The Marian Messages

Final events as predicted by the spirits to faithful Roman Catholics

Vance Ferrell

PART THREE

END OF TIME

WHEN THE SPECIAL WARNING WILL BE GIVEN

Immediately preceding the devastating destruction comes the warning (or warnings); to be followed by the miracle.

According to the visionaries of Medjugorje, the apparitions at that town will be Mary's last before the new age begins.

They tell us that, very soon, three warnings are supposed to be given to the world. Each will be a special event which will occur on the earth.

Mirjana, of the Medjugorie visionaries, is supposed to be shown two of them three days beforehand. At that time, she is to immediately to tell them to a local priest, who will relay the news to Rome so it can be told to the world. According to Mary, that advance confirmation will cause many to return obediently to the faith. All three warnings will occur very close to one another. During that interval will be nearly the last opportunity for salvation.

After the first warning has been given, a visible sign of some kind will appear on the site of the apparitions in Medjugorje (Croatia) for all the world to see. It will also appear in the little village of Garabandal (Spain).

After the visible sign appears, there will be little opportunity for conversation to the Roman faith.

In apparitions at Garabandal, Mary predicted one warning, to be followed by two other major events. They explained that three great events would occur: the warning, the miracle, and the punishment. It was said that the miracle would come within a year of the warning.

One visionary at Garabandal (Mari-Loli) is said to know the date of the warning, and another (Conchita) is said to know the date of the miracle. This provides us with more secrets, to keep the faithful in suspense--while precious probationary time passes away.

Both the warning and the miracle are said to be worldwide in their influence, and will affect everyone living.

When the miracle occurs, it is said that millions will journey to see it, and will be converted.

Conversion, of course, means they will begin saying the rosary, wearing the scapular, confessing to the priest, buying medals of the Virgin, and obeying the pope. Never is there a hint that priests or people should stop smoking cigarettes, drinking liquor, or enjoying worldly entertainments and fashions.

 All that is needed is repentance, trust in Mary, more rosaries, and holding crucifixes.

People will sense an impression.

There will come a sign, when everyone in the world will experience an inner awareness, and will know that this is of God, and see themselves as they really are. It is up to those who believe to pray, so that our prayers will be used, to allow everyone to respond to that Sign, and be saved for God. Our Lady is relying on those of us who do believe to pray that others who are in darkness will receive the grace to come back. Christina Gallagher, Cortnadreha (Ireland), letter, no date. 317:3

The warning should cause the faithful to flee to Mary, for no one is greater or more loving.

Those in My grace have nothing to fear when the warning comes. When will you learn that there is nothing greater than My love? Don't you feel the warmth of My love? Is there anyone greater than I? Why are you looking anywhere else? Come into My Arms! Mary, through anonymous visionary in northeastern U.S., c. 1991-1992.

Mary can forgive sinners and help them.

This will be the one time, as never before in the history of mankind, when man will be given the same realization that is given at the hour of his death. This will be My greatest act of mercy! When man is confronted with the sins of his life, the moment belongs to him. I will repair all, but he must ask. I will forgive all, but he must repent. I will take everyone back to My Heart, but they must do the returning. Christ child, through northeastern U.S. anonymous visionary, c. 1991-1992. 318:4  

WHAT THIS WARNING WILL BE

THE SECOND CRUCIFIXION OF CHRIST

It will not be a pointing out of sin, and a call to forsake it. Instead, it will be a gigantic passion play in the skies.

Read Hebrews 9:25-28, and Patriarchs and Prophets, 411, 417-418. Leave it to the spirits to do things contrary to Scripture.

There will be a long moment of silence.

The warning, Our Lady calls the moment of silence. And in the moment of silence our internal selves will be revealed. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

Christ will hang there, while they think.

This is about the warning. Let Me tell you about the warning. It will happen at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. You know the date.

The sky will become very, very dark. The earth will shake. The whole world will be in turmoil. The greatest destruction will be in mans heart. People will think the world is coming to an end. The fear will be in proportion to their guilt.

I will give them the time they need. I will hang there patiently. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit will begin at the very moment they see Me. This will be mans moment. He can clear all his sins away [in repentance] or he can bring them to his ruin. Christ child, through anonymous U.S. visionary, c. 1991-1992.

This will be the sign of the cross. [At a later time in final events, there may be another sign of the cross in the skies, when only a cross will appear.]

Those who follow the cross willingly now, will not fear the last judgment. When the Lord comes to judge, the Sign of the Cross will be in the heavens. Saint Louis de Montfort, (1673-1716), no date.

I give unto ye your sign. Wait on this, for it [a cross] shall illuminate the skies. Be at peace, for thou art My chosen and beloved. Mary, visions given three adults at Lubbock (Texas), July 4, 1988.

Christ will be crucified a second time.

The Divine Majesty is standing alone in anticipation of the glorification of My Passion. By that, I mean that very soon the whole human race will witness My Crucifixion once again. At that time, everyone will understand the great offense My Father suffered. Christ child, to anonymous U.S. visionary, c. 1991-1992.

My Arms will be outstretched. My Mercy will be overflowing. Its going to be the end. Christ child, to anonymous U.S. visionary, c. 1991-1992.

This portrayal, without any appeals to forsake specific sins, will be enough.

The warning will happen. Don't have any misgivings. When you least expect it, I have already said it, you will see the Cross in the sky. What I have promised, I will carry out. Then all of you will say, Truly, this is the Son of God. Christ child, to anonymous U.S. visionary, c. 1991-1992.

Immense lights will shine from the wounds in His hands and feet.

Before I come as the just judge, I am coming first as the King of Mercy. Before the day of justice arrives, there will be given to people a sign in the heavens of this sort: All light in the heavens will be extinguished, and there will be great darkness over the whole earth. Then the sign of the cross will be seen in the sky, and from the openings where the hands and the feet of the Saviour were nailed will come forth great lights which will light up the earth for a period of time. This will take place shortly before the last day. Christ child, to Sister Faustina Kowalska (1905-1938), Cracow (Poland), no date. 320:1

The appearance of the cross in the skies will be a sign that Jesus is very soon to return. It is the sign of the Son of man.

