    This is a difficult situation. The msm is absolutely rabid with pushing fear porn out there. Makes me wonder really.....what is going on outside the agenda.

    The virus is real. That is a fact. And it is bad in pockets of the world, another fact. It will get worse and then better. That's how the numbers run (the data) with illness. It is mathematical.

    Here in the US the Fed govt seems to be returning power to the states to deal with this. Fed level "recommends" and then states do or don't follow the recommendations. This seems like pre Civil- War the States are in charge handling of a situation. But we have a much larger population then our founders and early Americans have. But it does seem to be working in most areas.

    And then we have China. Late in telling anyone anything. They are complicit, imo, in regards to this whole thing. All the speculation aside, China is at fault and the communist regime cares little about anything except power and money. Very telling. Of course, this isn't new because we all know how completely horrid communism is.

    The world is almost completely reliant on China and it's "stuff". Heck, the US has given up manufacturing drugs, in some cases, medical equipment, etc. Why are we surprised that we have shortages and that China isn't "sharing"? The world needs to cut ties on their dependence with China. Period, the end!

    The world now has a situation where China is not shipping goods fast enough or at all and the virus is becoming out of control. Hospitals are becoming overwhelmed in the higher effected areas. I am reading the respirators are the thing that are a large problem with the sickest patients. And China isn't stepping up. They don't have to because they are at the top of the supply chain and communist governments historically are selfish and greedy, covetous and care little about populations, even their own.

    And then we have the Gates foundation. Who seems to be always in the news with their "save the planet" helpful hints for living programs. Except, there are dozens upon dozens of news articles of them partnering with questionable companies to produce vaccines and medicines to "help" people, especially in the developing countries. They have partnered themselves to many seedy characters (GAVI) to produce legislation and vaccines to under developed nations that have proven to harm....HPV deaths, untested vaccines, sterilization en mass through vaccines. Gates himself is not silent about this. He wants population control, anyway possible. He is nuts.

    So, NO, for me and my family for ANYTHING from or linked to the Gates Foundation. They are evil pure and simple.
    And Amazon is not a warm and fuzzy company either, imo.

    I may be alone on this in regards to the virus. While I think this is concerning and scary on one level, I also have to think about the unprecedented response to a virus that has less deaths under normal circumstances than the seasonal flu. The response is overkill and I have to wonder about that. The increase of cases is solely do to the Chinese govt and the supply chain breakdown. What else is going on?

  6. No, actually not......

    I don't know why people are still looking for a natural, astronomical event.

    Conchita's words clearly state this will not be a natural phenomenon explained by science.
    When she says it will be like two stars colliding, she does not say it will look like two stars colliding. To me it is clear she is just illustrating that it won't hurt us physically but we will see it...Just like two far off stars colliding. What do we see? Our conscience, all the good and bad we have done.

    Read her statement...
    "No. To me, it's like two stars… that crash and make a lot of noise and a lot of light but they don't fall… It's something that's not going to hurt us but we're going to see it. In that moment, we're going to see our conscience."

    Q. We have heard that some say the Warning may be a natural phenomenon but
    will be used by God to speak to mankind. Is this true?

    A.
    The Warning is something supernatural and will not be explained by science. It will be seen and felt.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    February, 1977
    Question: Would you repeat for us what you know about the Warning?
    Answer: … I am not able to say what it consists of but I am able to say what it will be like, more or less. It is a phenomenon which will be seen and felt in all the world and everywhere; I have always given as an example that of two stars that collide.This phenomenon will not cause physical damage, but it will horrify us because at that very moment we will see our souls and the harm we have done. It will be as though we were in agony but we will not die by its effects but perhaps we will die of fright or shock to see ourselves. …

    Question: It (the Warning) is not going to hurt you?
    Answer: No. To me, it's like two stars… that crash and make a lot of noise and a lot of light but they don't fall… It's something that's not going to hurt us but we're going to see it. In that moment, we're going to see our conscience. You're going to see everything wrong that you're doing.

    Something to consider: If Pope Francis should die, and a quorum of cardinals cannot assemble WITHIN THE WALLS OF VATICAN CITY by the end of the 25th day after the death of the Pope, a valid conclave cannot be held. This is per the most recent Apostolic Constitution. I used to think that there would be some kind of civil unrest to keep a quorum from assembling; now it could be accomplished by difficulties in air travel, or cardinals being denied entry into Italy because they may be carriers of the Wuhan virus.

