To The Refuges On
Wings of Eagles
"See, I am
sending an angel before you, to guard you on the way and bring you to the place
I have prepared. Be attentive to him and heed his voice. Do not rebel against him,
for he will not forgive your sin. My authority resides in him. If you heed his
voice and carry out all I tell you, I will be an enemy to your enemies and a
foe to your foes."
(Ex 23:20-22)
.
What About
These Refuges?
.
Well, I can tell you that
indeed they exist. I am a member of a group that has been chosen by Our Lord
since 1993 to build and maintain one of His refuges. This refuge is located in
the countryside, as predicted; and is under the spiritual direction of a Roman
Catholic priest. Additionally Our Lord has told our group that when the time
comes, He will carry us on wings of eagles over the chaos and
devastation; and that the Blessed Virgin Mary will oversee the refuge during
the time that we reside there fully-protected. There is a spring on the land,
which Our Lord has told us will have both physical and emotional healing
properties. He told us there will be animals there to tend to as well.
How do I know
unequivocally that it is such a refuge? I don't, and neither do I know unequivocally
that most things exist, or have occurred. With respect to the particular refuge
that I am associated with, there are two primary non-public visionaries that
Our Lord speaks through to guide us. Everyone within the group has experienced
some sort of mystical experience, as we were told we would. Additionally, three
other non-public visionaries and one public visionary have confirmed that it is
to be such a refuge. I have been given many good reasons to believe each of the
above mentioned visionaries.
Additionally with respect to both our group and to visitors to the refuge, several healings and many mystical occurrences have occurred; including my healing as discussed in my testimony, "Ben's Calling".
Years ago with our
agreement to serve, Our Lord told us that our group had been taken out of the
world, and were being put through rigorous training for the times to come. We
continue to exist in the strictest sense by His Divine Providence and our confident
trust therein. Without exception, since such time each of us has lived from
hand to mouth financially. We experience various difficulties in waves which
occur in intervals of every eight weeks or so. He has instructed us to answer
these difficulties, with prayer, fasting, praying the Holy Rosary, attending
the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and receiving Holy Communion, and by praying
while kneeling before the Blessed Sacrament in Adoration.
Without exception, when we
have done so, appropriate remedies have been provided timely from above.
Clearly, the purpose of
the training is to provide the necessary experience to console, to direct and
to train others in the future (1).
HE WILL PROVIDE FOR US !

At the Call To Holiness web site
you will find a writing entitled: Refuges For Our Time. This
writing is written anonymously. It is the only such alleged prophecy that Ron and
I have posted without knowing the source. We posted it after much prayer, and
after receiving a resultant feeling of peace. Notwithstanding these facts, much
of the information contained in this writing, was conveyed previously to our
refuge group, by Our Lord several years before the writing was
provided to me by a friend. Such information contained in the writing coincides
specifically and directly with what Our Lord had told our group years before.
Through certain public
prophets, we have been told, that the homes of certain people will be refuges,
as well. These will serve as refuges for those who can not travel longer
distances and also as temporary stations for those traveling to other refuges.
So, should you rely upon
Ron and I with respect to these prophecies? No, you
should rely upon the Holy Spirit and His gift of Divine Discernment, and Holy
Mother Church.
I mention the above for
one reason. It is information that I have, and the sharing of the knowledge
that such a refuge does exist may provide you increased peace and trust to know
that substance already exists to the promises of Jesus. (NB: please do not make any
further inquiries regarding this refuge, I will not respond. I asked for, and
did receive, Our Lord's permission to divulge this much in advance of
publishing this writing, and I am not at liberty to divulge any additional
information at this time. Our guardian angels will lead us to the nearest
refuge when the time arrives. Our Lord has His refuges located strategically
throughout the world.).
With that in mind let us
turn our attention to what Holy Scripture, the Fathers and Doctors and
contemporary prophets have said in this respect. .
.
Matthew
.
"When you see the
desolating abomination spoken of through Daniel the prophet standing in the
holy place (let the reader understand), then those in Judea must flee to the mountains, a person on the housetop
must not go down to get things out of his house, a person in the field must not
return to get his cloak. Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those
days. Pray that your flight not be in winter or
on the sabbath, for at that time there will be great
tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until now,
nor ever will be. And if those days had not been shortened, no one would be
saved; but for the sake of the elect they will be shortened." (Mt 24:15-22) (Also, see Mk 13:14-19)
St. Luke recorded the
above mentioned discussion of Our Lord differently: "Then
let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside
the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it." . (Lk 21:21) .
.
Isaiah
.
A voice cries: "In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD, make
straight in the desert a highway for our God
Get you up to a high
mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O
Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, fear
not; say to the cities of Judah, "Behold your God!"
He will feed his
flock like a shepherd, he will gather the lambs in his arms, he
will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young
Why do you say, O Jacob,
and speak, O Israel, 'My way is hid from the LORD, and my right is disregarded
by my God'? Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting
God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary, his
understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the
faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength. Even youths
shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run
and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint." (Is
40:3-31)
.
Revelation
.
"Then God's temple in
heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was
seen within his temple; and there were flashes of lightning, voices,
peals of thunder, an earthquake, and heavy hail.
And a great portent
appeared in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, with
the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars; she
was with child and she cried out in her pangs of birth, in anguish for
delivery. And another portent appeared in heaven; behold, a great red dragon,
with seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems upon his heads. His tail
swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth. And the
dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child, that he might
devour her child when she brought it forth; she
brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of
iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne, and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place
prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and
sixty days." (Rv. 11:19-12:6)
"And when the dragon
saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the
woman who brought forth the man child. And there
were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the
desert, unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a
time, from the face of the serpent. And the serpent cast out of his
mouth, after the woman, water, as it were a river: that he might cause her to
be carried away by the river. And the earth helped the woman: and the earth
opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his
mouth." (Rv. 12:13-16)
(NB: the Greek word eremos (which means 'wilderness' or 'desert') was
used in both instances above, but the translator chose to use 'wilderness' in
one place and 'desert' in another.
Comment:
It is a fact that the
authors of the books of the Bible did not break their writings into chapters.
This is a convention added by the Church centuries ago to aid in reference.
Hence, we can gain greater insight as to the meaning of the word 'woman' by
taking this into consideration in reading the last verse of Revelation 11 together
with Revelation 12.
The Blessed Virgin Mary is
the 'New Ark of the Covenant' as we shall discuss in greater detail below.
While the Old Testament ark of the covenant carried the written word of God;
for nine months, the Blessed Virgin carried the Incarnate Word (Jn 1:1-14).
The Old Testament ark of the covenant remains on earth hidden (2 Mc 2:5). It can not possibly be in Heaven. Whereas, the New Ark of the Covenant was assumed body and soul into
Heaven. Therefore, the Ark of the Covenant that St. John saw in Heaven had to be the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of
God.
Furthermore, the Mother of
God has appeared with a crown of stars, and clothed with the sun and with the
moon at her feet (e.g. Our Lady of Guadalupe - image below).
We have additional assurance
that the above passage refers to the Blessed Virgin in that it states "she
brought forth a male child, one who is to rule all the nations with a rod of
iron, but her child was caught up to God and to his throne". Psalm 2:9
confirms that the phrase, "rules with a rod of iron", refers to
Jesus. Additional confirmation is provided in the verbiage, "but her child
was caught up to God and to his throne". This can be no other than Jesus,
the Son of God.
Lastly, note that the
woman wears a crown. Which type of women wear crowns? Queens
and Queen Mothers. In the Davidic kingdoms of the Old Testament, the
Queen Mother was the mother of the King. The principal
role of the Queen Mother was to serve as advocate or intercessor on behalf of
the people of Israel to her son the King. (Refer to
1 Kgs 2:19-20)
The Tribulation is to last
'a week of years' (Dn
9:26-27). The last
half, or roughly 3 1/2 years, represents the duration of the Great Tribulation.
'Time, times and a half', and '1260 days' relate to
such 3 1/2 years.
.
The late
Fr. William G.
Most was one of the world's premier theologians of our time. Fr. Most had this
to say about the woman of Revelation 12:
"Some
features fit the Virgin Mary,
Mother of God. The male child who rules with the iron scepter refers to Psalm
2:9, which speaks of Christ. The child is taken up to the throne of God. Other features fit the Church, and not Mary: the pain
in childbirth.
St. Pius X (Ad diem illum, February 2, 1904: Acta
Sanctae Sedis 36:458-459) wrote: "No one is ignorant of the fact that that woman
signifies the Virgin Mary who, remaining a virgin, brought forth our
Head... So John saw the most Holy Mother of God already enjoying eternal
happiness, and yet laboring from some hidden birth. With what birth? Surely ours, we who, being yet
detained in exile, are still to be brought forth to the perfect love of God and
eternal happiness."
Paul VI, in Signum
Magnum (May 13, 1967), wrote: "The great sign that the Apostle John
saw in heaven, 'a woman clothed with the sun,' is interpreted by the sacred
liturgy, not without foundation, as referring to the most blessed Mary, the
mother of all men by the grace of Christ, the Redeemer."
Bernard J. Le Frois, S.V.D., in a remarkable study, The Woman
Clothed with the Sun (Orbis Catholicus,
Roma, 1954), suggests that we really have an established Semitic pattern in
this passage, in which an individual stands for, and even embodies, a
collectivity. Thus the woman would be Mary
individually. She would stand for the Church. Le Frois
further suggests that this could be a prophecy, that near the end the Church
would take on a specially Marian character, resulting
in a sort of age of Mary."
In "Mary in Our Life; Appendix IV:
Mary in the Protoevangelium and Apocalypse"
Fr. Most stated:
Arguments for
the interpretation of both Mary and the Church.:
"Those who wish to
see the woman as only the Church have been greatly moved by the problem
of her pain in birth. We have solved this difficulty in the words of Saint Pius
X. Yet we must admit that in the context of chapter 12
St. John does seem to have the Church in mind. Now the woman cannot be the
Church alone, for the Church is in no sense the Mother of Christ.
Nor could this last difficulty be solved by saying that the Church continues,
the Jewish Church, and that the latter would be the Mother of Christ, for the
Jewish Church persecuted both Christ and His Mystical Body.
The best solution is that
proposed in an exhaustive exegetical study of Apoc. 12 by Bernard J. Le Frois, S.V.D. From an
investigation of Semitic thought patterns, he finds that several times in
Scripture, an individual stands for a collectivity, and the collectivity is
embodied in the individual. Hence, in Apoc. 12, Mary
would stand for the perfect realization of the Church.
Now if this
double sense is true, then, since the vision seems to refer to the last days of
the world, it might indicate that the Church toward the end is to take on a
specially Marian character, in an age of Mary, as if Mary were again to bring
her Son into the world (though not, of course, by human birth). St. Louis de Montfort prophesied that
an age of Mary would precede the end-though he did not pretend to know if its
length would be only a few years or some centuries. Our present Holy Father [ Pius XII ], in a private conversation, is reported to have
said to the Director of the General Secretariate of
all Sodalities in Rome, that we are now in the age
of Mary."
The messages of
Our Lady to Fr. Gobbi, as well as much other private prophecy confirm that
Revelation 12 refers both to Mary, the Mother of God, and to the Immaculate
Heart of Mary together with the remnant Church. Certain excerpts of
relevant messages to Fr. Gobbi relating to this are presented below.
Consider the
above citations and recall that I stated at the outset, that the refuge that I
am associated with is (1) located in the countryside [or wilderness], (2) that
we were told that we would be taken up on wings of eagles above the chaos and
devastation, and (3) that the Blessed Virgin Mary would be given charge of the
refuge while we resided there. .
.
Luke
.
"As it was in the
days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of man. They ate, they
drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day when Noah
entered the ark,
and the flood came and destroyed them all. Likewise as it was in the days of
Lot--they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built,
but on the day when Lot went out from Sodom fire and sulphur
rained from heaven and destroyed them all -- so will it be on the day when the
Son of man is revealed. On that day, let him who is on the housetop, with his
goods in the house, not come down to take them away; and likewise let him who
is in the field not turn back. Remember Lot's wife. Whoever seeks to gain his
life will lose it, but whoever loses his life will preserve it. I tell you, in
that night there will be two in one bed; one will be taken and the other left.
There will be two women grinding together; one will be taken and the other
left."
And they said to him,
"Where, Lord?"
He said to them, "Where the body is, there the eagles will be gathered
together." (Lk 17:26-34)
Comment:
Based upon what we have
covered thus far, where will the eagles gather at this time? In
the wilderness. And who is going to be in charge in the wilderness? The Mother of God. How will we get there? Our guardian
angels will lead us there, and we will be taken up on wings of eagles to get
there. .

