As Our Lady said to Fr. Dolindo:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;\"><strong><em>The first form of mercy needed by this poor earth, and the Church first of all, is purification.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">IV. <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>The Church will almost seem abandoned and everywhere her ministers will desert her\u2026 even the churches will have to close!

The Church has been weighed and found wanting. For not only did many bishops close their parishes with hardly a blink, but they put into place more stringent standards than nearly any other institution (including agreeing to take down names of everyone attending Mass to submit to authorities). This &#8220;bond&#8221; that is now becoming evident between the hierarchy and the State is going to be broken. How?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;\"><strong>&#8230;if there is to be a persecution, perhaps it will be then; then, perhaps, when we are all of us in all parts of Christendom so divided, and so reduced, so full of schism, so close upon heresy.

Several years ago, as I drove to confession, I was suddenly overwhelmed with an incredible sadness; that all the beauty of the Church\u2014her art, her chants, her ornamentation, her incense, her candles, etc.\u2014must all go down into the tomb; that a persecution is coming that will take all this away so that we will have nothing left, but Jesus. I came home and wrote this short poem, which is constantly on my heart these days: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.markmallett.com\/blog\/weep-o-children-of-men\/\">Weep, O Children of Men<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva; font-size: 10pt;\"><strong>WEEP<\/strong>,\u00a0<em>O children of men! <\/em>Weep for all that is good, and true, and beautiful.

Michael Scanlan (1931-2017) gave an almost identical prophecy that Dr. Ralph Martin recently recovered.

It is not the &#8220;chastisements&#8221; that are coming that frighten me. It is the thought that the youth of this generation, left virtually shepherdless, will be swept up and deceived by this Marxist revolution; that the blood of the unborn would continue to be spilled through abortion; that seniors would continue to be abandoned and isolated and euthanized; that pornography would continue to destroy the fertile minds of men and women; that the message to pursue pleasure alone would continue to corrupt this generation; and that our young would have their innocence robbed by a hedonistic agenda we call &#8220;sex education.&#8221; It is not that God would intervene with Divine Justice that I find frightening, but that He would leave us to our own devices! Hence, the present and coming purification <em>is mercy, not an ill<\/em>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"LEFT\">As Our Lady said, Jesus wanted to reign by love, but we have prevented Him. Five years later, He said virtually the same thing to Servant of God Luisa Piccarreta:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p align=\"LEFT\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;\"><em><strong>My will wants to Triumph, and would want to Triumph by means of Love in order to Establish Its Kingdom.
