THE PROPHECY
Nowadays, when sin is promoted, people are introduced
to the state of sin
so that they did not see God.
Many people can't see God anymore due to their sin.
They can't see God, because sin makes it impossible to see God.
People seat for hours in front of their TVs
and absorb everything that is being given them,
they do it up to the point of thinking and talking
the way someone from TV or radio or the Internet does.
There is no critical approach at all.
There is no afterthought, no search for truth.
They are bombarding us with meaningless pieces of information,
mostly leisure and entertainment, things of interest,
banalities, immoral things.
Bombarding that surrounds you all day and night.
You have no time to think
and become a gratis transmitter for those,
who create this mechanism to addle conscience and minds
and you rent your brain out.
Atrocities …
the other day I learned about an African country
in which women are kept in empty former orphanages
and are forced to get pregnant.
Their children are sold for EUR 4, 5 and even 11 thousand
for illegal trafficking or organ trafficking.
This is hell.
I am sure it is even worse than before World War II
when it comes to pride, debauchery…
before World War II certain sins
have not been committed to such extent…
greed, which is a terrible thing,
not to mention such atrocities like abortion, paedophilia, and so on.
Today we are experiencing what in Europe
and all over the world is called gender ideology.
It is the highest level,
the European Union, the United Nations, USA.
So here we have gender ideology
that enters with all the facts of feminism,
the revolution of 1968.
These are all these phases:
abortion, which started in 1909,
the entire history they build,
all the programs they create at the international level,
because they have money, press, mass media,
because they work in the Internet,
so now they reached gender ideology, which is about destroying family.
Those, who say it is not true, should read Marx.
Mostly in his last period, shortly before his death,
Marx said clearly, that chaos should be created all over the world,
because by creating chaos, total confusion,
and therefore destruction of everything
that the Judaeo-Christian religion has achieved so far,
chaos will finally make it possible for Satan
to reign and create his own order.
Every time I attend
international meeting in Fatima
and talk with extremely prudent persons,
like professor Americo Ortez Lopez,
and when he says that when World Apostolate of Fatima
that has the mandate of the Church says something,
it is the official statement of the Church,
I know I will never hear a cheap sensation,
because they are always cautious, like the Church.
So when I come to the meetings and I keep hearing:
we live on the verge of apocalyptic events
and we must get ready for them,
and it is said in the name of the Church, in human terms I am frightened.
I am sure there is something ahead of us.
During my prayer the Lord has shown me,
that there will be purification through fire and water.
I do not know, what He meant by this.
It would be naïve to think, that things will remain unchanged
and we can put some money aside for our retirement.
This time the consequence, for this is not going to be a direct punishment,
only that God cannot stop certain consequences,
will be top-notch.
It is not going to be World War II or World War III,
I have no idea what it is going to be,
but I know who is going to survive – the poorest and families,
which does not depreciate single persons,
it applies to those, who destroy families,
because life in celibacy is as beautiful as living in the family.
I pity those, who have millions on their bank accounts.
When is it going to happen? "This generation will not pass."
A generation is 40 years.
Terrifying?
Perhaps in none of the European nations
so many people are cleaving to God,
blindly, half-blindly, seeing, understanding,
but they are being attracted,
it can easily be seen,
for example in confessionals of our sanctuary.
I notice that Poles,
as sister Faustina said, or as Jesus said to sister Faustina,
have got an important task for Poland,
Europe and the entire world,
because Poland retained
significant religious sensitivity to Jesus Christ.
While travelling throughout Poland, it can be seen,
that people are very open to the Holy Spirit.
I believe that we have to react swiftly, immediately,
because Poland still has capacities to react and transform history
by bringing the nation together around traditional values,
such as faith, the family, justice and integrity.
Temporal suffering, also suffering of our nation,
may have, sorry to put it like this, a salvific function.
In God's plans suffering of the nation and individuals
may be used for the sake of good and genuine happiness.
Poland has got the grace,
a different charism
and has got another power that is the blood of martyrs.
This is the power on which Poland has built its history
in her battle against all the ideologies:
Hitler's Nazism and Stalin's Marxism.
Poland was able to defy all the false idols
the world wishes to substitute God with
and which do not elevate man, but destroy him.
If we look at the last decades, despite everything,
our nation was saved from the total destruction of faith
observable in many countries of the former Eastern Block.
Despite everything the Good News has been proclaimed.
But even before,
because these were the prophecies
given to sister Faustina in the interwar period,
but prophetically they went way beyond this period,
but in the 20s and 30s we forgot,
that the grace of freedom was given to Poland
as the generosity of God's mercy.
"I bear a special love for Poland.
From her will come forth the spark
that will prepare the world for My final coming."
Jesus adds:
"If she will be obedient to My will."
If Poland is obedient to God's will,
we'll get a great mission of some kind.