Lactantius
Father of the Church - Circa
300 A.D.
.
"Thus the
earth shall be laid waste,
as though by one common robbery. When these things shall so happen, then the
righteous and the followers of truth shall separate themselves from the wicked,
and flee into solitudes" .
.
St. Hippolytus
Father of the Church - Circa
200 A.D.
.
"Now, concerning the tribulation
of the persecution which is to fall upon the Church from the adversary, John
also speaks thus:
"And I saw a great
and wondrous sign in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun,
and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars. And
she, being with child, cries, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
And the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to
devour her child as soon as it was born. And she brought forth a man-child, who
is to rule all the nations: and the child was caught up unto God and to His
throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where
she hath the place prepared of God,
that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and
threescore days. And then when the dragon saw it, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man-child"
"And the
dragon," he says, "saw and persecuted the woman which brought forth
the man-child. And to the woman were given two wings
of the great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and
half a time, from the face of the serpent."
That refers to
the one thousand two hundred and threescore days (the half of the week) during which the tyrant is
to reign
and persecute the Church, which flees from city to city, and seeks concealment
in the wilderness among the mountains, possessed of no other defense than the
two wings of the great eagle,
that is to say, the faith of Jesus Christ, who, in stretching forth His holy
hands on the holy tree, unfolded two wings, the right and the left, and called
to Him all who believed upon Him, and covered them as a hen her chickens. For
by the mouth of Malachi also He speaks thus: "And unto you that fear my
name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in His wings." .

Other Passages From Holy Scripture

"I will pour out My spirit. And I will work wonders in the heavens, and on
earth, blood, fire and columns of smoke; the sun will be turned to darkness and
the moon to blood, at the coming of the day of the
LORD, the great and terrible day. Then everyone
shall be rescued who calls on the name of the LORD; For
on Mount Zion there shall be a remnant, as the LORD has said, and in Jerusalem
survivors whom the LORD shall call."....(Jl 3:2-5)
"On that
day, the remnant
of Israel, the survivors of the house of Jacob, will no more lean upon him who
struck them; but they will lean upon the LORD, the
Holy One of Israel, in truth a remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob,
to the mighty God. For though your people, O Israel, were like the sand of the
sea, Only a remnant of them will return, their destruction is decreed as
overwhelming justice demands. Yes, the destruction he has decreed, the Lord, the GOD of
hosts, will carry out within the whole land. "...(Is 10:20-23).
"
Can a mother forget
her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should she
forget, I will never forget you.". ..(Is 49:15) .

On Eagles Wings
The Hymn

|
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord, |
|
|
who abide in His shadow for life, |
|
|
say to the Lord: "My refuge, my rock in whom I trust." |
|
|
and He will raise you up on Eagle's wings, |
|
|
bear you on the breath of dawn, |
|
|
make you to shine like the sun, |
|
|
and hold you in the palm of His hand. |
|
|
The snare of the fowler will never capture you, |
|
|
and famine will bring you no fear: under His wings |
|
|
your refuge, His faithfulness your shield. |
|
|
You need not fear the terror of the night, |
|
|
nor the arrow that flies by day; |
|
|
though thousands fall about you, |
|
|
near you it shall not come. |
|
|
For to His angels He's given command |
|
|
to guard you in all your ways; |
|
|
upon their hands they will bear you up, |
|
|
lest you dash your foot against a stone, |
|
|
and hold you, hold you in the palm of His hand. |

While a hymn is hardly an authoritative
reference, this one does appear to represent an interesting synthesis of
Revelation 12, Psalm 91, Isaiah 40 and 2 Samuel 22 (each presented herein). .
.
Psalm 91
.
Psalm 91 describes Gods complete
protection of His Faithful Remnant at that time. Jesus told our refuge group to
read it.
"You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High, who abide in the shadow of the
Almighty, Say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I
trust.".
For he will rescue you from the snare of the fowler, from
the destroying pestilence.
With His pinions He will cover you, and under His wings you shall take refuge, His faithfulness is a buckler
and a shield.
You shall not fear the
terror of the night nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that
roams in darkness, nor the devastating plague at noon.
Though a thousand fall at
your side, ten thousand at your right side, near you
it shall not come.
Rather with your eyes
shall you behold and see the requital
of the wicked. Because you have the LORD for your
refuge you have made the Most High your stronghold.
No evil shall
befall you, nor shall affliction come near your tent. For to His
angels He has given command about you, that they guard you in all your
ways. Upon their hands they shall bear you up, lest
you dash your foot against a stone.
You shall tread upon the
asp and the viper; you shall trample down the lion and the dragon.".
"Because he clings to
Me, I will deliver him. I will set him on high because he acknowledges My name. He shall call upon Me, and
I will answer him; I will be with him in distress; I will deliver him and
glorify him; with length of days I will gratify him and will show him My
salvation.". .

