Fatima,
the Time of Noah

Fatima Most Catholics know the story well. Throughout the
night of October 12 and all during the morning of October 13, a cold, heavy
rain fell, saturating the ground and the 70,000 pilgrims who had come to see
the foretold miracle. Once the sun had reached its zenith, and after Our Lady
appeared to the children, the rain suddenly stopped, and the clouds parted
without even a breeze. At that moment, many witnesses described seeing a world
of colors around them, as if they were inside a rainbow. Then, the sun appeared
to fall to earth as if it was going to destroy the world, only to return to its
own position, leaving everyone, including the ground and their clothes,
perfectly dry. Eyewitness accounts of this give us an idea of what they saw:
“During those long moments of the solar prodigy, objects
around us turned all the colors of the rainbow. We saw ourselves blue, yellow,
red, etc. All the strange phenomena increased the fears of the people.” –
Father Ignacio Lorenco
“In the days when the Son of Man comes, all will be as it
was in the days of Noe; they ate, they drank, they married and were given in
marriage, until the day when Noe went into the ark, and the flood came and
destroyed them all. So it was, too, in the days of Lot; they ate, they drank,
they bought and sold, they planted and built; but on the day when Lot went out
of Sodom, a rain of fire and brimstone came from heaven and destroyed them all.
And so it will be, in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.” Luke 17:26-30
“When the Son of Man comes, all will be as it was in the
days of Noe; in those days before the flood, they went on eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage, until the time when Noe entered the ark, and
they were taken unawares, when the flood came and drowned them all; so it will
be at the coming of the Son of Man.” Matthew 24:37-39
The Jewish commentary on Genesis known as the Midrash says
that God sent the flood to destroy the world because perverse marriages (male
to male and man to beast) had been legalized.
“The generation of the Flood were not blotted out from the
world until they composed nuptial songs (until they wrote marriage deeds for
males and beasts — i.e. they fully legalized such practices) in honor of
pederasty and bestiality.” – Midrash, GENESIS (BERESHITH) [XXVI. 4-5] p. 213
“For I know the wickedness of mankind, how [they have
rejected my commandments and] they will not carry the yoke which I have placed
on them. But they will cast off my yoke, and they will accept a different yoke.
And they will sow worthless seed, not fearing God and not worshiping me, but
they began to worship vain gods, and they renounced my uniqueness.
“My dear daughter, listen well to what I have to say to you.
You will inform your superior. As I told you, if men do not repent and better
themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It
will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never seen
before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity,
the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The
survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The
only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My
Son. Each day recite the prayers of the Rosary. With the Rosary, pray for the
Pope, the bishops and priests.”
“The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church
in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against
bishops. The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their
confreres…churches and altars sacked; the Church will be full of those who
accept compromises and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls
to leave the service of the Lord.
“With courage, speak to your superior. He will know how to
encourage each one of you to pray and to accomplish works of reparation.”
Sodom
The book of Genesis tells us that 100 years transpired from
the time that God told Noah to build an Ark to the day of the Deluge. As the
100th anniversary of Fatima rapidly approaches, let us not be found outside the
Ark, but remain safely aboard the Ark of the Church. So,... let us commit to pray the Rosary daily for the salvation of souls,
reparation for sins, and for the restoration of All things in Christ.

In a more succinct way, the Miracle of Fatima can be
described like this: Intense rain, followed by a rainbow of sorts, the sun
falling to the earth as if to burn it up, only to have the sun return to its
proper place, leaving the witnesses and the ground perfectly dry. This sequence
should sound familiar. In the book of Genesis, we read that God sent a flood to
wipe out all mankind save for Noah and his family. Then came a rainbow, as a
covenant that He would never again destroy the world by a flood. But what of
the sun descending upon the earth as if to destroy it? In the 17th chapter of
Luke’s Gospel, Jesus explains to His disciples:
Jesus preaching |
It’s rather curious that Jesus would tie in the flood of
Noah with the destruction of Sodom. Even more curious is that He would mention
marriage. St. Matthew gives a similar account, and while some of the details
are different, he also mentions what Jesus said about marriage in relation to
the flood of Noah and the return of the Son of Man:
Deluge
On the face of it, it seems that Jesus is simply
saying that people will just be carrying on about their business as usual when
disaster strikes. But the connection of the destruction of the world by flood
to the destruction of Sodom by fire is a theme repeated by the Miracle at
Fatima, and again (as you will see) at Akita, Japan. Because of this theme, Our
Blessed Lord’s mention of “marrying and giving in marriage” seems to be more
euphemistic, and the understanding of the ancient Jews with regard to the Flood
of Noah may provide a clue.
Book of Enoch |
In addition to the Midrash is the apocryphal Book of Enoch.
The Book of Enoch is believed to have been composed sometime between the second
and first century BC, and was regarded as authentic by Clement of Alexandria,
Origen, Tertullian, and St. Augustine. While the text is not considered to have
been inspired by the Holy Spirit, it is worth noting that the Book of Enoch
also affirms the idea that the reason God sent a flood to wipe out the earth
for wide-spread practice of sodomy:
And all the
world will be reduced to confusion by iniquities and wicked- nesses and
[abominable] fornications that is, friend with friend in the anus, and every
other kind of wicked uncleanness which it is disgusting to report, and the
worship of (the) evil (one). And that is why I shall bring down the flood onto
the earth, and I shall destroy everything, and the earth itself will collapse
in great darkness.”
Homosexual Rome |
It should also be noted that Emperor Nero, largely regarded
by the Church Fathers as a prefigurement of the Anti-Christ, is the first ruler
of the Western World to have legitimized same-sex ‘marriages,’ participating in
at least two himself.
In light of this, it would appear that the cause of the
Flood may have been the legalization of perverse marriages. So when Our Lord
recalls “the days of Noah,” mentions “marriage and giving in marriage”, and
then also recalls the destruction of Sodom, it would appear that the
punishments for such crimes against nature are quite severe. It is also
interesting that the miracle of Fatima appears to recall the deluge with heavy
rains dissipated by a brilliant display of the colors of the rainbow, followed
by the sun threatening to burn up the world. But it doesn’t end there.
Akita
I
n 1973, Our Lady spoke to a deaf nun in Akita Japan.
On the anniversary of the Miracle of the Sun, October 13, 1973, Our Lady said:
Weeping Statue at Akita Japan |
Cardinal Raymond Burke was one of the principal authors and supporters of the book defending the Church's teachings on marriage that was allegedly blocked by Cardinal Baldisseri. |
St. Wolfgang and the devil |
“The demon will be especially implacable against souls
consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my
sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will be no longer pardon
for them”
Sodom and Gomorrah |
These are incredibly sobering words if we take them
in the context presented above. Again, our Lady recalls the deluge, and then
speaks of fire falling from the sky, which harkens to the destruction of Sodom.
If homosexual acts were the spiritual cause of both cataclysms, then the
recollection of them in regard to our time bears a striking significance. Even
more disturbing is what Our Lady said at Akita about bishops opposing bishops
and cardinals opposing cardinals. Can it be a coincidence that the upcoming
Synod on the Family, which has already opened the door to discussion on
“irregular” relationships and homosexuality, will be held in October, during
the 98th anniversary of the Miracle of the Sun? Can it be a coincidence that
the symbol that self-professed homosexuals have claimed for themselves,
recalling the great deluge, is the rainbow?
