So, Madrid has elevated the usual discussion of St. Malachi’s prophecies to the dreams of St. John Bosco. All speculation!

It is the Silly Season, after all. If only more commentators could say to themselves, “Self, you don’t have anything really useful to say on this subject. Take the day off!”

Here's Cardinal George's FULL quote:
"I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history." http://www.ncregister.com/blog/tim-drake/the-myth-and-the-reality-of-ill-die-in-my-bed

We have a retired Priest in his 80’s who celebrates one of the daily Masses at a local Church, and the other day in his homily, he said that he heard that a lot of Cardinals are “Masons”, and if they happen to elect a Mason Pope, “we are done”.

Yes, but he us getting "up there" in both his age and his faculties, and just fills in for that Daily Mass due to the severe Priest shortage. (I believe that that "Cardinals/Masons" reference is some kind of conspiracy theory floating around.)

He tends to come out with things from time to time that make everyone turn and look at each other in the Mass.

(For example, he also once said that Russia was not properly consecrated to Mary yet, and they better get on with it.)

He is a very nice old Priest though, and we are so thankful for his service, "above and beyond".

Protestants and Catholics are connecting a awful bunch of dots lately. I have to admit we are living the last days no matter what is reported.

Jesus told Sister Faustina that Divine Mercy Chaplet and Divine Mercy Sunday is for the Last Days. Also when it would be initiated the Sunday after Easter Sunday. This is now years past. So we are well into it according to our Lord. This prediction was in 1930's just almost ten years before Israel came into existence for the modern era.

I personally have been Daily praying for ten years now this chaplet and I have seen several visions in my Dreams come true. They all happen when I prayed before bed. They are rare( I do not get them every day).

Only one was a national dream. I had this dream during a power outage. So I had no electricity but candle light. It ends with Obama in a grass field coming out of his limo with a tiny amount of secret service surrounding. He gets out looks up then looks at me. I look up and see an invading army parachuting in the sky. Then I woke up to candle light which became electric light as the power came back. Totally amazed me. So I believe this was accented for me to tell others. This is the only dream that has not occurred. I do believe this will happen.

My dream was News Years eve Night of 2008 becoming 2009 the January month when Obama was sworn in office. I saw the divisions that became true. I believe the Tea party protests and "occupy" protests.

I would not be surprised if our nation is knocked out as a super power. I believe this can happen before the second coming or antichrist years. 55 million babies sacrificed. More than what brought judgement to the Israel nation back in the day of the old testament.Remember the vote the Democratic party convention had on God and Israel. We have a democrat president who declared we are not Christian. All these things this man speaks can be a self-fulling prophecy.

Pray the Divine Mercy Prayer Chaplet. This is one of the most powerful prays.

"Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world"

"You expired, Jesus, but the source of life gushed forth for souls, and the ocean of mercy opened up for the whole world. O Fount of Life, unfathomable Divine Mercy, envelop the whole world and empty Yourself out upon us."

"O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!"

"Eternal God, in whom mercy is endless and the treasury of compassion inexhaustible, look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us, that in difficult moments we might not despair nor become despondent, but with great confidence submit ourselves to Your holy will, which is Love and Mercy itself."

Amen!

Johngrace,

I have also had many things happen and become true that was given to me at Adoration. One example was I saw the Tsunami that devastated Japan the day before it happened, but there are others

One of the most vivid events was during a dream though. It was about the president of China dressed in black killing many people and being completely controlled by satan, my dream ended with Jesus and The Blessed annihilating this man and casting him into hell