Fr. Stefano Gobbi - Imprimaturs
.
The preeminent theme of
Our Lady's messages to Fr. Gobbi (3) is our consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, the
resultant safe refuge of her Immaculate Heart now and during the Great
Tribulation, and the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart. .At best the few excerpts below provide
only a flavor of such theme.
Our Blessed Mother said:
#29 The Triumph of My Immaculate Heart
"In fact at the very
moment when Satan will be enthroned as lord of the world and will think himself
now the sure victor, I myself will snatch the prey from
his hands. In a trice he will find himself empty-handed, and in the end
the victory will be exclusively my Son's and mine. This will
be the triumph of my Immaculate Heart in the world."
.
.
#99
Consecrate Yourselves to My Immaculate Heart
"Consecrate
yourselves to my Immaculate Heart.
To everyone who
consecrates himself to me I again promise salvation: safety from error in this world
and eternal salvation.
You will obtain
this through my special motherly intervention. Thus, I will prevent you from
falling into the enticements of Satan. You will be protected and defended by me
personally; you will be consoled and strengthened by me."
.
#154 The
Whole Church in My refuge - Nagasaki, Japan June 3, 1978
"What
happened in this place could soon happen in every part of the world if my
children do not accept my invitation to return to God
Enter into
my Immaculate Heart: it is the refuge which the Mother gives you. In it you
will find all that I have prepared for you in order to pass through the
terrible hours of purification through which you are now living.
The whole
Church must now enter into my refuge: with the Pope, the bishops, the priests, and all the
faithful.
It is for this reason that
I am leading you to all parts of the world. The time has come when the small
remnant, who will remain faithful and with whom Jesus will bring about the
realization of His reign, must enter, in its entirety, into my Immaculate
Heart.
Whoever does not enter into this refuge will
be carried away by the great tempest which has already begun to rage."
.
.
#175 The Woman Clothed with the Sun
"I have also prepared
a refuge for you that you may be brought together, protected and strengthened
during the present tempest which will become even more violent. The refuge is my Immaculate Heart.
I am now announcing to you
that this is the time of the decisive battle. During these years, I myself am
intervening, as the Woman Clothed with the Sun, in order to bring to
fulfillment the triumph of my Immaculate Heart which I have already begun
through you, my beloved sons."
.
#328 Ark
of the New Covenant
"Enter
into the refuge which your heavenly Mother has prepared for you, for your
salvation and that you may be able to pass in safety, in my Immaculate Heart,
the terrible days of the great tempest which is already at hand.
This is the
moment for all to take refuge in me, because I am the Ark of the New Covenant.
At the time of Noah,
immediately before the flood, those whom the Lord had destined to survive his
terrible chastisement entered into the ark. In these your times, I am inviting all my beloved children to enter into the Ark
of the New Covenant which I have built in my Immaculate Heart for you,
that they may be assisted by me to carry the bloody burden of the great trial,
which precedes the coming of the day of the Lord.
Do not look
anywhere else.
There is happening today what happened in the days of the flood, and no one is
giving a thought to what is awaiting them. Everyone is much occupied in
thinking only of themselves, of their own earthly interests, of pleasures and
of satisfying in every sort of way, their own disordinate
passions."
.
#410 The Mark on the Forehead and on the Hand
"If my Adversary is
signing, with his mark, all his followers, the time has come when I also, your heavenly Leader, am signing, with my motherly
seal, all those who have consecrated themselves to my Immaculate Heart
and have formed part of my army.
I am imprinting
my seal on your foreheads with the
most holy sign of the Cross of my Son Jesus(4) . Thus I am opening the human intellect
to receive his divine word, to love it, and to live it. I am leading you to entrust
yourselves completely to Jesus who has revealed it to you. And I am making of
you today courageous witnesses of faith. Against those signed on the forehead
with the blasphemous mark, I am opposing my children signed with the Cross of
Jesus Christ."
.
#458 The Great Sign in Heaven
"Look to me, beloved
sons and you who are consecrated to me, in the great battle which you are
fighting, under the orders of your heavenly Leader. I
am the Woman Clothed with the Sun.
I am the great sign
which appears in heaven."
.
#561 In My Safe Refuge
"Into my
safe refuge, above all, all of you, my children, must enter that you may be
protected and defended by me, now that you are entering into the conclusive
period of the purification and the great tribulation".
.
#520 An Apocalyptic Message - May 13, 1994 (Anniversary
of the First Apparition of Fatima)
My Immaculate Heart opens
and causes rays of my motherly and merciful love to descend upon you. It is within your time that the fulfillment of the message
is taking place, the message which I have given you at Fatima and against which my Adversary has thrown
himself in fury, but which will now appear in all its extraordinary importance
for the church and for all humanity.
It is an
apocalyptic message.
It has regard to
the end of the times.
It announces and prepares
for the return of my Son Jesus in glory.
--- Upon this humanity
which has again become pagan, enveloped in
the coldness of the denial of God and of rebellion against his Law of love,
corrupted by sin and evil, and over whom Satan reigns as a sure victor, I am
causing the rays of love and of light from my Immaculate Heart to come down
Thus my Immaculate Heart
becomes today the sure means of salvation for all this humanity, because only in my Immaculate Heart will you find refuge in the
moment of the chastisement, comfort in the hour of suffering, relief in
the midst of unspeakable afflictions, light in the days of densest darkness,
refreshment amidst the flames of the fire which consumes, confidence and hope
in a now general despair.
--- Upon this Church,
darkened and wounded, stricken and betrayed, I am causing the rays of love
and of light from my Immaculate Heart to come down.
When there will have entered into her the man of iniquity, who will bring to
fulfillment the abomination of desolation which will reach its climax in the
horrible sacrilege, as the great apostasy will have spread everywhere, then my Immaculate Heart will gather together the little
faithful remnant which, in suffering, in prayer
and in hope, will await the return of my Son Jesus in glory
Mine is an apocalyptic
message,
because you are in the heart of that which has been announced to you in the
last and so very important book of Sacred Scripture.
I entrust to the angels of
light of my Immaculate Heart the task of bringing you to an understanding of
these events, now that I have opened the sealed Book
for you.".
.
#521 Come,
Holy Spirit
"Come, Holy
Spirit.
A new and universal
effusion of the Holy Spirit is necessary to arrive at the new times, so longed
for. It is necessary that the second Pentecost come quickly. It can come to
pass only in the spiritual cenacle of my Immaculate Heart. For this reason, I
renew today the invitation to all the Church to enter into the cenacle which
the heavenly Mother has prepared for you for the final times. You are able to enter through the act of consecration to my
Immaculate Heart.
I request that
this consecration, asked by me with such anxious insistence, be made by the
bishops, the priests, the religious and the faithful. And let it be
made by all in order to shorten the time of the great trial which has now
arrived."
The triumph of my
Immaculate Heart will coincide with the great prodigy of the second Pentecost.
A new fire will come down
from heaven and will purify all humanity, which has again become pagan. It will be like a judgement in miniature, and each one will
see himself in the light of the very truth of God."

