THE
HEAVENLY APPARITIONS AND THE MESSAGES IN THE PLAN OF GOD OVER THIS
HUMANITY
Palmarians
are eminently Marian Apostles, devoted to the work of helping Maria in her
task of saving souls. The extraordinary graces of the Marian Places of
Apparitions are mystical phenomena most especially reserved for the 19th
and 20th centuries. We can
observe in these graces an exquisite sign of the Queen’s concern for the
salvation of her “errant children” who live in these times.
The Spiritual Maternity of Mary embraces all souls, whom she wishes to save as the fruit of her Co-reparation and Co-redemption with Jesus on Calvary. The Apparitions are a penultimate advice of heaven, given the gravity of humanity’s deplorable spiritual state before God, prior to heaven’s last recourse to the Warning, the Miracle and the Chastisement recorded in Garabandal.
This
intervention, unfortunately, man will bring upon his own head, given that
the majority have consistently ignored Heaven’s order to return to
Prayer, Penance and the Christian Life as a necessary condition to
mitigate the Chastisements.
Palmar
de Troya, in its day a Place
of Apparitions, was not to be distinguished from the other places until
its sublime mission was revealed. The mission of El Palmar de Troya was
none other than to be a place of refuge for THE CHURCH, THE PAPACY, and
THE HIERARCHY, which were to leave Rome by divine command on the death of
Pope Paul VI.
This
mission is what has made Palmar de Troya so important in the plan of
heaven. For it was no less
than the prophesy of the Church in the desert, fulfilling Apocalypse 12.
v. 14. The Woman -- the
Church, or Maria with the Church -- flew to the desert in 1978 on the
death of Paul VI. The period
between 1968 and 1978 is strictly the preparatory period for the Church
coming, which period we are now to review in detail.
The
seers who were selected as instruments to relay the Divine messages were
from various social backgrounds. The
principals were Maria Luisa Vila, Maria Marin, Jose Navarro, Antonio
Romero, Arsenia Llanos, Manuel Fernandez, Antonio Arenillos and Clemente
Dominguez y Gomez.
The
seers in the course of the period of the apparitions were participants in
numerous visible stigmatisations, ecstatic walks, and copious bleedings
usually associated with Holy Week. These are mystical participations in
the Passion. The reception of the Child Jesus in the arms of the seers for
adoration by the onlookers, combined with the odours
of Mystical perfumes, were the more unusually rare mystical
phenomena manifested..
There
were witnessed frequent visible mystical Communions, locutions, private
revelations and messages. The whole gambit that Mystical Theology
describes occurred at one time or another in the Sacred Place. I can
personally testify to the truth of these “Phenomena,” having myself
been a privileged witness on many occasions and been able to study at
first hand these mystical happenings.
The
persistence of these extraordinary deeds and the fidelity to the
Traditional Doctrine of the Church, the Sacred Scriptures, and the Vicar
of Christ were maintained, in spite of persecutions, calumnies, insults,
and sufferings which the seers and Apostles of Palmar had to support.
Here was splendid witness: piety,
unmistakable sign of the direct intervention of heaven and authenticity of
the messages. Such an
extraordinary heavenly intervention in El Palmar could not be explained,
if it were not for “Grave Justifying Reasons.”
The
texts of the Messages treated of the Justice and Love of God. They
declared solemnly that corruption covered the face of the earth, that the
world was every day more and more rotten!
That the “Anger of Heaven” would soon fall over humanity with
terrible violence. They also
declared that Satan had infiltrated the Church. That Modernism and
Progressive errors were corrupting the Sacred Doctrine. That the Catholic
Moral and Divine Cult being practised were in opposition to the
Magisterium of the Church. That Pope Paul VI found himself a Martyr in the
Vatican, surrounded and imprisoned by a circle of Masonic Cardinals who
would not let him govern.
So
it was that El Palmar in union with other Marian sites made up an
impressive list of places and persons that were instrumental in delivering
warnings to Errant Humanity. The
