The Seven Seals Revisited

In this recent interview with Christine Bacon, Daniel O’Connor and myself share our views on the “Timeline” we created in 2020. It incorporates the chronology of the Early Church Fathers, Scripture, and some approved private revelation. Christine asks us if the “seven seals” of Revelation Chapter 6 are still relevant, and how…

Good morning, Breakfast with Bacon fans. Yep, yep, you see these two faces on the screen. Well, I hadn’t ever seen them before 2020. Something happened that year. It was big. Oh, yeah, something happened in 2020. I think it shook up the world. And all of a sudden, my guests, Mark Mallett and Daniel O’Connor, were doing these videos. And I couldn’t wait each month for the next video to come out. They were doing a video on the Great Storm and the Seven Seals. So fortunately, in their busy, busy lives, I was finally able, what, guys, I think it was about five months ago I started trying to get you together to do this show, I think. But Daniel’s having kids and Mark’s having grandkids and they’re running around doing stuff. And so we finally got him today to say, yeah, I suppose I can come on and share with you. But gentlemen, thank you so much for coming on to the show. Today’s show is all about answering that question. You talked about the seven seals in the book of Revelation and have they come to pass? Inquiring minds want to know. So thank you so much for coming on to Breakfast with Bacon. I’m so excited to have this conversation because I don’t know the answer anyway.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 01:14
Thank you, Christine. It’s great to be back and thanks for making it happen. And it’s my fault for being a lazy bum and having everything that could possibly go wrong with my house and everything else also happened. But yes, awesome to be back. Awesome to be back with you, with Mark. This is, things are coming to a head, certainly in these times we’re in right now. We’re seeing iterations of it. We saw something change in 2020. And too many people have gone back to sleep after being woken up at that time. So many people saw right in front of us that the seals of Revelation were creaking open, more than creaking open, actually. But now that it seems that there’s peace and security, they’ve forgotten. But what does Scripture say? When men say peace and security, sudden destruction comes upon them. So I think this is the time that we need to revisit these seals. So thanks for having us do that today.

Christine Bacon • 02:12
yeah so i mean go ahead mark yeah you were gonna say no i don’t i don’t i don’t need to speak on

Mark Mallett • 02:17
this webcast i just like looking at daniel’s hat it’s something about my new trademark he always looks so suave in these videos i don’t have to comb my hair if i if i wear a hat i’ve

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 02:31
decided so it just you know right makes life easier yeah no i i can’t believe i still got to

Mark Mallett • 02:37
use a blow dryer. Otherwise, it’s an absolute mess. And I’m making this public confession right here because I don’t know what else. I have a cousin who’s got the exact same hair and he just shaved it. He just said, I’m tired of the blow dryer. So this is a deep conversation.

Christine Bacon • 02:53
It is good. It is a gift from God that you still need a blow dryer. Many men would wish to be in

Mark Mallett • 02:58
the position. Good point. Good point. I was just going to footnote what Daniel said. And it’s a good point because, you know, after something happened during the COVID where suddenly my writings at thenowword.com went from getting, you know, so many hits to 10 times that many hits. And I had people reaching out to me with PhDs saying something is crazy going on in the world. You know, it wasn’t, it was, it had, the pandemic was just the instrument. There was something spiritual that people were picking up, a spirit of dictatorship, of totalitarianism, of evil. They sensed something going on, and it really woke up a lot of people. And we launched our website, CountdownToTheKingdom.com, the mutual website between Daniel and I that we’re running right now. Peter Bannister now is our, we’re the only three remaining people. Christine Watkins has now gone off writing her own books and so on. But we started this website, and that was the day the church is closed. And so the timing of this was divine. It was on the Feast of the Annunciation, March 25th. And here we were launching this website. That just happened to be the day that all this stuff coincided. And over the course of the next few years, we were getting letters all the time. I still get them to this day, people saying, this has woken me up. I’ve converted. I’ve changed. I’m coming back to Christ. I’m back in the church, and you guys have helped me in this journey. So God used that to wake people up. But here’s the thing. Jesus described, you talk about the seven seals, Christine, that’s in Revelation 6. They’re virtually a mirror of what Jesus talked about in Matthew 24 and Mark and the Gospel of Luke and so on. They’re basically what Jesus said. They’re labor pains. That’s what he called them. And so all the women here who are mothers should know what a labor pain is. This intense pain followed by this reprieve. And Daniel and I, I’m the father of eight. Daniel, how many are you now with your kids? Are you six?

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 05:21
We were blessed with number six last year.

Mark Mallett • 05:24
Yeah, six. So we know how it goes. And you do, Christine. you have this labor pain and everything in the room stops and everybody’s focused on mom and she doesn’t want you to talk she wants to focus on the labor pain and then it passes and sometimes it can pass for several minutes and everybody’s talking again and she’s talking she’s breathing she’s relaxed and i think we’re in this period um i think we’re in this time because you know people who are going ah countdown the kingdom you know it was all just you know these fake predictions ever. From my perspective, absolutely not. And we can, if you want to, Christine, you’ve asked us to go through the seals. We can do that in this program because I see every one of these seven seals and so does Daniel. And I’m sure most of the people listening because they’re tuned into this stuff, we can see them happening and unfolding right now. And really one major crisis, probably third world war, if we’re to read this as a chronologically, literally chronological, it could lead to a domino effect where all of this just topples. And it leads us to the sixth seal, which we’ll talk about when we get there, which we believe is a biblical description of the illumination of conscience. So with that, that’s our footnote to Daniel’s comments. And now we bring it back to your host, Christine Bacon.

Christine Bacon • 06:52
Thanks, gentlemen. Back here in Virginia Beach. Okay, so when it first started, I was wrapped. I mean, I was just listening because I was much more literal back then. And I didn’t know if these seals would be literal. Would they be, you know, marked that way? Or are they all coming together at the same time? So I remember the first one is the time of mercy. And I think everyone can clearly agree that we’re past that. There’s no mercy left. We’re seeing craziness in the streets. We’re seeing craziness in other countries. We are seeing riots everywhere. But I’ll let you kind of go there. What do you think about seal one? Time of mercy passed? Are we on to number two, which is peace shattered? Well, the first clarification I give is, I agree, absolutely.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 07:41
We’re so out of mercy as a world. But if anybody’s hearing that thinking, oh, shoot, I missed the boat, missed the time of mercy, time to give. No, that never means that the time of mercy is up for individual souls. As long as there’s breath in your lungs, you’re eligible for God’s mercy without a single exception ever. You’re alive, you can always repent, convert. In fact, as long as you’re alive and you do this, this repentance, conversion of heart, As long as you do that before you die, as far as salvation is concerned, it makes no difference if you do that or if you were this ultra saint since the day you were baptized. Those, what does Jesus say in the gospel with the parable? Those late to the vineyard, they get a few pennies of pay. They get a couple bucks. No, they get the exact same reward, the exact same payment that those who labor through the heat of the day get. so don’t ever even think of despairing of God’s mercy when you look at the world thinking the time of mercy is up that’s a different that’s a category mistake so the the only other thing I’d add to that is if you’re one who has labored for so long don’t be like the elder brother in the other parable don’t ever be envious of those who receive God’s mercy at the last moment come into the faith now the fact that you’ve been laboring for God all these years that’s a blessing That’s a gift. That’s a grace. That’s not something to lament. The happiest, most joyful people by far are those who are living the commandments, following God’s will, doing God’s will, and above all, striving to live in his will. That is, even if there’s physical pain involved, that’s transformed into joy, into grace. God works all things to the good for those who love him. So never forget, this is all ultimately about your soul. It’s not about figuring out the world. But we do, on the other hand, need to be attentive to the signs of the times. Why? Because Jesus rebukes people. Well, he rebuked the Pharisees, didn’t he? Because they refused to see the signs of the times. So this time of mercy, it’s coming to a conclusion. You know, it would be dangerous, and I would never do this, to say, okay, here’s the date it ended or something. Like, you know, we don’t think that way, but we can, in a more general sense, just look at what’s going on and see that the world at large is running out of mercy. And Mark mentioned how a domino, the first domino to fall, could be this outbreak of global war again. And I think that that is extremely likely. And I think that that, when it officially happens, I think we’ve been unofficially embroiled in a third world war for quite some time now. But when it is actually declared, that changes the whole situation and that means we’re on to a whole new iteration of the seals at least

