Because I love you, I want to show you what I am doing in the world today.
\nI\u00a0<\/em>want to prepare you for what is to come.
\nDays of darkness are coming on the world, days of tribulation\u2026
\nBuildings that are now standing will not be standing.
\nSupports that are there for my people now will not be there.
\nI want you to be prepared, my people, to know only me and to cleave to me
\nand to have me in a way deeper than ever before…

A West that denies its faith, its history, its roots, and its identity

Western society is a society in which God is absent <\/span><\/strong>
\nin the public sphere and has nothing left to offer it. <\/span><\/strong>
\nAnd that is why it is a society in which the measure of humanity <\/span><\/strong>
\nis increasingly lost.\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>

God will take away our churches if that’s what’s necessary<\/span><\/strong>
\nin order to purify His Bride and restore His Church. Christianity isn’t

France will be the starting point for the world-wide chastisements, <\/strong><\/span>
\nas France was Catholic before other nations and
\nwas granted more graces than other countries.<\/strong><\/span>
\nIt (France) has been given the mission to defend the <\/strong>Church <\/strong><\/span>
\nand<\/strong> the True Faith through times of persecution and<\/span> heresy. <\/strong><\/span>
\nBecause of its failures and its rejection of its heaven-blessed monarchy, <\/strong><\/span>
\nit would be struck first, but then the punishments <\/strong><\/span>
\nwould spread throughout the world.<\/strong><\/span>

IT<\/strong>\u00a0doesn’t take a prophet to see what is unfolding at this hour. In fact, in all the news coverage on this fire, little is being said about\u00a0other\u00a0<\/em>churches that are being intentionally burned, vandalized or desecrated in France since the beginning of 2019\u2014at least ten incidences just recently, according to some news outlets.<\/p>\n

The Church of St. Sulpice in Paris on March 17th, 2019 was set on fire:<\/em><\/p>\n

At St. Nicholas Catholic Church in Houilles, a 19th century statue of the Virgin Mary was destroyed:<\/em><\/p>\n
