Has the lesser tribulation begun in 2020?

'Since the beginning of 2020 the signs of the times have exploded all around us perhaps the greatest sign is the suppression of the Mass an unprecented event in History - it is perhaps a unique sign that the tribulations long forecast have begun in earnest'

I have always argued on this forum that the triblations would only being when every person in the world is affected - as at present with the corona-virus and the inept response of most governments is going to have massive economic repurcussions and instability -- I can only see really, really difficult economic days ahead with associated political and societal upheavals.

There may be no turning back - have we crossed from Mercy to Justice?

I believe we have entered the Times of God's Justice -- we are at present only at the begining.

Thoughts welcome.

 

These time may be God’s most merciful. A beginning wake up call for all. I don’t think the door of mercy closes until after the illumination and we all pick a side. But it sure feels like we are turning a corner that may make it impossible to return to the same place. Sadly, its going to take more than just this to turn most back to God. He needs to step in and really show us He exists and Jesus is the true saviour. It’s going to get a lot harder than just sitting a home.

 

I sense that the beginning of a series of chain reactions in relation to prophecy may have begun and that we are on the cusp between the time of mercy and justice. It feels very surreal right now and only a solid grounding in faith and prayer will help us through whatever lies ahead. The lockdown is providing us with a pause. I see this ‘pause’ as a gift from the Lord to prepare spiritually and to have our lamps lit, before there is a shift in gear and things begin to shake. “....Satan has demanded to sift all of you like wheat, but I have prayed for you that your own faith may not fail....” Lk22:31-32

 

Exactly. And there is more. If humanity repent (and I hope it will), there will be just a few bad events and then the relatively short period of peace, which will last until the arrive of the antichrist. I have seen people around me waking up. This Covid-19 is functioning like a PRE WARNING for everybody, even to the people who do not believe in God.

 

I believe God's mercy will be open till sometime after the Warning. Father Michel said that period would be about 6 weeks.

I believe we are in the minor warnings, which are a period of mercy, but also a period of tribulations to wake up His children. This will go on and get much much worse till early 2022 when the Warning comes. Then the major tribulations come and the time of mercy ends.

 

So what do you think is coming in the Fall? Fr Michel warned something is coming to store food and water. I wish he would just tell us.

 

I feel that we are being put through a purification with the Churches being closed and most souls having no access to the Sacraments. It is like God has taken away the Lampstand (Church) temporarily.....I hope. And this feels to me like God is allowing us a time out so to speak, like when a parent grounds a child as a punishment in the hope of getting through to them that they have been disobedient.

I hope and pray it is possible for the whole Church to invite everyone to go to Confession once the Churches are open again, so we all get back on the right track. And start anew, with a firm resolution to correct our behaviour, and return to keeping the Ten Commandments. Otherwise, the next time we could be left without the Sacraments. At Akita, we were warned the sacrament of Confession would stop, if we did not amend our lives. This is happening at the moment for most of us; but I believe it could be permanent if the message at Akita is to taken seriously. I have been remembering those who are dying while this coronavirus is ongoing, for there must be a lot of souls dying without the Extreme Unction, and only God knows if their souls are saved, or lost if in mortal sin. So sad.

I ask Jesus of Divine Mercy, Who said the greater the sinner the greater right they have to His Mercy. I ask Him, Lord can You extend Your Mercy to those who die without the last Sacrament to be allowed supernatural Pardon, even if they spend more time in purgatory, at least they are saved.

Mark Mallet has done a video about preparing or prepping. I was interested to hear what he had to say. It turns out, we should be sensible and make reasonable provision like we would if there was severe weather or other reasons we can not get to a shop to get supplies. I am using my own words to share what he said, and was relieved; because you wonder if we are not trusting God when we put extra by just in case. Sounds like commons sense is acceptable to God. That was a relief.

I don't think we are in a Chastisement to be honest; it is more like a purification, which is merciful compared with what we deserve. Of course for those who try to keep on the narrow path, it seems unfair to suffer with those who are stubborn and refuse to believe their sinful behaviour means anything to God. But this offers us a chance to accept the suffering as Jesus accepted suffering while He was not guilty; but He suffered for the guilty. We can unite what we suffer with Jesus suffering, and help in the salvation of souls, so beloved by Jesus. IMHO

 

I will speak to this in a private message with you

 

My gut feeling is that the US will devolve into civil war this fall, both political and racial. The economy will gather steam for collapse... there will be blood in the streets and martial law. Only my opinion though.