#403 The Two Wings of the Great Eagle
"My beloved sons,
today you are venerating me in a special way, on the first Saturday of this
month of May, which is specially dedicated to me by
you. You are gathered in cenacles of brotherly sharing and of prayer with your
heavenly Mother.
How much comfort you give
to my deep sorrow; how much joy you bring to my Immaculate Heart! Because, by means of you who have responded to me, devotion to me
is now flourishing again in all the Church.
Thus I am able to
exercise, in these times of yours, the great power which has been given to me
by the Most Holy Trinity, to render harmless the attack which my Adversary, the
Red Dragon, has unleashed against me, vomiting from his mouth a river of water
to submerge me. The river of water is made up of the collection of all the new
theological doctrines, which have sought to
obscure the image of your heavenly Mother, to
deny her privileges, to restructure devotion to her, and to cast ridicule upon all those who are devoted to her.
Because of these attacks of the Dragon, in these years, piety toward me has
steadily diminished among many of the Faithful and, in some places, has even
disappeared.
But to the help of your
heavenly Mother, there have come the two wings of
the great eagle. The great eagle is the word of God, above
all the word contained in the Gospel of my Son Jesus.
Of the four Gospels, the
eagle indicates that of Saint John because he flies higher than all, enters
into the very Heart of the Most Holy Trinity affirming with forcefulness the
divinity, the eternity and the consubstantiality of the Word and the divinity
of Jesus Christ.
The two wings of the eagle are the word
of God, received, loved and kept with faith and the word of God lived
with grace and charity.
The two wings of faith and of charity -- that is to say, of the word of God
received and lived by me -- permitted me to fly above the river of water of all
the attacks made upon me, because they have manifested to the world my true
greatness.
And then I sought a refuge
for myself in the desert. The desert, in which I have
made my habitual dwelling place, is made up of the hearts and the souls of all
those children who receive me, who listen to me, who entrust themselves
completely to me, who consecrate themselves to
my Immaculate Heart. In the desert in
which I find myself, I am working today my greatest prodigies. I am working
them in the heart and in the soul, that is to say, in the life of all my
littlest children. Thus I am leading them to follow me
along the road of faith and of charity, bringing them to receive, to love and
to keep the word of God and helping them to live each day with consistency and
courage.
In silence and in
hiddenness, that is to say, in the desert in which I find myself, I am working
forcefully that my children consecrated to me believe today in the Gospel, let
themselves be guided only by the wisdom of the Gospel, be ever the Gospel lived
out.
This is the task which I have
prepared for the army which I have formed for myself in every part of the
world, with my Marian Movement of Priests: to let themselves be carried with me
on the two wings of the great eagle, namely of faith and of charity,
receiving with love and living solely, in these times of yours, the word of
God.
The great prodigies which I am accomplishing today, in the desert in which I
find myself, are those of transforming completely the life of my little
children, that they may become courageous witness of faith and luminous
examples of holiness.
In this way, in
silence and in hiddenness, each day I am preparing my great victory over the
Dragon, in the triumph of my Immaculate Heart in the world." .
.
The Enigma Solved
.
As I worked on this
writing, everything seemed to fall into place nicely. That which Our Lord had
told our refuge group, Holy Scripture, the teachings of the Fathers, it all fit
so well. Then I read Fr. Gobbi's message #403, and it
threw me. (At that time I had not reread and posted the other messages
excerpted in the section above on Fr. Gobbi.)
I had every reason to
believe both points of view about the wings of eagles. I have witnessed and
experienced mystical occurrences regarding the refuge that we have been asked
to build for Our Lord, and Our Lord had personally given me several of Fr. Gobbi's messages to write about before. Every attempt at
understanding the two points of view, and reconciling them, left me disquieted.
At one of our weekly
prayer meetings, I prayed to Our Lord and asked Him to please help me solve the
enigma. Through the visionary (5) friend of mine who conducts our prayer meeting, He
responded as follows. (NB: as I discussed in my testimony, Our Lord provides
things to me to write about in many different ways. In it, I compared the
preparation of these writings, to the solving of a jig-saw puzzle. After
feeling a sense of completion, I then pray for His authorization to publish.
Further, I had not revealed the nature of the writing that Our Lord had me
preparing at the time, to either of my friends discussed below.):
Our Lord told me to read
Genesis 7:23, which reads:
The Lord wiped
out every living thing on earth: man and cattle, the creeping things and the
birds of the air; all were wiped out from the earth. Only Noah and those with
him in the
ark
were left.
.(Gn 7:23)
Then my friend was given a
vision. In the background flashing were scenes of the war in Israel. While the
various scenes changed in the background, in the foreground was a black
silhouette of a phoenix rising, with its head turned to our left. (Among other
things the phoenix is a Masonic symbol. Other private prophecy has stated that
the strife in the Middle East is being orchestrated by the Freemasons to create
chaos, and thus facilitate the rise of the Antichrist.).
Next, she saw a vision of Our Lady of
Guadalupe clothed with the sun in the sky.
Then my friend was
directed to Revelation 12, and the last few
verses of Revelation 11. (You will recall that in
Chapter 11, St. John writes of seeing the ark in the heavens, which I had not considered.).
Next, Our Lord told me
when working on these writings, to light a candle, and to pray to St. Joan of
Arc for help.
Lastly, He told us to
contact another mutual visionary friend, and inquire whether "she had
received any messages".
That was it, nothing more.
I contacted our other
visionary (6) friend and without revealing the
nature of this writing to her, her diary had the following entry in it
regarding a vision that she had received a few months ago:
"Right now as I am
writing this I got a flash of people running, running
away from a city or town or something --
also the words: 'He will mount you up on eagles wings'".
.
Armed with this added
information, and after much prayer I present the following for your
consideration in reconciling the two points of view regarding the meaning of
'on wings of eagles', and the progression of the Old Testament types,
and New Testament antitypes (7) :
|
A. |
In the days of Noah, the
people had rejected God, and became depraved (Gn 6:5).
God sent a chastisement to purify the world of evil (Gn 6:13). Noah's ark completely protected God's faithful people and the animals from His Divine Justice against the evil people of the world. In God's plan, the animals necessary to repopulate the Earth after the devastation were on board the ark, as well (Gen. 7:23). |
|
B. |
The Ark of the Covenant
contained: the written word of God on the tablets of the covenant; the rod of
Aaron, High Priest of Israel
..(Ex 30:30); and the golden urn containing manna,
the bread that descended from Heaven (Heb 9:4). As they traversed the
countryside, God removed all obstacles in the path of the priests who carried
the ark and the accompanying faithful Israelites devoted to it (Jos. 3:13-17). Jeremiah buried the Ark of the Covenant in a cave where it is hidden and fully-protected (2 Mc 2:5). |
|
C. |
The New Ark of the
Covenant, which is the Blessed Virgin Mary, carried within her womb, the
Incarnate Word of God (Jn 1:1-14)
and the New and Everlasting Covenant (Heb 13:20). Jesus is the High Priest
of God (Hebrews;
esp. Heb 5:5). Jesus rules the world with a rod of iron (Ps 2:9; Rv 12:5). Jesus, in the Holy
Eucharist, is the bread of life that descended from Heaven (Jn 6:48-51). Through His immolation and death on the cross, Jesus saved mankind from the Father's Divine justice of eternal damnation for our sins (Rom 5:8-21). |
|
D. |
The Immaculate Heart of Mary is our safe refuge during the Great Tribulation. We enter into this refuge, by making the consecration to her Immaculate Heart. At such time we are given a seal on our foreheads, the Cross of Jesus Christ. Those who do not make the consecration, do not receive a seal, and will suffer (Fr. Gobbi and Ez 9:5; Rv 7:3 and Rv 9:3-5). |
|
E. |
With a river or torrent
of new theoretical doctrines, evil men have tried to malign Our Lady and her
role as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix
and Advocate; and also her perpetual virginity and her Immaculate Conception.
Those devoted to her, are ridiculed as fanatics and heretics (Rv 12:15 & Fr.
Gobbi 403). Thus, these evil men stifle devotion to, and consecration to, her Immaculate Heart. If Satan can destroy the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the minds of some, then he destroys the Immaculate Heart of Mary in their minds, as well. If he does that, he destroys their safe refuge during the Tribulation, as those who make the consecration to her Immaculate Heart are promised safe refuge during the Tribulation (Fr. Gobbi 99). |
|
F. |
Also, those who make the consecration, will be protected, defended, consoled and strengthened by the Immaculate Heart of Mary (Fr. Gobbi 99). She will lead them to follow her along the road of faith and of charity, bringing them to receive, to love and to keep the word of God and helping them to live each day with consistency and courage . (Fr. Gobbi 403). |
|
G. |
At the appropriate time,
those consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
will be summoned by their respective Guardian Angels to flee to the refuges
located in the countryside. (Mt 24:15-22; Lk 17:26-34 & Ex 23:20-22). This is how the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary will be
realized (Fr. Gobbi 29). Our Lord will take us up
on Wings of Eagles over the chaos, and devastation
to the physical refuges in the wilderness. God will remove all obstacles in
our paths along the way. As we flee to the refuges, God will give us the
ability to flee swiftly like deer without tiring. (Rv 12:14; Ps 91; 2 Sm 22; Is 40:3-31). At the refuges, all of
our needs will be cared for by Our Lord. We will reside in caves for shelter,
hidden and fully-protected together with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our
Lady (Ps
91; Is 40:3-31). She
will be in charge of the refuges. While we reside there,
fully-protected by the grace of God during the Great Tribulation, Our
Heavenly Father's justice is carried out upon the wicked of the world. These
evil people and the world will be destroyed, and purified (Rv 13 through18). Only the faithful remnant that reside within the New Ark of the Covenant and
their animals will be saved (Fr. Gobbi). And she will have crushed his head (8) ..(Gn. 3:15). |
.
Note: According to certain
private prophecy, we will be called by our guardian angels to the refuges in
advance of the Great Chastisement. After the appropriate period of time to
allow for safety due to nuclear radiation, we will leave the refuges. Shortly
thereafter, the Great Tribulation will increase, and then we will be called by
our guardian angels back to the refuges. For simplicity sake the above chart
does not contemplate this.
.
2
Samuel
.
Shortly, after the above
mentioned prayer meeting, the first visionary friend of mine was reflecting
upon her picture of Our Lady of Guadalupe. She was moved by how the moon in the
picture resembled horns. She felt in her heart that I should run an electronic
search on the word "horn" in the Bible, and further she recommended
that I run such search on the books of Deuteronomy or Samuel. (Remember the
hymn?)
2 Samuel 22 reads as
follows:
"The LORD
is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take
refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my
savior; thou savest me from violence.
I call upon the
LORD, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.
"For the
waves of death encompassed me, the torrents of perdition assailed me; the cords
of Sheol entangled me, the snares of death confronted
me. "In my distress I called upon the LORD; to my
God I called. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry came to his ears.
"Then the
earth reeled and rocked; the foundations of the heavens trembled and quaked,
because he was angry. Smoke went up from his nostrils, and devouring fire from
his mouth; glowing coals flamed forth from him. He bowed the heavens, and came
down; thick darkness was under his feet. He rode on a cherub, and flew; he was
seen upon the wings of the wind. He made darkness around him his canopy, thick
clouds, a gathering of water. Out of the brightness before him coals of fire
flamed forth. The LORD thundered from heaven, and the Most High uttered his
voice. And he sent out arrows, and scattered them; lightning, and routed them.
Then the channels of the sea were seen, the foundations of the world were laid
bare, at the rebuke of the LORD, at the blast of the breath of his nostrils.
"He reached from on
high, he took me, he drew me out of many waters.
He delivered me
from my strong enemy, from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me. They came
upon me in the day of my calamity; but the LORD was my stay. He brought me forth into a broad place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
"The LORD rewarded me
according to my righteousness; according to the cleanness of my hands he
recompensed me. For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed
from my God. For all his ordinances were before me,
and from his statutes I did not turn aside.
I was blameless before
him, and I kept myself from guilt. Therefore the LORD has recompensed me
according to my righteousness, according to my cleanness in his sight.
"With the loyal thou
dost show thyself loyal; with the blameless man thou dost show thyself
blameless; with the pure thou dost show thyself pure, and with the crooked thou
dost show thyself perverse. Thou dost deliver a humble people, but thy eyes are
upon the haughty to bring them down.
Yea, thou art my lamp, O
LORD, and my God lightens my darkness. Yea, by thee I
can crush a troop, and by my God I can leap over a wall. This God--his way is
perfect; the promise of the LORD proves true; he is a shield for all those who
take refuge in him.
"For
who is God, but the LORD?
And who is a rock, except our God?
This God is my
strong refuge, and has made my way safe. He made my feet like hinds' feet [i.e. the feet of a doe or
female deer], and set me secure on the heights. He trains my hands for war, so that
my arms can bend a bow of bronze. Thou hast given me the shield of thy
salvation, and thy help made me great. Thou didst give
a wide place for my steps under me, and my feet did not slip; I pursued
my enemies and destroyed them, and did not turn back until they were consumed.
I consumed them; I thrust them through, so that they did not rise; they fell
under my feet.
For thou didst gird me
with strength for the battle; thou didst make my assailants sink under me. Thou
didst make my enemies turn their backs to me, those who hated me, and I
destroyed them. They looked, but there was none to save; they cried to the
LORD, but he did not answer them. I beat them fine as the dust of the earth, I crushed them and stamped them down like the mire of
the streets.
"Thou didst deliver
me from strife with the peoples; thou didst keep me as the head of the nations;
people whom I had not known served me. Foreigners came cringing to me; as soon
as they heard of me, they obeyed me. Foreigners lost heart, and came trembling
out of their fastnesses.
"The LORD
lives; and blessed be my rock, and exalted be my God, the rock of my salvation,
the God who gave me vengeance and brought down peoples under me, who brought me
out from my enemies; thou didst exalt me above my adversaries, thou didst
deliver me from men of violence.
"For this I
will extol thee, O LORD, among the nations, and sing praises to thy name. (2 Samuel 22:2-50)
.
.
One might ask: "Has anything like this ever happened in Biblical
history that will assure us that Our Lord will rescue us from danger, and
provide for our needs subsequently?"
As an answer to this
question, please consider the following citation from Exodus:
.
Exodus
.
"On the third new
moon after the people of Israel had gone forth out of the land of Egypt, on
that day they came into the wilderness of Sinai. And when they set out from Reph'idim and came into the wilderness of Sinai, they
encamped in the wilderness; and there Israel encamped before the mountain.
And Moses went up to God,
and the LORD called to him out of the mountain, saying, 'Thus you shall say to
the house of Jacob, and tell the people of Israel: You
have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and
brought you to myself.'" (Ex 191-4)
.
.
.
As we mentioned above,
much has been provided about the times to come, and how we should prepare. The
following excerpts from the private prophets below only provide a flavor of
what has been said. We encourage you to read their archived messages at their
respective web sites, the URL's of which are provided in the Footnotes below. .
.
Carol Ameche
.
During July, 1998 the
world was warned of impending nuclear war by yearend through Carol Ameche (9) . We were told to gather food, clothing
and supplies to flee
to the refuges at a moments notice by our respective guardian angels in
advance of nuclear attacks. Through Carol, He has stated, that food, supplies
and clothing will be miraculously multiplied
when those consecrated to the Immaculate Heart are called by their guardian
angels to evacuate in advance of the Great Chastisement (nuclear). A "nuclear winter" resulting from the
combined nuclear fallout blocking out the sun is to follow, and all are
encouraged to bring warm clothing to sustain extremely cold weather. Jesus said
that we are to prepare now, and set your clothes and supplies to the side ready
to leave at a moment's notice. Your sacramentals will provide heat and light.
Note: Those that share their food, supplies and clothing will have it
multiplied; those who hoard it will have it consumed. It will be as in the days
of Elijah (2) .
Food, supplies and
clothing will be miraculously provided when
those consecrated to the Immaculate Heart are called later
by their guardian angels into hiding at the time of the persecution of
Christians within the Great Tribulation.
On October 19,
1998 (NB: prior to the end of the year), and again on January 3 and 4, 1999, and again on April
7, 2000 Our Lord told us through Carol, that as a result of our prayers and
fasting, and the prayers of Our Blessed Mother, Our Heavenly Father had delayed
the impending nuclear bombing. Our Lord hastened to
add that the threat has been delayed, and not eliminated. It
continues to be a real threat, as of this writing.
The power of
prayer is incomprehensible, as the extent of the Father's Mercy is incomprehensible.
Jesus warned
us to keep some food, supplies and clothing gathered ready to leave at any
time. My family's backpacks
continue to be packed. 
In an effort to preserve
the meaning and impetus of the following excerpts of Carol's messages, we
present them in chronological order beginning with July 1998.
.
July 13, 1998
Mary said: "
Dear ones, be firm in your conviction of the need to
prepare to leave your houses at any moment. When I say there will be
nuclear war before the year is over, I mean the powers of the world will
attempt to destroy smaller and less well-defended nations BEFORE THIS YEAR
ENDS!!!
Once a strike occurs, the
retaliation will be automatic, and occur according to plans already agreed upon
by leaders of major powers.
You are being given
explicit information by Heaven, at this time through the words of your Mother Of All People. I am that Mother, who calls to all to repent
and come back to your God; to prepare for the
eventuality of nuclear destruction in almost EVERY country in the world.
Terrorists are people without
the means of caring for others, who are driven by a depth of hatred unknown to
most other people in the world.
The events will
happen so rapidly that if you do not move immediately and quickly, you may be
caught by the death-dealing weapons that are involved in these attacks
Realize that We come to you everywhere with special graces and
whisperings of love and caution, begging you to HEED
THE WARNINGS that will precede the time when each person in the world will see
their sins, their weaknesses, their selfishness and pride!
LISTEN to Our
messengers as they share Our words, and PLAN TO BE
READY TO LEAVE IN AN INSTANT. 
You have NO idea of the
degree of devastation and injury which occurs as a result of these weapons of
such terrible destruction
Be sure of this: when the devastation begins and the Warning occurs, many will come seeking your
forgiveness for their doubt and their own hard hearts.

