The Virgin Mary in Chile (1980's):

"The Holy Father will have to die.  The successor [Gloriae Olivae -
antipope? - cohort of Antichrist?] will arrive.  Then another one will
come [Petrus Romanus] and he will be the last.

Don't you understand that we are in the end times?  Has not it been said
that all that is happening must happen before My Sons second coming?  Was
it not said that the men would be like women and the women like men?
Wasn't it also stated that he [Antichrist] would be born spitting
blasphemies and with serpents teeth?

Are your eyes closed?  Or do you not want to open them in fear, in fear of
seeing reality?  But it has also been said:  There will be a great sign, a
woman dressed with the sun, with the moon under her feet.  How many things
have been said!  And many do not want to hear."

News Release (which sounds suspiciously like the Antichrist's "Declaration
Day"):

>>WORLD INVOCATION DAY- May 21, 1997:   a world day of prayer, when men
and women of every spiritual path... transcending the outer differences of
faith and belief... join in a universal appeal to divinity and use the
Great Invocation.  Together they focus the invocative demand of humanity
for the light, the love and the spiritual direction needed to build a
world of justice, unity and peace.

To use the Great Invocation is world service for it is an instrument of
power in the manifestation of the Plan of God on earth. It speaks
directly to world need today. ... we need the power of the will-to-good to
direct human choice and decision making.

The universal use of the Great Invocation on World Invocation Day charges
this day with deep spiritual significance...

In the Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, and Jewish translations of the Great
Invocation, the name by which the Coming One is known in these religions
is used ---the LORD MAITREYA, Krishna, the Imam Mahdi and the Messiah.<<

Prophecy of Venerable Bartholomew Holzhauser (d.1658):

"Antichrist will come as the Messiah from a land between two seas in the
East.  He will be born in the desert, his mother being a prostitute to the
Jews and Hindus.  He will be a lying and false prophet and will try to
rise to heaven like Elias.

He will begin work...when thirty years old [a much-presumed date for the
birth of the Antichrist is the mid-60's].  He and his army will conquer
Rome, kill the Pope and take the throne...   The Jews, knowing from the
Bible that Jerusalem will be the seat of the Messiah, will come from
everywhere, and accept him as the Messiah...  The Antichrist will live
fifty five and one half years, that is, 666 months."

Upon reading "Chapter 13" of Christina Gallagher's most recent book, and
how she described a man she understood to be the Antichrist to be "in his
50's", I think it is particularly pertinent to note the prediction of
Venerable Bartholomew Holzhauser.

Unless his reign has been mitigated (Our Lady through Father Gobbi does
mention a "shorten[ing]"), 55.5-3.5 = 52, which would again seemingly make
his rise to power imminent.

According to several mystics, we are to see the revelation of one of the
TWO beasts very soon (ex: Christina Gallaghers' "Echo of the Antichrist",
who seems to be a Bishop or Cardinal.  Revelation speaks of two beasts,
and one is a religious figure, i.e. looks like a lamb, but speaks as a
dragon (antipope?).

There are supposedly many Antichrists, but two have special mention.  One
is often referred to as the false prophet, which again seems to be the
religious figure.  It seems possible, that these two could come at
slightly different points in history.  All indications from many seemingly
authentic visionaries, refer to the next 'Pope' to be the one to be wary
of.  As La Salette says Rome will lose the faith and become Seat of
Antichrist.

From Call of the Ages, regarding Father Gobbi, who clearly states the
coming of Antichrist in the near-term (this century):

"   The Virgin has said that when the Mass is viewed NOT AS A SACRIFICE,
but as A SACRED MEAL, that is to say, a remembrance of that which Jesus
did at His Last Supper, the Horrible Sacilege will have been accomplished
by the Antichrist.  This will last three and a half years, namely 1,290
days. And when may this occur?  A message from Mary to Father Gobbi on
June 7, 1981, gives us one final clue:

'But, in these times, you have need of being defended from the terrible
snares of my adversary, who has succeeded in establishing his reign in
the world.  It is the reign which is opposed to Christ; it is the reign
of the  Antichrist.  IN THIS LAST PART OF YOUR CENTURY, THIS REIGN OF HIS
WILL REACH THE PEAK OF ITS STRENGTH, OF ITS POWER, OF ITS' GREAT
SEDUCTION. (my emphasis)  This hour is in preparation when the man of
iniquity, who wants to put himself in the place of God to have himself
adored as God, is about to manifest himself in all his power.'"

