End of Times, Eschatology, Prophesies On Pope Francis, Prophesy On The Current Hierarchy of the Catholic Church
As we witness Mr. Bergoglio the False Prophet Dismantling the Holy Catholic Church with the help of his cohorts who are within the walls of the Vatican and outside the walls of the Vatican, who are all Free Masons whose only goal is to destroy Christianity and the Catholic Church… we bleed in our hearts, we cry tears from our hearts that cover our souls, who we really are. But we stand firmly rooted in Jesus Christ and we fight for the preservation of the Catholic Church and the teachings of God Our Father and Jesus Christ in order to save souls. We were born into this particular generation for one reason and one reason only and that is to help Our Father in Heaven through Jesus Christ to SAVE SOULS. We will NEVER give up. We will NEVER follow the False Prophet. We will ALWAYS pray for our True and Only and Final Pope, Pope Benedict who was ousted by this demonic group within the Church through a very evil plan they devised on March 17, 2011 to get him out of their way so they could place the false prophet on the Seat of Peter who will in turn hand the Seat of Peter over to the literal son of satan, the Antichrist who is now being prepared to take the global stage. The False Prophet will lead millions to accept this beast. Our Father in Heaven does not want to lose even one but He knows He will. He has written Prayers and Litanies that we are praying daily, which is supplication to Him for the many sins in this world and for the Salvation of Souls. The Warning is a great gift from God, for without it very few will ever enter the Heavenly Kingdom. Jesus is clear that NO ONE, not even Him, knows the exact hour or date of the Warning or His Second Coming, that Only God Our Father knows this but we are to accept, understand and prepare because ALL of this is happening in OUR LIFETIMES. We are the chosen generation. For now the laity, the Holy Remnant are leading this mission with Jesus as our Commander in Chief… but Jesus is clear that Soon, His Sacred Servants, His Priests who will not betray Him, will take the lead. Until this happens which will probably be after the Warning.. we the laity, the Holy Remnant will continue on the front lines of this Holy War for souls and we fight with every fiber in us. We take the hits, the persecution, the slander, the accusations, the lies, the name calling and we carry the cross with dignity as Our Mother of Salvation has instructed us and we march forward to victory with Jesus, with as many souls in tow as possible.
November 8 2010-2017 7th Anniversary of the Mission of Salvation and the Book of Truth
The Book of Truth is mentioned in Daniel 10:21. This is where a mysterious Book of Truth is referred to. Gabriel explains to Daniel that everything that has been revealed to him about the future and the end times is to be found in the Book of Truth. Daniel is told to seal it up as it is to be left to another time called “The Time Of The End.”
The Book of Truth, in 5 volumes so far, has been given to the world at this time in history through Maria Divine Mercy from the Holy Trinity and Mary, Mother of Salvation. It is about the Mission of Salvation for all souls in preparation for what is known as The Warning/The Illumination of Conscience/The Great Mercy/The Great Confession and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The Book of Truth is meant for this present generation.
I know many of you find the idea of Pope Francis being the false prophet found in scripture to be too difficult to swallow. In fact, it’s probably the one fact that will turn you away from the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy. But is this prophecy out of the realm of possibilies when we compare it to other prophecies and scripture?
Let’s start back in 1139 when St. Malachy went to Rome and had his incredible vision of the next 112 popes. This prophecy was then given to Pope Innocent II. These short prophetical announcements, in number 112, indicate some noticeable trait of all future popes from Celestine II, who was elected in the year 1130, until the end of the world. They are enunciated under mystical titles. Those who have undertaken to interpret and explain these symbolical prophecies have succeeded in discovering some trait, allusion, point, or similitude in their application to the individual popes, either as to their country, their name, their coat of arms or insignia, their birth-place, their talent or learning, the title of their cardinalate, the dignities which they held etc. The final prophecy of a pope is as follows, “In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End”. The popes were numbered up to 111 (Pope BenedictXVI) and the last pope listed, Petrus Romanus did not have a number. Why would all the other popes have a number except the last pope? And why is the only connection people can find between Pope Francis and Petrus Romanus is that Pope Francis has Italian parents (no tie with Petrus to be found)? The MDM messages claim the St. Peter himself will rule through the tribulation and in the New Heaven and New Earth found in scripture. Although it may sound farfetched, there actually is scripture that can back this up. John 21: 15 When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter,* “Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?”* He said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Feed my lambs.” 16He then said to him a second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” He said to him, “Tend my sheep.” 17He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of John, do you love me?” Peter was distressed that he had said to him a third time, “Do you love me?” and he said to him, “Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.” [Jesus] said to him, “Feed my sheep.”
