One might claim this is the foundational prophecy to rouse the hearts of faithful Catholics, that its length reflects the enormity of what is at stake. But it strikes me like a run-on Manifesto. I tend to be wordy myself, but this was a little over the top for me, an attempt to convince rather than simply lead. The question of obedience is of upmost importance, though no explicit response from his Excellency has ever been posted to gauge his approval, limitations, or rejection????? I also see mentioned on the thread a renewed hope for the Warning. That is premature, I believe, because the Warning is related directly to the Miracle that is to follow. Glenn should be asked when the next plausible date for the Miracle is. I will ask him.
I think we are up to our necks in messages at this stage. I read these recent messages and I am quite an accepting person so I'm not given to doubting and discerning. Our Lady has told us everything in OLOS, Fatima, Garabandal. I follow Medjugorge and I think I will leave it there in case I end up like a headless chicken. Everything is covered in three words 'pray pray pray'.
I see one of the Secrets of Medugorje may very well refer to the use of nuclear weapons. https://www.sunstar.com.ph/pampanga...e-here-on-earth-but-our-destination-is-heaven 'I am sharing the following interview of Fr. Livio Fangaza, head of Radio Maria and regarded as a voice of the Medjugorje apparitions. The interview was held in 2022 and involved Medjugorje visionary Marija. The interview was held after the Blessed Mother in Medjugorje said the following message on March 25, 2022: “Dear children! I hear your cry and prayers for peace. For years Satan has been fighting for war. Therefore God sent me among you to guide you on the path of holiness, because humanity is at the crossroads. I invite you: return to God and to God’s Commandments to feel good on Earth and to get out of this crisis you have entered because you do not listen to God who loves you and wants to save you and guide you towards new life. Thank you for answering my call.” Here’s the interview: Father Livio: “Marija, do you think there is a danger of a nuclear world war? Is this period real or is it just a way the devil uses to scare?” Marija: “I don’t want to go into detail about the Secrets, but Father Livio, did you feel me nervous? No! We are not agitated because we believe that the Madonna is with us, we believe that the Madonna, as she herself says, listens to our cry and our prayers. I believe that Our Lady is with us, God has allowed her, as she has said countless times, to be among us to help us. I believe that the forty years of the Madonna’s presence among us are precisely this. Humanity is at the crossroads, Our Lady is with us, she is on our side. Satan is strong, Our Lady said it in several messages. Satan is unleashed, you said so at the opening of this new millennium. “We know that evil exists and many times it uses us through our selfishness and our arrogance; many times we also do harm because we don’t have that sensitivity, that love of God that is within us. We live with the humanity of a rebellious man, without listening to God’s Commandments. Our Lady, precisely for this reason, with her sweetness and her constancy, guides us to tell us that God is with us and we must not be afraid.”'
There are so many false messages nowadays I have kinda given up on them. Who has the time for proper discernment; life is too short. So I have kinda battened on to a small group I think are true , especially those with Church Approval and they are enough. Church Approval is a big, big, big deal.
Glenn reminded me that the Miracle will occur in April in an even year. It is virtually certain that it won't occur this even year because the Warning has yet to occur.
Douay-Rheims Bible And it shall come to pass, in the last days, (saith the Lord,) I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.
This response of Marija is a very reassuring and comforting one. It reminds me of Our Lady of Guadalupe's response to Juan Diego: “Do not be frightened or grieve, or let your heart be dismayed; however great the illness may be that you speak of, am I not here, I who am your mother, and is not my help a refuge?” Here is Robert's take on the latest messages of this locution. I think Robert speaks a lot of sense.
I see Gisella Guardia has been rejected by the Church: https://catholicreview.org/bishop-near-rome-decrees-alleged-marian-apparitions-not-supernatural/ Also the weeping statue of Citta Vecchia Also rejected this less known one: https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/...ans-claim-to-have-received-marian-apparitions So many thousands of these false apparitions and phenomena at the moment, they are everywhere. As to the Mission of Divine Mercy ones in Texas they seem to be getting very famous, (or Infamous) I must take another look. But there is a big logical problem in Discernment here. We rely on the Church, of course to have the final say on such matters. But these locutions condemn Papa Frankie for being a usurper. So you see the logical difficulty here. The Church is hardly likely to approve these when they condemn Frankie. It just isn't going to happen. So where do you go from there? It's a cul de sac. But I must have another look at them out of curiosity.
I think the Texas Mission of Divine Mercy started broadcasting their videos just a couple of moths ago, I found these two short videos:
Well they seem to be a small well established and financed very small religious community in Texas very skilled in the use of the internet. This is their facebook were they put forth these messages (two so far): https://www.facebook.com/missionofdivinemercy/
Oh its hard listening to these things for discernment when there are so many false ones. It can be such a waste of time, but I'll give it a go.
There are so many red flags with this before I even start. Disobedience to their Bishop. Clearly the Church is going to condemn it; how could they not..and very quickly too. Usually these things centre on obscure very humble individuals who are persecuted . Here its a group of well known and resourced, very tech savvy individuals. Life Site News seems to be backing it because its an echo chamber of what they themselves have been saying.
No, I believe it's false. A pity; I would have liked it to be true. I think what happened is that they are confusing their own opinions and ideas with God's. A kind of group spiritual delusion. Poor people. prayers. I suppose they'll all be excommunicated, poor, poor people. A lot of what they said is quite true, but that makes it all the more dangerous.