I tell you, this young generation will not pass before all this happens. But do not be afraid, for behold in the heavens the Sign of the Son of Man which Madaleine saw shining from the East to the West. You, Heads of Churches, in truth I tell you, it is by this Cross set up over the world, that nations shall be saved. My Father has sent Me to save, and the moment has come when I must pour My Mercy into human hearts. Mary, through Madaleine, Normandy (France), March 1, 1974.

The Glorious Cross, or the Sign of the Son of man, is the announcement of the approaching return in glory of the risen Jesus. Mary, through Madaleine, Normandy (France), May 3, 1974.  

THE SPECIAL MIRACLE WILL OCCUR

In 1961, in Garabandal, Spain, four children were given Marian visions. It was there disclosed that a miracle would be given within a year after the warning occurred.

The exact date of the miracle is said to be known by one of the four children (Conchita Gonzalez, who now lives in New York). Mary is said to have instructed her not to tell it to anyone until Mary says to, which is to be eight days before it occurs. That is supposed to give the world enough time to board ships, planes, etc., and journey to Garabandal, Spain, in time to personally witness the miracle, so they can be saved. The purpose is that the excitement of seeing it may convert them. If the excitement of a crucifixion in the skies does not convert them, this follow-up miracle is supposed to accomplish it.

Garabandal is set on a hillside, with an immense area within viewing distance of it. The apparitions occurred in a grove of nine pine trees, located on the top of a rocky hill where they can easily be seen for a great distance.

There is something remarkable shallow about everything the spirits say and do. Whether in the world or in the religions, it is always tinsel and fluff; never the solid and practical depths of Christian experience one finds in the Bible, the Spirit of Prophecy, and the lives of the true saints.  

The nature of the miracle is not yet revealed. It is another secret.

The miracle will be the miracle of the presence of God. How this will happen, I cant tell you. Our Lady refers to it as sign in the presence of God. This will be experienced within the Church as is Our Lady's entire plan. It is to spark us and bring us to Her Son in the Church, through the sacraments, through receiving the presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. Theresa Lopez, Denver(Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

The following statement gives very specific information: (1) These final events will immediately follow the proclamation by the pope of Mary as co-redemptrix [co-Redeemer] with Christ. (2) Human probation will end as soon as the miracle is given. (But, later in the same apparition, we are told that more probationary time will be given later. The spirits always want you to think there will be another chance later on.) (3) The chastisements will follow; more on them later.

The miracle will have two purposes: to reveal the presence of God and the renewal of the Church. Our Lady has said these secrets will come about by proclamation of her last title. Once the miracle occurs the time of grace will end. It has an ending date. Chastisements will follow. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

Note: In the visions given to the children at Garabandal, Spain, it was revealed that the miracle will take place at 8:30 on a Thursday evening, and, on the day of the miracle, the Church will be celebrating the feast of a young martyr of the Eucharist. It was also revealed that those who most often pray the rosary and receive the wafer at the Eucharist will be among those protected in these final climatic experiences. Mary has said that the sign will be visible, remain forever, be able to be photographed, televised, but not touchable, and not scientifically explainable. There is speculation that it will be a pillar of cloud and fire.

Conchita, one of the visionaries at Garabandal, said that Russia would be converted as a result of the miracle, and that the pope would be able to see it from wherever he might be at the time. Information in letter by Cochita Gonzalez, Garabandal (Spain), dated June 2, 1965.

In addition to the great forthcoming miracle, Mary has promised to leave another visible sign at the site of the apparitions in Medjugorje.

Our Lady has promised to leave a visible sign for all humanity at the site of the apparitions of Medjugorje. Priest Tomislav Vlasic, Medjugorje (Croatia), letter to John Paul II, December 2, 1983.

It is now believed that John Paul II journeyed to Denver, Colorado, in the hope that an apparition, seen by millions, would appear in the Rocky Mountains during that climb. Apparently, word was given him that this would occur. But it did not happen.

That mountain area near Denver has been earmarked as one of several sites for the viewing of the same or a similar great miracle when it eventually is seen at Garabandal and Medjugorje.

Will Denver get a permanent sign and is that the same one as in Medjugorje? I don't know if it has to do with any apparitions anywhere else. Our Lady has only told me about the significance of her apparitions in Denver. I cannot say it is a link with anything going on anywhere else. But this permanent sign is a sign of conversion, and its a sign of Our Lady. It is to stir you to conversion and cause the thrust into the Church. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

Mary has promised to place a miraculous sign at every place she has ever appeared in the past, which are a lot of places.

Children, I give you the blessing of the all-powerful God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Come always to visit Me. Never abandon Me, little ones, because I love you so much. At the end of all the apparitions in the world, I will leave a great sign in this place and in all those where I have been. Mary, through Patricia of Cuenca (Ecuador), March 3, 1990. 

THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL BE POURED OUT

Having seen the spectacular sight in the skies, people will repent, and that will be sufficient for the Holy Spirit to be poured out upon them. The pattern is see, be impressed, receive the Holy Spirit.

The Spirit is to be poured out immediately after the warning, as soon as the miracle is seen in the skies.

I will give them the time they need. I will hang there patiently. The outpouring of the Holy Spirit will begin at the very moment they see Me. This will be mans moment. Christ child, through anonymous U.S. visionary, c. 1991-1992.

It will be as great as the first Pentecost.

The outpouring of My Spirit, after the warning occurs, will be as great as it was on the first Pentecost . . Tell the people to recite the rosary. That is so important. The people will have to help Me. They will have to do another fast. Christ child, through anonymous Eastern U.S. visionary, 1991-1992.  

MANY CONVERSIONS WILL OCCUR

The spirits always promise us extension of probationary time. In the apparitions, more probationary time keeps being added.

Probation ends when the miracle occurs.

Once the miracle occurs the time of grace will end. It has an ending date. Chastisements will follow. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

During the chastisement, which follows the miracle, there will be more opportunity to be saved.

Our Lady has said, those who live a virtuous life have no fear of chastisements. Even after all these chastisements come to pass, even then, there will be one hour of grace remaining. And in that hour of grace, even the worst of the worst that have undergone the chastisements, will be given the last opportunity for conversion. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

This statement, indicates universal salvation.

At the hour when all will seem lost, all will be saved through the merciful love of the Father, which will be made visible through the greatest manifestation of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), Milan (Italy), December 8, 1980.

When the sign occurs in the heavens, there will be instantaneous mass conversions.

