Countdown to the Kingdom

A very sensible approach, Cindy. By the way, WELCOME! May Our Lady always watch over you and your loved ones!

 

Mario,

Thank you! It is a comfort to be a part of this community!

 

Cindy G,

Respectfully, disagree, about the "core of these prophecies." Some, on the Countdown site, I believe are false. And, at the core of false messages, is the telling of a lie about God. (That He plans some action. That He wants us to do something.) It is a sin, to put oneself forward, as God's chosen messenger, if one is not! A sin against the first and second commandments.

Therefore, we must look at "specifics" carefully. Because, the "specifics" may lead away, from what the Church teaches. They may lead away from prayer, to insist on "immediate action."

Even if, 99 percent of a series of messages has good content, if 1 percent is "off," it is a dangerous message. And, one that should not be "promoted."

 

Hi, Cindy.

Thank you for your response. I’m a fairly new member myself.

My underlying premise for writing what I did is that our enemy works tirelessly to deceive us. He gives us a subtle mixture of evil embedded inside what appears very, very good—even holy, at times.(Think: the serpentine words directed to Eve, for starters.)

That is why one of my unwritten rules of discernment is noting if, after the test of time, that prophesy is still seeming to speak to us—still pertinent. This means that the Church may as of yet not even ruled in it. And I NEVER subscribe to any that have been condemned.

So, for example, if a friend began telling me that daily she’s receiving messages from the Lord or Our Lady, I’d tread extremely carefully. As a matter of fact, It would be a true test of humility for that friend not to approach me at all with what she believes may be happening to her but, instead, go privately to her confessor and ask him how to proceed.

I hope I have made some sense here. God bless you!

 

Advocata,

Your response to Cindy G, is so kind, and on target! So much better than I could say.

 

Christy,

I also respectfully accept your opinion. In this forum, we of all people must maintain civility - it is of the utmost importance that we do so.

I agree that some prophecy steers us away from the truth, and I do not claim that I believe that all prophecy at Countdown to the Kingdom must be believed, an “all or nothing” approach to each seer or message. That was not my intent.

What I am putting forth is that messages ultimately urging conversion, repentance, love of God, and sanctifying grace, while the specific requested actions being put forth may or may not be of God, and that is left to individual discernment, these ultimate messages serve as a confirmation for me of what we are generally called to be doing in all times. To me, this is of supreme importance, a focal point to maintain, and a source of great comfort.

In Christ,

 

Don't worry.....your trust and discernment is going in the right direction. It is to our benefit that warnings are given to us for such times as these.....as well as hints that heaven is always in control while sharing the insights from that dimension to give us guidance and hope and courage as we approach the New Era. God bless.

 

Of course we know about the particular descriptions expected with the 3DD. But watching the destruction and crime perpetrated by those who think the northern hemisphere has to be whiteless just like the southern hemisphere might go all the way to hell on earth, worse than the 3DD me thinks.

 

Thank you, Christy1983. I have found true zeal for God and His Truth in many of your posts and I really get a lot out of reading them. Please keep that spirit! I have a feeling many are benefiting and/or will benefit from them in time. God bless you!

 

Yes, the slow but steady disintegration of society is an unnerving reality. That is why we must use the internet in such a way as to give JoeJerk no leverage for discouragement in our lives.

Christ the King rules! He is Almighty and is Lord of history! Praised be His Holy Name!

 

We can consider Edson Glauber a false prophet. Somen recent events and comments indicates that Pedro Regis is in the same category. Only a blind man does not see that Luz de Maria Is the best example of false prophet . And Father Michel I have doubts but can not judge yet. See the testimony he gave about God the Father dictating things for him to type on the computer, this fact was very strange

Fr. Michel then heard the voice say to him, “Stand,” so he did. “Go to the computer,” so he walked over and sat down at his desk. “Listen and write.” Then God the Father proceeded to dictate the entire constitution for a new religious order. Typing at sixty-three words per minute, he couldn’t keep up. “I cannot follow you!” he complained. “You’re going too fast!” Fr. Michel heard the Father chuckle, and He slowed down for him. God told Fr. Michel that the order would be called Fraternité Apostolique Saint Benoît-Joseph Labre (The Apostolic Fraternity of St. Joseph Benedict Labre).

 

Thank you Mario. Wise words taken on board. God bless.

 

Good advice.

 

Wonderful explanation of the prudence required these days.

 

You're most welcome, AED. It came from my heart. And I won’t claim any more prudence than that with which my Guardian Dear supplies me! (I’m betting St. Pio is his commander, too, because there’s one, great discerner if there ever was one!)

 

Regarding Father Michel, Prince of Peace, I too have noted that in his testimony on Youtube, he does seem to be very at ease with his conversations with God, the Father, with Our Lord Jesus, Our Lady, and Saint Joseph. But then again he has stated that he had been having these conversations with Them since he was a small child.

I hope this does not offend anyone, but Father Michel's relaxed demeanor reminds me of Giovanni Guareschi's, fictional priest, Don Camillo.

Have you ever read Giovanni Guarechi's The Little World of Don Camillo? What you quoted above reads just like one of the many conversations that Don Camillo had with Our Lord, Jesus, very personal. A wonderful book.

 

I have never read that but wonder if, as with Padre Pio, did Dom Camillo tell others of these experiences during his lifetime? If he did, there would be somewhat of a record of sorts of first-hand, primary witness testimony to this following him throughout his life o lend support.

All of what we know from Fr. Michel is what he has told us himself, correct or not? I haven’t heard of anyone from his past attesting to the fact that Father has had the types of communications he claims to have had with God the Father, Our Lord, Our Lady, etc. throughout his life. So, unless someone fills me in on this SPECIFIC thing (no tangents, please!), then I am forced to rely solely on his word.

 

I loved those stories. Also Tevje in Fiddler on the Roof.

 

wow, can I get the source of this story, weblink please. Thanks!

"You're going too fast" comment is looking more like his visions are not true at all...