St. Francis tells us himself that there will be a false pope in the end times, and that very few will follow the true pope, “The devils will have unusual power, the immaculate purity of our Order, and of others, will be so much obscured that there will be very few Christians who will obey the true Sovereign Pontiff and the Roman Church with loyal hearts and perfect charity. At the time of this tribulation a man, not canonically elected, will be raised to the Pontificate, who, by his cunning, will endeavour to draw many into error and death.
We also see from the prophecy from Premol (5th century), that in the end there will be too two leaders of the Catholic faith, one true and one false, how often has that happened in our church? “ And I see the King of Rome and his Cross and his tiara, shaking the dust off of his shoes, and hastening his flight to other shores. Thy Church, O Lord, is torn apart by her own children. One camp is faithful to the fleeing Pontiff, the other is subject to the new government of Rome which has broken the tiara. But Almighty God will, in His mercy, put an end to this confusion and a new age will begin. Then, said the Spirit, this is the beginning of the End of Time”
This prophecy seems to link up interestingly with the vision St. Pope Pius X’s had 1914. St. Pope Pius X (whose name was Giuseppe or Joseph in English) was Pope in (1903-1914) prayed with Franciscan Friars and went into a trance. When he got out of it & he said; “I have seen one of my successors, of the same name, who was fleeing over the dead bodies of his brethren. He will take refuge in some hiding place; but after a brief respite, he will die a cruel death.” (There is no other Pope who is named Joseph, except Pope Benedict XVI, Joseph Ratzinger)
Pope Pius X’s prophecy seems to line up with the 3rd secret revealed in Fatima. “ a Bishop dressed in White,˜we had the impression that it was the Holy Father’. Other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious going up a steep mountain, at the top of which there was a big Cross of rough-hewn trunks as of a cork-tree with the bark; before reaching there the Holy Father passed through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step, afflicted with pain and sorrow, he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on his way; having reached the top of the mountain, on his knees at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him, and in the same way there died one after another the other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious, and various lay people of different ranks and positions. Beneath the two arms of the Cross there were two Angels each with a crystal aspersorium in his hand, in which they gathered up the blood of the Martyrs and with it sprinkled the souls that were making their way to God.”
On May 11, 2010, while traveling on a plane to Portugal, Pope Benedict XVI was asked whether the Third Secret predicts the current clerical sexual abuse crisis in the Church, even though the text the Vatican released in 2000 says nothing of the crisis. The pope answered affirmatively, stating that “the sufferings of the Church come precisely from within the Church, from sins that exist in the Church.” Further, on May 13, 2010, before 500,000 pilgrims at Fatima, the Pope stated, “Whoever thinks that the prophetic mission of Fatima is over, is deceiving himself.” Pope Benedict XVI also said after becoming pope, “pray that I don’t flee for fear of the wolves.”
We see from Pope John Paul II that we are at the time of the battle between good and evil. “We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think that wide circles of American society or wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel.”
The Lord told Sister Agnes in her approved visions in Akita Japan in 1963 “The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against bishops. The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres…churches and altars sacked; the Church will be full of those who accept compromises and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord.”
Again from Pope Leo XIII in 1903 we hear that Satan will take over the chair of Peter “In the Holy Place itself, where has been set up the See of the most holy Peter and the Chair of Truth for the light of the world, they have raised the throne of their abominable impiety, with the iniquitous design that when the Pastor has been struck, the sheep may be scattered.”
We are warned from Venerable Fulton Sheen of a time when the pope speaks from Moscow (this is also found in the Garabandal messages that the pope will visit Moscow, then priests will need to go into hiding, then we will experience the Warning. “The pre-Communist Russian belief is that he will come disguised as the Great Humanitarian; he will talk peace, prosperity and plenty not as means to lead us to God, but as ends in themselves. . . .
. . . The third temptation in which Satan asked Christ to adore him and all the kingdoms of the world would be His, will become the temptation to have a new religion without a Cross, a liturgy without a world to come, a religion to destroy a religion, or a politics which is a religion–one that renders unto Caesar even the things that are God’s.
In the midst of all his seeming love for humanity and his glib talk of freedom and equality, he will have one great secret which he will tell to no one: he will not believe in God. Because his religion will be brotherhood without the fatherhood of God, he will deceive even the elect. He will set up a counter church which will be the ape of the Church, because he, the Devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the Antichrist that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. . . .
