Two more Healings
Dear Friends,
Jairus' Daughter and the Woman with a Hemorrhage
When Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed him, for they were all waiting for him. And a man named Jairus, an official of the synagogue, came forward. He fell at the feet of Jesus and begged him to come to his house, because he had an only daughter, about twelve years old, and she was dying. As he went, the crowds almost crushed him.
And a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years, who had spent her whole livelihood on doctors and was unable to be cured by anyone, came up behind him and touched the tassel on his cloak. Immediately her bleeding stopped. Jesus then asked, "Who touched me?" While all were denying it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds are pushing and pressing in upon you." But Jesus said, "Someone has touched me; for I know that power has gone out from me." When the woman realized that she had not escaped notice, she came forward trembling. Falling down before him, she explained in the presence of all the people why she had touched him and how she had been healed immediately. He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has saved you; go in peace."
While he was still speaking, someone from the synagogue official's house arrived and said, "Your daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher any longer." On hearing this, Jesus answered him, "Do not be afraid; just have faith and she will be saved." When he arrived at the house he allowed no one to enter with him except Peter and John and James, and the child's father and mother. All were weeping and mourning for her, when he said, "Do not weep any longer, for she is not dead, but sleeping."
And they ridiculed him, because they knew that she was dead. But he took her by the hand and called to her, "Child, arise!" Her breath returned and she immediately arose. He then directed that she should be given something to eat. Her parents were astounded, and he instructed them to tell no one what had happened. (Passage from the Gospel of St. Luke 8:40-56)
Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,
"May peace be with you, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters living in the world. You know that I love children so it was My joy to bring back to life Jairus' daughter. I did not want the people to know the story because the people would never leave Me alone and I would have trouble with the Jewish religious leaders.
This girl had died but I only had to say these words, 'Child, arise' and she was completely healed and full of life again. This shows that I have the power of God to heal people. I also healed this woman with hemorrhages for many years. The mere fact that she touched My garment without seeing her, power left Me to heal her.
Yes the people who saw what I did were astonished because they had never seen this before. However, many of My followers have this gift of healing. My brother Melvin healed many in My name. Yes, I am working today in the same way I worked when I was on earth. At the Little Shrine of My Blessed Mother, people have been healed of backache, paralyses, painful legs, sore arms and shoulders, cancer and many other sicknesses. I am the one who is at work and I work through My brothers whom I love."

Medjugorje Day By Day July 15 - LIVE IN MUTUAL LOVE
"The Church believes that a holy hour spent before the Blessed Sacrament does more good for the well-being of the world than whole days spent in talking about progress to the utter oblivion of the fact that the only true progress consists in the diminution of the traces of original sin; she believes that a penitent returning to God is of far more consequence than the cancellation of war debts; that an increase of sanctifying grace in a soul is of far more value than the increase of international credit; that a group of cloistered nuns in prayer are more effective in preserving world peace than a group of world politicians discussing peace to the forgetfulness of the Prince of Peace" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen).
Mother Teresa -
There is great humility in God. He can stoop down to people like us and become dependent on us for His work to live, to grow, to bear fruit. And He could easily have done it without us. Yet He stooped down and called us to do it.
Meditations by Padre Pio -
I beseech you by the meekness of Jesus, and by the bowels of mercy of the heavenly Father, never to slacken up on the path of virtue. Keep on running and don't ever make up your mind to stop, for you know that to stand still on this path is equivalent to retracing one's steps (Letters II p 274).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
The greater our love for God, the less our needs in this world
"Contentment is based on the idea that `our sufficiency is not from ourselves but from God.' The soul does not desire or lack more than what God has supplied him. His will suits his state after he has exhausted his resources and his desire does not exceed his power. Hence everything that happens is judged to be as good and worthy of Divine appointment. As Socrates observed: `He is nearest to God who needs the fewest things.'"
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -
One day, when I was at adoration, my spirit seemed to be dying for Him, and I could no longer hold back my tears. I saw a spirit of great beauty who spoke these words to me: "Don't cry-says the Lord." After a moment I asked, "Who are you?" He answered me, "I am one of the seven spirits who stand before the throne of God day and night and give Him ceaseless praise." Yet this spirit did not soothe my yearning, but roused me to even greater longing for God. This spirit is very beautiful, and his beauty comes from close union with God. This spirit does not leave me for a single moment, but accompanies me everywhere. (471)

These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.
July 15 - LIVE IN MUTUAL LOVE
Today the Blessed Mother speaks of love:
Dear children, today I call you to live and practice love in your life love for God and for your neighbor.
Without love, dear children, you can do nothing. Therefore I call you to live in mutual love. Only in that way can you love and accept me, as well as all those around you who are coming to the parish.
Then everyone will sense my love through you. And so I beseech you, dear children, to start loving form today with an ardent, powerful Love the same love with which I love each one of you (Weekly Message May 29, 1986).
St. John speaks of love casting out all fear.
God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them. Love has been perfected among us in this : that we may have boldness on the day of judgment, because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love (1 Jan 4 :16-18).
Reflection:
In this passage from John's first letter, we are assured that, « there is no fear in love. » This is illustrated in a story set in Nazi Germany. An order had gone out the incurables and the insane were no longer to be a burden on the Reich.
Three high officials descended upon the Bethel institution (a huge hospital for epileptics and the mentally ill). « Herr Pastor », they said, « the Fueher has decided that all these people must be gassed. » Dr. Von Bodelschwingh, the administrator, looked at them calmly. « You can put me into a concentration camp, if you want; that is your affair.
But as long as I am free, you do not touch one of my patients. I cannot change to fit the times or the
wishes of the Fuehrer. I stand under orders from our Lord Jesus Christ. »
Application:
Can you remember a time when, out of love, you chose to stand up for the right thing? Today, pray for the love that casts our all fear, and for the courage of faith.
Medjugorje Day By Day July 14 - GOD COMES TO HELP EVERYONE
"You will always find a friend in Jesus in the Holy Eucharist to console you in your moment of need. He will never fail to help you" (St. John Vianney).
"Grant that my soul may hunger after Thee, the Bread of Angels, the Refreshment of holy souls, our daily and supersubstantial Bread" (St. Bonaventure).
Mother Teresa -
Holiness is the greatest gift that God can give us because for that reason He created us.
Padre Pio -
Where there is no obedience there is no virtue, where there is no virtue, there is no goodness, no love, and where there is no love, God is not there and without God we do not go to paradise.
These form a stairway and if one step is missing from the stairway we fall down (AP).
Archbishop Fulton Sheen -
The good of sacrifice makes the effort worthwhile
"The violin strings, if they were conscious, would complain when the musician tightened them, but this is because they do not see that the sacrificial strain was necessary before they could produce a perfect melody. Evils actually become lighter by patient endurance and benefits are poisoned by discontent."
St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY
These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.
July 14 - GOD COMES TO HELP EVERYONE
Questioned about curing the sick, the Virgin responded:
I cannot cure. God alone cures. Pray! I will pray with you. Believe firmly. Fast and do penance. I will help you as long as it is in my power to do so. God comes to help everyone. I am not God. I need your sacrifices and your prayers to help me (FY 12-83).
And in Matthew's gospel, the cure of a leper:
When Jesus had come down from the mountain, great crowds followed him; and there was a leper who came too him and knelt before him, saying, "Lord, if you choose, you can make me clean." He stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, "I do choose. Be made clean!" Immediately his leprosy was cleansed. Then Jesus said to him, "See that you say nothing to anyone; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, as a testimony to them" (Mt 8:1-4).
Reflection:
In ancient Israel, leprosy was a feared disease since there was no known cure. The term was used for a variety of similar diseases, and some forms were contagious. If a person contracted the contagious type, a priest declared him a leper and banished him from his home and city. He was sent to live in a community with other lepers until he either got better or died.
Yet when the leper begged Jesus to heal him, Jesus reached out and touched him, even though his skin was covered with the dread disease. Through a single touch, Jesus heals; when he speaks a single word, demons flee his presence. As Our Lady affirms today, her Son has authority over all earthly disease and every form of evil. In the future, when God cleanses the earth from sin, there will be no more sickness and death. Jesus' healing miracles, in scripture as well as in Medjugorje, are a foretaste of what will one day be experienced in the kingdom of God.
Application:
Today, lift up to God in prayer those who are sick in body, mind, or spirit.
Remember them especially on your next fast day.

Parameters of the Catholic Church In Respect of the End of Time
The Catholic Church says relatively little about future events leading up to Christ's Second Coming. Many of her teachings are rejections (either implicit or explicit), not affirmations, of particular beliefs such as the dispensational dichotomy between the Church and Israel, the Pre-Tribulational Rapture, and reigning of Jesus in the flesh upon the Earth for 1,000 years (Millenarianism). What she does teach is quite clear, as well as succinct: there will be a Second Coming, a time of trial which the Church must endure, an Antichrist, a conversion of Jews to Christ, a definitive judgment of all people, and the fulfillment of the Kingdom that has already begun in the Church. Within those parameters, Catholics may freely roam, search the Scriptures, and seek to better understand the Word of God. (A)
Remain Vigilant at All Times
Holy Scripture describes a three and one half year period known as the Tribulation which will be dominated by a most charismatic, duplicitous and tyrannical man. Initially, he will appear as a man of peace. He will seize control of the European Union, then the United Nations and later, the world. He will claim to be Jesus Christ having arrived the second time, and is known in Holy Scripture as the Antichrist. At the beginning of the Tribulation, he will declare himself a god and ruler of the one-world government, and will be the worst tyrant and persecutor of Christians in history. At such time, Satan will unleash his plan to deceive mankind into continuing its rebellion against God; and God’s just judgment will descend upon mankind for its wicked, unrepentant ways in order to prepare the world for the second coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ in glorious victory to usher in the Era of Peace.
"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only.” (cf. Mat 24:36) Indeed, no one knows the date of the end of time; but Holy Scripture tells us of signs that will precede it, and Jesus told us to remain vigilant at all times. "But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare; for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth. But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man." (cf. Luk 21:34-36)
Signs of the Times
“He answered them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.' And in the morning, 'It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.” (cf. Mat 16:2-3)
Holy Scripture tells us to look for the following signs to occur shortly before the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ [also refer to #357]:
The return of the Jews to their homeland – In Daniel 12, Daniel had a vision of a man dressed in linen who delineated certain events that were to occur during the Tribulation. Thereafter, Daniel asked how long it would be until the end of these events. The response lies in Daniel 12:7 which reads: “The man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, raised his right hand and his left hand toward heaven; and I heard him swear by him who lives for ever that it would be for a time, two times, and half a time; and that when the shattering of the power of the holy people comes to an end all these things would be accomplished.” The modern state of Israel became an autonomous nation on May 14, 1948, and the Jews have been returning to their homeland ever since.
