Two prophesies, one from Scripture and one from the Blessed Virgin Mary predict worldly chastisements that would come at a chosen moment where people will be dropping like flies.
“And there shall be in all the
earth, saith the Lord, two parts in it shall be scattered and shall perish: but the third part shall be
left therein. (Zacharias 13:8)
“In the year 1864, Lucifer together with a large number of
demons will be unloosed from hell;…they will put an end faith little by little,
even those dedicated to God. They will blind them in such a way, that, unless
they are blessed with a special grace, these people will take on the spirit of
these angels of hell; several religious institutions will lose many souls.” (The Blessed Virgin at La Salette September 19, 1846)
There have been three major apparitions of Our Lady in the
last 176 years, La Salette, Lourdes and Fatima. In each of those three
apparitions Our Lady told of forthcoming enormous
chastisements. For verbal economy
only the above two prophesies will be reviewed.
In Reviewing the prophesy of Zacharias 13:8 it’s obviously
that the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the economic sanctions the West has
imposed on Russian authorities and businesses created a looming threat of a
nuclear war. Such a result is not only possible, but very probable.
If nukes were to be used it would exacerbate this irrefutable Biblical prediction of the forthcoming chastisement. A nuke
war could be the meaning and understanding of Zacharias 13:8.
In reviewing Our Ladies apparition regarding Lucifer’s release from
Hell, we clearly see a multitude of religious
institutions (literally thousands of religious sects including the Protestantized Vatican II Church) distorting Scripture thus causing these
false religions to lose souls by putting an end to faith little by little, as
told by Our Lady.
It’s not surprising that very few people
are willing to believe and follow what God has made available through
prophesies. Many object and say: many years have already past and I have not
seen a chastisement, and, who knows when it will come! etc., etc., etc.
Well, I sustain the chastisements have already begun. Our Lady appeared in La Salette in 1846; in 1870 the
Franco-Prussian war started as a result of the rivalry between France and
Germany which resulted in French
hegemony. This rivalry would reach an apex in
1914 and be the most profound cause for World War I, as well as for World War
II. The squabbles of WWII
still have not been resolved completely and the perspective of a World War III
lies on the horizon. The current war between Russia and the Ukraine with a
possible nuclear apocalypse could very well be the start of WWIII and the great
chastisement predicted at La Salette and Fatima.
A prime example of chastisement
prophesies was the Deluge. Noah took 100 years to complete his work, and then
the Flood came. The fact that the Deluge took so long a time to come did not
mean that it would not come. Scripture tells the Deluge did indeed come.
Our Lord predicted that the Temple of Jerusalem would be
destroyed. When He died, the veil of the Temple was rent and the walls were
damaged but the Temple remained standing. Decades passed and the prophecy was
not fulfilled. Then, 40 years after Our Lord’s death, a soldier from the army
of Titus threw a torch into one of the windows of the Temple. A fire started
and spread quickly engulfing all the buildings leaving not one stone remaining
over the other just as Our Lord had said it would be. Moreover, the
Temple was never rebuilt. The fact that it took a long time to come did not
mean that it would not come. God’s timetable is on His terms, not ours.
We should pray to be among the few who abide by Scripture
and the voice of Our Lady and patiently pray and wait for the chastisements she
predicted. We do not know how many years we must await for the promises of La
Salette and Fatima to be fulfilled. Because of the present disastrous worldly times
we may surmise: “Now it has to come, because it is impossible for the situation
to be any worse.” And it might get worse. Yet it may not come in our lifetime,
but all prophesies will eventually come to pass
“Keep alert at all
times. And pray that you might be strong enough to escape these coming horrors
and stand before the Son of Man” (Luke 21:36).
