The Warning comes in an even year and The Miracle probably within a short time after. It seems the Miracle will happen in an April. The warning must then happen in the preceeding time of that year. Therefore The Rescue and The Warning and The Miracle are discrete events. I am not saying they are unrelated, just different. I believe in the Warning and The Miracle. If the warning is not heeded then will come a terrible punishment directly from God. I don't know what comes after that but I hope I die a good peaceful death before the Chastisement.
I like Glenns latest post. In it he says that when he asked Conchita what is the most important thing we must do she replied "Keep the Commandments." I am sure Charlie would agree. I sure do.
I see the error that I made in reading your post about the end of 2017 but your response was a bit cheeky, "happy hunting".
Joe, If you say your a prophet... you walk the walk. Comparing Charlie to Padre Pio and Mother Theresa is a joke. Charlie brought this on himself. If someone says they are a messenger of God...all bets are off. You walk the walk. Charlie is a very insightful news man. But by declaring himself a messenger of God...he enters into the hornets net. I trust and enjoy many people on this site. I believe many MOG members have had mystical experiences. And i respect everyone here. But the moment you say you are a messenger of God. Everything changes. The interesting thing is Padre Pio and Mother Theresa never said they were messengers of God. Brother al
Yes and that has rather been the emphasis from the Luz de Maria messages of late....to know and obey the Commandments; read scripture; continue to love and sacrifice. I think this emphasis lately in many places could be due to the fact that in the near future we must rely on our developed Faith, being on our own for a period of time, since we will probably not have an "organizational" type Church to rely upon or hear from. Even Natan's NDE says something similar....the Jews, to be faithful, also must now know and obey the Torah and perform "Mitzvahs" from the heart because the Messiah will know and judge the hearts.....even, "smell" the hearts of each....no phony outward appearances only!
Well said, Joe. All of it. I think your point about Charlie submitting himself to the three Opus Dei spiritual directors for more than twenty years is significant. Further, Charlie submitted himself, in complete obedience, to the three priest commission appointed by Archbishop Aquila. Part of their task has been to monitor all Charlie's writing and interaction with readers and commenters. They did so for the year of investigation and continue to do so to this day. It's also important to note, as I understand, that those who help Charlie on his website had prepared to take down all of Charlie's prophetic material had Archbishop Aquila made that demand. Charlie was completely ready to do whatever his local ordinary asked of him. Truly, far and above anyone's opinion here, including my own, it matters very much in the Eyes of Heaven what the local ordinary declares. I certainly have not been privy to the details of Charlie's mystical experiences. I'm completely ignorant of most of it. Not so his spiritual directors. Not so for the three priest panel who poured over these documents, studying the details, finding nothing contrary to faith and morals and then reporting their findings to the Archbishop. In today's world, with prophetic words often avoided by many prelates, it is highly significant to me that Archbishop Aquila gave his nod of approval for Charlie to continue as he is. Archbishop Aquila is not demanding that God work with Charlie in the ways the Archbishop prefers. Rather, the Archbishop has received all possible input for understanding the ways God IS giving input to Charlie and guiding Charlie. (Not saying anyone here needs to believe this. I certainly and obviously do believe. Archbishop Aquila has found enough evidence to keep the door wide open and discover that God just might be doing something new in Charlie.) Of course, caution was recommended to that faithful that they refrain from placing too much emphasis on Charlie's prophetic input. Our focus, as in all authentic utterances, ever needs to be on living a sacramental life, rich in prayer and growing in spiritual knowledge and wisdom through the ordinary means, such as retreats, good catechesis, spiritual reading, spiritual direction etc. Archbishop Aquila's decision is a major factor in my decision to give Charlie my attention and continue to wait and see.
You are correct, Joe. Charlie has not said this. He has said that the Rescue involves an intervention by Our Lady which will be miraculous and visible to all. Again, after studying prophecy for the last twenty-five years and visiting many a Marian shrine where Our Lady has appeared, including belief in Rue de Bac, Fatima, Garabandal, Lourdes, Amsterdam, Akita, Medjugorje, OLOE, and Betania - among others - there is much to be reconciled in encompassing the many details of the various prophetic words. God ALONE can and He will. In the meanwhile, I think there will continue to be great disagreement as people continue to discern. So many times, this juncture is reached: we agree to disagree. It's often been said here: time will tell. Amen.
Amen, Joe. On the three occasions I was with the Servant of God Maria Esperanza, she often spoke of a time in the future when we will be gathered in small Eucharistic communities.
