Hoe om te weet wanneer die waarskuwing naby is

 

OOIT sedert die begin van hierdie skryf-apostolaat sowat 17 jaar gelede, het ek talle pogings gesien om die datum van die sogenaamde “waarskuwing"of Verligting van gewete. Elke voorspelling het misluk. God se weë bly bewys dat hulle soveel anders is as ons eie.

That said, I don’t believe we are without key markers as to the nearness of the Warning. What I am about to share here is not about dates but tekens that may suggest the proximity of the Warning, which several seers, some of whom we have posted on Aftelling na die Koninkryk, have claimed is near, according to Our Lord’s and Our Lady’s messages.

The following is a personal “word” I believe the Lord gave me many years ago, one that is proving to be true by the hour. In fact, it is precisely this word that has guided me, especially in recent times, regarding any expectations of the Warning. That is to say, I have nie been expecting the Illumination at all — until very recent signs have emerged… 

 

THE GREAT STORM — SEVEN SEALS

Long-time readers have heard me share this before. That some 16 years ago, when I felt moved to watch a storm rolling across the prairies, among the first “now words” came to me that stormy afternoon:

Daar kom 'n groot storm soos 'n orkaan op die aarde.

'N Paar dae later het ek my aangetrokke tot die sesde hoofstuk van die boek Openbaring. Toe ek begin lees, hoor ek onverwags weer 'n woord in my hart:

Dit IS die Groot Storm. 

What unfolds in St. John’s vision are a series of seemingly connected “events” that lead to a complete collapse of society until the “eye of the Storm” — the sixth/seventh seal — which sounds an awful lot like the so-called “illumination of conscience” or Warning. In my reflection Steun vir impak, I went into detail regarding these seals and the accompanying “signs of the times.” 

I have always been reticent to read this sixth chapter as applying to only future events. Maybe the seals span decades or centuries. But more and more, I am beginning to believe that St. John witnessed in his vision a massive wêreldwye rewolusie ^[1]Note: the architects of the “Great Reset” are actually calling this the Fourth Industrial Revolutionof primarily man-made events after the first seal is broken. What follows is war (second seal); inflation (third seal); new plagues, famine, and violence (fourth seal); persecution (fifth seal); followed by the sixth/seventh seal — what I call the “Eye of the Storm” of this cosmic hurricane. Over a decade later, I received a confirmation of sorts that the sixth seal is indeed the “Warning” when I read a message from Jesus to the Orthodox seer, Vassula Ryden:^[2]The theological status of Vassula Ryden: cf. U vrae oor die era

...wanneer Ek die sesde seël breek, sal daar 'n geweldige aardbewing wees en die son sal so swart word soos growwe rouklere; die maan sal oral rooi word soos bloed, en die sterre van die hemel sal op die aarde val soos vye wat van 'n vyeboom val wanneer 'n sterk wind dit skud; die lug sal verdwyn soos 'n boekrol wat oprol en al die berge en eilande sal bewe van hulle plekke af ... hulle sal vir die berge en die rotse sê: 'Val op ons en steek ons ​​weg van Hom wat op die Troon sit en van die toorn van die Lam;' want die Groot Dag van My Reiniging is binnekort op jou en wie sal dit kan oorleef? Almal op hierdie aarde sal gesuiwer moet word, almal sal My Stem hoor en My as die Lam herken; alle rasse en alle godsdienste sal My in hulle innerlike duisternis sien; dit sal aan almal gegee word soos 'n geheime openbaring om die duisternis van jou siel te openbaar; wanneer jy jou binneste in hierdie staat van genade sal sien sal jy inderdaad die berge en die rotse vra om op jou te val; die duisternis van jou siel sal so verskyn dat jy sou dink die son het sy lig verloor en dat die maan ook in bloed verander het; so sal jou siel aan jou verskyn, maar op die ou end sal jy My net loof. —Jesus to Vassula, March 3rd, 1992; ww3.tlig.org

It seems to me that the second seal is well underway, particularly with the launch of bio-weapons and a man-made pandemic that has already begun the collapse of modern civilization. War in the 21st century does not have to look like its counterparts in the 20th century. 