The wickedness of men would destroy My plan if possible but My power given to Me by God Himself is infinitely greater than all the wickedness in the world . . Remember this always. It will give you great heart to know and reflect upon this. Satan and his legions cannot prevent My Triumphas hard as they may try, because God Himself has preordained that this should occur in this time. You are fortunate to be living in this time, this era of mercy and love. Not all have been given so great a chance to repent from so much evil. You will know by the sign in the heavens, which is I Myself, that the time is at hand for the instantaneous conversion of the multitude. This will be accomplished through a tremendous outpouring of grace upon the earth given at the hands of God to Me for this purpose. this will be the Triumph of My Immaculate Heart of which I spoke at Fatima [Portugal, 1917].Mary, through Mariamante (midwest U.S.), February 22, 1987. [This quote indicated that a sign in the skies would be Mary herself.]

The miracle will bring about the conversion of Russia.

The miracle is not only for the conversion of Russia, but for the conversion of the whole world. Thus all will love our hearts [the hearts of Jesus and Mary].Christ child, to Conchita Gonzalez, Garabandal (Spain), 1961.

Russia would be converted as a result of the miracle. Information in letter by Cochita Gonzalez, Garabandal (Spain), dated June 2, 1965. 

THE SEALING

All those who are converted by having kept up their rosaries, or by seeing the miracles, will be sealed. Notice that it is the seal of Mary, not of God, and it is also the sign of the cross.

The seal of Mary's love.

You are thus signed with the seal of My love, which distinguishes you from those who have allowed themselves to be seduced by the Beast and bear his imprinted blasphemous number. The Dragon and the Beast can do nothing against those who have been signed with My seal. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), November 12, 1981.

The sign of the cross.

All My children will receive and carry the sign of the cross on their foreheads. This sign only my chosen ones will see. These chosen ones will be instructed by my angels how to conduct themselves. Mary, through Matous Losuta, Tursovka (Czechoslovakia), 1958.

The image of Mary.

The Star of the Abyss [Satan] will persecute all those who are signed with my seal, but nothing will be able to harm the souls upon whom I myself have impressed my image. By the blood which many of them will have to shed, divine justice will be appeased and the time of my victory will be hastened. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), November 12, 1981. 330:2

Mary's heavenly seal imprinted on foreheads and hands.

If my Adversary is signing, with his mark, all his followers, the time has come when I also, your heavenly leader, am signing, with my heavenly seal, all those who have consecrated themselves to my Immaculate Heart and have formed  part of my army. I am imprinting my seal on your foreheads with the most holy sign of the Cross of my Son Jesus . . Against those signed on the forehead with the blasphemous mark, I am opposing my children signed with the Cross of Jesus Christ . . For this, I am imprinting upon your hands my seal which is the sign of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit . . Allow yourselves all to be signed on the forehead and on the hand of my motherly seal. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), September 8, 1989. 330:4-0

Mary's angels place her seal.

The Angels of Light of My Immaculate Heart are now actually gathering from everywhere the elect, called to form part of my victorious cohort. They are signing you with my seal. They are reclothing you with sturdy armor for the battle. They are covering you again with my shield. They are giving you the crucifix and the rosary as the weapons to be used for the great victory. The time for the decisive struggle has come. For this, the angels of the Lord are intervening in an extraordinary way and placing themselves, each day, at the side of each one of you to guide you, to protect and to comfort you. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), September 29, 1987. 330:3

Fed by spirits during the chastisement.

My faithful will be without any kind of fear during the most difficult hours. They will be protected by the good spirits and will be fed by heaven from where they will receive further instructions. Mary, through Matous Losuta, Tursovka (Czechoslovakia), 1958. 

THE CHASTISEMENTS

Also called the tribulation, this is the final great punishment of the living. For the church, it is a punishment for having accepted non-Catholic error and having drifted away from the practices of the Dark Ages. For the world, it is a punishment meted out to all who have not repented at the sight of Christ's crucifixion in the skies.

We earlier mentioned that increasing natural disasters, and even a great war, had been predicted by Mary. At some point, those terrible experiences will meld into the final great chastisement. These will be disasters on an immense scale, which are sent as punishment for mans sins in not returning to Mary. There are speculations by the faithful that the holocaust may be caused by a passing comet.

Words used to describe it include earthquakes, famines, fire from heaven, hurricanes, social and financial upheavals, three days of darkness, and at least two-thirds of mankind being slain.

It should be noted that the graven images of Mary have occasionally wept tears. But in recent years some of the statues are said to have wept blood. In addition, visionaries are said to occasionally see her weeping blood. Mary tells the visionaries that this is because she is thinking of the terrible chastisement, soon to begin.

The tears of blood which have been flowing from my eyes foretell that the Great Chastisement will befall the whole world. Mary, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), no date. 

SIGNS AT THE BEGINNING OF THE CHASTISEMENT

As we have noted, for the great miracle, a large cross is supposed to appear in the skies, with Christ hanging upon it for a time; to be seen by a silent world.

Then the sealing will occur, and this will be crosses marked on the foreheads and hands of the faithful.

This is immediately followed by more crosses! Crosses will appear in the skies, as the great chastisement begins.

Quite consistently, throughout this entire end-time scenario, we find evidences which appeal to the senses, rather than principles of conduct based on Scripture.

A great red cross.

Before the great tribulation, there is going to be a sign. We will see in the sky one great red cross on a day of blue sky without clouds. The color red signifies the blood of Jesus Who redeemed us and the blood of the martyrs selected by God in the days of atheists, etc., as well as all the prepared ones who will be guided by God in the way of Christ. They will receive grace to interpret the significance of the cross. Mary, through Brother David Lopez El Ranchilo (Texas), September 11, 1987. 349:1

Ten claps of thunder.

A strong warm wind will come from the south. It will seize upon the whole globe and cause dreadful storms. After this, about ten claps of thunder at once will strike the earth with such force that it will shudder throughout. This is a sign that the great tribulation and the black darkness are beginning. Mary, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), c. 1975. 354:2a 

EVENTS DURING THE CHASTISEMENT

One of the two children at LaSalette, France, was given the following summary by Mary of final events. It was the first of the modern predictions by Mary of last-day events, and was given nine months after Satan discovered that God had sent another true prophet to mankind.