God told Elijah
that he found 7 000 of those, whose lips did not kiss Baal.
So you can be on the Balearic Islands or in Brussels, wherever.
But for sure there are 7 000 people,
or I believe even more than in the times of Elijah,
who are ready for the coming of the spark
and they will catch fire.
In a significant part of the faithful society
you can feel some sort of a tension:
who is it going to be, when is he going to come?
Poland is a phenomenon on the market of apparitions and prophesies.
We are talking about the ones
in which Poland is the subject of apparitions.
It is quite strange,
but many prophesies about Poland come from abroad.
One might try to look at the entire history of Poland
from the perspective of the history of the apparitions
given to Giulio Mancianelli
related to the title of Virgin Mary the Queen of Poland.
He was a Jesuit priest famous for his willingness
to give Virgin Mary various titles.
So we have Naples,
a very pious Italian Jesuit priest,
who hears, already in 1608, that a beloved title of Mary
she wants people to use not only in Poland,
is the Queen of Poland.
After half a century it was Jan Casimirus,
who declared Virgin Mary the Queen of Poland.
So was she already our Queen in heaven pursuant to God's ruling,
and we recognised it half a century later?
Later on, before World War II,
there was yet another voice of the so called woman from Podlesie,
we have a voice of father Markiewicz...
Personally I treat these voices as important but marginal.
They are important, because they verify for us
the common theme of the prophesies.
What else?
In Italy, brother Lodovico Rocca,
started prophesying about Poland
on his deathbed, and he wasn't even aware
where Poland really was.
Of course a Salesian priest, my fellow brother, cardinal Hlond,
used to talk a lot about chosennes of Poland.
According to him Poland was chosen in a special way by Heaven,
however under one condition:
if she carries out her Marian mission.
We have a few post-war prophesies, quite interesting ones, too.
For example, there is a prophesy by a great German mystic Therese Neuman,
who said, that should World War III break,
Poland will survive, unlike Germany.
She introduces the theme of reparative suffering – she says:
"For you, Poles, have already drank you chalice of blood,
so you can, so to speak, sleep well."
But perhaps we should also mention the phenomenon of Fatima,
because it does not stop in 1917.
Every time I talk to people who are familiar
with a first-hand account of, for example,
sister Lucia'a letters to John Paul II
I am told, that she would always discuss Poland with him.
Both Fatima and the message of Divine Mercy
concern preparation of the world for the Second Coming,
so maximalisation of trust of every person,
regardless his or her culture,
accepting Christ as the only Saviour.
It is written that before the end of the world
the sign of the cross, of the Lord, shall appear in the sky.
According to Faustina
the wounds of Christ shall be filled with light,
this will be the sign for the entire world.
This was an ordinary nun, an ordinary woman,
who could hardly read and write,
and Jesus told her many beautiful words,
one of them being the prophesy concerning Poland.
Many people do not wish to talk about it.
They would claim that this is not Poland,
we are not the Messiah of the nations, we cannot feel superior…
But on the other hand we cannot erase it,
because we'd have to get rid of the entire message of Faustina,
her Diary, or to claim it was all simply symbolic.
The notion of private revelations may be a bit confusing in this respect.
Jesus' words written down in the Diary,
which is known all over the world, had not been written down
to remain simply between sister Faustina and Him.
Each and every one of us is meant to learn about them.
Fine, "I bear a special love for Poland",
but "if she will be obedient to My will"
some things will happen, some process will be initiated.
It seems to me that this conditionality is the result of God's will,
because God wants to give is a chance to answer Him,
He does not want to make us answer,
but on the other hand He bestows a huge responsibility on us.
Just imagine,
if someone very powerful, Omnipotent, makes a proposal,
and this proposal is neglected, responsibility gets bigger,
whereas if there is no proposal, responsibility is smaller.
God never makes anyone do anything,
or at least does not wish to act like this.
Therefore the words:
"If she will stay obedient and faithful to the will of Christ"
are so significant.
This is the initial, most important and indispensable condition
for the spark to come forth from Poland to the entire world.
Probably the most afflicted nation is Israel.
Why? Because they had been chosen.
If God says: "I bear special love for Poland"
it is as if He was saying: "I chose you."
So now, "If you do not enter into this covenant,
if you neglect it..."
what can we expect?
When Messiah came,
and the Talmud and the Scriptures have over
2000 prophecies concerning Messiah,
the Talmud speaks of Messiah clearly, everything was specified,
including the latitude and His behaviour,
and still He gets rejected,
after 40 years Jerusalem is gone, then we have Aelia Capitolina,
and 2000 years of diaspora, ghettos, holocaust...
So "I bear a special love for Poland,
you are the chosen nation, I want to come to you."
What should happen now?
Fear or happiness, or both?
And what about this word "if",
because it appears in the Covenant of Sinai, too.
