinella, the Lord was speaking to her and she wrote, “I love you my daughter, I won’t let anybody harm you. Do not worry, you would be able to hear after I finish. I will protect you.”

Lord Jesus reveals Himself for the first time to Shinella

In a trance at about 1:40 AM and being attracted by a blinding bright golden-silver light, Shinella was drawn into the living room, where she fell onto her knees and bowed her head down to the floor and kissed it. Shinella said she could see the feet of Jesus with the wounds of stigmata. Shane and Sunila also followed Shinella and fell prostrate on the floor, praising Lord Jesus. Shinella later asked dad and mother why they came, as Jesus was not visible any more. We all went back with Shinella to her room and she narrated that she could only see

Lord Jesus’ feet which she had kissed. She saw His hair like gold, and an extremely bright golden-silver light emanating from His countenance, which she could not see. Also his robe was sparkling white and emanating the light. Shinella described that she could see this entire revelation of the Lord Jesus, amidst the clouds.

Lord Jesus reveals Himself for the second time

At about 4 AM, Shinella was in Dad and Moms room, then she got alienated from us (cut off in a trance whilst awake) again felt she was taken to the clouds and once again saw the same tall slim figure of Lord Jesus in His sparkling white robe. This time Shinella could see the hands of Lord Jesus with His wounds, as she bowed down and praised Him, the Lord placed His hands on her head and blessed her. She could feel tear drops falling on her folded hands. She seemed to be speaking to the Lord in Latin, which none of us could record or understand. She could not see His countenance due to the bright blinding light that emanated from it. In actual Shinella had again in her trance been carried into the living room where she felt that she was cut off from everything and felt it all to be happening in the clouds. During this revelation of the Lord to Shinella, Dad and Mom kept praising the Lord from the other room, not wanting to intervene and disturb. After Shinella came back and was picked up from the living room by Dad, after some time, Shinella was in her own, and she narrated the above. When asked about what she was speaking in the strange foreign tongue, she said that she felt she perfectly knew the language then, but could not recall now what was being spoken. Shinella expressed that on both encounters with the Lord, she could feel Him weeping. At about 05:30 AM Shinella could hear the voice tell her the verse bold italics, which was referred to in the Holy Bible - 1 Peter 3:5 – “For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands.” The above message seems to be for the mother – Sunila.

06 March 2012 – Stigmata and seeing Lord Jesus the third time

At about 10:50 PM, the family got together in the living room and prayed, reading Job 35 & 36 and then Psalms 76 & 77. Shinella wandered away during reading of the Psalms and lay down peacefully in her room. We followed and continued in prayer – the Our Father, Glory be, and praises to the Lord. Shinella then went in a trance and fell prostrate on the bed of the master bed room.

She started crying in pain the family kept on praying and praising the Lord, and Psalm 107 was read, she came normal to herself after prayer and at about 11:30 PM revealed that she was once again taken by the Lord into thick white clouds leading to the Golden Gates of heaven. This time Shinella entered the golden gate and for the very first time was able to see the beautiful bluish, greenish with grayish tinge of eyes of the Lord Jesus. The rest of the face was too bright with only light emanating. She could see the Lord weeping with tears, as He felt very sorry for His children going astray. She spoke to the Lord in Latin and could understand then, but after getting back to us, she could not recall what. She cried in pain many times during occurrence of stigmata because at that time she saw our Lords wounded palms, feet and right side and could sense the pain on corresponding parts of her body. Also she felt like her forehead was being pierced by thorns and being beaten as in the passion of the Lord.

07 March 2012 – The Lord Jesus appears to Shinella for the fourth time

After late family prayers, Sean and Shinella were awake in their room and at about 3 AM both Shinella and Sean could sense an extremely obnoxious sewage like smell (representing evil), Shinella could see a vision of a tunnel leading to Hell, and our Lord Jesus standing at the entrance protecting/guarding her from entering the tunnel. During this vision it pained Shinella at the places of stigmata, and Shinella could see the eyes of Lord Jesus. She could also see the Demon of Gluttony, immensely obese, as fat as a double King-size bed, and eating / devouring food non-stop. Also he was grabbing hold of others with his huge claws and stuffing the mouths of people with food, even more than their mouths could hold.