    If a quorum cannot be assembled, and a "conclave" is still held, any pope they elect would be a false pope (NOT an antipope) without the charism of infallibility. Otherwise, the Vatican Secretary of State would handle the day-to-day operations of the Vatican without being able to do things that are reserved to the Pope, such as naming bishops. This would be the case until a worldwide synod of bishops could be re-assembled to re-constitute the Papacy and the Church.

    This would not be the first time the Church would function for an extended period without a Pope. The last time was the 3-year period when the cardinals basically partied and quarreled among themselves until St. Gregory (soon to be POPE St. Gregory) locked them all in a church and cut a hole in the roof through which food was lowered, until they elected a new pope. (When they saw the hole being cut in the roof of the church, one cardinal was heard to remark, "They can't do that! It might let in the Holy Spirit!") It was the first "con clave" (under the key) and it ended with the cardinals deciding to give the job to this Gregory fellow.

    No. No "Wow" about it. The clip is over 10 minutes long, yet after 4 minutes I started timing things. It's the same 50-55 second video being looped. Any idea WHERE in China this was supposedly filmed?

    Here is part of an article about this earthquake which occurred in Croatia yesterday including some of the damage that it caused.

    Croatia quake injures 17 amid partial coronavirus lockdown
    By DARKO BANDICyesterday https://apnews.com/3f05271ed03ec32a04c96b3587420fdb
    ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) — A strong earthquake in Croatia on Sunday caused panic, the evacuation of hospitals and widespread damage including to the capital’s iconic cathedral — all amid a partial coronavirus lockdown.

    A 15-year-old was reported to be in critical condition and 16 other people were injured, authorities said.

    The European seismological agency, EMSC, said the 5.3 earthquake struck a wide area north of the capital, Zagreb, at 6:23 a.m. (0523 GMT). The epicenter was 7 kilometers (4 miles) north of Zagreb at a depth of 10 kilometers (6 miles).

    At least four weaker temblors followed the initial quake.

    Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic said the earthquake was the biggest in Zagreb in the last 140 years.

    Many buildings cracked and walls and rooftops were damaged. Streets were littered with debris. Concrete slabs fell on cars and chimneys landed in front of entrances.

    Footage from the scene showed mothers dressed in nightgowns hugging their newborn babies in a parking lot as they evacuated a damaged maternity hospital amid freezing temperatures. The women, newborn babies and incubators were being moved to a new location with the help of the army.

    Zagreb’s iconic cathedral was also damaged, with the top of one of its two spires collapsing. The cathedral was rebuilt after it toppled in the 1880 earthquake.

  16. The Prophetic Pulse: A New ‘Word’ From ‘1990 Prophecy’

    March 27, 2020 by sd

    [​IMG]

    There are many unusual things — ironies — at this time. There was the rainbow on March 25 — Feast of the Annunciation — above the main basilica at Lourdes, right beside the massive crown — the “corona” — representing her queenship atop the building.

    In Scripture, the rainbow is most famous as the signal from God to Noah that a huge, world-changing chastisement was over. It was a promise. Is that the case now, or is it simple reassurance from the Blessed Mother — from Heaven — that the Madonna is with us, even though her shrine there — Lourdes! — is closed.

    At Fátima, which is also largely shuttered, twenty-four nations were represented at a recent consecration to her. This reminds us of the request, at Fatima, way back in 1917, before a similar pandemic, for the consecration of Russia, and subsequent Vatican consecrations of the world. Neither Russia nor the United States were represented at the recent consecration, nor, perhaps tellingly, was Italy. (It is a given that China also was not present.)

    Most ironic, as we approach Holy Week, was the recent closure to the public, because of the virus, of the place most representative of Easter: the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

    In the news today, one outlet quoted an official as saying that coronavirus will be the crisis that “defines our generation.”

    We would not go so fast.

    Other things — other purifying things — are in store.

    On December 3, 1990, an unusual locution received during a dream yielded remarkable alleged prophecies of the future. Known as the “1990 prophecy,” it was received by a person who has steadfastly insisted on anonymity (supposedly from an angel and Christ) and was followed fourteen years later — on December 22, 2004 — by a second one, and then six years later, in 2010, by a third major alleged utterance (for your discernment), and another in 2017.

    To review: the original revelation in 1990 said there would be chastisements that “will differ according to regions.” It is not yet clear if those referred to major regional events such as the Australian wildfire, the Asian tsunami, or U.S. hurricanes, or events yet to come. We guess it involves larger future happenings. It claimed that “many inventions of mankind will be broken down and there will be more of a peasant attitude and way of life everywhere.” We’ll have an in-depth “special report” on prophecy next week. It said, among other things, that New York City was “under a cloud.”

