This is from I John 2
Now as you can see, both the above quotes are quite a bit like the Divine Mercy Prayer which is:
The following prayer was taught to the three children of Fatima by the Angel of Peace:But if anyone should sin,
we have, in the presence of the Father,
Jesus Christ, an intercessor who is just.
He is an offering for our sins,
and not for our sins only,
but for those of the whole world.
The angel recommended repeating this prayer many many times.Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore you profoundly, and I offer you the most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages and indifference with which He Himself is offended. And through the
infinite merits of His most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of You the conversion of poor sinners. Amen.
Now as you can see, both the above quotes are quite a bit like the Divine Mercy Prayer which is:
Taking the first two quotes and applying the ideas in them to the last quote of the Mercy prayer will help to understand it. And in addition, if we see that Jesus as MAN-God is in heaven before the Father, and is also on earth in all the tabernacales of the world, and understand that we offer him to the Father, his only beloved Son, for sin and reparation, we will then realize just what a powerful and effective prayer that is. For the Father would never refuse the gift of his only Son whom we present. The divinity is important since that is what makes Jesus the Father’s only Son. Body, blood, soul, is an important reflection since that is what inables him as the sacrificial lamb of God. The reason we are entitled to offer Jesus is that we are the priestly people of God by our baptism.Eternal Father, we offer you the body, blood, soul, and divinity, of your dearly beloved Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