Mark Mallett • 10:34
and and countries are preparing uh already uh we’ve seen a couple countries now getting kind of draft uh looking at the possibility of drafting their young people um i mean this war is a chastisement on the nations and um maybe for those who aren’t familiar what you referred earlier, Christine, to the words, you call it the time of mercy, is the time of mercy over. For those who aren’t maybe familiar, the context is this. Our Lady of Fatima, which is an approved apparition in the Catholic Church that was confirmed by a sign of the sun spinning and pulsating and colors coming off. It was witnessed by as many as 80,000 people and recorded in the atheistic communist press would happen. So there were countless eyewitnesses there. And then after the sun pulsated, the ground and the people who were drenched by the rains all day long were completely dry. So it was a supernatural miracle. But you have to understand that during these apparitions, Our Lady came to warn that communism was about to bust over Russia. And she said, unless we repent, unless we do what heaven was saying to us, that the errors of Russia, that is Marxism, communism, atheism, all that would spread throughout the world. So fast forward now, and we’re seeing that in spades. Just turn on your American news, and you’ll see that the youth are embracing Marxism in the colleges and

Christine Bacon • 12:08
everywhere. It’s been a wildly successful revolution.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 12:12
And now we’ve got the biggest, the most, I mean, I think when John Paul II was in America, I think he called New York city, the capital of the world, It’s not literal, of course, but in one sense it kind of is symbolically. And who is now running that? A communist. Yeah.

Mark Mallett • 12:27
Who said that, Daniel?

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 12:29
I believe Pope St. John Paul II just kind of called it like the capital of the world. And it’s symbolically that’s in a sense true. And even financially it’s true. And that’s how the New World Order types, the global elite, get control of everything. They don’t need a literal one world government to nevertheless exert global control by controlling finance. Who gets the money? And that’s why the ultimate aspect of that, the mark of the beast, they’ll be able to completely control everything just by controlling what you can buy and sell.

Mark Mallett • 13:00
And I did an article called Mystery Babylon at thenowword.com. And I go into the whole history of the United States. It’s Masonic and Christian roots and how they’ve been vying for the heart and soul of America. And ultimately, this mystery Babylon, which I think ultimately, because in his vision, St. John sees that there’s the collapse of this city surrounded by many waters. And I just keep thinking of New York, Manhattan, and so on. And it falls in one hour. And I’m doing an article on this. I’ve been sitting on it now for weeks because I’m really praying about it. It’s a very serious article. But I think what’s happening in America right now, you’ve got Donald Trump now. Whatever you think about him, set that aside, because Donald Trump right now has decidedly pulled away from the globalist regime. He’s pulled out of the World Health Organization, the World Economic Forum, the Paris Climate Agreement. And then he has said, obviously, he’s taken up a nationalist strategy. He’s closing his borders. America first. You see, America though is the last standing country really that is prepared to defend Christianity. And Trump is. Again, set aside what you think of the man personally. Obviously, Donald Trump is going through a conversion process, we hope and we pray. But the man has work to do like I do. So that set aside, I think if we see this as a really literal biblical fulfillment, fulfillment where Mystery Babylon, which I think is fulfilled in part by America, collapses in one hour, everything else, Our Lady said, you will see global communism overnight take over the world because there’s no other, there’s nothing else standing in the way. That, in a sense, America represents Christendom, the last fragments of the Roman Empire, and the West as well. America and the West are the last fragments of the Roman Empire, which Cardinal St. John Newman said the Roman Empire still exists. And while it still exists, you still have the restrainer holding back the Antichrist. But he said when the Roman, and the early church fathers did too, they said when the Roman Empire collapses, then will the Antichrist burst on the scene. And so when you see the West collapse. And this is what the Masonic plan has been to undermine Christianity. As Pope Leo XIII warned in his encyclical letter, Rerum Novarum, pardon my bad Latin, he said, the spirit of revolutionary change, which has long been disturbing the nations of the world, is happening. We’re now seeing this long revolution now coming to a head. And God foresaw this. He saw that the nations were entering little by little into a rebellion against God that is now coming to a head where we are literally making ourselves like God, which is exactly what it says in 2 Thessalonians 2. The Antichrist puts himself in the temple in the place of God and declares himself to be God. This is what transhumanism and all of this, transgenderism, transhumanism, all of this is declaring that I’m God. I can determine my own sex. I can tap into the internet and have all knowledge like God. I can be all powerful and decide over my life, euthanasia, when I live and when I die. I can determine the life within me in my womb, whether it lives or dies. So all of this is coming to a head. And thus, this is why God said to Saint Faustina, Faustina, he appeared to her shortly after the apparitions in Fatima, and he basically told us what’s happening. St. Faustina said, I saw the Lord Jesus like a king in great majesty, looking down upon her earth with great severity. But because of his mother’s intercession, this is Fatima, he prolonged the time of his mercy. Because at Fatima, the children, the three seers saw an angel appear above the earth, about to strike the earth with a flaming sword. with chastisement. In a future vision, Sister Lucia said that the earth actually shook and went off its axis. So it actually, and we’ve got other seers on Countdown to the King who’ve talked about a major earthquake that will shake the entire world. But Our Lady postponed it. And the angel cried to the earth three words, penance, penance, penance, which means repent, people of the earth. And so St. Faustina writes, He prolonged the time of mercy. Jesus said, I have eternity for punishing these. And so I’m prolonging the time of mercy for the sake of sinners. But woe to them if they do not recognize the time of my visitation. Let the greatest sinners place their trust in my mercy. He said, write this. Before I come as a just judge, I will first open wide the door of my mercy. He who refuses to pass through the door of my mercy must pass through the door of my justice. And so I agree with Daniel. I think for the world, for our times, that door of mercy now is closing. None of us really knows when God says it’s closed. I personally think that when we get through these seals and after the illumination of conscience, that’s the moment when the door of mercy closes. because the final armies of darkness and light will be discerned. And we’ll get to that in the sixth seal and you’ll see what we mean. But that’s the context of what we’re saying and why we’re saying we’re in a time of mercy. And I think all the signs of these seals, this great storm breaking forward is upon us and we are very close to it. It could happen any day, any hour right now where this entire world will change overnight.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 19:02
And it doesn’t have to give any warning because we’ve already gotten the warnings. I mean, I don’t mean the warning. The warning is coming. But we’ve already had all of the indications that we would possibly need to be reminded by the Holy Spirit of the apocalyptic nature of these times. So we can’t lament that God didn’t tell us beforehand. Oh, he did. As the book of Amos said, God does nothing without informing his servants, the prophets beforehand. And he has been informing the prophets since Fatima especially, like never before in the whole history of the church. And in so many different ways that really no one can claim ignorance at this point. Maybe, I mean, there are a few people, I suppose, who haven’t heard anything about it, which is why we need to do our job in getting it out there, getting this call of Our Lady to conversion repentance out there. Why? Because time is short. But in that respect, I would also encourage people to be attentive to the signs in their own lives. The Holy Spirit doesn’t only speak to the literal visionaries, the literal seers of apparitions and whatnot. If you’re attentive to circumstances that are beyond your control, you’ll get little reminders in your own life that we’re in unique times. And in fact, I mean, I’ve had so many of my own secular undergraduate students at a public New York college allude to their own just their own intuition that there’s that there’s some sort of era ending, that that something’s going on in the world. I was traveling now, which is why forgive my horrible camera set up in background here. It’ll be better.