    That was followed fourteen years later, at Christmastime, in 2004, by one that among other things said, “There is going to be a major disruption in a region of the world that will affect everyone…” It also said “the event to come will surprise everyone who has offered a prognostication, and will show even recalcitrant scientists, though not all, that there is a fundamental alarm in Heaven over their arrogant and wayward course.” Days later came the Asian tsunami.

    Call it an addendum to the original. It was followed by another on September 25, 2010. “The trials of your time now head to the crescendo of meaning, whereby to each will be shown the imperfection of the past and the need for purification of the future,” was the way it started, ending with the words, “Not until the initial event will the curtain be drawn that reveals the entirety of the plan, and even then, it will be parted only slowly, in the woes of purification.”

    On March 19, 2017, came another “addendum” that said, ““A new and great evil has now come and settled and will be there for the duration. It was a choice by man, including My people, who find deception in rancor and rancor where was ordained love. Not for years will an interior light return for those whose god is gold… Those who framed the future in accordance with their own time tables now find disbelief in prophecies, though they unfold around you.”

    And now another, recorded on March 22, 2020, has come for our review. We report it for the first time. As always, it is presented for your personal determination. Scripture tell us not to despise prophecy but to be prudent with it, taking what is good and leaving the rest (1 Thessalonians 5:21). Says this newest “addendum” (to the prophecies that began in 1990):

    “This is the time written about by the seers of today and the prophets of long ago. Before all, the landscape will change. No longer will men command the forces around them. In the sky will be written the dangers of the day, and on earth will be the fear of misery as the ultimate plague. Only when men treat God for Who He is will events so foretold ease and the earth settle in the purity of love and obedience, in safety and harmony. Without obedience, the whole of hell will be unleashed and the warring spirit of men unchained. In your heart, see God for Who He is and what good He brings — the joy that can be yours even in consternation.”

  17. The Real Corona

    March 26, 2020 by sd

    Want a corona (the word means “likeness to a crown”)?

    How about this rainbow, above the main basilica at Lourdes, with the crown representing Mary’s queenship — on the Feast of the Annunciation Wednesday?

    It may be closed, the shrine, but God’s Promise is still there. So is Jesus. So is Mary.

  18. Earth's activity:

    Indonesian volcano spews massive ash cloud

    Jakarta (AFP) - Indonesia's most active volcano Mount Merapi erupted Friday, shooting a column of ash some 5,000 metres (16,000 feet) into the air in its second major eruption this month.

    Ash and sand covered areas several kilometres (miles) away from the peak of the rumbling crater near Indonesia's cultural capital Yogyakarta.

    But authorities did not raise Merapi's alert level.

    "There has been no reports of damage from the eruption. We urge people to stay calm and not panic," national disaster mitigation agency spokesman Agus Wibowo said.

    Merapi erupted earlier this month, shooting a massive ash cloud some 6,000 metres in the air.

    That eruption coated Yogyakarta and neighbouring city Solo with grey dust and forced an airport closure.

    Mount Merapi's last major eruption in 2010 killed more than 300 people and forced the evacuation of 280,000 residents.

    That was Merapi's most powerful eruption since 1930, which killed around 1,300 people, while another explosion in 1994 took about 60 lives.

    The Southeast Asian nation -- an archipelago of more than 17,000 islands and islets -- has nearly 130 active volcanoes.

    It sits on the Pacific "Ring of Fire", a vast zone of geological instability where the collision of tectonic plates causes frequent quakes and major volcanic activity

    "Other things — other purifying things — are in store."

    Yes, they are and those things building on the horizon are what we need to be aware of while they distract us with this virus, what are they up to? Pray, Hope, and Don't worry, as God surely knows and has a plan :)

    Virgin Mary ‘Appears In The Sky’ Over Argentina

    March 27, 2020 by sd

    From The Daily Mail (caution: tabloid):

    [​IMG]Netizens in Argentina have thanked the Virgin Mary for protecting them after claiming this image of her appeared in the sky amid the Coronavirus outbreak.

    The ‘figure’ was taken at around 5pm on Wednesday in the city of San Carlos, in the northeastern Argentine province of Corrientes and was later spread on social media and messaging services. An unnamed resident whose daughter took the picture said ‘in the sky, a rainbow started to be seen, and then some drops started to create the figure (of the Virgin) in the sky surrounding the sun’.