August 2, 1998
Jesus said: "
BE READIED BEFORE THE WEEK IS OUT AND CONTINUE TO LISTEN TO
WORDS GIVEN TO THIS MESSENGER ON YOUR BEHALF
"
.
August 22, 1998
Jesus said: "Please
tell Our people tomorrow that they must act in great
haste now, as evil people around the world set into motion the plans to begin a
nuclear holocaust! This is information being given by the great Mercy of My
Father. As each one hears Our words, pray first that
they will be filled with Our Spirit of trust and acceptance of the Truth.
I repeat, those who do not
take steps to follow Our call and leave when they are
instructed, will perish!
Each one is free to make a
choice. Unfortunately, many will choose to stubbornly refuse to comply with Our requests and will not survive this tremendous nuclear
attack planned to annihilate so much of the world
Do NOT argue, My people, or defend your own beliefs in these words. Hurry to gather belongings and foodstuffs and water necessary
to sustain you for many weeks. Pray that as many as possible will accept
this advice and hurry to prepare to depart
I repeat,
hasten to gather what you can, and prepare to leave at
any moment!
It is unbelievable how
many will hear and believe, yet NOT act upon these messages of increased
intensity. Pray, My people, that you will be strong
enough to act upon your own convictions and come away when you are summoned to
leave for safety from the effects of nuclear fallout. THIS IS A REAL THREAT, A
GREATER POSSIBILITY THAN EVER.
Do not delay, dearest
ones, but begin this moment upon returning to your homes to gather in earnest
all you would need to survive away from your homes for
this brief period of time. . I remind you to gather
whatever you can, and I will take care of the rest, but do not be lazy or unmoved by the
serious need to act now to gather whatever you have, or can acquire, in
response to My pleading.
I am your Jesus of Mercy,
Who sends words of Love to you in an attempt to save lives from the terrible effects of radiation
.
August 31, 1998
Jesus said: "
My people, WAKE up! Please, GET up!! Go to a closet. Look
INTENTLY at the contents. What is there that you might use in a situation away
from the house and hiding from nuclear fallout?
Go to your KITCHEN and
LOOK AROUND. What do you SEE? What might you wish to take with you for a period
of time away from your store of food and cooking utensils?
Walk into your BEDROOMS
and see what is there that you use every day. SEE what you are looking at, My people, My dear wooden-heads'!! Allow yourselves
to be touched, awakened, alerted to danger by My words.
HEAR what I am telling
you, people. ACT upon the directions I give you now. Be filled with a spirit of
ADVENTURE and EXCITEMENT. TRAVEL with My Mother and Myself in the company of Our beloved Joseph, who led Us away from the danger of
Herod's men.
Today, the SPIRIT OF
DESTRUCTION IS AGAIN ON THE MARCH! Even more powerful and destructive weapons
are in the hands of maniacal minds that do not think of all of you as something
to be valued, but as objects of their great, great hatred.
Please BELIEVE My words, beloved ones. MOVE
QUICKLY to get ready for My call to you to depart.
I and My Mother, the Angels and Saints continually pray before the Father's Throne
that you will be convinced of the need to respond to these requests before it
is too late to escape the effects of terrible suffering.
Do not imagine
that you can imagine what this will be like, My dear
ones! You must be
obedient to My call, and prepare in order to be saved
and fight by My side against the terrible forces of the Anti-Christ, who is
renewed daily by Satan himself!
If you believe and are
preparing, My dear, dear ones, pray for those who
choose not to accept the truth of these warnings. Do not believe the evil
whisperings of Satan's demons that attempt to distract you and dilute your
focus, your strength
PROMISE ME AND PROMISE
YOURSELF THAT YOU WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO ANSWER MY REQUESTS! THERE IS
NOTHING ELSE THAT MUST OCCUPY YOUR TIME NOW
GET UP, MY
PEOPLE. GO OUT AND ORGANIZE YOUR BELONGINGS FOR THE CALL THAT IS TO COME AT ANY
MOMENT. OFFER THIS
AS A PRAYER TO MY FATHER IN REPARATION FOR YOUR OWN SINS OF FAILURE TO BELIEVE,
FAILURE TO TRUST, FAILURE TO RESPOND, FAILURE TO ACT UPON ALL OUR PLEADING, ALL
OUR REQUESTS TO YOU