Birth pangs – earthquakes have increased exponentially since 1970. What was once a large quake now is considered an average quake. (Mat 24)
Wars and rumors of wars – no other period in history has known the number or nature of wars as during the last 110 years. (Mat 24)
Teachings of certain Fathers of the Church that time would last for 6,000 years – Using the Bible, it has been established that Adam & Eve were on Earth about 6,000 years ago. Refer to the section on Era of Peace below and the hyperlink provided therein for additional information. [St. Irenaeus & Lactantius]
· The Revived Roman Empire - The book of Daniel predicts that the revived Roman Empire is to be in existence at the time of the Tribulation of the Antichrist (Daniel 2:33-34 & 2:41-44). In Daniel, the revived Roman Empire is represented by the image of the statue’s "feet of iron and clay" (a loose confederation). The Antichrist is to be a politician from the revived Roman Empire. Revelation 17 affirms that the Antichrist comes from this revived Roman Empire, as Rome is the city surrounded by seven hills. (Rev. 17:7-18). Further, Our Lady of LaSalette stated “Rome will loose the Faith and become the seat of the Antichrist.” The European Union is a loose confederation by anyone’s standards, and is believed by many to be that revived Roman Empire. Officially, it came into existence in 1992. [Refer to the teachings of St. Cyril of Jerusalem and St. Irenaeus, also.]
· As it was in the days of Noah & Lot – The Blessed Mother told us via a number of private prophets (e.g. Fr. Stefano Gobbi – IMPRIMATURS; yet-to-be-approved (B)) that the world today is worse than in the days of Noah. n.b. the rise in open homosexuality, human sacrifice via abortion promoted by the state, cloning, etc. Indeed, love has grown cold; and both daily business and governmental activities are filled with fraud, deceit, violations of trust and misrepresentation. (Luk 17 & Mat 24)
· The battle lines of the Middle East – The Arab nations together with Russia are unified in opposition against the modern state of Israel. (Eze 38) [Refer to #416]
· The Euphrates River is drying up - Due to a prolonged severe drought and Turkish and Syrian dams upstream and the related diversion of water, the Euphrates River is drying up as predicted to make way for the ‘kings of the East’ (Rev. 16) [Refer to #405]
· The new Health Care Law of the USA contemplates the use of the Mark of the Beast (which is the Subdermal Microchip). The satellite system is in place, and Microsoft developed the necessary software. The new Health Care Law requires that the system be operational by March, 2013. Smart cards may precede the use of the Chip. (Rev. 13)
· Terrorism is being used as a ruse to promote laws restricting and revoking freedom (n.b. US Patriot Acts I & II, the John Warner Act, the Military Commissions Act, etc.). Soon it will be used to promote, and later force, the implantation of the Mark of the Beast (the Subdermal Microchip) - (Isa 24 & Rev 13). [Refer to #415]
· The Gospel has been preached throughout the world – The Greek word for ‘world’ used in Matthew 24:14 refers to the then-known world of the Roman Empire. Romans 10:18 is clear: “But I ask, have they not heard? Indeed they have; for "Their voice has gone out to all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.” [Refer to “Has Matthew 24:14 been realized? Definitely, Yes” at the Call To Holiness site.].
· Persecution of Christianity is on the rise – No other religion is being attacked like that of Christianity. It will increase significantly very soon, and the Church will go out the same way that she came in: via the catacombs. (Dan 8, Joh 16, Luk 21, Mar 13 & Mat 24)
“And brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death...” (cf. Mar 13:12) The US Patriot Acts contain provisions in which anyone having knowledge of the location of ‘enemy combatants’ must turn them into authorities, or be imprisoned. The US President (a Muslim) is the one who unilaterally designates who are ‘enemy combatants’. Such law will call for priests to expose confidential disclosures obtained in the confessional. Recently, a former cabinet member of former US President Clinton stated in an article that “Christians are worse than terrorists.”. Additionally, certain Catholic teaching is being declared as ‘hate crimes’ in a growing number of places worldwide.
· Many will claim to be the returning Christ – There have been many persons claiming to be the returning Christ during the last several years; including as of this writing, a man in Florida, a man in Papua New Guinea, and a man who calls himself, Lord Maitreya (Discussed below). (Mat 24)
· Natural disasters have been increasing significantly in recent years. The insurance industry has reported record losses for many of the years since 1999. (Luk 21 & Mat 24) [Refer to #53,217,289,329,377 & 394]
· One-world government – to make the way for one-world government the Illuminati (a group of 13 wealthy elitist families who control international finance and all nations from the shadows) have broken the back of the former USSR economically, and are now doing the same to the remaining superpower, the USA. (Dan 7 & 11) [Refer to #387 & 386.]
· The Earth’s magnetic poles are in the process of reversing. Refer to discussion below.
Famines in diverse places – Shelves in grocery stores and food distribution centers will empty quickly as a result of the forthcoming global economic collapse. Additionally, our Lord advised us through John Leary (C), Louise Tomkiel (D) and Carol Ameche (E), that famine will result from (1) nuclear, biological and chemical fallout, (2) natural disasters and climatic changes, (3) the dispersion of diseases and contamination by way of chemtrails and tainted vaccines by evil men to cause panic, and (4) leaks from nuclear reactors resulting from earthquakes. The ability of people to treat themselves medically against the forthcoming plagues (many of which are, and will be man made) is being restricted. Vitamins and dietary supplements will soon be taken off of the shelves, and provided only with a medical subscription. Part of the plan of the Globalists and their New World Order is to decrease the world population significantly. Further, there is a disproportionate number of medical scientists and microbiologists that are dying mysteriously. Clearly, the purpose is to (1) decrease the world population significantly, (2) make the survivors fully-dependent upon those in control, and (3) force people to accept the Mark of the Beast (the subdermal microchip) to control them. The recipients of the chip can be tracked by the Global Positioning System. Our Lord told us that they can exert mind control electronically upon the recipients to comply with the New World Order, and to worship the Antichrist. [Refer to “Tribulation Protection: The Blood of the Lamb” at the Call To Holiness site, and to #283,302,357,358, 379,395,397,407.]
Many false prophets will arise and lead many astray – Through Fr. Stefano Gobbi, Our Lady stated that the Great Apostasy exists today, and will break out into the open soon. The words of Pope John Paul II indicate this, as well.
· Private prophecy (both approved by the Church and that yet-to-be approved by the Church as worthy of belief) confirms that the times have arrived.
"Then afterward I will pour out my spirit upon all mankind. Your sons and daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions; Even upon the servants and the handmaids, in those days, I will pour out my spirit." (cf. Joel 2:28-29)
"Extinguish not the spirit. Despise not prophecies. But prove all things; hold fast that which is good." (cf. 1Th. 5:19-21) (n.b. This is not a recommendation…….. but a directive!).
The Abomination of Desolation – This will occur soon, and will be one of the signs to flee to the refuges. It will occur at the beginning of the Tribulation. (Discussed below.)
And more.......
Now, what is the probability that all of these prophesized events have occurred simultaneously by chance? Answer: Extremely Remote!
In Mar 13 and Mat 24, Jesus delineated a number of signs that would precede His triumphant return (n.b. the listing above includes those delineated therein plus several others found elsewhere within Holy Scripture.) Thereafter, He stated: “Now of the fig tree learn ye a parable. When the branch thereof is now tender and the leaves are come forth, you know that summer is very near. So you also when you shall see these things come to pass, know ye that it is very nigh, even at the doors. Amen, I say to you that this generation shall not pass until all these things be done. Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my word shall not pass away.” (Cf. Mar 13:28-31 - DRV).
Please understand that this is NOT the end of the world. It is the end of the era of Satan. What follows is the Era of Peace.
Certain Heretical Beliefs About the End Times
The Jewish Temple of Jerusalem must be rebuilt prior to the second coming of Jesus. This is heretical, and is not taught by the Catholic Church. The ‘temple’ referred to in Daniel 9, Matthew 24 & 2 Thessalonians 2 is the Church. Refer to: “Must the Reconstruction of the Temple of Jerusalem Precede the Second Coming of Jesus Christ?” at the Call To Holiness site.
The Pre-Tribulational Rapture of the good people into Heaven prior to the Tribulation. This is heretical, and stems from a footnote (only) placed in the Protestant Darby Bible about 150 years ago. “This I declare, brothers: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God...” (cf. 1Co 15:50) For a detailed discussion, refer to “The Myth of the Pre-Tribulational Rapture” at the Call To Holiness site.
Millenarianism, which is the belief that Jesus will return to reign on Earth in the flesh for 1,000 years, has been condemned by the Church. Refer the discussion on the Era of Peace below.
The Era of Peace
"Then I saw an angel come down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the abyss and a heavy chain. He seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, which is the Devil or Satan, and tied it up for a thousand years and threw it into the abyss, which he locked over it and sealed, so that it could no longer lead the nations astray until the thousand years are completed. After this, it is to be released for a short time.
Then I saw thrones; those who sat on them were entrusted with judgment. I also saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshiped the beast or its image nor had accepted its mark on their foreheads or hands. They came to life and they reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were over. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over these; they will be priests of God and of Christ, and they will reign with him for (the) thousand years." (cf. Rev 20:1-6)
The Era of Peace will be established by Jesus when He comes in glory in His spirit. Jesus will not be present in the flesh, but will reign in our will and, in a most powerful way, by means of the Holy Eucharist. The duration of this kingdom cannot be interpreted as a literal 1,000 years (n.b. time will have been suspended at that point.). The doctrine of the Millennium - an "age to come", an "era" of peace or "some mighty triumph of Christianity before the end" - has been accepted as sound doctrine. Millenarianism, which is substantially different, has been condemned by the Church. (Rev 20:1-6; Rev 21; Isa 65:17-25; Dan 2:44).
Remember and understand that Our Heavenly Father has a plan for this world. Adam interfered with God’s plan, and He sent His Son to earth to make reparation. God’s plan will be realized – He will not be upstaged by man. “...and He who sat upon the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” (cf. Rev 21:5)
The preternatural gifts (immortality, immunity to pain and suffering & integrity) that were lost with Adam’s fall will be restored with the Era of Peace. (Rev 21:3-5, 27; Rev 20) Note also that the Era of Peace is an antitype of the Garden of Eden. As such it will be much greater than the Garden of Eden.
Time corresponds directly with the 7 days of creation. As mentioned above certain of the Fathers (St. Irenaeus & Lactantius) taught that as the world was created in six days, and on the seventh day God rested; similarly, the world as we know it will last six thousand years to be followed by the Era of Peace i.e. the "seven thousandth year". As the basis for this teaching, they cite Genesis, Catholic Tradition, Ps 90:4 and 2 Peter 3:8 which reads:
"But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." (cf. 2 Pet 3:8)
Using the dates and ages of people provided in the Bible it can be proven that Adam was created about 6,000 years ago. Consider that the first approximate 2,000 years up until Abraham represented man’s direct interaction with Our Heavenly Father. The next 2,000 years represented man’s awaiting the Messiah and man’s direct interaction with Jesus. The next 2,000 years represent man’s direct interaction with the Holy Spirit from Pentecost until the end of time (e.g. charisms).
