Footnotes
1.
Our Lady did not mention the Apocalypse, but it is inferred from the
text of the secret ("various nations will be annihilated"). Her secret
presents a diverging path; whether there would be a period of peace
first or not (before the antichrist).
2.
All apparitions or prophecies after 1958 are considered suspect, in
that they do not take into account the establishment of the antipopes in
the Vatican. There are a few in the intervening years. These are
examined in Progression Of Catholic Prophecy.
3. After the first apparition, Jacinta let their secret out. Providentially as it turns out.
4. The Miracle was limited to a certain limited radius around the Cova da Iria,
where the apparitions took place, at Fatima. That it was not seen
outside of this area means that She stopped time everywhere else for the
duration of the Miracle. There is an indication in Apocalypse that a
similar stoppage will happen for the signing of the elect (Apoc. 7:1-3)
signified by the 'holding of the wind' or all movement.
5.
This consecration was intended to result in the conversion of Russia,
setting aside that nation for service to Christ rather than service to
the devil in communism.
6.
That seeming atheists would bother to do this means they are not so
much atheist as opposed to Christ. Their vision of a kind of utopia on
earth betrays a spiritual awareness of original sin even as they deny
it. The name for people of this ilk, enslaved to the devil whether they
realize it or not, is the mystery of iniquity (2 Thess. 2:7); also called the 'conspiracy of revolt' by Knox.
7. In "Two Timelines Of Apocalypse (Part Three)" the divergent timelines will be examined in light of Apocalypse chapter ten in particular.
9. Fuentes, 1957. The text is reproduced below. Taken from fatima.org.
She did not put it in those terms, but it is seen in the Apocalyptic
text itself. She must have had chapter 12 in mind when speaking to Fr.
Fuentes.
10. See The Pope In Red and WhiteSmoke1958.
Also, in the book "The Vatican Exposed" by Paul Williams, there are
supposed to be declassified FBI documents which concern Siri's election.
Siri's election is referenced on pages 91-92, and 243. The Vatican Exposed at archive.org.
11. List of Soviet Union leaders (Wikipedia). There are eight listed until Gorbachev. Although Gorbachev dissolved the Communist Party, the faction
which may be called the 'mystery of iniquity' retained power over the
nation. Siri died in 1989; his election and the consequent suppression
of his papacy was meant to neutralize the papacy, spiritually, so that
whomever is subsequently elected will not be restrained by the Holy
Spirit from teaching error. After Siri died, the 'mystery of iniquity'
found no further reason to keep up the pretense of communism also as the
demoralization of the West had progressed sufficiently, as well as the
replacement of validly ordained prelates from the pontificate of Pius
XII. As the faction retained its hold over Russia, Yeltsin and
Putin are included among the seven 'heads'. The three who are not
included are Malenkov (1953) who was there for only six months; and
Andropov (1982-84) and Chernenko (1984-85) who seemed to be interim
rulers until Gorbachev. Due to poor health (Andropov was usually
replaced by Nikolai Tikhonov) or lack of support, these three were
inconsequential and were not true rulers of the communist enterprise in the full sense (the diadems).
Gorbachev's Glasnost and Perestroika was for world communism/globalism a shift in strategy and methods; not in its ends.
12. It would be scandalous, had he been known as the pope, if he did this; but as he was still known only as a cardinal, there was nothing, on the surface, unusual about this.
13. It is believed he will be heard from again, since his pontificate is prorogued.
Possibly in connection with the signing of the elect (chapter seven).
It need hardly be added that he would have reigned during the 'period of
peace' had Russia been consecrated according to the Fatima request. It
is possible that either way he is destined to reign:
A theory that his pontificate was prorogued: The
Vatican Council (1869-70), properly speaking, was never officially
closed due to internal strife in Italy at the time; thus it was
prorogued (put on hold) indefinitely. Another council of this scope, a
general council, cannot be called before the former is concluded. A true pope
would have to officially close it before beginning another, and Roncalli
was not a true pope; nor did (or could) he close the Vatican council.
And
now a new, illicit pontificate is begun when a pope is already elected
(Roncalli was already ineligible due to his connection to freemasonry
and heresies). One can speculate how, but it could be Siri's pontificate
was prorogued as well, whether by his own decree or by some
pre-ordained ordinance of Heaven. It is possible that the act of
suppressing his pontificate so that it was entirely unknown enabled
this, since the Papal office is to teach, not be silenced. Another way to state it is, as per Christ's promise that the 'gates of hell' shall not prevail against His Church, that this capacity to be 'taken out of the way' at a certain time, to be preserved somehow, was always in the nature of the papacy.