September 21, 1998
Mary said: "
YOU WHO ARE BEING OBEDIENT HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR.
I ask you to pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ who will not choose
to be obedient and leave their homes in order to avoid nuclear fallout or
actual devastation
"
.
October 19, 1998
Jesus said: "
THE
ANTI-CHRIST WAITS IN THE WINGS OF HISTORY! His evil plans are ready to be
deployed by his followers. Evil will have its day, and the innocent along with
the guilty will suffer the results of his hatred and dreadful plans.
War has been
narrowly averted for the moment, daughter. The plans of My Father to
interfere with the plans of Satan have stayed the moment of destruction for a
small while, once again. Be grateful for this last second reprieve before Hell
is loosed upon the Earth, first through war and death at the hands of the sons
of evil, then at the hands of Satan himself and all his demons..
Be filled with peace and
patience for the moment when the Father's hand falls and allows Satan to
proceed with all of his well-laid plans to conquer the world with his greatest
ally, the Anti-Christ.
As the days go
by, it is more urgent than EVER for each one to finish the task of gathering
food and clothing and supplies!

December 29, 1998
Mary said:
"
All of Our children will know the results of their choices as they see
the state of their souls, and the condition of mind and body, after nuclear attacks are aimed
at this country
I am so pleased and
grateful to all my children who have remained faithful, and continue to pray
for Mercy on the world, and prepare to follow their
Angels to a place of safety from nuclear destruction and fallout.
St. Joseph prays for your
strength, dear one, and for all who remain faithful members of my Army. WITHOUT ALL OF YOU, THERE WOULD BE NO MITIGATION AND MERCY
FOR THE WORLD ALLOWING CERTAIN EVENTS TO BE DELAYED, OR LESSENED IN SEVERITY
AND DEGREE OF DEVASTATION
"
.
January 4, 1999
Jesus then said:
"Daughter, it is I, your Lord Jesus Christ, King and Spouse to you. All
those who listen to Our words wait for the next words
of explanation Heaven has to give. THERE IS NO
EXPLANATION, SAVE THE MERCY OF THE FATHER OF US ALL! When you pray for
mitigation of war and nuclear destruction, My people,
and for Mercy on the world, you should realize that this is the reaction and
response the Father waits for! He must have your prayers, your sacrifices, your
sincere love and fasting. When you comply with HIS requests, He is then able to
choose to comply with YOUR requests!!
My Father Loves His people
and is deeply moved when you, His faithful ones, pray in love and concern for
the salvation of the world, for true peace and Mercy to be given.
I have told you
before, dear ones of My Heart, these events cannot be removed completely, but
are, and can continue to be, lessened in severity and incidence. He is
showing you the MIGHTY RESULTS OF YOUR PRAYERS in order to convince and
encourage you to persist in your prayerful pleadings to Him. .

