Serious Times

I haven't shared anything personal from the Lord in a while, but what I received yesterday was of significant importance, so I felt obligated to share it.
In previous postings (on this site), I have mentioned from time to time, some of the visions and messages that I received from the Lord which were prophetic in nature, or that indicated the seriousness of the times that we are now living in.
In July of 2006, while I was in adoration before our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, the Lord showed me this vision (in the Communion Host).
I saw the Blessed Mother kneeling with her head bowed in prayer. Next to her were two arms holding a bowl, raised in the air. I then received another vision: it was a bearded man who was wearing a turban. I did not know who this was at the time. I asked the Lord about the vision of the bowl, "Lord, is this bowl a bowl of chastisement, which is to be poured out upon the world ?" Immediately, I received the words, "Bowl of God's wrath.'
Later that night while at mass, I suddenly remembered where I had heard of a similar message which was the message given to the visionary Julia Kim. (in the 1980's).The Lord spoke to her about a "cup of God's wrath" which was being filled up and about to overflow. The Lord said that this would happen if mankind did not repent, but that its intensity could be lessened by prayer and fasting.
This brings me up to yesterday (May 8, 2009), when I was again praying in front of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.
The Lord showed me the following vision (in the Communion Host).
I saw the face of Christ (with Christ wearing a crown of thorns). In front of Christ, I saw a woman (who was facing Christ), with a white veil and white dress kneeling in prayer. I could not see the face of this woman since her back was facing me, but I believe that it was probably the Blessed Mother. I saw this vision for a while, and then it momentarily was replaced by another vision. This vision I recognized right away since I had received it on two previous occasions. It was the face of a bearded man wearing a turban. I readily recognized this man as being the anti-Christ (from him being identified as so in previous visions).
This vision of the anti-Christ disappeared and the previous vision appeared (of Jesus and our Lady), and remained there until I left the adoration chapel.
I received no specific words regarding these visions, but my discernment of these is that it is our Lady's prayers to Christ which are momentarily preventing the anti-Christ from coming into full power.
Very few people realize the seriousness of the times that we are now living in (including many Christians).
All one has to do is pay attention to world events to see that the stage is now set for the anti-Christ to come into power with his one world government.

Later that same day, I did receive words referring to this vision:

"My Son has suffered enough."

Wow. That is pretty scary. About the man wearing a turban who is the anti-Christ. Do you this man wearing a turban was a Muslim man? Or do you think the turban simply indicted that he was from the Middle East or Southeast Asia? Or could it mean something else?

My feelings on this is that he is a Muslim.

Yeah I pretty much thought the same thing when you mentioned a man wearing a turban. I automatically thought of a man from Saudi Arabia or one of the Arabian countries where men were turbans and men from those countries (especially Saudi Arabia) are more often that not Muslims. Of course, there are some Arab Catholics and Christians.

EDIT: Ooops, I accidentally posted using my old name!

Good post....I was about to post something similar. I wanted to pray now I know our lady prayer is really important.

One sign that I see indicating that the return of the Lord is near, is the lack of faith even among believers. Last Sunday, at mass the priest mentioned in his sermon that 75% of Catholics don't attend church. In Europe I believe that the number is even higher.

Added to this is the recent news about one protestant denomination after the other allowing openly gay ministers preach from their pulpits.

On top of this, legalized abortion continues on without an end in sight.

It seems to me that the Lord is going to have to intervene somehow (perhaps by His second coming), to save us from our own self destruction.

This is basically the scenario from the Bible, for the end times discussed in the book of Revelation (Apocalypse) ....several things have not happened yet...
1. the temple will be rebuilt
2. daily Levitical worship will start
3. the gospel will be preached to all the world
4. the love of God will wax cold
5. many will be decieved, even the elect
6. the antichrist will appear
7. tribulation start in 2nd-3rd year
8. church will be raptured
9. Jesus and saints return for battle of Armegeddon
10 Jesus will rule for 1000 years
11. end of old heaven and old earth
12. eternity

Several things on your list are or have occurred.

"The gospel will be preached throughout the world"

"The love of God will wax cold"

"Many will be deceived, even the elect"

As far as the temple being rebuilt, I have read that they are planning to do this, but don't know how to do it because a Mosque is situated in the spot where the temple should be rebuilt.

I recently heard a man speaking (on a Catholic radio program), that the Jewish people (in Israel) by the thousands are accepting Christ as the Messiah. Some are becoming Christians, and others are remaining Jewish, but accepting Christ as the Messiah.

This, I believe is a sign of the Lord's return.