With a true prophet again active, and Rome sliding into lax agnosticism, efforts began to be made to arouse the people to return to the faith and practices of the Dark Ages.

Apostasy and the antichrist looming on the horizon.

Lucifer and a large number of demons will . . put an end to the [Catholic] faith little by little, evil books will be abundant on earth, churches will be built to serve these spirits, Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist, the Church will be in eclipse, the world will be in dismay, wars, earthquakes, fire from Heaven, plagues, infectious diseases, famine and other calamities will strike the earth, the Antichrist will be born who will perform wonders, the seasons will be altered, the earth will produce nothing but bad fruit, the stars will lose their regular motion, the moon will reflect a faint reddish glow, water and fire will give the earth convulsions, voices will be heard in the air. Mary, through Melanie Cavat, LaSalette (France), September 19, 1846.

The purpose is to save, not the world, but Catholics.

Its a very critical time for the Church . . This is the hour of the Father. He's coming to His people to save the Church, for the evil one, himself, is walking the earth to devour Gods people. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, May 23, 1982.

Darkness and lightning bolts.

Be not afraid. My peace I freely give you. Tell all humanity to prepare themselves; the time has come for the cleansing of all humanity. A great darkness will come upon the world. The heavens will shake . . The lightning bolts will flash like nothing the world has ever seen. My hand will come over the world more swiftly than the wind. Mary, through Christina Gallagher, January 30, 1991.

A great chastisement is coming.

In order that the world might know His anger, the heavenly Father is preparing to inflict a great chastisement on all mankind. Mary, through Sister Agnes Sasagawa, Akita (Japan), August 3, 1973.

It is about to begin.

You are living the painful times of the chastisement. You are living the dark hour of the victory of my Adversary, who is the Prince of the Night. You are living the most difficult moments of the purification. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), December 8, 1987. 341:5

A world war is approaching.

Children, there is so much sorrow in my heart, for many natural catastrophes and others created by man are coming. Hard times are already taking place, a short decade filled with suffering. Children the third world war is near . . Children the time is very short, very short. Conversion must be faithful  . . In these last days in which I will be present, because my leave is near, you must fill your hearts with the light of my Son, so that a desolation of faith will not exist. Mary, through Patricia Talbott, Cuenca (Ecuador), January 6, 1990. 340:2.

Disasters of all kinds.

Understand this well: In the days which preceded the deluge, people didn't expect anything until the arrival of the flood which carried them off. But today you have been warned, you are living in the times of which I said: On this earth there will be disasters of all kinds: Iniquity is the cause of misery and famine, nations will be in anguish, there will be portents and phenomena in Heaven and on the earth. So, be ready because great tribulation is near, such as has never been seen since the beginning of the world until today, and which will never be again. Mary, through Madaleine, Normandy (France), July 4, 1975. 333:1

San Francisco will be swallowed up.

There will be a great famine all over the world. Nothing will grow. The whole world will be hungry. All will be lacking in food. The atmosphere will be changing and cause great disaster upon the earth. A  terrible earthquake.

At this point Eileen asked, Is it San Francisco? The reply was given:

It will be opened up and swallowed. You can give warnings to man so they can pray and change things around . . It will be written that God has spoken to His people through one of His little ones, one whom He loved and trusted to reveal His word. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, February 28, 1982. [Short afterward, in this same conversation, Eileen was told that New York City would also be destroyed.]

Fire will fall from heaven.

A chastisement worse than the Flood is about to come upon this poor and perverted humanity. Fire will descend from Heaven and this will be the sign . . The beast will enter into the holy temple of God. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), September 15, 1987.

It will last 72 hours [3 days and 3 nights].

Clouds with lightning rays of fire and a tempest of fire will pass over the whole world and the punishment will be the most terrible ever known in the history of mankind. It will last seventy hours. The wicked will be crushed and eliminated. Many will be lost because they will have stubbornly remained in their sins. Then they will feel the force of light over darkness. The hours of darkness are near. Mary, through Sister Elena Aiello, Calabria (Italy), no date. 351:1 

ANTICHRIST WILL APPEAR

A description of the Catholic antichrist was given in an earlier section of this book. The description recalls to mind Saddam Hussein. The spirits knew that, in the early 1980s, he was laying plans for a massive war, including long-range rockets and nuclear warheads.

The antichrist will be a Moslem, and will start the third world war.

There will be a World War III and it will be started by a man who wears the turban of the faith, a Moslem. He will be an antichrist put on earth by Lucifer. Yet there is a more powerful one to rise in Syria, when this one has accomplished his work. He will cause destruction and pain. He will cause heartbreak and tears, and a great persecution of  Christians. The earth will tremble with earthquakes. He will be a great ruler of Satan.

After . . fifteen years [of battle] there will be a great peace, a great peace. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, February 20, 1982. 343:2b

He will fire rockets at America, and will have nuclear warheads.

There will be nothing to eat; a great shortage of oil. No heat. The war is not going to be fought till later, because we are going to be fighting about oil. Then the Antichrist is going to arise from the Mohammedan race, a Moslem. He is going to have a turban. He is young. The famine comes first, sometime between 1990 and 1999. Then he is going to start a great war.

My Father said he is already planning it. They are building up arms . . He will be connected with the Russians, the communists. He'll be an antichrist . . He will be very intelligent and well equipped for nuclear war . . He is going to be worse than Hitler. This Moslem is going to fire rockets at us. Our radar will pick them up, and our rockets will intercept them. But some are going to get through ad hit New York City. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, February 28, 1982.

The Antichrist, predicted in Scripture, is about to arise. He will do terrible sacrilege by abolishing the Holy Mass for 1290 days.

The Holy Mass is the daily sacrifice, the pure oblation which is offered to the Lord everywhere, from the rising of the sun to its going down. The sacrifice of the Mass renews that which was accomplished by Jesus on Calvary. By accepting the protestant doctrine, people will hold that the Mass is not a sacrifice but only a sacred meal, that is to say, a remembrance of that which Jesus did at His Last Supper. And thus, the celebration of Holy Mass will be suppressed. In this abolition of the daily sacrifice consists the horrible sacrilege accomplished by the Antichrist, which will last about three-and-a-half years, namely, 1,290 days. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), December 31, 1992. 251:2  

THE ANTICHRIST WILL DRIVE THE POPE FROM ROME

The historist view is that the antichrist is spiritual leader of Rome who, for long centuries, led out in the concerted drive to destroy Bible-believing Christians. The Marian (and papal) view is that he will be someone in the last days who hates the pope.