October 10, 2002 (10)
Jesus said: "My
people, todays Gospel says Ask and you shall receive. This is My promise to you, so when you need help, do not forget to call
on My Name. When the evil of your age gets worse, you will be
needing My help because you will not make it on your own. I have told you in the past when you see a world famine with people killing over food; a
schism in My Church; and mandatory chips in the hand being forced on people,
then call on Me and I will send your guardian angel to guide you to a safe
haven. There will be interim refuges at first
for immediate help. Then you will be drawn to final refuges of My Blessed
Mothers apparition sites, places of holy ground, or caves. It is those, who stay behind in their homes or other places, that could be caught and possibly martyred.
So do not be stubborn about waiting too long to leave or you may face capture
by the evil ones."
.
May 11, 2002
Jesus said: "At these refuges there will be a white luminous cross
overhead that will heal all diseases for those who look on this cross. There
will also be an angel of protection at each refuge who will also feed you My heavenly manna. Water will also be at these refuges and My angels and the crosses will remain throughout the
tribulation. I will provide for all of My faithfuls
needs in miraculous ways as I protected and provided for My people in the
Exodus."
.
May 1, 2002
Jesus said: "My
people, you are seeing the first stage of people
volunteering to take the chip in their hand. I have told you in the past
that smart cards were the forerunner of taking chips in the hand. I also said
that people would initially volunteer to take the chip in the hand. The second stage would be a secret forcing of people to
take chips in the hand or they would be taken to detention camps. At
these camps some would be martyred, tortured, or enslaved. All of those without
the chip would be outlaws. The terrorists' actions
will precipitate national ID cards and eventually mandatory chips in the hand
or face imprisonment. This stage of forced
chips, a schism in My Church, and world famine would be the time
to have your guardian angels guide you to the nearest refuge. This
time of tribulation was thought by some to be far off, but as events are
unfolding, these chips have become a reality and their being forced on people
is a near possibility. You have been warned not to be at your home when the one
world agents come to force the chip on you. I am
warning you now more than ever to have your backpacks ready to take off in a relative short time because the one
world people are close to a push for world takeover. 
Some
have not wanted to believe that they are in the end times or that chips in the
hand would even happen, but the reality of today's events are right before you.
Pray for My help in these days for I am the only one to protect your soul from
the evil ones."

Jesus said: "My people, this vision is a god of the dark side with its
source rooted in Egypt. Just as I came out of Egypt to go back to Israel, so the Antichrist will come out of Egypt on his road to
his public ministry that was intended for three or more years. I will shorten
this time of trial for the sake of My elect, but be
aware of this evil one who soon will be announcing his coming into power. Evil
will have its reign for a short time, but you can call
on Me for protection. It
is to avoid the influence of the Antichrist's demonic powers that I am having My angels guide you to places of refuge for protection.
These evil ones will want to kill My faithful to eliminate
My Church on earth, but the gates of hell will not prevail over My remnant
Church. Trust in Me during this age of apostasy
because your salvation and protection depend on Me only. Rejoice that when you
see the Antichrist announce his reign, then know that
My victory over all evil is near. It is like Scripture says,
you will not travel through the towns of Israel before I will come in
glory."
( . NB: We know that the Antichrist will
falsely claim to be the Christ. As such, he will have to appear to
satisfy Old Testament Prophecy. Hoseah prophesied:
"When Israel was a child, I loved him, and out of
Egypt I called my son." (Hos. 11:1) (Also, see Mt. 2:13-20)
-- On October 5, 2001,
Jesus enhanced the above prophecy by telling John Leary that "the Antichrist is an Arab and a religious leader". Additionally,
through Our Lady of La Salette we have been told that
the Antichrist will make Rome his seat.)
.
September 27, 2001
Jesus said: "My people, I have told you to prepare food, water, and fuel for the coming tribulation. Once events move to forcing chips in the hand, you will be called to seek your refuges by following your guardian angels. Have no fear of these difficult times because I will provide for your protection and your needs. You will have to place your full trust in Me just as the Israelites did in the Exodus. Call on My help and I will answer your prayer with miracles beyond your comprehension. I am allowing this test of your faith, but I will soon come in triumph to vanquish all of these evil ones."
.
September 1, 2001
Jesus said: "My people, man has prided himself on all of his structures and
cities, but as I condemned Jerusalem, so I will condemn those cities that
worship money and other gods. You have had many people get rich on the stock
market, but now the market is down and these same people are still expecting a
recovery. You will see a coming world depression that will humble all of the
rich and people will be fighting to eat and survive. The evil people will see
everything taken from them and jobs will be hard to find. My faithful will also
be stripped of their wealth, but I will feed and
protect you at My refuges. Those, who have set food aside for the tribulation, will have
it multiplied for those who are with them. I will also multiply your fuel so
you will remain warm in the cold
months(2). Have faith in Me
and My prophecies and your souls will be saved. My faithful will suffer much
persecution from the Antichrist, but in the end I will triumph and your
beautiful cities will be nothing but rubble."
.
August 31, 2001
Jesus said: "My
people, as you hear this Gospel reading of the five wise virgins and the five
foolish virgins, think of preparing for the end days both spiritually and
physically. This vision of several jars of food is not
speaking of large volumes of food to have on hand, but only something extra
that could be multiplied for a time. The most
important preparation for your judgment is to have your soul free from sin and
to have your blessed sacramentals for protection from the evil ones. As the world finances and food
supplies begin to deteriorate, life will get very chaotic and you will need
faith and trust in Me in many life threatening
situations. In all of your preparations it is better to leave your home than to
use weapons to protect your food and possessions. The worldly fight over these
things, but you must be an example of love even amidst those struggling to
survive. Do not be in any panic for your life, but be willing to give up your
life for your faith in Me. I
will look after you at My refuges, but saving
your souls is more important than saving your earthly lives. Encourage people
to love Me and keep their souls pure by frequent
Confession. Focus on preserving your spiritual life, for this will keep you on
track to your eternal destination in heaven."
.
August 21, 2001
Jesus said: "My people, many people are wondering how I will
protect them from the evil ones at the time of tribulation. When you have to go
into hiding from the Antichrist, I will have your guardian angels lead you to
the nearest safe haven of protection. My angels will make clear paths for you even in this
swampland where others could get lost. As in today's Gospel, I told My
disciples that a rich man would find it hard to be saved even as hard as
placing a camel through the eye of a needle of a four foot square. When they
were confused about who could be saved, I told them for man it seems
impossible, but for God all things are possible.
In the same way it may seem impossible to hide from
the Antichrist and his agents, but My miracles will
blind them and eventually destroy them. Trust
in Me to defeat your enemies as I fought for Israel. Just when all will seem hopeless, you will see My angels protect you and provide food, water, and shelter
for My faithful. You will have to trust in Me for everything because everything will be stripped from
you. It is when you accept Me in faith that I
will know your belief in Me is true and sincere. Be patient in this trial for a
short time and I will raise you up into a lasting rest with Me."
.
August 11, 2001
Jesus said: "My people, My angels will
lead you on your way to a place of refuge as the tribulation begins. I have
talked to you about interim refuges on the way to your final destination. Your guardian angels
will discern for you which houses are friendly to you when you are being
pursued by the Antichrist's agents. The people in these interim refuges will
take you in to hide you from the authorities and they will be risking their
lives to do so. My faithful will share their faith and their healing power with
those that you meet along your path into hiding. You will see souls converted
in your fleeing, for you will be able to emphasize the dangers of taking the
chip in the body. At
each place that you stop, pray for the people's souls there and pray to Me and I will multiply their food to help more travelers. Some people may not have to leave their homes
immediately because they will be acting as interim
refuges to help others in their flight to safety. Have faith and trust in Me to find
you places to stay on your way to your final place of refuge."
.
August 4, 2001
Jesus said: "My
people, when you go into hiding during the tribulation, I will have My angels lead you to the closest refuge of protection. I will make it so those searching for you will not be able
to see you even with their infra red night scopes. Their dogs will not be able
to track you. Even when they know the places of refuge, these smart troops will
not be able to sense your presence in any way. These proud soldiers will
be humbled by My miracles as the soldiers were humbled
at My Resurrection. Have trust in Me
that I will do the impossible for you in protecting you and feeding you.
The evil ones will be frustrated that they cannot harm you. Then once the
Antichrist comes to full power, I will send My comet
of destruction and My triumph will be complete over Satan, the Antichrist and
all of his agents
"
.
July 30, 2001
Jesus said: ."My people, I have
advised you before to have some bicycles ready that you may have to use when you go into hiding. You will need some safety helmets, so you are not stopped. You will see gasoline shortages again
as wars in the Mideast will threaten your oil supplies. Even more so as you
approach the time of the Antichrist, you will not have his chip which will be
needed to buy the gasoline. Without fuel your bicycles
may be your best means of transportation on back roads and dirt roads. It will be difficult to
bring much with you, so you will only have room for what you can carry.
Preparing yourself spiritually is most important for this trial which you will
have to endure. By prayer, fasting and Confession, you can both prepare your
soul and your body to go into hiding away from the Antichrists influence. Be
patient for a little while and you will have your reward when My triumph will vanquish all of these evil ones."
.
May 9, 2001
Jesus said: "My
people, for those, who are led to caves for a refuge
during the tribulation, you will be hidden in the ground as I had to wait three
days in the tomb. Death had no hold on Me, but
Scripture had to be fulfilled that I would rise three days later. Again the
days of the Antichrist are foretold as less than the three and one-half years
for the sake of My elect. Even though you will be
tested, death will have no hold on My faithful who
will not be martyred. All men are appointed to die once, but My protection will be
there in My angels to guard you from the evil."
.
April 3, 2001
Jesus said:
"My people, I am showing you an example of a refuge at a shrine of My
Blessed Mother during the tribulation. Some may wonder how it is possible to feed and
shelter My faithful when the Antichrist will have
weapons and means to search for you. Remember that with Me,
all things are possible.
I will permit some of My
faithful to be martyred for their faith, but I will also have My angels protect
those at My refuges. The angels will provide you My
heavenly Manna as I provided manna in the desert. They will also keep the evil ones from seeing you or harming you. This will be a miracle of My
protection as in the Exodus. During the tribulation, you will see a modern day
Exodus from the cities to My Blessed Mothers places of apparition and the
places of holy ground. Your diseases and epidemics will be healed at My white luminous crosses and water, food, and shelter will
be miraculously provided. Have trust and hope in My
help because I will not leave you orphans in your distress. Fear not the evil
ones, for you will see the glory of My victory as they will quickly be
vanquished." .

