Heres what sounds to me like a "common sense" doctor's take (among all the confusing directives were getting from a plethora of experts) on the COVID pandemic: https://www.foxnews.com/media/scott-atlas-new-coronavirus-cases-hospitalizations-deaths-focus
Agree. Sadly it is deliberately politicized by the media--a handy weapon to attack DJT. It's all about November.
[Edited] Yes, it is fine, if someone presents information to support an opinion. Also, it is good if the information is accurate, sources are cited, and the facts have not been part of the thread "conversation" before. I don't see a problem with that--facts let the truth come out! Much better than labeling people ("naysayers?") as an automatic response. .
Fatima, do you ever consider the idea your discernment might be wrong? Or other people see the world differently, without them being enemies? [Added] Or, flinging words around, like "slander," is not charitable and not true? Have you ever heard the term, "begging the question"? You seem to think, this thread is yours. It should be your "safe space," where no one will ever contradict you. But, why? .
What is amazing, on a discussion forum, is how people accept the most outrageous claims without batting an eye. Mark Mallett and friends claim to have figured out the entire present and future history of the world, as revealed by Heaven, and present it in slick graphical form! They have chosen a selection of "prophets," many unvetted, and present them as a "prophetic consensus." This consensus is their own invention--nothing the Church considers! The Church released its guidelines, which I do not find mentioned on CTTK... curiously. They don't take questions or comments on their website. They are "self-appointed" experts. A reasonable person can question their "discernment" (Peter Bannister's book, dedicated to Charlie Johnson, a false prophet). I would take your criticism, if you were to say, also, why do people post pages of these messages, day after day? But, the criticism is one-sided! .
While I agree that some here on MOG (foolishly) staunchly promote the messages from these "new"seers and label them as authentic. (which is risky since we cant be sure that they are not deceptions of the devil), and while I think that Mark and Daniel are "authentic" (my opinion) Catholic scholars to one degree or another,they too can be deceived . Ive said before... I think they are wrong to promote all these" newbies" as if they are all from God! They MAY be??? And they may NOT be!!! And I never get the feeling that Mark and friends are "self appointed experts" and are ramming their made up propaganda down our throats .They have clearly stated that they have gathered together a "consensus" (is that their word or yours?) of prophecies from many sources( biblical, Church fathers, saints ,etc) and put them in chronological order These are NOT their prophecies, but church approved prophecies. They simply put in the time to collect them all into one 'timeline" Now this is MY opinion..take it or leave it! As to questions ..Im pretty sure you can email them. And speaking of taking or leaving ...I am gonna leave and take a break from this topic for awhile.Ive spent VALUABLE rosary, chaplet prayer time chatting here when there's WORK that needs to be done.!!
I avoid posting on this thread because it can be contentious at times. But I do read it to see posts and links from people more knowledgeable about modern prophets and their "read" on them. It is interesting. I have my own internal feelings about things but I like to get more than one view on what prophetic messages are out there. I don't think the Lord would leave us orphans at any time and especially in these times. The Lord steers me to certain things I think that might be profitable to me. I am not a follower of CTTK site. I enjoy reading MM but I don't always agree with his blogs. I have listened to several of his most recent videos on the timeline and found some interesting and some not so much. I find his timeline interesting but not definitive. I believe Mark has stated that this is their (the people that run the website CTTK) understanding of the messages and a timeline was put together with their best guesses. I remember him saying that it is not exactly what is going to happen but it is a educated understanding. I could be wrong but I believe MM has stated that on one of the videos I watched. You can't fault him for posting his understanding of what is going on. You don't have to believe it. I think MM is spot on for the masks. The masks are not what they appear to be. They give people a false sense of security and a overall feeling of fear. I now see shaming signs on stores here in AZ. They anger me, they really do. The signs that say you are "protecting others" by wearing your masks. No I am not. When I see people in swimming pools with masks, when I see people coughing and then adjusting their masks and handling food items, when I see people scratching their noses through their masks and then handing credit cards to no gloves employees who hand it back to them, not wiping surfaces, etc.....I am not risking anyone by not wearing a mask and not touching my face and adhering to social distancing. There is too much information out there. Unfortunately it is hard to discern what is truth and what is not. We have to have faith and that is a hard thing these days. It isn't hard to have faith in God but it is hard to have faith in the information we read daily. Just my 2 cents
Marian Movement of Priests. Thank God for this for the sake of so many Marian priests. They have their annual international gathering in Italy and there are national directors as well. There are the lay/family prayer groups. They meditate upon the messages along with their prayers.
