Questions About Fatima

[Angels_Unaware]

In case anyone else wonders about the number 13…

I thought of this, too. In Revelations, the number of God is 7 the number of Man is 6. 6+7=13, which could possibly be interpreted as God with Us.

Laura,

Thank you for your kind words and wishes.

I believe the Holy Spirit guided you with these words meant just for me. My prayers never go unanswered and the Spirit used you to give me my answer.

I think that the Holy Spirit is responding to your honest and humble search for the truth about Our Lady, His well beloved Spouse. May He continue to bless you always.

To Jesus through Mary

Hislittlelady,

The second problem I had was that she does not appear to offer worship to God in any of her revelations, but she asks for devotion to her Immaculate Heart.

.

It might help to have an understanding of what was going on in the church at the time of the apparitions. This might help to understand why she asked devotion to her “Immaculate Heart”.

The church has held many beliefs but not all were declared as dogma. At Lourdes, at the time when the teaching that Mary was conceived without sin was being challenged. Our Lady told Bernadette that she was “The Immaculate Conception”. This title was unheard of at that time among the people.

Also, regarding instructing the children of Fatima to worship God, It was to the children of Fatima that the angel appeared with the Sacred Host and taught them the prayer:
Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore Thee profoundly.
I offer Thee the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the Tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifferences by which He is offended.
And through the infinite merits of His Most Sacred Heart, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners
