#197 - Wars are a Punishment for Man's Sins

"Wars are a punishment from God for sin." – Our Lady of Fatima

A GREAT CALAMITY
"My children, the United States of America shall suffer a great calamity that will claim many lives. My heart is torn because I know now that many will not be saved.
"I have cautioned, I have directed, I have appealed to all mankind to turn back from the road that is leading to a world destruction. While your leaders throughout your world are crying for peace and security, they prepare for war. False faces and fronts do they present in the news medias as they prepare for war. O My children, wars are a punishment for man's sins.” – Our Lady, July 14, 1979

A GREAT WORLD CONFLICT
"Wars are a punishment for man's sin. Satan promotes these wars by using the weakness of man. As long as man idolizes and searches for the temporal things of this world, earth, he will go farther from the laws set forth by his God. As long as man turns from the laws of his God, he will be engaged in conflict of war. Before the coming of My Son and the armies of Heaven, there will be a great world conflict. Pray that your loved ones do not become involved.” – Our Lady, November 1, 1972

SYRIA HOLDS THE KEY
"Wars are a punishment for man's sins. Syria holds the key to peace at this time. However, I place in front of you, My children, a graphic picture for you to understand. It will be a parable for some, and some will turn away not willing to hear what Heaven has to say in these desperate times."
Veronica - Our Lady is pointing up with Her finger, like this, to Her right side, and high above Her the sky is opening up--all the clouds are floating away and the sky is opening up, and I see a map of the Mideast. And then Our Lady is pointing up farther and that's another map of China and Russia. Our Lady is turning back now; She was looking upward also.
Our Lady - "My child and My children, there are scoffers who will say there shall not be a Third World War. They do not know and cannot conceive of the plan of the Eternal Father. Be it known now that the Father has great heart for all His children, but when the sin reaches a peak only known to the Father, the amount of sin among mankind, then the Father will take action. He will allow you to go upon your reprobate way until there will be few souls to save upon earth, for the others will have died in battle and also at the hands of a corrupt generation of the young.” – Our Lady, May 28, 1983

MAN SUBMITS HIS WILL TO SATAN
"Your earth will be cleansed by a baptism of fire. In this way We shall separate the sheep from the goats. Wars are a punishment for man's sins. They will never end as long as man submits his will to satan.” – Our Lady, August 14, 1972

A GREAT WAR SOON UPON YOU
"Yes, my child, man has sown the seeds for his destruction. Wars are a punishment for man's sins.
     "The Eternal Father has waited, with His merciful heart extended to an errant generation, to no avail. Hearts have been hardened, ears are closed to the pleas from Heaven. The sheep shall be separated from the goats.
     "We send from the Eternal Kingdom of the Lord high God in Heaven a warning to mankind. A great War will be soon upon you, claiming many lives throughout your earth. You will prepare yourselves and the souls of those you love.
     "Your country has fallen to satan. Many countries throughout your world have given themselves to satan. The leaders in your country need many prayers.” – St. Michael, June 18, 1975

THIRD WORLD WAR
"The Third World War shall start soon, My child, and claim many lives. Many countries shall disappear from the surface of your earth. Wars are a punishment for man's sins, My child.” – Our Lady, April 5, 1975

ROME SHALL BE BESIEGED
"We have appealed to Our high pastors to gather the sheep. The city of Rome shall be besieged, because wars are a punishment for man's sins." – Our Lady, November 20, 1975

CONTEMPLATE THE FULL MESSAGE
"Contemplate, My children, upon the full message given to you through My Mother. She has been sent to you as a Mediatrix between God and man. If you reject Her counsel, you will be lost. She has promised to gather you all under Her mantle of protection and guidance. My Mother shall be with you and among you until I arrive after the great Chastisement.
     "I will come soon, because if I do not, there will be no flesh left upon your earth. Your countrymen and the leaders of your world have now, in their greed and avarice, made instruments of destruction--satan-inspired destruction of the human body! The value for life, the human life, is gone. Death shall be rampant--murders and abominations, all because man has given himself to a life of sin. Wars are a punishment for man's sins.
     "What can I tell you, My children? Shall I cover you with hope and optimism and delude you in the face of reality? I give you hope over the veil. What can I promise you upon your earth? Mankind himself now holds the balance for his own destruction.
     "The Eternal Father does not send this destruction upon you, but you will provide this yourselves.” – Jesus, December 6, 1975

