5 Signs of the END TIMES
This is taken from the December 31, 1992 message that the Blessed Virgin Mary
gave to Fr. Gobbi, He received these messages starting in Fatima while praying for
some fallen away Priests, in 1972. The last message was given on 12/31/97. He met
at least once a year with Pope John Paul II and started a movement called the Marian
Movement of Priests, which has both secular and lay people involved. All of the
messages have been compiled into one book. For anyone who is a serious student
of the "End Times", which we are in, and our Mother's role in them this book will lay
out some of the key parts in the book of Revelation and Daniel, plus much more it is
almost 1000 pages. I would get the index to, they are priced very reasonably and can
be bought at www.mmp-usa.net. Telephone 207-398-3375 Fax 207-398-3352
I have added a few comments of my own which I'll denote by >> comment <<.
1) The first sign is the spread of errors, which leads to the loss of faith and to the
great apostasy. From 2nd Thess.;
2:3 Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come
a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
Also from Matthew;
24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
24:6 And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not troubled: for
all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall
be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be
hated of all nations for my name's sake.
24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate
one another. 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
From 2nd Peter;
2:1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be
false teachers among you, who secretly shall bring in damnable heresies, even
denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2:2 And many shall follow their shameful ways; for this reason the way of truth
shall be spoken of as evil. 2:3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with
stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them,
and their destruction has not been sleeping
We are well into this sign with people starting new churches almost everyday.
These many different denominations spread across a wide spectrum from
fairly close to totally lost. One of the biggest stumbling blocks is the real
presence of Jesus in the Eucharist which He instituted at the Last Supper.
The Holy Eucharist in Scripture, Miracles and Prophecy
Another is the role Jesus has chosen for His Mother to fulfill in His plan for
these times. Many leaders within the Catholic Church are trying to water
down these 2 basic pillars of the Church. Another way they work is by
promoting books that have some value book contain heresies there by
subtly giving some credence to false doctrines. God does not change
with the seasons. The God of the Old Testament, which some say is a
myth, is the God of the New Testament, and the God of the 7th millennium.
2) The 2nd sign is the outbreak of wars and fratricidal struggles. This will
lead to the prevalence of violence and hatred and a general slackening off
of charity, while natural catastrophes become more and more frequent.
This is where we are today as we build up to the 3rd World War which will
dwarf the previous 2 world wars in blood shed. From Matt.;
24:6 And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you are not troubled:
for all must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there
hall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
24:8 All these are the
beginning of sorrows.24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
>> I believe we are in this one now and that the first is continuing also. <<
3) The 3rd sign is the bloody persecution of those who remain faithful to
Jesus and to His Gospel and who stand fast in the true faith. From the
Book of Revelation;
13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome
hem: and power was given him over all families, and tongues, and nations.
From Matt.;
24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and you
shall be hated by all nations for my name's sake.
24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and
shall hate one another.
24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a
witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
>> The Gospel is very close to having been preached in the whole world. <<
4) The 4th sign is the horrible sacrilege which is the antichrist coming and
entering into the Temple of God and sitting on his throne and having himself
adored as God. >> I believe this will happen at St. Peter's in Rome. <<
From 2nd Thess.;
2:4 Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped;
so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.
2:9 Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and
lying wonders, 2:10 And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish;
because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
From Daniel;
12:9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words are closed up and sealed till the
time of the end. 12:10 Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried; but the
wicked shall do wickedly: and none of the wicked shall understand; but the wise
shall understand. 12:11 And from the time that the daily sacrifice shall be
taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate set up, there shall be a thousand
two hundred and ninety days. 12:12 Blessed is he that waits, and comes to the thousand
three hundred and five and thirty days.
The Holy Mass is the Sacrifice, the pure oblation that is offered to the Lord from the
rising of the sun to its going down. The Sacrifice of the Mass renews what Jesus
accomplished on Calvary. By accepting the Protestant doctrine, people will say that
the Mass is not a sacrifice but only a sacred meal. And thus the celebration of the
Holy Mass will be suppressed for about 1290 days.
5) The fifth sign consists of extraordinary phenomena, which will occur in the skies.
Matt. 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the
stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
The Miracle of the Sun, from Fatima, Portugal on 10/13/1917 was a sign to show
you that you are entering the times when this will be fulfilled.
Matt. 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the
tribes of the earth mourn,
We will see the Cross up in the sky and the people will tremble; then from Matt. 30;
and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
24:32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves,
you know that summer is nigh:
24:33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
Also the month before on Nov. 22, 1992 feast of the solemnity of Christ the King where
our Mother warned about the fulfillment of Zechariah 13.7-9 where it talks about 2/3 of
the people dieing, this is also foretold by Gianna Sullivan and Christina Gallhager.
13:8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, says the LORD, two parts therein shall be
cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. 13:9 And I will bring the third part through
he fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call
on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say,
The LORD is my God.