Well, I tell you what happened to me years ago. I 'm quite sure you don't care about it a bit but I tell anyway. It was year 2002/2003. I had got my first Internet connection at home some months earlier and really did not know anything about blogs, forums and internet communities. One night I had a very special dream. Briefly: I was at home looking from my upstairs window and saw very very far away some creepy creature coming - and I knew he/it was coming to my home and he was extremely bad... He was dressed in green robe and carried some kind of ark in his hands. It was like the Ark of Covenant but smaller and full of symbols from different religions. I could not see his face. Of course I panicked and ran downstairs to protect my home. I just locked our frontdoor and thought what other security measures there would be needed. Suddenly I noticed a big number different people behind me, wanting to help me. I remember only three of them, two men and one woman. At that moment it was absolutely clear that those people were foreigners, not Finnish. Much later I understood that they were members of some Christian Internet community. It took about 10 years to find out those three persons in my dream. I tell only about Charlie. In February 2014 I was very worried about the future... my sister had got sick with cancer and one day I just had to ask Our Mother: "What time we live in? How much we have time? How much my sister, how much we others have time..." The date was 26.2.2014. Couple of hours later I got my answer: I found some information of Charlie J. in Spirit Daily. The path to that info was very clear and special, no doubts. I read the summary of Charlie's teachings and found out some very interesting connections to Russian prophecy, familiar to me. It was first time I found those connections with Catholic prophecy, and I was very impressed. I believe my Mother really answered to me that day because I asked with all my heart (I was filled with sadness because of my sister and Mother knew it). Then it took about 5 months to find Charlie's blog, he was not as famous as now...and I did only some searches, found nothing and let it be. In the summer 2014 Mark Mallett told about Charlie's blog. Very soon I understood: this is the community in my dream. Some time later I found Charlies' photo and was amazed: this is the man in my dream, standing at the front of the whole crowd. Besides him was a young lady and behind them a black gentleman. I think I know who they are but I'm not going to tell it now. This proof is enough for me. I have read his blog for 2,5 years and have written some comments, too. Charlie's blog is absolutely the most friendly place among blogs and forums I have visited over many years. Of course there are some hot debates every now and then but never malice. The whole atmosphere there is different than usually: caring, attentive. My Mother gave this community to me and she gives blessed gifts. I really don't understand about WHICH Charlie some of you are talking... To me he is a nice and plain-spoken fellow, usual enough, easy to trust - and fits the Finnish taste. I don't have so far had no reason to doubt his authenticity. This is my testimony, once again.
No offense meant. I was just saying if you can find it please quote it. Some contributors seem to attempt to provoke a response. Some by subtle means such as disingenuous commentary and question. They like to goad and irritate. I admit I am easily goaded but it exhausts me. Others use much less subtle means. I am not in their number. Some, not including you, unreasonably expect others to search for them. If I have the time and energy and knowledge I will help when I can. Hope this helps you. Peace.
I read your post very late at night and I truly misunderstood what you had stated. Peace to you also.
That is a very good testimony of the fruits of Charlie's work. I still don't know too much about Charlie but what I have found with him is a faithful evangelist who, like Mark Mallett, has avoided being drawn into criticism of the Church and Pope Francis. Ordinarily I wouldn't have paid too much attention to him as he "talks too much" for me!! That's not intended as a criticism, it's just a reason why I haven't read or listened to him too much! I became interested in him mainly because of his critics on this forum! I thought, why are they so bothered about him and his predictions? That question remains unanswered for me. The prediction about the election is fascinating because even if Trump does proceed to be inaugurated and takes office, the election has been very unusual and strange. But why Charlie has been geting the criticism before January 20 has arrived puzzles me.
Yes FS your are quite right to say that when a person claims direct Divine communication for his messages everything changes. And so it should. Charlie says his messages come from his angel. I am not aware of him publicly trying to add credence to them by saying "God told me this" etc. But even if he did, from what I know, it would make me sit up and pay closer attention. Charlie admits to the human limits of his ability to fully understand and transmit his revelations. But he does his best as have all prophets in their witness and their warnings down the ages to the present day. Padre Pio did say he was given direct messages from Heaven - he even put it in writing to the girls at Garabandal. It was Mother Teresa's own direct messages that changed the direction of her vocation and the way she counselled others. Charlie suffers every day with his spinal condition yet he offers it up and continues on his mission. He is a man of prayer and fasting. He certainly walks the walk. He does not accept abuse that threatens his ability to carry the messages entrusted to him. Like all prophets he suffers in the performance of his God given duty, given mostly through the message of an angel but also in private communication with God as have all prophets. And he is subject to the same stricture if his words prove to be empty. If they are not fulfilled they are not from God. Our only responsibility is to discern in prayerful study. We are not obliged to accept or reject. We can simply ponder his words in our hearts .....if we want. But if we choose to reject them we better have good reason. Luke 16 deals with this. John the Baptist features in todays readings. After John came something new. And in these end of times we are also experiencing a way in which things greater than ever are being proclaimed and accomplished just as Jesus predicted. Meanwhile we get on with our lives, our loves and our daily duties as best as we can.
I don't get a good vibe around this Charlie Johnston. Comes across as someone trying to pass along political predictions as messages from "his angel" and private revelation. Didn't his local bishop issue a warning over him?
You are right Joe...but you are wrong about Mother Theresa and Padre Pio. They did have experiences but kept it to themselves. But to each his own. Your friend
Yes. See: http://www.ncregister.com/daily-new...ston-continues-ministry-despite-denver-archdi Also: http://us12.campaign-archive1.com/?u=335332b58bd4d41fdbc327a17&id=e91e1eb696&e=4eeb4e1561 Plus bishops in New Orleans, Illinois, North Dakota, etc.
Thank you FS. I know you are my friend and I am pleased to know this. We just see this differently. As grown ups do and stay friends.
The first link is unreliable in its authorship and the second only advises caution. It neither refutes nor condemns. But you know that don't you. You know the truth.
Joe If you think Charlie is a supporter of your interpretation of Garabandal then think again my friend. like I said I have been on his site a long time before he entered your optic. The case of hermet gosnell for Charlie is the most likely instance of the warming. What you, Glenn or others in the gang have thought about the "sequence" of events matters not. Charlie's chart differs considerably. your ignorance of this is perhaps only excusable by the fact that you have just come across his material.
But that's ok, because we don't really know how Garabandal will come about. Charlie has his version. And maybe he's right. After all Joey died before seeing. That was not how most thought it was going to turn out.