What do you want to choose?
We need to understand, that when Jesus gives a prophesy,
or when he makes a promise,
He never fulfils it on His own,
because He gave us freedom.
So the more we response in a positive manner
to Jesus' proposals concerning obedience and sainthood,
the more a gift grows.
If we don't do what He asks us to do,
in other words if we do not respond freely
and we do not make any commits,
prophesy is not fulfilled.
The spark is also mentioned in the prophesy.
This is awareness of a special love by God.
As a Pole I am getting more responsible...
let's say in most of us there is a bigger zeal,
some sort of a spark, we are to expect someone, but whom?
With God everything is frightfully conditional,
therefore it is difficult for us to read His plans.
For if we ask...
if the prophesies about Poland are unconditional,
in a sense that we do not know how,
but we know for sure that they are going to be fulfilled,
than there is no clear answer,
because as history teaches us,
God can take a mission away from one nation,
and give it to another, take a mission from a person,
who had been chosen and prepared for a mission,
and give it to someone else.
Let the example of the Chosen Nation suffice.
God may behave like Jesus, right?
When they did not want Him to be among them,
He would leave.
There are several scenes of this kind in the Gospel.
If the nations, or us, our society,
keep neglecting and avoiding Jesus, He may simply respect this choice.
It is very important that Poles
are made aware of the mission Heaven has given them.
They should be prepared.
Each of us should learn about this.
In my opinion we approach our destination
in an entirely different manner,
when we are aware of it.
We could ask if there are historical facts to prove
that the mechanism of fulfilling prophesies,
for such a mechanism does exist,
makes history happen according to God's dreams.
Or is it just our wishful thinking?
Let me use one example
that describes the way God's matters happen.
Virgin Mary told the three shepherds
that if they are obedient and repent,
pray the rosary and receive Holy Communion,
thanks to them Portugal will not collapse
during World War II.
And indeed, it was so.
Another factor is, that Jesus said,
that because sister Faustina was obedient,
attentive and followed His instructions,
Cracow would not be bombed,
and indeed, the city wasn't bombed,
contrary to Warsaw, which was totally destroyed.
All these facts, if we analyse them,
and if we analyse many histories of saints,
mystics, who were obedient to Christ,
we see that His promises are fulfilled.
It means, that if Poland, Poles,
people from Poland are faithful,
they will become a blessing for the entire world.
There is plenty of examples,
so let us use two,
national ones.
The first one would be the Siege of Vienna
in the middle of the 17th century.
Margaret Alacoque was so frightened by her vision...
We would have mosques all over the place today,
we would be either a persecuted Christian minority, or Muslims.
So saint Margaret Maria Alacoque started to repent bitterly
and ask God to do something and reverse the situation,
because everything is conditional with Him
and can be changed.
So Jesus comes to her after a few months and says:
"My rulings are changed
because of your suffering, prayer and repentance,
and because there will be a king, who, I quote:
'will not ascribe the victory over Islam to him,
as kings usually do, but to me and my mother.'"
Saint Margaret Maria Alacoque lived to see who this king was.
And again, this was the king of Poland.
Let me draw your attention to history.
We are a Slavic nation.
Before Mieszko...
these surroundings were inhabited by Slavic peoples
up to nearly half of the contemporary Germany,
up to Meklenburg, Saxony, and so on.
There were Obotrites, Varangians, etc.,
and they vanished, because they were pagans,
and Mieszko grasped the situation
and entered a skin, a container, a font.
He gets baptised, he is submerged in water,
true, he is not a king yet, but his son becomes a king.
All the kings of Poland
would come to Jasna Góra after accepting the power
and symbolically offer their crown to the Queen of Poland,
so that She might reign over the nation.
The last king – Poniatowski –
did not come to visit Jasna Góra at all.
And his reign in Poland was over.
Since that time none of the Polish rulers
had anything to do with entering water,
baptism, purification,
not to mention going to confession – a micro-font so to speak.
And all of a sudden we have this prophesy of Faustina
and this strange piece of architecture constructed in Krakow - Łagiewniki.
There is this high font-shaped tower.
This a wooden village font.
This tower is a vessel.
The second example,
closer to our times and better documented,
is the Battle of Warsaw.
Soviets were meant to win the battle
and conquer the rest of Europe within the next few months,
because everything was well prepared.
And the Polish nation was so deceived,
that people could see nothing.
There are accounts available
according to which shortly before August 15th
most citizens of Warsaw
were dancing, drinking and conducting business
in spite of the fact that the approaching Red Army
was destroying the country.
Piłsudski was sure of our defeat, the Piłsudski.
So the question arises, what happened and why the miracle took place?
The Miracle of the Vistula
is that the youngest generation of soldiers,
youngsters with no military experience,
were put to the very front of the battle
and they were destined to lose.
