Joseph the Carpenter by Georges de la Tour

"Get your spiritual house in order and buckle your seat belts. Because this particular prophecy and speculation aside, one thing is certain: God will not much longer tolerate this. 

He will not much longer tolerate His faithful being locked out of Churches, out of the Mass, out of the Sacraments, due to Covid or being “unvaccinated.”

He is not much longer going to tolerate children being indoctrinated with the LGBT agenda – not just by fringe groups, but by the most temporally powerful entities on earth. 

He is not much longer going to tolerate the unborn being slaughtered, and the “Catholic” president of the world’s most powerful country vociferously advocating for this genocide."

Professor Daniel O'Connor, in his previous post, published for your discernment the last alleged prophetic message of Fr. Michel Rodrigue - a message which indicates that St. Joseph is the Restrainer, or “Katechon,” spoken of in Scripture (2 Thessalonians), who holds back the power of the Antichrist, and whose being “taken away” will allow the Antichrist to emerge. 

It's a message which moreover proposes that this removal will coincide with the conclusion of the Year of St. Joseph on December 8th, 2021 – a conclusion which will itself open the door for the commencement of the Great Chastisements, but which, more importantly, “begins the beginning” of the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, The Era of Peace.

1) What I present here is not a prediction or a prophecy, but only a speculative exploration of a prophetic possibility. I only write it to further inflame your zeal for engaging in the mission on account of the potentially very limited time remaining for its execution, and I certainly have no timetabled prediction or knowledge of the future to give you on my own authority.

All I am certain of, in that regard, is that Chastisements are coming “soon” and that the Era of Peace will follow. 2) For new readers, I should add that I’m well aware of the controversy surrounding Fr. Michel Rodrigue. I’m convinced neither that his messages are authentic nor that they are inauthentic; I just think they are worth considering and sharing. 

I addressed the most popular criticism of Fr. Michel here, and Countdown to the Kingdom addressed others here and elsewhere. If Fr. Michel’s messages are ever formally condemned (that is, if a canonical “constat de non supernaturalitate” is issued), then I will immediately obey, and no longer publish any of them. The critics who denounce me as disobedient are just playing stupid. They know exactly what a formal condemnation is, and they know one hasn’t been issued in Fr. Michel’s case. 

"From now on the Holy Spirit will blow ever more strongly upon my Church and on His children. Remember - have love for the Lord. Dearly beloved children, you are my little remnant --- I will soon anticipate the return of  my Son ..." Message of Our Lady to Gisella Cardia December 8 2020.

Professor O'Connor describes how, on the day of the surprise Apostolic Letter from Pope Francis declaring the Year of St Joseph, he concluded the great feast of the Immaculate Conception at St Joseph's Church. "We prayed the original full version of the St Michael the Archangel prayer before Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament and as the priest lifted high the Monstrance during the closing Benediction I felt a great outpouring of Eucharistic grace.

I am now feeling it was an outpouring of grace upon the whole world. ... I was contacted by two people in different parts of the world who for the first time in their lives had just received messages from Heaven of their own. It seems the Holy Spirit is up to something: the beginning of the Year of St Joseph was not only spiritually significant but also propetically significant."

After that I received an outpouring of letters from people who confirmed precisely the same thing: people sharing that they, too, had felt a new outpouring of grace into their souls that very day; and I even heard from more people (beyond the two mentioned above) who began receiving Heavenly messages that day! 

It now makes perfect sense for me to interpret that in light of this Year of St. Joseph entailing the final extension in the Time of Mercy; the time of the Restrainer  or “Katechon” of 2 Thessalonians:– Joseph – preventing the Antichrist from arising. 

 

St. Joseph is appearing to me more and more as an ideal candidate for a Katechon - or the Katechon.

He is the Patron of the Universal Church! He is the Terror of Demons! He is the Spouse of Mary; herself the Spouse of the Holy Spirit! He is, as Jesus tells Luisa Piccarreta, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of the Divine Will.

 It was precisely St. Joseph who protected Jesus and Mary from the Antichrists of their day (Herod, etc.). It was precisely St. Joseph who, during the years of Jesus’ hidden life, would never allow any harm to touch his Divine foster son. Why, therefore, would it be otherwise for the Church in general?

In the life of Our Lord Himself, St. Joseph had to be removed from the picture before Christ’s own Passion could take place. The Passion of the Christ, of course, was Willed by God, therefore it was necessary, but it could not have happened if Jesus’ own foster-father was in the picture.

I remember a very holy priest sharing with me that dear St. Joseph simply wouldn’t have let it happen – he would have done whatever it took to protect his son. Joseph was so unbelievably holy that God would have been “forced,” as it were, to bless his efforts. Joseph would have made Samson’s single-handed slaying of 1,000 soldiers look like child’s play, and no legion of Roman or Jewish militants would have been able to lay a hand on the Lord.

So too, therefore, in the life of the Church – which, we know, must follow the life of Christ – St. Joseph’s protection has to be “removed” in a similar sense. (I want to reiterate what I said in my last post: in the most important sense, St. Joseph will never be “removed;” he’ll always be there for us. I am only here considering the possibility that his special protection during the year dedicated to him will be removed). 

