"...the world will be completely covered in the darkness of the denial of God.."

So few have time for God in our sin-sick, materialistic society.  While stores, restaurants and sports stadiums are filled to capacity, our churches are emptying and only a handful spend time in Eucharistic Adoration.  Our Lady told Father Gobbi of the Marian Movement of Priests, "...His Second Coming, beloved children, will be like the first.  As was His birth on this night, so also will be the return of Jesus in glory, before His final coming for the last judgment, the hour of which, however, is still hidden in the secrets of the Father.  The world will be completely covered in the darkness of the denial of God, of its obstinate rejection of Him and of rebellion against His law of love.  The coldness of hatred will still cause the roadways of this world to be deserted.  Almost no one will be ready to receive Him...

The great ones will not even remember Him, the rich will close their doors on Him, while His own will be too busy with seeking and affirming themselves.  'When the Son of Man comes, will He still find faith on the earth?'  He will come suddenly and the world will not be ready for His coming.  He will come for a judgment for which man will find himself unprepared.  He will come to establish His kingdom in the world, after having defeated and annihilated His enemies."

Are we ready to receive the Lord Jesus?  Are we prepared for what is coming?  It was St. Louis de Montfort who said, "The reign of the Father's Mission was complete with the deluge of the flood; the reign of the Son's Mission was complete with the deluge of Blood on the Cross; the reign of the Holy Spirit's Mission will be complete with the deluge of 'Fire and Love and Justice' in the latter days."

Remember the warning of Akita?
