For over a century, since the revelations of the Sacred Heart at Paray-le-Monial, Heaven had seemingly remained silent. This was to end on the 18th of July 1830, at Rue du Bac, Paris, when Our Lady asked St Catherine Labore to have a medallion made that would bring graces to all who wore it. This Wolf will waste few lines on the story of what would become known as the "Miraculous Medal". The name itself aptly describes both the sacramental and the phenomenon that exploded across the world with the force of a million mortars in just a few short years. Just a few years later, in 1846, Our Lady appeared to Maximin Girard and Melanie Calvet in the fields high above the town of La Salette, France. Tragically, the message got garbled by the Satanic Pederasts. Bits and pieces of the authentic message survived: "Rome will lose the Faith and become the Seat of the Antichrist." "The Priests have become Cesspools of Impurity." "Satan will become as the King of Hearts." When composing the Secret, Melanie asked one of the Sisters how to spell the word "Antichrist". Unfortunately, the only place where the word appears is in a description as to how Satan will impregnate a "Jewish Nun" and describes a scene which sounds more apropos to a Supermarket Tabloid than coming from Our Lady. All that notwithstanding, Our Lady would appear at Lourdes, France, in a series of apparitions which captured the imagination of the masses, and inspired devotion. Our Lady, however, said nothing epochal at Lourdes. She just left a message for the clergy and the popes: "I AM the Immaculate Conception". The Pastor was dumbfounded when the Stupid Little Bernadette uttered the phrase in her peasant dialect. A greater theological bombshell had not exploded since St John had put pen to paper on Patmos.
But it was at Fatima, Portugal, that Our Lady was to make her Wonderful Entrance onto what Zbigniew Brzezinski would call "The Grand Chessboard". Our Lady chose well. Fatima was far enough removed from the Revolution that its inhabitants were still simple and pious, yet close enough to the World Stage that it would quickly be broadcast far and wide. Now, this Wolf does not know the day and hour that Pope Benedict XV and the Satanic Pederasts at the Vatican were privy to the events unfolding across the Portuguese countryside, but Lisboa (Lisbon) is one of only Four Latin Patriarchal Seats, and, given that thousands converged on the little hamlet of Fatima for the July 13th Apparition- which had been announced weeks in advance- it is safe to assume that the Primate in Lisbon, Cardinal António Mendes Belo, was privy to the events the first week of July. This Wolf also assumes that the Cardinal duly informed his superior, Benedict XV, in the weeks that followed.
Church and State were united in trying to silence Fatima. The Pastor of the local church of St Anthony, Fr Manuel Ferreira, was strongly opposed to the Apparitions. Goaded by St Sr Lucia's mother, Maria Rosa dos Santos, the priest, after overwhelming evidence these were not childrens' fabrications, but preternatural events, decided they must be from the devil. In fact, so convinced was St Sr Lucia herself, that she had resolved not to go to the Cova De Iria for the July Apparition, and only appeared at the last minute. And then of course there was the August kidnapping of the children by Mayor Arturo Santos of Ourem, and the famous interrogation and imprisonment of the children, and their rescue by the town mob. What is most interesting, of course, is that the Mayor, a known Freemason and Revolutionary, would deposit the children at the Rectory at St Anthony's, and have tea and crumpets with Fr Ferreira while Ti and Olympia Marto, Little Jacinta's parents, were notified. Logically, the town mob assumed that somehow the parish priest was in on the plot, and wanted to lynch both the priest and the mayor. This Wolf does share their sentiments. The letter that Fr Ferreira would subsequently write does ring hollow.
The Priests were still fighting Our Lady of Fatima to the brutal, bitter end. Some minutes before the Miracle of the Sun, on October 13th, 1917, a priest who has never been identified shouted that "It is well past noon, and where is the miracle? This is all a fraud!" And with that he was urging the Seers to go home and the crowd to disperse. (That Priest apparently forgot that Our Lady is on God's time, not the Railroad time to which his watch was set. The Miracle occurred at High Noon in Fatima, when the sun was at its zenith along the ecliptic.) Meanwhile, after that epic demonstration of the Power of Heaven, the greatest public miracle since Moses had parted the waters of the Red Sea, the Church would continue to oppose Fatima. (The State would too, but their methods were increasingly unavailing. Some burros tied to trees were more than enough to make jackasses out of the local militia, and they were reduced to calling the locals "Country Clodhoppers".) Cardinal Belo, even after the Miracle of the Sun, forbade his priests to speak about the apparitions. This deafening silence stretched to the Vatican, where Pope Benedict XV would never mention the apparitions publicly for the seven more years of life that was left to him. His successor, Pius XI, would give the apparitions scant attention, limiting himself to quietly approving of the events to Portuguese pilgrims to Rome. He was much more interested, apparently, in ecumenical relations with the Orthodox at the expense of doctrine. and a flood of encyclical letters addressing the problems of the day.
But Our Lady quietly continued working in the background. On Dec 10th, 1925, came the Apparition at Ponte Vedra, where Our Lord Jesus Christ complained against the outrages against the Immaculate Heart. "Have compassion on the Heart of your most holy Mother, covered with thorns, with which ungrateful men pierce it at every moment, and there is no one to make an act of reparation to remove them." Here, the repertory act of the First Saturdays was introduced. Then, 42 months later, on June 13th, 1929, Our Lady said that "The Moment has come for the Holy Father, in union with all the Bishops of the World, to Consecrate Russia to My Immaculate Heart." Rather, for Pius XI, the moment had come to sign the Lateran Treaty, which completed the work of Pius VII, and formally recognized the Revolution, and meanwhile give the world the most scandal ridden institution of the last fifty years- The Institute For Religious Works. (Most know it by a more generic name: "The Vatican Bank".) A mere two years later, Our Lord would appear to St Sr Lucia, and complain: "They did not want to Heed My Requests... Like the Kings of France..." (Spoiler Alert!)
