From the Old Testament through ages up to modern times, prophecies are consistent on the chastisement of fire that is yet to come. Were the prophecies referring to a nuclear war? A third world war?
In the Church-approved apparitions of the Blessed Mother to Sister Agnes Sasagawa in the 1970’s, the Blessed Mother warned: “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...”
Indeed, Isaiah 66:16 says: “For the Lord will execute judgment by fire, and by His sword on all flesh, and those slain by the Lord will be many.”
And from Malachi 4:1: “For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. The day that is coming shall set them ablaze, says the Lord of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch.”
In the apparitions of the Blessed Mother in Garabandal, Spain in the 1960’s, the visionaries were given a vision of that fiery day. But their impression was that the fire of chastisement would come directly from Heaven, although the visionaries, all children at that time, were believed to be quite unfamiliar with nuclear power.
Other messages to modern mystics, however, are rather explicit in that the fire of chastisement would not be man-made. Consider what Our Lord Jesus told mystic Sister Beghe on Nov. 11, 1987 (as quoted by Fr. Adolf Faroni SBD, with old fashioned imprimatur and nihil obstat):
“It is the love for mankind and the love I receive in return from a very small number of suffering and consenting souls which made Me have pity on humanity, and I have reduced and I still continue reducing the severity of My justice.
“I am the Lord and I want to continue the explanation given by My most holy mother, the Church of Philadelphia will certainly be paradise on earth.
“The church of Philadelphia has already begun in the hearts of those who are loyal, but they will not really be pleasing to Me until they have been purified of their weaknesses by the fire, which coming from Heaven, will purify and renew all creation.
“The fire which will come from Heaven has already been announced in the Gospel, but men had erroneously believed that fire will be sent from Heaven only at the end of the world.
“That fire which will purify the earth of its sins and of its filthiness has been announced by My mother in (Garabandal) Spain and also in other nations. The fire that will fall from Heaven will be the same as the fire that purifies the souls in Purgatory.
“It is of a different nature than the one on earth and for this reason it will renew all things, but it will now renew the souls who have taken the demon as master. Those will be struck by lightning and will end with the prince of darkness, king of the damned.” (End of quote.)
Meanwhile, more messages have been given by the Blessed Mother through mystic Pedro Regis. On May 30, 2023, she told Pedro:
“Dear children, I am your Mother and I have come from heaven to reveal to you the Will of My Son Jesus concerning your life. I have come to announce the complete Will of God to you! The day will come when I will reveal to you extraordinary things that I have seen and heard from my Son Jesus.
“ I will not bring you speculations, but the complete truth. Your hearts will be filled with joy, and many souls who are far off will return to the truth. I ask you to keep the flame of your faith alight. You have freedom, but it is best to do the Lord’s Will.
“Pay attention! You are heading for a future in which the righteous will drink the bitter cup of pain, but, as I said, there is no victory without the cross. Courage! Heaven must be your goal. This is the message that I give you today in the name of the Most Holy Trinity. Thank you for having allowed me to gather you here once more. I bless you in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Be at peace.”
Elsewhere, on June 6, 2023, St. Michael the Archangel has another message through third-degree Augustinian stigmatist Luz de Maria de Bonilla. He said:
“Beloved children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ. beloved children of Our Queen and Mother of the End Times, I come to you by Divine Will.
AT
“At this time, it is urgent for you to be sure of who each of you is individually. All human beings must know who they are and most know themselves.
“So many human beings are enclosed within their human ego, preventing them from being able to see themselves in the constant error in which they are living. In these calls to review yourselves inwardly, it is necessary for you to have the genuine and real intention to search within yourselves NOW: What is in you? What is your commitment to Christ? What are your feelings, your desires, your behavior and morality?
“I call you not to look at your ego but at your behavior towards your neighbor: What is your degree of love for your neighbor and your dedication to your neighbor? Are you creatures of good or creatures of evil? How much good dwells in you? What is the quality of your works and behavior?
“Beloved children of our King and Lord Jesus Christ: As creatures belonging to this generation, you have not confronted evil as strongly as previous generations. The pestilence of sin resides in the Antichrist: the evil he possesses comes from hell itself – therefore, anger and persecution will come from the one who totally dominates him.
“The Antichrist has great personality and the cunning to draw the masses and convince them, as he will not cause panic, but will attract by means of lies and deception. He is making treaties with some earthly powers of darkness in order to create chaos in humanity and separate people from their Lord and God, establishing a new religion and hindering assistance through mutual food, health, and economic aid between countries. He will make humanity surrender easily to him in order obtain what people need in order to subsist, without thinking about eternal salvation.
“The economy will collapse sequentially. From one moment to the next you will be obliged to acquire what is necessary before it falls, for when it falls the economy will fall everywhere.
“You are living in the distractions of the world and far from love for the Holy Trinity and Our Queen and Mother. Yet out of love for Her children, She grants this to you:
“To those who confess their sins beforehand with true repentance, on June 15, our queen and mother will give the the grace of greater love for the Most holy Trinity and for their brothers and sisters, in preparation for them to face the trials which there already are on earth and which will become greater and greater.
“I bless you,”