I realize there are arguments for and against his arrival at this point in
history, but, in the interest of exploring all possibilities, the
following information, as built upon research by Pietro Sgarbi
(101741,3120) is presented.....

There should seemingly be a parallel between the actions of the
Antichrist and the actions of Jesus (as described in the Bible).  The
Antichrist could literally emulate the true Christ, in an opposite
fashion.

Probable sequence of the Antichrist:

1.  Born from an Anti-Mary, from a woman consecrated to God that
Satan possessed because she intentionally betrayed God.  This woman could
be a former nun.

2.  He grows without any evidence of who he really is.

3.  He lives hidden for a certain period.

4.  Someone else (another man) will prepare (for about 3 years) the people
for his coming into the world, like John the Baptist did for Jesus.

5.  He starts preaching personally his Anti-Gospel some (3 or more)
years before being "sacrificed".  He also elects a number (12) of
followers (apostles), that will propagate his word in the world.

6.  During this preaching period he performs miracles.

7.  He establishes the Anti-Eucharist during his "last supper".

8.  He accepts to be sacrificed for the "anti-redemption", that is the
damnation of souls redeemed by the sacrifice of Jesus (potentially all
who have been baptized).

9.  After 3 days he will be reborn into a spiritual body, empowered enough
to perform even greater miracles than before and rule the whole world.

10.  Before his return, his mother (who has died in the mean time) is
empowered to appear as if she were the Holy Mother (this is why *Mary*
warned us that *she* will cease appearing soon).

11.  After 40-50 days or so, he will reveal his true nature to his
Apostles, but, since he has the power of mind-control, it may be a false
revelation.  In other words, what he will declare may not be that his true
identity is that of Satan.

12.  For a long period he will be worshipped and will have his own
anti-church, anti-priests and anti-pope.  This will be the full
APOSTASY foretold by Daniel and by Revelation.

13.  He then returns among people for his final anti-judgment = Last
Battle before the Judgment Day, as it is written.

Many of these 13 indications are evident in past prophecies posted
previously.  "Sign" #1 is readily evident in these.  Furthermore, the
above sequences #2 through #6 correspond precisely with facts from the
past 37 years; facts precisely associated with the person known as
"Maitreya".

Correlations:

* Maitreya says he suddenly appeared as an adult in the Himalayas, coming
from his "retired place".  See #2 and #3 above.

* He has had a forerunner - a man named Benjamin Creme, initiated by a
"Master".  This man started spreading Maitreya's creed over the world in
1974 in order to prepare people for his imminent coming.  He was first
contacted by this "Master" in 1959.  See #4 above.

* Maitreya started preaching directly in 1977, exactly 3 years later.  He
also says that he formed a group of "Masters" (probably twelve).  He
says that he will reveal his true "nature" on his "Declaration Day".  See
#5 above.

* He has performed "miracles" - healings, telepathic teaching, etc.  See
#6 above.

Now, the letters in the name "Benjamin Creme" can be re-assembled into 2
different latin sentences, each having an apparent meaning:

1- NIMBEM CENA REJ
   With cloud (is the) supper of the guilty.

2- I.C.N.R.J. BENE MEAM
(Iesus Christus Nazarenus Rex Judaeorum:  letters written on the plate
nailed to the Cross by Romans).  Thus the possible meaning is:  I will own
the Cross of Jesus.

The first "meaning" is alluding to Jesus' Last Supper, and it can be
deduced that the Antichrist will act exactly during Good Thursday,
"clouding" it (re: "smoke" entering the Sanctuary) with his presence.

The second "meaning" can be interpreted in two different ways:

a)  The Antichrist, will imitate Jesus -  convincing everybody he is the
true Christ;

b)  Now (or when the time is right) he gets power over the Cross of Jesus.
Thus he will be able to "anti-redempt" souls, to carry them to damnation.

