Well, I can't think of anything to replace obedience for as Jesus said: Matthew 23:2 Woes to Scribes and Pharisees 1Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to His disciples: 2 “The scribes and Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. 3So practice and observe everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach.… The thing is when they are excommunicated what will people like John Henry Weston do then? This is a bad schismatic path he is leading us down here. At the same thing I recognise the injustice and unfairness of all this. These poor, miguided people in Texas will be nuked for this whilst Cardinals, Bishops and Priests in Germany and throughout Europe say and perform total abominations a thousand times worse than this. But; sigh , that's just the way things are. What can we do but pray? The Pharisees and Sadducees are in the Drivers Seat. Sigh, sigh, sigh.
I thought he said the Warning would be in an even year. I know it has been said that the Miracle will occur within a year of the Warning….could this mean within 12 months after, not necessarily the same calendar year?
It is but it comes about as a consequence of all our sins. The State of the Church is the worst Chastisement imaginable. I was just listening to someone there now who said that they reckon that over the half the Bishops in Italy are homosexuals. I would guess that a similiar situation is in place in many other countries. I strongly suspect that most of the Cardinals Papa Frankie appointed were the same. But none of us will be sent to hell for what other people get up to. I find this a great comfort.
As I was walking around the Park this morning I saw something I took to be a Sign from God. A large black crow had a poor little white dove on the ground attacking it furiously and trying to kill it. But at the last moment the white dove escaped with the crow chasing after. But the dove was the better flier and got away. This is just so much like what is going on in the Church at the moment. But as in chapter 12 of the Book of the Apocalypse to which so many visionaries refer , we like Mary will flee with the child from the dragon to a safe refuge. Revelation 12 The Woman and the Dragon 12 A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain as she was about to give birth. 3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. 4 Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. 5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.”a]">[a] And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. 6 The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days. 7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Messiah. For the accuser of our brothers and sisters, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. 11 They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. 12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.” 13 When the dragon saw that he had been hurled to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. 14 The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle, so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the wilderness, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time, out of the serpent’s reach. 15 Then from his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river, to overtake the woman and sweep her away with the torrent. 16 But the earth helped the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river that the dragon had spewed out of his mouth. 17 Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring—those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.
It is getting very,very,very dark out there. Confusion and real evil everywhere. I would not mind so much if it were only in the Secular World, but at the very highest levels in Our Holy Mother the Church...and she is our Holy Mother . I believe the Blessed Virgin has said that in the End you only Refuge will be my Holy Rosary. Its starting to look pretty much like it. Bishop after Bishop, Cardinal after after Cardinal, Priest after priest and again and again and again from Papa Frankie himself I am hearing nothing but pure evil and heresy. Lets be honest about it, that's the way it is. I will not go into a rant about it but I trust these people just about as much as I would trust a demon whispering into my ear. So back to the rosary. I believe there is a famous prophecy about the rosary from Mary that in the end the rosary will save the World and the Church. I move and more believe. I think one time Mary said, 'At the end your only arms will be my rosary'. Looks like we're staring right at it.
Conchita had claimed that the Miracle would occur between March and May. I don't have the facts in front of me, but Glenn has provided further evidence that while falling within those 3 months, the Miracle can even be narrowed down to April.
From Akita on Oct. 13, 1973 - "As I told you, if men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests."
One of the many things I really, really, really love about Our Lady; she is always in there batting away no matter how bad things get. It reminds me of an Ancient Title for her, 'She who Stands in the Gap'.
Yes it is very dark but I find much to rejoice in as we anticipate this 4th Sunday if Lent- Laetare (Rejoice) Sunday. The Gospel for this Sunday is full of hope and joy: Jesus said to Nicodemus: “Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.” For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him will not be condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the verdict, that the light came into the world, but people preferred darkness to light, because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come toward the light, so that his works might not be exposed. But whoever lives the truth comes to the light, so that his works may be clearly seen as done in God. So yes it’s dark and many prefer that because when it dark you can’t even see your sins. But with the light, eventhough it’s painful, we start to see our sins. And as the Gospel begins God loves us so much he sent His Son while we were still in that sin not to condemn us but to love us as we are- broken and weak - to bring us salvation. Yes, it’s a good news to Rejoice to! Peace.
What a beautiful reading. Our Abbot one time , who had a Doctorate in Liturgy from Rome pointed out to us one time that we should observe how very well chosen the readings and words of prayers in the Liturgy are chosen. I have never forgotten this. It is a great joy to behold.
In these false messages from Texas, promoted , may I remind you by Life Site News, of something a great favourite of mine from the USA , Blessed Solanus Casey a Capuchin Brother from Detroit repeated over and over and over again like a mantra. 'Always stay loyal to Rome'. I can see now Solanus Casey was very , very prophetic in this. John Henry Western and Life Site News were very , very wrong in promoting this. It is schismatic and wrong. A terrible, terrible error. It reminds me of the downfall of Church Militant. Prayers for all involved. I like to think the best of them, but it is Schismatic.
We must stay with the bark of Peter at all costs even though the rudder has been abandoned and we are all getting seasick. This is part of our suffering and purification I believe.
Wasn’t a pronouncement from Rome also required? No it isn’t. In a specific official document of the Church, which has been known to the bishops since 1978, it is stated that the competent authority for the recognition of an apparition, revelation, or similar event is in the hands of the local bishop.