Christine Bacon • 20:43
Your lighting is beautiful, Daniel.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 20:46
Yeah, I’m actually you’re having an apparition now seeing me. No, it’s bad. I know it’s the best I could do here. But I was traveling. So we’re in Florida, actually. And I was going to this amazing monastery, Carmelite Monastery, that I love going to down here. But as we’re driving there, this huge plume of smoke starts inundating the highway that I’m taking there. And I look over to the left and I’m literally seeing a helicopter with a huge bucket trying to put out a wildfire. There was no warning at all. We didn’t get an alert on our phones. There wasn’t a radio. There was nothing. We just suddenly drove right into it. And I was thinking, all right, should I turn around? Because this probably isn’t good. But instead, I just kind of drove through the smoke and went to Mass. And it was great. And it was such a holy experience, that Mass. And then right after mass, not right after, we had a little time to socialize after mass while smelling wildfire smoke. A little bit after that, the cops came and evacuated the whole monastery, evacuated all of us, evacuated the priests and brothers who live there. But nothing was harmed at all. The wildfire stopped before it hit it. Nobody was hurt and no building was even touched. But it was a reminder to me of just what’s coming upon the world and how if you are setting your goals correctly, pursuing God, pursuing the sacraments, you will be kept safe in the best way that that could possibly mean for you. That doesn’t necessarily mean definitive protection from physical harm. Maybe God knows that martyrdom is your best way to get to heaven. And if so, praise God. But I think that for those who seek to be really marked by Our Lady, consecrated to Our Lady, living lives based on the sacraments, which is what Our Lady is calling us to repeatedly at Medjugorje, it’s a simple message, and you can even call it repetitious almost, but that’s okay. We need that repetition. If you’re living that, please don’t let yourself be afraid of what’s coming. God has specifically chosen and designed every little bit of your future in a path that leads right back to Him. Walk that path, trust it, and don’t be afraid.

Mark Mallett • 23:08
That’s a beautiful, balanced warning. We do think there’s a biblical precedent for, and from the church fathers, about the idea of God having physical refuges. I think just natural law and reason follows that God in these times will need to protect a remnant flock. And St. John Chrysostom called them solitudes that God will withdraw, and so did Lactantius, that God will withdraw his people. But thank you, Daniel, because people need to remember that the ultimate refuge is the heart of Jesus. It’s his sacred heart. It’s the heart of Mary as well that is united to his heart. And she said at Fatima, at the beginning of this prophetic warning for the period that is now coming to a head, we believe, she said, my Immaculate Heart is your refuge. now she didn’t just leave it at that my immaculate heart is your refuge and the way that will lead you to God so Mary is all about bringing you to the heart of Jesus and what is she preparing us for well what a beautiful visual Daniel just gave us of suddenly this firestorm that just broke out of nowhere it was just there and this is what servant of God father Stefano Gobi heard in 1994 from Our Lady. Now, before I read this, I want to share with you because my whole ministry, by the way, started with the Lord, this writing apostle, it started with the Lord kind of driving me out into the countryside to go look to a storm. I felt I had to go look at this storm that was approaching on the prairie horizon. And as I watched it rolling in, I heard distinctly in my heart, not audibly, but it was like a voice from outside of myself said, There’s a great storm coming upon the earth like a hurricane. And when I went home within, I don’t remember, that was 2005, within a week or two, I sat down and started reading Revelation chapter 6. And as I started to read it, I heard in my heart the Holy Spirit saying, this is the great storm, the seven seals of Revelation. It was maybe a few years later, I turned to one of the writings of Father Stefano Gobi in 1994, and this is what Our Lady said. You’re entering into the decisive times, times for which I have been preparing you for many years. How many will be swept away by the terrible hurricane, which has already hurled itself upon humanity. This is the time of the great trial. This is my time, O children, consecrated to my immaculate heart. And so with that, Christine, if you would like, we could go through the seals one by one. We’ll just briefly touch on them and why they’re relevant, why they seem to be pregnant.

Christine Bacon • 26:06
Yeah. Real quick though, Mark, I think before you do that, I was ignorant when I first listened to you guys. and I’m a linear person. So I was thinking, is it going to be one and then peace shatter, then economic class. But as you’re speaking, you and Daniel today, I’m getting this image and you both have a lot of kids. And so you get this, but I’m picturing this mom in the kitchen and she’s cooking food and then it starts over boiling and pouring out of the floor. And she tries to stop that. But then there’s a kid over here that just stepped on something and he cut his toe and And you’re now you got to do that. But that’s still boiling. And then now the other kid comes in. Jimmy hit me. And then, you know, you got a brick in the head. So all of a sudden, all these things are going wrong and it’s the mom’s like, tell God, take me away. You know, one of these bad days. So each of these separate things doesn’t stop. It’s just they keep piling on to this perfect storm. That was the vision I was getting when you guys were talking, which makes me think it’s less linear. But it is going to be one after the other of the other when the first one hasn’t ended yet. So does that make sense?

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 27:15
Yeah, they overlap. That’s for sure. And we can’t be overly linear. There’s clearly a general structure of the apocalypse that’s going to be followed. You know, there’s certain things have to happen before other things will happen. You know, the warning has to be before the Antichrist, for example. That’s God’s final great global act of mercy. That’s his last chance. And the warning, I would also say, I wouldn’t say this with certainty, but I would say the warning also has to happen after, at least major, some degree of chastisement has begun. But in terms of exactly when we’ve got red horse, pale horse, black horse, I think there will be a back and forth for sure, and multiple iterations, kind of a spiraling fulfillment of these things that we’ve already seen some fulfillments of, but which we’ll see even more definitive fulfillments of in the days ahead.

Christine Bacon • 28:07
Well, let’s do it. Number two was peace shattered. I am just an ignorant person here, right? Peace seems to be shattered. When I look at the news, when I look out, no matter what country I’m looking in, there are riots. There are fighting. There is, take it away. Peace shattered? Yes? No?

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 28:27
It’s been shattered. That’s all right. I’m sorry. That’s for sure.

