Cardinal
Oddi on the REAL Third Secret of Fatima: "The Blessed Virgin was alerting us
against the apostasy in the Church"...
"Do not
accept the fallacy that any man upon earth and mankind are gods. There
is but one God. And no man shall set himself above his Master. O
My children, cannot you recognize the signs of your times? The
great apostasy is upon you!" - Our Lady, December 7, 1976
This following article is taken from the article first published on March
17, 1990, in Il Sabato magazine in Rome, Italy.
By now everyone acknowledges that Cardinal Silvio Oddi has
one virtue that is extremely rare in the present-day ecclesiastical environment:
the frankness and freedom with which he states his views. The interview which
follows is one more proof of this. It has for its theme one of the enigmas that
during this century has most moved the collective religious imagination: the
Third Secret of Fatima. It is a matter which took on contemporary relevance
again last month, following the publication in 30 DAYS of a letter from Sister
Lucia, one of the three visionaries to whom the Mother of God appeared on May
13, 1917. Referring to the upheavals in eastern Europe, the Portuguese nun
wrote: "I believe it is an action of God in the world from the danger of an
atomic war that could destroy it." Many have seen in these words the
confirmation that the Third Secret has something to do with the current
developments in the USSR, as if the Virgin Mary had prophesied and mysteriously
guided Gorbachev's plan of perestroika. This view has ended in attributing to
these political events the miraculous character of a spiritual and religious
rebirth.
Are you also of this opinion?
CARDINAL SILVIO ODDI: No, on the contrary, I remain
very skeptical. I believe I knew John XXIII quite well, since I spent a number
of years at his side when he was at the nunciature in Paris. If the Secret had
concerned realities consoling for the Church like the conversion of Russia or
the religious rebirth of eastern Europe. I believe that he would have brought
pressure to bear to make the Secret public.
By temperament he did not hesitate to communicate joyful
things (it has been revealed that Cardinal Roncalli in a number of letters to
friends practically announced his election to the papacy). But when I asked him
during an audience why in 1960, when the obligation to keep the Secret secret
had come to an end, he had not made public the last part of the message of
Fatima, he responded with a weary sigh. He then said: "Don't bring that subject
up with me, please ..."
Did you ever speak with Sister Lucia?
CARDINAL ODDI: Yes, in 1985. I had gone to Portugal
to celebrate solemnly the anniversary of the apparitions, and I did not resist
the desire to exchange a few words with her. Obviously I did not ask her to
reveal the Secret to me but I asked her if she was aware of the reason why the
Church had decided not to make it public.
And Sister Lucia, what did she say?
CARDINAL ODDI: She said that in May 1982 she had
spoken about it with John Paul II, who had made a pilgrimage to Fatima to render
thanks to Our Lady a year after the attempted assassination in St. Peter's
Square. Together they had decided that it was more opportune not to reveal the
Secret. For fear, she explained to me, that it might be "misinterpreted." The
same explanation, I am told, was given by the Holy Father during his visit to
Germany. This attitude of the Church reinforced in me a theory that I had had
for a number of years ...
And what is that?
CARDINAL ODDI: What happened in 1960 that might
have been seen in connection with the Secret of Fatima? The most important event
is without a doubt the launching of the preparatory phase of the Second Vatican
Council. Therefore I would not be surprised if the Secret had something to do
with the convocation of Vatican II...
Why do you say that?
CARDINAL ODDI: From the attitude Pope John showed
during our conversation, I deduced - but it is only an hypothesis - that the
Secret might contain a part that could have a rather unpleasant ring to it. John
XXIII had convened the Council with the precise intention of directing the
forces of the Church toward the solution of the problems that concern all of
humanity, beginning from within. That is, he intended the work to begin with the
evangelical perfection pursued by consecrated persons ... But we all know that,
despite the great merits of the Council, many sad things have also taken place.
These sad things are not due to the Council, but they took place in conjunction
with the Council. I am thinking, for example, of the number of priests who have
abandoned the priesthood: it is said that there have been 80,000. But one only
has to recall the anguish with which the Holy Father, Paul VI, in 1968 cried out
against the "autodemolition" taking place in the Church ... Or his dramatic
homily on June 29, 1972: "We believed that after the Council would come a day of
sunshine in the history of the Church. But instead there has come a day of
clouds and storms, and of darkness ... And how did this come about? We will
confide to you the thought that may be, we ourselves admit in free discussion,
that may be unfounded, and that is that there has been a power, an adversary
power. Let us call him by his name: the devil." And again: "It is as if from
some mysterious crack, no, it is not mysterious, from some crack the smoke of
satan has entered the temple of God."
And what is your assessment of all this?
CARDINAL ODDI: This: that I would not be surprised
if the Third Secret alluded to dark times for the Church: grave confusions and
troubling apostasies within Catholicism itself ... If we consider the grave
crisis we have lived through since the Council, the signs that this prophecy has
been fulfilled do not seem to be lacking ...
But there are some who say that the Pope truly does see
a connection between the mystery of Fatima and the changes occurring in Russia...
