Blessed Mother: 'World on edge of catastroph­e'

-

It’s now almost four decades ago that the Queen of Peace issued an urgent appeal to mankind, and that’s a rather long time for a warning with a tone of immediacy, thus:

"The world lives amidst very strong tensions. It is on the edge of catastroph­e...Tell the whole world; tell it without delay, that I ardently wish conversion. Be converted, do not wait. I will ask my Son that He not

chastise the world. Convert yourselves, renounce everything, and be ready for everyt hi ng"

The message was conveyed to the Medjugorje visionarie­s way back in 1984.

Other messages received by credible Catholic mystics reveal deferment, postponeme­nt of conditiona­l prophecies, especially those that warn of tribulatio­ns which, in uniformity being disclosed from Heaven towards various points of the compass, would be unpreceden­ted, even worse than Noah’s flood. Only mercy, only a bargaining for more to be reached for conversion, could be the reason for the delays. But then, even regardless of the pandemic, the world is becoming stranger amid prophecies that seem to be descending.

Some such prophecies trace back to centuries ago but now seem to be finding reality. For example, St. Senanus (d. 560) had warned that "dreadful plagues will come upon all the race of Adam" while St. Columba (d. 597) prophesied “dreadful storms and hurricanes shall afflict them. Numberless diseases shall then prevail.”

Amid the motu propio issuance of Pope Francis, there is the prophecy of St. Malachy of Ireland *1095-1148) who said: "During the last persecutio­n of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit upon the throne, Peter the Roman, who will feed the sheep amid great tribulatio­ns, and when these are passed, the City of Seven Hills (Rome) will be utterly destroyed, and the awful Judge will then judge the people.”
