Mac, I don't think the actual 3rd secret of Fatima will ever be read, but it will be reavealed in real time soon.
Mac, its this exact point that always gets me wondering. The first time I read the secret, I was amazed and wondered "is this it?". Apparently Mother Angelicas face had a similar look of puzzlement when she heard the secret being read for the first time.
And we saw in an immense light that is God: ‘something similar to how people appear in a mirror when they pass in front of it' a Bishop dressed in White ‘we had the impression that it was the Holy Father'. They have the impression it is the Holy Father. But they are not sure. Is this Bishop dressed in white Pope Francis , Pope Benedict or even as some say Pope John Paul II? Like the children we can't possibly be sure. I tend to think Benedict will still have a role to play, But it may come with the death of Pope Francis. [But this is just my silly guessing games.] I still think Benedict fits this prophecy..."I have seen one of my successors, of the same name, who was fleeing over the bodies of his brethren. He will take refuge in some hiding place; but after a brief respite he will die a cruel death. And from LaSalette..."The Holy Father will suffer greatly. I will be by his side to the end in order to receive his sacrifice. The wicked will make several attempts on his life but they cannot harm him. But neither he nor his successor [here, Melanie inserted in parentheses the words, 'who will not reign long'] will live to see the triumph of the Church of God ...
Anyway I think Ill just conclude [for fear of boring you all] with the idea that a Pope will really be killed.Martyred. ...' he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him' And yes, Arrows are in fact a used weapon among elite forces around the world...
The arrows in the Fatima Vision are not Arrows still used by elite forces, you are right and I can confirm myself they are still used but in my opinion missiles or if you prefer modern arrows. Aviso
I agree Mac that a pope will indeed be martyred and it is not symbolic but actual. St. John Bosco vision seems to show this scene as well as so many other mystics of the church who have seen it too. "Imagine yourself to be with me on the seashore, or better, on an isolated rock and not to see any patch of land other than that under your feet. On the whole of that vast sheet of water you see an innumerable fleet of ships in battle array. The prows of the ships are formed into sharp, spear-like points so that wherever they are thrust they pierce and completely destroy. These ships are armed with cannons, with lots of rifles, with incendiary materials, with other firearms of all kinds, and also with books, and advance against a ship very much bigger and higher than themselves and try to dash against it with the prows or burn it or in some way to do it every possible harm." "As escorts to that majestic fully equipped ship, there are many smaller ships, which receive commands by signal from it and carry out movements to defend themselves from the opposing fleet. In the midst of the immense expanse of sea, two mighty columns of great height arise a little distance the one from the other. On the top of one column, there is the statue of the Immaculate Virgin, from whose feet hangs a large placard with this inscription: Auxilium Christianorum - "Help of Christians"; On the other columnm, which is much higher and bigger, stands a Host of great size proportionate to the column and beneath is another placard with the words: Salus Credentium - Salvation of the Faithful (Believers). "The supreme commander of the big ship is the Sovereign Pontiff. He, seeing the fury of the enemies and the evils among which his faithful find themselves, determines to summon around himself the captains of the smaller ships to hold a council and decide what is to be done. All the captains come aboard and gather around the Pope. They hold a meeting, but meantime the wind and the waves gather in storm, so they are sent back to control their own ships. There comes a short lull; for a second time the Pope gathers the captains around him, while the flag-ship goes on its course. But the frightful storm returns. The Pope stands at the helm and all his energies are directed to steering the ship towards those two columns from whose summits hang many anchors and strong hooks linked to chains. "All the enemy ships move to attack it, and they try in every way to stop it and to sink it: some with books and writings or inflammable materials, of which they are full; others with firearms, with rifles and with rams. The battle rages ever more relentlessly. The enemy prows thrust violently, but their efforts and impact prove useless. They make attempts in vain and waste all their labor and ammunition; the big ship goes safely and smoothly on its way. Sometimes it happens that, struck by formidable blows, it gets large, deep gaps in its sides; but no sooner is the harm done that a gentle breeze blows from the two columns and the cracks close up and the gaps are stopped immediately. Meanwhile, the guns of the assailants are blown up, the rifles and other arms and prows are broken; many ships are shattered and sink into the sea. Then, the frenzied enemies strive to fight hand to hand, with fists, with blows, with blasphemy and with curses. "Suddenly the Pope falls gravely wounded. Immediately, those who are with him run to help him and they lift him up. A second time the Pope is struck, he falls again and dies. A shout of victory and joy rings out amongst the enemies; from their ships an unspeakable mockery arises. But hardly is the Pontiff dead than another takes his place. The pilots, having met together, have elected the Pope so promptly that the news of the death of the Pope coincides with the news of the election of the successor. The adversaries begin to lose courage. "The new Pope, putting the enemy to rout and overcoming every obstacle, guides the ship right up to the two columns and comes to rest between them; he makes it fast with a light chain that hangs from the bow to an anchor of the column on which stands the Host; and with another light chain which hangs from the stern, he fastens it at the opposite end to another anchor hanging from the column on which stands the Immaculate Virgin. At this point, a great convulsion takes place. All the ships that until then had fought against the Pope's ship are scattered; they flee away, collide and break to pieces one against another. Some sink and try to sink others. Several small ships that had fought gallantly for the Pope race to be the first to bind themselves to those two columns. Many other ships, having retreated through fear of the battle, cautiously watch from far away; the wrecks of the broken ships having been scattered in the whirlpools of the sea, they in their turn sail in good earnest to those two columns, and having reached them, they make themselves fast to the hooks hanging down from them and their they remain safe, together with the principal ship, on which is the Pope. Over the sea their reigns a great calm."
