as the Twitter wise guys like to proclaim...”play stupid games, win stupid prizes” View attachment 14617
I’m happy to be the board Twitter guy. It doesn’t affect me anymore but if you’re not on it...don’t go in, as I tell my lovely bride..it’s the literal cesspool of humanity but it is an effective way to keep on the pulse of events as they occur:
Smart woman. Takes a thick armor of God to withstand the trash on there, thankfully my earlier days left enough scars to withstand the garbage one comes across on there
oh what could have been if the King of France was a true Catholic who consecrated France to the Sacred Heart...
Brilliant information. I have seen this video of Sister Lucia and Carlos Evaristo before about 2 to 3 years ago. But have not been able to find it again. Thank you.
The video I saw was the actual interview of Cardinal Vidal and Sr Lucia with Carlos Evaristo. The video had the actual words of Sr Lucia which were displayed in Portuguese, interpreted by many unbiased Portuguese interpreters. The video in your link (below) however is not the one I saw but it gives much needed information, for all the confused Catholics out there. So again thank you
A highly interesting video. For me, many questions remain, though, in particular around the Third Secret. The text that was published by the Vatican in the year 2000 (Bishop dressed in white appearing in a mirror as if he was the Holy Father, the real Holy Father gets shot on a hill by arrows) does not seem to stack with three pieces of evidence: a) the Secret of Akita given by Our Lady to Sr. Agnes Sasagawa on 13 October 1973 (if people don't repent, God will unleash a punishment more terrible than the deluge; fire will fall from the sky, whole nations will be annihilated, Bishops against Bishops and Cardinals against Cardinals - notably, Pope Benedict has stated that the secrets of Fatima and Akita are essentially the same; b) the discussion given by St. JP II in Fulda in 1981 with German Catholics as published in the magazine Stimme des Glaubens - the Pope said when asked about the Third Secret of Fatima that knowledge of this secret is not so much to be desired because the secret states that millions of people will perish from one moment to the next; c) the diary excerpt of Sr. Lucia published after her death by her Coimbra Carmel under the title "A Pathway under the gaze of Mary", which contains a page with a handwritten note by Sr. Lucia stating something along the following lines (I am writing all this off the cuff, please excuse inaccuracies): "The tip of the spear as a flame (a reference to St Michael with the flaming sword as described in the Fatima secrets) touches the axis of the earth. It shudders. Oceans and rivers leave their boundaries and from one hour to the next millions and millions of people perish worldwide." a) b) and c) viewed in conjunction do stack - they all discuss a physical chastisement and a) also discusses apostasy at the top of the Church. However, the official text published in 2000 with the Bishop dressed in white is quite different from a) b) and c), it does not quite stack. Whilst one could say the Bishop dressed in white who appears in a mirror as if he was the Holy Father (but is actually not) could be a reference to Pope Francis (the mirror image) vs. Pope Benedict (who gets shot by arrows). So in that sense, the Secret does allude to apostasy in the hierarchy. But the official text makes no reference to the physical chastisement, whereas a) b) and c) do. This does beg the question whether the Third Secret has been published in full in the year 2000. Pope em. Benedict knows, the text is published under Card. Ratzinger on the Vatican website. The one who should speak will fall silent (Our Lady of Good Success). If the official Third Secret is the full text, this begs the question why the Vatican waited from 1960 to 2000 to publish it. What is so secret about the official text? Why did Pope John XXIII almost faint when opening it (because it refers to an imposter Pope and it he thought it refers to him as he was perhaps a member of a secret sect)? Why did Fr. Malachi Martin, who knew the Third Secret because it was discussed in a car when he travelled with the Pope and Cardinal Bea, constantly allude to the great scary chastisement it contains? The official text contains nothing of that sort. Why was the official text pubished in 2000, some two years after Fr. Malachi Martin died? Most importantly, the official Third Secret just does not seem to stack with Akita, JP II's comments in Fulda and Sr. Lucia's diary excerpt as published by her fellow Sisters recently. I have no doubt the official Third Secret is genuine, the handwriting has been checked. But it may be incomplete. On the other hand, the Sr. Lucia interview in the video appears compelling. That said, the video is focused on the consecration of Russia more than the Third Secret. In any case, I have more questions than answers.
so according to this video, the crisis is averted with nuclear war from Russia because JPII fulfilled the consecration with the bishops according to Sr. Lucia.....so that's it? Everything is fine now? It doesn't seem to be so....It's worse than ever.
Its very hard to see a "period of peace" granted to mankind. Seems to me the consecration was weak and incomplete and thus some benefits and graces were given--no nuclear war thank God--but the conversions and true peace remain elusive. Just my 2 cents.
Sr. Lucia said that the Triumph is an ongoing process. She said in the 90's that if you thought of the timeline of Fatima events as a week, we were only in day 3 of the "Fatima week." She said the Triumph process, in a way, began the day Pope JPII got shot, because he was supposed to die that day, but Mary saved him. Can you imagine what the world would be like if JPII was killed in 1981? Yes, things are bad right now, but we don't have a very imminent huge threat of nuclear war hanging over our heads, the Soviet Union has fallen, the Berlin Wall fell... I mean, people were being slaughtered by the tens of millions in the Soviet Union. That's definitely worse than now. Also, don't forget that the consecration was supposed to take place BEFORE WWII. It was supposed to prevent that war from even happening. It wasn't done until way later in 1984, so the communist errors had already spread through the whole world by then. What we're seeing now is the spiritual fallout after decades of communist ideology infiltrated into every part of society. Correcting that isn't just going to happen overnight. In Medjugorje, Mary explained to Mirjana that what's happening now is something like Mary lifting the rugs of the world and sweeping out the filth. That's a process, and it gets messy and you now see a lot of the filth that was hiding till now. But it's a good thing. We can trust God and Our Blessed Mother... Where sin abounds, grace abounds, and they are working on transforming this mess of a world into something beautiful. How many souls are saved in the process, though, is partly up to us! So we've got to pray, offer sacrifices, fast, and keep sharing Christ with others!