I agree with most of what you are saying here, but I differ on the last sentence in this regard. It is not God who has made it hard to discern, it is all his naysayers who cast doubt to many who are beginning to understand what God has been saying over the past 100 years and more emphatically in the past decade or two. One of the ways to discern true prophets of our time is to look at their background. On CTTK the founders of the site did their due diligence by giving a good preview/overview of the alleged messengers and the fruits of their mission from early on. They were often ordinary people who began to receive extraordinary confirmation from the invisible world of God about events unfolding and soon to unfold. None of these alleged prophets chose their path, but chose to take a course different from Jonah who took the first ship out of harbor because he did not want to bring God's messages to the people...... well you know the rest of the story. Many/most today will not hear God's prophets until it is to late. They do not bring news that tickles the ears. They do not make our near future one of keeping our comfortable life style. The alleged prophets on CTTK have been well vetted by a very educated, prayerful and discerning founders and they give ample justification why each of those on the web site deserve to be heard. Their prophetic consensus lends much credibility and I, like many others, find our God and his Blessed Mother and St. Michael doing all they can to wake up a slumbering church and world to what God is doing and going to do all the way until the Lord's Prayer is fulfilled and His will on earth shall be done as it is in heaven by all His angels and His saints (the Era of Peace). Our Lady of Fatima brought my faith understanding nearly 40 years ago and her rosary has sustained it and has kept it from fading. Her daily rosary will also keep one from the deception of the evil one. Heaven has done all it can to prepare those with ears to hear, it is up to us whether we have done so with the talents we have been given or not. If one has not accepted God's prophets at this point, it is likely they won't till the events unfold. But recall scripture: Luke 17:[26] And as it came to pass in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. [27] They did eat and drink, they married wives, and were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark: and the flood came and destroyed them all. [28] Likewise as it came to pass, in the days of Lot: they did eat and drink, they bought and sold, they planted and built. [29] And in the day that Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. [30] Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man shall be revealed.
I was told recently, that because the virus is so minute, the wearing of a mask is like erecting chicken wire to keep out mosquitos. I don't see the mask however as part of a diabolical plan, it is governments trying to provide a false sense of security
Sorry for the delay Byron...what makes me think she is false...the message itself. The reported message from our Lady speaks of evil in America, the world elite, earthquakes in Italy a France. What do we not know already? Did our Blessed Mother point to her son...Jesus. The dissonance of the message. I just know my spirit says...false.
Pretty in depth analysis of the situation we find ourselves in these days: Mark Mallett's latest: WHY TALK ABOUT SCIENCE? https://www.markmallett.com/blog/why-talk-about-science/
And how often has Emmett O”Regan been wrong? So you and HH believe everything you read from unveiling the apocalypse??? Now I get it.
You both prefer O’Regan over Mallett. But both have their own views. You can’t side with one and speak ill of the other. O’Regan is not all knowing. He’s made his mistakes. Geesh!
In Sinu Jesu – Soon I Will Give the World a Sign Our Lord to a Benedictine Monk, May 16, 2010: Yes, I have united your heart to the heart of My servant Benedict XVI, and this from the very beginning of his pontificate. Listen well to all his teachings. Receive them and make them known, for he is My messenger and My victim-priest in the midst of a world that closes its ears to My word and that still derides the mystery of the Cross. Soon I will give the world a sign that will convert many hearts. Many others will remain closed and, in their refusal to listen and to be healed of the ravages of sin, they will be like hearts turned to stone, and incapable of responding to My redeeming love. This is My sorrow: that so many, even within My Church and in the ranks of the clergy, My chosen ones and My friends, have hardened their hearts against Me and, to My immense grief, will die in their sins.