. . . But the twentieth century will join the counter church because it claims to be infallible when its visible head speaks ex cathedra from Moscow on the subject of economics and politics, and as chief shepherd of world communism.”
And finally the Bible itself tells us when the False Prophet will arise. Revelation 17: 8 ”The beast that you saw existed once but now exists no longer. It will come up from the abyss and is headed for destruction. The inhabitants of the earth whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world shall be amazed when they see the beast, because it existed once but exists no longer, and yet it will come again. 9Here is a clue* for one who has wisdom. The seven heads represent seven hills upon which the woman sits. They also represent seven kings:f 10five have already fallen, one still lives, and the last has not yet come,* and when he comes he must remain only a short while. 11The beast* that existed once but exists no longer is an eighth king, but really belongs to the seven and is headed for destruction.”
Many have linked this passage of Revelation up with the Latern Treaty in 1929 when Italy gave the Vatican back some of it’s land and allowed it to rule over itself once again. Interesting to note that the one that “still lives” in this line up is the blessed Pope John Paul II who will be canonized a saint and the “last has yet to come, and when he comes he must remain only a short while.” Is Pope Benedict in this line up who stepped down early. This would Pope Francis as the 8th king, (who’s kingdom belongs to the 7th).
So with so many saints, popes and visionaries pointing to the fact that we will have a false pope in the end, and we will have 2 leaders in the Catholic church in the end, is it not wise to at least keep our eyes open to the possibility that Pope Francis could possibly be a false pope? Especially when we can link prophecy and scripture itself up to him?
WRITTEN BY A FRIEND
A Response to Mark Miravalle’s Critique of Maria Divine Mercy: Part 1
by Arthur Policarpio
This article is the first part of a series in response to Dr. Mark Miravalle’s article condemning the prophecies and messages given by Our Lord to the Irish seer “Maria Divine Mercy”. In this article, we examine three (3) of the objections raised by Dr. Miravalle regarding the Messages.
Objection 1: The Emergence of the False Prophet
On February 11, 2012, exactly one year before the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, Maria Divine Mercy received this message from Jesus:
My poor Holy Vicar, Pope Benedict XVI, will be ousted from the Holy See in Rome. Last year, my daughter, I told you of the plot, within the corridors of the Vatican. A plan to destroy My Holy Vicar was devised in secret on the l7th March, 2011, and this will come to fruition, for it has been foretold.
Exactly one year after that message, Pope Benedict XVI made the unprecedented act of resigning from the papacy. The circumstances surrounding his resignation raise a lot of questions: Why would the pope resign right in the middle of the Year of Faith that he himself declared? He declared his resignation on February 11, 2013, and a mere two weeks after, his resignation took effect – why so abrupt?
On April 12, 2012, Jesus gave this astounding message to Maria Divine Mercy: “My beloved Pope Benedict XVI is the last true Pope on earth…. The next Pope may be elected by members within the Catholic Church, but he will be the False Prophet.”
It is this aspect of the Messages given to Maria Divine Mercy that has caused many well-meaning Catholics, as well as prominent theologians such as Dr. Miravalle, to reject the Messages. Dr. Miravalle, in his critical review, said:
The message directly contradicts Catholic teaching as to the legitimacy of a validly elected Pope. The message implies that an “anti-pope” can come from a valid conclave, which constitutes a false or “heretical” position. The alleged message goes on to claim, by deduction, that Pope Francis is in fact the “False Prophet.”
Below, I give seven (7) reasons that will hopefully show to the reader that the above prophecy concerning the emergence of the “False Prophet” is both possible and believable:
1. Antipopes. The history of the Catholic Church is replete with accounts of “antipopes” competing for the papacy. The first antipope emerged in the 3rd century. During the time of the Western Schism, there were as many as three popes competing for the papacy.
2. Antipopes in Deed. There have been historically-documented instances of popes in the past who may have been validly elected by a conclave, but who nonetheless were virtual “antipopes” in words and deeds. One such pope was Pope Boniface VIII, who forced his predecessor, Pope St. Celestine V, to resign after only five months as pope. Celestine V was the last pope in Church history to resign, prior to the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI. Boniface VIII put Celestine V into prison, in conditions so desolate and inappropriate for a former pope. Celestine V eventually died in prison after 10 months of captivity. History books are replete with the words and deeds of Pope Boniface VIII – his obsession with worldly power, forcing land owners from their lands and parceling these out to relatives, and many other deeds unbecoming of the status of the “Vicar of Christ” on earth. It is important to note that Benedict XVI visited the tomb of Pope St. Celestine V several times prior to his actual resignation – as if pointing us to the story of Celestine V, and the circumstances behind his resignation.
