....the chances of being notified eight days before the Garabandal (1) announced Miracle takes place are quite slim?

In a statement (2) found in The Workers of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, dated June 2008 we read:

7. Will I receive notice by email of the Eight Day Announcement? (question posed in the FQA)

Yes. God willing, it is our intent to relay the Eight Day Announcement via email. You must register your email address at our website, www.garabandal.us, to receive email from us.

The M+G+R Foundation Comments:

As we have written before (3), since the enemies of God within the Vatican know specific dates given through Garabandal, we cannot expect God to honor them and allow His enemies to use the announced spectacular events to manipulate His already much disoriented children.

But let us assume that they were not changed and that the dates given to some of the Garabandal visionaries are still current - we then must consider the following:

(a) The Miracle (4) comes after the Warning and the Warning (5) will come after some very grave events have taken place in the world. The chances for the Internet, as we know it, being operative is quite slim.

and

(b) Conchita has been silenced by the Vatican for years. Do you think that the same Vatican that sold the world to satan by allowing World War II (6) is going to allow Conchita to announce the Miracle? That would only be possible if they learned their lesson at the time of the Warning and the conditions that must apply so that the Gates of Hell do not prevail upon the Church (7) have been fulfilled.

We suggest the establishment of a working and intimate realtionship with the Holy Spirit of God instead of counting on that email.

....the Catholic Faith does not have the "Divine Wisdom market" cornered? (1)

As you will see for yourself.... John Stott, an Evangelical theologian and minister in the Church of England wrote (2):

“Our Christian habit is to bewail the world’s deteriorating standards with an air of rather self-righteous dismay...Let me put it like this. If the house is dark when nightfall comes, there is no sense in blaming the house; that is what happens when the sun goes down. The question to ask is “Where is the light?” Similarly, if the meat goes bad and becomes inedible, there is no sense in blaming the meat; that is what happens when bacteria are left alone to breed. The question to ask is “Where is the salt?” Just so, if society deteriorates and its standards decline until it becomes like a dark night or a stinking fish, there is no sense in blaming society; that is what happens when fallen men and women are left to themselves, and human selfishness is unchecked. The question to ask is “Where is the Church? Why are the salt and light of Jesus Christ not permeating and changing our society?”

Doesn't that theology sound familiar to our readers? (3)

It is obvious that what Benedict VXI should have asked in Auschwitz, instead of "...where was God...?" (4) was: "Where was the Church...?" To which we would have responded: "You mean the Church who is fully responsible for Communism, Nazism and Fascism and all the misery associated with them?" (5)

....new archaeological discoveries in Sharjah's Jebel Fayah showed that human settlements existed in the area over 85,000 years ago? (1)

Excavation work was carried out as part of a joint programme between the Directorate of Antiquities at the Culture and Information Department in Sharjah and the Institute of Prehistoric Studies and Research at the German University of Tubengin.

The two-month excavation showed the existence of a deeper layer at the depth of four metres below the surface, which dates back to at least 100,000 years.

After all, didn't He say:

6 Give not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turning upon you, they tear you. [Matthew 7:6]

....the executive committee of the Paraguayan bishops’ conference has strongly criticized recent statements by Opus Dei Bishop Rogelio Ricardo Livieres Plano of Ciudad del Este? (1)

“The executive committees laments and rejects the statements by Bishop Rogelio Livieres Plano which imply that there was a cover-up and complicity on the part of the bishops of Paraguay regarding the moral conduct of the then-member of the episcopal college, Bishop Fernando Lugo,” the bishops said in a statement.

Bishop Livieres had said that the hierarchy has known "for years" about the infidelities of then-Bishop Fernando Armindo Lugo Méndez, now the nation’s president. “The Church hierarchy knew for years of this misconduct by Lugo, but kept silent … The Church failed when it did not speak more clearly. It's a cover-up of sorts.”

“We see ourselves rooted in Israeli society with a real respect for Jews as they see themselves, and we follow the Jewish liturgical calendar and observe many of their holidays, like Sukkot and Hanukkah,” explained the Rev.

.....occult practices could be considered the corner stone of the rise of Nazi Germany with Hitler at its helm?

No, Benedict, there is no need to ask "Where was God at a time like that?" We can answer that.

God had taken leave of the situation - allowing Nazism and Communism and all its horrors to happen - because the organization headed by the successor of Peter, the Roman Catholic Church, chose to ignore the clear, concise and simple instructions to follow to avoid the consequences of a Hitler and a Stalin.