SIN A WAY OF LIFE
"My children, I tell you now as your Mother that My tears fall upon you, for you do not know what you are doing. You are bringing upon you a great punishment.
"Are you so blind that you do not recognize the acceleration of sin among you? Murders abound, thievery, all manner of carnage, destruction of young souls, abortion, homosexuality, condemned from the beginning of time by the Eternal Father. Yet sin has become a way of life. Sin is condoned now, even unto the highest judges of your land and your lands throughout the world. As you have sown so shall you reap. Sin is death, not only of the spirit, but of the body. Wars are a punishment for man's sin, his greed, his avarice.” – Our Lady, August 14, 1981

MANY LIVES SHALL BE LOST
"Wars are a punishment for man's sins. My children, My heart is torn. I stand with you observing your road, the path you are traveling. Many lives shall be lost in the great War.
"The forces of evil are gathering about the city of Jerusalem. I walked there, My children. My home will be destroyed. There shall be much blood shed upon My home.” – Our Lady, June 24, 1976

GREAT DISCORD, STRUGGLE AND TRIAL
"I repeat: wars are a punishment for man's sins. And the wages of sin is death. I look upon you, man of earth, and find that many of you are already dead. You are dead souls in a living body. You have all but a short time to rekindle your spirit with the light. You cannot bargain your soul, for you will discard the light. You cannot sell your soul to satan for gain in your few years of pilgrimage upon your earth. You shall not sell your soul to get to the head.
"Pastors in My House, I look upon you and find you wanting. I do not have to single you out, each and every one, and divide you now on your merit. You are already dividing yourselves into two camps. There will be great discord and struggle and trial within My House, and there will be great discord, struggle, and trial among the human race.” – Jesus, December 24, 1976

DANGER AHEAD FOR INVASION
"I have come this evening, My children and My child, specifically to warn you of the vast danger that the United States of America and Canada are approaching. The enemies now are gathered from within. I say also, My children, that this also will caution those who live near the waters of the great seas. There is danger ahead for invasion. O My children, pray--pray a constant vigilance of prayer. Wars are a punishment for man's sin." – Our Lady, June 18, 1983

“IF YOU DO NOT LISTEN…”
"My Son is much grieved by the manner in which His Sacrifice is conducted within the churches of the world. Pastors! Shepherds of Our flock, have you not the courage to stand up for the light? Do you fear mankind? No man shall save you from your eternal reward if you receive the recompense of your abominations! You shall be cast into the abyss, counted among the least. You have been given a divine vocation. You scandalize those who have been entrusted to you! Awaken now from your blindness! Bishops, the salt--what have you done to your vocation? You have brought scandal, destruction of souls!
"I beg, as your Mother, for you to listen to My warnings. My urgent plea is of major concern to your world now. For if you do not listen to Me now, you will set fast into a major World War. Wars are a punishment for man's sins.” – Our Lady, March 18, 1975

AMERICA SHALL BE CHASTISED
"Already the forces of evil have gathered; and your country, the United States, which has now proceeded into spiritual darkness, shall suffer a great crisis. The time for being optimistic has passed by. Your country, the United States of America, shall be chastised. My heart is bereaved by the knowledge of the loss of great life that will come about in this minor chastisement. Wars are a punishment for man's sins.” – Our Lady, November 20, 1979

“MAKE IT KNOWN”
"Make it known, My child and My children, to all mankind that all wars are a punishment for man's sins.
"Each and every man, woman, and child upon earth has now the hour, the day, and the month counted to leave the earth. Prepare your passage, My children, for the time is growing short for many. You, My child, will have to defend the Faith, neither caring for the opinion of mankind, nor the objections or consolation of any man or friend upon earth. The Mission from Heaven will always be first, and the Faith as given you through the countless years of earth's time must be not watered down nor changed to meet the needs of your so-called modern age of scientific advancement.” – Our Lady, September 7, 1979

