I think so. And I never wanted to. I endured years of "End Times, End Times" as a kid. Adults in the late 1970s/early 1980s (!) on and on about it. In Iowa?? THEN?? Nothing going on in Iowa then, except crops growing in the summer and blizzards howling in the winter. For years after I put it WAY on the back burner. Well SURPRISE!
Satan’s slaves are so cunning about it that, unless a newscaster says so, no one would believe. Although we see signs all around us but we refuse to admit it, worrying that people will think we are crazy. We even call the weather going crazy climate change. Thinking that people getting to plan things together means you’re looney tunes.
That's so true! Whatever is on main stream media must be real! What a joke. There are no more real reporters there. Those with integrity were forced to leave or left because they just couldn't deal with the script!
1. Hieromonk Anthony of St. Sabbas’ Monastery, based on Anonymous Greek Prophecies (8th or 9th century): “The last days have not yet arrived, and it is completely wrong to consider that we are on the threshold of the coming of the antichrist, because one last flourishing of Orthodoxy is still to come, this time in the whole world, headed by Russia. This will take place after a terrible war in which either one half or two thirds of humanity will perish, and which will be stopped by a voice from heaven: ‘And the Gospel will be preached throughout the world’.
"As to the exact day or hour, no one knows it, neither the angels in heaven nor even the Son, but only the Father. Be constantly on the watch! Stay awake! You do not know when the appointed time will come" (Mk 13:32-33).
Deborah, I removed one of those links because it contained malicious Trojan software. Please be careful, 'A Trojan horse, or Trojan, is a type of malicious code or software that looks legitimate but can take control of your computer. A Trojan is designed to damage, disrupt, steal, or in general inflict some other harmful action on your data or network. ... A user has to execute Trojans.'
Ive decided to ban Deborah and remove any content that she posted providing links I would consider it an accident if she posted the link once but then decided to repost the same link in another thread, I also removed any content that she linked in case her computer was also compromised. If I have missed anything please let me know.
Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning. -Winston Churchill
In the reading for mass today there was a wonderful mystical phenomena mentioned that we sometimes hear of mentioned in the saints. Which is why perhaps we see them portrayed as shinning with a halo. First reading Exodus 34:29-35 © Moses passes on to the people the orders given by the Lord When Moses came down from the mountain of Sinai – as he came down from the mountain, Moses had the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands – he did not know that the skin on his face was radiant after speaking with the Lord. And when Aaron and all the sons of Israel saw Moses, the skin on his face shone so much that they would not venture near him. But Moses called to them, and Aaron with all the leaders of the community came back to him; and he spoke to them. Then all the sons of Israel came closer, and he passed on to them all the orders that the Lord had given him on the mountain of Sinai. And when Moses had finished speaking to them, he put a veil over his face. Whenever he went into the Lord’s presence to speak with him, Moses would remove the veil until he came out again. And when he came out, he would tell the sons of Israel what he had been ordered to pass on to them, and the sons of Israel would see the face of Moses radiant. Then Moses would put the veil back over his face until he returned to speak with the Lord. We notice too with Our Lady at her apparitions time and time again this light. The Spouse of the Holy Spirit. The Light of the Holy Spirit. The Veil over Moses Face reminds me of the veil over the Tabernacle.
We are very like the Hebrews, being led by Our Lady, the New Moses out of the Captivity of Egypt and into the Promised Land, which is The Triumph of the Immaculate Heart. Like the Hebrews we are surrounded by Signs and wonders. As Mary said, 'I have buried you with Signs'. I thought it wonderful what Pope Benedict said to the German Bishops and Church that Faith is essentially of the Heart, not just of the Head. The Heart can read the Signs of the Times. Be a Witness to the Supernatural wereas the mind often denies its own eyes. Is dead to the Supernatural, the mystical.