Yes ,through ligit prophecy this is clear. Getting into this now ,So much prophecy I get a headache......http://www.scribd.com/doc/4956324/Catholic-Prophecy
Reading this tonight I had the thought that possibly the 'dying pope' could be the papacy of Benedict XVI - there were certainly shouts of victory from the enemy when he stepped down. I also never understood the bit about throwing books etc at the ship but tonight it instantly struck me as the constant assault in the printed media and the internet.
The thought occurred to me that maybe the mountain mentioned in the 3rd fatima secret is the mountain where those trapped Christians are. The ones trying to escape Isis. The are and will continue to be martyered. I don't know but just I would post this thought.
Anything is possible PS. My thoughts are that those in Iraq are mentioned here... Fatima (20th century). Our Lady said: "If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not,Russia will spread her errors in every country, raising up wars and persecution against the Church; many will be martyred. The Holy Father will have much to suffer, and many nations will be destroyed." And I think the city in ruins will be Rome which I think I can find more prophecy to back up. Here is another prophecy warning of the actual death of a future Pope Pope Pius IX (1878)There will come a great wonder, which will fill the world with astonishment. This wonder will be preceded by the triumph of revolution. The church will suffer exceedingly. Her servants and her chieftain will be mocked, scourged, and martyred.
I always thought the hill in the secret with the Pope on it was one of the 'seven' hills of Rome and that the Pope would be martyred in Rome. St Malachy's prophecy concerning the end of the times Pope also mentions Rome being destroyed. In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep through many tribulations, at the term of which the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the formidable Judge will judge his people. The End. Why is this Pope called the Roman and why is he last on the last on the list? And why the definitive statement 'The End'? Some used to interpret this as the end of the world. But In light of other prophecies I think it refers to the end of the papacy in Rome that after the destruction of Rome the papacy will move. Some prophecies indicate Jerusalem. That would make sense as Jerusalem is the centre of the great three monotheistic faiths - Christianity, Judaism and Islam. We know that the Jews will one come to recognise Jesus as the Messiah, and prophecy indicates that the Moslems will also be converted (this is where I see Fatima as central to this - the pagans in S. America were converted through Guadalupe - I believe the Moslems will be converted through Fatima in some way). So it will be possible for the Papacy to reside in Jerusalem, (which in the Bible is seen as the centre of the Universe). http://ohr.edu/887
' the Holy Father passed through a big city half in ruins' A city half in ruins may well be Rome . Rome , can be found in other prophecy.... September 10, 1820. "I saw the Church of St. Peter: it had been destroyed but for the Sanctuary and the main Altar. SISTER ELENA AIELLO (20TH CENTURY)“Russia will march upon all the nations of Europe, particularly Italy, and will raise her flag over the dome of St. Peter’s. Italy will be severely tried by a great revolution and Rome will be purified in blood for its many sins, especially those of impurity. The flock is about to be dispersed and the Pope will suffer greatly.