The final period is the Era of Peace, which corresponds to the day of Sabbath or rest taken by the Father in creation.
Rejoice! For we will see the Era of Peace soon!

The Warning, Great Miracle & Chastisement
We have been living through the Era of Divine Mercy, as explained by Jesus to St. Faustina Kowalska. A time of extraordinary grace to bring man to conversion and repentance. Soon it will end, and His Divine Justice will begin.
Very soon each person alive will experience a phenomenon that has been predicted by a number of prophets (yet-to-be-approved), most notably by Our Lady of Garabandal, Spain to the four children visionaries: Jacinta Gonzalez, Mari Loli Mazon, Conchita Gonzalez and Mari Cruz Gonzalez. That phenomenon has been called the Warning or Illumination. It will be a phenomenon in which each person alive at that time will experience an interior vision of his entire life and the state of his soul along the way as God has seen it. At the end, we will see the current state of our soul at that time; and where in Heaven, Purgatory or Hell we would reside if we died at that moment. Some (i.e. those who are in the state of mortal sin at the time) may die of fright. THIS MAY BE GOD'S LAST ATTEMPT TO GET OUR ATTENTION BEFORE HE BEGINS TO CLEANSE THE WORLD OF EVIL. (n.b. This is NOT the end of the world -- say the "Glory Be" prayer slowly and note the words: “world without end”. It is the end of the era of time controlled by Satan.). The Warning will accompany the passing of a comet near Earth coming from behind the sun.
With respect to the predicted Warning, Jacinta, stated "The Warning is something that is first seen in the air everywhere in the world and immediately is transmitted into the interior of our souls. It will last for a very little time, but it will seem a very long time because of its effect within us. It will be for the good of our souls in order to see in ourselves our conscience; the good that we have failed to do, and the bad that we have done. Then we will feel a great love towards our Heavenly Parents and ask forgiveness for all our offenses. The Warning is for us to draw closer to Him and to increase our faith. Therefore, one should prepare for that day, but not await it with fear. God does not send things for the sake of fear but rather with justice and love. He does it for the good of all His children so they might enjoy eternal happiness, and not be lost. The Warning will come when conditions are worst."
Immediately upon experiencing the Warning each person MUST make a choice either for Jesus or for Satan -- there can be no alternative. It will require overt actions; simply sitting in a pew for 1 hour on Sunday won't cut it. Faith alone is insufficient.
“What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister has nothing to wear and has no food for the day, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well," but you do not give them the necessities of the body, what good is it? So also faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead. Indeed someone might say, "You have faith and I have works." Demonstrate your faith to me without works, and I will demonstrate my faith to you from my works. You believe that God is one. You do well. Even the demons believe that and tremble. Do you want proof, you ignoramus, that faith without works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar? You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by the works. Thus the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness," and he was called "the friend of God." See how a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. And in the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she welcomed the messengers and sent them out by a different route? For just as a body without a spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.” (cf. Jam 2:14-26)
"Teacher, what good must I do to gain eternal life?" He answered him, "Why do you ask me about the good? There is only One who is good. If you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments." He asked him, "Which ones?" And Jesus replied, "'You shall not kill; you shall not commit adultery; you shall not steal; you shall not bear false witness; honor your father and your mother'; and 'you shall love your neighbor as yourself.'" (cf. Mat.19:16-19)
“Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense, to repay every one for what he has done.” (cf. Rev 22:12)
It is important that immediately after the Warning, each of us write down everything that we experienced to reflect upon later. The prophecies are clear: For a short time people will repent, but thereafter return to their evil ways.
Shortly after the Warning, all hell will break loose. Literally all of the demons of hell will be loosed upon the Earth. Evil will be used to rid the world of evil.
Further, it was predicted that after the Warning a great miracle will occur at Garabandal. Mari-Loli stated, "The Miracle will take place within one year of the Warning.". It is to occur on a Thursday evening at 8:30 p.m. between the 8th and 16th of March, April or May. It is to coincide with an important event of the Church and on the feast day of a young martyr of the Eucharist. There will be conversions and healings.
Conchita: "The Blessed Virgin advised me of a great miracle, saying that God, Our Lord, would perform it through her intercession. Just as the chastisement will be very, very great, in keeping with the needs of the world. The Blessed Virgin has told me the date of the miracle and what it will consist of. I am supposed to announce it eight days in advance, so that people will come. The Pope will see it from wherever he is, and Padre Pio also [he is reliably reported to have already seen the miracle before he died in 1968].The sick who are present at the miracle will be cured and the sinners will be converted.
One will be able to see and photograph the Great Miracle, but not touch it. Shortly afterwards, Russia is to be converted. A permanent sign is to remain as a result of the Great Miracle. According to one of the visionaries, it will be like a pillar of smoke.
Our Lady told the visionaries that, if we do not heed her warnings and mankind does not change after the warning and miracle, God will send the chastisement.
Mari-Loli: "It would be worse than having fire on top of us --- fire underneath us and fire all around us. She saw people throwing themselves into the sea, but instead of putting the fire out it seemed to make them burn more."
Conchita: "The punishment is conditional upon whether or not mankind heeds the messages of the Blessed Virgin Mary. I cannot reveal what kind of punishment it is except that it will be a result of the direct intervention of God, which makes it more terrible and fearful than anything we can imagine.” [Refer to “Information on the Warning” at the Call To Holiness site and #310.]
Freemasonry and the New World Order
Freemasonry is a secret society, which some hold can trace its beginnings to the masons of ancient Babylon. Indeed, it is a religion complete with a creed, belief system, rituals, altars (places of worship), names for god, feast days, vestments, symbolism and more.
Freemasonry is based upon the false premise that God has not definitely revealed Himself. They believe in religious indifferentism and syncretism in that all religions (other than atheism) are acceptable, provided they swear blood covenantal oaths to the teachings of Freemasonry. Such blood covenantal oaths are incompatible with Christianity.
Masonry teaches that eternal life is available to those who practice virtue and good works. Hence, they believe that faith in Jesus Christ and Baptism are not required for salvation. Freemasonry, claims to have the truth. Only the Catholic Faith has the truth. Further, they profess belief in the ‘Grand Architect of the Universe’ rather than the Holy Trinity. Such Grand Architect is none other than Lucifer and the gods of ancient Egypt (which originated in ancient Babylon). The name ‘Lucifer’ means ‘light bearer’. They believe that while Jesus is the Light of the world, Lucifer is the light bearer – pure and virtuous; and thus stronger than Jesus. Further, they believe that Lucifer enlightened mankind; whereas God the Father is angry and repressive. It is worthy of emphasis that Luciferians of today dress like you and I; and are bankers, doctors, lawyers, politicians, plumbers, carpenters, teachers, priests, etc.
There are 33 degrees (levels) of both the York and Scottish Rites of Freemasonry. The lower degrees are social clubs, which is the method used to lure initiates into Masonry. As the Mason progresses to the higher degrees, Freemasonry becomes progressively demonic.
Masonry is comprised of a number of sub-groups throughout the world: the Illuminati, the Council on Foreign Relations, the Bilderbergs, the Club of Rome, the Trilateralist Commission, the Knights of Malta, Skull & Bones, the Alta Vendita, and more.
The Illuminati represent 13 elitist families, which have controlled international finance for centuries. From the shadows, they finance governments, and thus own them. They have sought to replace monarchies with republics, typically with a two-party system. They finance the campaigns of the leading Masonic candidates of both parties in elections ensuring that one of their members is elected.
They seek a one-world government centered (initially) under the United Nations, a one-world currency and a one-world New-Age religion (n.b. there is nothing new about the New Age religion. They worship the same demonic gods of ancient Babylon/Egypt.). In particular, they seek the destruction of the one true Apostolic and Catholic Church from both within and from outside the Church.
It is worthy of emphasis that the Catholic Church has condemned Freemasonry and issued an anathema to anyone joining the Masons. Any Catholic who joins the Masons is ex-communicated automatically from the Mystical Body of Christ, which is the Church.
The party line that the Masons use to describe the above mentioned plan for the world, is the “New World Order”.
To facilitate their New World Order, they had to eliminate the two existing Superpowers. They ran down the price of oil artificially, and escalated US defense spending and trading during the 1980s to bankrupt the USSR. Similarly, they have destroyed the US mortgaged-back securities market, and the debt market in general, escalated defense spending, engaged in an expensive and ill-defined ‘war on terror’, escalated welfare programs, nationalized healthcare, etc. to bankrupt the US.
Their plan calls for the elimination of billions of ‘useless eaters’, like you and I. This will be attempted in a number of ways. During the last several years, they closed certain military bases and government installations, and converted them into detention/death camps, which surpass anything that the Nazis or Japanese had during World War II. They have been spraying the skies with chemicals (chemtrails) to weaken the immune systems of people; and have, and will continue, to release deadly bacteria and viruses into the atmosphere (e.g. SARS, H1N1-Swine Flu Cocktail, etc). They have tainted, and will continue to taint, vaccines with deadly diseases. They have passed laws, that when enforced, will require doctors’ prescriptions for vitamins and supplements thereby making it difficult for people to treat themselves. They have nationalized healthcare putting them in control of our health care. There are bills before the US Congress calling for the outlawing of private vegetable gardens, thus requiring people to buy food from them. They have passed draconian laws, which have eliminated many other basic freedoms. Further, they are pushing genetically altered seeds, which do not reproduce. They have established an extensive surveillance system (including digital television that can be used to monitor people in their homes – now you know why the government agreed to subsidize conversion to digital television.), which has turned our environment into electronic concentration camps. These evil men will eliminate many people via nuclear, biological and chemical warfare. Such warfare will not only kill many people directly, but will poison our food and water supplies. And more.....
In short their plan calls for them to have complete control over the lives of all survivors. One of the premier mottos of Masonry, is ‘Order out of Chaos’. Once they have established an uncommon chaos and fear, they will require all to accept the Mark of the Beast (Rev. 13) in order to eat, drink, work, travel, obtain medical treatment, etc.
BUT........Our Heavenly Father has a plan !!! Remember that God always takes care of His people..........ALWAYS! We shall learn more about this plan later in this writing.
Additionally, it should be noted that Our Lady told us via Fr. Stefano Gobbi that the Beast Like a Leopard spoken of in Daniel 7 is Freemasonry. [Refer to #198] Further, she advised that the Beast Like a Lamb is Freemasonry infiltrated into the Church. Refer to the section on the Great Apostasy and the False Prophet below for discussions on Ecclesiastical Masonry.
