Medjugorje Commentary on evils in general.

[May 13, 1990 on the Anniversary of the Fatima apparations at Fatima,
Father Gobbi received a message from the Blessed Mother, excerpts of which follow:]

"I came down from heaven 73 years ago, in this Cova da Iria, to point out for you the path you should tread in the course of this difficult century of yours... Humanity has not accepted my motherly request to return to the Lord along the road of conversion of heart and of life, of prayer and of penance. It has known terrible years of the second world war, which brought about tens of millions of deaths and vast destruction of populaces and of nations.. Satan has been the uncontested dominator of the events of this century of yours, bringing all humanity to the rejection of God and of His law of love, spreading far and wide division and hatred, immorality, and wickedness, and legitimating everywhere divorce, abortion, obscenity, homosexuality and recourse to any and all means of obstructing life...I am coming down from heaven (now in these times) so that the final secrets may be revealed to you and that I may be able thus to prepare you for what as of now, you must live through, for the purification of the earth... Humanity will live through the moment of its great chastisement and thus will be made ready to receive the Lord Jesus who will return to you in glory.. For this reason, especially today, I am coming down again from heaven: through my numerous apparations through the messages which I give and, through this extraordinary work of my Marian Movement of Priest, to prepare you to live through the events which are even now in the process of being fulfilled, in order to lead you by the hand to walk along the most difficult and painful segment of this your second advent, and to prepare the minds and the hearts of all to receive Jesus at the closely approaching moment of His glorious return."