3. The Hidden Hand of Freemasonry. At the turn of the century, Pope Pius XII seized documents from a masonic lodge that contain chilling details of a plan by the secret sect to destroy the Catholic Church by infiltrating its ranks with freemasons. The goal, as stated by the “Alta Vendita” documents, is to cultivate “a pope according to our needs”. At the turn of the century, they almost achieved their goal, as only a last-minute intervention during the conclave by an alert Cardinal prevented Cardinal Rampolla from being elected pope. Cardinal Rampolla was later found to be a high-ranking member of a Satanic, masonic sect.
4. Corroborating Prophecies from Reputable Marian Apparitions. Many reputable Marian apparitions have prophesied about the “end times” – the times that lead to the Second Coming of Jesus – and the “Great Apostasy” that will emerge in the Church. The messages of Mary given to Fr. Gobbi of the Marian Movement of Priests (containing Church imprimatur and nihil obstat) say explicitly that in the end times, the “man of iniquity” will sit in the chair of Saint Peter, and will “create a false church” by merging this with other religions. Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich warned of a coming great schism in the Church during the end times, as well as the “strange relationship” between two popes, one of whom will lead a false church. In Akita, Our Lady warned of great division in the Church, which “bishops against bishops, cardinals against cardinals…”. In La Sallette, Our Lady likewise warned of this crisis that would face the Church during the end times. Could all of these approved and reputable apparitions and prophetic messages be false? Or are these all messages from heaven, given to multiple sources, meant to warn us about the greatest evil and deception that will befall the Church during the end times?
5. The Bible has Prophesied about the Emergence of the False Prophet. The Book of Revelation warns that during the end times, the Antichrist and the False Prophet (the “false prophetess” referred to in Revelation) will rise and will greatly deceive God’s children: “And I saw, from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth of the false prophetess, three unclean spirits go out in the manner of frogs.” (Revelation 16:13). In the end, the Lord says that He will prevail, and that the Antichrist and the False Prophet will be defeated: “And the beast was apprehended, and with him the false prophetess, who in his presence caused the signs, by which she seduced those who accepted the character of the beast and who worshipped his image. These two were cast alive into the pool of fire burning with sulphur.” (Revelation 19:20).
Furthermore, the book of Daniel warns that in the end times, the “abomination of desolation” will take place in the Church, and the “daily sacrifice” (referring to the Holy Mass) will be abolished. This is in line with prophecies given to Maria Divine Mercy, as well as the messages given to Fr. Gobbi by Our Lady, which warn that the False Prophet will eventually abolish the daily sacrifice of the Mass by denying the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist through the changing of the words of consecration.
6. Not Meant to Divide the Church. The messages do not call us to rebel against the Church. On the contrary, it calls us to remain loyal to the Church and the hierarchy. The messages, however, do clearly prophesy that major major changes in the Church will happen very soon – changes in the sacraments, the Holy Mass, the Eucharist, tolerance for sin – all under the guise of “modernizing” the Catholic Church. All of these will culminate in the creation of a new, modern, “one world church” that will deny the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, and will merge the Catholic Church with other religions. Once these things happen, Jesus calls us to remain loyal and true to the Church – the TRUE Church, and the TRUE Faith.
7. Fulfillment of the Prophecies will Prove or Disprove. In the end, the fulfillment (or non-fulfillment) of the prophecies will prove or disprove the messages. Is it wise to dismiss these prophecies outright – with so many corroborating prophecies saying the same thing? What if they were true? It is wise to heed the story of people during the time of Noah – many laughed at him and did not believe in his prophecies. Eventually, when the prophesied Great Flood came true, they were unprepared, and got destroyed. Meanwhile, those who believed in the prophecy and prepared well were saved.
Objection 2: “Denial of the importance of Church evaluation of alleged message”
Dr. Miravalle says that “The alleged messages reject the importance of the Church’s investigation and subsequent judgment of the authenticity of the alleged message.” Miravalle says that the seer should herself to Church authorities for proper investigation, prior to spreading of the messages.