Once world government has been established under the United Nations, the Antichrist will seize its control. [Refer to 22, 80, 302, 320, & 380.]
The Antichrist
The tyrant of the end times that rules the world, sets himself up as a "god" and persecutes the faithful Christians. The Antichrist is the first Beast of Revelation, the deceiver tyrant of Daniel 7,8,9 and 11, and the son of perdition of 2 Thessalonians 2.
The Antichrist is evil incarnate. He will mock Jesus, deny that Jesus is the Christ, and claim to be god. According to Our Lord’s messages via John Leary, the Antichrist is an Arab cleric (religious person) that is living in England at this time. He will go to Egypt to be anointed by the occult priests of the ancient Egyptian gods. The Antichrist will seize control of European Union and later the world government (3). Our Lady of LaSalette (approved by the Church as worthy of belief) told us that “Rome will lose the Faith and become the seat of the Antichrist.”. [Refer to “After the Warning” at the Call To Holiness site.].
Through John Leary, Jesus told us that not only is he living in England at this time, but that we have seen his public relations man. Many feel that this refers to Benjamin Crème who has been promoting the one who calls himself ‘Maitreya’. This Maitreya calls himself The World Teacher. Maitreya promotes religious pluralism, which is condemned by the Church. Essentially, religious pluralism holds that all religions worship the same god, only by different names. Hence, all religions can lead to Heaven. However, he adds a twist to it. That is, that we must all come together in a one-world New Age religion and worship him. Avoid this ‘Maitreya’! Do not look at his face or listen to his voice!
The Antichrist has extended powers from Hell. Through John Leary and Louise Tomkiel (yet-to-be approved) Jesus told us not to look at the image of the Antichrist, as he has demonic power to hypnotize us into worshipping him. Further, Jesus told us that after the Warning, it is imperative that we discard our televisions sets, computer monitors, stereos, radios and newspapers/magazines so that we do not see his image or hear his voice.
He will be duplicitous, and initially will appear as a man of peace. The Antichrist will preach to the masses in the large sports stadia that were constructed in recent years. During the 3 ½ years of the Tribulation, his true evil character will be revealed. He will be the worst tyrant the world has ever known, specifically persecuting Christians.
Through John Leary, Jesus advised that He will shorten time during the Tribulation by sending a huge earthquake (Mat 24:22). Such earthquake will knock the Earth off its axis, and cause it to spin faster (Isa 13 & Rev 6 & 11). As a result, there will be less than 24 hours in each day. [Refer to #406.]
He will force all to receive the Mark of the Beast (discussed below), in order to buy or sell. The Antichrist will persecute the Christians unlike ever before beheading many of them. [Refer to #385, 419 & 420 and Rev 20.]
The False Prophet
“Then I saw another beast which rose out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon. It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed. It works great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men; and by the signs which it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast, it deceives those who dwell on earth, bidding them make an image for the beast which was wounded by the sword and yet lived; and it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast so that the image of the beast should even speak, and to cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain." (cf. Rev. 13:11-15)
A few years ago, Our Lord stated the following to me: “If the First Beast is a man of duplicity, what can be expected of the Second Beast? Is not Satan a snake?” Clearly, the First Beast refers to the Antichrist, while the Second Beast refers to the False Prophet – both of whom are two-faced.
According to the prophecies via John Leary and Louise Tomkiel, the False Prophet (Anti-pope) will apostatize, and will attempt to lead the Church in the direction of the false one-world New Age religion. It is worthy of note that the doctrine of papal infallibility applies only when the true Pope teaches ex cathedra (emphasis added). That is when by virtue of his supreme Apostolic authority, he (a) teaches on faith and morals, and (b) teaches to the universal Church.
Historically, the Church has taught that as a Pope continues to have free will, he can teach heresy or apostatize. However, immediately upon doing so, he is ipso facto automatically deposed. Schismatics loose all jurisdiction, immediately. As such, he ceases immediately at such time to be the Pope. This is the teaching of the Fathers of the Church, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Robert Bellarmine and other doctors of the Church. Hence, his heretical teaching would fall outside of the doctrine of papal infallibility.
It is worthy of note that in defining Papal infallibility, the First Vatican Council attached the charism to office of the Papacy, not to the individual. The term ex cathedra, means ‘from the chair [of St. Peter]’. Hence, when such a Pope apostatizes, he immediately leaves the office of Pope, and the charism of Papal Infallibility remains with the ‘chair’ or office.
Some non-Catholics would hold that one should not follow the Catholic Church, as the False Prophet will arise from her ranks. This is nonsense! The Catholic Faith is sound regardless of the sins of the men who comprise the Church. If one who ate and drank with Jesus would betray Him, what can be expected of others? The fact that one of the Apostles committed a great sin, which lead to the immolation and death of Jesus, did not invalidate the teachings of Jesus. Similarly, the Catholic Faith will remain sound regardless of whether any such “pope” apostatizes. We reiterate that upon the apostasy of any “pope”, the Faithful are no longer required to obey his teachings after such act of apostasy.
Through John Leary and Louise Tomkiel, Our Lord advised that the successor to Pope John Paul II would be the Anti-pope. We shall see whether this prophecy will be realized or not during the pontificate of Pope Benedict XVI.
Refer to “Ecclesiastical Masonry: The Beast Like a Lamb”, “To Protect the Faith” and “The Original Prayer to St. Michael” at the Call To Holiness site and #307, 308 & 309.].
The Great Apostasy & Great Schism
"We ask you, brothers, with regard to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our assembling with him, not to be shaken out of your minds suddenly, or to be alarmed either by a "spirit," or by an oral statement, or by a letter allegedly from us to the effect that the day of the Lord is at hand. Let no one deceive you in any way. For unless the apostasy comes first and the lawless one is revealed, the one doomed to perdition, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god and object of worship, so as to seat himself in the temple of God, claiming that he is a god-- do you not recall that while I was still with you I told you these things? " (cf. 2Th 2:1-5)
Name another time in which man has become more "advanced" (degraded) than that of our time. With his technology and medical science, man has elevated himself to a "god". Matters are explained no longer as spiritual, but are explained in terms of science and nature. Cures for diseases are thought of no longer as gifts from God, but as the result of sufficiently-funded scientific research. Through contemporary prophets, Our Lord and Our Lady each stated that the world today is worse that in the days of Noah. Witness: abortions, homosexuality, illicit sex, deceit and violation of contracts, liberal theology, lack of personal responsibility, unprecedented weapons of mass destruction, divorce, murder, rape, DNA engineering, harvesting human organs from animals, medical experimentation which only 70 years ago were considered atrocities, cloning, theft, greed, genetically modifying nature, etc. No other time has known illicit sex broadcast into every home via television, making the family environment a cesspool. Man has made materialism his golden calf. Since Adam, man has always sinned, but today he laughs at sin, even boasts of it. Man has lost the sense of sin and made it a lifestyle.
As stated above, the Blessed Virgin told us via Fr. Gobbi that the Great Apostasy exists within the Church at this time, but has yet to break out into the open.
Shortly before he was elected Pope, Pope John Paul II stated: “We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel." (Notable & Quotable, Karol Cardinal Wojtyla (who became Pope John Paul II), Wall Street Journal, Nov. 9, 1978.).
In 1998, Pope John Paul II took steps to clarify the Church's position on obedience, and any teaching contrary to Catholic doctrine by issuing his Apostolic Letter Motu Proprio AD TUENDAM FIDEM. At the Call To Holiness site, the writing, “To Protect the Faith”, discusses the above mentioned Apostolic Letter Motu Proprio, and certain Holy Scripture, the Didache and private prophecy. Read how the above mentioned Apostolic Letter clarifies Canon Law prohibiting ANYONE one from reforming or changing any teaching of the Catholic Church or its Pontiff, and punishing these unfaithful with excommunication......THIS INCLUDES THE POPE.
Witness the Pontificate of Pope John Paul II. It's been said that it appeared to have been orchestrated by Heaven! His pontificate was a consistent preparation for, and struggle against, the Evil of the End Times. In the light of his recent repeated references to the book of Revelation, and his recent statements to certain cardinals and bishops to "examine the signs of the times", it appears as though he was making a momentous effort to protect the Faith, and gather his flock before the storm.
We have been told that Freemasonry has infiltrated the Church, and that during the Tribulation the following will come under attack: (a) the Catholic Church as the one true Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ, (b) the real presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist,
(c) the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass (in particular, the Holy Words of Consecration), (d) devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, (e) the power and efficacy of the Holy Rosary, (f) the primacy of the Papacy, (g) the Sacrament of Matrimony, (h) the priesthood, (i) the Sacrament of Reconciliation, (j) the Faith and morality in general, and more. They will form a one-world New Age religion, which will worship gods and goddesses of the Earth. There is nothing new about ‘New Age’. They worship the same pagan gods and goddesses of the ancient Egyptians and the ancient Babylonians before them.
John Paul II dedicated his pontificate to restraining the lawlessness of the Tribulation. As predicted in Second Thessalonians above and in certain private prophecy, now that he has died the Great Apostasy, which has been slithering into the Church, will become manifest openly; and the Great Schism will occur.
"The work of the devil will infiltrate even the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against other 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. The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will be no longer pardon for them. " (Our Lady of Akita, October 13, 1973; approved by the Church as worthy of belief.)
Led by the False Prophet, the Church will split into two, and only a remnant will remain faithful to the historical teachings of the Church. Read and heed the “Catechism of the Catholic Church”! Pope John Paul II had it compiled for these times. Remain faithful to the historical teachings of the Catholic Church!
[Refer to “To Protect the Faith”, “The Original Prayer to St. Michael” and “Ecclesiastical Masonry: the Beast Like a Lamb” at the Call To Holiness site.]
The Abomination of Desolation
"And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off, and shall have nothing; and the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war; desolations are decreed. And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week; and for half of the week he shall cause sacrifice and offering to cease; and upon the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator." (cf. Daniel 9:26-27) n.b. The Hebrew word used is shabuwa, which means a "week of years" or seven years.
"When you see standing in the holy place the abomination that causes desolation spoken of through the prophet Daniel -- let the reader understand -- then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains, a person on the housetop must not go down to get things out of his house, a person in the field must not return to get his cloak - for at that time there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will be. And if those days had not been shortened, no one would be saved; but for the sake of the elect they will be shortened.". (cf. Mat 24:15-22).
According to prophecies through Fr. Stefano Gobbi and John Leary, this refers to the forthcoming time when the holy words of consecration are changed in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, thereby preventing transubstantiation, and thus making the host desolate of Our Lord's presence. A sacrilege is defined as the abuse of a sacrament, and this will certainly be an abomination.
According to the prophecies, after the one-world people seize Rome, and run the Catholic Church out of Rome; they will turn the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass into a satanic ritual, even worshiping an image of the Beast on altars formerly used by the Catholic Church. [Refer to “The Abomination of Desolation” and “Tribulation Update” at the Call To Holiness site.]