All of a sudden,
according to published accounts I had a chance to read,
a figure of Virgin Mary appeared over the youngest ones and saved them.
The phenomenon was confirmed later by Russian captives.
They got so frightened that they started to flee.
These are the examples of God protecting our country through Mary
in the situations in which Poland had no chance to win.
Never the nation will be entirely good,
never the entire nation will respond to God's invitation
and admit: yes, she is our Queen.
She is the Queen of Poland.
She can hardly bear all these ornaments,
most wonderful dresses.
They are beautiful, they look so nice,
but from history we know
that she didn't like to dress up that much.
But she copes...
What is far more important are the scars on her cheek.
The scars attracts far more strongly than diamond dresses,
because every disgraced person can look at Her face and say:
"there is nothing I can be ashamed of anymore."
That's beautiful about Her. The most beautiful jewel
of our Lady of Jasna Góra are the scars on Her face.
I would like to invite everyone to listen once again
to a meditation of pope Benedict XVI
from October 11, 2010, if I remember correctly.
He spoke about the woman from the Book of Revelation
and the dragon that let water like a river from its mouth
to destroy the child of the woman, which is the Church.
The pope says that this river of water vomited out by the demon,
the red dragon, to flood the Church
is soaked in the Book of Revelation by the ground.
The pope interprets the symbol of the ground
as simple faith of simple people, who are still praying.
Where do we find these simple people who still pray and keep faith?
We are probably the last nation in Europe
that still has faith and in which the Church exists.
Here churches are not sold, are not empty,
what's more, new ones are built.
What is the most important thing for me is faith of the most simple people.
Faith of people who may not understand,
who may not be acquainted with the Scriptures,
who do not know the doctrines and the rules,
but who have enormous faith in their hearts.
Just like my grannie, who could hardly write and read,
but she had no problem with faith and God,
she would walk to church 15 kilometres barefoot
and would gladly give her life for God.
She had no doctrinal problems at all, she was a simple woman,
who loved God and lived to be with God,
who eventually died with God.
It seems to me that Poland has such people
of strong, simple faith,
who build the Church from the bottom.
When we look at the task of faithfulness to God,
we immediately turn at the issue
of care for the Holy Sacraments,
since they are the sphere and the gift
in which the communion with God is realised.
One of the potential threats
is omitting or underestimating
the real presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament,
because not all Christians accept this.
Our founder, saint don Bosco said,
that if our actions for God's glory
are not focused on the Sacraments and do not lead to the Sacraments,
they are in fact deception, actions of the Evil one.
A correct understanding of the Bible makes us
spread the entire truth revealed by Him to all the world.
However, He also left us Himself. "Do this in remembrance of me,"
He left himself in the Most Sacred Sacrament
and the holy sacraments,
and it would be a misunderstanding
to reduce our piety, or the summit of our piety,
solely to praise and worship practice outside the Eucharist.
Look at what is going on in Poland right now.
The Eucharistic miracles in Legnica, Sokółka.
Jesus is giving us powerful signs and says:
"Gather around Me, I am the most important person here."
Please notice that the first Eucharistic miracle
in Lanciano was caused by disbelief of a priest
in the real presence of the body and blood of Christ
under the signs he was holding in his hands.
In the majority of cases, when it comes to Eucharistic miracles,
this is God's reaction to blasphemy, sacrilege and disbelief.
If there are such signs in Poland, it means that God says:
"Something is beginning to be wrong here.
Somebody is profaning the Body of the Lord.
Somebody is putting someone through a confessional
without absolution."
I don't know. "Somebody is losing faith."
God reminds us about Himself.
Let us not make Him perform such miracles.
It is better to believe that God is miraculous.
We are not in heaven yet,
and we have to be very careful and discern between good and evil.
Therefore the Apostles would warn us not to be merely happy,
because your sins had been redeemed, but to be prudent.
They would repeat Jesus' words:
"Be as pure as doves, but as wise as serpents.
Don't let yourself be deceived,
because a wolf in sheep's clothing may come and do you harm.
Don't subdue to various divisions,
human ambitions, spiritual visions."
This is why Paul says:
"But God forbid that I should glory,
except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ."
Personally, as a monk, I must say
that a day without contemplating the passion of the Lord
is wasted,
because I noticed that the deeper I go into the contemplation of the passion,
the better I enter the mystery of the Eucharist.
It's all interconnected,
so there should be no surprises in this respect.
It is very simple: the Bible, confession, the Eucharist,
and offering oneself to Virgin Mary:
just as God entrusted Himself to Mary, a man should be entrusted to Mary.
That's all.
The Eucharist and going to confession on a regular basis,
these are the things Poland should be faithful to
and be able to experience difficulties
that as a matter fact cannot be avoided in this world,
the ideal shall never be achieved here.