Mark Mallett • 28:32
Yeah, I mean, Revelation chapter 6, 4 says, Another horse came, bright red, its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth so that men should slay one another. And he was given a great sword. Now, again, we have to be really humble before both the imagery and symbolism, which is rich in the book of Revelation, being careful not to take things too literally, being reminded that, you know, since Fatima, we’ve had two world wars. We’ve had genocides. We’ve had, you know, all kinds of atrocities. And of course, the great plague of abortion that has killed more than all those wars combined. So, but, you know, I think as I read this, since I began my apostolate, what was it, 20 some years ago, I’m more and more beginning to wonder if what St. John saw wasn’t literal. It wasn’t just, and you’ll see it. It’s like bada boom, bada bing. As this piece is taken away from the world, the very next thing that happens in the next seal, the third seal, is this other writer comes out and he announces that a quart of wheat costs a denarius and three quarts of barley for a denarius. So it’s like hyperinflation. It’s like economic collapse. Whatever happened in the previous seal seems to have an impact. And so war is the great, I mean, they’ve been using wars, the globalists have been using wars for centuries. They fund both sides of the wars because there’s money to be made through inflation and these kinds of things. So I think you already see in the first two seals that were set up for that. The headline yesterday was the new, two days ago was the nuclear treaty between Russia, Canada, sorry, Russia and the United States, that that treaty is expired and they haven’t renewed it. So now there’s really no international law governing nuclear weapons right now. Another headline was Peter Schiff warning that the dollar, he sees signs of a major collapse and a major market correction that would dwarf what happened in 2008 when trillions of dollars were lost. So already, again, we’re seeing these signs, these seals are poised for the ultimate collapse of the West. And this is the intention. They call it the Great Reset for a reason. They want to reset. They want to completely restructure. They call it shareholder capitalism. That’s what the World Economic Forum calls it. And if you really study it, it’s a blend of capitalism and communism. And this is what they want to do. They want to completely collapse it. And I think that’s the purpose of these seals. They’re man-made so that ultimately they can create this global neo-communist beast. And it’s called a beast. And it’s made of composite metals and everything. And I think it’s all these isms, communism, atheism, capitalism. They all come together in this beast. And the people cry out, who can compare to this beast? Because it’s dominating everything. And we had a flavor of that. We had a taste of it during COVID when the entire world was orchestrated to shut down, including the churches. So anyway, so that’s my comments on those, at least those first two seals.

Christine Bacon • 32:01
Well, and again, the BRIC nations, before you speak, Daniel, I’m sorry, you look at the BRIC nations, it’s set up specifically, you know, to let’s take the currency away from the American dollar. Let’s set up a new system. And they’re really pushing these other countries to just start exchanging with anything but the dollar, which, again, was going to hasten that. And even if peace is already shattered, imagine how much more people will be rioting, fighting. And anyway, so it’s very tangible. Daniel, what were you going to say?

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 32:28
Yeah, I was just thinking back to Mark when we did our first webcast on the third seal with economic collapse. And that was right when they were pouring unfathomable amounts of money into these stimulus packages. for COVID, you know, the steamy checks, as they called them. And we said, look, you water down the soup, it’ll look like you’ve got more soup, but that won’t add more calories to the soup. You’ll actually just have a bunch of people who thought that they ate a meal and they’re still hungry afterwards. And we pointed out this is logically guaranteeing major inflation. And the expert economists, they said, oh, no, no, no, because of this and that little financial game we’re playing, it’s not going to cause inflation. And of course it did. It’s simple logic. And it hasn’t gotten better. We haven’t become disciplined. Jesus actually has a whole passage in his writings to the servant of God, Luis Picoretta, where he points out how evil it is that all the machinations of the nations are built upon amassing massive amounts of debt. And he doesn’t use this next phrase, but really it’s generational theft. You’re guaranteeing the poverty of your children. But what have we done since then? we haven’t become disciplined financially. We haven’t become frugal. We’ve dumped just as much money now into other frivolous things. When you see the amount, I mean, trillions of dollars have been spent on AI, which is giving us almost nothing in return. I mean, there’s a few nice uses for it. But I mean, why are they dumping that much money into it? Because it’s the infrastructure of the Antichrist. That’s why. But even leaving that apocalyptic AI stuff aside, just looking at how much money we’ve wasted on it. And the return on investment will be abysmal with it. And even the big banks are starting to realize that, and they’re getting afraid of taking on investment portfolios based on that debt. That’s also going to majorly impoverish us. We’ve dumped trillions of dollars into that. And the military budgets are exploding as well. That doesn’t give us a return on investment, except, I mean, I’m not a starry-eyed pacifist here. understand we need to be able to defend ourselves. But I think Trump’s latest military budget proposed, I don’t know what status this is in right now with the votes. It was obscenely large. That is going to, all of this is going to continue to impoverish us, I hate to say. And look, if you don’t believe me, just look at what happens to the prices of things that you need. It is harder than ever to put a roof over your head and food on your table. And that’s right there in the book of Revelation with this third seal.

Mark Mallett • 35:12
Well, I mean, and that’s really important. Why would they? We’ve gone, in Canada alone, we’ve gone billions of dollars into debt. And this is, Daniel’s right. The whole point of this is to bankrupt us. It’s the Great Reset. You bankrupt the countries. They want to put everybody on universal basic income and they’re going to have to. And the reason is artificial intelligence as we speak is eliminating jobs. I was reading one article from a lawyer who was warning basically that, you know, when you’d hire a legal assistant to go back into the, say, the history of all these different cases and find the precedences in courts. And so this could take a couple of weeks just for a major case, for a legal assistant to find up around all this information, put it coherently into a ledger and to present it to the lawyer as building a case. Artificial intelligence can do that in seconds. Like within under a minute, it can build you an entire case and argue it successfully and give that to the lawyer. So you’re seeing the need for all of these assistants just disappearing overnight. They’re saying that diagnosis now is more effective through AI than by doctors. So you could suddenly just eliminate a whole host of doctors in terms of diagnosing and just running people through AI. And on and on and on and on it goes. This was all predicted in the documentary, by the way, called Zeitgeist about 20 years ago. a really truly demonic documentary. You can find it online that really undermines. It has a lot of truths talking about how the system needs to be come down, but it also includes in that the Catholic Church is being part of this whole system and everything, right? So it’s a completely Masonic thing, but it predicted this time when there would be people. Technology would take over everything and we could all just be at home doing art and everything. Well, St. John in chapter 6 of Revelation gives us a different story. He shows us what comes as a result of this beast doing all of these things in the background is an absolute collapse of society. And so we read in the fourth seal, after the second seal of war, the third seal of economic collapse, we see in the fourth seal that the writer is given the power to kill with sword and with famine and with plague and by the wild beasts of the earth. So you’ve got an utter collapse now of society. You’ve got gang wars happening in the streets. You’ve got your supply chain lines are completely broken because of war and hyperinflation. We saw this in COVID. The supply chains, we realized, were almost day to day, maybe a week. But supply chains are so fragile that just one little bump like we have with COVID, And you saw toilet paper and supplies disappear from the shelves, which is why even today now we have hyperinflation because it still costs a lot to get some of these things back into our shelves. So that’s the fourth seal. I don’t know if you have any comments on that one, Daniel, but I think that’s just a picture of utter chaos and collapse of society, which again is intended because the people behind this are cooperating with Satan. They’re his henchmen. They’re his handmaidens.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 38:52
Yeah, you can’t cause that much economic turmoil without it bleeding into more general societal turmoil. You take away what people need without even physically stealing it, but financially stealing it by hyperinflation, and they are going to become violent. And so many other dominoes are going to fall along with that. How are you even going to be able to avert famine when everything is so fragile, so sensitive, the slightest push, slightest push knocks it over? That’s that’s certainly beginning to happen. But what we’ll see soon, unfortunately, will make all that look pretty small that we’ve seen so far.