In
chapter eighteen, verse six, it is written, concerning 'Babylon the
great': "Render to her as she also hath rendered to you; and double unto
her double according to her works, etc.". It is this double
suppression, that of supplanting the Vatican Council with a false one,
and of Siri with Roncalli, which would eventually result in what St.
John is told is 'Great Babylon'. There is another 'double': The
crucifixion of Our Lord and now the passion of the Church.
14. The Knox translation indicates that, at the same time
the man-child is 'taken up to God', the woman is retreating from Rome
to the world's dioceses. This would seem to indicate that the posited prorogation happened immediately. It may have been prepared for beforehand, as is the "place of refuge" where the woman goes.
15.
It is possible that, since the papacy (the 'man-child') was "taken up
to God, and to his throne", there is no longer any papacy on earth from
which to be in schism. The 'place of refuge' consists in the continuity
of the Church's mission as though it were an ordinary sede vacante.
16. It is not necessarily exactly
1,260 days, but the time period is meant to be about three and a half
years; this is to be distinguished from the "time and times, and half a
time" of Apoc. 12:14, and the "two and forty months" of Apoc. 13:5. In
chapter eleven, verse two, there is another time period of "two and
forty months"; this is the equivalent of the time of the beast of
chapter thirteen, but in the other timeline (it has to be either chapter eleven or chapter thirteen). In
other words, the "two and forty months" is meant to represent the
persecution of the good by the beast; and the other periods equaling
three and a half years represent other time periods.
17. Fuentes, 1957. The full text is reproduced below. Taken from fatima.org: “Father, the devil is in the mood for engaging in a decisive battle
against the Blessed Virgin. And the devil knows what it is that offends
God the most, and which in a short space of time will gain for him the
greatest number of souls. Thus the devil does everything to overcome
souls consecrated to God, because in this way the devil will succeed in
leaving the souls of the faithful abandoned by their leaders, thereby
the more easily will he seize them.”
18.
It is hardly conclusive, but it would seem that their former places in
heaven, from before their fall, gave them the ability to wage this
decisive battle. Alternatively, as Knox seems to suggest, their former
places in heaven had little to do with it.
19.
The devil attempted to drag souls to hell by giving them a false pope
to follow; but this has to be done willingly, with full knowledge and
consent. If it is "damned if you do, damned if you don't" (to
unknowingly follow a false pope or to knowingly not follow he who is
thought to be the actual pope) then it is not a choice. That is why the
papacy was taken away, as it is the locus of this choice.
20. See "Last Three Seals In Our Time" for the sixth seal event.
21.
"The Apocalypse Of Saint John" by Fr. Sylvester Berry and "The Book Of
Destiny" by Fr. Hermann Kramer were never referenced for this
interpretation, since those books were never acquired.
The 1957 Interview With Sr. Lucia And Fr. Fuentes
Taken from here.
“I
wish to tell you about the last conversation which I had with Sister
Lucy on the 26th of December (last year). I met her in her convent. She
was very sad, very pale and emaciated. She said to me,”
“No One Has Paid Any Attention”
“Father,
the most Holy Virgin is very sad because no one has paid any attention
to Her Message, neither the good nor the bad. The good continue on their
way, but without giving any importance to Her Message. The bad, not
seeing the punishment of God actually falling upon them, continue their
life of sin without even caring about the Message. But believe me,
Father, God will chastise the world and this will be in a terrible
manner. The punishment from Heaven is imminent.”
The Secret Not Revealed
“Father,
how much time is there before 1960 arrives? It will be very sad for
everyone, not one person will rejoice at all if beforehand the world
does not pray and do penance. I am not able to give any other details,
because it is still a Secret. According to the will of the Most Holy
Virgin, only the Holy Father and the Bishop of Fatima are permitted to
know the Secret, but they have chosen to not know it so that they would
not be influenced. This is the third part of the Message of Our Lady,
which will remain secret until 1960.”
Russia, the Scourge of God
“Tell
them, Father, that many times the Most Holy Virgin told my cousins
Francisco and Jacinta, as well as myself, that many nations will
disappear from the face of the earth. She said that Russia will be the
instrument of chastisement chosen by Heaven to punish the whole world if
we do not beforehand obtain the conversion of that poor nation.”
“The Decisive Battle” Between Mary and Satan: the Falling Away of Consecrated Souls and Priests
Sister
Lucy also told me: “Father, the devil is in the mood for engaging in a
decisive battle against the Blessed Virgin. And the devil knows what it
is that offends God the most, and which in a short space of time will
gain for him the greatest number of souls. Thus the devil does
everything to overcome souls consecrated to God, because in this way the
devil will succeed in leaving the souls of the faithful abandoned by
their leaders, thereby the more easily will he seize them.”
