THE END OF THE WORLD


As till now all the forecasts made by the Prophecy of the Popes were fulfilled, also the final phrase of the Prophecy acquire a new light and would indicate that the end of the world is quite imminent. But how much imminent? And how would it happen?

Now we'll see the answer to these questions using this Prophecy, but after this - with extremely interesting results - we'll broaden our horizon to other prophecies contained in famous (and not or less famous) apparitions by Our Lady for a checking, a comparison and, expecially, to know more about "when" and "how".  

I remember you that the final phrase of the Prophecy of the Popes is the following: "In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Petrus Romanus, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations; after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people". 

Many people thinked that this phrase referred to a 112th Pope, even if the phrases describing the Popes are 111. Indeed, the Prophecy doesn't number the Popes and doesn't mention at all a 112th Pope. The various descripting sentences are listed one below the other, and below the last sentence,
De gloriae olivae, there is the just here cited phrase about the Petrus Romanus. In the most ancient document in which the phrase on the Petrus Romanus is reported, it appears so close to the sentence of De gloria olivae that they are probably the description of the same Pope. The illusion of the existence of a 112th Pope would be, in other words, a tragical trap in which felt almost all the people who interpreted the Prophecy in the past.

But it is mainly what emerges from the singular "coincidences" described in the homonymous section of this website, and from some recent facts reported by the chronicles (see, for them, the Last News section), to make us think that De Gloria Olivae and the Petrus Romanus are the same person, i.e. the same Pope. Let see why.

First of all, we have to reflect on what Peter (indeed, "Petrus" is Peter in Latin) means for the Church: he was the first "Pope" after Jesus came, like De gloria olivae is the first Pope after that sort of "reincarnated Jesus" represented by Joannes Paulus II (let think to the attempt and to the various "coincidences"...). Like there is a very large distance in "greatness" between  Peter I (i.e. Petrus I) and Jesus, similarly there is a very large distance between Pope Ratzinger and Pope Wojtyla. In other words, Peter I (Petrus I): Jesus = Pope Ratzinger : Pope Wojtyla "the great". So, it's quite natural conclude that
De gloria olivae, i.e. Pope Ratzinger would be the “Peter II” (or Petrus II) cited in the final phrase of the Prophecy, or, equivalently, the Pope "closing the circle", i.e. the last Pope in the History.

Therefore, an important question is the following: can Pope Wojtyla be considered a sort of "New Jesus" came on the Earth? (Please, note that I use these expressions quite strong only because I want to be more clear). Each of us remebering the Tv non-stop resuming the main events of Wojtyla's extraordinary pontificate was surely impressed by this man and by his impact on the people also in the final days of his life. However, even apart from this kind of consideration and from personal emotions (not too objective) and from any kind of "miracles" (who decided not to consider)  it seems that the Sky amused itself giving us many "signs" indicating, expecially if considered as a whole, how Joannes Paulus II was a very "special" Pope.  

We have already described those "signs", and we stress the following: (1) the coincidence of date (May 13) and hour between the attempt to Wojtyla and the first apparition of Our Lady of Fatima, for not to mention all the other little and great "circumstances" linking Pope Joannes Paulus II to the story or to the people of Fatima; (2) the fact that Wojtyla's pontificate was the longest after that of Peter and of the great Pio XI, born on May 13; (3) the fact that the hour of Wojtyla's death consists of the only two numbers which multiplied each other give the number meaning the "perfection" in numerology; (4) the fact that a phenomenon regarding the Sun join the death of Jesus, tha apparition of Fatima and both the arrive and the good-bye of Wojtyla on this planet. In those sense, the "coincidences" are like the pieces of a puzzle that only in those last years we can "see".

But there is an other very important reason for which, independently from the reflections made here, we can say that Benedict XVI is the last Pope in the History, or, equivalently, that De gloria olivae and the Petrus romanus are the same Pope. We'll see this reason in the following lines, interpreting some recent events.

ARE WE CLOSE TO THE END OF THE WORLD?

The answer to this question seems to be largely contained in the Prophecy of the Popes:
"In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church there will reign Petrus Romanus, who will feed his flock amid many tribulations; after which the seven-hilled city will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people".

"The final persecution of the Holy Roman Church" and the "tribulations" could be those unfold by the words of Benedict XVI on Mohammed in his lectio magistralis held at the University of Ratisbona, Germany, on September 12, 2006, and considered an heavy offense to the Islamic world. In the days followed to this talk, indeed, succedeed many facts resembling the persecutions against the Christians made two thousands of years ago: a Christian church was burned at Tulkarem (Palestine); the Italian sister Leonella was killed in Mogadiscio (Somalia); in Indonesia three Christians, accused of the massacre of 200 Muslims in interreligious fightings, were killed, but their execution occurred after a trial characterized by heavy irregularities, like testimoniances not listened and proves not accepted.   

Moreover, always after that talk held by Pope Ratzinger, very serious minaces against the Pope himself and the Vatican came from terroristic groups, and these minaces might become reality in the future. On September 15, 2006, the armed group
Jaiech al-Moudjahidine, an Iraqi cell of Al Qaeda, with a press release apperaed on the Web, minaced to attack Rome and the Vatican due to the words pronounced by Benedict XVI on Islam and the Holy War. "We swear to destroy the Crosses in the heart of Rome - the terrorists wrote - We will not have peace till your thrones and your crosses will be destroyed". "We will appear again with fact, not with words" the press release continued. Other minaces: "Let know that the soldierds of Mohammed will come, soon or later, to shake your throne from the foundations of your State" could be read in a message by the armed Iraqi group Asaeb al Iraq al Jihadiya (League of the jihadists in Iraq) sent to the Pope.