These two interpretations and these two "meanings" *can* co-exist and
indicate two different moments in the Antichrist scenario.  See #7 and #8
above.

Although "sequences" #7 and #8 are speculated-upon future events (as well
as #9 thru #13) that remain to be clarified, these correlations defining a
parallel between the Antichrist and Maitreya thus far are, perhaps
frightingly, consistent.

There is a possible connection between the 3rd secret of Fatima and the
Antichrist.  It is generally accepted that this secret relates to the
Faith, or more precisely, to a "falling away" from the faith (apostasy).
Bishop Ratzinger has allegedly confirmed this much.  Furthermore, Fr.
Gobbi adds that it relates to the Church and to Humanity.  These seem to
be confirmations of the "Apostasy theory".

Lucia of Fatima has allegedly indicated (in 1959) that we are now living
the "7th Seal", and she explicitly referred to chapters 8 and 13 of
Revelation.  She strongly asked that the message must be revealed, should
the Pope so choose (it was his perogative to reveal it or not reveal it -
in fact Lucia advised against it) not after 1960 (if at all).   And so the
following scenario might be deduced:

*  The human precursor of Maitreya was contacted by a "Master" in 1959,
just 1 year before 1960.

* The Pope reads the 3rd secret in 1959, but decides not to reveal it (as
was always his perogative).  Perhaps that Pope and his successors have
felt that revealing a "loss of faith" (a full apostasy) to the faithful
would be counter-productive (possibly even accelerating the process).  In
other words the Church chose not to reveal a prophesied gloomy future for
that same Church.

The Antichrist will be able to betray everybody, making us think (he
allegedly has the power of mind control) that we are witnessing God's
action while it will actually be his own action.  This could then be the
beginning of Apostasy.

Fatima's 3rd secret could well be involved because, as revealed to Fr.
Gobbi, Fatima is the place where Mary will "spread Her light over the
world in the day of the Triumph of Her Immaculate Heart, after the painful
struggle originated by the Battle between She and Her Adversary."

If 1959 was indeed the year of the 7th Seal, it is possible that some
"members" of the Church are already being led by the devil (re: the June
18th 1965 Garabandal message that "...many priests are on the road to
perdition and are taking many souls with them").

The "666 marking" may well be imminent, or perhaps it has already
started (some governments/military forces *are* embedding
"identification" markings in their citizens/personnel).

Maitreya may indeed be the Antichrist since he seemingly fits all the
"qualifications" outlined, and there does not appear to be sufficient time
(in the currently considered scenario) for a second candidate to come
forth - (by mid-July if there is to be a complete 3-1/2 year reign
co]ncluding before the end of 2001 - before the beginning of the reign of
the Immaculate Heart).

Some previous posts have included notes to the effect that the Antichrist
MUST "appear" by June or July of *1996* so that his 3.5 year reign could
be completed BY (as opposed to DURING) 2000.

But by interpreting anytime WITHIN 2000 for the reign of the Immaculate
Heart to begin, the "schedule" can be "pushed ahead".  Afterall, THE 3RD
MILLENNIUM ACTUALLY DOES NOT BEGIN UNTIL 2001!

This is not a case of making "excuses" to "push back" the timeframe.  This
is a fact.  The 19th century ends on Dec. 31st, 2000.   Perhaps the fact
that some messages refer to the year 2000 and some to the 3rd millennium
is just a communications/translation problem.

The Antichrist's reign and fulfillment of Marian prophecies (Warning and
Miracle of Garabandal, etc.) *could* "overlap", thus allowing the scenario
placing the Miracle in 1998 (4-9-98 or 4-16-98).

Either of these dates would be in keeping with the notion that the
Miracle should be associated with the Eucharist.  4-9-98 is Holy Thursday,
and 4-16-98 is also within the Easter season  (and, of course, in
maintaining an association with the Eucharist, we know the Miracle WILL
coincide with the "feastday of a martyr of the Eucharist" (although we
haven't been able to identify *which* one.  St. Vincent of Pontmain may be
the key here).

