  • From Catholic Prophecy:

    “I saw also the relationship between the two popes. . . I saw how baleful would be the conse­quences of this false church. I saw it increase in size ~ heretics of every kind came into the city (of Rome). The local clergy grew lukewarm, and I saw a great darkness. . . Then, the vision seemed to extend on every side.

    Whole Catholic com­munities were being oppressed, harassed, confined, and de­prived of their freedom. I saw many churches close down, great miseries everywhere, wars and bƖσσdshɛd. A wild and ignorant mob took to violent action. But it did not last long.

    Once more I saw that the Church of Peter was un­dermined by a plan evolved by the secret sect, while storms were damaging it. But I saw also that help was coming when distress had reached its peak. I saw again the Blessed Virgin ascend on the Church and spread her mantle [over it]. I saw a Pope who was at once gentle, and very firm… I saw a great renewal, and the Church rose high in the sky.”

    (Yves DuPont Comment):

    “Many prophecies predict an anti-pope and a schism. Many predict war, bƖσσdshɛd, and persecutions right in the Vatican. But also many say that ‘”it will not last long” and that “help will come when everything seems hopeless.”

    ( the above all quoted from pages 60-61)

    Blessed Anna:

    “I saw again the strange big church that was being built there (in Rome). There was nothing holy in it. I saw this just as I saw a movement led by Ecclesiastics to which contributed angels, saints and other Christians. But there (in the strange big church) all the work was being done mechani­cally (i.e. according to set rules and formulae). Everything was being done according to human reason.” (p. 61)
    ...
    “I see the Holy Father in great an­guish. He lives in a palace other than before and he admits only a limited number of friends near him. I fear that the Holy Father will suffer many more trials before he dies. I see that the false church of darkness is making progress, and I see the dreadful influence it has on people. The Holy Father and the Church are verily in so great a distress that one must implore God day and night.” (p. 63)


    Dupont's comment:

    “From this prophecy, it is clear that the true Church will be faithful to the Pope in exile; whereas, the new Pope in Rome will be, in fact, an anti-pope. But, since a number of other prophecies tell us that the true Pope will die in his exile, it follows then that the true Church will be lead­erless for some time. Then, it is not difficult to anticipate what the anti-pope and renegade hierarchy and clergy will say: “See, your so-called Pope is dead; and who can give you a new Pope now? Our cardinals have already elected the new Pope, he is here in Rome.” And, indeed, since the true Church will be completely disorganized, and the faithful Cardinals iso­lated, no new true Pope could be elected, and thus a large number of Catholics will be misled into accepting the leader­ship of the anti-pope. Such a schism could not happen if the Pope followed A. C. Emmerick’s advice “to stay in Rome”. “But”, she said, “the Pope is still attached to the things of the earth.” And, as is said elsewhere, “He will want to save what he thinks can be saved.” In other words, the true Pope, who­ever he is at that time, will use his human judgment and leave Rome, instead of remaining firm in the face of the invaders.” (p.73)

  • I do think its interesting that this prophecy can align perfectly with Pope Benedict and Francis, much to the dismay of those who ascribe to the Sirite thesis and rely on this as an explanation/ assistance to their theory. I can't say I've thought much of Benedict, but a friend of mine- believe it or not, a sede, no less- was right to point out that it seemed that Benedict seemed to be at least trying to bring tradition back to the Church.

    However, I admit, its difficult to read too much into these things, because I might I ask: was Pope Benedict even a real bishop? When one considers the new formula, there is serious doubt. But, then again, who am I? Certainly no theologian; perhaps not even worthy of reading such formula. But, then again, the crisis in our Church demands we be weary of everything that has been promulgated since Vatican II, otherwise, what excuse would I have from staying away from the Novus Ordo Missae, and, technically, placing my soul and that of my family, in danger by ascribing to the principle of Epikea?
