Blessed Anna-Maria Taigi, Padre Pio, Elizabeth Canori-Mora, Rosa-Colomba Asdente, Palma d'Oria, in Italy; Father Nectou, in Belgium; St. Hildegard, in Germany; Pere Lamy, Marie Baourdi, Marie Martel and Marie-Julie Jahenny, in France(and this list is not exhaustive) all predicted a chastisement in the form of three days of darkness.<br /><br />Padre Pio and other Catholics eminent for sanctity, have for centuries prophesied the dreadful coming chastisement of the<br />Three Days of Darkness; where at least half to three quarters of the world's population will be killed by God's Just Wrath.<br /><br />The Church does not oblige us to believe in any particular prophecy as a matter of faith [de fide], but we are indeed obliged to believe that prophecies may be made even in our own times, for this is in the Gospel [Evangelium]: the Holy Ghost will speak to many in the Latter Days.<br /><br />Moreover, when an identical prophecy has been made by widely separated people in time and space, when this particular prophecy was accompanied by other predictions which have already come to pass, and when the holiness of the mystics in question has been recognized by the Church, we would be foolish indeed not to believe that the prophecy must come to pass. <br /><br />Were Pio and these other mystics "puffed up with pride"? Or could it be that it is you who are puffed up with pride?<br /><br />You write, "I love BVM as much as the next Catholic, but to me kind mommies don't tell scary stories to her children. I also believe the She so full of grace would not use the frightening images in order to bring people closer to Son."<br /><br />But you are assuming that chastisement is a BAD thing. Is it? Not according to God's Word (which you are obviously unfamilar with). For example, in Hebrews 12: 6-7, we read, "..For what 'son' is there whom his father does not discipline? If you are without discipline, in which all have shared, you are not sons but bastards."<br /><br />The people of Nineveh were threatened with chastisement but repented in sackloth and ashes. And the chastisement did not come. The choice was theirs as it is ours.<br /><br />Understand? Chastisement is used by God to bring His people back to Him. It is the act of a Loving Father. For to spare the rod is to spoil the child.Paul Anthony Melansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455719838570381999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-39714585707673145742010-12-20T19:21:08.073-08:002010-12-20T19:21:08.073-08:00Let me point you to an image that expresses the si...Let me point you to an image that expresses the situation of too many chosen souls. It's a newsletter from the Sisters of St. Joseph, Boston http://www.csjboston.org/su-Dec-8-2010.pdf <br /><br />Look at the liturgical dancers! Google the dance group and you'll find it's run by a women who calls herself a "community ordained priest." (Kathleen Henry, http://www.writersroomofboston.org/members.html) <br /><br />It is hard to believe how fast and how far the Church has fallen in the last 50 years.

as Padre Pio said;
"...Regarding Chastisement.<br /><br />as Padre Pio said;<br />"Pray, Hope, don't worry"<br /><br /> I love BVM as much as the next Catholic, but to me kind mommies don't tell scary stories to her children. I also believe the She so full of grace would not use the frightening images in order to bring people closer to Son. <br /><br />I think it pride that leads come to believe they have the 'inside track' on salvation or who believe they are 'in the know' on God's will for his world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-28058855947533547412010-12-20T18:31:34.930-08:002010-12-20T18:31:34.930-08:00Jerry has left another comment at this Blog in an ...Jerry has left another comment at this Blog in an attempt to convince others that the Akita apparition is a fraud. Akita has been approved by the Church. As this link explains:<br /><br />http://www.freerepublic.com/<br />focus/news/2222685/posts<br /><br />The Devil works to sow division within the Church. And often (sadly) there are Catholics all too willing to assist him in his work. <br /><br />Pope Benedict XVI is not a "deceiver" as Jerry has suggested at another Blog. The Vicar of Christ is a shining example of holiness of life as well as a great defender of the faith. <br /><br />The Akita message warned that the Devil would infiltrate the Church. And so he has. With the help of certain individuals who have a hatred for the Holy Father and their own twisted agenda.Paul Anthony Melansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08455719838570381999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-75436409544861767072010-12-20T13:54:02.363-08:002010-12-20T13:54:02.363-08:00Jesus told Faustina that those who refuse to pass ...Jesus told Faustina that those who refuse to pass through the door of his Mercy will pass through the door of His Justice. I don't think any Catholic should treat that lightly. God chastised His people in the Old Testament. What would make someone believe that He cannot do so now? Jesus warned that the last days would be like the days of Noah and that people would not be prepared for His coming (Matthew 24: 37-40).<br /><br />I wouldn't take this lightly.Wendynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-19352186295824428352010-12-20T12:56:58.053-08:002010-12-20T12:56:58.053-08:00John, I've come across many disgruntled "...John, I've come across many disgruntled "traditional" Catholics who are really no better than dissidents of the liberal stripe. They feel it's their "mission" to correct the Church and her Magisterium and to dictate what constitutes "authentic Catholicism." These joy-less "Catholics" have set themselves up as a substitute magisterium as surely as Curran and other liberal fringe types did in the 60s and 70s (and continue to do).Ted Loiseaunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9695096.post-6452911041419959692010-12-20T07:45:03.437-08:002010-12-20T07:45:03.437-08:00To discount the whole idea of chastisement, one wo...To discount the whole idea of chastisement, one would have to dismiss literally probably hundreds of private revelations and apparition sites, many of which have received the Church's full approbation. <br /><br />To do so would reckless as far as I'm concerned. I DO accept those which have the Church's approval. And no one is going to change my mind.

That is, needless to say, evidence of something gravely wrong in a person's spiritual life. In my opinion, it is strong evidence of the demonic.John Ansleynoreply@blogger.com