Speaking of Italy, I came upon this message last night from a alleged mystic I know little about. It speaks of Italy as a place that colapses first. For your discernment http://valentina-sydneyseer.com.au/messages_2014.htm 22 June, 2014 Feast Day of Corpus Christi This morning while I was saying my prayers, our Lord Jesus appeared to me and said, “Peace, be with you My child. I want you to write this message and warn the people of the danger that is coming upon all of you. Your world is not in peace, neither is it stable as you may think so. Soon you will all experience and know that I your Lord Jesus speak the Truth. There will be a terrible conflict and miseries everywhere in the world. First it will start in Italy. There will be a recession and the economy will crash badly. Then slowly it will spread everywhere.” As He was looking at me, He said, “Do you know My child, that I blessed this country Australia abundantly, and it is a very lucky country.” “Indeed I blessed it.” He said Then He took me in spirit, and showed me all the supermarkets in Australia, with all the abundant food in their stores. As we were standing in the supermarket, our Lord Jesus said, “People never thank me. They take everything for granted. They show no gratitude at all. My child, take a good look at all of this, that I am showing you. Soon, all these shelves will be empty, and there will be a shortage of food. This will slowly lead to famine.” He also said, “There is something else that I want to tell you. Your electronic devices will soon be broken. Then this country will be in chaos. The only way that they will be able to communicate will be through Hong Kong. There is another thing I want to warn you about. It is the impending danger coming from Iraq. Secretly, they are planning a war, and that war can lead to a third world war.” He shook His Head and said, “So much misery and Evil that it breaks My Heart to watch all of this. My Children, pray, pray, this is the only solution. Pray, pray, these are very serious and dangerous times that you are living in.” Lord Jesus be merciful to us and protect us.
Thank you Eammon for bringing this to our attention. I look forward to the proper translation and commentary. APOCALYPTIC NEWS FROM FATIMA (THE ULTIMATE MYSTERY: THE SILENCE OF THE SISTERS, BUT WHO IS SILENT...) There is nothing new in the yellow "third secret of Fatima", a prophecy that across the 20th century and its projected realization seems final. The news is contained in an official publication of the Carmel of Coimbra, that where you lived and died (in 2005) sister Lucia dos Santos, the last Seer. It's called "A caminho sob o olhar de Maria" and a biography of sister Lucy written by sisters, with valuable unpublished documents of the same Seer. Before seeing them remember well what is the history of Fatima. The STORY of a century in the flare up of the great war, on May 13, 1917 our Lady appears, in the Portuguese village, to three Shepherd children. Lay newspapers make a mockery of the "dupes" defying the Virgin to give a public sign of his presence. She looks to the three children will sign and last appearance, that of October 13, 70 thousand person noticed at the Cova de Iria assist terrorized the whirl of the Sun in the sky. A phenomenon that the aftermath will be reported in the newspapers (pure anticlerical). In the apparition of 13 July our Lady had given children a message for the whole world. Was the great prophecy of decades if humanity had not returned to God. In fact took everything: the Bolshevik revolution in Russia, the spread of communism in the world, the bloody persecutions against the Church and finally the tragic second world war. There was also a third part of the secret was to reveal – said the Lady – in 1960. Now that Giovanni XXIII fell swoop, declared all because terrible was his content. Provoked a welter of hypotheses. In 2000 Giovanni Paolo II made known the text of the third secret contains the famous vision of the "Bishop dressed in white", with the Pope over a destroyed city, the many corpses and then the martyrdom of Pope, bishops, priests and faithful. From many elements one could guess that was not all. I also, like other authors, in 2006 I published a book, "the fourth secret of Fatima", where I was missing the part, written and posted later with the words of our Lady explaining the vision itself. The same Secretary to Giovanni XXIII, Archbishop Capovilla, who had lived in the first person, in a conversation with Solideo Paolini hinted at the existence of that mysterious "attachment." Ecclesiastical is part is officially denied that exists and that there are prophecies that relate to today's times. RATZINGER 2010 But a resounding implicit confirmation came by Benedict XVI during a sudden pilgrimage to Fatima, May 13, 2010, stated: "You illuderebbe who thinks that Fatima's prophetic mission is concluded". He added: "the reality are the future of the Church as they grow and show themselves ... and so are the sufferings that you announce". But what prophecies could be in that text? Do they think these two sentences the Pope uttered in that speech at Fatima: "man could unleash a cycle of death and terror, but fails to stop it". And then: "faith in large regions of the Earth, is in danger of dying out like a flame that is no longer powered". From the words of Pope Benedict is