New - ST JP II’s prophetic remarks at Fulda

This man Dr Antonio Yague is a possible danger to the faith. Whilst I don't deny he is a good man he spends way too much time trying to work out the mysteries of God. How many people are deceived by such people who think they hold the key to unlocking the future. When his predictions fail it leaves some of his followers disillusioned.

 

I find your theories and the corresponding deductions interesting.
If I understand correctly, you see the current pope as the antichrist.
What would happen if he died?

 

According to St. Hildegard von Bingen, the Antichrist will, in fact, "appear to die." Here is her description of that:

Hildegard on the Antichrist’s pretended death

From Scivias:

But I [the Antichrist] will die for you and to your glory, and rise again from death; and so I will deliver my people from Hell, that you may live gloriously with me in my kingdom, as that deceiver [Jesus] pretended He had done before." And he will tell his beloved ones to run him through with a sword and wrap him in a clean shroud, until the day of his resurrection. And he will delude them into thinking they are killing him, and so they will fulfill his commands. Then he will pretend to rise again, and bring out a writing as if for the salvation of souls, which is really a dire curse. And he will give this to people for a sign [mark] and command them to adore him. And if any person of faith refuses for love of My name, he will kill [excommunicate?] that person in great suffering and torture. And thus all who see and hear this will be struck with great wonder and doubtful amazement, as My beloved John shows... (Scivias, Book III, Vision 11, 31).

From Book of Divine Works:

For so too will he [the Antichrist] pretend to die, as if to redeem his people by his death, and to raise himself up again to return to life. He will also have an inscription [mark] written upon the foreheads of his followers, through which to introduce into them every evil, as too the ancient serpent, after deceiving humankind, kept them captive by stoking them with lust. Through that scripture he will inspire them by magical craft to oppose baptism and the Christian name, so that they will not desire to leave him, and all will style themselves after him, just as Christians are named after Christ. (The Fathers of the Church, Mediaeval Continuation, Volume 18. St. Hildegard Von Bingen, The Book of Divine Works. Pages 469, Part III, Vision 5, Chapter 31).​

 

Correct. Understanding of Prophecy comes through the heart, not through the head. Protestants go for the head not through the heart.

Not that the head does not have its place. But its comes through the heart first.

This was a kind of quasi Protestant , quasi scientific understanding.

Give me an old fashioned Catholic saint/ mystic who talked to God face to face any day of the week.

For instance St John Bosco.

Your brain does not produce the Gift of Prophecy. It produces possible estimates. Educated guesses.

The prayerful heart, in touch with God who is Infinite , beyond time , produces Prophesy.