Antichrist will overthrow the pope.

Toward the end of the world, Antichrist will overthrow the pope and usurp his see. Joachim (d. 1202).

The pope will leave Rome.

Religion shall be persecuted, and priest massacred. Churches shall be closed, but only for a short time. The Holy Father shall be obliged to leave Rome. Anna-maria Tiagi (19th century). 255:v

Rome will become the seat of antichrist.

Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of Antichrist. The Church will be in eclipse, the world will be in dismay. Mary, through Melanie Calvat and Maximin Guiraud, La Salette (France), 1846.

Freemasonry will take control of the church.

See the Appendix: Comments on Revelation, at the back of this book. 

WORLD WAR III WILL OCCUR

A great world war will begin.

Little children, know that all you do benefits the world. Your prayers, penances, and fasts are helping to deter the determination of the third World War. Everything is as I have said before. It is in your hands. It depends on you whether the chastisement be as strong as the sorrow that my Son feels or that it [the chastisement] be appeased with prayer . . Great catastrophes are coming upon humanity; the third World War threatens the world. Catastrophes by man are coming. Mary, through Patricia Talbott, Cuenca (Ecuador), January 6, 1990. 341:1

It will begin with false peace treaties.

The war is near. It will be started with false peace treaties, treaties, treaties in which we should not place our trust. Many countries would be involved, among them China, Rumania, Russia, and the United States. Initially Poland will be involved also, but when the Holy Father leaves Rome, going first to France and then to Poland, Poland would then be protected. Mary, through Patricia Talbott, Cuenca (Ecuador), January 6, 1990. 341:1

Physical disasters will occur during the war.

The Third World War threatens the world . . earthquakes will come, hurricanes, the sky will shower fire, all this will come from the Father, the Son, and the Spirit of God. Mary, through Patricia (:Pachi) Talbott, Cuenca (Ecuador), January 1, 1989.

San Francisco will be destroyed by an earthquake during this war.

The earthquakes are horrible. I saw big, big buildings falling down. San Francisco is going to be swallowed up. The earthquake will start on the floor of the ocean. My Father said the floods are going to be terrible There will be no holding them back They'll take down buildings and streets and everything. The war will be in progress, which will make it twice as bad. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, February 28, 1982. 344:4

America will experience defeat.

The great trial has arrived for your country [U.S.] . . The moment of divine justice and of great mercy has no arrived. You will know the hour of suffering and defeat. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), November 15, 1990.

Two-thirds of earths inhabitants will die.

In all the land, two-thirds of them will be die. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), November 22, 1992.

The earth will be out of orbit for 72 hours.

The earth would go out of its orbit for three days. At that time the Second Coming of Jesus will be near. The devil will take over the world. Mary, through Patricia Talbott, Cuenca (Ecuador), October 1988. 341:2a 

THE TIMING OF THE ANTICHRIST AND THE WAR

As usual, time-setters paint themselves into a corner. The time for this prediction to begin is nearly past. We should already be in the great famine.

Starvation and famine immediately before.

Immediately preceding Antichrist there will be starvation and earthquakes. Saint Hildegard (d. 1179).

When World War III will begin was answered in a message to Eileen George:

There will be a World War III and it will be started by . . an antichrist put on earth by Lucifer. Yet there is a more powerful one to rise in Syria, when this one has accomplished his work. He will cause destruction and pain. He will cause heartbreak and tears, and a great persecution of Christians. The earth will tremble with earthquakes. He will be a great ruler of Satan. After many years of battle

Eileen then asked: How many years? The reply was:

Fifteen. After fifteen years there will be a great peace, a great peace. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, February 20, 1982. 343:2b

Eileen George asked Mary how long World War III would be. The reply also told what would follow it:

Fifteen. After fifteen years there will be a great peace, a great peace. The land of terror will fall at the knees of Mary. Her blue mantle will overshadow them, and the red will flow into the sea, covered by the mantle of blue, they will join the free world in peace and harmony. And then there will be a long, long peace, longer than has ever fallen on the earth. Christ child, through Eileen George, Massachusetts, February 20, 1982. 343:2b 

THE THREE DAYS OF DARKNESS

According to the Marian apparitions, it is at this time that the wicked are all slain.

Demons will invade the earth, and you must keep your doors closed so they cannot enter. (Wouldn't it be nice if we could keep the devils out simply by shutting doors?)

A strong warm wind will come from the south. It will size upon the whole globe and cause dreadful storms. After this, about ten claps of thunder at once will strike the earth with such force that it will shudder throughout. This is a sight that the great tribulation and the black darkness are beginning. These will last three days and three nights. On this account people should go into their houses, close them up well, darken the windows, bless themselves and the house with holy water, and light blessed candles. Outside such dreadful things will be happening, that those who venture to look will die. All the devils will be let loose on earth, so that they can destroy their prey themselves.

The demons will howl upon the earth and call many, in order to destroy them. What? They will imitate the voices of relations and acquaintances, who have not reached a safer place. Once the horror commences, do not open your door to anyone at all! Mary, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), no date. 354:2-3

Only candles blessed by the priest will burn.

In many places, several people will gather together in fear. From the same group, some will perish, others remain alive for this Day and moment, and for that darkness, many will have prepared the blessed candles, but they will not burn . . Others will even be unable to light them for fear. But, for those who believe, although they have but a stub of the blessed candle, it will burn for these three days and nights without going out. Some people will fall into a deep sleep granted by Me, so as not to see what is happening on the earth. Mary, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), c. 1976. 354:4

Keep the doors shut!

During these three days of darkness, there is not going to be one demon left in hell. All are going to be on earth. Those three days are going to be so dark that we will not be able to see out own hands before our faces.

In those days, the ones who are not in the state of grace are going to die of fright because of the horrible demons that they will see. Close all the doors and windows and do not respond to anyone who calls from the outside. The biggest temptation we will have is the devil who is going to imitate the voices of our loved ones. Mary, through Brother David Lopez, El Ranchilo (Texas), no date. 347:3

The faithful who trust in Mary will be warned ahead of time.