 

Fr. Michel said there would be a big event in the month of Rosary which is October

 

care to share?

 

I'm also thinking about this scenario, a Trump victory means closer and closer of overturning the Roe vs Wade

 

The overturn of Roe vs Wade will not happen by mere men unfortunately... it will take the destruction of the evil law itself...hence... downfall..

 

Definitely could see something like this in October leading up to the election especially if some large indictments are coming down on the deep state people. I don't think Biden will be the candidate and actually think it will be Hillary and Michelle Obama as VP candidate. If some of the large indictments come to people associated with the Clinton's and Obama's and not them yet, then their empire begins to crumble and all out media war begins and thus could lead to actual violence in the streets. Getting a little concerned about food supply shortages too now but then again I know we have more beef and pork in cold storage than we have ever had before but could that be delayed in getting to the people?

 

Pray for President Trump going into November elections they will do anything to stop him.

JFK

 

What are you implying here? The US is not the President alone. There is the house and senate. The Republican Party only controls the Senate by a small majority. The President and Senate alone cannot overturn Roe V Wade. It involves much more than that. The last 3.5 years was huge in the changing of the US Supreme Court to where conservative judges now have the majority. This was one of the largest threats the US faced in Trump vs Clinton and it remains important for the next 4 years because there is a possibility for 2 more judges to be named. Had Clinton won in 2016, the Supreme Court would have been liberal.

Once again I wonder why you make negative comments/inferences on things in the US when you may not understand the politics of the land.

 

You didn't say all this in your short comment. It read very snarky. Plus the politics aren't as easy. It will require new cases to be brought forth most likely state by state basis to begin to undo the evils of Roe v Wade. I really urge you to pray and think before you comment because once again, your posts seem to constantly show a disdain for the US and its people.

 

The sin of abortion is worldwide.

 

Abortion is the one atrocity that just makes my blood boil and honestly the one sin I pray to God to end or to end us because we don't deserve to live when these awful things are being done to the most innocent of lives. These sins are far greater than what the Sodomites were doing and at a far larger scale. When does our fire from the sky come. Lord have mercy on us all! Read recently that now states are even looking to make new laws around a mother having a certain of time even after the birth to decide if she wants to terminate. If something like that ever passes, true Christians better rise up to stop at all costs period!

 

I see this as a test. For both individuals and all the governments in the world.

How do you shut down countries? Now they know? Where is the rebel hot spots? Now they know. How many countries will follow UN rules? Now they know. Can we effectively shut down Catholic Church? Now they know.

Each region of world is being tested to see if it can be controlled by one governing body. Not only is it possible but they are getting a test run.

And if Gates and globalist gets there way...implanted vaccine chips is goal. But remember with 5G...all those chips can be used to keep medical records, finance records, internet records as well as personal location records. They will have full knowledge of what, where and when. They will also have capacity to wipe out your finances and make you a criminal fugitive. But even worse...it could be created to actually harm you.

But this is also blessing

Know we know what it takes to survive. Prayer and Church should take priority.

But we learned paper products are scarce. Pastas, rice, beans and flour is first to go. The meat crises is about to start in USA.

We need to try to find like minded individuals who will help us through crisis.

If we are completely alone, we need to be sure we can communicate with others at least through internet.

This is actually the great separation. We can see in real time the lies of media, the government and even our Church.

If the crusades came today...I would join. But with Bishops and Cardinals protecting evil. Who could I trust. At the end of the day. Those that protect evil are evil. That means a lot of Bishops and Cardinals have rejected God.

Interesting time for br al. Do we just get popcorn and watch things happen before our eyes. Or do we actually become rockstar saints.

I know we are all saints but maybe it’s time to push the bar.

My words are not to scare or cause anxiety.

Be Happy, Pray and live/enjoy the moment. God has allowed us to live in a special time.