The reason for trying to place the Warning/Miracle *before* the emergence
of the Antichrist (Maitreya) is because it is assumed that he will try to
"take credit" for these divine events, plus there are predictions to the
effect that he will assume power very soon after the "warning".

But will Maitreya "emulate" Christ and deceive us with his own version of
a "false warning" on his "Day of Declaration"?

Previously, it has been assumed that the Warning and the Miracle must come
BEFORE the actions of the Antichrist.   But we must consider that, since
he strongly needs to be accepted as the "saviour" of mankind, that he will
be able to betray and conquer the hearts (and souls) of a lot of people
only if he is able to produce *his own "miracle" (and accompanying "false"
warning* BEFORE the truly Divine events.

Thus, the hypothetical questions become:  How can the Antichrist be
accepted by the world if other obviously Divine events happen first and
are recognized by Humanity?  And how can we justify the words of
Revelation, where it is said that the Antichrist will make us think he is
the true Christ (returned) by performing wonders and miracles?

We should not underevaluate the capabilities of this (alleged) Antichrist,
Maitreya, and that he may fully utilize his "powers" in order to acheive
control of entire world as soon as he can.

Perhaps this will come on his Declaration Day (before mid-July?).  And
according to what has been hypothesised here and to what Maitreya is
claiming about worldwide telepathic communication, it could be a kind of
warning - the Antichrist warning (in the logic of emulating what Jesus has
planned to do).

If this comes to pass, the faithful should be able to discern a "false"
warning from a Divine Warning by it's RESULTS.

The results, or yield of, a Divine Warning will be that people will be
drawn back to the real church.  An "Antichrist-produced warning" would
lead people to a different, false, realization (to him).

Now, from our vantage point, maybe God's timing hasn't *seemed* exact.
For instance, in the previously set-forth timeline wherein the "7 day
theory" as accepted by the early Catholic Church was consideresd (taking a
literal translation of "a day is as a thousand years", with each 1000
years of history corresponding to one of the 7 days of creation).....

Year 1          Adam & Eve                               Creation

1000            Punishment                               The Flood

2000            Abraham                                  2000 B.C.

3000            Founding of Jerusalem                    1000 B.C.

4000            Birth of Christ                          0

5000            Catholicism is Questioned                1000 A.D.

6000            Conquest of Antichrist/Era of Peace      2000 A.D.

....the "timing" has obviously been "rounded".   We can't say for certain
that Abraham was born *exactly* four thousand years ago, and we *know*
that Christ wasn't born *exactly* at year "0" (3 B.C. being the most
widely accepted date).  And Jewish peoples celebrated the 3000th
anniversary of the founding of Jerusalem this past year.

But certainly God's overall design is perfect.  And now, we have been
given (by Mary through Fr. Gobbi and others) reference dates (the
beginning of the 3rd millennium as *we* currently measure time) to work
*backwards* from.

True, in Thessalonians chapter 5, Paul says, "Concerning times and
seasons, you have no need for anything to be written to you."  But a few
sentences later, he says "let us stay alert and sober..."

So we see again the great Mercy of God in permitting Mary to announce what
lies ahead, whereby she has basically justified such speculation as is
being presented, for the sake of the many who are unaware and unprepared.

Now we can begin to put together the pieces with a more exact timing
scenario beginning with some "given" timeframes:

1) The Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary MUST come before
12-31-2000 according to messages from Fr. Gobbi.

2)  Again according to Fr. Gobbi, Mary will perform a Miracle on her Day
of Triumph.

3)  We assume this is the same Miracle as forecast at Garabandal.

If we were to place the Miracle on April 13th, 2000 (instead of in 1998),
this date minus 1260 days would put us at 10-26-96.  Thus this date *may
have* marked the "beginning" (in a hidden way) of the reign of the
Antichrist, and the corresponding "countdown" of 1260 days before the
Miracle.

Interestingly, news availaable under "Maitreya.org" on the worldwide web
says that October 26, 1996 was Maitreya's "official entrance to world
status".

How do we account for the apparently "different" count of days in the
following?..........