Louise now
receives a vision: "I even see fires around the country. I see floods. I
see a lot of major cities, they're not anymore. They're being either burnt or
flooded out, or bombed out. I see The Lord's refuges standing loud and clear and bright, but
people can't see them, they don't know where they are.
They're right in front of their noses, but they can't see them.
Jesus said: Not
everyone will have to go into caves, for not everyone can travel that far. For
many are crippled, some in body, that is their limbs are crippled, but others
are crippled because of diseases and they can't go. Then I will make those
refuges if you want your place to be a refuge, then
obey Me, and have that house consecrated to Me by a priest. A good priest! Have
that home blessed. Have your property blessed. And bless your cars. Bless
everything in My Name, and you will be safe. Do not obey Me,
and you will pay for it
"
.
.
Read the account in Acts
of the Apostles where St. Peter was freed by the angel without being detected
by guards that were present at the time. So it shall be when you are called
into hiding. A few years ago, a US pilot was shot down over Bosnia, and he
survived without being detected Later he told the American press that enemy
troops walked within a few feet of him while he was poorly hidden in some
bushes, and surprisingly he remained undetected.
He said that he was
praying the rosary at the time.
Note: Sadly, some people who have made the
consecrations will not respond when their guardian angels appear to them when
it is time to leave.
Additionally, the agents
of the Antichrist will not be able to detect the locations of the refuges no
matter how hard they try. On a number of occasions Soviet pilots were given
orders to bomb St. James church in Medjugorje Yugoslavia during the 1980s, but
could not locate it from the air using sophisticated equipment.
When to Flee to the Refuges
Jesus told us through John
Leary and Louise Tomkiel that we should call upon His Name when we see (1) a
world famine; (2) schism (division) in the Catholic Church; (3) mandatory
subdermal micro computer chips in the body; (4) mandatory vaccines for a
pandemic virus; and (5) martial law.
Also, we should call upon Jesus Name: (6) upon the failure of the
economy of the USA & its bankruptcy; (7) when the North American Union
(merging of Canada, USA & Mexico) takes place; (8) when the Antichrist
declares himself; (9) when people start dying in large numbers from pandemic
disease; (10) when riots for food begin; (11) when we see men in black trying to take captives in the
USA; (12) upon religious persecution; (13) when they threaten to kill
Christians; and (14) at the beginning of the Tribulation. At
such time, our guardian angels will lead us to the nearest refuge. We
will be invisible to evil men once we are underway traveling to the refuges
and while residing there. (cf. Acts 12)
Through John Leary, Jesus asked us to prepare His priests for the forthcoming
Tribulation by preparing them to flee to the refuges. He told us to be prepared to help guide the
priests with His help via prayer when He warns us that it is time to flee.
Once again, it is IMPERATIVE that we leave IMMEDIATELY upon being called by our
guardian angel. Those who fail to leave
immediately, will be captured by evil men, taken to the death camps and
martyred.
"The Lord knows how to rescue
the Godly from trial, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment until the day of judgment"
(2 Pt 2:9)
Remember, we have been told that as the forces of evil are allowed
to increase, so too will the forces of good be allowed to increase!
We will witness the miraculous!
Let everyone know that the days
of
Elijah are here
!

In a message to
Louise Tomkiel on August 26, 1999,
Jesus said: "The ship will sail at
midnight." It will not dock in familiar waters but in a port where all is
new, clean and peaceful. Make ready now for the hour of departure is at hand.
Only My own faithful Remnant will be able to understand and discern this
statement."
Join us in
making the consecrations, now
.We set sail soon.

An Act of Consecration to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary
I, (your name), a
faithless sinner-- renew and ratify today in thy hands, O Immaculate Mother,
the vows of my Baptism; I renounce forever Satan, his pomps
and works; and I give myself entirely to Jesus Christ, the Incarnate Wisdom, to
carry my cross after Him all the days of my life, and to be more faithful to
Him than I have ever been before.
In the presence
of all the heavenly court I choose thee this day, for my Mother and Mistress. I
deliver and consecrate to thee, as thy slave, my body and soul, my goods, both
interior and exterior, and even the value of all my good actions, past, present
and future; leaving to thee the entire and full right of disposing of me, and
all that belongs to me, without exception, according to thy good pleasure, for
the greater glory of God, in time and in eternity. Amen.
An Act of Consecration to the
Sacred Heart of Jesus
Most Sacred
Heart of Jesus, Abyss of Mercy and Source of every grace and blessing, I
consecrate and unite myself to You without exception or reserve - all that I am
and all that I have, both temporal and spiritual, past present and future,
through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, your Mother.
I leave myself entirely at Your disposal with complete
confidence in Your Mercy and Love and I beg You to look upon this offering of
my nothingness before You and to use me for Your own glory, for the honor of
Your Mother and for the salvation of souls. Help me to seek You
alone in all things. Hide me in the shelter of Your Most Sacred Heart and be my
only Consolation and Refuge.
Grant me the graces I need to joyfully accept Your Cross daily, to lead a holy
life and to die a holy death in Your service. Help me
to trust completely in Your Mercy and Love and never to fear to humbly throw
myself before the infinite Ocean of mercy which is Your Most Sacred Heart,
especially at those times when I may fail in my faithfulness in Your service. Through this weak and miserable instrument,
may Your Mercy, Love, glory and power shine forth.
Above all, set my poor heart on fire with the Flame of Love which burns in Your
Most Sacred Heart, and teach me how to return love for Love. Most Sacred Heart
of Jesus, have mercy on me - for I place all my trust in You.
How To
Save Your Children
During one of
the cenacles which Fr. Gobbi held in the United States, he was urged by many
concerned people to ask Our Lady specifically what could be done to save the
youth from the seductions of the world which were leading many of them astray
and causing them to leave the Church. Our Lady gave Fr. Gobbi this definite and
final solution to console the parents who are so concerned about the salvation
of their children:
|
|
Pray the Rosary ! |
|
|
Every time you pray the Rosary say: "With this Rosary I bind all my children to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.". |
|
|
In doing so, Our Lady promised "to see to their souls.". |
St. Joseph, the Protector
Through several private prophecies, yet-to-be-approved, we have
been told that St. Joseph has been given extended power during these End Times.
Remember that Our Heavenly Father thought enough of him to have him protect His Incarnate Son, and Our Blessed Mother.
The Memorare
Remember, O
most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your
protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To
you I come; before you I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word
Incarnate! Despise not my petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer me.
Amen.

This is similar to the message of Jesus to St. Faustina: "I want you to become like a knight experienced in battle, who can give orders to others amid the exploding shells. In the same way, my child, you should know how to master yourself amid the greatest difficulties, and let nothing drive you away from Me, not even your falls." (#1823) |

Fr.
Stefano Gobbi received messages from Our Lady from 1973 - 1997 (25 years). His messages carry IMPRIMATURS from many Cardinals,
Archbishops, and Bishops of the Catholic Church. Three of the Cardinals are:
the late Cardinal Echeverria of Ecuador, Cardinal Vidal of the Philippines
and Cardinal Mikai of Thailand. While the Imprimatur is not a declaration of authenticity of the messages being received from Our Lady, it does assure the reader that the messages are FREE FROM DOCTRINAL ERROR - i.e. they do not contain anything, which is contrary to the Catholic faith or morals. |