Below are some responses to the above objection:
1. There was no formal Church investigation of the messages given to all the prophets throughout salvation history. The “Church hierarchy” at the time of Jesus – the pharisees and sadducees – actually denied the Word of God Himself. There was no Church investigation of the prophecies of Noah, Ezekiel, Isaiah. Were these prophecies not valid because there was no formal investigation by the Church hierarchy? God has always prepared the world for important events throughout history via His prophets. If Jesus was indeed coming back in our generation, wouldn’t it be logical to assume that God will prepare for this most important event through an end time prophet?
2. A Potentially-Biased Investigating Panel. The “investigating panel” of any investigation against Maria Divine Mercy will be potentially a biased panel, since many portions of the Messages have to do with the internal corruption of the Church because of the infiltration of Freemasonry within its ranks. If indeed Freemasonry has infiltrated the ranks of the Church, an investigation of Maria Divine Mercy would almost guarantee the stifling of the messages by precisely those masonic forces from within – stopping God’s efforts to intervene and warn us on its tracks. It is like having a court case, where the accused and the judges/jury are one and the same.
3. Urgency to Spread the Messages. If a Church investigation is done, it will take decades to render a judgement on the messages (as past experience has shown) – thus defeating the whole purpose of giving the messages to mankind as quickly as possible because of their urgency. If Jesus is indeed coming back in our generation, as corroborated by many contemporary Marian apparitions and private revelations, then a decades-long investigation simply cannot be afforded. A case in point is Medjugorje. More than 40 millions pilgrims have visited the shrine, scores of conversions and healings have been reported, numerous religious vocations have been born – and yet 30 years after the start of the apparitions, the Church still hasn’t concluded its investigation. If Church authorities stopped the children of Medjugore from proclaiming and spreading the messages of Our Lady at the start of the apparitions, then we wouldn’t have had the benefit of all the wonderful spiritual fruits that we see today from Medjugorje.
4. Spiritual Fruits will be one of the Important Bases for Determining Authenticity – If the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy are truly of God, they will spread through the power of the Holy Spirit. A good example is Medjugorje – devotion has spread throughout the world, even without formal Church approval.
Another example is the messages given by Our Lady to the Italian priest Fr. Stefano Gobbi. There was no formal Church investigation at the start of the messages/locations. And yet, these messages have spawned a worldwide Marian Movement of Priests and Laity that includes hundreds of priests and bishops, as well as millions of lay faithful.
Yet another example is in the Philippines, where devotion to Our Lady Mediatrix of All Grace has flourished – primarily as a result of reported apparitions of Our Lady way back in the 1950s in Lipa, Philippines. The apparitions have actually been declared by the Church to be not supernatural in origin. And yet, this has not stopped people from flocking to Lipa, and has not stopped devotion to Mary Mediatrix from flourishing.
In all of these cases, if the Church had stepped in right at the start of these messages, and prohibited their spreading (until after a complete investigation has been completed), then the messages would not have been given the opportunity to spread and generate the spiritual fruits that we now see today in Medjugorje, the Marian Movement of Priests and Laity, Lipa, and many others. In fact, we need to precisely give time for the messages to spread to see if they will bear spiritual fruit in the form of conversions, prayers, healings, etc.
Objection 3: Spiritual Fruits
Dr. Miravalle says that the messages are characterized by the “absence of the authentic Christian fruits of spiritual peace, joy, and trust, and charity; and, in their place, manifestations of greater fear, anxiety, and dominant negativity.”
Furthermore, regarding the tone and character of the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy, Dr. Miravalle says: “Fear-producing tones of divine retribution, anger, justice, and, disaster are the principal themes placed into the alleged words of God the Father and Jesus.”
Below are four (4) responses to the above objections:
1. The Fallacy of Hasty Generalization
The above is a fallacy known in logic as “hasty generalization”, which is essentially making a conclusion based on insufficient evidence – it usually involves making a conclusion based on a survey from a small group that fails to sufficiently represent an entire population. A fallacy is “faulty logic”, and as such conclusions made using faulty logic are incorrect. An example of this fallacy is as follows. A person travels through a town for the first time. He sees 10 people, all of them children. The person then concludes that there are no adults in the town.
The argument of Dr. Miravalle related to the above is the same. He randomly picks up a few phrases from the messages, then concludes on the bases of these few phrases (without considering the entirety) that the entire messages are of a certain character – lacking in love, promoting fear, etc. This is highly incorrect, as a close reading of the entire messages – not just phrases and pockets – will show that the messages are in fact full of love and concern.
The messages are full of hope – it talks about God’s plan to intervene in these end times to save His children from the grip of the evil one. It talks about love – that God, in His mercy, will not abandon us in these difficult times, and will forcefully intervene to save His creation.
