Here is some info on Du Pont's book, Catholic Prophey, The Coming Chastisement.

I don't really have a definitive opinion myself.  I'm open to whatever God wills.  I do lean towards the opinion that the antichrist is at hand from the evidence I have seen from various sources, however.

This video is cued up to Father Jenkins talking about the Du Pont book:

Couldn't read all of this but it looked interesting:

This is a quote I found from doing a key word search that comes from Father Kramer's book The Mystery of Iniquity:
https://fatima.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/The-Mystery-of-Iniquity.pdf
“The victory of the Heart of Mary will be the victory over the
Antichrist” — St. John Eudes. This is the Fatima Secret manifested in the
symbolic apparition of Knock.

I agree, DL.  The evidence/prophecies are overwhelmingly in favor of a period of peace between now and the real antichrist.  If you add to these prophecies the points which the Fathers of the Church agree on, and it's near absolute certainty.  
.
I think the St John Eudes quote is either 1) misunderstood or 2) wrong.  Scripture is very clear that the antichrist will be defeated by Christ.  Prophecies say that Our Lady will defeat Satan and his minions (Freemasons).  How do we reconcile this with St John Eude’s quote?  Simply, that our present times of Fɾҽҽmαsσɳɾყ are the “end times” but not the END time.  
.
We are nearing the end of the 5th age, when Our Lady will have Her victory.  The time from the end of the 5th age (ie now), til the 6th age (period of peace), til the 7th (antichrist) is VERY short.  
.
The antichrist age is a continuation of our age, so St John is correct, in a sense.  Even Malachi Martin said that during the reign of JPII, we are living in an age filled with the “spirit” of antichrist, even if he is not present yet. 

I think Fr Jenkins got bad info.  I’ve read the DuPont book at least 5x (it’s very short).  I don’t remember him mentioning the 1,000 yrs much, if at all.  90% of the book is prophecy; Yves doesn’t write much personally at all. 

There’s no doubt that the V2 papal claimants mirror the false high priests in Maccabees. But the Maccabee period came prior to the triumph of Our Lord.  Now we have these false popes prior to Our Lady’s triumph.

" All the holy Fathers (16) agree that after the death of antichrist the whole world will be converted, and although some of them assert that the world will last but a few days after his death, while others say a few months, some authorities insist that it will continue to exist many years after. St. Catherine of Siena, St. Vincent Ferrer, St. Francis of Paula and a number of other saints have predicted this ultimate universal conversion. (16) . Dionysius the Carthusian in cap. 3, Epist. 1 adTher.; Cornelius a Lapide in cap. 2, Epist. ad Rom. vers. 15. The Admirable Heart of Mary pg 319

Following canonized scripture, more specifically the Apostle St. Paul (2 Thess 2), Our Lord Jesus Christ shall destroy Antichrist with the brightness of his coming.

As for Fr. Kramer’s Bennyvacantist thesis, it’s a moot point by his own reasoning.  He makes a strong case for the Bellarmine position regarding a heretical pope (vs. Siscoe and Salza) but that case applies equally to Ratzinger.  He refers to the Conciliar Church as a Masonic Antichurch.  No disagreement there.  But Ratzinger was the head of this heretical Antichurch.

You’re very close, Fr. Kramer ... but Bennyvacantism falls short.  All of the papal claimants since J23 have been imposters.  It is not possible for Ratzinger to have been the head of a Masonic Antichurch and the Catholic pope at the same time.

This is the one difficulty I'm having with what is presented by Dupont. I think it's great that so many prophecies speak of this restoration, but, how is it that we get this "Holy Pope" who is purportedly in exile if there is no valid Pope? Edit: Because, recall, the prophecy of Anna Maria Taigi speaks of a light falling upon a Cardinal who is to become the Holy Pope after the Chastisement, therefore, there have to still be valid Cardinals, which, if I recall, is not what the sedevacantist position believes. Either B16 is, somehow, the Pope and Bennyvacantism is correct (which would explain, somewhat providentially, why he hasn't yet kicked the bucket); or, the Siri thesis is correct and there's a secret Pope somewhere with a handful of secret Cardinals waiting for their moment.

One thing that really supports, in my view, the Bennyvacantist reading of Dupont is that none of these prophecies speak of a line of Antipopes, but several speak of a single Antipope. If that is the case, B16 is the Pope, then quite obviously Francis is that prophesied Antipope who is supposed to precede the Chastisement and will die in Rome by an attack of the Muslims. Further, it's also interesting to note that the Pope in exile is purported to flee to the Westphalian area of Europe (Germany), which would make sense since B16 is German.

Otherwise, the prophesies are not going to come true because we are too far gone and God is just letting everything End with Antichrist just around the corner.

Well, if you're a sedeprivationist, then the Cardinals would still retain the power of designation, which is a material aspect of the office.  So there are still Cardinals.

Indeed. Which kind of tells me that the office of the Pope still resides with B16 rather than Francis the destroyer, who clearly fits the bill of the prophesied Antipope.