08 March 2012

At about 11:00 AM Shinella was persistent to be allowed to visit her friend’s house. Shinella’s parents and elder brother Sean resisted and advised her to go out only after the play with colours got over, as it was the festival of Holi, played in an unruly way on the streets of the capital – Delhi. On being denied by her father – Shane, Shinella wept and prayed and again saw the blinding light and heard the following two verses – Psalm 27:10 – “For my father and my mother have forsaken me, but the Lord will take me in.” Colossians 3:21–“Fathers do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.”

08 March 2012 – Shinella with Lord Jesus a fifth time

At about 13:10 hours Shinella was convulsing and could feel her soul being taken away from her body. She could feel being taken up by Lord Jesus into the clouds. This time she could see His eyes and nose also. Within about 5 minutes she got back to us as we were praying to God around her, she revealed what she had seen. During that period she had for once felt her body going lifeless and without sensation.

08 March 2012 – The crown of thorns (first time)

At about 14:05 hours Shinella came out of the wash room without realizing the trickle of blood all over her forehead (picture on page 1) She lay down on the bed and felt the Lord wanted to take her away. The mother, father and Sean prayed and wept for God’s mercy and compassion. Although the father – Shane did mention that the will of the Lord may prevail, his heart melted at seeing the mother Sunila and son Sean crying bitterly, and changed and asked the Lord to be merciful and understand us weaklings. The mother asked the Lord Jesus to give us back His daughter, so that we could keep her with care and happy. After reading Ecclesiastes 7 from the Bible, the Lord’s mercy was shown to us and Shinella was back with us. Shinella had felt like her head bursting due to the crown of thorns.

08 March 2012 – The crown of thorns (second time)

At about 1530 hours when Shinella was going to take a bath, once again the crown of thorns appeared like blood trickling all over her forehead.(picture on page 1) Shinella mentioned to her mother and brother that she felt a very strange feeling in her womb, like something breeding within her!! Shinella lay down on the bed and the family prayed around her, praising Lord Jesus through Psalm 79.

08 March 2012 - Letters J-E-S-U-S appear on Shinella’s stomach

A cross in blood also appeared near Shinella’s heart. A pain in Shinella’s abdomen was felt and as she lifted her T-shirt, in front of our eyes started appearing the formation in blood of a cross near her navel and the letters JESUS in capitals (picture on page 1). At about 16:28 hours Shinella felt an unusual though bearable pain in her womb/abdomen which she could not express or explain. She then heard a voice revealing the following verse in bold italics, which was referred to in the Bible – Luke 1:35 – “And the angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will be called Holy – the Son of God.” The above verse was extremely disturbing to Shane, because this meant something against the scriptures!! Further, coincidently about 2 weeks prior to this event, Sean had mentioned to his father Shane that God being so powerful and mighty, could work in ways beyond our comprehension, also suggesting that the second coming of Jesus could be through the Holy Spirit even through Shinella*. On that occasion Shane rebuked Sean and cast away even the thought of such things not mentioned in scripture. Extremely disturbed to think that may be the evil one had some malicious designs the father and mother late at night even after the family prayers, entered the children’s room and got into discussion about this disturbing and serious matter. *Emphasis mine

Shinella was asked to focus on prayer and recall the chain of events and the voice that spoke to her. After prayer Shinella said that she got the answer. She recalled the voice to be doubtful, NOT the same soft whispering voice, but rather firm (trying to replicate though deceitful) and the light accompanying the voice was not golden-silver but orange-red. Hence it became clear that it could have been the work of Satan. Also at that point of time Shinella heard the soft voice of the Lord saying – “The heavens and the earth shall pass away, but My word shall not pass away.” Shinella also mentioned that the appearing of JESUS in blood on her stomach was to undo the work of Satan breeding inside her*. *Emphasis mine

After this, the family was all the more alerted to be cautious and look out for any evil designs by Satan and cast it all away in the name of Lord Jesus. The family’s faith grew stronger in the Almighty. Amen.

