Three Days of Darkness (2) – Prophecies of the saints

AM+DG

3-days-of-darkness

 God has also warned us about the Three Days of Darkness through his visionaries and chosen ones.  The well-known and honoured Saints who have received these messages include St Anna Maria Taigi, Sr. Marie- Julie Jahenny, Blessed Elizabeth Canori Mora , and St Padre Pio. Some of these go back to early 1i800’s.

Bl. Anna Maria Taigi (29 May 1769 – 9 June 1837)
Bl Anna Maria Taigi

“There shall come over the whole earth an intense darkness lasting three days and three nights. Nothing will be visible, and the air will be laden with pestilence which will claim mainly, but not only, the enemies of religion.

On this terrible occasion so many of these wicked men, enemies of His Church, and of God, shall be killed by this divine scourge, that their corpses round Rome will be as numerous as the fish, which a recent inundation of the Tiber had carries into the city. All the enemies of the Church, secret as well as known, will perish over the earth during that universal darkness, with the exception of a few, whom God will soon convert. The air shall be infected by demons, who will appear under all sorts of visible forms.”

As her vision continued,

“It will be impossible to use any man-made lighting during this darkness, except blessed candles. He, who out of curiosity, opens his window to look out, or leaves his home, will fall dead on the spot. During these three days, people should remain in their homes, pray the Rosary and beg God for mercy.”

Main points in her prophecy regarding the 3 days of darkness

  • Occur at or near a time of wars and revolutions.
  • Will last three days
  • Earth “covered in an intense darkness”
  • Nothing can be seen”
  • Air “laden with pestilence”
  • Both enemies of the Faith and the Faithful will die during this time.
  • The only light that will shine is “blessed candles”.
  • Those who leave their homes will “fall dead on the spot”.
    All enemies will perish.
  • The air shall be infested with demons who will appear under all sorts of hideous forms.

Marie-Julie Jahenny, “The Breton Stigmatist” (1850–1941), marie-julie Jahenny

One of the most famous prophecies of Marie-Julie Jahenny is the Three Days of Darkness.

Jahenny also described a Two Day period of Darkness that would occur about a month before the Three Days of Darkness. She said that it would occur on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

She said that these three days would be a time of great suffering for the world. The sun would be darkened, the moon would turn to blood, and there would be widespread chaos and destruction.

Marie-Julie Jahenny also predicted that Russia would play a major role in the Three Days of Darkness. She said that Russia would be the source of the chastisement, and that it would be a time of great persecution for the Catholic Church.

She also predicted:

The darkness would be so complete that it would be impossible to see even your own hand in front of your face. The air would be filled with a foul odor, and there would be a great deal of suffering and death. Only those who had prayed and prepared for the event would be spared. After the three days, the sun would return and the world would be reborn.

Some of her specific prophecies:

 Our Lady said: “The Earth will be covered in darkness, and Hell will be loosed on Earth. The thunder and lightning will cause those who have no faith or trust in my Power, to die of fear. During these three days of terrifying darkness, no windows must be opened, because no one will be able to see the earth and the terrible color it will have in those days of punishment without dying at once…The sky will be on fire, the earth will split… During these three days of darkness let the blessed candle be lighted everywhere, no other light will shine… (Page 44) (September 20, 1882 )

 “No one outside a shelter… will survive. The earth will shake as at the judgment and fear will be great. Yes, We will listen to the prayers of your friends, not one will perish. We will need them to publish the glory of the cross. (Page 44) ) (December 8, 1882)

“The candles of blessed wax alone will give light during this horrible darkness. One candle alone will be enough for the duration of this night of Hell…In the homes of the wicked and blasphemers these candles will give no light.” (Page 45)

 “My children mind my words … In these days of mourning, there will be another earthquake as strong as many others, less strong than in many other places. Everything will shake except the piece of furniture on which the blessed candle is burning. This will not shake. You will all gather around the crucifix and my blessed picture. This is what will keep away this terror.” “During this darkness the devils and the wicked will take on the most hideous shapesred clouds like blood will move across the sky. The crash of thunder will shake the earth and sinister lightning will streak the heavens out of season, the earth will be shaken to its foundations, the sea will rise, its roaring waves will spread over the Continent…”

Always keep close your objects of protection, your blessed candles, your medals and other objects from which flow all the blessings of Heaven, blessings of protection, blessings of all heavenly favors, blessings that keep far (from you) the cries of Satan running through the air and the earth, blessings that will calm the storm unleashed by the Luciferian voices.