*********!!!!!!!!! Alicja Lenczewska – Preparing a Remnant in the Divine Will Jesus to Alicja Lenczewska on October 18, 1988: My daughter, be not afraid, and be courageous in carrying out My will. Say that a new epoch is coming, in which the Holy Spirit will directly guide the hearts of My children, and Mary will take care and watch over them in great nearness of heart. Do not be afraid, for I have made future things known to you and revealed my intention for the healing of My Church. The means of spiritual development and worship up until now were good for the years that are now ending. The means and worship established by people obedient to My will were suited to a time of stability, a time of peace and normal life for My people. They have turned into a crust, schematic and merely formal, covering an enormous void and the betrayal of their God. And they are, as in the time of My Son, a blanched sepulcher of faith and daily living with the Father. The time is coming for the breaking of the crust covering up the living hearts of My children. I thirst for hearts that are alive, fervent, pulsating with love and with devotion to the Father, who is Love and Life. Therefore I am preparing My children for a living faith. Therefore I am teaching how to live with Me at every moment and everywhere. The world is Mine, although defiled by the pride and vanity of Satan. I desire holiness of life in the world in harmony with My will and love. Just as a newborn cannot live without its mother, so My children ought to desire nothing other than Me and My will. I do not want ceremony and to be addressed with your lips [alone]. I do not want your human initiatives and activity. I do not want the mortifications for Me that you have invented. I want your love and submission to My will. Only such a faith and relationship with Me will save you in the days of destruction and purification. I will teach you spontaneity, living by faith, honoring Me in spirit and in truth in the conditions and situations of your daily lives. I want to prepare you so that you might cling to Me and remain faithful to Me in the days when the sky will burn and the earth experience destruction. I want you to be able to love Me and trust Me when My churches lie in ruins and My priests are scattered. I want you then to be able to accept all oppression and suffering out of love for Me and to remain faithful in prayer, and I want the Eucharistic sacrifice of My Son to be enfolded within your hearts. I have ordained my most faithful and meekest children as priests in spirit for the most difficult time awaiting humanity. And I desire that My love might save and heal the world through them, that it might be poured out into the hearts of My children. Do not fear, you who wish to be My light in days of darkness. Do not fear, but trust and allow Me myself to be in you and, through you, to be salvation for souls who are fearful, lost, helpless, since new life will be born in the agony of what has been, which is already heading for collapse. My daughter, do not be afraid to transmit these words; do not be afraid to speak of what I have made know to you. Do not fear, for you are Mine and nothing will happen without My will. Peace be with you, My child. Continue in faith and love, and with hope await the coming of My Son, who is your Bridegroom. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ............ Running to more than 1000 printed pages, Alicja's two-volume spiritual journal (Testimony (1985-1989) and Exhortations (1989-2010)) was published posthumously thanks to the efforts of the Archbishop of Szczecin Andrzej Dzięga, who established a theological commission for the evaluation of her writings, which were granted the Imprimatur by Bishop Henryk Wejman. Since their appearance in 2015 they have become best-sellers among Polish Catholics and are frequently quoted in public by clergy both for their penetrating insights into the spiritual life and their revelations concerning the contemporary world. https://www.countdowntothekingdom.com/why-alicja-lenczewska/#messages
Mother of God Forum seems to be the battleground for many who side with one theologian over another, Byron. If you follow the link from M " The time is coming for the breaking of the crust covering up the living hearts of My children. I thirst for hearts that are alive, fervent, pulsating with love and with devotion to the Father, who is Love and Life." What does the Father mean by breaking of the crust? Our attachment to this world, do you think earthtoangels? Very powerful paragraphs.
