Even the most lethargic of Christians know something is afoot. Lately  stories in Life  Time and Newsweek have covered the flood of heavenly phenomena: visions of The Blessed Mother  heavenly messages and warnings  miraculous healings  weeping statues and icons. There is no longer any excuse for someone to plead ignorance. Something is definitely up. Precisely \"what\" is up is the subject of this book. If the visionaries in this book prove correct  it is the most amazing and important subject ever written about. This book does what few books on Marian apparitions have done. It provides a comprehensive overview of the phenomena - from Our Ladys appearances in Guadeloupe  Mexico  in 1531  to her flood of visits around the world today. The book also analyzes the many apparitions  searching for a common theme to the messages. It finds one. It is a theme enunciated by such diverse and unlikely persons as housewives in Ireland and Arizona; teenagers and young people in Ecuador  Italy  Medjugorje  and Garabandal; a converted pagan in Africa; a political prisoner in Ukraine; a factory foreman in Canada; and a disabled laborer in New Jersey. Through visionaries separated from each other by thousands of miles  scores of different languages  and in some cases hundreds of years  the Blessed Mother speaks with one voice. The world  she warns  increasingly has given itself to sin and debauchery. The time of Gods Justice is at hand. Signs and wonders increasing in power and frequency will be given to us  emphasizing the urgency of the need for man to return to God. These are acts of Gods ultimate mercy. These calls from God will culminate in what seers call the Warning  a revelation to man that will reveal the state of every single soul. One of Satans greatest weapons is ignorance. The Warning will allow one to actually understand how God sees the state of his or her soul. Following the Warning will be what visionaries call the Great Miracle - an event that will somehow manifest the power of God more publicly and visibly than ever before. Both of these events will allow mankind to return to God. Following these events will be the final act of Gods Justice. Those who refuse to convert will be dealt with by the only means left - a tremendous Chastisement that will purify the earth. The messages are so powerful  so extravagant in their promise and warning  that one might be inclined to dismiss them as fantasy or science fiction. Indeed  serious Catholics must be very cautious and prayerfully discerning when investigating reports of such phenomena. It is true that no Catholic need commit himself to any apparition or message. In fact  the authors emphasize that even with \"church approved\" apparitions  those who choose to believe in them do so only with human faith. The messages are not new. They call us back to the essential message of the gospel: prayer  fasting  conversion  sacrifice  penance  joyful service to our neighbor and reverent worship of God. For those of us who have tarried at Gods call  those who have dallied in the world and put off conversion  the messages and events compiled in this book will serve as a wake-up call. The world is a dangerous place. Time is short  and the stakes are high. Through and unprecedented outpouring of graces and apparitions  God is calling us back to Himself  shouting at us to listen  humbling Himself to tug on our sleeves - desperately trying to get our attention before the Thunder of His Justice strikes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67598666235957,"sku":"ByrdShop_096343070X","price":31.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780963430700.jpg?v=1790928303","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-thunder-of-justice-the-warning-the-miracle-the-chastisement-the-era-of-peace-9780963430700","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