“…group around, with the crucifix and my blessed image. This is what shall take fear away from you, as these days will cause many deaths. …those who make me well served and invoke me, and that will keep in their homes my blessed image, I will keep safely all that belongs to them. During these three days, I will protect their cattle from starvation. I will keep because them because there must not be a single door ajar. The hungry animals shall be satisfied by me, without any food.”

The Lord says: “I will soon arise in all the resplendence of My Justice. I will overturn the earth. I will thunder strike the guilty soul.” My little souls, amidst that deluge of terror, you will carry My Cross, were it to be very small or big!” (Revelation to Marie-Julie Jahenny on January 17, 1922)

St Padre Pio: (18871968)

index
St Padre Pio

Keep your windows well covered. Do not look out. Light a blessed candle, which will suffice for many days. Pray the rosary. Read spiritual books. Make acts of Spiritual Communion, also acts of love, which are so pleasing to Us. Pray with outstretched arms, or prostrate on the ground, in order that many souls may be saved. Do not go outside the house. Provide yourself with sufficient food. The powers of nature shall be moved and a rain of fire shall make people tremble with fear. Have courage! I am in the midst of you. (January 26, 1950. Padre Pio)

Blessed Elizabeth Canori Mora (1774-1825)St Elizabert Canori Mora

Thanks to her confessor, her revelations were preserved in hundreds of pages of her own writings. Today, the Trinitarian Fathers at San Carlino, Rome hold her manuscripts for safekeeping in their archives. Elizabeth Canori Mora was beatified in 1994.

Some of her prophecies re the 3 days of darkness are as follows:

  • The sky took on a morbid blue color which terrified everyone who looked at it. A dark wind blew everywhere. An impassioned and mournful shrieking filled the air, like the terrible roar of a fierce lion, and resounded all over the earth in blood curdling echoes.
  • All men and animals brimmed with terror. The entire world convulsed and everyone pitilessly slaughtered one another…
  • “When this bloody fight will arrive, the vengeful hand of God will weigh upon these fated ones and with His omnipotence He will chastise the proud for their rashness and shameless insolence. God will use the powers of darkness to exterminate these sectarian, iniquitous and criminal men, who plot to eradicate the Catholic Church, our Holy Mother, by tearing Her up by Her deepest roots, and casting Her on the ground.

Prophecy of France: “the first to be wounded, torn, persecuted”

AM+DG

 

“The storm will break over

France where I wanted to show the prodigies of My

Divine Heart and unveil its secrets. My children, France

will be the “first to be wounded, torn, persecuted.”

( Marie-Julie Jahenny, June 1882)

France is the eldest daughter of the Church and Jesus has a special Love for her.  She was chosen to reveal the treasures of His most Sacred Heart to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque.  Another special saint  – St Catherine Laboure from France was chosen to bring to the world the Miraculous Medal.

The title ofeldest daughter of the Church’ stems from the fact that France was the first entirely Christian nation. This occurred after the conversion of King Clovis in the 6th century. Her status as ‘daughter of the Church’ was due to the unique status of Frankish kings being anointed and crowned by bishops, which was not a standard thing for a barbaric king back then.

Notre Dame is the icon of Christendom. It is 800 years old and took 200 years to build. It was the pride of the French nation and all its people; regardless of whether or not they were Catholic. Indeed it symbolised the historic beauty, and timeless treasure that is the Church itself.

The name, Notre Dame, means “Our Lady”. Our Lady is the Mother of the Church. The tragic fire was not only an attack on the Church but on our Blessed Mother. The demise of the cathedral of Notre Dame is symbolic of the Church being attacked and falling into ruins. Our Lady-  “Notre Dame” – is asking us to take notice of the destruction of the Church – the Mystical Body of her Son.

The fact that it happened during Holy Week is especially symbolic.  Jesus was betrayed, falsely accused, scourged, mocked, persecuted, suffered, attacked, mocked, stripped and crucified. This is happening to the Mystical Body of Christ today, once again.

