The Fatima Visionaries<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

I can announce here on my blog that the full truth about the third secret of Fatima has finally been revealed.<\/p>\n

For those who are unfamiliar with the secrets of Fatima, in 1917 the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to three peasant children in Portugal. The first \u201csecret\u201d she revealed to them was a horrifying vision of hell. This was revealed on July \u00a013, 1917.<\/p>\n

Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the earth. Plunged in this fire were\u00a0demons<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0souls<\/a>\u00a0in human form, like transparent burning embers, all blackened or burnished\u00a0bronze<\/a>, floating about in the conflagration, now raised into the air by the flames that issued from within themselves together with great clouds of smoke, now falling back on every side like sparks in a huge fire, without weight or equilibrium, and amid shrieks and groans of pain and despair, which horrified us and made us tremble with fear. The demons could be distinguished by their terrifying and repulsive likeness to frightful and unknown animals, all black and transparent. This vision lasted but an instant. How can we ever be grateful enough to our kind heavenly Mother, who had already prepared us by promising, in the first Apparition, to take us to heaven. Otherwise, I think we would have died of fear and terror.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The second secret concerned the two world wars that ravaged Europe in the twentieth century:<\/p>\n

You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace. The war is going to end: but if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the Pontificate of Pope Pius XI. When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that he is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father. To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the\u00a0Consecration of Russia<\/a>\u00a0to my Immaculate Heart, and the\u00a0Communion<\/a>of\u00a0reparation<\/a>\u00a0on the\u00a0First Saturdays<\/a>. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she shall be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The third secret was the most controversial because the visionary, Sister Lucia, said it should be kept secret until 1960. It was finally released in the Jubilee Year 2000.<\/p>\n

After the two parts which I have already explained, at the left of Our Lady and a little above, we saw an Angel with a flaming sword in his left hand; flashing, it gave out flames that looked as though they would set the world on fire; but they died out in contact with the splendour that Our Lady radiated towards him from her right hand: pointing to the earth with his right hand, the Angel cried out in a loud voice: \u2018Penance, Penance, Penance!\u2019. And we saw in an immense light that is God: \u2018something similar to how people appear in a\u00a0mirror<\/a>\u00a0when they pass in front of it\u2019 a Bishop dressed in White \u2018we had the impression that it was the Holy Father\u2019. Other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious going up a steep mountain, at the top of which there was a big Cross of rough-hewn trunks as of a cork-tree with the bark; before reaching there the Holy Father passed through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step, afflicted with pain and sorrow, he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on his way; having reached the top of the mountain, on his knees at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired bullets and arrows at him, and in the same way there died one after another the other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious, and various lay people of different ranks and positions. Beneath the two arms of the Cross there were two Angels each with a crystal\u00a0aspersorium<\/a>\u00a0in his hand, in which they gathered up the blood of the Martyrs and with it sprinkled the souls that were making their way to God.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The third secret is said to be a prediction of the sufferings of the church during the twentieth century when an unprecedented number of priests and religious were tortured and martyred\u00a0for the faith\u2013culminating in the assassination attempt on Pope John Paul II on May 13, 1981.<\/p>\n

Despite its publication in 2000 some Catholics \u00a0have persistently said that the third secret of Fatima was not revealed, or at least it was not revealed completely. Conspiracy theorists have continued to quiz Vatican officials and accuse them of an official cover up.<\/p>\n

The most recent rumor was that someone named Professor Inigo Dollinger claimed that\u00a0\u00a0in a private conversation with (then cardinal) Ratzinger after the secret was published, that Ratzinger said the published secret was \u201cnot complete.\u201d\u00a0Continue Reading<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
