Have you guys heard of her before? She is a supposed end-time prophet for Christ. I used to believe that she was a prophet but now I’m much more skeptical.

Thoughts?
 
She is an unapproved private revelation in the Catholic Church.
 
I did read the statement. I still believe she speaks the truth, because a lot of what she has said as been proved to come true, like what I wrote above. In the messages she records, Jesus says she would be rejected, even by good-meaning servants of God, which has happened throughout history to true prophets.

Please, please read the messages before you dismiss them. Even if just for the purpose of finding theological fault in them (like the archbishop said there was).
 
Bishops can be wrong and have been wrong many times throughout our Church history.
Please read them yourself. Ask God to help you discern if they are true or not. Then make a decision for yourself, rather then allowing someone else to make a decision for you.
The reason I say this is because the content of these messages is urgent. If it truly is Jesus communicating to us (which I believe it is) it would be a grave mistake to simply dismiss the things He is saying.

It doesn’t matter what you think. The only thing that matters is the position of the Church which you as a Catholic must obey.

You are putting a private revelation, and your own interpretation of it, above Sacred Scripture, Tradition, and the Magisterium of the Church?

I do agree that messages such as these may be enticing, and considering things going on in the Church and the world may seem helpful and prophetic, but in no way can an unapproved revelation be followed over the teaching authority of the Church.

Perhaps some of these false prophecies are a test to the faithful, to see if they follow the Church or can be lured away into secret revelations.

You are correct to be skeptical. There are a number of issues with her and her “prophecies.” As I recall, Jimmy Akin has an article about it – google for that.
If you’re interested in private revelations, stick with ones the Church has approved.
 
The problem with “world ending” prophecies isn’t that they are necessarily untrue, but that people form an unhealthy attachment to them. Some people form small communities and close in on themselves while “awaiting the apocalypse”. It’s contrary to the Gospel. It can be contrary to loving your neighbour. It can keep people locked in fear of an anticipated event. It can negatively affect how these people will live their lives because instead of making sure they are “loving God and loving their neighbour” they are focused on future things and not present thing. (Holiness is in the moment)

Jesus will come again, that’s true. But if everyday, you wake early,and walk to the mountain and wait, staring at the sky, instead of volunteering at the homeless shelter or hospice… you are missing out on Christ that you can see every single day in the wounded faces of your brothers and sisters.
