Garabandal Prophecies

Very well documented event that happened in Spain to children very similar to the Fatima event in Portugal. It is a a bit chilling what is going to happen, there is a ton of information to go over. It almost seems that the Fatima event got contaminated and this is a second attempt to get the truth out. The final event could happen soon since the one girl with the final secret message isn't getting any younger.

I am very interested in your opinions, there are some events that have confused me and maybe you can help me understand.

Again, there are many you tube videos and websites available on this event.

I'm not a Catholic myself, but I noticed that the Catholic member Flyers Fan has always been critical of Garabandal.

It's convenient that when the virgin tells the church has lost its way and it's condemning people, the church happens to find the apparition as a fake.

I would like to be my own judge too the next time I am being accused of something

A summary of the prophecy.

The prophecy says there will be a warning that will help us understand how we have sinned against God followed by a heavenly sign.

The prophecy of devastation is avoidable based on our actions.

This prophesy is simply restating God's MO with the prophets in the OT. And in the NT the fall of Jerusalem in 70 ad came afterJesus's warning.

I do believe that God warns us before he judges us. And that he judges us based on how we react to his warning. So it could be valid.

As a Protestant, I tend to disregard Marian visions in general, so I haven't been going into this one.
I did glance at the site linked in the OP< and noticed a prophecy suggesting that John Paul II would be the last pope, which looks like a bad start.

If that's so, it would tend to fail it by the Biblical test.

a reply to: DISRAELI Thank you, I found that information very interesting until people starting saying how God would act. I think that is stretching a bit, I am currently trying to take care of my sacraments. I don't see any evil or satanic effects from the story except the wrath of God. That is scary.

I read one of the links flyers fan posted about the event stating that it was "satanic"
i don't understand how it can be "satanic" if the apparitions caused no harm to the children and did not command the children to cause harm to others.

if anything, to me, it sounds like a close encounter of the third kind sorta thing. . .

i mean, i'm not religious, so the whole thing seems weird . . . .


interesting thread, nonetheless.

I agree, regardless where it came from, it was supernatural. I don't believe it was a hoax.

Satan does what he can to deceive. The popular conception of Satan as an ugly monster is a bit of a misnomer. You get closer when you listen to the Rolling Stones song or better yet the places in scripture that remind us he can appear even as an angel of light.

There is an event in Islamic tradition where Muhammad and his followers were under intense persecution and he made a compromise with polytheistic believers to lift that persecution. Later, he retracted that revelation that had led him to that compromise claiming he had been led astray by Satan impersonating the angel who had given Mohammad all his revelations from Allah to that point.

So, even if you discount the Satanic Verses incident, and many Muslim scholars will, the story itself is still useful in illustrating how deceptive Satan can be. He can even impersonate Gabriel if he wishes. That is far from an ugly or evil creature but one that would be beautiful and full of glory and awe-inspiring.

This might be why even the very elect will be deceived if it were possible when the Beast puts in his appearance in the last days.

So the idea that Satan could fabricate a Marian apparition is not at all out of bounds or beyond belief. The idea that there are already failed predictions attributed to the apparition would already mark it out as failed and not to be taken seriously.

Since Flyersfan has been absent for some time, please let me clarify as we worked together a lot.

Garabandal has been condemned by the church.

The most damning thing about it all is the story of Joey Lomangino. He was told he would regain his eyesight by one of the girls.

Sadly Joey died last year, an old man and still blind.

If you want some really cool Marian things to investigate, look up Zeitoun in Egypt (Coptic church approved) Lourdes and Fatima (Catholic Church approved)

Flyers and I have both been to Medjugorje and while this one is on a knifes edge as to whether it will be approved or not, is a fascinating story too.

All of these have been covered off here on ATS, some by me if you search.

Sorry, am on phone so it is too difficult for me to add any links right now.