Below are some excerpts from the first message of Jesus given to Maria Divine Mercy on November 9, 2010, which gives us an idea of the general tone and intent of the Book of Truth:
I love you all so much that I gave up My Life for you. Have you forgotten this? Through My Divine Mercy I implore all of you to turn back to Me one last time. Through My Mercy I come back to earth to try and help you to look into your hearts and seek the Truth. Do not allow the Deceiver to destroy you. Seek the Truth. Love – Pure Love – is the path to My Father’s Kingdom.
Please remember My Divine Mercy. I love each and every single one of you. Pray for forgiveness now. Hold out your hands and let Me guide you to My Father’s Kingdom. I am returning to earth as foretold. That time is drawing so quickly that many will not be prepared…I beseech you to listen and heed My Word. I love all of you. I ask you to pray for conversion before the End Times, which are almost upon us. I have no wish to frighten My followers but I beseech all of you now to save souls.
How can the above be characterized, in Miravalle’s own words, as “fear-producing tones of divine retribution, anger, justice, and, disaster?” If one reads the above message sincerely and humbly, one cannot help but feel the love of Jesus – but at the same time, the urgency of His call for conversion.
2. Jesus has always spoken the Truth – often harshly – even if it hurts
One of the objections of Dr. Miravalle to the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy is that for Miravalle, the “messages are replete with negative…rants of condemnation and judgement in words and expressions which gravely misrepresent the infinite mercy and love of the Father and of the Son”.
We have already discussed previously why the above is false reasoning – it is a “hasty generalization” fallacy which does not consider the entirety of the message, but instead merely lifts a few passages and takes them out of context.
However, another aspect of the above is that Miravalle, in effect, is saying to us that Jesus cannot speak this way – Jesus cannot speak “rants of condemnation and judgement”.
If we look at the Bible, though, we will realize that Jesus has always spoken the truth against sin, oftentimes in harsh “rants of condemnation and judgement”. He was especially harsh against the Pharisees and Sadducees (Matthew 3:7-10):
You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. And do not think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.
We must not forget that while God is merciful, He is also just, and in His justice, He will condemn sin. There are many, many other instances of Jesus in the Bible speaking in harsh tones (Matthew 9:47): “And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into hell…”
Jesus even went beyond words in condemning the sins of the Pharisees (Mark 11: 15-17):
…when he had entered into the temple, he began to cast out the sellers and the buyers in the temple. And he overturned the tables of the moneychangers and the chairs of the vendors of doves. And he would not permit anyone to carry goods through the temple. And he taught them, saying: “Is it not written: ‘For my house shall be called the house of prayer for all nations?’ But you have made it into a den of robbers.
If we will apply Dr. Miravalle’s criteria (Jesus cannot speak in harsh “rants of condemnation and judgement”), then we will conclude that the above passages could not have come from Jesus!
Fast forward to the present time, and we see horrible sins that were never even present during the time of the Pharisees, and which cry out to God for vengeance: abortion, homosexuality, devil-worship, satanic cults, pornography…the list goes on and on. The conditions of the present time are much, much worse compared to the time of the Pharisees. Who are we to apply limits to the kind of language and tone that the Son of God ought to adopt in these times?
3. Holy Fear of God’s Divine Justice is Beneficial for our Souls
Yes, sometimes the Truth hurts. Yes, sometimes Warnings hurt. Yes, the Justice of God may cause fear in us – and rightfully so, if we are living a life of sin, and risk losing our life to eternity. If you see a friend walking straight to a cliff, oblivious of the sure fall to death, wouldn’t you shout, scream, and beg him to change his path?
Holy fear – particularly in cases where there is risk of losing our souls for all eternity – is good. In fact, the problem with the world today is the opposite: people are precisely no longer afraid of the consequences of sin. People are no longer afraid of hell. Many people no longer believe in the eternal punishment of hell – some have even gone to the extent of actually embracing hell, and worshipping Satan through freemasonry and new age practices.
If you are God, and you see billions of your children not mindful of their souls and headed straight to hell because of their current ways, wouldn’t you try to wake up your children and try to re-ignite this holy fear in their hearts?
3. Spiritual Fruits
Dr. Miravalle contends that spiritual fruits “are substantially absent from the alleged messages.” In essence, Miravalle is saying that the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy have not led to any spiritual fruits and benefits. Again, this is faulty logic – hasty generalization. Yes, we may encounter a few people who have not borne any spiritual fruit as a result of reading the messages – but it is faulty logic to assume that the entire population is as such.
