Coming of Antichrist just around the corner?

But a great saint - Thérèse of Lisieux - was so taken by this book that it spurred her entry into the convent. "Reading this book was one of the greatest graces of my life," she says in her autobiography. "The impression I received from it is too sweet to express. All the great truths of religion and the mysteries of eternity plunged into my soul a happiness not of this earth."

 

For those who knew the great Brazilian Catholic apologist Orlando Fedeli (1933–2010), founder of the Montfort Association, he did not believe in the coming of the great French monarch and thought that the prophecies about him were millenarianism and the result of the doctrine of Joachimism. Malachi Martin believed the Antichrist was alive as early as the 1990s; Bishop Schneider does not believe the prophecy about the three days of darkness. Therefore, I think that the topic of eschatology brings disagreements even among great men of faith.

 

What book are you referring to?

 

I have this book and have never been able to get into it.

 

End of the Present World and the Mysteries of the Future Life by Father
Charles Arminjon.

 

I don’t agree that it sounds like our present world. We are immersed in powder keg wars, false flags of all descriptions. I do agree about the licentiousness of our times, and the fact that the elite own everything behind our backs. But no, sadly, people are not living without a care now. We have plenty of cares.

I guess I don’t agree with this timeline.

 

Jason, i am looking for the source of this statement by Fr. Yasuda. Would you have it?

 

Yes, it's just common sense. The Antichrist creates "a war" (a spiritual one) in the Roman Catholic Church. Catholics are confused because the guy that they think is the Pope is turning the Faith upside down. This is "the Tribulation." It is the time when "the faith" of Roman Catholics will be tested.

The test question is this:

Option 1: will you follow the novel teachings of a man who you think (incorrectly) is the Pope?

OR

Option 2: will you follow the traditional teachings of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church laid down by Jesus and the Apostles?

The overwhelming majority of "Catholics," who love novelties, will follow the fake Pope (the Antichrist) and they will persecute the tiny number in "the faithful Remnant," those who refuse to give up the traditional Faith, traditional liturgy and traditional disciplines.

We are in this time now. The Tribulation (the spiritual one) will intensify, until Jesus steps in and clarifies (supernaturally) what the Truth really is. That supernatural set of events will be the start of the Period of Peace, the spiritual one. It will only be a "consolation" to those who love God and repent of their sins and persevere.

The above is primarily what the Biblical prophecies are about. A spiritual battle for the souls of "the elect," Roman Catholics.

However, Satan (and the Antichrist) are twisting the prophetic Scriptures to confuse people. They are intentionally orchestrating geo-political events that they know people will assign (incorrectly) as "End Times" events. They have set up a parallel sequence of events to deceive people. And the media is their tool to spread this nonsense.

All the wars and pestilences that we are seeing in the news are being orchestrated by Satan. That is not what the Biblical prophecies are primarily about. The reason Satan is doing this is because he needs a counterfeit war so that he can usher in a counterfeit peace. The Antichrist is the man who negotiates the counterfeit peace. The "worldlings" will be so surprised and happy that the world is not ending. They will adore the man who negotiates this new world peace.

The Counterfeit peace is an "earthly peace," and to bring it about humanity will be told that they must accept sin, that the 10 Commandments cause people to fight each other. Instead, the Antichrist will say, we must all agree to get along. We cannot force our morality on others, he will say. The Antichrist's message is that we are all brothers and sisters. "Human fraternity" is the goal, not eternal salvation. This "religious deception" is what is described in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, section 675-676, when it references the Antichrist. He will trick people into choosing an earthly "peace and security" (1 Thessalonians 5:3) in exchange for giving up"eternal life." How? Because he will say that the 10 Commandments are optional and that we must accept sin. This is "wokism.' And most will consent to (2 Thessalonians 2:11) his new doctrine and follow him into perdition.

Those following the novel Satanic teachings are the many who are "left behind," left on this mortal earth by their own free choice, while the few "elect" are "taken" by Jesus (Matthew 24:40-41) to a supernatural paradise. For those "left behind," the world continues for some time, but it becomes a kind of hell because the only inhabitants of that earth are demons in human form, those bereft of God's grace because they refused God's mercy after the Warning.

Again, read CCC 675-677. Read all of the footnotes associated with that. Then read what I said again. Oh, and make sure you are truly in a state of grace. Anyone persisting in a state of mortal sin will have a darkened intellect. And pay special attention to purity regarding the 6th and 9th commandments. May God bless you.

 

I don't agree with it either.

 

Hmmm, this sounds like the protestant rapture theory.

 

It does. Exactly.

 

You mean this "rapture" theory, the one confirmed by St. Thomas Aquinas (read and learn):

103. This does seem difficult to maintain, for many still alive will suffer in the persecution of the antichrist and be more distinguished than those who had died before.

And so it seems necessary to answer the question in a different way, saying that all will die and all will rise at the same time. For the Apostle does not say that the dead will rise first and then the living, but that the dead will rise before the living will meet Christ. Therefore he is not speaking about the resurrection in terms of the order in which they shall rise, but of the order in which they will be taken up to meet Christ. For when the Lord does come, first those who are found alive will die and then, immediately together with those who had died before, they will rise up and be taken up into the clouds to meet Christ, as Paul clearly says.