..... this week [between Easter Sunday and Mercy Sunday] marks the 11th Anniversary of our first publications in cyberspace?

As we look back on those eleven years, and all that we have had to navigate through, the presence of God, and His intervention at every step of the way, becomes more palpable - were that possible.

I just pray - and solicit your prayers - that in spite of my limitations and miseries, not to mention my sinfulness, I am able to, through His Grace, continue to serve Him as He Wills that I do and in the manner that He truly deserves; after all, each one of us owe everything to Him.

...the EPA on Friday declared that carbon dioxide and five other greenhouse gases sent off by cars and many industrial plants "endanger public health and welfare," setting the stage for regulating them under federal clean air laws? (1)

Comment: No, we are not misty-eyed about the " moving concern" for the health of the world citizens. We are wondering: (a) What is the real agenda behind that; considering that we are still wondering (b) What were the health consequences of the hundred of millions of pounds of toxic lead which went to the atmosphere as millions upon millions of automoblies burned leaded gasoline?

Let us not forget that lead has been a known systemic poison since before it was used in gasoline to improve its octane.

critics of the Catholic Church's social teachings are trying to intimidate Benedict XVI into silence? (1)

In a strongly worded statement, the Vatican defended the pope's view that condoms aren't the answer to Africa's AIDS epidemic and could make it worse. On his way to Africa last month, he said the best strategy is the church's effort to promote sexual responsibility through abstinence and monogamy.

Comment: The RCC Administration is so far from God that they are not even able to word the defense of their posture properly. The Church DOES NOT need to promote sexual responsibility through abstinence and monogamy; the Church NEEDS to Evangelize as it was charged by Jesus Christ, then, as a logical result of such Evangelization there will be sexual responsibility through abstinence and monogamy.

Such "Pontificating" is like the misty eyed prayer for Peace.... worthless!! We must pray and strive for Justice because only when Justice spreads, Peace will too. Expecting to have Peace without Justice is as asinine as expecting to have dehydrated water.

A Final Overall Comment: The reader may wonder why we are bringing up the above issues at this time considering that we are also announcing that the civilization as we know it will come to an end soon.

The answer is quite simple: To remind the still deaf and blind members of the Elect how easy and effective is to blind the world population with anything as long as: (a) The "speaking face" is well known (an Institution or an individula or both); (b) It is done to "save the user time and money"; (c) It is called "progress" and, of course (d) It is for the salvation of your soul (or "for your own good" if the individual is a non believer).

...a top Roman Catholic Cardinal and a leader of the Church of England have both warned that Christianity is on the verge of extinction in Europe? (1)

Cardinal Christoph Schonborn of Vienna has warned in a sombre Easter address that the time of Christianity in Europe is coming to an end. Cardinal Schonborn said: "The time of Christianity in Europe is coming to an end. A Christianity, which achieved such great things like this cathedral or the wonderful music we will hear today."

Comment: Correction - Institutionalized religion is not only on the verge of extinction in Europe; it is on the verge of extinction in the whole World. Upon the return of Christ - the post Step 17 era (2) - they will no longer be needed.

A Thank You! note to Cardinal Christoph Schonborn for providing another confirmation to all that we have written (3) about what went wrong with Christianity. We must admit that he used far fewer words than we did. According to "the good" Cardinal: "...Christianity... achieved such great things like this cathedral or the wonderful music..." and yes, with a few exceptions (4), that is about all institutionalized religion has achieved besides mass murder, pillage and plunder. History and the state of the World after, 1600 years of Imperial Christianity (5), confirms it.

For the newcomer to our pages: We make a total distinction between the Catholic Faith and the Roman Catholic Church Administration, (6) commonly and erroneously referred to as: The Church.

...in the Holiest Season of the year and in what has to be one of the most moving Liturgy of the Easter Triduum - the Easter Sunday Vigil Mass - satan slipped his poison and the Faithful - blindly obedient by decree - intone it every single year?

In The Exsúltet of Easter Vigil Mass the Faithful joyfully proclaim: "O happy fault, O necessary sin of Adam, which gained for us so great a Redeemer!"

That is - we are rejoicing about the fall of man so that we could gain such a redeemer. A necessary sin? This is sheer insanity.

Some monastic sects - specifically the one Rasputin (Russia turn of the 19th to 20th century) claimed to belong to - encourage its members to go engage in debauchery so that "...God would have the pleasure..." of granting His forgiveness. After all, they would reason, didn't Jesus say: I say to you, that even so there shall be joy in heaven upon one sinner that doth penance, more than upon ninety-nine just who need not penance. [Luke 15:7]

Brethren, we must remember that the brain is to be used, under the illumination of the Holy Spirit of God, to draw closer to God while avoiding the snares of satan, which are every where, and not as stuffing for the cranium.