Second, nearly every person on the planet now is beginning to feel the effects of inflation. Incredible what St. John wrote 2000 years ago:

Toe hy die derde seël oopbreek, hoor ek die derde lewende wese uitroep: "Kom vorentoe." Ek het gekyk, en daar was 'n swart perd, en sy ruiter het 'n skaal in sy hand gehou. Ek het gehoor wat lyk asof dit 'n stem is tussen die vier lewende wesens. Daar staan: ''n Koringrantsoen kos 'n dagloon, en drie rantsoene gars kos 'n dagloon. Maar moenie die olyfolie of die wyn beskadig nie. ” (Op 6: 5-6)

Dit gebeur net so koring is at the center of a growing food shortage.^[3]vgl trendingpolitics.com Again, I believe the entire food and supply chain shortages are man-made and opsetlik. You’d have to be a complete idiot to think you can lockdown your entire population and believe it won’t destroy jobs, businesses, and local economies and literally lives. I appealed several times in personal letters to my own bishop and to the bishops at large ^[4]vgl Opening Letter to the Bishops to please denounce these immoral and reckless lockdowns, but not a single prelate acknowledged that they even received my brief. A new peer-reviewed study shows that as many as 911,026 additional deaths among children alone under five years old occurred by these destructive policies of Bill Gates, the World Health Organization, and those paid to do their bidding.^[5]journals.plos.org

Met Aappokkies, WaterpokkiesEn nou Polio apparently re-emerging, food shortages looming, and the inevitable consequences of civil unrest and looting, the fourth seal begins to take shape. 

When he broke open the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature cry out, “Come forward.” I looked, and there was a pale green horse. Its rider was named Death, and Hades accompanied him. They were given authority over a quarter of the earth, to kill with sword, famine, and plague, and by means of the beasts of the earth. (Revelation 6:7-8)

The fifth seal is the voice of the martyrs crying out from beneath the altar for justice. “…they were told to be patient a little while longer until the number was filled of their fellow servants and brothers who were going to be killed as they had been.” ^[6]Eerwaarde 6: 11 One cannot help but think of the thousands of Christians presently being persecuted and slaughtered in the middle east by radical Islamic groups like Boko Haram. Or priests being violently attacked in places around the world, not to mention churches and shrines. Note: this is the seal that precedes the Warning, or sixth seal. While I think this fifth seal is already unfolding, it’s my personal feeling that we are going to see a shocking outburst of violence against the Church — especially in the United States if Roe vs. Wade and abortion laws are upended. Pro-abortion advocates have already proven violent and are promising a “night of rage”^[7]vgl dailycaller.com should the high court overturn the landmark ruling as anticipated. Last summer in Canada, over two dozen churches were vandalized or burned to the ground on mere gerugte that unmarked gravesites at residential schools were alleged “mass graves” of indigenous children. None of this has been proven — but it goes to show how emotions toward the Church are a tinderbox right now, especially as allegations of sexual malfeasance in the priesthood continue to emerge. 

Dit is die assault upon the priesthood and Christ’s Bride that appears to provoke Divine Justice with a global earthquake, perhaps some kind of celestial event, accompanied by a global Illumination of Conscience (see Fatima en die groot skudding). Yes, when the Church is under a violent and widespread assault, we will have reason to believe that the Warning is very, very near.

At the same time, it is clear that not every region will see the same signs in the same intensity, so we “watch and pray” remaining vigilant and ready to meet the Lord in any case. 

 

OTHER SIGNS

The term “the Warning” appears to have been coined in Garabandal, Spain where several children allegedly received apparitions from Our Lady. One of the things she told the children is that:

Wanneer die Kommunisme weer kom alles sal gebeur. - Conchita Gonzalez, Garabandal - Der Zeigefinger Gottes (Garabandal - Die vinger van God), Albrecht Weber, n. 2; uittreksel uit www.motherofallpeoples.com

“Everything” includes the “Warning”, which Our Lady revealed to the Spanish seers. Oddly, Communism hadn’t even left yet at that time. But now it’s clear that globale Communism is well underway^[8]lees Jesaja se profesie van wêreldwye kommunisme — not in its previous forms but, this time, wearing a green hat under the guise of “environmentalism” and “healthcare.”^[9]vgl Die Nuwe Heidendom Deel III & Deel IV

Marxistiese kommunisme, wat gelyk het met die val van die Berlynse muur, is hergebore en sal beslis Spanje regeer. Die gevoel van demokrasie word vervang deur die instelling van 'n enkele denkwyse en deur outoritarisme en absolutisme wat nie met demokrasie versoenbaar is nie. —Cardinal Antonio Canizares Llovera of Valencia, January 17th, 2020, cruxnow.com

The same can be said for Canada, France, Australia, America, Ireland and a host of other countries where the “Groot herstel” is well underway. 

Another intriguing aspect of those apparitions is the testimony of a Mother Superior who had been told thirdhand from a priest that the Warning would come after a “synod”. As I was preparing this article, Gees Daagliks was right on cue with this subject. 