But there is a difference between the good and the evil people, because the evil people will remain on the earth that they loved, while the good people will be taken up to the Christ whom they had sought. Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together (Matt 24:28). In the time of the resurrection the saints will be conformed to Christ, not only with regard to the glory of the body (Phil 3), but also with respect to place, for Christ will be in a cloud. A cloud took him out of their sight (Acts 1:9), and Jesus will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven (Acts 1:11). And so the saints too will be taken up into the clouds.

The reason for this is to show their likeness to God. For in the Old Testament the glory of the Lord appeared in the form of a cloud. The Lord said that he would dwell in a cloud (1 Kgs 8:12). These clouds will be prepared by divine power in order to show the glory of the saints. Or, the resplendent bodies of the glorified will appear as clouds to the evil people who will remain on earth. Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him (Matt 25:6).​

 

The source is from Fr Elias Mary who travelled to Japan and met with Sr Agnes Sasagawa in early 2023, he found her after much detective work and Gods graces, in a nursing home in southern Japan hundreds of miles away from Akita.
He made a short video of the encounter with Sr Agnes and its on Vimeo, I think.

Fr Elias' good friend David Dennecy (spell?) went back a few months later to visit again and this time there was much opposition from the care givers, no one was allowed to visit Sister, they were even threatened that the police would be called.
The two videos of all this information and the subsequent discovery of the second book of Fr Yasuda , is presented by 'the mother and refuge of end times'.

Below the first video contains information on Fr Elias meeting with Sr Agnes



Below the second video contains the translated words of a passage out of Fr Yasuda second book, which is written in Japanese and is about 380 pages, Miraculously Fr Elias translator opened the book on the page regarding the words of Our Lady regarding the rosary and the sign left by my holy son, which Fr Elias wanted clarification on, however this passage also gives information on the last pope, Please note the Japanese translator has no vested interests as he is not a Catholic nor even a Christian. The passage in question is spoken of from the 22 minute mark to the 35 minute mark

 

Hi PNF
In the above you are quoting scripture passages regarding the second coming of Christ.


Our Lady's words at Akita

October 13, 1973

"My dear daughter, listen well to what I have to say to you. You will inform your superior."

After a short silence:

"As I told you, if men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests."

"The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against bishops. The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres...churches and altars sacked; the Church will be full of those who accept compromises and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord.

"The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will be no longer pardon for them"

"With courage, speak to your superior. He will know how to encourage each one of you to pray and to accomplish works of reparation."

"It is Bishop Ito, who directs your community."

And She smiled and then said:

"You have still something to ask? Today is the last time that I will speak to you in living voice. From now on you will obey the one sent to you and your superior."

"Pray very much the prayers of the Rosary. I alone am able still to save you from the calamities which approach. Those who place their confidence in me will be saved."

 

The following quote is very important to read closely:

As I told you, if men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead.
​

Our Lady said, "if men do not repent," then the punishment will affect "all humanity." Yes, but if one DOES REPENT, do you think that God the Father is going to "inflict a terrible punishment" on that person. Of course not, God is just.

But if you DO NOT REPENT, then "fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out" some of those people. Our Lady says that in this group will be "a great part of humanity" (the larger part).

In that large group, "the good" referred to probably refers to those in a state of grace yet still stained with venial sins. Those "good" will need to go through a kind of cleansing on earth before they meet the Father in Heaven. Only those who are "pure," with a white wedding garment, can attend the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

The first "harvest" of the 144,000 will be those who have a pure white garment at the moment that Jesus returns. The second group, still in need of cleansing but basically "good," will, like St. Paul, be shown their errors and told what they will have to do as penance on earth before they rise to be with the Father. They must fight and persevere, as the embodiment of the Two Witnesses, in the final battle of Armageddon against the forces of Satan/Antichrist until the end.

All of this "harvest" stuff is in the Apocalypse. The section on the "Seals" focus on the 144,000. The section on the "Trumpets" focus on the Two Witnesses. And section on the "Bowls" focuses on the leftovers. The same basic sequence is repeated in each section, but the certain parts, more relevant to each group, are emphasized in each re-telling.

A private revelation like Akita, since it is true, must conform to Biblical public revelation. And I provided the quote by St. Thomas Aquinas explaining 1 Thessalonians 4 above. The message of Akita cannot contradict that.

 

I think it was Fr. Ripperger who said that Mary was who took Satan's place; this makes more sense to me. Satan was the bearer of light and then Our Lady bore the light to the world through her humility.

 

Perhaps Lucifer, before the fall, was just below Jesus in the heavenly hierarchy, just as Our Lady, since her glorious assumption.

 

I have no idea how dogmatic this is, but I think Lucifer was a cherub, which would place him below the Seraphim.

Edit - I read this somewhere, don't remember where lol

 

Thanks for letting us know. I'll add him to my ignore list.

 

I see him on the speaker list for the Divine Mercy Conference in Dublin.