Christian Persecution
"...for it pertains to the appointed time of the end...a king of bold countenance, one who understands riddles, shall arise. His power shall be great, and he shall cause fearful destruction, and shall succeed in what he does, and destroy mighty men and the people of the saints." (cf. Dan 8:19-24).
“They will put you out of the synagogues; indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. And they will do this because they have not known the Father, nor me. But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you of them.” (cf. Joh 16:2-4).
The persecutions of Christians during the Tribulation will be the greatest persecution of man since the beginning of time. As mentioned earlier, the US Patriot Acts require that citizens turn in ‘enemy combatants’ to the authorities, and the US President designates who are ‘enemy combatants’, unilaterally.
The detention camps exist. The Masons have designed their plan to control every aspect of our lives. Churches will loose their tax exempt status, and will be sacked. It will be illegal to convene in public in a Christian setting. The Church will return to the catacombs. The plan of the Masons is designed to control our lives completely. Those who refuse the Mark of the Beast, the Subdermal Microchip, will be taken by force to the death camps.
According to Leary and Tomkiel during the End Times, God’s Faithful will bear the images of a crosses on their foreheads. The Faithful will see the crosses on each other’s foreheads; while evil people will not see them, nor have such a cross on their foreheads. Priests and visionaries will have a triangle or a ring [Refer to #392; Rev 7 & 9.].
As mentioned earlier, God has a plan to protect His people. We shall discuss this plan in greater detail below. [Refer to #264, 267, 274, 301, 331, 375, 381, 390, 392, 401, 403 & 410.]
The Mark of the Beast
During the last 25 years, private prophecy has been very specific: The black beast as a leopard is Freemasonry. We have also been told that it is Freemasonry, which is behind the New World Order; and their plan is to control the world. Several have tried, and all have failed; but none have tried it the way that we have been told that the Masons are attempting to do it.
The premiere motto of Freemasonry is: 'Order Out Of Chaos'. Simply stated, they intend to throw the complete world into a state of fear, panic and chaos. Once they have succeeded in achieving worldwide chaos, they intend to solve it their way --- with them in complete control.
To create such chaos Heaven told us, and we are now seeing, that they will use (a) nuclear, biological, chemical and conventional attacks upon man, animals, crops, and water supplies from both terrorists and from warring nations; (b) manipulation of all financial and commodity markets, including energy, transportation and utilities; (c) manipulation of the food supply; and (d) manipulation of the weather (e.g. HAARP). Further, they will control the availability of all health care, food, supplies and water. Once an uncommon and pervasive fear has been established, they will force acceptance of the Mark of the Beast (Rev 13) into the hand or forehead of many survivors in order to buy or sell ---- but not all survivors.
The Mark of the Beast is the Subdermal Microchip placed in the hand or forehead. Those who accept the Chip will be monitored via the Global Positioning Satellite System. Through John Leary and Louise Tomkiel, Our Lord warned that the Chip will enable evil men to transmit messages from their cell towers to the Chips, which will emit electronic charges into the central nervous system allowing them to control the minds of the recipients to worship the Antichrist.
Consider the 24th chapter of Isaiah, which reads: "Lo, the LORD empties the land and lays it waste; he turns it upside down, scattering its inhabitants: Layman and priest alike, servant and master, The maid as her mistress, the buyer as the seller, The lender as the borrower, the creditor as the debtor. The earth is utterly laid waste, utterly stripped, for the LORD has decreed this thing. The earth mourns and fades, the world languishes and fades; both heaven and earth languish. The earth is polluted because of its inhabitants, who have transgressed laws, violated statutes, broken the ancient covenant. Therefore a curse devours the earth, and its inhabitants pay for their guilt; Therefore they who dwell on earth turn pale, and few men are left. The wine mourns, the vine languishes, all the merry-hearted groan. Stilled are the cheerful timbrels, ended the shouts of the jubilant, stilled is the cheerful harp. They cannot sing and drink wine; strong drink is bitter to those who partake of it. Broken down is the city of chaos, shut against entry, every house. In the streets they cry out for lack of wine; all joy has disappeared and cheer has left the land. In the city nothing remains but ruin; its gates are battered and desolate. Thus it is within the land, and among the peoples, As with an olive tree after it is beaten, as with a gleaning when the vintage is done. These lift up their voice in acclaim; from the sea they proclaim the majesty of the LORD: "For this, in the coastlands, give glory to the LORD! In the coastlands of the sea, to the name of the LORD, the God of Israel!" From the end of the earth we hear songs: "Splendor to the Just One!" But I said, "I am wasted, wasted away. Woe is me! The traitors betray: with treachery have the traitors betrayed! Terror, pit, and trap are upon you, inhabitant of the earth; He who flees at the sound of terror will fall into the pit; He who climbs out of the pit will be caught in the trap. For the windows on high will be opened and the foundations of the earth will shake. The earth will burst asunder, the earth will be shaken apart, the earth will be convulsed. The earth will reel like a drunkard, and it will sway like a hut; Its rebellion will weigh it down, until it falls, never to rise again." (cf. Isa 24:1-20)
A Sin that Will Not Be Forgiven
"And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice, "If any one worships the beast and its image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, he also shall drink the wine of God's wrath, poured unmixed into the cup of his anger, and he shall be tormented with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb. And the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name." (cf. Rev 14:9-11)
As we see from the citation above, anyone who willingly accepts the subdermal microchip placed in their body will go to Hell irrevocably upon his death. Willful acceptance of the Mark of the Beast constitutes a sin that will NOT be forgiven.
Modern Articles and Devices Containing the Chip
The following is a brief list of modern devices that contain a microchip that can be tracked by the agents of the New World Order. This list is not comprehensive:
Late model automobiles (those manufactured after 1984 have computers), cellular telephones, electronic pagers, national smart identification cards, smart driver's licenses, smart credit cards, smart passports & visas, personal digital assistants (pda's), satellite dishes, Fastrak & EZ Passes and other toll booth cards for tollways, automobile license plates, shoppers cards, gas station cards, student identification cards, passes for the work place, GPS positioning and locating devices, Onstar and LoJac automobile location systems, watches and bracelets with the chip, radio frequency identification tags (also known as RFID’s) in consumer goods including food and clothing, microwave ovens, late model appliances and electronics, and of course --- the Mark of the Beast, the subdermal microchip in the hand or forehead.
Modern Devices Monitored
The following is a brief list of modern devices in which we are monitored by the agents of the New World Order. This list is not comprehensive:
Telephones; cellular telephones; electronic mail (e-mail); the Internet/computers; high definition television; fax machines and cable television.
One can now see how the Masons have manipulated events, and are continuing to manipulate events, to further their evil agenda (e.g. false flag events such as the attack upon the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, the blowout of BP’s Macondo well off of the coast of Louisiana, USA, etc. Since September 11, 2001, they have been clamoring about the threat of ‘terrorism’, and taking away our freedoms. In April of 2010, US President Obama convened a Nuclear Security Summit of many nations in which they signed a document stating that the threat of nuclear terrorism is one of the greatest threats to global security, and agreed to defend against it collectively. Reflect upon this and reread Isa 24, 1Th 5 and #36, 135, 381, 401, 414 & 415.
DO NOT ACCEPT THE CHIP UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES !
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Revelation 6 speaks of the four horsemen of the Apocalypse. The rider with a bow on the white horse is the Masonic Council on Foreign Relations (whose logo is a rider on a white horse with bow and arrow drawn). The CFR ‘rides’ throughout the world conquering by stealth. They topple governments, and install republics with two political parties. Subsequently, they finance the campaigns of leading Masonic candidates in both parties ensuring CFR victories. Once their men are elected, they control the strings of the puppets. The rider of the black horse holding a scale represents a general bankruptcy. As of this writing, the international banking system of fiat money and fractional reserve lending is bankrupt. A bankruptcy, which was orchestrated. The rider on the red horse represents war. As of this writing, the nations are poised for World War III, unlike ever before. The rider on the pale green horse represents pestilence and plagues. Using high altitude jet aircraft, the Masons have been spraying municipalities with chemicals (chemtrails) to weaken our immune systems. It is a fact that SARS and the H1N1 flu cocktail were developed in test tubes. Additionally, their plan calls for the tainting of vaccines to inject live bacteria and viruses into people. This occurred in March of 2009. Also, Our Lord stated that ancient bacteria and viruses are being released into the atmosphere as glaciers melt. Further through Louise Tomkiel, He predicted that radiation would escape from nuclear power plants due to forthcoming earthquakes. [Refer to #276, 283, 358, 368, 387, 386, 380, 400 & 407].
It is worthy of note that the plagues of Revelation are antitypes of the plagues of Exodus. As such, they will be much worse. [Refer to “Tribulation Protection: the Blood of the Lamb” and “To the Refuges on Wings of Eagles” at the Call To Holiness site and to #384 & 390.]
Sky Signs
Within the last few years, there have been many predictions of signs in the sky alerting us to events of the End Times made by Jesus and Our Lady through various alleged mystics: the visionaries of Garabandal and Medjugorje, Father Stefano Gobbi, John Leary, Carol Ameche and Louise Tomkiel, to name a few (each of these continue to be under investigation by the Church). Our Lady stated that some signs will be explicable by scientists, while others will be inexplicable. In some cases, a number of unusual phenomena have occurred subsequent to the predictions.
Soon the messages from Heaven will cease. God will continue to let us know that He is watching over us by providing signs in the sky. [Refer to #313.]
Through St. Luke, Our Lord spoke to us about signs in the sky during the Tribulation. He said:
"There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roar of the sea and the waves. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand…Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise like a trap. For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man." (Luk 21) Refer to “Sky Signs” at the Call To Holiness site.
Earth’s Poles & Glaciers
The Day of the Lord, which appears in Holy Scripture in many places, represents the climactic release of Our Heavenly Father's terrible wrath upon an unrepentant world shortly before the return of His Son in glory. It will be a time unprecedented in the history of mankind, in which the anger of God will be manifest in his nature, and the forces of evil will receive their due.
The Day of the Lord is not to be interpreted literally as a single twenty-four hour day, but rather an extended period of time. We see evidence of this in 2 Peter 3:8 where we are told that "with the Lord one day is as a thousand years".
The manner in which God manifests His wrath upon the earth is unknown precisely, but insight is provided throughout Scripture and certain private prophecy. We are told that the stars will fall from the sky, the sun will not give its light, the mountains will be laid low and swallowed up, the seasons will be altered, the earth will be shaken from its place, the seas will roar with huge waves, storms will rage, earthquakes will be plentiful, famine and disease will be widespread, etc. Simply stated, the earth will be in the state of turmoil.