“That
which afflicts the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Heart of Jesus is
the fall of religious and priestly souls. The devil knows that religious
and priests who fall away from their beautiful vocation drag numerous
souls to hell. … The devil wishes to take possession of consecrated
souls. He tries to corrupt them in order to lull to sleep the souls of
laypeople and thereby lead them to final impenitence. He employs all
tricks, even going so far as to suggest the delay of entrance into
religious life. Resulting from this is the sterility of the interior
life, and among the laypeople, coldness (lack of enthusiasm) regarding
the subject of renouncing pleasures and the total dedication of
themselves to God.”
That Which Sanctified Jacinta and Francisco
“Tell
them also, Father, that my cousins Francisco and Jacinta sacrificed
themselves because in all the apparitions of the Most Holy Virgin, they
always saw Her very sad. She never smiled at us. This sadness, this
anguish which we noted in Her, penetrated our souls. This sadness is
caused by the offenses against God and the punishments which menace
sinners. And so, we children did not know what to think except to invent
various means of praying and making sacrifices.”
The other things which sanctified these children was to see the vision of Hell.
The Mission of Sister Lucy
“Father,
that is why my mission is not to indicate to the world the material
punishments which are certain to come if the world does not pray and do
penance beforehand. No! My mission is to indicate to everyone the
imminent danger we are in of losing our souls for all eternity if we
remain obstinate in sin.”
The Urgency of Conversion
Sister
Lucy also said to me: “Father, we should not wait for an appeal to the
world to come from Rome on the part of the Holy Father, to do penance.
Nor should we wait for the call to penance to come from our bishops in
our diocese, nor from the religious congregations. No! Our Lord has
already very often used these means, and the world has not paid
attention. That is why now, it is necessary for each one of us to begin
to reform himself spiritually. Each person must not only save his own
soul but also help to save all the souls that God has placed on our
path.”
“The
devil does all in his power to distract us and to take away from us the
love for prayer; we shall be saved together or we shall be damned
together.”
Last Times
“Father,
the Most Holy Virgin did not tell me that we are in the last times of
the world, but She made me understand this for three reasons.”
The Final Battle
“The
first reason is because She told me that the devil is in the mood for
engaging in a decisive battle against the Virgin. And a decisive battle
is the final battle where one side will be victorious and the other side
will suffer defeat. Also, from now on we must choose sides. Either we
are for God or we are for the devil. There is no other possibility.”
The Last Remedies
“The
second reason is because She said to my cousins as well as to myself,
that God is giving two last remedies to the world. These are the Holy
Rosary and devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. These are the last
two remedies which signify that there will be no others.”
The Sin Against the Holy Spirit
“The
third reason is because in the plans of Divine Providence, God always,
before He is about to chastise the world, exhausts all other remedies.
Now, when He sees that the world pays no attention whatsoever, then as
we say in our imperfect manner of speaking, He offers us with ‘certain
fear’ the last means of salvation, His Most Holy Mother. It is with
‘certain fear’ because if you despise and repulse this ultimate means,
we will not have any more forgiveness from Heaven, because we will have
committed a sin which the Gospel calls the sin against the Holy Ghost.
This sin consists of openly rejecting, with full knowledge and consent,
the salvation which He offers. Let us remember that Jesus Christ is a
very good Son and that He does not permit that we offend and despise His
Most Holy Mother. We have recorded through many centuries of Church
history the obvious testimony which demonstrates by the terrible
chastisements which have befallen those who have attacked the honor of
His Most Holy Mother, how Our Lord Jesus Christ has always defended the
honor of His Mother.”
Prayer and Sacrifice and the Holy Rosary
Sister Lucy told me: “The two means for saving the world are prayer and sacrifice.”
Regarding
the Holy Rosary, Sister Lucy said: “Look, Father, the Most Holy Virgin,
in these last times in which we live, has given a new efficacy to the
recitation of the Rosary. She has given this efficacy to such an extent
that there is no problem, no matter how difficult it is, whether
temporal or above all spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us,
of our families, of the families of the world or of the religious
communities, or even of the life of peoples and nations, that cannot be
solved by the Rosary. There is no problem I tell you, no matter how
difficult it is, that we cannot resolve by the prayer of the Holy
Rosary. With the Holy Rosary we will save ourselves. We will sanctify
ourselves. We will console Our Lord and obtain the salvation of many
souls.”
Devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
“Finally,
devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, our Most Holy Mother,
consists in considering Her as the seat of mercy, of goodness and of
pardon, and as the sure door by which we are to enter Heaven.”