In Revelation and in a message from Mary to Fr. Gobbi on 12-31-92 where
she mentions the LENGTH of the Antichrist's reign:

"...The sacrifice of the Mass...will be suppressed...by the AC [for] about
3-1/2 years, namely, 1,260 days."

And.................

"Now, from the moment that the daily sacrifice is abolished...there will
be 1,290 days.  Blessed is he who waits...1,335 days." (Daniel 12:9-12)

This apparent "difference" can easily be accounted for if a 45-day
Chastisement were to begin 30 days after the Miracle.

These prophecies are accompanied by predictions that the Mass will be
suppressed, though, and at this point in time, it's hard to foresee such a
suppression beginning anytime soon.  So as Mary's other messages indicate,
possibly the "time of suffering" (persecution of the Church) has been
pushed back (moved ahead to an abbreviated schedule, that is).

Alternate scenarios might consider the "intent" for such a suppression to
have begun at the end of last October.

Does any of this have anything to do with the Hale-Bopp comet we've been
discussing and it's "appearance" (discovery) at 666 million miles, which
many consider to be a "sign" of the Antichrist??  (RE:  ANTICHRIST'S
ARRIVAL WOULD BE MARKED BY AN ASTRONOMICAL SIGN SIMILAR TO THE STAR OF
BETHLEHEM.)

Thursday, March 27, 1997 (Holy Thursday).........

Jesus said to John Leary:

"My son, this comet that you have seen tonight with your own eyes, is the
sign of the Anti- Christ's coming.  I have told you before to look to the
skies for the signs of things to come.  I have also told you that I, and
not the Anti-Christ, would produce this sign of his coming.  As you see
the darkness come after, you will know his reign will be brief, but
darkness will have its day much like the men I allowed to crucify Me for
your sake."

But was there an "astronomic" significance?  Consider the following report
by Dan Millar:

>>  While plotting the paths of Hyakutake during the month of
April 96, against the projected path of comet Hale-Bopp during the month
of April 97 an ALMOST PERFECT CROSS is formed. i.e. they intersect at
almost 90 degree angles.  Furthermore, the point at which they cross,
both comets were at this point on the EXACT same day.  This day is April
11th.  In other words, on April 11th 1996, comet Hyakutake occupied the
same spot in the sky that comet Hale-Bopp did on April 11th 1997.

Now, where is this point in the sky?  Apparently this point is in the
constellation of Perseus, who holds the severed head of the Gorgon,
Medusa. This intersection point just happens to be in the middle of the
head of Medusa at the eye.  This eye is the star ALGOL.  So in Greek
mythology, these two comets intersect on the same day, in different years,
forming an almost perfect cross in the eye of Medusa!

Traditionally, according to the Starlore Handbook, ALGOL is the MOST
MALEVOLENT star of the heavens.  More interesting is what the Hebrews
called this star.  In Hebrew it is known as the HEAD OF SATAN!  So, in
light of the recent John Leary messages, and previous ones by Patricia
Talbot (ie. a comet will be a sign of the coming of Antichrist - John
Leary, and a comet will come before chastisement - Patricia Talbot) and
others, this is incredibly coincidental.<<

Another opinion:

>>Why April 11th?  This is the Feast of Saint Stanislaus. St. Stanislaus
is the Patron Saint of Poland, a martyr of the Eucharist, and was Bishop
of Cracow.  Interestingly enough, Pope John Paul II was also Bishop of
Cracow, and is prophesied by various visionaries to be martyred in the
future.<<

Okay, now what if we placed the Antichrist's reign LATER, after the
Triumph.  Well, many people believe that the Antichrist was born in 1964,
which would make him 33 in 1997 (the age of Jesus when he was crucified).
If Maitreya is actually this age, and if Christina Gallagher saw a man in
his fifties, that would give us another 20 years until the reign of
Antichrist.

Maria Valtorta refers to what we know as the period of the AntiChrist at
the end (one generation as Our Lady of La Salette said) of the Time of
Peace the AntiChrist is the "hour of temptation that will come upon the
whole world" (ch.3 v.10) and which comes at the end of the period of
the church at Philadelphia (which means Peace/brotherly love).
