I agree that it is in situations of confusion/controversy within the Church that the role of properly discerned private revelation becomes critical... whereas as the examples of MDM and Bayside in the past demonstrate, following false revelations can lead to outright desertion from the faith, especially when such 'revelations' advocate rebellion against a duly-elected Pontiff. Besides the obvious question of what may appear in the messages from Medjugorje, I would in particular watch the following currently active sources carefully as they arguably represent what I would call the 'international prophetic consensus' at the moment and seem to be the names accorded the highest degree of credibility by sites attempting to discern contemporary locutions in a responsible fashion - Edson Glauber/Itapiranga, Zaro, Giulio Massa, Pedro Regis, Luz de Maria Bonilla, Pelianito, Sulema, Francine Bériault ('La Fille du Oui à Jésus'), TLIG.* If there is to be direct comment from heaven on matters concerning the Church, my sense is that an interpretive line will emerge consistently in these sources as it has done until now. * Am leaving aside sets of messages which look very solid and concur with those mentioned above but either appear to be finished or else are dormant at the moment (our own Verne Dagenais, Myrna Nazzour, Agustin del Divino Corazon, Gladys Quiroga, Giglio tra le Spine, 'Mother of the King of Kings' (Chaldean visionary in Michigan), Léandre Lachance, Anna Argasinska...).
But not everyone reads every page of every thread and so some could miss your instructions. Only saying!
Is this the thread where I can make comments about the Apostolic Exhortation? Just kidding! Sorry, Padraig - I couldn't resist. In all seriousness, I agree with your decision. It is wise. I will join you in prayer... Peace!
I would love to start another thread that allows us all to have a guess or hunch as to what it could be I am like a child on Christmas Eve
