I stumbled upon this post from a few years ago, this evening. In the midst of our struggles and disappointments it is important to look into the not too distant future, for the victory of which August 5, 1984 was a sign! (Thank you Wild Wyoming for uncovering it) O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee!
Hmmm? Thanks Mario, not sure what I did though . That video with Sister Emmanuel is amazingly powerful, I love her so much. Funny enough,earlier today I watched Robert Nugent's new video also talking about the graces being poured out in Medjugorje, maybe the Holy Spirit is trying to tell me something. Perhaps it's time to renew our passports.
Father Petar of Medugorje has said that this day is drawing, 'Closer and closer'. At the Birth of Jesus, historians tell us was the only time in the entire history of the World when there were no wars anywhere on Earth. God the Father and the Holy Spirit prepared the way for thousand of years.prepared. Bethlehem. The exact right place at the exact right time to the exact right Mother. It is easy to become impatient, but God's Time is the perfect right time....and that time is almost upon us.
When I was in Medjugorje recently Fr Petar was the main celebrant at the international Mass. If we are on the verge of a nuclear incident I'm expecting to hear the first of the secrets to be announced before hand. We are told that the first secret will be about a devastating event.
The Medugorje Secrets confuse me a little. At first I took it that there were the same ten secrets given to each visionary. But then someone said that, no, it was ten different Secrets given to each of the ten visionaries, which would be 100 different Secrets...
Thank you; I thought that anymore than Ten would be a lot. Ten is already a lot. https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/10.html The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 10 The number 10, in the Bible, is used 242 times. The designation "10th" is used 79 times. Ten is also viewed as a complete and perfect numeral, as is 3, 7 and 12. It is made up of 4, which represents the physical creation, and 6, which symbolizes man. As such, the meaning of 10 is one of testimony, law, responsibility and the completeness of order. We find, In Genesis 1, the phrase "God said" 10 times, which is a testimony of His creative power. God gave the Ten Commandments to man. Ten therefore represents man's responsibility to keep the commandments. A tithe is a 10th of our earnings and is a testimony of our faith in the Lord. The Passover lamb was selected on day 10 of the 1st month (Exodus 12:3), as was Jesus, the Lamb that takes away the sins of the world (John 12:28 - 29; 1Corinthians 5:7). Day 10 of the 7th month is also the Holy Day known as the Day of Atonement. This unique day of fasting pictures the removal of Satan, the author of sin, before the millennial reign of Jesus begins (Revelation 20:1 - 2).
The Later secrets relate to chastisement that will occur especially if the warning is not heeded and people don't convert. The 7th secret has been mitigated through the prayers and fasting of the visionaries. Our Lady told them that that can't happen again as the chastisement are dependant on the level of response fron people. If people truly convert then the severity will be reduced. I believe it will take many years for the secrets to play out.
It is a comfort to me that we shall have several days notice before the secrets happen. It will be so strange for unbelievers. These things announced in advance and then happening. How will unbelievers explain that? It will be very difficult. But then again people have a tendency to believe exactly what they choose to believe and want to believe and are told to believe. Witness vaccines and masks.
I have asked my tour director about this. After his more than 30 years of travel there, tight bond with our local Guide, he assures me they all have the same. Yet, the fact they do not all yet have call 10 secrets, is more of a puzzle.