About a decade later, on the very night the Satanic Pederasts were finalizing the details for the Great Moloch Holocaust known to most as the "Second World War"- (Albert Pike wrote about it in his letter to Mazzini...)- on January 25th, 1938, a billion people saw a night with a very strange red light, almost as though an immense fire was burning on the horizon all around them. Around the world, firemen were called, and alarms rang out. But nobody could find the fire, let alone put it out. St Sr Lucia saw the "night lit by an unknown light" and knew the time had come for revelation. Not that that was going to be easy. Years before, the newly installed bishop of Fatima, José Alves Correia da Silva, had done everything possible to bury St Sr Lucia in obscurity. She had been sent far away and become a Doreathean Sister, Maria Dos Dolores, and forbidden to talk about Fatima to anybody, except with very special permission. She was also forbidden to return to the familiar places of her youth. But despite all obstacles, her memoirs were published, and prescient souls began to see the relation of Fatima to the Second World War.
And so, in spite of everything, Pope Pius XII began to be pressured to make the collegial consecration of Russia. On July 7th, 1952, Pope Pius XII consecrated Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary in an Apostolic Letter To the Russian People. Too little, of course, though not too late. (One can only imagine what would have happened if Pius XII would have performed the consecration at the onset of his pontificate. World War II could have been averted, Russia would have collapsed, and a Greater Germany would have been a balance to the Washington-London axis. Alas...) He would also consecrate the world to the Immaculate Heart. But meanwhile he would further the plans of the Satanic Pederasts. He certainly supported the New World Order brought to fruition in the wake of World War II. And he was doing everything possible to accommodate Holy Mother Church to it. And meanwhile, he had St Sr Lucia buried in a Carmelite Convent in Coimbra, forbidden to speak to anyone without the permission of the Vatican.
In spite of all this, on a cold dry day just after Christmas, in 1957, St Sr Lucia was able to get the word out, in a seminal conference with Father Augustine Fuentes, who would relay her message to the descendents of the Cristeros in Mexico. The Vatican vehemently denounced the affair, and the Portuguese episcopate insinuated that Fr Fuentes had fabricated the whole affair. Nevertheless, the truth prevailed. In a nutshell, St Sr Lucia insinuated 1) That All Hell would break loose after 1960, 2) That the Mass and Sacraments would disappear, 3) That no help would be forthcoming from either the Episcopate or the Religious Orders, 4) A large number of priests would lose the Faith, and 5) We are all in GRAVE DANGER of falling into Hell. Not long after the interview, which was the last time the world got to hear from the REAL St Sr Lucia, Pope Pius XII died and the world got Good Pope John, who in no time at all prepared to proclaim the Council dreamed of by Canon Roca and Dr Steiner.
Then, of course, all Hell Broke Loose. In October, 1962, while millions huddled in their bomb shelters expecting nuclear annihilation at any moment at the height of the Theatrical "Cuban Missile Crisis", (The only crisis was the utter stupidity being broadcast far and wide over the airwaves= Operation Mockingbird was in full swing...) the largest gathering of prelates in history was present at the Vatican for the convocation of the Great Council, the New Pentecost, the French Revolution in the Church (Cardinal Suenens), and the Counter-Syllabus (The Then Fr Ratzinger). In short order, the Rhine- scratch that, the Potomac- was flowing into the Tiber, as all the great schemas were discarded like yesterday's garbage and replaced by a revolutionary program devised by the German Bishops... scratch that... the Masonic Lodges. In short order, we Christians were told we must apologize for enslaving Europe, the Slave Trade, the Crusades, the Battle of Lepanto, the Fall of Rome, and, of course, the Nazi Holohoax. We were told we worship the same God along with Our Separated Brethren, the Muslims, the Jews, and even Flame Swallowing Snake Worshippers. (Thomas Merton would work out the details.) Oh, and of course that moldering Latin Liturgy needed to be diversified, equified, and inclusive.
After a thousand years, the Satanic Pederasts were ready for the Coming Out Party. In breathtaking fashion, one "reform" followed another, and it did not take a Rocket Scientist to discern the trend. As Beatlemania spread around the world, Liberal Catholicism followed in its train. From their perch high above, while Unicorns danced on Rainbows, Canon Roca, Odo Casel, and Dr Steiner smiled. The replacements of the Twelve Apostles, Teilhard de Chardin, Hans Balthasar, Henry Lubac, Ives Congar, Karl Rahner, and the gang were spreading the New Gospel of Luv. Pope Paul VI would travel to Fatima in 1967 for the 50th Anniversary Jubilee, and trot out a New Sr Lucia for a New World Order.
The Real St Sr Lucia, like the "Third Secret of Fatima", had been pitched "down a deep dark well". (Oh, don't worry, it's there somewhere, in that warehouse they were taking the Ark of the Covenant into in the First Indiana Jones Movie.)
Altar and Throne were both ready for a Novus Ordo Missae.