The geologic record indicates the earth's magnetic poles have reversed many times during its existence. That is to say, that with the next polar reversal, compasses will point South instead of North. Further, evidence indicates that during the reversal process nature becomes chaotic. Specifically, the earth's core becomes unstable causing: significant movement of the tectonic plates resulting in massive earthquakes, increased volcanic activity, disruption in the earth's climatic conditions, increased tidal activity, disruption of the seasons and production of food, and increased solar radiation being absorbed throughout the globe (which reminds one of Rev 16:8-9).
Scientific evidence indicates that the earth is in the process of such a polar reversal currently. The current polar reversal began with a steady decrease of the earth's magnetic field about 150 years ago, or about the time that Our Lady appeared at LaSalette. You will recall that her message contained warnings about the earth being struck with calamities of all kinds, the seasons being altered and more. Coincidence? [Refer to the message of Our Lady of LaSalette contained in “After The Warning” at the Call To Holiness site. Also see #295, 349, 357, & 368]
The Three Days of Darkness
There have been many prophecies about the three days of darkness over the centuries. We have been told that only blessed candles will give light during such time, and that those present should not look out their windows. God will be punishing the evil at such time, and those who look out will die.
According to the prophecies of John Leary, the three days of darkness will be caused by the return of the comet of the Warning. It will strike the earth in the Atlantic Ocean when the armies are gathered at Armageddon. [Refer to Dan 2, Rev 16 & 18.]
The three days of darkness should be of no concern to those who respond to the call of their guardian angels to flee, as we will be at the refuges at such time. This is discussed in greater detail below. [Refer to #284 & 315.]
Remedy: Prayers of Consecration and the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
In Holy Scripture, the term: ‘Israel’ refers to ‘the people of God’. With the immolation and death of Jesus on the cross, the presence of God was transferred from the synagogue to the Church (witness the tearing of the curtain of the Holy of Holies as Jesus expired on the cross). As a result, the Church became the New Israel (Gal 4 & 6; Luk 1:16) [Refer to #396].
Jesus is King of kings and Lord of lords [1TI 6, Rev 17 & 19]. Further, Jesus was born in the line of King David (Luk 1). In the Davidic kingdoms, the kings had several wives. The one who sat at his right hand was the king’s mother, the Queen Mother. Her purpose was to serve as the advocate and intercessor of the people of Israel to her son. This is chiefly because sons have difficulty turning down the requests of their mothers (Joh 2)
"…Then Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah, and the king stood up to meet her and paid her homage. Then he sat down upon his throne, and a throne was provided for the king's mother, who sat at his right. "There is one small favor I would ask of you," she said. "Do not refuse me." "Ask it, my mother," the king said to her, "for I will not refuse you…". (cf. IKi 2:19-20)
As Jesus is King of kings and we are the New Israel, the Blessed Virgin Mary is the Queen Mother of the New Israel.
The Blessed Mother of God (Joh 1) is the fairest daughter of the Father, the Mother of the Son and the Spouse of the Holy Spirit. She has a relationship with the Holy Trinity unlike any other creature. Her role as Advocate for the children of God is unlike any other creature’s as well (n.b. she is a creature, as human as you or I – but a very special creature due to her relationship with the Holy Trinity.). Our prayer to the Blessed Mother is “pray for us”.
In the New Testament, with the announcement of the new and eternal King and Kingdom of God (cf. Lk. 1:32-33), so too humanity receives a new Queen Mother, as principal advocate for the people of God in presenting their needs to Jesus Christ, the King of kings. Her advocacy is manifest clearly at Cana, interceding on behalf of those without physical wine, but ultimately for the spiritual and Eucharistic wine of her Son (Joh 2:1-10). At Calvary, the Crucified King presents his Mother and Queen to the world as gift to all in his Kingdom (Joh 19:27). And in Revelation, the new Queen Mother in the universal and everlasting Kingdom of Christ is crowned with twelve stars (Rev. 12:1), as she, in battle array, continues her life and death advocacy for humanity against the spiritual warring of the Dragon-Adversary.
"Then God's temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, voices, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail. And a great portent appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; she was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for delivery. And another portent appeared in heaven; behold, a great red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems upon his heads. His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child, that he might devour her child when she brought it forth; she brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days." (cf. Rev. 11:19-12:6)
"And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman who brought forth the man child. And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert, unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his mouth, after the woman, water, as it were a river: that he might cause her to be carried away by the river. And the earth helped the woman: and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.". (cf. Rev. 12:13-16)
(n.b. the Greek word eremos (which means 'wilderness' or 'desert') was used in both instances above, but the translator chose to use 'wilderness' in one place and 'desert' in another.
It is a fact that the authors of the books of the Bible did not break their writings into chapters. This is a convention added by the Church centuries later to aid in reference. Hence, we can gain greater insight as to the meaning of the word 'woman' by taking this into consideration in reading the last verse of Rev 11 together with Rev 12.
The Blessed Virgin Mary is the 'New Ark of the Covenant'. While the Old Testament ark of the covenant carried the written word of God; for nine months, the Blessed Virgin carried the Incarnate Word (Joh 1:1-14).
The Old Testament ark of the covenant remains on earth hidden in a cave (2Ma 2:5). It can not possibly be in Heaven. Whereas, the New Ark of the Covenant was assumed body and soul into Heaven (a singular privilege – God would not allow the womb that carried His flesh to become food for worms.). Therefore, the Ark of the Covenant that St. John saw in Heaven had to be the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God.
Furthermore, the Mother of God has appeared on earth subsequently with a crown of stars, and clothed with the sun and with the moon at her feet (e.g. Our Lady of Guadalupe).
We have additional assurance that the above passage refers to the Blessed Virgin in that it states "she brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne". Psalm 2:9 confirms that the phrase, "rules with a rod of iron", refers to Jesus. Additional confirmation is provided in the verbiage, "but her child was caught up to God and to his throne". This can be no other than Jesus, the Son of God.
Lastly, note that the woman wears a crown. Which type of women wear crowns? Queens and Queen Mothers.
As discussed above, the Tribulation is to last 3 ½ years. 'Time, times and a half', and '1260 days' relate to such 3 1/2 years.
Your attention is directed to the sentence: “And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert [wilderness], unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.” Gen 3:15 reads: “I will put enmities between thee and the woman, and thy seed and her seed: she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel.” [DRV & Latin Vulgate]. At Fatima, in speaking of the End Times Our Lady stated: “...But in the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph...” To Fr. Gobbi she stated: “…For this, I invite all to consecrate themselves to my Immaculate Heart, and I am extending this, my request, to the most extreme limits of the earth through my Marian Movement of Priests. In this way, I am offering you a safe refuge, which the Most Holy Trinity has prepared for you, for these stormy times of the great tribulation and of the painful trial which has come for the Church and for all humanity.…"
This is how she wages battle with the Red Dragon. This is how she crushes the head of the serpent. This is how the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart will be realized. Satan's ploy is to draw the whole world into wholesale rejection of God's Holy Will.
To be sure, Jesus defeated evil through His Passion and Death on the cross, but He reserved the final crushing blow for His Mother (You will recall that at the Annunciation, the Blessed Virgin was well aware that the Messiah was to die a horrible death. With her fiat, she agreed to sacrifice her Son in a horrible death for the salvation of mankind. At Calvary, she suffered a crucifixion of the heart as she watched her Son suffer a horrible death to which she had agreed. – Luk 2). It was the Holy Trinity who created Lucifer, and they could have destroyed him with just a thought. But they had a different plan. Our Heavenly Father chose a meek and humble obedient virgin to crush the head of the powerful, prideful and disobedient Satan. We have been told repeatedly that when Satan springs his plan to seize the whole world in his grasp via his Antichrist and False Prophet of Revelation, Our Lady will rescue those consecrated to her Immaculate Heart and guide them to safe refuges.
Accordingly, we ask the you join us in making the consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary:
An Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
I, (your name), a faithless sinner-- renew and ratify today in thy hands, O Immaculate Mother, the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomps and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.
In the presence of all the heavenly court I choose thee this day, for my Mother and Mistress. I deliver and consecrate to thee, as thy slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to thee the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to thy good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity. Amen.
[Refer to “Prayers of Consecration and the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary” at the Call To Holiness site.]
Remedy: Refuges
"When you see the desolating abomination spoken of through Daniel the prophet standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then those in Judea must flee to the mountains, a person on the housetop must not go down to get things out of his house, a person in the field must not return to get his cloak. Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days. Pray that your flight not be in winter or on the sabbath, for at that time there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will be. And if those days had not been shortened, no one would be saved; but for the sake of the elect they will be shortened." (cf. Mat 24:15-22) (Also, see Mar 13:14-19)
St. Luke recorded the above mentioned discussion of Our Lord differently: "Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it." . (cf. Luk 21:21) .
The refuges discussed in the previous section exist. I am a member of a group that was called by Our Lord to build such a refuge. Indeed, it is located in the countryside; and has a natural spring on it, which we were told would have healing properties (as at Lourdes, France).
Jesus told us through John Leary and Louise Tomkiel that we should call upon His Name when we see (1) a world famine; (2)schism (division) in the Catholic Church; (3) mandatory subdermal micro computer chips in the body; (4) mandatory vaccines for a pandemic virus; and (5) martial law. Also, we should call upon Jesus’ Name: (6) upon the failure of the economy of the USA & its bankruptcy; (7) when the North American Union (merging of Canada, USA & Mexico) takes place; (8) when the Antichrist declares himself; (9)when people start dying in large numbers from pandemic disease; (10) when riots for food begin; (11) when we see men in black trying to take captives in the USA; (13) upon religious persecution; (14) when they threaten to kill Christians; and (15) at the beginning of the Tribulation. At such time, our guardian angels will lead us to the nearest refuge. It is IMPERATIVE that we leave IMMEDIATELY upon being called by our guardian angel. Those who fail to leave immediately, will be captured by evil men, taken to the death camps and martyred. We should be ready to leave when the economy crashes. Further, He told us to have our bicycles and backpacks packed and ready to go with some warm clothing, food, supplies, etc. [Refer to “To the Refuges on Wings of Eagles” at the Call To Holiness site and to “Home Protection – Food and Water Purification” below.].
Through John Leary, Jesus asked us to prepare His priests for the forthcoming Tribulation by preparing them to flee to the refuges. He told us to be prepared to help guide the priests with His help via prayer when He warns us that it is time to flee.
Food, water, supplies, clothing and shelter will be provided miraculously when those consecrated to the Immaculate Heart are called later by their guardian angels into hiding at the refuges at the time of the persecution of Christians during the Tribulation.
Further, we will be invisible to evil men once we are underway traveling to the refuges and while residing there. (Acts 12)
[Refer to “To the Refuges on Wings of Eagles” at the Call To Holiness site and to #390 & 402.]