Jesus promised us: "I will not abandon you until the very end."
So the question is, will I abandon Him?
It is not Him, who abandons me,
it is me who goes astray, and this is where the snag is.
Let us come back to Him through His Mother.
He's been with Her for 30 years, a grown up man,
who has had only three years of public ministry
and 30 years with his mother.
This is an extremely powerful sign for us.
The only way is to remain with the Mother, under the cross,
because only she can lead us to our destined place.
There is no other way!
Only through her it is possible to go to Jesus.
This issue seems to be quite vital, not only because I am a Pauline monk.
Theologically speaking it is very obvious,
perhaps not for our Protestant brothers, but for me it is.
I am talking about the role of Mary.
She is not some sort of a queen,
she is not just added to the salvific plan,
she is the key and central person. Why?
Because, let's say she is the spark, one of a kind.
God, in order to become a man,
needed her.
Without her He would not be configured to us
and would not step down to our level.
He chose precisely this way.
He did not land from the outer space, like some sort of a transformer,
but went through the woman's womb,
also to elevate feminine dignity in Mary,
to heal women, as it were, starting from the most intimate place.
I am down on my knees in front of this project.
When we ask:
"What should we do for the prophesies to be fulfilled in a clear way?",
the answer is known to us.
We need to start a fight
for rebirth of Marian devotion in Poland,
that would not be pure, holy and empty bigotry,
but that would transform our lives.
Our Polish ways to sainthood are not very spectacular.
When we look at our saints,
since almost 300 years
there has been no stigmatists, no miracle workers.
Usually they are quite ordinary people,
whose Marian devotion put on ordinary routes
and they are the biggest saints in God's eyes,
just like our Lady is, in a sense, the most ordinary one.
She said: "I do not exist"
and this is why God could act through her,
for she took no place for herself and left everything for Him.
Mary protects us
from turning away from Jesus.
This is the real danger,
because when we consider the knowledge
we have from the Desert Fathers from the third century,
all the existing demons have only one purpose –
to turn us away from Jesus.
What Mary does is just the opposite.
She turns us around and puts us in front of Jesus,
so that we might look at Him.
You can see it in Gietrzwałd, this is Mary's concern.
Every man who wants to get closer to Jesus, cannot ignore her.
If he ignores her, rejects her, says she is a kind of a demon,
then his contact with Jesus is illusory,
he deludes himself that he has something to do with Jesus.
Without Mary God had no direct contact with a man,
there was no chance for intimacy,
so without Mary a man has no chance
to have intimacy with God in Jesus Christ.
Let's come back to the Bible, 1 Kings, chapter 7.
There is a description of a temple built by Huram and Solomon.
No one was allowed to enter the inner part of the temple,
meaning an intimate relation with God, without prior purification in what?
a vessel translated into Polish as the Sea,
in Latin "Maria", are you with me?
If someone didn't wash himself, he would not be allowed inside.
No intimacy with God. He would be allowed to stare at the Temple.
That's a Conditio sine qua non
for an intimate relation with Jesus – Mary.
If somebody rejects her, his contact with Jesus is an illusion.
In the Book of Wisdom, chapter 6 verses 13-14, if I remember correctly,
it is said, that She, symbolised by Wisdom, is quicker...
wait a second, let me find this, it is even funny,
because it shows us a certain feature of the Mother of God
hidden in the Book of Wisdom.
"She anticipates those who desire her." What does the anticipation mean?
Even before I realise my desire to give myself to her
in order to be closer to Jesus, she is already by my side.
How fast can you be?
It's quicker than light.
It is said about Mary in the description of the Visitation
that she "hurried" to Ain Karim, 153 kilometers.
She is a marathon runner!
After 42 kilometers a soldier running from Marathon collapsed and died,
and she hurried with the child in her womb,
153 kilometers, runs to this cottage, hugs Elizabeth.
OK, you can say it was three days, but still...
Show me a woman capable of such an effort.
And she remained like this for the entire life?
For the entire eternity and was even multiplied!
She is faster. Look!
"She anticipates those who desire her by making herself known first."
So she makes herself known to those,
before they even realise they would like to get to know her.
A most incredible woman!
"She anticipates those who desire her by making herself known first.
Whoever gets up early to seek her..."
so you think no, I'll make it faster to a chapel,
for example I woke up at 4.30 a.m.,
I am kneeling by her statue trying to offer her my day,
fine, but who woke me up?
Statistics show that nowadays
Mary appears very often
in many places,
because the situation we experience
is so tragic, so dramatic,
that She says
that our Heavenly Father's patience is nearly over.
If we don't repent,
pray and receive the Sacraments, the punishment will come.
If we continue, and we do continue throughout the world,
the punishment will come.
We, as I have told you at the beginning,
should not be afraid.
