For some reason it wouldn't let me reply to Cubs and Terrys post on this so I am putting this reply here: From Father Gobbi: June 3, 1989 (Milan) [Rev 13:1-2] In this terrible struggle, there comes up from the sea, to the aid of the Dragon, a beast like a leopard. If the Red Dragon is Marxist atheism, the black beast is Freemasonry. The Dragon manifests himself in the force of his power; the black beast on the other hand acts in the shadow, ... He has the claws of a bear and the mouth of a lion. ... The seven heads indicate the various Masonic lodges, which act everywhere in a subtle and dangerous way. This black beast has ten horns and, on the horns, ten crowns, which are signs of dominion and royalty. ... The horn, in the biblical world, has always been an instrument of amplification, ... For this reason, God communicated his will to his people by means of ten horns which made his law known: the ten commandments. ... if the Red Dragon works to bring all humanity to do without God, to the denial of God, and therefore spreads the error of atheism, the aim of Masonry is not to deny God, but to blaspheme Him. ... The greatest blasphemy is that of denying the worship due God alone by giving it to creatures and to Satan himself. ... Each Masonic lodge has the task of making a different divinity adored .[Please note: No beast colored black is mentioned in Revelation. The Apparitions have added the dimension black to this beast. This label of black was used earlier on June 29, 1983. In my view, this beast represents the rise of the end-time government of the Antichrist.] June 13, 1989 (Dongo, Como) [Rev 13:11] ... there comes out of the earth, by way of aid to the black beast which arises out of the sea, a beast which has two horns like those of a lamb. The lamb, in holy scripture, has always been a symbol of sacrifice. ... The beast has on its head two horns like those of a lamb. To the symbol of the sacrifice there is intimately connected that of the priesthood: the two horns. The high priest of the Old Testament wore a headpiece with two horns. The bishops of the Church wear the mitre - with two horns - to indicate the fullness of their priesthood. The black beast like a leopard indicates Freemasonry; the beast with two horns like a lamb indicates Freemasonry infiltrated into the interior of the Church, that is to say, ecclesiastical Masonry, which has spread especially among the members of the hierarchy. ... If the task of Masonry is to lead souls to perdition, bringing them to the worship of false divinities, the task of ecclesiastical Masonry on the other hand is that of destroying Christ and his Church, building a new idol, namely a false christ and a false church. Aug. 15, 1989 (Rubbio, Vicenza) ... the fall of Babylon, when the vintage of the earth will be harvested and the grapes will be cast into the wine press, which represents the great chastisement of God. Sept. 8, 1989 (Dongo, Como) The mark on the forehead and on the hand is an expression of a total dependency on the part of those who are designated by this sign. Dec. 8, 1989 (Rubbio, Vicenza) [Rev 12:1] ... I am seen as the Woman Clothed with the Sun, who has the task of fighting the Red Dragon and his powerful army, ... The twelve stars represent the twelve tribes of Israel, ...The twelve stars also signify the twelve Apostles, ...The twelve stars also signify a new reality.
