Yes that’s true. But then she did appear to call down fire from heaven at Fatima .
 
The NABRE suggests that the two probably represent the Universal Church especially the martyrs. http://www.usccb.org/bible/revelation/11
Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff and I was told, “Come and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count those who are worshiping in it. Revelations 11:1
This is passage is very meaningful these days as the Faithful persevere.

No, Moses and Elijah appeared with Jesus on the mountain during the Transfiguration.
 
Well. it seems to be Church teaching that the two witnesses are , in fact, Enoch and Elijah.
Who am I to disagree with the Church Fathers ?
 
Thanks for that reminder that in the end, we win.
Have you heard about the possible schism looming in the Orthodox Community ?
 
After a succession of hot, sultry days in the summer, we sense there must be a storm before the cool days come back again.
Similarly, in these days of confusion, there is an intuition of impending catastrophe, a feeling that some immense preternatural disturbance must bring the evil of the world to ruins before we can be set free again.

As Degoncourt told Berthelot, who had posted of the future destructiveness of war through physics: “When that day comes, God as a night-watchman will come down from Heaven, rattling His keys, saying ‘Gentlemen! It is closing time!” ~Bishop Fulton Sheen, Peace of a Soul~
Justice is a joy to the innocent; but Truth torments the guilty. Proverbs 21:15
 
Has anyone read this book?

One hundred years ago, Fr. Arminjon predicts “It will be as in the days of Noah, when men lived without a care, built luxurious homes, and mocked Noah as he built his ark.”

“Civilization will be at its zenith, markets overflowing with money, and stocks will never have been higher. Mankind, wallowing in unprecedented material prosperity, will have ceased to hope for heaven. Crudely attached to pleasures, man will say ‘My soul, you have goods to last for many years. Eat, drink and be merry.’ ”

Doesn’t that sound eerily like America just a year or so ago?

Fr. Arminjon insists that we “steer clear of every perilous opinion and make no assertion that is not justified by Tradition and the doctrine of the Fathers.” Yet it’s precisely his sober reliance on Scripture and Tradition that makes this book so convincing . . . and so chilling!

But Fr. Arminjon doesn’t merely sketch the darkness ahead; he also shows how Jesus will fill that darkness with light; and he details the rich bounty Christ has in store for the faithful.
just downloaded it on kindle.
 
Same here. Good reading, but doesn’t have a lot of action. Not really a page-turner.
 
ham hocks

😃

P.S. I’m on the “Purgatory” chapter in that book, too…

I found this book to be helpful, surprisingly not in its description of the end times, but in how it describes hell. The reality of hell and how much it sucks really struck me after reading that part. We need to really work out our salvation, and work for the salvation of souls, was my main take away.
 
The late Malachi Martin said that the 3rd Secret of Fatima has a part which is about Ukraine and Russia. Just take a look at what is happening now with Russia and Ukraine in the news