It is almost surprising that no potential Antichrist candidates have entered the world scene during these 10 months of 2021, considering how much global circumstances have, this whole time, practically begged for his unveiling. But his inability to do so makes perfect sense if, indeed, St. Joseph is the, or a, Katechon, preventing the Antichrist’s reign during the Holy Year dedicated to his honor.

 

The ecclesial oddities surrounding the proclamation of the Year of St. Joseph also subtly testify to its potential prophetic significance. 

I needn’t repeat here the details of how the Vatican  has, for the most part it seems, committed blunder after blunder recently. But this exception to that trend – this wonderful proclamation of the Year of St. Joseph –  seems to have been more or less directly from Heaven, only employing the machinery of the Vatican as minimally as possible in order to render it valid. As Fr. Raymond de Souza, writing for the National Catholic Register, pointed out: 

 

If indeed it is true that the Restrainer will be lifted on December 8th, 2021 (again, pure speculation here, no predictions/assertions/prophecies from me!), here are some things we might just see shortly thereafter (along with, perhaps, increasing preparations/rumblings of the same in the weeks before):

(The links provided are to the webcasts Mark Mallett and I did on each corresponding phase in the Chastisements)

• Financial and economic collapse, leading to social collapse. 
• Natural disasters the likes of which the world has never seen – including many that will be impossible to blame on so-called “climate change” (e.g. solar flares, asteroids, volcanoes, earthquakes, tsunamis)
• The Warning
• Suppression of the Mass and Sacraments, persecution of the Faithful

As indeed the Traditional Latin Mass has already been suppressed by bishops who side with the world and Jorge Mario Bergoglio, for example Cardinal John Dew in the Archdiocese of Wellington.  

• Extreme turmoil in the Vatican. Martyrdom of Francis and Benedict, and the installation of an antipope who may be the false prophet himself. 

Hmmm. Professor O'Connor might be a little behind the times on this one.  

• Global violent conflict of a “World War 3” caliber that enables the entrance of a One World ruler – who will wind up being the Antichrist
• The institution of a one world digital currency, which will be tied to some sort of mandatory chip, itself required for any financial transaction. Persecution of whoever will not take this chip – for, you guessed it, it will be the Mark of the Beast, and we must prefer death to this Mark. 
• Massive promotion of diabolical deceptions (including many of those warned against here), along with mandatory acquiescence to the lies contained therein.
  
  

  So get your spiritual house in order, and buckle your seat belts. Because this particular prophecy and speculation aside, one thing is certain: God will not much longer tolerate this. 

  He will not much longer tolerate His faithful being locked out of Churches, out of the Mass, out of the Sacraments, due to Covid’s existence or due to being “unvaccinated.”

• He is not much longer going to tolerate children being indoctrinated with the LGBT agenda – no longer just by relatively fringe groups, but by the most temporally powerful entities on earth.

• He is not much longer going to tolerate the unborn being slaughtered, and the “Catholic” president of the world’s most powerful country vociferously advocating for this genocide.

• He is not much longer going to tolerate such rampant doctrinal confusion in the Church.

• He is not much longer going to tolerate Christians being slaughtered by Islamic Terrorists in Asia and Africa.

• He is not much longer going to tolerate the emergence of Global Communism through the Great Reset Covid agenda that is already largely in place throughout the world. 

An agenda being implemented - as prophesied by others than Prof O'Connor - at bewildering speed by Ardern,Robertson&Co, Death Dealers to the Nation, in New Zealand.

• He is, in a word, not much longer going to extend the Time of Mercy.

  So maybe it’s all nothing. Maybe the Year of St. Joseph is/was just a normal year, the opening months of 2022 will be uneventful, and Fr. Michel’s message was just an elaborate pious themed dream. Or, maybe, this is it. 

  Let’s be spiritually ready, in case it is the latter. Therefore:

  • Repent of your sins and remain in a state of grace
  • Trust in and proclaim the Divine Mercy
  • Live in the Divine Will
  • Proclaim the Kingdom
  • Pray the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet every day
  • Receive the Eucharist as often as possible
  • Consecrate yourselves and your families to the Holy Family
  • In a word: become a saint. Now.
    • (And do so in the duties of your state in life!)

  Appendix:

  And, if you can reasonably manage it, consider being a bit physically ready too: get a bunch of white rice, peanut butter, 88 cent gallon water jugs, enough spare gasoline to fill your car’s tank, a way to cook some food without utilities, and enough winter clothing to stay warm without utilities (hint: thrift store!). Prophecy aside, global supply chains are already in crisis, and things look like they’ll only get worse. Have an oil or propane tank at home? You might want to fill it up. Heat your house with wood or pellets? Now might be a good time to get your supply ready. Do more if you like and feel called to (above all with the intent of helping others who are in need), but that’s a good baseline. And if God is prompting you not to oncern yourself with any such preparations, then don’t concern yourself with any such preparations. His Will alone is our refuge, and as I’ve said many times before, someone living in an apartment in a big city with no room for supplies and no time for preparations, but who nevertheless trusts God, is infinitely safer than a self-trusting billionaire living in a well-stocked bunker in the middle of nowhere.
