** It will be impossible to use any man-made lighting during this darkness, except blessed candles.**
Nothing but blessed candles will shed light -- be sure you have ones that are at least 51 percent beeswax. Otherwise -- no light!
**During these three days, people should remain in their homes, pray the Rosary and beg God for mercy."**
As Catholics we constantly exhort people to pray the Rosary. This is a time when EVERYONE will learn and say the Rosary. Alleluia!
**"All the enemies of the Church, whether known or unknown, will perish over the whole earth during that universal darkness, with the exception of a few whom God will soon convert.**
A warning to all who diss out Blessed Mother and the Saints as well as the Catholic Church. Take heed and change your ways!
**"Religion shall be persecuted, and priests massacred Churches shall be closed, but only for a short time. The Holy Father shall be obliged to leave Rome."**
This is the first time that I have seen that churches will be re-opened after being closed, but it makes perfect sense, for all people will flock to these churches. The survivors, that is, will flock to churches. The persecution is underway and I believe we will see more of it. Priests are already being killed.....and in my estimation this can only increase with our present state of affairs and leadership (lack therefore, that is.) I have read elsewhere that Pope Benedict, our current Pope, will spend days in exile.
**More importantly it is crucial to note that Our Lady of Fatima echoed the same sentiments when she warned us at Fatima in 1917, thus giving support to these two previous prophecies.**
Don't need to say anything here -- other than pray the Rosary daily!
**“After the three days of darkness, Saints Peter and Paul, having come down from heaven, will preach throughout the world and designate a new pope.**
Have you seen or heard this prophecy before? It's new to me.
You should do more of that point by point commenting in threads — it is good. These accounts have some new information to me also.
Gamma rays would not penetrate Earth’s atmosphere well to burn the ground, but they would chemically damage the stratosphere. Melott estimates that if WR 104 were to hit us with a burst 10 seconds or so long, its gamma rays could deplete about 25 percent of the world’s ozone layer, which protects us from damaging ultraviolet rays. In comparison, the recent human-caused thinning of the ozone layer, creating “holes” over the polar regions, have only been depletions of about 3 to 4 percent, he explained.
“So that would be very bad,” Melott told SPACE.com. “You’d see extinctions. You might see food chain collapses in the oceans, might see agricultural crises with starvation.”
Gamma ray bursts would also trigger smog formation that could blot out sunlight and rain down acid.

“The flash of heat and light might flash-burn anything not in the shade,” he said. “Heating the atmosphere would cause big winds. The air would be much hotter for weeks, as hot as an oven depending on the distance. This would affect the other side of the Earth eventually.”

First off it isn’t The Church, it is a church.
Second, well most here know what the list includes.
A warning to all who diss out Blessed Mother and the Saints as well as the Catholic Church. Take heed and change your ways!*smiles*

darkness for three days? sounds like when MtPinatubo went...between the dust and the typhoon, it was a mess...
But remember, prophecies are often sent to warn about local problems but later people think they mean the end of the world.
The prophecies before Diocletian’s persecution were seen as the end of the world...what they meant was that the Christians would be in trouble...but then God gave European Christians a breathing time to recover before the chastisement of the fall of Rome, the invasions, and the Justinian plague caused havoc and depopulation.
Ditto the prophecies of the high middle ages...preceded the black death.
John Paul II and Benedict see the end of the age, with a dechristianization of Europe and maybe the US, so the church will be marginalized in the NWO and maybe persecuted. They do not see the “end of the world”.
And there are prophecies of an “era of peace” that will come after troubles...some think we are living in that era now...
my favorite prophecy was that the little folks who continue to pray will overcome the NWO, and that the revival will start in the Philippines. When I read it, I thought the seer was nuts, but now, 30 years later, I realize that millions of Catholic Christian Pinoys work all over the world, including over a million in the Muslim Middle East...hmm...that wasn’t true when the seer made her prediction.
So “do not be afraid”...
Where does one obtain the blessed candles?
