“What shall remain in the wake of this war, in the midst of which we are living now?”

 

Does Pope Francis’s latest question, discussed in Part One, find its answer in the apparitions of Our Lady of the Rosary at Fatima?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Putting together some of the thoughts of Pope Francis from Part One of this set:

https://www.academia.edu/18657854/Medjugorje_and_the_Mad_Mouthings_of_the_Madonna_of_the_Antichrist we find that people can allow themselves to be led by the confusing spirit of curiosity, the petty news of the day, contrary to the enlightening wisdom of God.

Amongst the pious, this spirit is exemplified by false manifestations of the Virgin Mary, acting like ‘a postmistress arriving with daily messages’, and for years on end.

Generally speaking the modern world, looking in all the wrong places, and following a faulty timetable, has allowed itself to be deceived, prompting Pope Francis to parallel the weeping of Jesus Christ over Jerusalem to His weeping now over a ‘whole world at war’.

For neither the world then, nor now, had recognized the time of its visitation, had understood what makes for peace: 

 

“Today Jesus weeps as well: because we have chosen the way of war, the way of hatred, the way of enmities. We are close to Christmas: there will be lights, there will be parties, bright trees, even Nativity scenes – all decked out – while the world continues to wage war. The world has not understood the way of peace.”

 

The Role of ISIS and other

Instruments of Decadence

 

God can and does use hostile and un-Godly powers that have their own agenda to advance his own sublime purposes. Thus Isaiah 10 describes the pagan Assyrian power under Sennacherib (c. 700 BC) as a purging instrument being wielded by the Lord against his own apostate people:

“Woe to the Assyrian, the rod of my anger,

in whose hand is the club of my wrath!

I send him against a godless nation,

I dispatch him against a people who anger me,

to seize loot and snatch plunder,

and to trample them down like mud in the streets.

 

Of course Sennacherib - no more than the caliph of ISIS - is aware of this fact, which does not accord at all with his own agenda of out and out conquest and destruction:

 

But this is not what he intends,

this is not what he has in mind;

his purpose is to destroy,

to put an end to many nations.

 

‘Are not my commanders all kings?’ he says.

    ‘Has not Calno fared like Carchemish?

Is not Hamath like Arpad,

and Samaria like Damascus?

 

[For ISIS, we could put it something like this:

Is not Raqqa like Mosul,

and Ramadi like Palmyra?]

 

10 As my hand seized the kingdoms of the idols,

kingdoms whose images excelled those of Jerusalem and Samaria—

11 shall I not deal with Jerusalem and her images

as I dealt with Samaria and her idols?’”

 

Now Isaiah goes on to tell what Yahweh actually has in mind, at the appropriate time:

 

12 When the Lord has finished all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I will punish the king of Assyria for the willful pride of his heart and the haughty look in his eyes. 13 For he says:

 

“‘By the strength of my hand I have done this,
    and by my wisdom, because I have understanding.
I removed the boundaries of nations,
    I plundered their treasures;
    like a mighty one I subdued[a] their kings.
14 As one reaches into a nest,
    so my hand reached for the wealth of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
    so I gathered all the countries;
not one flapped a wing,
    or opened its mouth to chirp.’”

 

In the mind of the Great King of Assyria, this is all his own doing, by his own power, assisted by his pagan gods. Little did he realise that he was, all along, merely an “ax”, or a “saw”, or a “rod”, or a “club”, in the mighty hands of God. And so God poses the questions:  

 

15 Does the ax raise itself above the person who swings it,
    or the saw boast against the one who uses it?
As if a rod were to wield the person who lifts it up,
    or a club brandish the one who is not wood!


Sennacherib and his Assyrians, having served their purpose, will now reap the bitter harvest that their blasphemies have deserved (as will ISIS ultimately):

 

16 Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
    will send a wasting disease upon his sturdy warriors;
under his pomp a fire will be kindled
    like a blazing flame.
17 The Light of Israel will become a fire,
    their Holy One a flame;
in a single day it will burn and consume
    his thorns and his briers.
18 The splendor of his forests and fertile fields
    it will completely destroy,
    as when a sick person wastes away.
19 And the remaining trees of his forests will be so few
    that a child could write them down.

 

ISIS apparently has far greater ambitions than Sennacherib the Assyrian could ever have dreamed of. For, according to: http://www.hngn.com/articles/134691/20150929/isis-nuclear-weapons-terrorist-group-plans-kill-hundreds-millions-largest.htm

 

ISIS Nuclear Weapons: Terrorist Group Plans To Kill Hundreds Of Millions In 'Largest Religious Cleansing In History,' Says Report


 

German journalist Jurgen Todenhofer compared ISIS to a "nuclear tsunami preparing the largest religious cleansing in history."

….

"They are the most brutal and most dangerous enemy I have ever seen in my life," German journalist Jurgen Todenhofer said of ISIS. "I don't see anyone who has a real chance to stop them. Only Arabs can stop IS. I came back very pessimistic." ….  

The Islamic State group (ISIS) is planning to use nuclear weapons to launch a global assault on anyone who holds differing religious beliefs – all in the name of worshipping Allah, according to German journalist Jurgen Todenhofer, who in 2014 was the first western reporter allowed to embed with the terrorist outfit and live to tell about it, spending 10 days in Mosul in northern Iraq with its fighters.

"The terrorists plan on killing several hundred million people," Todenhofer, 74, writes in his book, "Inside IS - Ten Days in the Islamic State," which details his findings, reported the U.K.'s Daily Express.

"The west is drastically underestimating the power of ISIS. ISIS intends to get its hands on nuclear weapons," he added, comparing the group to a "nuclear tsunami preparing the largest religious cleansing in history." ….

Fatima

 

And they may even be allowed to achieve some of their boldest ambitions.

That brings us back to Fatima.

Does it provide us with any clues as to what we might expect?

The answer lies in the Third Fatima Secret, according to


 

“Pope Francis: World War III has begun –


Third Secret of Fatima gives warning”


 

By Marshall Connolly, Catholic Online (CALIFORNIA NETWORK)

 

11/19/2015 ….

 

“Pope Francis has invoked World War III, saying that it has begun in a piecemeal fashion. The Third Secret of Fatima could provide Christians a framework for considering this terrifying new development”.

 

(The Third Secret of Fatima has been encapsulated in the following picture):

So far, however, the proper interpretation of this Secret has been difficult to achieve and somewhat confusing.

What is not confusing, however, is Our Lady of Fatima’s direct statement in 1917:

 

“The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer,

various nations will be annihilated."

 

I think that this must be a general kind of answer, without fine details, to the Pope’s question:

“What shall remain in the wake of this war, in the midst of which we are living now?”

 

With a combination of decadent west and decadent ISIS, the stage is set for apocalyptic chaos. Pessimistically, but not unrealistically, Canadian Mark Steyn has proclaimed that (http://www.google.com.au/url?url=http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/opinion/islami):

 

Islamisation will wash away the west

The West cannot win this thing with a schizophrenic strategy of targeting things and people, but not targeting the ideology, of intervening ineffectually overseas and not intervening at all when it comes to the remorseless ­Islamisation and self-segregation of large segments of their own countries.
So I say again: what’s the happy ending here? Because if Francois Hollande isn’t prepared to end mass Muslim immigration to Europe, then his “pitiless war” isn’t serious.

And, if they’re still willing to tolerate Merkel’s mad plan to reverse Germany’s demographic death spiral through fast-track Islamisation, then Europeans aren’t serious.

In the end, the decadence of Merkel, Hollande, Cameron and the rest of the fin de civilisation Western leadership will cost you your world and everything you love. So screw the candle-light vigil.
