547000, hi,
I wish you wouldn't take a negative stance on the messages from Heaven. The yet to be approved. God hasn't been silent since Akita.
The world is a mess, it's getting darker and it's not because we hear about evil much faster with the Internet. It's the end times. There is
a lot of prophecy, Heaven is helping the faithful to persevere.
About the refuges...
Spoiled American that I am, I can't see myself at refuge and/or cave
for very long. A weekend, a week, two, okay?
I think of my mother, I said to her once, hospitals are scary, no privacy, they won't leave you alone. And she replied. "Colbe, when you're very sick, you are happy to be in a hospital."
This is how it will be wherever the places of refuge are in the Great
Tribulation. We will be happy to be there, no matter how rustic.
And the prophetic states, there will be martyrs, as in the early Church so not everyone will make it to the refuges. Whatever God's Will.
547000, I was praying a novena recently. The prayer I said
every day spoke of Jesus' birth place. It said the stable was actually
a cave. I knew this but had forgotten. That fact really helped me.
take care and blessings,
colbe

I am a Christian but I have a hard time believing this was a true prophetic vision because I do not believe the Virgin Mary can appear to people, she was not an angel and only angels and God can appear to people and give prophecy.
There is also nothing in the bible that says we will hide in caves which further discredits this story.

To be fair Revelation talks about people hiding in caves to hide from the Lord.
Also, before the protestant reformers, every Christian believed Mary was assumed bodily into heaven. She is the woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet, with a crown of twelve stars. Because protestants discount sacred tradition, they do not know of her assumption into heaven.
Did/does Jesus establish a Davidic kingdom or not?

I take a very skeptical stance. I once went to a charismatic church and the pastor told me the cross was a vain idol and he cut off someone's rosary beads. Whatever spirit moved him, I don't think it was the Holy Spirit.
The cave bit is in the joyful mysteries of the rosary. I pray it twice a day. I think it's a really helpful prayer to learn more about the Lord and Mary. Many people blaspheme her, the Lord's mother by denying her virginity and disregarding her immaculate conception.edit on 18-1-2012 by 547000 because: (no reason given)

The obvious answer would be no, unless you were take themes from the kingly biblical literature and spiritualize it, meaning to take things described in a physical way and to understand then metaphorically.

Thats the constellation virgo and it's a part of the prophecy of the star gospel. It's a prophecy about the birth of Jesus it does not mean she is the literal Queen of Heaven which would make her a goddess and is pagan worship. Catholics take Mary way too far and give her far too much credit for what God has done. They give her his glory and thats just one of their many mistakes.
. . . when everybody knows that nobody knows when it's gonna come.