11 March 2012 - Lord Jesus appears to Shinella for a sixth time

At about 10:45 PM, during the family prayers Shinella went into a trance and communication with Lord Jesus. The Lord revealed the following to Shinella in His calm and gentle voice – “I am always with you. Don’t ever feel incomplete for I am every second with you – Agnus Dei.” He may try to tempt you, but I will protect you. I will bless you. I will guide you, and will never let you fall into temptation. You will be healed. Love me with all your heart. I cry to see how My own children don’t love Me. Shinella My daughter, I know you love Me. You have been forgiven. I will guide you. You are blessed. I will safe guard you from all evil.”

Shinella felt the Lord Jesus saying all the above to her in the clouds where once again she could see His eyes and nose and the Lord weeping. Bright golden-silver light emanated from the Lord.

13 March 2012

After the family prayers at night, at about 23:00 hours, the following verse was heard by Shinella.

Romans 3:21 – “But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, although the law and the Prophets bear witness to it.”

15 March 2012 – Jesus answers our prayer

At about 10:30 PM the family said night prayers where the father – Shane asked the Lord to grant wisdom to understand what is being said and directed and to guide the way/path. At about 11:25 PM Shinella could hear the gentle voice of the Lord whispering the following two verses – Philippians 4:6-7 – “do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication and thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.” 1 Corinthians 14:33 – “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.”

After the above message from God it became clear that all things would be revealed and directed at the appropriate time.

16 March 2012 - Stigmata and cross

At about 4:00 PM Shinella received the stigmata in blood on her palms and feet and on the reverse sides too. Once again the family got together and read the Holy Bible. At about 10:15 PM during the course of the family prayer Shinella received a cross in blood on the inner side of her right wrist. (picture on page 1)

17 March 2012 – Lord Jesus appears to Shinella for the seventh time

The family visited the Jesus Calls prayer tower for evening prayer at 18:00 hours. During the prayer by sister Sharon at about 19:45 hours, Shinella again felt a pain on her stigmata, palms, feet and side, and could feel weakness. She told Sean this and then got cut off from the prayer. She clearly again felt being taken up into the clouds where she stood face to face with Lord Jesus, wearing a two strap sandals. She saw the Lord Jesus in a shining white robe, emanating a golden tinge. For the first time she could see the entire face of Lord Jesus. His eyes were extremely beautiful like glass with a bluish, greenish, grayish colour to it. He had a long sharp, well defined nose, thin pink lips, and long triangular shaped face. Ash brown coloured eyebrows, moustache and beard. The Lord had golden colour hair flowing in the breeze. The Lord’s eyes were extremely beautiful, very innocent and filled with love and compassion. The Lord also held a brownish coloured wooden curved (hooked) shepherd’s staff. Shinella witnesses this for about 5 minutes. Later after the prayer meeting she described the Lord as most indescribably beautiful and loving. The Lord was not weeping this time.

17 March 2012 – Demons appear to Shinella

Post dinner at Connaught Place, after the prayer meet, the family whilst driving back past the Mother Theresa Crescent Road and the Embassies at Shanti Path, Shinella began to see black clouds appearing. She could also see a reddish orange light near the Embassies and Ministers houses. Also Shinella felt an extremely foul and obnoxious choking smell. Even Sean could sense the heavy obnoxious smell. Interestingly, the father and mother could neither see nor sense any smell. Once the Embassies were crossed, the smell also subsided for the children. Whilst driving in the car on the before mentioned roads, Shinella described that she could also see demons, coming out from the red cracks on the earth near the ministers houses and the embassies. When we reached home, Shinella gave a very detailed explanation of the three demons that she saw, each of them appearing twice, once in the masculine form and then in the feminine form. Shinella also noticed that all these demons had some sort of records of people and kept planning who they were about to tempt and attack next –

