Our Lady in Akita (Japan): “Those who trust in me will be saved” (Beware of the coming fire)
Our Lady of Akita (Japan)
Dear Father Livio, I am sending you some of the messages received from Sister Agnese in Akita (Japan), a revelation approved by the Church. When I read the message I understood even more what you are telling us in recent times about the relationship between Fatima and Medjugorje. In fact, the date of the following message coincides with the last of the Fatima apparitions.
Peace and love
Pasquale from Naples
Here is the message of Our Lady of 13 October 1973
(third and final appearance)
“My dear daughter, listen carefully to what I have to say to you. You will inform your superior.”
After a moment of silence Our Lady continues saying:
“As I told you, if men do not repent and improve themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all mankind. It will be a punishment greater than the Flood, such as has never been seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and wipe out a large part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, without sparing either priests or faithful. The survivors will find themselves so distressed that they will envy the dead. The only weapons you will have left are the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son. Recite the prayers of the Rosary every day. With the Rosary pray for the Pope, the bishops and the priests.
The work of the devil will also insinuate itself into the Church in such a way that we will see cardinals opposing other cardinals, bishops against bishops. The priests who venerate me will be despised and hindered by their brothers…churches and altars looted; the Church will be full of those who accept compromises and the Devil will push many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord. The devil will be implacable especially 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 severity, there will be no forgiveness for them.
Courageously speak to your superior. He will know how to encourage each of you to pray and carry out your task of repair. It is Bishop Ito, who directs your community.”
And after smiling he adds:
“Do you still have something to ask? Today will be the last time I will speak to you in speakerphone. From this moment on you will obey the one sent to you and your superior.
Pray the prayers of the Rosary a lot. Only I can still save you from the approaching calamities. Those who trust in me will be saved.”
In 1988 the then cardinal prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, Joseph Ratzinger, expressed the definitive judgment on the matter, declaring that it was reliable and worthy of the Faith.
