Thank you Fatima. I am so new to being back with God. I have this overwhelming feeling of wasting my whole life up to now. I have done so much for me and stuck in this world and now have this feeling of regret and sadness for not doing so much more for others and God. Even now by doing all this you recommend, which I am doing a lot of what you mentioned, but I feel guilt because it is all stuff for me again and my salvation but what of others? How can I get the courage to tell and prepare others. I say the rosary and chaplet of divine mercy every day for the mercy and conversion of others which I know is great but only if I could have the courage to talk to others then do these prayers with others. I can only pray for God's help here. I feel so much joy and yet so much sadness as well.
Fatima said...I hope this thread stays alive and discussed, as we have been deceived by the highest authorities in the Church. This video is par excellent in detailing this travesty. Our Lady of Fatima must be so hurt by this deceit . I agree Fatima.Perhaps you could run and update this thread much the way Glenn does with Garabandal. There is easily room for a full time Fatima thread on this Forum, it is constantly a hot and relevant topic. Even your user name suggests it.
Andy3, you are to hard on yourself. Our Lord does not desire that we meditate on our past sins. Notice that when He appears, it is in images of Divine Mercy. We are all sinners, but we are also to be people of joy. You must pray for this and look to His mother Mary and the love they have for you and not our sinfulness. You might even consider making a plenary indulgence, which takes away not just the guilt of sin, but temprol punishment due to sin. You will be as clean as a new baptized baby! During this "Year of Grace", which ends in November, you only need to visit the Church of your baptism, go to confession (within a week), go to communion, say a rosary and keep from sin that day in order to receive this plenary indulgence. Sadness is not a virtue, but humility is. Just be sorry for your sins and trust in the Mercy of God.
Mac, it was Our Lady of Fatima who brought meaning and excitement to my poor faith nearly 30 years ago. I have a deep devotion to her. Named my first daughter, Jacinta. This Fatima conference series has been a good thing for me, because the messages of Fatima seemed to have died and in most places have.
This has to do with Fatima and the consecration,..very interesting http://www.johnsalza.com/p/fatima.html
sunburst, this is all very interesting. I plan on getting that book, as I feel the 3rd secret of Fatima and the Consecration to Russia is some of the most important prophecy of all time. I am personally 'ticked off' that I was duped by Cardinal's and Popes who led me (us), especially with the announcement in 2000 by the highest official in the Vatican, that the consecration had been done. Has to be Freemasonry within the highest levels of the Vatican in order to pull that lie off.
There is a very holy priest at the Latin Mass I attend, and at the end of the Mass and before we do the the three Hail Marys and the St. Michael prayer,..he specifically prays for the consecration of "Russia" Many things appear also to have been revealed through Our Lady Speaks to Her Beloved Priests in which she reveals the freemasonry
Father Gobbi spoke often on Freemasonry and its evil. Unfortunately at the same time he was giving us heaven's messages (locutions) about this evil, there were many priest, bishops and cardinals in the Church making lite of Masonry to the point, as Voris reveals in his latest Vortex, they were saying it was not wrong to belong to the Masonic Lodge! This is one of the great benefits of this forum, very little slips through the cracks here and I did not have this assurance 30, 20, 10 or even five years ago. Thanks Padraig!
Possibly the contents of the third secret are contained here...http://www.fatima.org/thirdsecret/neueseuropa.asp
Pope Paul VI: The tail of the devil is functioning in the disintegration of the Catholic world. The darkness of Satan has entered and spread throughout the Catholic Church even to its summit. Apostasy, the loss of the faith, is spreading throughout the world and into the highest levels within the Church. Address on the Sixtieth Anniversary of the Fatima Apparitions, October 13, 1977. Pope Paul was dead 10 months later.
Mac, I don't think we will ever know the 3rd secrets of Fatima. I think some of them are being manifested as we speak and I see this evil around. The way I see it is, I know enough about what has been prophesized and I am preparing for the worst via prayer and penance and visits to the Blessed Sacrament. Fatima holds the key, but we may not understand it all until it takes place. I just keep going back to Ralph Martin's prophecy at Rome. That to me say's it all.
I think one day we will find out the truth on the third secret, It is a message first for the Pope , but the Queen of Heaven also wants the people to know it.As others have said , there will come a point where there is no reason to keep it secret any longer.
Yes, and Mark Mallett gives a good presentation on the prophecy in Rome. I think it also ties into the secrets http://www.markmallett.com/blog/the-prophecy-at-rome-part-i/
Fatima, I do not get how people can believe the 'consecration' has been done? You see, there is no fruit. The Blessed Mother's words "but it will be late" quote gives us hope. Speak of John Salza, there is a blogger who references John's writings. Read this one page on the Eucharist. In John Salza's study of the Eucharist, he shows you Jesus perfectly states what He wishes to say. http://www.acatholicthinker.net/the-eucharist/
I believe that the 1984 Consecration was done for the reason that Sister Lucia confirmed that it was done. Technically speaking, for the Consecration to be valid, it had to be done by the Holy Father in Communion with the world's bishops( fulfilled in 1984), with the special mention of Russia (fulfilled in 1952 and renewed in 1984 , this time with the world's bishops)
And who revealed what Lucia said? Was it none other then Cardinal Bertone? His credibility is in grave question as reported on this thread and in many other threads on this forum. Personally, I do not believe a word his says in the area of Fatima.