Demon of Greed – was extremely well dressed in a red/scarlet coloured silk robe, with precious stones of emerald, rubies, pearls and diamonds on the robe. He plucked out some of the stones from his robe and bounced it on his palms, gazing at it with wide eyes with glee and a greed for more. A closer look showed rotten flesh, and horrible facial skin. Demon of Envy – wore a black colour dress, the eyes were also fully black and had a very jealous / envious look. The demon had a lot of pictures of many well to do / eminent people, who the demon was knifing, and then tearing up the pictures and casting it into the fire. . A closer look showed rotten flesh, and horrible facial skin. Demon of Lust – appeared as a pair of male and female. The male was bare bodied, the female with a very skimpy black dress. The female was further pulling the skirt up being seductive. These demons had the most beautiful body shapes / forms, and could easily seduce anyone. The pair of demons was engaged in foreplay. A closer look at these demons also revealed rotten flesh, hanging and the facial skin too, very ugly.

19 March 2012 – Lord Jesus reveals Himself to Shinella for the eighth time

At 10:30 PM, during the family prayers, Shinella again fell into a trance, tapping her ears, when she got cut off in hearing, speech and sight from the family and communication with us, so we left her alone and continued the prayer. After she got back to her normal self, after about 10 minutes, she described having been with Lord Jesus in the clouds at about a 3 feet distance from Him and able to see Him in entirety. The Lord was in His usual sparkling white robe (without the shepherd staff this time) and not weeping. The Lord spoke gently and calmly to Shinella with the following message – “I am here! I need to warn you about a few things. Before My second coming, the Satan would come. Then, I would see who turns against Me and who turns towards Me, whosoever loves Me and whosoever denied Me. I would allow Satan to come and to let him tempt you. I will put people to the test and I will know who is My faithful servant, and who is not and then My Father will tell Me it is time and then the seventh angel would blow the trumpet and then I will come in full glory with the angels to judge the living and the dead. I will separate Myself from the earth, and take away My faithful servants with Me. The others would be left behind. The demons would be free to roam the earth.” This immensely scared Shinella for the first time ever, and the Lord Jesus sensing this, placed His holy right hand on her head and said “Fear not.” Shinella felt an immense peace and calm and a sense of protection. Her trance was broken and she was back to her normal self. She then later narrated the above to the family.

21 March 2012

At about 4 PM Shinella was revealed the following two verses in bold italics, which were referred to in the Holy Bible –

Matthew 28:20 – verses 19&29 – “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Hebrews 13:5 – “Keep your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you, nor forsake you.”

As a background, about 2-3 hours ago Sunila was discussing with one of her good friends that the family would spread the word of God when directed to and when the time was right! Coincidently, at about this same time when Sean was away at a distant location with his friends, unaware of this message coming from God, could sense, that the time to reveal a few things had come, and he began forewarning about the things to come, as messages received by the family.

23 Mar 2012

At about 00:08 hours, after the late night prayers, and watching a few testimonies on the You Tube, Shinella heard the voice of the Lord whispering the verse as below, and the family checked it out in the Holy Bible – Matthew 6:4 – "So that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”

Amazingly, the family the night before was discussing of how to go about acts of charity and doing for others. From the above message, it becomes amply clear as a spontaneous response that the great Lord clearly likes no one to trumpet these acts in the open.