Christine Bacon • 39:32
Well, you mentioned toilet paper. Look at the fighting there was over toilet paper during the pandemic.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 39:37
I mean, I know it’s bizarre. It’s like if you want to scare somebody at the store, just go in and load up your cart with toilet paper and they’ll say, oh no, he knows something. That should be our thumbnail for our next video. It’s like of all the things, there’s other ways to handle that without having obscene amounts of toilet paper. I’d say worry more about having some rice and water, but anyway, yeah. The toilet paper, it wasn’t,

Christine Bacon • 40:05
not toilet paper, but toilet paper, splinter free toilet paper was invented in Wisconsin.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 40:11
Wow, I’ve never gotten a splinter when I’ve used toilet paper.

Christine Bacon • 40:15
Because of Wisconsinites.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 40:16
So I have to thank Wisconsin for that.

Christine Bacon • 40:17
You do, you do.

Mark Mallett • 40:18
Right up there with the toaster.

Christine Bacon • 40:20
When all this happens, we may be seeing more splinters again.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 40:24
Splinter-filled toilet paper, okay. Well, we’ll need pennants, I guess.

Christine Bacon • 40:29
Exactly. That’s going to be a real pain in the butt.

Mark Mallett • 40:32
Yeah, well put. Well, I re-mentioned in that Zeitgeist documentary how the church was included as being part of the evil system. And I think clearly today we’re seeing in the revolution that’s taking place in our streets, literally, from the radical left, which has actually become the mainstream left, now we see. Believe me, it’s not like the right wing doesn’t have its problems. But what we’re seeing in the left truly is radical ideology that’s being embraced now by the youth. And part of this is the rejection of all authority. They don’t want police, right? Defund the police. We’re tired of our leaders and we want nothing to do with the church. And we can see that the sexual scandals in the Catholic Church have done more to undermine the credibility of the priesthood than probably anything. But now we also see with our leadership almost an embrace of the entire UN agenda. So they’re kind of being lumped into it, which might lead us to why in the fifth seal that St. John sees opening is that he sees martyrs underneath the altar and heaven crying out, how much longer before you avenge your blood? And it says they were given a white robe and told to rest a little longer until the number of their fellow servants and their brethren should be complete. Those who were to be killed as they themselves had been. You know what’s extraordinary is later on in Revelation it talks about these people being beheaded, who were beheaded for resisting the beast system. Isn’t it extraordinary that in 2020, you know, in the 2020s, we’re seeing beheadings now of Christians in Nigeria, in the Middle East. We’re seeing now an anti-Christian spirit rising up in ferocious violence in India. So the persecution of Christians is exponentially multiplying all over the world. So we’re seeing this seal coming to fruition. will it happen in the west why wouldn’t it it already happened in france the french revolution which was again a masonic labor pain you could say there’s different levels of labor pains but in the french revolution they literally brought nobles and they brought priests and nuns into the streets and and it was unbelievable the thousands look at what happened in spain even later than that

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 43:14
And I mean, the unbelievable brutality unleashed against the Catholic Church. And then again in Mexico. A lot of Mexicans have no idea what happened in the, what was it, the 1920s, I think. The crackdown on the Catholics then and the slaughters. So these things, they’re happening right now so much in Africa and Asia, but we think of them as foreign to us in the West, but they’re not. And we don’t in the West see our fellow Christians being physically imprisoned or killed yet. But all of the indications are this is going to become a global phenomenon. The martyrs crying out. And if not during the time of the seals, definitely during the time of justice, the time of the Antichrist, of course, where the faith will be universally outlawed.

Christine Bacon • 44:11
And I don’t know what it’s like in Canada. I’m suspecting it’s same as in America. We have really never had, as someone said to me, Christine, there’s a civil war and revolution. Yeah, okay, whatever. I’m talking about we’ve never really had a war on our land since our country in many, many, many years. And not even these small wars. And so we have gotten so comfortable. I just read again, you know, when David sent David Bathsheba and then he sent Uriah out to the front and he said, oh, come sit, go see your wife. But Uriah said at the gate, he’s like, no, no, no, if my men can’t, I can’t. You don’t want to get soft. That’s the whole point to bring that up. We’ve gotten soft in North America because we haven’t had a war here since the Civil War. And everyone here is like, it’s not going to happen. It’s not like in Nigeria. It’s not like in the Middle East. It’s not like in Israel and Gaza. We are different. And I’m going, don’t call me a negative person. But as you just said, Daniel, it will be here. God has protected us and his hedge of protection is being removed, if not already removed.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 45:17
And just waiting for nature. Yeah. People think we’re fundamentally different. No, we’re not. We’re fundamentally the same. We’re fallen human beings. And there’s only so much restraining of this evil that can wither away before the evil overcomes. And we go back to the days of literal martyrdom instead of just white martyrdom, which is hard enough, of course, for its own reasons. But, you know, we will see it. And people, as you said, Christine, in America especially, because we haven’t seen full-blown war in our land on our actual soil since the Civil War, no one can even remember their grandparents seeing it here. So we think it can’t happen, but it will.

Christine Bacon • 46:00
It will. Sadly, it will.