Do not be afraid about the three days of darkness that will come over the earth, because those who are living my messages and have a life of interior prayer will be alerted by an interior voice three days to one week before the occurrence. My Children must continue with repentance for their sins, and pray more as I have recommended. They should. get holy water, and blessed articles, and have special devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, having always a  vigil light in front of Him. Mary, through Brother David Lopez, El Ranchilo (Texas), September 11, 1987. 346:2a

Candles blessed by the priest will burn for days. Even lightning strikes cannot extinguish them.

There will come three days of complete darkness. Only blessed candles made of wax will give some light during this horrible darkness. One candle  will last for three days, but they will not give light in  the houses of the godless. Lightning will penetrate your houses, but it will not put out the blessed candles. Red clouds, like blood, will cross the sky, and the crash of thunder will shake the earth to its very core. The ocean will cast its foaming waves over the land, and earth will be turned into a huge graveyard. Mary, through Marie de la Fraudais, 19th century, no date. 353:2

Nothing electrical will work, not even battery clocks!

She told me that the hours will be exactly seventy-two, and the only way to count them is with mechanical clocks, because there will not be any electricity. After this purification, there will be spring. Everything will be green, and everything will be clean. The water will be crystal clear, even the water from the faucets in houses. There will be no contamination in the water, nor the air, nor the river. Mary, through Brother David Lopez (El Ranchilo), Texas, September 11, 1987. 348:1

Satan will be destroyed at this time.

Now is the time. The abyss is opening. Here is the king of king of darkness, here is the Beast with his subjects, calling himself the savior of the world. He will rise proudly into the air to go to Heaven. He will be smothered by the breath of the Archangel Saint Michael. He will fall, and the earth, which will have been in a continuous series of evolutions for three days, will open up its fiery bowels; and he will have plunged for eternity with all his followers into the everlasting chasms of hell. And water and fire will purge the earth and consume all the works of men's pride and all will be renewed. God will be served and glorified. Mary, through Melanie Calvat and Maximin Giraud, LaSalette (France), October 1988. 338:1

There will be two types of punishments.

God will send two punishments; one will be in the form of wars, revolutions and other evils; it shall originate on earth. The other will be sent from Heaven. There shall come over the whole earth an intense darkness lasting three days and three nights. Nothing can be seen, and the air will be laden with pestilence which will claim mainly, but not only, the enemies of religion. It will be impossible to use any man-made lighting during this darkness, except blessed candles. He, who out of curiosity, opens his window to look out, or leaves his home, will fall dead on the spot. During these three days, people should remain in their homes, pray the rosary and beg God for mercy . .

All the enemies of the Church, whether known or unknown, will perish over the whole earth during that universal darkness with the exception of a few whom God will soon convert. The air shall be infected by demons who will appear under all sorts of hideous forms. Religion shall be persecuted, and priests massacred. Churches shall be closed, but only for a short time. The Holy Father shall be obliged to leave Rome. Mary, through Anna Maria Taigi. 352:3-4

The time of justice will be ended.

The reign of the Fathers mission was complete with the deluge of the flood; the reign of the Sons mission was complete with the deluge of blood on the Cross; the reign of the Holy Spirits mission will be complete with the deluge of fire and love and justice in the latter days. Saint Louis de Montfort, (1673-1716), no date. 

WHEN THE DARKNESS ENDS FEW REMAIN ALIVE

Some statements indicate that, after the chastisement, none are alive; others say a few are left. Some statements say that all the good people will be protected, others say that man of them will also die.

No one will remain alive.

But after the darkness the earth remained waste. The beautiful warm sun empty, without human beings. Mary, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), 1945. 353:3

A great part of humanity will have been destroyed.

An unforeseen fire will descend over the whole earth, and a great part of humanity will be destroyed. This will be a time of despair for the impious: with shouts and satanic blasphemy, they will beg to be covered by the mountains, and they will try to seek refuge in caverns, but to no avail. Those who remain will find Gods mercy in my power and protection, while all who refuse to repent of their sins will perish in a sea of fire! Mary, through Sister Elena Leonardi, no date. 351:2

Only a fourth of mankind will survive.

During a darkness lasting three days the people given to evil will perish so that only one fourth of mankind will survive. Mary, through Sister Mary of Jesus Crucified, Pau, (d. 1878).

The persecutors of the church will all be dead.

The death of the impenitent persecutors of the Church will take place during the three days of darkness. He who outlives the darkness and the fear of these three days will think that he is alone on earth because the whole world will be covered by carcasses. Mary, through Gaspar del Bufalo, 19th century, no date. 351:3

Both wicked and righteous will have been slain.

The bodies of the wicked and the righteous will cover the face of the earth. The famine that follow will be severe. All plant-life will be destroyed as well as three-fourths of the human race. This crisis will be sudden and the punishment will be worldwide. Mary, through Marie de la Fraudais, 19th century, no date. 353:2

Hardly anyone still alive, but the good ones will be all right.

An angel came from heaven inviting the seeress: Come with Me! And they flew above the earth for a long time in a southernly direction. When they landed on the ground, the Angel left and the Lord Jesus appeared. He wore a white robe and a blue cloak. The Lord said: Julka, I shall measure the Earth with My Yardstick ad shall arrange it according to My Plan as I intended it. One could see neither a house nor a hut. The Lord replied: We are in a region after the great chastisement . . The chastisement is over! The seeress: O Lord, I cannot see any people! The Lord Jesus only smiled.

Then Julka noticed an old man in the south. He came closer with heavy steps. When He suddenly saw living people, He was surprised and stopped. He recognized the Lord Jesus, come closer to Him and said: I adore You, Lord Jesus Christ, My God! I thank you that You found it worthy to be here! I am alone and exhausted. I do not know where to go to find anyone, and You Yourself have come to make me happy!

Lord Jesus came very close to him, caressed and comforted him: You will find people who are still alive. However, before you meet, you must walk a distance of one hundred or even two hundred kilometers. Be reassured you will find them! I warn you through My chosen ones and prophets, yet I have but few zealous priests and monks, who call dead souls, with a strong voice, to awake from their deadly sleep before My Second Coming. Those who do not believe that I Am, will see Me on the Day of Judgment, when I come in Glory as God of Heaven and earth, and all creation.