24 March 2012 -Vision of the Road of Life

At about 01:10 hours when mother and father had fallen asleep after the family night prayers, Shinella and Sean came to the master bedroom, as Shinella was drawn by a very bright light in the master bed room. Shinella could see and tell us about the presence of an angel in the room. The family awoke and started praising the Lord Jesus. A sweet cherry aroma was also experienced. As we prayed, Shinella started seeing a second, third and then a fourth angel appearing in the room. All angels as described by Shinella were extremely beautiful, all female angels. As we were praising God, Shinella could see the angels also lifting their hands with eyes closed in praise to the Lord. Shinella saw one each angel (presumably our guardian angels) standing next to each one of us. The angels soon vanished and Shinella could no longer see them. Shinella whilst wide awake began seeing a vision let us term this as the “Road of life”, as follows – There was a very broad Black Road, about equal to a 24 lane or so highway (massive), and the same was flooded by millions of people, all walking in different queues and speeds towards the end of the Black Road which terminated in a big Black Hole, leading down to the depths of Hell.

The Black Road started at about sea level where everything was in level with the plains. Babies, infants and children up to say the age of 5 yrs or so, were present. The Black Road was inclined / sloped downwards and very long, the end of which was straight ahead, terminating at the horizon finally at the Black Hole, leading to Hell. An Arch right across the Black Road (like a bridge) about a quarter way from the start point, signified a Judgment Arch over the Black Road with a purpose narrated later. Many bye pass tunnels ran perpendicular from the right of the Black Road onto a much narrower White Road, which was running at an elevation, sloping upwardly, opposite in direction to the Black Road. The first of the Bye pass tunnels was just before the Judgment Arch, and then a number of bye pass tunnels at varying intervals as the Black Road progressed towards the Black Hole. The last of the Bye pass tunnels was the one just before the Black Hole. The millions of people on the Black Road were all walking in various groups and queues at various speeds towards the Black Hole, some slower, some quicker, and some quite quickly. The various queues and groups signified the category of sins / crimes the people were involved in their life, and their speed quantified the degree of sin they were involved in. Some people in a particular queue were interchanging positions, say a particular queue heading towards the Black Hole had XYZ with X ahead. If say X were to feel repentance, or forgiveness or some good deed; and say Z were to commit a grave sin, then X and Z would interchange positions. A force – the force of God by His mercy helped pull out people from the Black Road onto the White Road via the bye pass tunnel located at various intervals and elevate them onto the difficult White Road. This was facilitated by God when people truly changed their hearts towards the Lord, and inclined their deeds and acts in keeping with His commandments. The merciful Lord is prepared to even pull out people from just before the Black Hole, onto the White Road via the provided bye pass tunnel, with the condition that the person involved there truly repented and sought God. People were finding their walk on the White Road much more difficult due to the ascent, and were also struggling to climb up. At various intervals on the White Road were open gaping cracks, where if any one fell, would slide down onto a carry road sliding adjacently, back onto the Black Road. This signified people on the righteous path falling into temptation and then again moving away from the ways of God, thereby slipping onto the sinful road – the Black Road. The White Road culminated through the clouds at the huge Golden Gates of heaven, the final reward. At any point of time, if any one died on the Black Road, after the Judgment Arch, their soul were to proceed via the Black Hole into the eternal fire of Hell. Mercifully, the Lord has forgiven all souls dying on the Black Road, which are just before the Judgment Arch. All people at an early stage catching a bye pass tunnel onto the White Road are the Holy and blessed ones. The persons on the Black Road, dying just after the Judgment Arch, their souls would go crying very sorrowfully all the way to the Black Hole, down to Hell. If any one were to die at any location of the White Road, their soul would be taken to Heaven. The number of people on the White Road being much fewer as compared to those on the Black Road. Four known people were seen by Shinella when zooming into the crowd of people on the Black Road. Two of them were political leaders in India, one a celebrity of Bollywood, and one a close relative. (Names intentionally not revealed). Interestingly, no body other than God, exactly knows at which location of the road they are traveling, hence it becomes very important to develop the fear of God and walk in His ways. Also one single person - Satan in the form of a man was being released from the Black Hole onto the Black Road in the opposite direction towards the earth. This has got to be the Beast 666. Beware and quickly align our ways in keeping with the ways of God, so as to avoid eternal damnation!!