Mark Mallett • 46:02
Well, yeah, and I think one of the prime reasons for it is the blood of the unborn is crying out. One of the descriptions too of Babylon is that they trade. So Babylon’s all about money and greed and trade and commodities. But the last commodity in the list of Babylon is trading human souls. And human trafficking has exploded around the world. It’s the most grotesque element, maybe, of our culture, is that little children are being sold around the world for sexual purposes. I mean, I can’t wrap my brain around that. But John Paul II, in his prophetic way, really summed all of this. When the Lord said to Cain, now I’m quoting John Paul II, the Lord said to Cain, what have you done? The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to me from the ground. The voice of the blood shed by men continues to cry out from generation to generation in ever new and different ways. The Lord’s question, what have you done, which Cain cannot escape, is addressed also to the people of today to make them realize the extent and gravity of the attacks against life, which continue to mark human history. We can’t underestimate if Jesus, remember the vision of St. Faustina began with Jesus looking as a king with severity. We want to downplay that. We want to say, oh, he’s just mercy. He’s just, and he is, he’s unfathomable mercy. The extent that God is going to reach the last sinners of this generation is extraordinary, but he’s also a just God. And the severity of what we’re doing, how could he be a good God if he didn’t look at the brutality of where we are in this generation and say, there’s an end to this. And it’s a mystery how God lets us go from day to day and there’s more kids suffering, being abused and murdered, and all of this is happening. But God sees it. He sees how this is all going to interplay in eternity, how it’ll all come to a head at the final judgment, and how everything will be justly doled out. So God sees that. He sees the little children that are being sexually abused and sold in other countries, how what they will be in eternity and his kingdom. And those little children will look at you and I and say, you know what? I’m okay. I’m next to the Father in heaven and I’m praying for you because you’re not okay, generation. You are not okay. And so I’m interceding for you. So this is kind of where we’re at. And I have to, I can hear people right now probably going, okay, you guys skipped the first seal. And I think it’s important at this point because we’ve gone on now for 15 minutes, 20 minutes now about these grave things. And I’m sure many people right now are unsettled. And in some ways, that’s okay. Be unsettled, but remember that Jesus is the one who’s opening the seals. He’s the one, the Lamb, who was worthy to open them. And there’s an interesting thing about the first seal. It says that the Lamb broke open the first seal of the seven seals. and I heard one of the voices of the living creatures cry out like thunder come forward. I looked and there was a white horse and its rider had a bow. He was given a crown and he rode forth victorious to further his victories. I hear many evangelicals say well this could be Islam, it could be this or that. But Pius XII had a very interesting insight. It’s not Catholic dogma but this was his insight. that this first seal, this first rider is Jesus Christ. The inspired evangelist, St. John, not only saw the devastation brought about by sin, war, hunger, and death, he also saw in the first place the victory of Christ. That God would make all these things work to the good for those who love him and ultimately bring about the triumph of Christianity, the vindication of his word, which we read in Revelation 20, that after the death of this Antichrist and his armies and these globalists and these masons, all these people who carry out the program of Antichrist, which is really depopulation and death and destruction and ego, that in the last word is Jesus and the air of peace that will rise, in which God will restore the original harmony of creation for a time in which the kingdom of God will come on earth as it is in heaven. That his kingdom, as we pray, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. And that’s the ultimate fulfillment. So we need to keep this goal in mind. And the sixth seal really is this victory, this crowning victory before everything comes to the final chastisement, which is the Antichrist. But I’m going to pause there in case you guys have any thoughts. But I thought we need to come back to that first seal. Remember, the goal of all of this is God letting us reap what we sow. As he said, Cain, what have you done? But the blood is crying out. It’s being sown daily, and we will reap what we have sown, but Jesus will make it work to the good, ultimately.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 51:54
Amen. And that first seal, it almost permeates all the other seals. In fact, in a sense, it does. When does, you know, Revelation doesn’t describe the devil and his minions, the Antichrist and the evil man, as being victorious and conquering and to conquer. No, they’re raging against God. And yes, they’re causing much bloodshed, but they’re not victorious. All they do is lose. And all God does is win. And that remains the case throughout all these chastisements. You can always side with him, and then you’re on the side of the victor, and the victory is guaranteed. Even if it involves your martyrdom, no matter what it involves physically, the victory is guaranteed. That rider on the white horse, that first seal, he’s always with us. He never goes away. So yeah, he leads us through these seals to this great act of mercy with the warning that Mark just brought up, this sixth seal. It looks like it’s Judgment Day itself. If you look at the book of Revelation’s description of the sixth seal, the stars fall from heaven. I mean, how can you even imagine a greater temporal cessation of things than the stars disappearing? But the thing is, they don’t actually. That’s what seems to be happening. It looks like Judgment Day itself. If you continue to read Revelation, you see Judgment Day itself isn’t for a very long time after that. It’s like a mini-judgment, which is exactly what Father Stefano Gobi, the servant of God now, Father Stefano Gobi’s messages from Our Lady describe it as judgment day in miniature. So we’re given this unfathomable gift of seeing our souls as God sees them, but still having a chance to repent after that. There’s no chances to repent after judgment day itself or after your own particular judgment after you die. But this, we get to repent. So what does this have to do with us and our mission now? I always say this means our mission is to proclaim the divine mercy as zealously as possible because what do you do by proclaiming the divine mercy even to souls who don’t deserve it or you’re tempted to say don’t deserve it in fact none of us deserve it you’re softening their hearts and that’s the most beneficial thing you can do for someone who’s about to die because then they’ll have actual judgment day there particular judgment or for anybody in the face of the planet who is going to experience the warning, which I believe will be soon. The softer the heart, even if they’re still living in sin, which we don’t want, of course we’re always trying to get people out of that. But even if they’re still stuck in their sin and errors, if you’ve at least softened their heart towards Jesus, he can work with that little bit of softness in there. If he finds something in there to sneak his way into that heart. But you, as a Catholic, hopefully in a state of grace trying to be a living host out into the world, you can soften hearts throughout your whole day. Think about the harvest that you’ve reaped at Judgment Day itself or during the morning. If you can say every day when I was at work or at school or at the store or walking down the street, I softened like five hearts every day. A smile, a God bless you, a handing them a divine mercy card. It doesn’t have to be an apologetics thing. It can just be a little bit. You can prepare to receive the mercy at the morning.

Christine Bacon • 55:10
I think…

Mark Mallett • 55:12
And we soften by love. We soften by love. Yeah, it’s love. And that’s the heart of the message of Medjugorje that many people mock it because they go, oh, Medjugorje is just always about be love, be joy, be peace. But yeah, that’s the heart of it. You know, the last message out of Medjugorje before this webcast was be prayer. Not just pray. She said, become prayer. To become prayer is to become another Christ on earth. And that’s how we soften hearts. That’s the heart of prophecy. It says in Revelation, the spirit of prophecy is the testimony of Jesus, who is the way, the truth, and the life, who is love itself. So we need to become this love. Christine, you were going to say something. I just wanted to add that.

Christine Bacon • 55:57
Well, you guys are all really nice and happy, and I was just going to take it down to misery. I was going to talk again. Please do. But looking at the Epstein files and I’m looking at the occult people.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 56:11
Mark, are you in those files? I think you are.

Mark Mallett • 56:14
She’s so miserable. Look at this.

Christine Bacon • 56:18
No, but, you know, and it talked about the end times, you know, evil would be seen as good, good would be seen as evil. But then it also said it would be revealed. Father Dan Rehill recently, the exorcist said, that’s what it talks about in Revelation. It was not necessarily about it becoming worse, which it is, but that it would be revealed. And as I’m seeing all this occultic stuff, the sex trafficking, the children, that, you know, drinking children’s blood and things we heard Pizzagate years ago. And, oh, that’s not real. It’s actually been shown to be real. So the good part of that to me is now that it’s been revealed, it can’t not point out to the fact that the end is near. And on the bright side of that, I’m seeing people wake up like you. One of you said at the beginning, atheists, Protestants, other religions are going, something is different. And I haven’t stopped seeing a stream of people waking up and just coming into the church. Yes, I know that we’re losing people, supposedly. But I think the ones coming into the church are much more attuned to what is going on. And I think because of all these seals breaking. So when we get to the warning, I think we’re going to be as ready for the warning as we can be if we’re paying attention to this stuff. I always think of the sex traffickers. I’m like, are they the ones that are going to die on the spot? The people who, you know. Anyway, so the good coming out.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 57:47
Lots of mini-illuminations going on now. Like mini-illuminations before the illumination itself. We’re seeing things being exposed. And maybe, you know, maybe part of God’s will in allowing these things to be exposed now is so people won’t complain when the chastisements start because they’ll realize how necessary they are to cleanse and purify. If our world is being running by a cabal of Satanist sex trafficker billionaires, which probably is pedophile. Yeah, let’s let’s just say, OK, time for the asteroid. Don’t say that. We don’t want to hasten it more. God will send it when he has to. But the point is, don’t complain to God when you see things breaking down. He only scourges when that’s the last possible thing to do. And soon it will be.

