The Palmarian Faith
lived and remembered!
Timely
reminders about the History of Palmar!
Some little known or forgotten facts!
In
the course of the 33-year-long existence of Palmar and with the passage of
time, the why and wherefore of many Palmarian practises and beliefs can
come to be easily forgotten. Many
of these were founded by the interventions of Heaven in the Sacred Place
of the Apparitions between the years 1968 and 1978.
This
period was the time of instruction given by Jesus and Mary through the
Seers to the Marian Followers or Apostles to prepare them and the Church
for its momentous descent into the so-called catacombs of the late 20th
century. And all this happened when the Church suddenly became Palmarian
on the death of Pope Paul VI.
In
the series of letters to follow, which will bear the above title, we will
be examining past graces and hope in this way to help present-day
Palmarians in any crisis of faith , which otherwise might
jeopadise their belief in the Palmarian. Catholic Church
We
start by examining the reason why we wear the large Scapular exteriorly
when we pray. These words were said by Our Lord Jesus on the 12th of
February 1971. On that day he
appeared to Clemente bleeding from all his wounds and gave the following
sublime Message:
“My sons, I bleed from all my wounds because I see in these groups that come here to pray persons that despise my words and consider my mandates ridiculous. Examine yourselves! Is it ridiculous to carry in your bags or to hang in your houses portraits of your parents? You have them hanging on walls, and it is not important to you what anybody thinks. I ask you, by chance, am I not your father? Why do you not give testimony to me? Is it ridiculous that you give testimony of your faith wearing the scapular exteriorly? This scapular is to expel Satan; my children, innumerable are they that are in heaven by reason of the Holy Crusades. They carried flags and banners with the sign of the Cross and the image of the Holy Virgin. The moment has arrived to have courage and to be laughed at in my defence, if it is necessary. In the three reparations, to my Face, to my Sacred Heart and to my most Holy Mother, is to be found the salvation of the world.”
The
Church has admitted and taught that God usually subjects to certain
conditions and pious practices the concession of special graces necessary
for the times. It was evident that Our Lord tied the use of the Scapular
of the Holy Face and the rest of the conditions in the message to the
giving of the graces; necessary at that time to prevent or mitigate the
chastisements,
that
was deserved and was already announced.
The
recent horrific catastrophe that occurred in the U.S.A and its developing
consequences, when meditated in the light of past heavenly warnings over
the coming future, can certainly be seen as a fulfilment of previously
announced advices.
In
a previous letter from Archidona (9), I speculated on the question of the
Church in the Desert l its present crisis in the Papacy is living the
opening of the 6th Apocalyptic Seal.
The blowing of the 6th Trumpet (Apoc. 9. v 13-21) and the pouring
out of the 6th vial (Apoc. 16 v 12 )that will follow as a consequence of
this action..
Here
undoubtedly is spoken of
terrible war, what is commonly called the 3rd World War, not to be
confused with the punishment directly sent from heaven of which Garabandal
speaks.This final punishment is
more properly the living of the 7th Apocalyptic Seal, Trumpet and Vial.
Trumpets mystically signify Judgements of God over the Church or
over humanity.
Certainly
we live the Apocalypse now, for which our faith and spirituality must
match the times. Recourse to
increased spirituality is the order of the day for everyone in the
approaching time of trouble, a turning to Our Lord Jesus Christ and his
Blessed Mother to strengthen us and our families in the days ahead.
We
must resort to frequent Prayer:
1.
The Rosary of the Our Fathers or Penitential Rosary, which invokes
especially the Celestial Father.
2.
The Way of the Cross, to meditate on the Passion of Our Lord Jesus
Christ.
3.
The Holy Trisagion, a sublime profound Mystical Canticle in praise of the
Most Holy Trinity and Blessed Virgin.
4.
The Rosary of St Joseph, whom we honour with the devotion of Protodulia,
devotion before the other Saints.
Frequent
prayer, united to frequent Confession, Holy Communion and the Holy Masses,
are our means of Sanctification. It is the mission of the Holy Spirit to
call souls to justification, sanctification, eventual deification and
salvation.
Meanwhile
we must oppose the empire of sin under the power of Satan that aims
untiringly at the degradation, vilification and satanization of souls in
this life. His only revenge
against the Crucified is made manifest by their final reprobation.
Today
the enemy’s power over souls is great by reason of general sinning, but
it is promised that the Immaculate will crush his head. Even today!