Has Dr. Miravalle talked to every single one of the people who have read the messages – and have found that every single one of them have not derived any spiritual fruits? The only way to properly conclude that the messages have not led to any spiritual fruits is to do a global survey of everyone who has read them, and conclusively determine that there was not a single spiritual fruit derived by those who have read the messages.
On the contrary, there are many, many people who have testified to being touched by the messages, and who have embraced the call to fasting, sacrifice and prayer. Below are just some of the actual, verbatim testimonials by real people regarding the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy (as contained in the “comments” portion of a book review published regarding the Book of Truth):
Mae Diamez-Isidto (August 16, 2013): “I was once an example of Doubting Thomas until I read MDM messages, pray the Crusade Prayers, pray Holy Rosary and Chaplet of the Divine Mercy to overcome doubts. I am a Catholic since birth and growing up I did things that displeased Lord Jesus Christ.But I seek for Him and now I found Him. Been waiting for His second coming.”
Hellenious Kwekunab Dadzie (August 24, 2013): “Am truly overwhelmed and sorry for my sins, am a sinner and am not worthy but all I ask of u lord is to forgive our iniquity. lord have mercy on us. let us be among of ur second coming. Amen.”
Laura Javier Real: “God Loves us all! that’s why he is warning us to do something! before it happened.. Jesus love is Pure and simple! We just have to get together and do a crusade of Prayers to god and to our blessed mother! to all d Saints and Angels in Heaven, so that satan will be crushed forever and stop harming God’s children on earth! Praise be to God! forever and ever, AMEN.”
4. Call to Prayer
Jesus encourages frequent attendance to the Holy Mass, Eucharistic devotion, as well as the daily recitation of the Rosary and the Chaplet of Divine Mercy. Below are just a few of the many, many calls for prayer that are found in the messages:
“Let Me remind all My children everywhere to recite My Divine Mercy chaplet every single day. Pray too, and I include all Christian faiths, the Holy Rosary to My Beloved Mother for this powerful prayer will weaken Satan’s power over My children.” (13 June 2011)
“Patience, silent prayer daily, the formation of prayer groups, daily recital of the Divine Mercy Chaplet, fasting, and the Holy Rosary to My Beloved Mother combined, act as the perfect formula for saving souls.” (10 August 2011)
“…the miracle of the Holy Eucharist, present in all tabernacles all over the world, exists today and is there to fill your poor undernourished and empty souls with My Presence”. (14 April 2011)
One of the most important spiritual fruits of the Messages are the collection of “Crusade Prayers” that Jesus encourages us to recite every day. If one sincerely reads the Crusade Prayers, one cannot help but notice and feel the Divine hand that surges through the words of the prayers. Many, many people have started praying these Crusade Prayers. In fact, there are instances of priests, nuns, and ordinary lay people going out of their way to reproduce the prayers – at their own cost – and going out of their way, contributing their precious time, to spread these prayers to many people.
Maria of Dublin’s private revelations are part of a financial and corporate interest in northern Ireland . While singing saying the Chaplet of Divine Mercy at the bedside of the terminally ill may provide legitimate efficacious grace the entire Divine Mercy theology is evangelical lutheranism it’s philosophy is of a heterodox nature and borders heresy ….These multiple Irish seers, divine mercy , ecumenism , religious liberty , and the rest of it are all tied up with the new order of the Church , the counter-fit Catholicism
Interesting that Mark Miravalle would be the one to refute them , when he has issues with his own promotion of our lady of all Nations theology . While he has done a splendid job in years past promoting the cause of the 5th dogma of the Blessed Mother , the mediatrix of all graces – by appealing to sacred tradition of antiquity – His subsequent OL of All Nations is heterodox and problematic as is that image .
Stick with Church approved revelation Fatima , Lourdes , Knock , The Three Days of Darkness Marie Jenney and many others It would take half a lifetime just to properly text book study those Scripture warns us about seeking out new message ” many false prophets have gone out into the world ‘ ( this includes supposed prophets trying to unmask other false prophets) There is a revolution raging in the world that has architects and organized implementers – study the relationship between the secret societies and talmudic Judaism and the many Popes of the centuries warnings and teachings on this subject and the convergence of arianism that are warring against the restoration of the social reign of the Kingship of Christ and the Reign of Mary .

Apostolate of Militia Immaculatae And Divine Mercy – AMIDM

Great post by Michael.