THE APOCALYPSE
"Wars are a punishment for man's sin. A great War shall remove many from the world. Woe, woe, woe, My children, to the inhabitants of the earth!
"You will read the warnings and the message in the Book of life, known as the latter days of the Apocalypse. Read it, study it well, and learn by it. The course of mankind is traveling fast to the conclusion of the book of the Apocalypse.” – Our Lady, November 20, 1974

HUMAN NATURE
"Many minor warnings, My child, have been given to mankind, but they go by unnoticed. In your human nature, many shall not listen until it is too late. Why must you receive the sword before you will listen? Wars are a punishment for man's sins!” – Our Lady, June 12, 1976

BRINK OF GREAT DESTRUCTION
"I ask those who can now--are enabled to hear My voice, I plead with you, as your Mother, to listen to Me and follow this direction, or you will receive a great chastisement. You must now go down upon your knees and make atonement, sacrifice and do penance for your country, for your nation, and for the countries of the world. You are upon now the brink of great destruction. That is why, My child, I took you to the corner, the edge of the chasm, and showed you.
"You understand, My child and My children, that wars are a punishment for man's sins.” – Our Lady, June 13, 1981

PEAK OF INIQUITY
"How long, you ask, My child, shall it be? This decision lies only in the hearts of mankind. When the abominations have reached a peak of great iniquity, know then that the end is at hand.
"Death, famine, destruction, seeds of evil flourishing to the extent that you will fear that mass insanity has set upon your world. Sin, My children, is insanity. Wars are a punishment for your sins! Awaken! Take the darkness from your hearts! Make atonement for yourselves, for no man can say he has not offended his God!” – Jesus, December 28, 1974

HEARTBREAK OF WAR
"My child, no words of mine or any human can explain to you the terrors and the heartbreak of war. Wars are a punishment for man's sins. Wars will always be among mankind as he continues to offend his God.” – Our Lady, March 18, 1977

GREAT CATASTROPHE UPON U.S.
"Pray for your government rulers. Pray, My children, that the Eternal Father will be more merciful and allow you time before a great catastrophe falls upon your nation, the United States.
"Remember, My children, always, that wars are a punishment for man's sins!” – Our Lady, August 14, 1979

THE MORALS
"My child and My children, you understand it is a known fact that when the morals of a country fall, that country will be destroyed in one way or another. Wars are always a punishment for man's sins." - Our Lady, June 18, 1992

WORLD WAR III
Veronica - . . . Our Lady now is looking down sadly. And I see She's pointing now to what looks like a map. Oh, my!
Now as I am watching—it's a map of... oh, I can see Jerusalem, and Egypt, Arabia, French Morocco, Africa. Oh, my goodness! There seems to be a very dense darkness now settling upon those countries. Oh, my!
And Our Lady is saying:
Our Lady - "The start of the Third World War, My child." - March 29, 1975

WORLD ENGULFED
"Wars are a punishment for sins, and the wars will accelerate, until all of the world is engulfed in one fire. Only My Son can ask the Father for a reprieve from what is coming upon you.” – Our Lady, September 7, 1985

NO PEACE UNLESS...
"The United States of America is fast approaching on the start of the Third World War. My children, your newspapers and your medias give no account of these secret missions. There are men going from the State's Department back and forth, hinder and yon looking for peace, peace, where there is no peace, and peace where there shall be no peace unless they follow the directions of the Eternal Father and the messages given from Heaven in the past years--not alone on these grounds, My children, of Bayside and Flushing Meadows, but also to various seers, young and old, about the world. The world is crying, peace, peace, and there will be no peace unless the world will recognize My warnings of caution from years ago in earth's time, and they do something about it.
"I have promised you peace, My children, if you will go forth with your Rosary in one hand and the brown Scapular about your neck. How many have cast aside their armor because they fear or they are afraid of the mockery of those who have already hardened their hearts to the truth." - Our Lady, July 1, 1985

CONSECRATE RUSSIA
"For peace, My child . . . there is much asked for peace upon earth. I must tell you this: There will be no peace, My children, until what has happened in the past with My visit to Fatima is consummated. Now this has to be done, My children: I repeat this anew, as I have repeated it, as I have gone hinder and yon across the earth to try to enlighten My children as to the road to true peace--you must now cast aside, abrogate the union of Rome with Russia. For Russia must be consecrated to My Immaculate Heart for a true peace." - Our Lady, June 6, 1987