What is important is living in obedience,
on a prayer, receiving the sacraments, going to confession,
praying the rosary, and God will give us His blessing.
There has never been so may apparitions authorised by the Church,
Mary has never talked so much before. She speaks to people of the 21 century.
The question is:
is it just a coincidence, is it just our imagination,
do we create such stories for ourselves?
Or perhaps there is a specific reason for which She comes to us
and says basically the same thing:
repent, repent, repent, change your life!
The same message is given in Medjugorie.
It's not about healing, miracles, the dancing Sun,
She tells us precisely what to do in order to get to Jesus.
In each and every apparition.
In the objections that our prophesies,
precisely our Catholic prophesies,
are so narrow and exclude others,
the issue of Marian devotion plays the central part.
On the other hand they prove authenticity of these prophesies,
because if so many prophesies are focused on Poland,
it is because Poland
is probably the only country in the world
that kept the real Marian devotion.
Let me differentiate between two types of Marian devotion -
one of them is "AT" devotion –
you look at Mary, admire her,
pray for help, graces, intercession, and so on,
and the other one, which is the basic one,
can be described as "HOW" devotion – you look at Our Lady and say:
"Ok, God gave me you as an example of how to live."
In history of Poland
has thousands of examples of people,
who tried to follow Mother of God in their ordinary lives.
This is the difference between our Marian devotion
and Marian devotion in other countries.
You can't see this much,
because Mother of God led an ordinary and simple life, didn't she?
The loop closes here.
These are ordinary and simple people,
who in God's plans will change the world.
As charismatic communities
we should once again offer ourselves to Mother of God.
She is the one that destroys every heresy,
therefore if we offer ourselves to her,
she will give us the spirit of discernment,
what comes from the Holy Spirit, and what is not.
We should also be aware of the fact,
that in the final Times
a false church and false Christ will be stablished.
We will experience the most perfidious
influence of antichrist, also within the Church.
Martha Robin says
that in the time the Church will be dying hang on the cross,
she must go precisely the way of Christ,
she must experience her own death.
Jesus has to die once again in the Church.
She claims that during this time
the world will be covered in total darkness,
and it will seem that the Church is dead,
that the Church is not there anymore.
The darkness will be so dense.
The persecuted Church will return to the catacombs.
This will be this Rest, hiding in the desert,
as 12 chapter of the Book of Revelation tells us.
The Rest will be fed by God in a supernatural way
for "time, times and half a time,"
but in the context of reality it will be so hidden,
that it will seem that the Church does not exist anymore,
the Church lost and Satan won.
Maybe the Church will remain in the catacombs, be persecuted,
maybe, as somebody told me once,
I will celebrate Mass at private homes in hiding,
I do not know,
but he said: "Whatever happens, you may be stripped of everything,
maybe they will deprive you of all your dignity
and you will be dishonoured, but remember: persevere!"
Persecution of the Church
shall end by the three days of darkness
prophesied by many saints
and ordinary people.
I am absolutely sure about it.
These days will decide upon who is going to stay in the world,
and who is going to be taken away.
It will be Lord Jesus himself,
who will appear and destroy, crush, kill the antichrist
by the breath of His mouth.
The Church will be resurrected anew.
Undoubtedly it will be a surprise for everyone,
ranging from the pope to ordinary people,
just like Jesus said: "I will come like a thief."
All of a sudden everyone will see open heavens
and Christ surrounded by angels,
coming with power and majesty
and the next moment
they will have to follow His eyes, as it were,
and look at themselves and their entire lives.
God is preparing for our generation something
which is going to be the greatest act of His mercy,
gift of Mercy,
namely this particular proposition everyone is going though after death
will be experienced by them here, on earth.
Therefore some people call it the Warning.
It is not going to be the Warning for those who follow Christ,
but it will be the Warning for some,
who will see Satan in their souls.
For there is no emptiness, there can't be,
we are the temple
created by God and for God.
If we expel God by a grave sin,
the throne of our soul is taken by Satan.
Emptiness is impossible.
The question is, whether this is the apocalypse of the end times
or is it the apocalypse of the last times?
If we take Fatima as the point of reference,
because this is safe,
the answer is, this is not the end of time.
This is because Mother of God says,
which is methodologically forgotten by people,
"In the end",
that is after this apocalyptic horde of demons that will attack us,
"my Immaculate Heart will triumph."
But there is no full stop here, there is "and" here.
"And a period of peace will be granted to the world."
So the end of the world is not mentioned here,
no Second Coming is prophesized.
Perhaps what is at stake here is "the period of peace"
announced by many prophets,
perhaps this is "the civilization of love"
proclaimed by pope John Paul II.
There is this promise of the new times among the transitional period,
the period of suffering, fights, trials
and prosecutions of the Church.
We are now at the highest point of the spiritual warfare.
But there is also the promise of Fatima:
"In the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph."
