I have had no doubt that Pope Benedict is the bishop from the third secret since the day he told us he has been called to "climb the mountain". I believe that Benedict BECAME that bishop by his own free will. We will see the completion of the third secret- now whether we recognize certain aspects as they play out is another thing.
Chris writes for a paper tat openly states we will be in the Holy Fathers face and they make no bones about it.... "He is also a regular columnist of The Remnant, a traditionalist Catholic newspaper"...from Wikipedia. I knew his but couldn't put my finger on his connections.I believe Chris is part of the Pope Pious X society started by archbishop Lefeb who was excumunicated by Pope John Paul after Lefeb was told not to ordain any Bishops but disobeyed the Holy Father.Pope Benidict lifted excommunication and the Church is in dialague currently with the society but they are not in communion with Rome.Many claim in the society we never left Rome,Rome left us!.All whats going on today is really summed up in St Don Boscos dream of the Ship and the 2 pillars.Books and pamphlets are thrown at the ship to try and sink her....etc We have to be sooooo careful today! Ever hear of the expression more Catholic then the Church. weather the left door or the right door Satan doesn't care....just leave! Im not bashing you MAC, I just was involved with PPX members in my past and my head spun! many believe Vatican 2 is invalid because Blessed Pope Paul was murdered and replaced with another who had plastic surgery to look like Blessed Pope Paul.....a lot more to say As far as his claims to Pope Benidict still as Pope recently Pope Benedict asked to be called Fr Benidict and not Pope Emmeritus.He noted that when he stepped down his thinking wasn't clear and didn't look forward enough to him wearing wite and being called Pope Emmeritus. That was an EWTN report This is all new ground for the Church
Someone wrote complaining that they had been on the forum for several years and was still listed as a , 'New Member' so I have made him one of the brightest angels in heaven. I have brought my own feet back down to Earth. It doesn't do to take these things too seriously.
In regards to the third secret - and my apologies if this has been brought up previously - but the language about the mirror and how things appear in a mirror: this makes me think that the visionaries saw two bishops in white (hence, two popes). They would likely describe it as things appear in a mirror because the idea of having two popes was seemingly improbable until recently.
This attempt is from study. Frere Michael wrote the 3 volume work Fatima the whole truth.He also interviewed Sr Lucia. View attachment 2661 In the end he speculates what it may contain,This was his educated guess... ‘In Portugal, the dogma of the Faith will always be preserved,’ in many nations, perhaps in almost the entire world, the Faith will be lost. The pastors of the Church will fail gravely in the duties of their office. Through their fault, consecrated souls and the Faithful in great number will let themselves be seduced by pernicious errors spread everywhere. This will be the time of the decisive battle between the Blessed Virgin and the devil. A wave of diabolical disorientation will be hurled over the world. Satan will introduce himself even to the highest summit of the Church. He will blind the minds and harden the hearts of pastors. And God will deliver them to themselves as a chastisement for their refusal to obey the requests of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. This will be the great apostasy predicted for the ‘last times’; ‘the False Lamb’ and ‘False Prophet’ will betray the Church to the profit of ‘the Beast,’ according to the prophecy of the Apocalypse."
lol ...thinking clear as to people using pope emeritus and dressed in white to use against him..not thinking clear meaning he didn't see these assaults . I hope your not saying he was under deress and stepped down, that's not what I take from his statement. Chaseing boogie men
The facts are , he does wear white and is titled Pope emeritus ,potentially fulfilling prophecy. If he had clear thinking and avoided these 2 issues ,then that would of ruled him out. But that is the nature of prophecy.
I agree. The seers had a vision and BIV fits the bill. It doesn't matter why he wears white or why he kept the title.
I didn't ever claim I had any problem with papa Benidict being called Emmeritus or wearing white....never! I was only replying to Macs post # 108 Peace
Francis has to be the Pope of Fatima.....to its fulfillment. His papacy was consecrated to Our Lady of Fatima. Rome, May 14, 2013 (Zenit.org) H. Sergio Mora | 2113 hits Pope Francis’ pontificate was consecrated Monday to the protection of the Virgin Mary, during a Mass held at the Shrine of Fatima. .....At the end of the Mass, and after the consecration of the pontificate, the bishop of Leiria-Fatima, Antonio Marto, read a message that Pope Francis sent to bless the thousands of pilgrims crowded in the esplanade, reported the newspaper Jornal de Noticias. ....The Shrine’s press office told ZENIT that Archbishop Orani João Tempesta of Rio de Janeiro indicated that: "As we all know, the consecration carried out here in Cova de Iria is an act of extreme importance for the Holy Church. His Holiness Pope Francis asked the Lord Cardinal patriarch of Lisbon, José Policarpo, to consecrate to Our Lady of Fatima his pontificate, which began two months ago.” The archbishop added that the act reveals “the Pope’s special affection for Fatima” He immediately took outwardly noticeable steps in his new papacy to demonstrate that. He knows his time is limited by his own admission. davidtlig introduced a most informative video/talk on another thread which backs that up, alluding to what the contents of third secret must be: I've just been made aware of a truly fascinating talk on the subject of Russia, the Fatima third Secret, the Consecration and also St Therese of Lisieux and her connection with Russia. The talk is by a Swiss Catholic priest, Fr Rolf Schoenberger, who gave a presentation at a retreat in Mexico at the end of last year. The whole talk is spread over two videos totalling about 45 minutes but it is really worth listening to all of it because it includes much information about these topics that are often discussed on this forum. Fr Rolf has helped great numbers of people in Russia and Eastern Europe through charity work. The talk ends by Fr Rolf agreeing with those who anticipate important events occurring up to the Fatima anniversary of 2017. The videos, which follow sequentially are at:
In his book, Frère Michel reports that, when questioned about the Secret, Sister Lucy said: "It’s in the Gospel and in the Apocalypse, read them!" He notes that she then particularly indicated Chapters VIII through XIII of the Apocalypse (Chapter XIII specifically concerns the rise of the Antichrist). In his study of the Third Secret, Frère Michel builds a powerful and compelling case that the Third Secret is a grave warning of apostasy within the Catholic Faith and a serious indictment of those in the Church hierarchy who have promoted dissent and outright heresy.
I think this certainly is a possibility.....anything is possible. I wonder if we see Benedict doing this because of an open assassination of all of ROME including Francis....by the enemy. Perhaps Benedict will have been in Germany with family at the time and returns to examine the destruction. I suppose anything is possible and we could speculate ad infinitum....I know one thing for sure.....Francis is NOT a false pope....