25 March 2012

At about 00:35 hours after night prayers the following two verses were heard by Shinella.

1 Corinthians 13:13 – “So now faith, hope and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.”

Psalm 143:12 – “And in your steadfast love you will cut off my enemies, and you will destroy all the adversaries of my soul, for I am your servant.”

Shinella then again saw the same four angels whom she saw yesterday, each standing in the same respective places with each of the family member. These have got to be the respective guardian angels. Shinella could see each of them pouring holy oil on our heads. Shane could feel immense peace as did Sunila and Sean, though no physical sign of oil appeared. Shinella was coaxed by the rest to try talking to the angels and ask them what message they had from God. Before Shinella could ask, her guardian angel said to her “Jesus loves you all”.

Shinella replied – We also love Jesus. Angel – “That is why we are here”

Shinella Question – What all do people do in heaven?

Angel Answer – After leaving earth, their souls are renewed and they get a new life.

Shinella Question – Do you play in heaven?

Angel answer – Yes we do.

Then Shinella started smiling very sweetly looking towards them, and then she laughed like a little baby for very long. When the angels departed, (only Shinella could see or hear them) also when Shinella was talking to them none of the other family heard Shinella talking to them, but only saw Shinella with a smile and in a trance looking towards the roof. Shinella explained all the above to us after the angels had departed, and also said that the all four angels started tickling her, and that is why she was laughing uncontrollably like a baby. We praised God and retired to sleep. Amen.

Purpose of the Testimony

To speak of the wondrous and miraculous way in which the Lord works and praise His holy name for the same. To reveal the understanding by each of the four family members, of being humbled to nothing, not even dust, in front of God Almighty and to describe all the miracles and signs shown to our family, by the powerful Almighty God!!

To love the Lord our God with all our mind, and all our strength and all our heart and to love every other person just as ourselves. To place the fear of God in all His children.{Please go through attached testimonies of Hell (real) and Heaven (real) and what would happen if we do not align with the ways of God.} As the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom. To reach out to all people with love and peace of God Almighty, and to tell every loving person, every child of God, that Jesus loves each and every body immensely. He even loves the biggest of sinners, criminals, as they also are His children (even though He does not love sin and the crime which is committed by them, albeit, under the influence of Satan). He is ready all the time to stretch out His loving arms and take us into His care, and forgive each and every sin of ours, if true repentance is shown and provided we seek Him and turn to Him. He is a true living God, with infinite love and mercy. He seeks for all His children without exception, and loves them all without partiality. He is crying most of the time and it pains His heart to see how His children are being tempted and taken away from Him, towards evil worldly ways, by the evil one – Satan!! He wants all His children to come to Him, in the spiritual ways and abide in His love and enjoy eternal life in His kingdom!

A RECENT LETTER EXCHANGE

Dear Shane,

'S' forwarded me the photographs of Shinella's mystical experiences that you sent last year maybe in April along with a testimony. Could you please update me at your convenience on what has happened since then?

I have recently been preparing a series of articles on such occurrences…

From: Stephens, Shane (IAE) (External) To: Michael Prabhu Sent: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 2:18 PM

Michael, Tons of things… The Lord Jesus continues His mighty blessings and messages at our place.

Would speak some time and let you know. Too much to pen down. Cheers. Shane Stephens

MY COMMENTS

The reader must have noted a few things: To verify the phenomena occurring in connection with his daughter, Shane Stephens refers to secular information on the Internet and to the Bible. He does not appeal to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Church-approved mystics, stigmatists and seers, and to Tradition.

His attitude is typically Protestant.

I quote from his letter to "G" on page 2: "Even though I am a Catholic by birth, on asking the status of Mother Mary, Lord Jesus appeared to Shinella on 28 March at 21:35 hours, smiled for the first time and replied, "I am a jealous God"… the family has no place for the rosary, or praise for any saint or blessed mother (even though we do not disrespect or disregard them for their holy way of life) in front of the one and only true living God, as He is a jealous God and wants all the praise and glory to Himself."