Remedies: Home Protection – Food & Water Purification
Our Lord has been preparing us for the Tribulation for many years. In the LINKS section of the Yahoo-Era of Peace site under the subdirectory entitled: “Home Protection – Food & Water Purification” we have accumulated such messages relating to physical preparations.
There you will find messages in which He told us how to purify food and water; to take Hawthorn supplements to boost our immune systems; to prepare back packs with some warm clothing, supplies and food to take with us as we leave for the refuges, to have bicycles in working order to ride to the refuges, and much more. He told us to set aside some extra food, water, fuel and supplies for Him to multiply during the Tribulation (1Ki 17, Joh 6).
Jesus told us to bless our homes in specific manner with blessed salt, holy water (blessed by a Catholic priest), and blessed crucifixes & medals. These are the blood of the Lamb that will protect us during the Tribulation. They will not only protect us from the plagues of revelation, but will make our homes invisible to evil men who will be seeking us. Refer to “Tribulation Protection: The Blood of the Lamb” at the Call To Holiness site for the detailed messages of Jesus.
Please proceed to the LINKS section to read the messages in their entirety.
THE DAYS OF ELIJAH ARE HERE! [Refer to #384 & 390.]
Remedies – Other
Remember that the purpose of prophecy is not to predict the future, but to explain the will of God for the present, and therefore show the right path to take for the future.
· Unconditional trust in His Divine Providence – He will provide! Trust is one of the highest forms of love. God wants to be loved. It is impossible for Him to disregard a trusting soul. Jesus told St. Faustina that the more that a person trusts, the more they receive.
· The Sacraments – Receive the sacraments as often as you can. When in the state of mortal sin, you MUST make a sacramental confession in order to receive Holy Communion. [Catechism of the Catholic Church paragraph 1385]
· Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Great graces are received in this manner. When praying the rosary in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, the Immaculate and Sacred Hearts are united in a special way. Great strength and peace are obtained in this manner
· Holy Water and Sacramentals. Use holy water and blessed salt frequently to bless your house, car, children, pets, etc. Blessed sacramentals are useful in warding off Satan. He hates them. The image of the Sacred Heart around your neck, and in your house provide very special graces. Use and wear the St. Benedict crucifix and the Brown Scapular. "O stupid Galatians! Who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified? (cf. Gal 3:1)
· The Rosary. The Rosary is extremely powerful. Praying it has stopped the forces of nature, and wars. During the 1980’s the bishops of the Philippines asked their parishioners to pray the rosary to defeat the onerous Marcos regime. Shortly thereafter, the Marcos regime imploded, and he was run out of the country. During World War II, Fr. Schiffer and his brother priests lived in Hiroshima only 8 blocks from ground zero – the spot where the atomic bomb was dropped. They escaped the powerful force of the blast, the deadly gamma radiation and the intense heat of over 15,000 degrees Fahrenheit unharmed! Later when interviewed, Fr. Schiffer stated that they remained unharmed, because they lived the message of Our Lady of Fatima and prayed the rosary daily.
Pray the rosary daily. Buy an audio tape of it being said, and pray with it as you commute to work each day. Our Lady said that each bead of the Rosary said is a tear of joy in heaven. She also said that when you pray the Rosary, you can multiply its impact by (1) asking all of the angels and saints to join with you in reciting it, and (2) uniting it with all of the Masses, rosaries and prayers said on that day. [Refer to ‘Thank You For Having Respond To My Call’ at the Call To Holiness Site and to #278 & 343.].
The power of prayer is incomprehensible, and can change prophesized events. Consider the following: “In those days, when Hezekiah was mortally ill, the prophet Isaiah, son of Amoz, came and said to him: "Thus says the LORD: 'Put your house in order, for you are about to die; you shall not recover.'" He turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD: "O LORD, remember how faithfully and wholeheartedly I conducted myself in your presence, doing what was pleasing to you!" And Hezekiah wept bitterly. Before Isaiah had left the central courtyard, the word of the LORD came to him: "Go back and tell Hezekiah, the leader of my people: 'Thus says the LORD, the God of your forefather David: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears. I will heal you. In three days you shall go up to the LORD'S temple; I will add fifteen years to your life. I will rescue you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria; I will be a shield to this city for my own sake, and for the sake of my servant David.'" (cf. 2Ki 20:1-6)
· The Angels and Saints. Call upon the angels and saints for assistance in times of need. Saint Joseph, the Protector, has been declared the saint of these times, and has been given special power [Refer to #226.]. Call upon the Archangels: St. Michael for protection, St. Gabriel for strength, and St. Raphael for healing [Refer to ‘Heaven and Earth Are Uniting’ at the Call To Holiness Site.]. Pray to your guardian angels daily.
· The Devotion to the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ – a very powerful devotion that is particularly efficacious during the Tribulation. [Refer to #336,337 & 340]
· The Chaplet of Divine Mercy. [Refer to #44.]
· Indulgences. Through her power granted by Jesus Christ, the Church has granted certain indulgences for acts of piety and devotion, etc. that remove temporal punishment due to our sins. Remember that at end of the Warning we will see where we would have resided in either Heaven, Purgatory or Hell if we died then. Use indulgences to make your after life and Warning experience more pleasant experiences. A list of partial and plenary indulgences is available in the LINKS section of the Yahoo Era of Peace site under the subdirectory entitled: “Prayers and Prayer Petitions Online”. (Act 26).
”He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High, who abides in the shadow of the Almighty, will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence; he will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you. You will only look with your eyes and see the recompense of the wicked. Because you have made the LORD your refuge, the Most High your habitation, no evil shall befall you, no scourge come near your tent. For he will give his angels charge of you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the adder, the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot. Because he cleaves to me in love, I will deliver him; I will protect him, because he knows my name. When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will rescue him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, and show him my salvation.” (Psa 91)
Jesus said: “Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." (Cf. Luk 21:28)
Rejoice! We win! Jesus is returning soon!
Marana tha!
May Almighty God bless and protect you and your family.

NOTE: We respectfully recognize and accept the final authority regarding apparitions, locutions and prophecies presently being reported around the world rests with the Holy See of Rome and the Magisterium of Holy Mother Church to whose judgment we humbly and obediently submit.
The web site, era-of-peace, together with its mother web site, www.call2holiness.org
have been designed to serve a very unique purpose. As discussed in greater detail on the home page of era-of-peace, it is used in conjunction with its mother site to assist and guide all of God's children through the Tribulation of the book of Revelation.
Accordingly, primary emphasis has been given to the accumulation of few archived messages at the era-of-peace web site, as opposed to many individual emailed messages to members. Our intention is to build a relatively small base of messages, to facilitate the painting of the "big" picture as eschatology is realized daily. As new members join, especially during the foretold confusion associated with the Warning, they will see for themselves the foretold events materializing together with supporting evidence.
We invite you to visit the collection of archived messages, databases, files and links to view the picture that is being developed. The databases, archived messages, files and

The Abomination of Desolation
Daniel
"And after the sixty-two weeks, an anointed one shall be cut off, and shall have nothing; and the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. Its end shall come with a flood, and to the end there shall be war; desolations are decreed. And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week; and for half of the week he shall cause sacrifice and offering to cease; and upon the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator."(cf. Daniel 9:26-27) n.b. The Hebrew word used is shabuwa, which means a "week of years" or seven years.
"Forces from him [Antichrist] will arise, desecrate the sanctuary fortress, and do away with the regular sacrifice. And they will set up the abomination of desolation." (cf. Daniel 11:31)
"Go, Daniel," he said, "because the words are to be kept secret and sealed until the end time. Many shall be refined, purified, and tested, but the wicked shall prove wicked; none of them shall have understanding, but the wise shall have it. From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the horrible abomination is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is the man who has patience and perseveres until the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days." (cf. Daniel 12:9-12).
Matthew
"When you see standing in the holy place the abomination that causes desolation spoken of through the prophet Daniel -- let the reader understand -- then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains (1), a person on the housetop must not go down to get things out of his house, a person in the field must not return to get his cloak - for at that time there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will be. And if those days had not been shortened, no one would be saved; but for the sake of the elect they will be shortened.". (cf. Matthew 24:15).
Comment:
According to prophecies through Fr. Gobbi and John Leary (refer to excerpts below), this refers to the forthcoming time when the Holy words of consecration are changed in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, thereby preventing transubstantiation and thus making the host desolate of Our Lord's presence. A sacrilege is defined as the abuse of a sacrament, and this will certainly be an abomination.
According to the prophecies, after the one-world people seize Rome and run the Pope and the Roman Catholic Church out of Rome, they will turn the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass into a satanic ritual, even worshiping an image of the Beast on altars formerly used by the Roman Catholic Church. .
.
Pope Leo XIII
The following is an excerpt of Pope Leo XIII's Original Prayer to St. Michael (2) :
"…This wicked dragon pours out, as a most impure flood, the venom of his malice on men of depraved mind and corrupt heart, the spirit of lying, of impiety, of blasphemy, and the pestilent breath of impurity, and of every vice and iniquity..These most crafty enemies have filled and inebriated with gall and bitterness the Church, the spouse of the immaculate Lamb, and have laid impious hands on her most sacred possessions. 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…"
Our Lady of All Nations - Approved by the Church
"Warn the clergy of false doctrines, particularly concerning the Eucharist." (#55 May 31, 1958)

Fr. Stefano Gobbi - Imprimaturs
Fr. Gobbi received messages via inner locution from Our Lady from 1973 - 1997 (25 years) (3) . His messages carry Imprimaturs from 3 Cardinals, several Archbishops, and several Bishops of the Roman Catholic Church. The three Cardinals in question are: the late Cardinal Echeverria of Ecuador, Cardinal Vidal of the Philippines and Cardinal Mikai of Thailand.
.Although the Imprimatur is not a declaration of authenticity of the mystical events, it does assure the reader that the messages are free from doctrinal error - i.e. they do not contain anything, which is contrary to the Catholic faith or morals.
Collectively, the messages clearly speak of the rise of Antichrist very soon, and Jesus to return soon thereafter to set up His Kingdom in the Era of Peace on Earth (i.e. the new heavens and the new earth). This will be the first resurrection (Rev. 20:4-5 Thy kingdom come on Earth, as it is in Heaven.). He will return in spirit and reign during the Era of Peace in the Holy Eucharist. The Era of Peace will not last 1,000 years, as time will then have been suspended. After the end of the Era of Peace will come the second resurrection of all humans, and Jesus will return a 3rd time for the Final Judgement.
The following are excerpts of a few of Our Lady's messages through Fr. Gobbi, in which she deciphers certain passages of the books of Daniel and Revelation.