Christine Bacon • 58:39
As an act of mercy. As an act of mercy itself. Because sometimes that scourging is what’s going to wake the person up.

Mark Mallett • 58:44
Yeah. Well, St. Peter has an interesting thing he says in 1 Peter when he talks about, He says, wait, he says, for the dawning of the morning star rising in our hearts. I’m paraphrasing a bit, but he says, we await the prophetic fulfillment when the morning star will rise in our hearts. Well, the morning star is that star that prefigures the dawn, the coming of, really, the coming of the risen Christ. And, you know, John Paul II says something extraordinary to us youth in 2002. He said, I am calling you to be watchmen who announce the coming of the risen Christ, who is Jesus. So he was telling us, I want you to watch the signs of the times and prepare the church to announce this coming of Jesus, which involves everything we’re talking about today. The breaking open of the seven seals, the signs of the Antichrist, but also the signs of Jesus moving in hearts. And as Daniel said, there’s all kinds of illuminations happening. So we’re going to talk a little bit about the 16th year in a moment. But really, if you think about the morning star already in people’s hearts, there is. It’s like the blue that you get on the horizon before dawn. All of a sudden, the darkness starts to lift and there’s this blue and this hazy light and you start to see more clearly. And I think Father Dan Rehill’s got it absolutely right. God is now beginning to expose our hearts. He’s doing it in my heart. I’m seeing stuff over the last two years. Little by little, the brighter it gets, the more I’m going, oh, I didn’t even know I was doing that. Forgive me, Lord. Forgive me, my dear Leah, my wife, my family, whoever, right? So this is a good grace. But the illumination that’s coming, it’s called the warning. And this was the term that was coined at Garibandau, Spain, where the children saw basically this warning that would come in which God would expose our consciences. It would be an illumination of conscience as if we were standing before God in judgment, as Daniel quoted, servant of God, Father Stefano Gobi, a judgment in miniature. Many seers, such as Jennifer from America, who we’ve been discerning and we consider her very credible, has seen the cross appearing in the sky and light flowing from the wounds of Christ. Saint Bostina saw the same thing. She said before Jesus comes as a just judge, Jesus said to her, I’m coming first as the King of Mercy. And before the day of justice arrives, I will give people a sign in the heavens of this sort. All light in the heavens will be extinguished. Daniel quoted Revelation chapter 6 with the sky. Actually, it says, St. John says, the sky rolls back and the stars seem to fall. So everything becomes dark. And the interesting thing is this is happening. It’s being read by the lamb. And if you go back to Revelation chapter 5, 6, St. John describes the lamb. I saw a lamb standing as though it had been slain. What is that? That’s Jesus Christ crucified and his crucified wounds. This is the one who’s opening the seals. And it seems to be that he’s leading us now to Revelation chapter 6 and the sixth seal. In which it then says, he says to St. Faustina that a sign of the cross will be seen in the sky. And from the openings where the hands and the feet of the Savior were nailed, that is the lamb who is slain, will come forth great lights which will light up the earth for a period of time. And many mystics say that we will see ourselves. It could last 15 minutes, some of them say. You’ll see yourself as if you’re standing before God in judgment. And that’s why we read in Revelation chapter 6 that they want, it says, they cried out to the mountains and the rocks fall on us and hide us from the face of the one who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb. So they’re feeling as if it’s God’s wrath. It is. In a sense, it’s God’s judgment. They’re seeing themselves the way God would see them because the great day of their wrath has come and who can withstand it? So everyone, it says from prince to pauper, wants to hide in the ground. I have no other explanation for this because it’s not the final judgment. I have no other explanation for this that it’s exactly what St. Faustina and all these different mystics are saying in Garibandal and other places. This is a warning to us. And it brings us then to the eye of the storm. So you’ve got this hurricane coming down. It’s getting more and more intense. War, famine, plague, sword, martyrdom, persecution of the church. Already right now, we’re seeing dozens, hundreds of churches being burnt down in the West. It’s not even in the mass media. We’ve had 120 burnt down in the last four years in Canada alone. And so this is already coming and bringing us to the eye of the storm. And then we read in the seventh seal, what’s the eye of the storm? Well, you guys know down there in Florida, you know down in the southern states, the eye of the storm is the calm. That’s right. From Covenant Keepers, Steve Wood was there when that great hurricane, I can’t remember the name of it, came down in Florida. No, I think it was a different one. It was massive. It hit Florida a couple decades ago. He said it was so eerie because all of a sudden the wind stopped and everything got calm and light flowed through. And when you read the seventh seal, this is what St. John says. When he broke open the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. It’s this calm in which God illuminates hearts and everyone sees themselves as God sees us. and we call it a reprieve because if you read what happens next it says that the angels who are about to chastise the earth God tells them wait, stop until all the servants are marked on the forehead and it’s our moment it’s our global moment the turning point either you say yes to Jesus and you embrace him or you say no to Jesus and yes to all the peace and security of the Antichrist, and you will be marked then by the Antichrist, who will then mark you on your forehead or your hand. And so that’s the eye of the storm. This is the great hurricane that Father Stefano Gobi talked about, I believe.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 01:05:46
Yes, and don’t think that it will be easy to say no to the marking of the Antichrist. Why? Because as the Catechism says, he comes with an apparent solution to our problems. God doesn’t come saying, I’m going to make everything easy. God comes and he gives you his grace so that you can shoulder whatever comes your way. But the devil comes and says, I’ll deliver you from pain. I’ll deliver you from difficulty and challenge and risk. And that’s exactly what the Antichrist will do through the power of the devil, because the Antichrist will just be a man, but he’ll be completely possessed with preternatural abilities there. And I, of course, believe that this will be mixed in, this will be a part of this great deception of both the UFO deception and the AI deception. I think they’ll swoop in as having the answer to whatever the great crisis is at that time, whether it’s probably nuclear holocaust, the Antichrist will claim he can prevent that perhaps. But there’s many different things it could be. There’s many different existential crises that society is facing now and will face much more in the days ahead. And the Antichrist comes in, he says, I can save you from that. And it’s going to seem so terrifying what he claims that he can save you from that it will be extremely difficult to say no to his mark. But that mark will be the mark of the beast. And you’ve got to set your face like Flint now to have nothing to do with that. No matter what the promised benefits are, it’s a lie. So you’ve got to fill yourself up with God’s grace now because that choice will not be easy. Thanks be to God. He will give us the warning first, but do as much spiritual preparation as you can now, especially as we’re starting Lent. Who knows? Could be our last normal Lent. I’m not saying that’s the case. I’m saying it could be the case. And you don’t want to squander it. Don’t squander this Lent.

