Prophecies have always existed in God's Church. The Old and the New
Testament contain many and these are of faith. The prophetic spirit is
inherent in the Catholic Church. The refusal to believe in prophecies and
apparitions in general, including contemporary ones, (1) is to deny God the
right to speak and to make Himself known. They are always graces which
advise you about the divine threats and console you thereafter by making
you better understand the workings of Providence. Through His envoys, did
God not announce the Deluge, the burning of Sodom, the captivate in
Babylon and even the destruction of Jerusalem with the dispersal of the
Jewish people?
Today, with the intention of justifying the blows of His Anger before the final
Judgement, He is careful to warn you of the arrival of the great
chastisements.
Prophecies of unhappy events are of course always conditional. They are
nothing but fatherly warnings on the part of God to induce you through a
holy fear to return to Him. And this is why you must take very much to heart
the need to propagate them as an excellent means of converting others,
since the Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, virtue and salvation for
sinners.
Priests and bishops especially should remember that they are the sentries of
the People of God and they have a duty in conscience to announce the
storm of Divine Justice. It will certainly break out on the ungodly nations
sooner or later. For the nations, not pertaining to eternity, must be punished
visibly here below.
In spite of the grave warnings of the last century, are the people more
submissive to God, more religions and better ?
Alas, no ! When one knows - what a frightful fact ! - that two thirds of
mankind live in a state of mortal sin. Therefore you can be morally certain of
the approach of the Great Blow (2)unless there is a sincere and public
conversion, always presuming that God is not tired of waiting for you and
that He still wishes to give you, like certain dying people, the time to do
penance.
So do not hesitate ; give the heavenly warnings all the respect due to a
divine Message. Read them attentively and diffuse them (3)around you with
such zeal and devotion that souls will be moved and discard their lethargy,
to become better and even saintly."
Christ
"My Name is Love and I am full of Mercy. It is difficult to make Myself known
because souls reject the attributes of My Love ; humility and charity,
humiliations and self-denial. I do not tire from waiting but because of it I
suffer infinitely. 1 only await the trust of the World in order to lavish My
pardons on it".
