“I am worried by the Blessed Virgin’s messages to Lucy of Fatima. This persistence of Mary about the dangers which menace the Church is a divine warning against the suicide of altering the Faith, in Her liturgy…” – Prophesy of Pope Pius XII

The Age of the Church’s Triumph

The Prophets and Our Times

A. Church and State: When the Great Monarch has achieved total victory there shall be on earth only One Emperor and twelve monarchs. The Emperor shall be supreme in things temporal, the pope in things spiritual.

B. Things spiritual:

1. When God has ended the confusion a new world begins similar to its first state, a world dominated by the Kingdom of God. Satan is bound many years.

2. The Church is reorganize, Apostolic discipline is restored, and religious orders are reestablished and flourish, as do vocations, chiefly among the workers and poor, penance and good works abound. At first the state helps finance worship but apparently the Pope puts the church on a freewill offering basis, for the most part.

3. It then falls to the lot of the Holy See and the Church to rebuild society. Accordingly the Pope will lead the bishops in a crusade of instruction. Some speak of twelve apostles of the new age and other marvelous things connected with a campaign of this nature. It will be realized that failure to preach God’s word previously had resulted in the punishments. Thus the Gospel will be preached in all lands. This is the age of the triumph of the Church, happy those who live to see it. The people will be like the primitive Christians and unbelievers seeing the Church’s glory will flock into her. Heresy will disappear at least in so far as it is organized, also schism; certainly they will lose government support. In some instances whole nations will become Catholic. Many heathen also will be converted. (It would seem, however, that many, but not all Jews— q.v.—would join the church).

4. Concerning specific nations then are the following items: Arabs or Asiatics or both make an attempt against Europe. Poland is in the fray. They fail and one army is driven into the far east while the other (Mohammedan) retires into North Africa. The Moslems become Christian, also the Chinese (Tartars) and other heathens. The Greeks and the Russians return to the Church. England loses her Eastern colonies and ceases to be a great power but she returns to the Church which again flourishes there. Ireland is in some way instrumental in this. After Germany is defeated, disarmed, and dismembered, she returns to Christian unity and monarchy. A four-nation Slav Federation with the Capitol at Warsaw and with St. Andrew Bobola as patron plays an important role against Asiatics and Moslems, and in the new Christian world. Belgium, Spain, France (despite her sins), and other Catholic nations laid waste in war and persecution, regain their sovereignty and something more, but nations which have irreparably lost the true faith disappear.

So, as the reign of the Great Monarch progresses Christian Unity is achieved, apparently even to the point where it can be said that there is but one Flock and one Shepherd.

VI. THE SIXTH EPOCH OF TIME: After this period in which all nations submit to the Church, especially after the Turks submit, the sixth epoc draws to a close. Christians will not appreciate the graces of the sixth epoc of time. Fervor grows cold; darkness, crime, and revolt gradually increase till evil is worse than before. God releases Lucifer and Hell. The False Prophet, precursor of Anti-Christ, appears. The people will have been especially lax concerning Confirmation (sacrament of the Holy Ghost who dominates the sixth period of time) and it will be especially the unconfirmed who fall into the snares of the False Prophet. Then comes the Anti-Christ.

VII. JEWS AND THE LATTER TIMES.

A. Causes: By reason of God’s promises to the fathers, and for a purpose worthy of God Himself, the Jews shall not be entirely cast off or destroyed.

B. Time:
a. Jerusalem shall be downtrodden; and the Jews shall live under alien God-willed rule, without King or priesthood, many days, indeed, so long that they will have forgotten their lands, tribes, and tongue.

b. But in the fullness of the time of the Gentiles, also called the time of the nations and the latter days, times, or ages, but more often the last days or end of the world, or more precisely when the following conditions are fulfilled:

1. When there is no peace on earth
2. When Jews, having abandoned farms, do evil in general or some very great and particular evil
3. and are being or have been severely punished as a result
4. When in Germany there are few, if indeed any Jews, but apparently many in England.
5. When the power of the Turk is broken.
6. When there are many false Christs
7. And on the other hand, when the Jews have begun to return to God and to serve Him and to cry again to Him for liberation from captivity or persecution in a strange land.

C. Salvation:
1. This time God will not turn a deaf ear. A (large) remnant of the Jews, meaning either all God-fearing Jews, or all surviving Jews, shall be gathered from the north country, the east and the west, many if not all lands, yes, even from the ends of the earth, back into their own land, the land of Abraham, now called Palestine. This return is facilitated by the Great Monarch.

2. The Great Monarch or the Great Pope shall reestablish the Kingdom of Jerusalem give it to the Jews as the rightful owners. They may again have a king as of old. Jerusalem will be rebuilt; also the Temple or House of the Lord, but it will not be like the former one; yet the Ark, Tabernacle, and Altar of Insense will be found. This nation of the Jews will be mighty.

3. God will make a new covenant with His people. They will acknowledge the Messiah and His rule. Under the Great Pope they, enjoying tranquility, will become Christians.
(Prophecy 139 says the conversion of the Jews is reserved till the end of time. It is probable that, whereas many Jews will become Christians under the Great Monarch and Great Pope (prophecy 34d), the conversion of the Jewish nation will take place only after it has been fooled by AntiChrist whom at first it will consider the Messiah. Prophecy 19a may mean that the Son of Man comes (q.v.) before all Jews are converted.), but as Christians they will not lose the distinction of being Jews. At this time Satan (the Chief Cause of Evil) will be bound in all the world (This to occur after AntiChrist).

4. Thereafter till the end of time the Jews will serve God very well. They will be happy and enjoy peace, and material prosperity. They will henceforth neither be persecuted in the nations, nor disturbed in the possession of their own land.

VIII. NOTIONS SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS GENERATION:

1. People in our times (especially those who need them) pay no heed to divine warnings. There are few devout souls. God’s wrath is about to strike in the form of great suffering, including war, plague, flames, famine, and especially a “yellow fog” over Europe. Men and beasts will perish. Prayer will no longer delay divine justice but it will aid dying sinners, help individuals in their sufferings, and bring trouble to a quicker end. The devotions recommended for these things are: To the Precious Blood, Rosary, Queen of the Angels, Immaculate Heart, Perpetual Adoration.

2. The war begins under Pius XI. The will involve persecution of the Church. The persecution is connected with a hooked cross or hook and cross which can mean either the swastika of the Nazi or the hook (sickle) and cross (hammar shaped like the tau cross) of the Communists. The reigning pope dies in exile. The Immaculate Conception saves France and Italy from the worse. For other countries involved… The Time is designated as beginning already before 1936. Germany is marked for defeat by Russia in 1943.(Events have proved these prophecies false.) When the land of the great fleet enters the Mediterranean it is the time to expect great suffering in Europe. The war ends with a miracle. As result of all this Europe will be too large for the survivors. In fact there will be few men on earth.

3. The Pope will gather the remnant, among them many saints. The Dominicans and Franciscans will preach and turn the world back to Christ. There will be many Crusader volunteers of a new and Christian society. It will take about a generation to instruct in the new order. The era of the peace of Christ begins in the United States. Men will be like the early Christians. Then will be a great return to the land. The powerful industrial organizations will collapse. Monasteries and convents will flourish as never before. Mary will triumph and peace will reign.
