Whenever I think about the growing # of people who mock catholicism, and who say that "the old ways are gone" I remember this prophecy from St. Francis Of Paola:
f 46.9 "The sixth period of the Church will begin with the
powerful Monarch and the Holy Pontiff, as mentioned previ-
ously, and it will last until the revelation of Antichrist. In this
period, God will console His Holy Church for the affliction
and great tribulation which she has endured during the fifth
period. All nations will become Catholic. Vocations will be
abundant as never before, and all men will seek only the
Kingdom of God and His justice. Men will live in peace, and
this will be granted because people will make their peace with
God. They will live under the protection of the Great Mon-
arch and his successors.
|f 46. 10 "During the fifth period, we saw only calamities and
devastation; oppression of Catholics by tyrants and heretics;
executions of Kings, and cօռspιʀαcιҽs to set up republics.
But, by the Hand of God Almighty, there occurs so wondrous
a change during the sixth period that no one can humanly
visualize it.