The symbolism inherent in the destruction of Notre Dame gives us much to meditate upon:

  • the hierarchical structure, with its priests and bishops; toppling
  • the teachings of Christ which are being reinterpreted – marriage and sexuality; conversion versus all religions lead us to God;
  • the inhabitants of France that once possessed this beautiful church, helplessly knelt outside on their knees in prayer and solemnity; watching the fire destroy their most precious possession, moved to tears
  • special treasures were saved – the Blessed Sacrament; the high altar; the crown of thorns, the Cross; the medieval statue of the Madonna and Child; the Rose stained-glass window, the organ and many precious pieces of art.

 

 

 

 

 

  • there was a brave priest, who ignored the danger, who ran into the midst of the fiery destruction and saved what was precious and holy.
  • The spire, which rose high into the heavens – is no more. The building is largely destroyed. Similarly, the teachings, liturgy and prayer have been attacked so that these holy things can no more reach to the heavens.

We will need many brave priests such as Fr. Fournier, in the future. In fact we must pray for all the brave priests who are persecuted because they stand up for the true teachings of the Church and its true (spiritual) treasures

The gates of hell will not prevail. The church in the future will be a much smaller church, but the true teachings and liturgy that give praise and honour to God will be preserved.

 To conclude- an excerpt from “ The fire of Notre Dame is a “religious” event (English translation from the French):

“ Notre Dame de Paris was above all an expression of the love of a faithful people for their God and for the Mother of God, an immense sign rising in the heart of the city. How could she remain standing except as an empty shell, if love should fail? Is not this what God meant to men by letting this tragedy happen?”

Prophecies for the Church TODAY – in light of francis’ recent comments.

+AMDG+

Prophecy of Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich : (on Communion for divorced/remarried?)

April 12, 1820 “I had another vision of the great tribulation. It seems to me that a concession was demanded from the clergy which could not be granted. I saw many older priests, especially one, who wept bitterly. A few younger ones were also weeping. But others, and the lukewarm among them, readily did what was demanded. It was as if people were splitting into two camps…”

Comments ( by DL and RS):

Could this prophecy have something to do with admitting divorced/remarried to Holy Communion?  (Bergoglio: “I can say yes. Period.”)

It seems to fit.  I am sure there are many priests (and faithful) who are crying bitterly!

It also seems to tie right in with prophecies of the schism –“people splitting into two camps…”

This definitely is a concession that cannot be granted. If you do not turn from mortal sin, you cannot receive Christ in the Eucharist and as a priest, you cannot give Him. The very thought continues to make me feel sick and grieved.

Other relevant prophecies:

Pope St. Leo the Great (400-461)  “He that sees another in error, and endeavors not to correct it, testifies himself to be in error.”

Pope St. Felix III (†492)
Not to oppose error, is to approve it, and not to defend truth is to suppress it, and indeed to neglect to confound evil men, when we can do it, is no less a sin than to encourage them.”

Pope Pius IX (1792-1878) “There will come a great prodigy, which will fill the world with awe. But this prodigy will be preceded by the triumph of a revolution during which the Church will go through ordeals that are beyond description.” “Liberal Catholics are the worst enemies of the Church.”

Eugene Cardinal Pacelli (the future Pope Pius XII) in 1931: “I am worried by the Blessed Virgin’s messages to Lucy of Fatima. This persistence of Mary about the dangers which menace the Church is a Divine warning against the suicide of altering the Faith, in Her liturgy, Her theology and Her soul...I hear all around me innovators who wish to dismantle the Sacred Chapel, destroy the universal flame of the true Faith of the Church, reject Her ornaments and make Her feel remorse for Her historical past.”… “A day will come when the civilized world will deny its God, when the Church will doubt as Peter doubted. She will be tempted to believe that man has become God. …”

Our Lady of Good Success: ...“The secular clergy will leave much to be desired because priests will become careless in their sacred duties. … How the Church will suffer during this dark night! Lacking a prelate and a father (Bishop of Rome/Pope) to guide them …many priests will lose their spirit, placing their souls in great danger.”

Our Lady of LaSalette  (19 September, 1846) “The Church will be in eclipse…. Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of the Antichrist.”-

St. Antony of Egypt (251-356) “Men will surrender to the spirit of the age. They will say that if they had lived in our day, faith would be simple and easy. But in their day, they will say, things are complex; the Church must be brought up to date and made meaningful to the day’s problems. When the Church and the World are one, then those days are at hand. Because our Divine Master placed a barrier between His things and the things of the world.”

