  • I backslid on my faith last year and came back properly April 2020 confessed and gave up t.v, social media etc


    My worry is that Jesus has returned in secret
    Many people are having dreams he came back January

    I've relooked at scripture and it all points to him coming back in secret

    It also talks about there being no sacrifice for three years Hosea 3, Daniel 12, that people will be marked with 666 during the anti Christ reign - so how does that work with confession

    It talks about the day of the lord being marked with a blood moon and the sign appearing in the heavens ( the sky) we are seeing lots of strange skies at the moment and the sun is much brighter

    Katherine Emmerich even talks about the sacrifice being taken away in mass and the host not rising. now doesn't that go hand in hand with sin?

    Please don't have a go at me for posting this again. But it's eating me alive and having an impact on my family, the thought of going to hell for all eternity ( I know it's my fault for not being ready)

    But I feel like my years of rosaries have been in vain

    Any help, advice support appreciated.

  • Then if any man shall say to you: Lo here is Christ, or there, do not believe him. [24] For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect. [25] Behold I have told it to you, beforehand.
    [26] If therefore they shall say to you: Behold he is in the desert, go ye not out: Behold he is in the closets, believe it not. [27] For as lightning cometh out of the east, and appeareth even into the west: so shall the coming of the Son of man be.
    Doesn't sound like a secret to me.

  • We’ve responded to you before.  Both Scripture and unanimous Tradition hold that the Second Coming will coincide with the end of the world and that it’ll be known by all and apparent to all ... not secret.  But despite that you refuse to let go of your own private interpretation.  This comes from a deep narcissism on your part.  Stop worrying about your fate and be concerned instead about loving God and pleasing Him, and your fate will simply take care of itself.  Love God and tell Him you accept whatever He wills for you.  Only then will you have any peace.  But if all you care about is whether you’ll be saved, since none of us can know that, then you will end up in an asylum.

    Talk to God and tell Him:  “I love You and want to please You.  If it pleases You to condemn me, then I accept Your decision and glorify Your Justice and Your Goodness.  Even if I am condemned, I ask only that You let me love You for all eternity.”

  • I would suggest "Interior Castle" to read.  If you feel aridity or what is none as darkness of soul. Glories of Mary, Mystical City of God volume 4.

  • What Ladislaus said.

    You don't need to be a theologian to check in with your Sensus Catholicus and know that Jesus Christ will not be hidden when He returns.  Not only does the Church teach that His return will be quite public, ahem, but reason should also tell you that there would be no logic to His secrecy.  

    Just kind of a side point, not totally on topic, but tangential:  Your life may be different, and the lives of others on this forum -- from mine.  But there has not been a single instance of God sending me any kind of a message about me or my life that has been delivered subtly.  It's usually a very visible Two By Four.

    Do you have a medical condition that you are not taking care of? I know personally 2 cases of people with uncontrolled diabetes (don't remember the type), that showed extreme worries and dispair as the condition progressed.

  • You should stop reading the Scriptures!   

    Your ONLY reading material should be strictly Catholic (Pre Vat. II).   Pray through the true Mass daily.   Scriptures abound therein with sound instruction.  Your ONLY prayers should be those in your Missal where they abound.   You are choosing to put yourself at risk if you indulge in private interpretation.  The fruits speak for themselves = you fear the loss of your sanity.  





    "In His wisdom," says St. Gregory, "almighty God preferred rather to bring good out of evil than never allow evil to occur."

  • Hmm. Your actions and thoughts sound somewhat familiar to myself.

    Shortly after my conversion from a wicked life, I ran in to the Dimond brothers material.  That began my obsession with end times prophecy and private revelations in addition to fostering the vice of scrupulosity. I have felt that I was going to lose my mind on several occasions, the last being between January and March of this year. It seems you have an obsessive compulsive disorder, as I do.

    My recommendation to you would be to STOP reading and researching private revelations and interpretations concerning the End Times and Coming of Christ, Fewness of the Saved. These topics can studied by people with a stable mind. You do not have a stable mind and you must realize that.

    The best way to banish your servile fear is to frequently meditate on the mercy of God. Find meditations on the Passion of Christ from traditional authors (I can link you to some). Read spiritual authors such as St. Francis de Sales, Louis of Blois, Father St. Jure and Pierre Claude de la Colombiere and some of St. Alphonsus’ works. I can not stress the importance of mental prayer enough. Prayer is the key to salvation. You must pray.

    I don’t know what your beliefs are (Indult, SSPX, Resistance, Sede), but of course, I recommend contacting a valid, Catholic sedevacantist priest and telling him your struggles. You must obey what he tells you, despite all your fears and tormenting anxieties and doubts. I can promise you that if you begin to a obey him you will find relief. And of course, you must receive the Blessed Sacrament, frequently.

    I know what you are going through in your mind. It is truly a cross to bear. You will be in my prayers.

    I'm personally not sede, but honestly, either way, finding a good traditional priest to submit yourself to, whether it be sede or SSPX or whatever, would be absolutely superior to what you're currently doing.

  • Take the Catholic medicinal herb, St. John’s Wort (500mg) dosage daily.

    That will take the edge off your nerves and allow you to focus.

    This herb was specifically prescribed by the French Catholic mystic Marie Julie Jahenny for these times.
    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi

  • As others have said, find a good traditional priest who you can trust. Pay close attention to what Colin wrote, especially in relation to what he says about the importance of mental prayer. Start with 15 minutes of mental prayer (if you haven't already). 

    In addition to the warnings that other users have made about the dangers of private interpretation, I add that you should not give so much importance to dreams. 

    I recommend watching this video on what St. John of the Cross (Doctor of the Church) had to say about dreams:








    Also, here is what Fr. Hesse had to say about trying to figure out when the Last Judgement is going to happen:

    "Stay in the life of grace, and you don't have to be afraid of the Last Punishment, the Third World War, the doom that is near - what do you care? If you're in the life of grace, you don't care. If you're in the life of grace, all you need to think about is to stay in the life of grace, to be able to escape Hell when you die and when you receive your personal judgement.

    Don't waste your time with studying when the Last Judgement is going to take place. Not even Our Lady knows that! Why would you know? God is not going to tell you, promise."