CARDINAL ODDI: We know that the question has been
put, in private, to John Paul II. In one case, he limited himself to a smile; in
the other he gave an answer that does not permit one to draw a clear conclusion.
"My child, they converse of the secret that I gave at Fatima. It is a simple
explanation. It could not be fully revealed because of the drastic nature of My
message. How I warned and warned that satan would enter into the highest realms
of the hierarchy in Rome. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter
into My Son's Church."- Our Lady
of the Roses, May 13, 1978
"I gave Lucy the
Revelation as a temporary secret—as I revealed [the Third Secret] to you on
two occasions. Make a concerted effort to bring its entirety to Our children
on earth. The hierarchy have not listened to My counsel—thirty-two years
lost in indecision and fear of exposure. The Faith is shattered for many."-
Our Lady of the Roses, April 29, 1992
Our Lady of
the Roses awesome Bayside Prophecies...https://www.tldm.org/../Bayside/ These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica
Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
THE GREAT APOSTASY
"Do not accept the fallacy that any man upon earth and mankind are gods. There
is but one God. And no man shall set himself above his Master. O My children,
cannot you recognize the signs of your times? The great apostasy is upon you!" -
Our Lady, December 7, 1976
USING RANK TO DESTROY
"Those who have the highest places in My Son's Church are now using their rank
to destroy the truth. You cannot build on the carnal nature of mankind, the
fallen nature of mankind.
"You must now, My children, read the direction given you by Saint John. He
was given the prophecy of your times. You are in those days, My children, the
days of apostasy." - Our Lady, October 6, 1975
THE SWORD
"Mankind shall feel a sword upon his world. The Eternal Father has endured your
apostasy, your arrogance, your heresy much too long! As an errant and ungrateful
generation given to sin and abominations of the flesh, you shall be forced to
your knees by trial." - St. Michael, July 15, 1975
SISTER LUCY
"I wish at this time, My children, to repeat again the need to write, to speak,
to meet with the Holy Father in Rome, and plead with him to have Lucy come
forward and tell the Third Secret word for word, as I give to you each evening
on My appearances upon the grounds of Bayside, and Flushing Meadows." - Our
Lady, June 18, 1986
SCORNED, DISCARDED, HIDDEN "Many years have gone by, My children, since I tried to warn you at Fatima.
My message was scorned then by many, discarded and hidden from the world, but My
message now cannot be discarded or kept hidden, for you have reached now a point
in your life, My children, your lifetime upon your earth, when your days are now
being counted." - Our Lady, February 10, 1977
FATIMA "My child, how many warnings have I sent upon the world, and yet they go
unheeded.
"I wish that you make known, or refresh the memory of My children with My
visit to the land of Fatima." - Our Lady, April 13, 1974
THIRD SECRET
"My child, they converse of the secret that I gave at Fatima. It is a simple
explanation. It could not be fully revealed because of the drastic nature of My
message. How I warned and warned that satan would enter into the highest realms
of the hierarchy in Rome. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter
into My Son's Church." - Our Lady, May 13, 1978
"YOU DID NOT LISTEN"
"My Mother came to you at Fatima warning that unless man stopped his path to
perdition, Russia would spread her errors throughout your world causing misery,
sufferings, and death and enslavement. My children, you did not listen and act
upon Her counsel then, just as many now do not listen and act upon Her counsel.
It is a part of human nature to exercise too free a will to reject. And this, I
say, falls also onto My pastors who are scattering My sheep in My House." - Our
Lady, May 27, 1978
CAST ASIDE
"My warnings at Fatima were cast aside as they are being cast aside now, My
children. It is a failing of human nature, My child, that that which does not
give pleasure to the carnal nature of man is not accepted. Man shall blind
himself to the truth, as he does not wish to face the truth. And those who seek
to bring him the truth are cast aside and do much penance, My child." - Our
Lady, September 13, 1975
THE FIGHT FOR POWER
HAS BEGUN "The forces of evil are gathering. 666 now controls all the world, and sad to
say, My children, 666 has entered upon Rome, and the fight for power has begun.
Pray for your Vicar. Pray for all men of sin, and above all, My children, pray
for your children, for many parents shall shed tears of great remorse—too
late!" - Jesus, September 28, 1976
IN THE YEAR 1972
"Satan, Lucifer in human form, entered into Rome in the year 1972. He cut off
the rule, the role of the Holy Father, Pope Paul VI. Lucifer has controlled Rome
and continues this control now.
"And I tell you now, My children, unless you pray and make My counsel known
to all of the ruling fathers of the Eternal City of Rome, My Son's Church, His
House, will be forced into the catacombs. A great struggle lies ahead for
mankind. The eventual outcome is for good of all, for this trial in My Son's
Church will be a true proving ground for all the faithful. Many latter-day
saints shall rise out of the tribulation." - Our Lady, September 7, 1978
HIGHEST REALMS OF
THE HIERARCHY "My
child, they converse of the secret that I gave at Fatima. It is a simple
explanation. It could not be fully revealed because of the drastic nature of My
message. How I warned and warned that satan would enter into the highest realms
of the hierarchy in Rome. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter
into My Son's Church." - Our Lady, May 13, 1978