To the good I shall then be all joy, but to the wicked, fear and affliction. Loud crying will come from the earth and there will be no more time for anything. The way you are at that moment you will remain. Some will die, others will survive, in accordance with Gods will. It will be terrible! That is why I appeared with Tears of Blood as a sign of the arrival of the chastisement in the world. Christ child, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), October 1975. 362v - 363:2

Those who remain will live forever with Mary.

Though many shall perish, those who are worthy of My new world shall therefore flourish in it. And bring forth a new life which shall rekindle that which has been lost. The chastisements are just. Rejoice in My Fire of Love. For it is in being that those who remain faithful unto Me shall have everlasting life. Mary, through three adults, Lubbock (Texas), June 13, 1988. 356:1

All who have repented will be saved.

Tell the Church that she must renew her message to peace to the whole world, because the hour is grave. Satan is directing the world, he seduces minds . . All those who come to repentance . . will be saved. Satan will be destroyed; thereafter it will be only Peace and Joy. Mary, through Madaleine, Normandy (France), March 1, 1974.

Everyone will either be slain or remain on earth.

And there is a great myth that the so-called good people will be taken from the earth and the so-called bad people remain. Everyone will remain. The so-called good people will have their focus on Heaven. They will be in what Our Lady calls eternal adoration. And you will have the heavenly gaze as your focus and will no longer be earthly because you will be completely focused on God. You may be aware of your surroundings but you wont have despair or worry, fright, or any of the human emotions. Yu will be wrapped in a state of eternal adoration. For those who did not choose to convert, they will retain an earthly view because they will be of the earth and they will fell despair and agony of the chastisements. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992. 323v-324 top.

Yet another cross will be seen in the air.

The Glorious Cross, or the Sign of the Son of man, is the announcement of the approaching return in glory of the risen Jesus. Mary, through Madaleine, Normandy (France), May 3, 1974.

Yet, when He returns there will still be wicked people on the earth.

His Second Coming, beloved children, will be like the first. As was His first . . there will be a denial of God, and obstinate rejection of Him. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), December 24, 1978.  

THE COMING OF CHRIST

AND MARY'S NEW JERUSALEM

There will be no resurrection, and no one will be taken to heaven.  Christ will return to the earth, and the New Jerusalem, future home of Mary and her children, will come to earth.

The apparitions give the impression that, after renewing the earth, Christ will again leave, and Mary will rule this world and be worshiped by her children.

Jesus and Mary descend to the earth.

Our Lord Jesus and His heavenly Mother descended to their previous position . . The earth appeared reborn. Julka, statements, with quotations from Christ child, Zagreb (Croatia), May 31, 1976. 362:3-5

There will be one shepherd, and it will be the pope.

The unbelievers say that I do not exist, and deny Me, since I cannot be seen anywhere. As you have seen, so it will be. I shall come quickly and in splendor. All My creatures who survive the Great Tribulation will see Me. No one will then be able to say that I do not exist, because I shall be near the earth; and all the creatures of the earth will hear My Voice. They will see Me present then, and, for the second time, at the Final Judgment.

This will be the Little Flock and I shall hover over it. In those days there will be one Shepherd and one Faith, that of the Roman Catholic Church, which I established when I walked visibly on the earth. After the distresses, which I am now permitting to come upon My obstinate people on earth, there will arise a fair and pure race and the earth will abound with My gifts. Christ child, through Julka, Zabreb (Croatia), no date. 353:v-354:1

The New Jerusalem will alight on the earth.

Even after all these chastisements come to pass, even then, there will be one hour of grace remaining. And in that hour of grace, even the worst of the worst that have undergone the chastisements will be given the last opportunity for conversion. The New Jerusalem will settle upon the earth. All evil will no longer exist and we will be in perpetual paradise, just as God planned in the beginning. Theresa Lopez, Denver (Colorado), question-and-answer period at end of a speech by this visionary, November 11, 1992.

The faithful ones, who have trusted Mary, will be led by her into the Holy City.

Allow yourselves to be drawn by the enchantment of your heavenly Mother and follow Me, in the wake of my sweet fragrance, in order to go down with Me to meet the Holy City, which will come down out of heaven, at the end of the painful purification and of the great tribulation in which you are living in these last times. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), December 8, 1992. 

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH CONTINUES ON

After the new era begins, the Roman Catholic Church will continue on. It will be business as usual: The city of Rome, the cathedrals, the cardinals, bishops, and priests. The monasteries and nunneries. The daily masses, burning of candles, making medals, and saying rosaries. The worship before crucifixes and statues. It will continue on forever!

Saint Peter and Saint Paul will be sent down to earth to preach to the people, and then elect a new pope.

Churches shall be closed, but only for a short time. The pope shall be obliged to leave Rome. After the three days of darkness, Saint Peter and Saint Paul, having come down from Heaven, shall preach in the whole world and designate a new Pope. A great light will flash from their bodies and will settle upon the cardinal who is to become Pope. Christianity, then, will spread throughout the world. He is the Holy Pontiff, chosen by God to withstand the storm. At the end, he will have the gift of miracles, and his name shall be praised over the whole earth. Whole nations will come back to the Church and the face of the whole earth will be renewed. Russia, England, and China will come into the church. Mary, through Anna Maria Taigi, 352:4b-3531

The Church will be bigger and more magnificent than ever.

I saw in the distance great legions approaching. In the foreground I saw a Man on a white horse. Prisoners were set free and joined them. All the enemies were pursued. Then I saw that the Church was being promptly rebuilt, and she was more magnificent than ever before. Mary, Sister Anna-Katerina Emmerick, (19th century Augustinian nun), May 13, 1820.

The Roman Catholic faith will be the only one in the entire world. The pope will be the one true shepherd.

This will be the Little Flock and I shall hover over it. In those days there will be one Shepherd and one Faith, that of the Roman Catholic Church, which I established when I walked visibly on the earth. After the distresses, which I am now permitting to come upon My obstinate people on earth, there will arise a fair and pure race and the earth will abound with My gifts. Christ child, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), no date. 353:v-354:1

The sacrifice of the mass will continue to be the center of worship.

His glorious reign will shine forth above all in the triumph of His Eucharistic Person, because the Eucharist will once again be the heart and center of the whole life of the Church. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), June 14, 1979.