All this information when connecting the dots though was visible & coherently clear & present, gradually building to the inevitable from the start of Pope Benedict’s pontificate, and climaxing from as early as 2009 onwards. By 2011 it was just a matter of time before team Bergoglio would surface.
Freemasonry was banned by Popes in 1738 & notably 13th March 1826. 87 years to the day when Bergoglio was elected. Under Bergoglio, along with the detail Michael notes in the video, the Vatican under Bergoglio has actually publicly opened up and approved dialogue & partnership with the enemy.
Other joining of the dots:
Our Lady of Good Success 16th century – the plot now unfolding, started in 1930s
Blessed Catherine Anne Emmerich – 2 popes & dark church rising
St. John Bosco – council attacks
Marie Julie Jahenny
Our Lady of LaSalette – Rome looses the faith & becomes the seat of the Antichrist
The Permanent instruction of the Alta Vendita
Pope Leo XIII vision – 1884 which gave us the Prayer to St Michael
Our Lady of Lourdes – reparation
St Gemma
Our Lady of Fatima – threat of the enemies & infiltration
St Maximilian Kolbe – the mas0nic activity he saw in St Peters square
St Faustina – Divine Mercy & revelations of the return of Christ due to the evil in the world
St Therese of Lisieux
More “Victim souls” in the 20th century than all combined in previous centuries, too many to mention: Sister Consolata Betrone, Blessed Anna Maria Taigi, Blessed Alexandrina da Costa, Sr. Josefa Menendez,
Sr Lucia letters & warnings, continuation of St John Bosco
St Padre Pio
Our Lady of Garabandal – the Warning. Mentioned in Scripture.
Our Lady of Akita – Justice
Fr Malachi – Revelations of the enemy within the Church
St John Paul II – who knew what was coming, hence he’s push to fight the inevitable evil that was surrounding him. In 1970’s, as pope in 1980 & 1997 he is found to publicly say many profound things that if all the previously things were known by a soul, you would know exactly what he meant.
Pope Benedict XVI – from he’s inauguration mass in April 2005 where he said, “pray for me that I don’t flee from fear of the wolves” (Bergoglio came second in the 2005 conclave. He was the leader of the enemy) to he’s 2009 gesture of praying at the tomb of a pope who resigned to the many troubles and challenges that publicly started to surface in 2011, where the dots could be joined if souls were in tune to what the saints and heaven had been telling us…
The Dossier – 2012 as mentioned by Michael in the video.
Maria Divine Mercy – first message November 8th 2010. Predicted all that has and is unfolding would fall under the reign of the next “pope” after the true & remaining Pope Benedict
March 13th 2013 – the arrival of Bergoglio.
He’s Buenos Aries history is shocking.
He’s history as a psychology teacher gives a great reflection on the style of he’s pontificate.
The amount of years he took to become an ordained priest after Vatican 2 is telling.
The denial by Bergoglio early in he’s pontificate of the findings of the Dossier.
St Gallen Mafia – Danneels, Martini, Marx, Kasper, all previous known opponents to Benedict, all in favour of Bergoglio. Plus the likes of McCarrick and about 20-30 others and no so many you can’t count.
As Michael says in the video, the many public praises by Mas0nic groups of Bergoglio, the two most famous the day after he’s election greetings from the grand master of Italy & Argentina. Also from the Philippines a little later.
By August 2013 I had countered over 80 incidences in the news, actions by Bergoglio or by he’s team, that when viewed in light of the messages and warnings from Heaven about what would come, by August if vigilant souls were paying attention and willing to listen, there was enough evidence to know that with the arrival of Bergoglio the sum of all the warnings had come!
At the time I told all religious I was in contact with. None of them would listen or believe.
5-6 years on, I’m sure all of them now would at least suspect, if not know the truth of Bergoglio and his many willing team members.
Viganò testimony, 1,2 & 3.
Review Mas0nic Synods of 2014, 2015 & 2018.
Amoris Laetitia was partly written in 2005 between Bergoglio and the “art of kissing” author Archbishop Fernandez
It’s easy to tell who they are. And sadly the Archbishop of Melbourne is one of them. He was just recently appointed and instantly comes in openly flaunting Bergoglio’s agenda. Just have to follow he’s twitter to see he is on the next level to Cupich, Coleridge & Farrell. Please pray for Comensoli – it’s clear he idolises Bergoglio and is well entrenched in he’s agenda and ideology. Hopefully just caught up in the false promises, not the actual intent.