Christine Bacon • 01:07:33
I also saw a video. Oh, go ahead, Mark. No, you go ahead, Christine. Well, I saw this video recently about a man who was shaken and he had a dream and he said, I never do videos at two in the morning that I just had a dream and I wanted to, I just want to tell you what it was, but he talked very similar to what you were saying, Daniel, in that it’s going to look enticing. And really in his dream, it was more of a mind control. And it was like, and we’re seeing this with the AI, right? You can, it can tell you thought, anyway, so in his dream, there was his voice like a computer screen, but he was kind of blind. And the man behind the screen was saying, hey, do you want more power? Do you want more wealth? Whatever. You’ve been running this business, this 501c3 or whatever. I can make it better and just say, yeah, sure. And immediately, you know, when someone grabs your computer screen remote, like when I have computer problems and I call Providence Computer and then they remote use my screen and I’m sitting here watching. So in this guy’s dream, his just simple thoughts of, yeah, I’d like to make more money, whatever. It’s like, okay, you can try it. He saw his screen start changing. And at first he made some more money and stuff. But then the person behind the screen started doing other things. And the man was saying, I don’t want you to do that. I want you to do that. And he said, no, well, you already turned over all your decisions to me. And so it’s too late. And so he was saying that this dream gave this impression that it’s going to be way less obvious than lining up and putting a chip in your wrist or your hand. I’m going to say no to that. But are you going to say no to the influence that’s been coming through our thoughts and you know other we need to be more alert is what i’m saying it’s going to be excuse me way more subtle than we expect and it’s going to look extremely enticing as the bible promised so we have to be so alert to that that that’s um that’s it i’m

Mark Mallett • 01:09:30
glad you said that um because i was going to read to you i’m going to read to you right now from 2 Thessalonians chapter 2, this is what St. Paul said about the coming of the Antichrist, whom he calls the lawless one. The coming of the lawless one by the activity of Satan will be with all power and with pretended signs and wonders. And I agree with Daniel, artificial intelligence, UFO, deception may constitute part of these pretended signs and wonders. And I think we’re already seeing them because people now are every time you go on the internet now people are going is this real am I looking at a real video is it real or not so we’re already seeing this happen and so Saint Paul says he will come with these pretended signs and wonders and with all wicked deception for those who are to perish because they refused to love the truth and to be saved and so to be saved. Therefore, God sends upon them a strong delusion to make them believe what is false so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness. So two things here, and I’m saying this to those of you who are listening right now, that you need to understand if you wait, think, I’ll just wait till the warning happens, I’ll wait till the sick seal. It may be way too late because I think Barbara Rose, one of the mystics that I’ve quoted, she says that the illumination will actually serve to separate the armies of light and the armies of darkness. It could be too late if you’ve hardened your heart, if you’ve refused to love the truth because you had the pleasure of living in unrighteousness. So you’ve dulled your conscience. You don’t want to do what the church says, what the gospels say. And this is a call to you right now with love, and I say it with great love, to repent. Repent and believe the good news. To turn away from your sin. And to turn where? And here’s the thing. This is the antidote that St. Paul gives at the end of this chapter to the Antichrist. He says, Therefore, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter. St. Paul is speaking about the hierarchy of the church at that time, the presbyters and the bishops, along with Peter, saying, we have been authorized by Jesus to give you these traditions, both in writing, that is the scriptures, and orally. And you are to hold fast and stand firm on this. Because why? There is a great storm that will come. The storm of the Antichrist. And Jesus prophesied it in Matthew 6. He said, the wise man, the one who keeps my words, is the one who builds his house on rock. And when the floods come, when the winds come, when the storm comes, the house stands. But the one who doesn’t listen to my words is like the one whose house is built on sand and it will utterly collapse. And so I think Jesus was prophesying in that scripture his church. Peter, he said, you are rocking on this rock, I will build my church. St. Paul is saying, if you want to survive the end times, anti-Christ deception, stand with the church. And so if I was Satan right now, I would do everything I could to undermine the Catholic church, to make it look like it’s a pedophile ring, right? This is what he’s done, to make it look like the Vatican Bank is just this corrupt bank with the globalists. And he’s having a wild time with the church. But know this, there will always, said Paul VI, there will always be a small flock. And Jesus will always build the church on the successor of Peter. Although we could have a time where we don’t have a pope because the conclave isn’t even allowed to form. They can’t come together. And we’ve had situations where we haven’t had a Pope, but Jesus still is the one building his church even in those times. So in conclusion to what I’m saying, I’m reaching out to those of you who are struggling with the Catholic Church, who are resisting her to humble yourself before sacred tradition, which is Jesus, what he’s given to us through the apostles, weak men, fallible men, sinful men, even the Popes. But this is the truth on which you will stand. And if you depart from it, if you reject the church, St. Paul is warning you, if you refuse to love the truth, you may be subject to a strong delusion. And I think already, and I think you’ll agree with me, we’re already seeing many people who they’re so blind right now that they cannot see the truth. And they think everything that’s coming to them from the woke left and all this is the truth and it’s love and it’s compassion. but it’s not because love and truth are together they can never be divorced so that’s the warning and an invitation to you jesus right now is saying to you i’m giving you my mercy and my love and even if you are like a rotting decaying corpse in your soul the miracle of divine mercy that is when we come to confession he can restore us and if you’re not a catholic and you’re listening to this, come to Jesus, kneel before your bed and say, Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and my Savior. I want to stand on the truth. I want to be in this rock. I don’t want to perish and be separated from you. I don’t think I’m strong enough to resist the Antichrist when my stomach will be empty and I’m in a bread line. Jesus, I trust in you. I trust in you and I want you to be my Lord and my Savior. And he will listen. And he will do that because that’s why he died for you, for love for

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 01:15:34
you. Amen. And if you do that, don’t let yourself be afraid anymore because you’ve done what you need to do. Make that commitment. Make that act of trust. An act of the will. You can do it right now. Don’t put it off at all. And then live it out. Mark said, stand with the traditions. Well, were you wondering what those are? Open your catechism. Read it. Believe every word. Have your life of faith settled by what you’ve been told. We don’t have to figure it out for ourselves. We have the church given to us by Jesus Christ. And then live a life in communion with the church. That means going to mass every Sunday at a Catholic church in communion with the Pope, the bulwark of truth, the vicar of Christ. Keep to those traditions. Stay with Jesus. Stay with his church. Stay with his mother. You’ll be fine.

Christine Bacon • 01:16:24
Well, I usually on my podcast asking, name one thing you’ll have our listeners do differently as a result of something they heard today. But I’m thinking you just answered that.

Prof. Daniel O’Connor • 01:16:34
I guess that’s how I would say, yeah, stick with the church. Hopefully most of you are. If you’re not, get your act in order now. Otherwise, I’ll have to harass you in some way.

Mark Mallett • 01:16:47
Maybe we could give Jesus the final word because we’ve been quoting all day today in this webcast from Revelation chapter 6. But if you go back three chapters in verse 10, Jesus says, so Jesus promises us for this time of trial if we persevere and we’re faithful to him he will keep us safe and Daniel explained what that means safe during martyrdom so that we don’t lose our faith it could be the safety of being in the desert with the woman in Revelation 12 God carries her off into the desert that doesn’t matter what matters is that you give your fiat to God today I will follow you Jesus help me to follow you. I believe in you, Jesus. Help my unbelief. I want to be your disciple.

Christine Bacon • 01:18:00

And so hopefully he’s waking you up to do whatever this next mission is. You know, we’ve had this, you did this six years ago, well, really five, and we had a reprieve. And now I think things are moving again. And let’s just thank you. I thank you for my viewers, for the work that you are doing for the kingdom, for illuminating us, for you doing the research and then teaching it to us. So we know what we should do, where we should go. in a metaphorical, in an abstract kind of way. If you physically know where we should go, let me know. But as God speaks to you, thank you guys for being obedient. Thank you. Pray for us.