There is the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary; two similar devotions.
What is interesting, sister Lucia in several places in her letters
wrote that the announced hour of the triumph
of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in the end,
which is unconditional, would be the triumph of Mary and Jesus.
The Hearts of Mary and Jesus.
My intuition is,
since the apparitions of Fatima are not the final ones,
there shall be new signs,
the apparitions of Margaret Maria Alacouqe,
Celakówna and Faustina do not conclude the topic,
there will be other signs.
There is an event ahead,
when the two separate devotions will meet.
Lucia writes clearly about it. Fatima will fulfil its task
and the entire school of devotion
starting from Margaret Maria Alacouqe
will fulfil its purpose when the Church, the faithful
will enter into the so called Covenant of the Three Hearts.
We'll see that the very essence of Christianity
is unity of Mary and Her heart with Jesus,
which is the very essence of man,
and in this unity there is space for each of us.
Not the Covenant of the Most Sacred Heart
and the Immaculate Heart, but of mine, too.
This is what Lucia prophesises about:
a new generation that will radically change the world,
because this is what we are waiting for.
Notice that the first theme, related to Mary and Fatima,
runs clearly through Poland.
This seam is Polish, there is no doubt about it.
Just as one heart can change the world,
the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
hearts of many saints...
John Paul II used to say,
that statistics are not to be applied to the Church.
How many of you are there?
Hitler asked: "How many divisions has the pope? How many tanks?"
What kind of question is it?
Because in the Church the quantity does not count.
How many baptised do we have? It does not matter.
How many people united with God are there,
through whom He may enter our world?
This is what the covenant with God is all about.
Sister Lucia lived to form this generation on earth.
She offered all her prayers and religious life
for education and formation of this new generation.
It is very important.
Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort spoke clearly about this generation
and called the saints of this time the apostles of the end time.
There is a chapter in "A Treatise" by Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort
I really recommend. It is about the apostles of the end time.
He says in it that he does not know when we are to expect this period.
For sure we need these apostles. The Church and the world needs them.
This generation will be characterised by a special devotion to Our Lady,
a special love to her,
and they will be shaped in her womb by the power of the Holy Spirit.
In the end times the world needs truly Marian apostles,
beloved disciples of Jesus,
who will take Mary into their homes, just like St. John.
I started reading "A Treatise" and a fragment on false Marian devotions
and realised that everything was about me.
Rattling off prayers, the rosary, pilgrimages,
all these you do just for yourself…
So I started studying "A Treatise",
I still keep a copy of the book in my chapel,
almost every single sentence might become a topic of prayer,
what Our Lady will give you in return,
not only will she protect you, you'll get faith, everything,
but at the same time you have to become her slave.
People are afraid of the word "slave",
but in this context it implies a son in the most perfect meaning of the word.
The primate Wyszyński explained the issue:
suppose there is a mother getting up at night
and taking care of her child in spite of her weariness.
Isn't she, in a sense, a slave to her child,
a slave of love in a good sense?
Yes, she is indeed.
An ideal state would be this type of dedication and trust
that would enable people to make great sacrifices
and have courage to fight until the end for truth and love.
We are not talking about quantity, but about quality.
For God it is enough to have 10 righteous,
like in the times of Abraham, to save the world.
Sister Lucia says that a small group of people,
the new generation, is needed to change the world,
including political authorities. Everything will be changed,
so there's no need for large-scale activities,
there's no need for "let's the whole world do it" attitude.
He is waiting for those,
who will respond to His invitation from the bottom of their hearts.
If we have such people, this world will change according to His scenario.
What is this spark that comes out of Gietrzwałd?
What is this spark that comes out of Poland?
In this place there is only one name that comes to my mind: Mary.
When I am trying to find one word
to summarise the message of Our Lady of Gietrzwałd,
the word is the name of Jesus.
Everything that is said by Our Lady:
invitation to the rosary and prayer
is shown in the picture of Our Lady, in which she points at Jesus.
I can't find any other word
that would summarise the apparitions of Gietrzwałd,
the name of Jesus.
And the spark is her mother, Mary.
I remember one conversation I had
on the topic we are discussing now with a Jesuit priest.
I said: "We have such a wonderful prophecy on Poland
by sister Faustina.
'I bear a special love for Poland.' Tell me, father, for what reason?
We don't vary from other nations, we don't vary at all!
Perhaps we have even more sins that cry to God for justice.
We don't vary at all.
So why does Jesus talk about this special love for Poland?"
The Jesuit priest smiled and said:
"You have already answered your question.
Because we know that we are sinners,
and the other nations don't realise this."
We are not saints and we never will be,
but at least we are aware of our sinfulness
and we go to confession.
This is internationally exceptional.
Maybe this is why God is able to take this ordinary broom,
which is our nation, and do use it according to His will,
because we know that we are just a poor quality broom.