#141 - You Too Beget My Son - December 24, 1977
"And thus indifference towards the sacrament of the Eucharist spreads, adoration and prayer are snuffed out, and the sacrileges of those who approach it in a state of mortal sin increase day by .. day.(4)
Alas, even among priests the number of those who celebrate the Eucharist without any longer believing in it is increasing. Some of these deny the real presence of my Son Jesus; others would restrict it to the time of the celebration of Holy Mass; and still others reduce it to a presence that is merely spiritual and symbolic.
These errors continue to spread despite the fact that the doctrine has been clearly reaffirmed by the Magisterium, especially the Pope.
The time will come when unfortunately, this error will have even more supporters; and in the Church, the perfume of adoration and of the holy Sacrifice will be, as it were, extinguished..And thus the abomination of desolation which has already made its way into the holy temple of God, will reach its culmination." (5)
#362 - Why Am I Still Weeping? - delivered at Akita, Japan September 15, 1987
"I am weeping because the Church is continuing along the road of division, of loss of the true faith, of apostasy and of errors which are being spread more and more without anyone offering opposition to them. Even now, that which I predicted at Fatima and that which I have revealed here in the third message confided to a little daughter of mine is in the process of being accomplished. …..And so, even for the Church the moment of its great trial has come, because the man of iniquity will establish himself within it and the abomination of desolation will enter into the holy temple of God."
#485 - The End of Times - December 31, 1992
- The first sign is the spread of errors…
- The second sign is the outbreak of wars and fratricidal struggles…
- The third sign is the bloody persecution…
- The fourth sign is the horrible sacrilege, perpetrated by him who sets himself against Christ, that is, the Antichrist. He will enter into the holy temple of God and will sit on his throne and have himself adored as God.
This one will oppose and exalt himself against everything that men adore and call God. The lawless one will come by the power of Satan, with all the force of false miracles and pretended wonders. He will make use of every kind of wicked deception, in order to work harm. (cf 2 Thes. 2:4,9-10)
One day you will see in the holy place he who commits the horrible sacrilege. The prophet Daniel spoke of this. Let the reader understand. (cf. Mt 24:15)
Beloved children, in order to understand in what this horrible sacrilege consists, read what has been predicted by the prophet Daniel: 'Go, Daniel; these words are to remain secret and sealed until the end time. Many will be cleansed, made white and upright, but the wicked will persist in doing wrong. Not one of the wicked will understand these things, but the wise will comprehend.
'Now, from the moment that the daily Sacrifice is abolished and the horrible abomination is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is he who waits with patience and attains one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days.' (Dn 12:9-12)
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, one thousand two hundred and ninety days.
- The fifth sign consists in extraordinary phenomena, which occur in the skies…
My beloved ones and children consecrated to my Immaculate Heart, I have wanted to teach you about these signs, which Jesus has pointed out to you in his Gospel, in order to prepare you for the end of times, because these are about to take place in your days."
#539 My Secret - delivered at Fatima March 11, 1995
"My secret concerns the Church.
In the Church, the great apostasy, which will spread throughout the whole world, will be brought to its completion; the schism will take place through a general alienation from the Gospel and from true faith. There will enter into the Church the man of iniquity, who opposes himself to Christ, and who will bring into her interior the abomination of desolation, thus bringing to fulfillment the horrible sacrilege, of which the prophet Daniel has spoken. (cf. Mt. 24:15)
My secret concerns humanity.
Humanity will reach the summit of corruption and impiety, of rebellion against God and of open opposition to his Law of love. It will know the hour of its greatest chastisement, which has already been foretold to you by the prophet Zechariah" (cf. Zec. 13:7-9)
Comment: Zechariah 13:7-9 reads:
"Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, against the man who stands next to me," says the LORD of hosts. "Strike the shepherd, (6) that the sheep may be scattered; I will turn my hand against the little ones. In the whole land, says the LORD, two thirds shall be cut off and perish, and one third shall be left alive. And I will put this third into the fire, and refine them as one refines silver, and test them as gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will answer them. I will say, 'They are my people'; and they will say, 'The LORD is my God.'"
.
John Leary (7)
Friday, July 13, 2001:
Jesus said: "My people, a time is coming when the focus at Mass will be more about man than about God. This meeting in a circle will be preparing for the day when the mark of the beast will be worshiped instead of Me (n.b. John receives visions in advance of his messages). This will be the abomination of desolation, for when you worship anyone other than Me, you will be cut off from My grace and headed to the control of the evil one. When you see My churches oriented to man instead of Me, leave this idolatrous church. Better to pray alone than to be a part of such an abomination. The removal of all of your traditions from My Church is where this evil plan is headed for disaster. For when you fail to worship Me, I will send My wrath of justice against you and all the evil ones will be destroyed and sent to burn forever in hell. Have nothing to do with this New Age movement which will destroy the churches. This is not a religion but the beginning of worshiping the Antichrist. Hold close to your faith in Me and refuse the chips in the hand and refuse to worship anything but Me..Once the words of Consecration are removed, then that Mass is invalid and My Real Presence will not be there. Pray for My help and discernment because many will be misled by the evil ones."
Friday, May 25, 2001:
Jesus said: "My people, many of your present day churches will be slowly taken over by those following the New Age movement. Once they have removed all of the Christian signs and traditions, they will start worshiping the gods of the earth. When you do not hear the proper words of Consecration and these new leaders fail to worship Me, then you know it is time to go underground and refuse to attend these false services. Better to worship Me in private than to be taken in by false witnesses. Their works will reveal their evil nature. Call on Me in these last days so the evil ones will not entrance you in their diabolic worship and eventual worship of the beast. Those, who come to Me in faith, will find My protection available in miraculous powers that even Satan cannot defy. I will be the victor in the end so have no fear of the outcome of the trials that you must face."
Thursday, April 19, 2001:
Jesus said: "My people, I am giving you a warning of what is to become of your churches. I have told you before that there are plans to strip your churches of everything to make them ready for worshiping the beast. That is why My tabernacles are being removed from the main church; the statues are being removed and all crucifixes are being taken out. Do not agree to any of the New Age gods and goddesses being placed in your churches. Follow the faith that I have taught you and do not change the words of Consecration."
Thursday, September 7, 2000:
Jesus said: "My people, I am asking you to preserve the Mass as you know it. Do not go along with any changing of the words of Consecration. When the Mass is violated, the bread and wine will no longer be changed into My Body and Blood. See that this one world religion, based on New Age idol worship, is in complete error and offends Me greatly. Pray to preserve your faith even as you will be forced to worship Me in secret."

Jesus said: "Words in the Mass are being changed to suit these evil times. I've told you NOT to add to or subtract from My Words under pain of severe punishment. (cf. Rev. 22: 18-19) Now this punishment is upon you.
Many of My priest-sons even change My Words of Consecration. The prayer books are rewritten as are many hymns. Many are hearing an invalid Mass and My Body and Blood are NOT consecrated. There is no true transubstantiation.
These are dire times, My dear ones. The great schism IS IN MY CHURCH!!! The great apostasy is being lived today, NOW !!!
Pray for My son, John Paul II and obey him. Pray for all My priest-sons and anyone and everyone who teaches My Word. They are subjected to sin and temptation much more often that the rest of My dear children."
December 29, 1999
Jesus said: "In the very near future many churches will close their doors forever. The pastors and assistants desire to be seen and heard--front and center. I am pushed off to the side and religious symbols and altar rails are removed. Even kneelers are now out. Words of the Mass, Consecration, hymns and prayers are changed to suit the people so as not to offend one sex or the other. I've taught you in Revelation, you are NOT to add to or take away from My Word. My Word is the same forever.
Same sex marriages take place in My House and this is very sinful. The churches, Catholic or Christian, where this is allowed or taking place WILL SOON CLOSE THEIR DOORS. Sin and pride are NOT acceptable in My Father's House.
My body and blood are desecrated and there is a great lack of respect. I tell you these churches no longer are House's of Prayer. My Sacred, Consecrated Host's MUST be protected and revered, loved and honored, respected and adored.
There will be a tremendous shortage of priests and religious therefore the lay people must assist the good and holy priests. These priests will go about in disguise celebrating Mass in homes of My people and I will protect the Sacred Hosts from all evil.
- remember there would be NO Mass without Me.
Return ALL TABERNACLES TO FRONT AND CENTER and you sit humbly to the side. You will be rewarded eternally for your love and obedience in honoring Your Savior."
.
Scriptural Prohibitions Against Changing the Word of God
"You shall not add to the word that I speak to you, neither shall you take away from it: keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you." (cf. Deu 4:2)
"Every word of God proves true; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, lest he rebuke you, and you be found a liar." (cf. Prov 30:5-6)
"But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed. " (cf. Gal. 1:8)
"And count the forbearance of our Lord as salvation. So also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you according to the wisdom given him, speaking of this as he does in all his letters. There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures." (cf. 2 Peter 3:15-16)
"I warn every one who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if any one adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if any one takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book." (cf. Rev. 22: 18-19)

An Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
I, (your name), a faithless sinner-- renew and ratify today in thy hands, O Immaculate Mother, the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomps and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to Him than I have ever been before.
In the presence of all the heavenly court I choose thee this day, for my Mother and Mistress. I deliver and consecrate to thee, as thy slave, my body and soul, my goods, both interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present and future; leaving to thee the entire and full right of disposing of me, and all that belongs to me, without exception, according to thy good pleasure, for the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity. Amen.
An Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Abyss of Mercy and Source of every grace and blessing, I consecrate and unite myself to You without exception or reserve - all that I am and all that I have, both temporal and spiritual, past present and future, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your Mother.
I leave myself entirely at Your disposal with complete confidence in Your Mercy and Love and I beg You to look upon this offering of my nothingness before You and to use me for Your own glory, for the honor of Your Mother and for the salvation of souls. Help me to seek You alone in all things. Hide me in the shelter of Your Most Sacred Heart and be my only Consolation and Refuge.
Grant me the graces I need to joyfully accept Your Cross daily, to lead a holy life and to die a holy death in Your service. Help me to trust completely in Your Mercy and Love and never to fear to humbly throw myself before the infinite Ocean of mercy which is Your Most Sacred Heart, especially at those times when I may fail in my faithfulness in Your service. Through this weak and miserable instrument, may Your Mercy, Love, glory and power shine forth. Above all, set my poor heart on fire with the Flame of Love which burns in Your Most Sacred Heart, and teach me how to return love for Love. Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on me - for I place all my trust in You.
How To Save Your Children
During one of the cenacles which Fr. Gobbi held in the United States, he was urged by many concerned people to ask Our Lady specifically what could be done to save the youth from the seductions of the world which were leading many of them astray and causing them to leave the Church. Our Lady gave Fr. Gobbi this definite and final solution to console the parents who are so concerned about the salvation of their children:
Pray the Rosary !
Every time you pray the Rosary say: "With this Rosary I bind all my children to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.".
In doing so, Our Lady promised "to see to their souls.".
The Memorare
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come; before you I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate! Despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me. Amen.