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) It is absurd for a heretic to say that he believes in Jesus Christ. To believe in a person is to give our full consent to his word and to all he teaches. True faith, therefore, is absolute belief in Jesus Christ and in all He taught. Hence, he who does not adhere to everything Jesus Christ has prescribed for our salvation does not have any more of the Doctrine of Jesus Christ than the pagans, Jews and Mohammedans.”

St. Francis of Paola (1416-1507)    “During this unhappy period there will be laxity in divine and human precepts. Discipline will suffer. The Holy Canons will be completely disregarded and the clergy will not respect the laws of the Church. The Holy Canons and religious dogmas are clouded by senseless questions and elaborate arguments. As a result, no principle at all, however holy, authentic, ancient, and certain it may be, will not remain free of censure, criticism, false interpretations, modifications and delamination by man.

Bl Anne Catherine Emmerich “…Among the strangest things that I saw, were long processions of bishops. Their thoughts and utterances were made known to me through images issuing from their mouths. Their faults towards religion were shown by external deformities. A few had only a body, with a dark cloud of fog instead of a head. Others had only a head, their bodies and hearts were like thick vapors. Some were lame; others were paralytics; others were asleep or staggering.”

“I saw what I believe to be nearly all the bishops of the world, but only a small number were perfectly sound…”

“Then I saw that everything that pertained to Protestantism was gradually gaining the upper hand, and the Catholic religion fell into complete decadence…”

 La Salette:  Mélanie Calvat (1831-1904)  Our Lady of LaSalette declared to Melanie: “The Church will be in eclipse.” (“Eclipse” means hidden; covered up; seeming to disappear. The Holy Scriptures say: “Where there is Peter, there is the Church.” Melanie understood that Peter would be hidden along with the Church, and that his “eclipse” would be a prelude to the disappearance of the Mass. )

For, in commenting on this part of the secret, Melanie said to the French Abbot Combe, “The Church will be eclipsed. At first, we will not know which is the true pope. Then secondly, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass will cease to be offered in churches and houses; it will be such that, for a time, there will not be public services any more. But I see that the Holy Sacrifice has not really ceased: it will be offered in barns, in alcoves, in caves, and underground.” Abbot Combe: “The Secret of Melanie and the Actual Crisis”, Rome, 1906, p.137.

Marie-Julie Jahenny (1850-1941) Stigmatist   29th March, 1879 “The abandoned church will be without its supreme Head who governs and directs it1; For quite a long time the Church must be deprived of all prayer, all offices; exiled from God and the Saints. They also intend to remove all Crucifixes and statues of the Saints from all the shrines and throw them in a profane place to break them with joy.”   (1This could refer to the resignation of Benedict )

27 November 27, 1902; 10 May 10, 1904   “I give you a WARNING. The disciples who are not of My Gospel are now working hard to remake according to their ideas and under the influence of the enemy of Souls a MASS that contains words that are ODIOUS in my sight. When the fatal hour arrives when the faith of my priests is put to the test, it will be (these texts) that will be celebrated in this second period. [This does not refer to Novus Ordo because this comes at a time of persecution according to the next statement below.]

The First period is the one of my priesthood which exists since Me. The second is the one of the persecution when the enemies of the Faith and of Holy Religion will impose their formulas in the book of the second celebration. These infamous spirits are those who crucified Me and are awaiting the kingdom of the NEW MESSIAH!”

St. Faustina  Stigmatist  December 17, 1936  from St. Faustina’s Diary #823: 17th December, [1936].  “ I have offered this day for priests.  I have suffered more today than ever before, both interiorly and exteriorly.  I did not know it was possible to suffer so much in one day.  I tried to make a Holy Hour, in the course of which my spirit had a taste of the bitterness of the Garden of Gethsemane.  I am fighting alone, supported by His arm, against all the difficulties that face me like unassailable walls.  But I trust in the power of his name and I fear nothing.

( Note that 17 December 1936 is the birthday of Jorge Bergoglio. Was St. Faustina suffering so much for him – a priest heading for the greatest apostasy?)