...the reason many times we forget to highlight the Devotions of the First Friday of the Month and First Saturday of the Month is because miguel de Portugal practices those devotions on every Friday and every Saturday of the month?

It is not because he may think himself "holier than thou". It is because that is the least he can do to console the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary whose generous and eternal offers are mostly rejected by those who should know better.

Every Friday a Mass is offered, invoking the communion of saints, as an act of reparation for the offenses committed against the Sacred Heart of Jesus - offenses for which His Divine Justice demands reparation before He will work the pleasure of His Mercy on the offending souls. On Saturday likewise is done in reference to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

We encourage one and all to also do so. We cannot offer enough acts of reparation to the Most High and, know that when we make reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary we are also making reparation to the Most High Who sent Her for our own benefit - certainly not His!

...world leaders agreed to a huge raft of spending Thursday to combat the economic crisis, pledging to lay out five trillion dollars by the end of 2010 as British Prime Minister Gordon Brown hailed a "new world order"? (1)

The measures, agreed at a one-day summit in London, would see tax havens named and shamed, new rules on corporate pay, major reforms to the International Monetary Fund and World Bank, a new push to pass free trade rules and the sale of huge gold reserves to help poor countries.

"A new world order is emerging, and with it we are entering into a new era of international cooperation," Brown said after hosting a summit which brought together US President Barack Obama and leaders of the established and emerging powers from around the world.


"The issues that people thought divided us did not divide us at all. There was substantial agreement to do whatever is necessary to return to growth," Brown told a press conference, while warning there are "no quick fixes," and the G20 would have to meet again this year.

....

Before the summit, the United States and Britain had pushed for bigger stimulus spending while France and Germany had called for the focus to be put on greater regulation of the financial sector.

Comments: We have followed the development of this staged event more than we would normally do other world. It is indeed fascinating how it was staged to fit on other staged events which have been taking place at full speed ahead in the world since President George W. Bush took office - just eleven days before the document outlining the Phase III (2) of the what was going to be implemented once the nation was made ready after 9-11.

Now, we see that after the "9-11 of the financial world" took place it was rather simple to get the leaders of twenty key world nations - leaders who just hours before had "staged" a warning of walking out (Mr. Sarkozy. for example) if Europe "did not get its way". Only fools can believe that this group would agree on this massive change in less than eight hours when a smaller group - which includes some of the same players - the UN Security Council - cannot even agree on what to do about North Korea, Iran, Israel, Zimbabwe, etc. in month after month of endless haggling.

There must have bee an equivalent to the Phase III document to be used as the road map for the "spontaneous" and "selfless" outcome of the G-20 Summit. Even the demonstrations were more subdued that they have ever been. Surprised? Think about it!

As we have repeatedly stated in the past - the world stock markets were manipulated to squeeze out the last cent of the average investor; and they did as it finally crashed on a worldwide scale.

After stealing the world population blind through the markets, the remaining step was for "them" to get the gold and... surprise, surprise " ...a new push to pass free trade rules and the sale of huge gold reserves to help poor countries." is taking shape. Of course - who in his right mind is going to go against "selling gold to help the poor"? Think about it!

Now the only thing that is missing is the massive military strike to justify the establishment of the already prepared political aspect of the New World Order (3)... and we will not have to wait long for that.

How sad.... how terribly sad... but all must take place as scheduled since all mankind has been able to do (and we sincerely praise God for allowing us to contribute to that) is compress the period (4) of highest suffering as the entire world, as we know it, collapses. (5)

In spite of what we state above, which we know as a fact, we will be able to sleep well tonight. Why? Because we have done all that we could possibly do about it and which was placed within our reach by God. Have you?

Despite the Roman Catholic Church's official opposition to abortion and embryonic stem-cell research, a Gallup analysis finds almost no difference between rank-and-file American Catholics and American non-Catholics in terms of finding the two issues morally acceptable.

Comments: Another example of the failed Evangelization: Analysis finds almost no difference between rank-and-file American Catholics and American non Catholics in terms of finding the two issues morally acceptable. If the Evangelization had been fruitful there would have been a significant difference between Catholics and non Catholics.

Allow us to remind you that before his God-induced flash conversion, abortion was, in the eyes of the man who became m de P, the moral equivalent of removing an unsightly pimple. Such change could also be attained with proper day-in, day-out Evangelization.