Once again, from his testimony on page 8, they "clearly got a message of prayer and glorification to none other than the one and only true living God with no scope for praising any saints, mother Mary or any form of idolatry".

They turned to Jesus Calls, a Protestant ministry for discernment and prayer on two occasions.

Admittedly, the spirit[s] which his daughter encounters bandy around a lot of Scripture, but we must remind ourselves that Satan knows the Bible and cited the Old Testament thrice to Jesus Himself in order to tempt and mislead Him. [Matthew 4]

Catholic interpretation of "the Beast 666" of Revelation 13:18 is not what Shane Stephen believes it to mean, see page 13.

Again, on page 12, he writes that 'Jesus' told Shinella, "Before My second coming, the Satan would come… I would allow Satan to come and to let him tempt you… and then the seventh angel would blow the trumpet and then I will come in full glory with the angels to judge the living and the dead. I will separate Myself from the earth, and take away My faithful servants with Me. The others would be left behind. The demons would be free to roam the earth."

The "Rapture", the taking away of the elect to heaven before the physical return of Christ to rule on earth for a thousand years (millenarianism) is a Protestant belief. The Catholic Church has always condemned the teachings of a secular messianism. On this subject, the Catechism of the Catholic Church states,

# 675 "Before Christ's second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. The persecution that accompanies her pilgrimage on earth will unveil the "mystery of iniquity" in the form of a religious deception offering men an apparent solution to their problems at the price of apostasy from the truth. The supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of his Messiah come in the flesh."

# 676 "The Antichrist's deception already begins to take shape in the world every time the claim is made to realize within history that messianic hope which can only be realized beyond history through the eschatological judgement. The Church has rejected even modified forms of this falsification of the kingdom to come under the name of millenarianism, especially the "intrinsically perverse" political form of a secular messianism."

Shane and his family might have met with the Archbishop of Delhi to inform him about the paranormal occurrences at their home, but he does not record their reconciling with the Catholic Church. He says nothing about Holy Mass and the Sacraments. My telephonic enquiries with other Catholics in the parish in which the Stephens family resides reveal that they have never heard of the latter.

Shane Stephens is not lying in his "testimony". I believe that it is genuine. But my personal encounters with 'mystics' in India who have either allegedly had the stigmata [I know at least one who I believe is genuine] or have had locutions, visions and experiences similar to those of Shane Stephens’ daughter lead me to conclude that the happenings at the Stephens household are under the influence of what Catholic apologists describe euphemistically as "fallen angels". The messages of these entities are always in opposition to the teachings of the Catholic Church.

Consider Shinella Stephens' visitations from spirits, November 2011 till early February 2012 prior to the first 'appearance' of 'Jesus' to her, and the teleportation of household objects. These too are not indicative of a genuine Catholic mystical experience. The list of articles and reports provided by me further below will help the reader to distinguish between false and genuine heavenly visitations.

All of the seven YouTube links to conversion testimonies provided by Shane Stephens at the end of his "testimony" are all Protestant [they are not reproduced in this report]. Stephens also provides links to four "Testimonies of Heaven & Hell", three of which are Protestant. The fourth is of Angelica Zambrano who Stephens also referred to in the "testimony", see page 8. This young Ecuadorian woman has been labeled as a fake, a liar, and a hoax. Worse still, she is an ex-Catholic turned Evangelical preacher who testifies that she visited hell and witnessed Blessed Pope John Paul II burning in its fires!

See http://www.catholicfiction.gadel.info/2011/08/more-catholic-myths-to-be-busted-soon.html#!/2011/08/more-catholic-myths-to-be-busted-soon.html and http://cathoolic.com/special-report/angelica-zambranos-testimony/.

The spirit-encounters and messages of Shinella Stephens are not Catholic either in where they originate from or in their import. Catholics reading this report are requested to pray for the deliverance of the girl.