understood, therefore, that there is indeed more to the third secret and is drama for the world and for the Church. Just as the Pope's visit is perhaps due to the publication of this book that does filter through another piece of truth. The volume indeed draws to sister Lucy's letters and unpublished diary entitled "my journey". Awesome, among previously unseen, is the story of how sister Lucia overcame the terror that prevented to write the third secret. The UNPUBLISHED to the 16 of January 3, 1944, in the chapel of the convent, before the Tabernacle, Lucia asked Jesus to know his will: "I feel then that a helping hand, affectionate and motherly I tap my shoulder." It is "the mother of heaven" that says: "are you at peace and write what you drive, but not what I was given to understand its meaning," going to allude to the meaning of the vision that the Virgin herself had revealed. Soon after, says sister Lucy-"I heard the spirit flooded with a light mystery that is God, and in him I have seen and heard: the tip of the spear as a flame that comes off, tap the axis of the Earth, and it trembles: mountains, cities, towns and villages with their inhabitants are buried. The sea, rivers and clouds out of bounds, overflow, flood and drag her back to a whirlwind, houses and people in an issue that you cannot count, is the purification of the world from sin in which are immersed. The hate, the ambition, the destructive war. After I heard in accelerated heart throb and my spirit a light voice saying, ' over time, one faith, one baptism, one church, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic. In eternity the Heaven! '. This word ' Sky ' fill my heart of peace and happiness, so that, almost without realizing it, I kept telling myself for a long time: the sky, the sky! ". So you are given the strength to write the third secret. The new song that I just mentioned is a very interesting document, where the insiders are easily confirms the historical reconstruction that the third secret is composed of two parts: one, the vision, was written and submitted before, and the other – the one that in the words of our Lady is "the meaning" the same vision – was written and sent later. And ' the famous and mysterious "Annex" which mentioned Camarillo. It is the text, not yet published, where presumably is the part that most frightened sister Lucy. The same part that frightened Giovanni XXIII (but also, before him, Pius XII) and that Roncalli chose not to disclose why – in his opinion – could be just a thought of sister Lucy and not have supernatural origin. It is a part so that explosive continues, officially denying the existence. And the opening of Benedict XVI in 2010, which has also led to the publication of this volume, is now closed. WHO IS SILENT...; This is demonstrated by what happened to Solideo Paolini, major Italian scholar of Fatima which, having regard to the pages of this book that I sent, wrote to the Carmel of Coimbra asking to see the two new works mentioned in the book, considering that there are more details on the secretata. The letter arrived at its destination (the receipt of it), but had no reply. Paolini then wrote again entering into the merits and wondering if sister Lucy has ever put in black and white that "vision" meaning that the had been given to understand and that 3 January avoided logging at the suggestion of our Lady: "in the works that I asked to see there is no reference to ' something more ' about the secret of Fatimaso far, verbatim unedited? ". The letter was received on 6 June. But it has not been answered. Yet it would have been easy to answer no. Clearly, the answer was "Yes", but you can not give, because that would be explosive. So are silent. However, the vision that I have just mentioned refer to the two elements that supposedly are contained in unpublished text of the secret: the prophecy of an enormous calamity for the world and a great apostasy and crisis in the Church. An apocalyptic test at the end of which – said the Lady Fatima itself – "my Immaculate Heart will triumph". This hoped "triumph" made reference in 2010 Benedict XVI: "Can these seven years that separate us from the centenary of the apparitions (2017) rush the foretold triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in the glory of the Holy Trinity". It means that today, 2014, we are already entered into the frightening proof? In fact if you look at the record and ...

This from the first post on this thread... the water of the oceans will become vapors and the foam will rise up and flooding and sinking everything. Millions and millions of people will die by the hour and the survivors will envy the dead. Is very close to this new piece ...The sea, rivers and clouds out of bounds, overflow, flood and drag her back to a whirlwind, houses and people in an issue that you cannot count, And Pope John Paul II in Fulda 1980... "On the other hand, it should be sufficient for all Christians to know this: if there is a message in which it is written that the oceans will flood whole areas of the earth, and that from one moment to the next millions of people will perish, truly the publication of such a message is no longer something to be so much desired."
Pope Benedict XVI deliver his last Angelus address, in which he said that “the Lord called me to ‘climb the mountain,’ When he said this I almost fell out of my chair!
