Manifestations of overriding concupiscence have become universal in our days. You see men and women sporting purportedly the latest swimwear fashion wherein more skin than fashion is shown gyrating on catwalks; girls and young gays delighting elders while aping Miss Universe wannabes in scanty pieces; women and men of all ages going under the scalpel to chisel better their curves on the altar of sexual vanity. Ah, etcetera.
Even only on these grounds, we see substance in the warnings from Catholic mystics on the gravity of human offenses. Also portents of Divine Justice afoot. These, even as we are reminded of what the Blessed Mother had told the three visionaries in Fatima, Portugal in 1917.
In that small town where 70,000 people witnessed the great miracle of the sun, Our Blessed Mother declared: “More souls go to Hell because of sins of the flesh than for any other reason.”
Later, she also told visionary Jacinta that “Certain fashions will be introduced that will offend Our Lord very much.”
The warning to women was also issued in Fatima as the Blessed Mother said: “Woe to women lacking in modesty.”
Also, the Blessed Mother said: “Let men avoid greed, lies, envy, blasphemy, impurity.”
They were warnings of scenarios that could have been forestalled but have instead come into reality- widespread, persistent, without hope of letting up. We must indeed be in the end times (though not the end of the world, Catholic mystics repeatedly insist).
Since Fatima, the warnings from Heaven have become even more frequent, even more dire. Consider the following message of the Blessed Mother through mystic ValeriaCopponi n April 12, 2023:
“My daughter, I am with you: let us invoke the help of Jesus, that He would come soon to deliver you from the enemy, from the one who wants your eternal death. I will never leave you on your own, especially in these sad times.
“Yes, little children, perhaps you do not realize it, but never as in these times is your enemy massacring souls. Invoke God’s help, day and night, pray to your Eternal Father to do justice and free so many of my children from Satan and his followers.
“You cannot imagine how many of your brothers and sisters on your earth are dying, [on the way] to suffer eternally in hell.
“Pray and invoke God’s goodness, so that He would soon send My Son Jesus among you to recover so many souls in danger of eternal death. I am suffering as in the times when Jesus offered Himself to the Father for the salvation of so many of His children.
“Pray that your dark times on your planet would soon pass; my dearly beloved children, come to enjoy the eternal love of your Blessed Mother and of God the Eternal Father. I will still pray for many of your brothers and sisters to be converted.
“Thank you my dearly beloved children for your prayers; Jesus loves you so much. I clasp you to my Immaculate Heart.”
In Argentina, St. Michael the Archangel had another message through third degree Augustinian stigmatist Luz de Maria de Bonilla on April 20, 2023. The archangel said:
“Beloved children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ, I address you by Divine Command.
“You have commemorated Holy Week and the feast of Divine Mercy, and you have offered yourselves in the intention that all would be loving and would fulfill the Divine Law. Now it is of great importance that you pray for those who are in a period of conversion.
“From love comes all that the human race needs in order to be better and to advance continuously: I am speaking to you about love in the likeness of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ.
“Beloved children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ, great and serious conflicts are spreading throughout the Earth, like the air when it announces that there will be a storm.
“Be creatures of prayer, of living in adoration of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ; go to receive the Body and Blood of Our King and praise Our Queen and Mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary; do not deny her, carry her in your hearts.
“Children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ: You should know that the Antichrist is going where you think it the least likely. You are afraid of him, you know about his power over humanity and you are waiting for him to show himself in public. He is the shadow bringing darkness to man; he is temptation. That is why he is obeyed: like a cunning reptile he seizes whatever he wants.
“How many Antichrists have passed through the earth, and how many Antichrists there are at this moment - in yourself, in your misused ego, in your pride, all around you! But the real Antichrist will appear in public.
“Children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ: The economy will become unstable and the humanity will panic. In order to advance in terms of power, they will melt down metal and paper will be burned, implementing what has been announced, and most countries will welcome the new currency.
“You will go through purifictions, but our King will protect His own and increase their faith..
“Do not be afraid of those who persecute or slander you; were it not so, then you should be worried.
“Christ already reigns in the hearts of His faithful: he is Hope, Faith, Charity, Refuge and Security for His children.
“God's children are the apple of His eye and He cares for them with Eternal Love.
“Beloved children of Our King and Lord Jesus Christ, I bless you.” (End of quote.)
I am also sharing the comment of Luz de Maria on the above message. She noted:
“Brothers and sisters, let us prepare!... Let us be faithful to Our King and Lord Jesus Christ, not forgetting Our Queen and Mother as well as St. Michael the Archangel and His Heavenly Legions.”
She also recalled previous messags she had received from Heaven in regard to the Antichrist.
Our Lord Jesus Christ told here on Oct. 21, 2011:
“Humanity is waiting for a being who will say: ‘I am the Antichrist’ and proclaim himself to be the antichrist. You are waiting for him to appear doing wonders, but he is already performing wonders little by little by means of all modern methods such as technology, misused science, nuclear energy, plans for destroying the planet and altering human biology. He has used powerful governments to create his networks and strategies to manipulate the masses, bringing them closer to war the whole time. His greatest appearance has been in carrying out his plan to evict Me from all places and to close My churches. The next strategy will be to close My Sanctuaries and the places of My Blessed Mother’s apparitions."
St. Michael n Nov. 10, 2022:
“I see so many human beings running after the Antichrist, not knowing Our King and Lord Jesus Christ, ignoring the fact that Our King and Lord Jesus Christ worked miracles and did not brag about them, but on the contrary, went away quickly.
“What is different about the Antichrist is that he will announce the supposed miracles that he will do. You know full well that they will not be miracles, but works of evil: he will use demons to make it appear that he has raised someone from the dead.
“It is therefore urgent that you knowour King and Lord Jesus Christ directly from Holy Scripture, so that you would recognize Him and not be deceived.”
Luz de Maria then quoted John 16:33”
Brothers and sisters, let us be certain of God’s Word: “I have told you these things that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But be of good cheer: I have overcome the world."