The faith and practice of everyone, will be that which was done back in the Dark Ages.

Life in the world will change. Afterwards men will believe like in ancient times. These few words imply a lot about extraordinary events, that lie ahead and for which Our Lady came to prepare the world at Medjugorje. Letter from  Tomislav Vlasic, Medjugorje (Croatia), August 15, 1983. 

A WORLD MADE NEW

Christ will renew the world in purity. Then life in cities, ships, planes, and politics will continue on forever.

Christ will be present, but it will be kingdom of His dear Mother.

After a certain amount of time, Our Lord Jesus commanded the great trial to cease. Thereupon the terrible darkness receded from the earth and, along with all the demons God from Heaven. I shall descend visibly amongst the Communities of the Little Flock which will be the Kingdom of My Most Holy Mother."-Statements, with quotations by Christ Child, by Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), May 31, 1976.

Everything will be clean and pure.

She told me . . after this purification, there will be spring. Everything will be green, and everything will be clean. The water will be crystal clear, even the water from the faucets in houses. There will be no contamination in the water, nor the air, nor the river. Statement by Brother David Lopez, El Ranchillo (Texas), no date. 

GREAT PEACE FOR A TIME

At last, the new era of peace comes to the faithful who have trusted in Mary. But, oddly enough, we will learn that it does not last very long.

Only through Mary can the faithful have peace.

If people do as I ask, there will be peace. Mary, through Lucia, Francesco, and Jacinta, Fatima (Portugal), 1917.

It will be called the Second Pentecost. It is because of Mary's victory that the faithful receive it.

You are entering into the last decade of this century of yours, when the events of which I have foretold you will come to completion and when My secrets will be revealed to you. You are entering into the time of the triumph of My Immaculate Heart. you are now close to the Second Pentecost. The second Pentecost will come like a river of grace and mercy which will purify the Church and make her poor and chaste, humble and strong, without a spot or wrinkle, all beautiful, in imitation of your heavenly Mother. You are here to be molded by me in order to become the new heart of this Church, completely renewed by the Spirit.Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), June 28, 1990. 359:1

The face of the earth is renewed.

The time is coming, when the face of the Earth will be renewed. After the great catastrophe, all regions of the world will be transformed. Christ child, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), October 1975. 363:3

Everything was beautiful.

The Earth was transformed into a most beautiful garden full of flowers. It was soaked in bright sun-beams and veiled in gleaming purity. Everything seemed transparent, orderly and pure. No mountains were seen, only plains and hills. Mary, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), October 21, 1974. 361:5

Everything is new.

I will transform the Earth and it will be new . . The people whose lives I spare will revere My Holy Name. The hearts will be shaken by My Voice, which they will hear after the Great Tribulation. Christ child, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), no date.

Mary says it will be a new age. But it will come because Mary conquered Satan (Genesis 3:15).

My Immaculate Mother will be victorious over sin with her power as Queen. The lily represents the cleansing of the world, the coming age of paradise, when humanity will live as if without sin. This will be a new world and a new age. This will be the age when mankind will get back what it lost in paradise. When My Immaculate Mother will step on the neck of the serpent, the gates of hell will be closed. The hosts of angels will be part of this flight. I have sealed My own with My seal that they shall not be lost in this flight. Christ child, through Sister Natalia, Hungary, (visions in 1940s ), no date.

The redemption will achieve its perfect fulfillment.

Jesus Christ is King, because it pertains to His divine mission to bring the created universe back to the perfect glorification of the Father, purifying it with the burning fire of the Holy Spirit, in such a way that it may become completely freed of every spirit of evil, of every shadow of sin, and thus be able to open itself to the enchantment of a new earthly paradise . . In this creation, renewed by a perfect communion of life with the Father, Jesus Christ will restore His reign of glory, so that the work of His divine redemption may attain its perfect fulfillment. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), November 22, 1992. 368:2

They will continue to keep the sacrifice of the mass.

His glorious reign will shine forth above all in the triumph of His Eucharistic Person, because the Eucharist will once again be the heart and center of the whole life of the Church. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), June 14, 1979.

We were earlier told that Satan was destroyed during the three-day darkness. Now we are told that he will be shut up and cannot get to us.

The new era, which I am preparing for you, coincides with the defeat of Satan and of his universal reign. All his power is destroyed. He is bound, with all the wicked spirits, and shut up in hell from which he will not be able to get out to do harm in the world. Herein, Christ reigns in the splendor of His glorified body, and the Immaculate Heart of your heavenly Mother triumphs in the light of her body, assumed into the glory of paradise. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), August 15, 1991. 361:1-2 

THEN SIN WILL AGAIN ARISE

Yet, with Satan out of the ways-in will still arise again! This concept would agree with Satan's lie, told from the beginning, that no one can really keep the law of God and stop sinning.

According to Mary, for a time the faithful will not do so. That which, for a time, will keep them pure will be journeying to Europe by ship or boat, and gazing again upon the miracle, displayed at those nine pine trees on the rocky hill near Garabandal. Seeing the miracle anew will keep them faithful to God. The glory of the miracle purifies them. No obedience necessary.

Purification of heart by returning to Garabandal.

These children and their children in turn will be able to go to Garabandal to gaze upon the sign, a testimony against the sins of past generations, an explanation of why the old world had to end and why there is now peace and unity, and a warning for the future, that never again must men and women offend our Lord so much. The children of today's generation will return home chastened by the sight of the permanent sign and by its power, for somehow it will enlighten their minds and fire their hearts to know their own sinfulness, and call them to repentance too, purifying them as they come near its glory. Mary, through Don Stefano Gobbi, Milan (Italy), May 19, 1991. 367:2

This sinless state will not last more than thirty years! Then a new cycle of sinning will begin again. The point being taught here is that the law of God cannot be obeyed.

After the distresses, which I am now permitting to come upon my obstinate people on earth, there will arise a fair and pure race and the earth will abound with My gifts. My sons and my daughters will keep My Commandments, thus everything will live and grow with My Blessing for thirty years. Later on My people will again tend to evil and to sin. I shall then send My messengers, Elijah and Enoch, from Heaven to instruct the people in the true faith. in the true Faith. Christ child, through Julka, Zagreb (Croatia), no date. 353:v-354:1