The here reported minaces regard the Pope ad the Vatican as physical place. Hence, the "beginning of the end" perhaps might be a serious attempt provocating the death of the Pope and/or the physical destruction of a part or of the entire Vatican.  However, in the Prophecy of the Popes it is not clear whether Rome, the "seven-hilled city", will be destroyed by the man or by God. In the first case, we should expect like "sign" of the beginning of the end an attempt against the Pope and/or the physical Vatican Headquarter, while in the second case it is not clear which premonitory "sign" to expect, apart from the final persecution and the tribulations which seem begun with the unlucky speech of Pope Ratzinger in Germany, but that we don't know how long will last... However, are quite worrying the words pronounced by Pope Benedict XVI before his journey in Germany (September 2006), when he said: "It's probably the last journey that I can do in my Country. [..] I'm old and I don't know how much time the Lord will give to me".

END OF THE WORLD: "WHEN" AND "HOW"?

This is, obviously, the question and the topic most interesting of this website, both to our thesis that Ratzinger would be the last Pope in the History. But this last is a thesis (with many strong indications showing it should be true against any indication in the opposite direction!), while the "when" and "how" of the end of the world, something only touched in the Prophecy of the Popes, are, as a matter of fact, more directly mentioned in some other prophecies made by Our Lady during apparitions occurred in the XXI Century.

As a matter of fact, today that the Prophecy of the Popes is terribly actual, and that each of us wants to know more about the "when" and "how", make checkings, and so one, the most useful thing is reading the prophecies made by Our Lady in her various apparitions occured in the last two centuries. Luckly, even if these apparitions were very numerous, only in a few of them there are interesting prophecies regarding the "when" and "how": all the other apparitions doesn't have at all or are redundant, i.e. they don't give new information. We emphasize in detail the information emerging from these apparitions about the "when" and "how", respectively, in the section about the apparitions of Medjugorje-Garabandal and in the section The other Apparitions, that we advice to read after the page Fatima, about the homonymous apparitions and the famous Third Secret.

But here we want resume in a very few words two important results on the "when" and "how" emerging from this investigation, and representing the better introduction to these two sections:
  • WHEN. Our Lady, in one of her apparitions at Medjugorje, said that "When the apparitions cease at Medjugorje, they will cease at all other Marian apparition sites. When this occurs, the events describred in the secrets [..] will begin unfold". Luckly, the Virgin continues to appear at Medjugorje on the day 25 of every month (check here if She appeared also in the last month leaving, as usually, a message for us). For details, see the final part of the section Medjugorje-Garabandal.
  • HOW. Combining the various prophecies by Our Lady, we find a clear and coherent vision about the "how": there will be (1) a GREAT CATACLISM-WARNING/S (first punition originating on Earth: terrible war + "minor warnings" including natural catastrophes), followed by (2) a GREAT MIRACLE-SIGN (mainly, a big Crux in the sky), followed by (3) a PUNISHMENT (the second, this time from the sky, given through a celestial body). For all the many details, see the section The other Apparitions.

THE DEVIL'S ADVOCATE...

Here you'll find the classical objection by a skeptical person......


1) Why should I worry for the Prophecy of the Popes? It's only prophecy...

The St. Malachy's Prophecy is extremely worrying due to its perfect concordance with the historical reality and due to the final phrase. Moreover, it is in concordance with some other famous catastrophic prophecies regarding the end of the world. These other prophecies are not so clearly true as the Prophecy of the Popes by St. Malachy is, which in this sense is absolutely unique. But it's impressive to note how this new "pieces" perfectly combine with the others confirming, in some way, the Prophecy of the Popes. The fact we take into account all these prophecies as realistic is not strange at all, because all the Christians know that Jesus speaks through the prophets, as the famous prayer "Nicene Creed" says:
«...With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified. He has spoken through the Prophets. We believe in the holy catholic and apostolic Church...».


2) Can you give an example of these prophecies in "perfect concordance" with the Prophecy of the Popes?

According the famous Prophecy "of the three Popes" of Garabandal, Pope Wojtyla corresponds to the last Pope before the "END OF THE TIMES". Indeed, on December 20, 1962, Our Lady revealed to the Spanish little girl Conchita Gonzales, during one of her many apparitions, a "secret" that the girl told the mother on June 3, 1963, when Pope Joannes XXIII died. Conchita said clearly to her mother:
«Now only three Popes remain». «But how do you know it?», asked her the mother. «Our Lady said it to me». «Then is the end of the world  going to come?». «Our Lady didn't speak of "end of the world", but of "END OF THE TIMES"». «And which is the difference?». «I don't know. She said that after this Pope will remain other three, then the "END OF THE TIMES" will arrive. So, accordind to such prophecy, after Pope Wojtyla should come the "END OF THE TIMES": therefore, we can conclude that this tragic phase of the History, forecasted also by Joannes in the Apocalypse, will start during the apostolate of the Pope following the "three", i.e. Benedict XVI or Pope Ratzinger, in perfect concordance with St. Malachy's Prophecy.


3) What does make credible this last prophetic announce?

Our Lady spoke about this topic during an ecstasy of Conchita. The words of Our Lady were the answer to a question posed by the girl, saying this: «Mercedes (the writer Mercedes Sali­sachn),that according the St. Malachy Prophecy, remain only two Popes». So, the prophetic announce came in reply to a clearly wrong interpretation of the St. Malachy's Prophecy, and was always confirmed by Conchita als in a written form. So, it 's not reasonable that this message could be the fruit of a  delirium or a fraud. Hence, at Garabandal, since 1963, we were warned  that we are arriving to decisive hours, perhaps the last that the clock of the History will have... And, as we'll see in the next sections, the details provided by Our Lady during her many apparitions all over the world are very interesting in such sense.