María de la Nieves García, head of a school in Burgos, where the seer [Conchita Gonzales] studied in 1966 and 1967. The nun derived the information from two priests. Stated the superior (reportedly): “During the apparition, the Virgin told [the visionary, Conchita Gonzales] that before the future events occur, a synod will take place, an important synod.”

“Do you mean a Council?” the aunt allegedly asked (it was the time of Vatican II).

“No, the Virgin didn’t say Council,” the seer purportedly responded. “She said ‘Synod,’ and I think Synod is a small council.”

…“It is impossible,” the superior is quoted as stating, “for a 12-year-old girl without any knowledge and culture to talk about a Synod that didn’t exist.” -spiritdaily.org

A half-century later, the ecclesial term “synod” would suddenly become commonplace in the Church. Of note is the recent German synod where several bishops are propagating heretical positions, particularly on human sexuality. But the Church, in general, is in a synodal process from 2021 to 2023. About what, exactly, is not entirely clear. It seems to be a synod on synodality on “how to move forward on the path towards being a more synodal Church in the long-term.”^[10]vgl synod.va If turning the Church into one big ongoing Synod is the goal — especially if it’s about transforming the Church into a democracy rather than the monarchy it is — then we may very well have another key sign of the nearness of the Warning. 

 

THE WARNING …AND YOU

The final sign I want to highlight is what is happening within my own soul and many others whom I have been in contact with. There seems to be deep cleansing and purification taking place in people who are watching, praying, and seeking the Lord. In my own heart, God is revealing little by little the depth of my brokenness, self-centeredness, and need for healing and liberation. It’s been a very painful illumination.

If the Warning is like the sun breaking the horizon at dawn, then we are presently in the hours before the sunrise. Already, the night is giving way to the first light of dawn; and the closer we get to the Warning, the more the Sun of Justice will illuminate the landscape of our hearts. It’s as though we are getting small doses of the Illumination already, which will increase, until the moment of the Warning when the Sun of Justice breaks across the world. For those who have already “awoken” before dawn, the Illumination will not be as painful. But for those who have been living in the dark, it will be a shocking awakening. 

Hulle het na die berge en die rotse uitgeroep: “Val op ons en verberg ons vir die aangesig van die een wat op die troon sit en vir die toorn van die Lam, want die groot dag van hulle toorn het gekom en wat dit kan weerstaan ? ” (Op 6: 16-17)

Met sy goddelike liefde sal Hy die deure van harte oopmaak en alle gewetens verlig. Elke mens sal homself sien in die brandende vuur van goddelike waarheid. Dit sal soos 'n miniatuur-oordeel wees. —Vr. Stefano Gobbi, Aan die priesters, Our Lady's Beloved Sons, 22 Mei 1988 (met imprimatur)

Om die geweldige gevolge van geslagte se sonde te oorkom, moet ek die krag stuur om die wêreld deur te breek en te transformeer. Maar hierdie kragstuwing sal vir sommige ongemaklik wees, selfs pynlik. Dit sal veroorsaak dat die kontras tussen duisternis en lig nog groter word. —God the Father allegedly to Barbara Rose Centilli, from the four volumes Sien met die oë van die siel, 15 November 1996; soos aangehaal in Die wonder van die verligting van die gewete deur dr. Thomas W. Petrisko, p. 53

Die gewete van hierdie geliefde volk moet met geweld geskud word sodat hulle 'hul huis in orde kan stel' ... 'n Groot oomblik kom nader, 'n groot dag van lig ... dit is die uur van besluit vir die mensdom. —Dienskneg Maria Esperanza, Antichris en die eindtyd, Vr. Joseph Iannuzzi, P. 37 (Volume 15-n.2, Hoofartikel van www.sign.org)

As we appear to be living in the Sewe Seals of Revolution, the best way to prepare is to remain always in a state of grace: run from sin! Second, stay close to the Sacraments where Jesus has made Himself available to us in an extraordinary way: through His Real Presence in the Eucharist and His Divine Mercy in the confessional. Weekly confession is a powerful way to conquer sin, remain accountable, and attain the grace we need in these times to persevere and remain faithful. And encircle it all with the chain of the Rosary.

When will the Warning come? I don’t know. But if what I heard in my heart 16 years ago was authentic, I believe that when we see the signs above intensifying to the point of civil unrest and widespread suppression and violent persecution of the Church, that the dawning Illumination will be at the very threshold. In the moment of greatest chaos, when the winds of change are fiercest, the Eye of the Storm will break out briefly upon wounded mankind… a last chance for the prodigal sons and daughters to return Home before the final half of the Storm.^[11]sien Die Tydlyn

When he broke open the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. (The Eye of the Storm, Revelation 8:1)