God has got a sense of humour.
He likes doing impossible things out of the worse material,
for example something out of nothing,
cosmos out of chaos, the world out of emptiness,
He is a sort of inventor.
So if He chose Poland, that's because,
Deuteronomy, 7,7 is probably the best answer,
can I quote?
Why did he choose Israel? Why did he choose Poland?
Probably the same answer.
It's not because the winged hussars won over Charles IX of Sweden
in the battle of Kircholm.
"The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you
because you were more numerous than other peoples,
for you were the fewest of all peoples."
He chose me because I am zero,
He chose Poland because she is zero,
that is why He chose her.
It well might be the answer, but I'm not sure.
This spark from Poland cannot be a statesman
or even a cardinal or a pope,
because his voice will be ignored by the world.
Maybe it is going to be a woman or a man, I really don't know.
For sure it is not going to be a person of a high-visibility.
Someone very... surprising.
When I observe history and the Bible and I see it is always like this.
Most probably God did not change His ways.
He always chooses someone very ordinary.
It is interesting that people who are His sparks
usually have some problems with talking.
For example Moses and Abraham were such sparks.
He was no one.
From the point of view of history Abraham was no one, just zero.
He is not known in great books of history.
In the Book of Sirach Elijah is called Fire,
so you can say he was a spark, too.
As a matter of fact he remained unknown to his contemporaries.
Only after a few centuries
he was recognised as someone important,
who prepared the way for Elisha.
Now Elishua is another form of Jehoshua,
Jeshua – again, it's prefiguration of Christ.
John the Baptist came in the spirit of Elijah,
so the history repeats itself, only on different levels.
We can understand this,
if we look at history in a different manner,
not as a line but rather as a plane out of which,
as if from behind a curtain, a structure of eternity emerges -
what God wants to do with history,
and it manifests itself in entire history,
therefore certain elements repeat themselves like fractals,
because they are God's plan. Sparks are constantly being created.
This spark from Poland can be,
if perceived from the outside, totally invisible.
It may be something so small and humble
that there is no need to raise our voice,
but to motivate people
who are not afraid of their everyday cross,
to offer themselves for humanity.
Since the middle of 19th century in various apparitions
there has been this topic of expiative suffering.
God is searching for people who will say:
"God, if there is a need for healing the world and saving it,
leading it to God's ultimate purpose, saving it from a catastrophe,
I am ready to accept suffering and save the world from suffering."
Even a single person, when standing in front of God
accepting his cross and offering it to God,
becomes this spark.
So there is no need for millions of people.
Well, if there were many, it would be great,
but God in His plans,
on the last day before His Parousia
will close this number and set His own limit.
Our task is to do as much as possible
to increase this number of dedicated people.
I am sure it refers to an individual, for in the Bible we can see
that individuals are of the utmost importance.
The spark is someone
living in an incredibly close relation with God,
but this person is not necessarily recognised,
well, maybe in a small group.
Should we interpret this word "spark" as a flash of light
in the context of other prophesies that include the image of light?
The author is the same – God,
so it stands to reason to answer: yes.
So we might substitute the word "spark" with "God"
who is Light, according to sister Lucia.
From Poland God will come forth –
His grace and power,
which is the only power able to change the world.
It must be some sort of a movement
joined by everyone
willing to pick up and offer their personal cross,
who will be able to sort of raise the bar
and offer themselves for the entire world.
God does not want to destroy us, there's no doubt about it.
He does want to save every single person.
He died and rose from the dead for everyone,
so He does not want a sinner to perish,
but to convert and have eternal life.
Remember, take care of your soul! What did you do for your soul?
Where are you today in case of the end of the world,
your heart attack, car crash, cancer diagnosis?
Where are you today in your life?
Are you prepared? For this is your end of the world.
If we do what we are to do, there is no…
A trial will be simply a promotion.
It's like the flood.
Since Noah was very close to God,
his relationship was extremely intimate,
and other people were in a moral swamp,
when the flood came,
Noah would go up and be promoted when the water went up,
and those who had no relationship with God
went to the bottom.
If you experience intimacy with the Lord,
when a trial comes, your life is getting better and better.
But if your relationship with God is poor,
or if you have a very childish vision of God,
you get stuck in mud.
And the flood will come anyway, the flood is simply grace.
For some it is the malediction, for some it is the blessing.
In order to endure this trial of the flood
you have to be inside the arc, so again, I repeat:
the Bible, Eucharist, confession, offering oneself to Our Lady.
If I am locked in it, what do I care about the flood?
I am enjoying the Balearic Islands!
I wish to tell Poles, friends,
particularly the young and children,
and you:
I want to tell you that you are the spark!
You are the spark that can light the world up
and spread the fire of the Holy Spirit
for the entire mankind.
