St Francis Endtime Prophecy: Unless
Those Days Be Shortened
By: Eric Gajewski
Many of you are already somewhat
familiar with the St. Francis Endtime Prophecy.
A large number of people however fail to realize just how close we are
to the Tribulation. They do not draw the
connection between what Our Lord said in the Gospel and what St. Francis says
in this prophecy. Our Lord said in
Mathew 24:22 “that unless those days be shortened” no flesh would survive. The same was reiterated by St. Francis of
Assisi. Was Our Lord indicating that
people would not literal survive or is He stating this in a spiritual
sense? It seems to me it is both. We are surrounded by so much evil that if God
truly doesn’t shorten the days no man nor woman would probably survive and/or
save their soul. With the ongoing “chilling”
of charity we see just how close we are to the arrival of the Antichrist. Having said this, let us break down the
endtime prophecy of St. Francis further.
First, the prophecy itself: "There will be an uncanonically elected pope who will cause a great Schism, there will be diverse thoughts preached which will cause many, even those in the different orders to doubt, yea, even agree with those heretics which will cause my Order to divide, then will there be such universal dissension and persecutions that if those days were not shortened even the elect would be lost." (source: The Reign of Antichrist by Rev. R. Gerald Culleton)
Shortly before he died,
St. Francis of Assisi called together his followers and warned them of the
coming trials saying:
1. The time is fast approaching in which there
will be great trials and afflictions; perplexities and dissensions, both
spiritual and temporal, will abound; the charity of many will grow cold, and
the malice of the wicked will increase.
2. The devils will have unusual power, the
immaculate purity of our Order, and of others, will be so much obscured that
there will be very few Christians who will obey the true Sovereign Pontiff and
the Roman Church with loyal hearts and perfect charity. At the time of this
tribulation a man, not canonically elected, will be raised to the Pontificate,
who, by his cunning, will endeavour to draw many into error and death.
3. Then scandals will be multiplied, our Order
will be divided, and many others will be entirely destroyed, because they will
consent to error instead of opposing it.
4. There will be such diversity of opinions and
schisms among the people, the religious and the clergy, that, except those days
were shortened, according to the words of the Gospel, even the elect would be
led into error, were they not specially guided, amid such great confusion, by
the immense mercy of God.
5. Then our Rule and manner of life will be
violently opposed by some, and terrible trials will come upon us. Those who are
found faithful will receive the crown of life; but woe to those who, trusting
solely in their Order, shall fall into tepidity, for they will not be able to
support the temptations permitted for the proving of the elect.
6. Those who preserve in their fervour and adhere
to virtue with love and zeal for the truth, will suffer injuries and,
persecutions as rebels and schismatics; for their persecutors, urged on by the
evil spirits, will say they are rendering a great service to God by destroying
such pestilent men from the face of the earth. but the Lord will be the refuge
of the afflicted, and will save all who trust in Him. And in order to be like
their Head, [Christ] these, the elect, will act with confidence, and by their
death will purchase for themselves eternal life; choosing to obey God rather
than man, they will fear nothing, and they will prefer to perish rather than
consent to falsehood and perfidy.
7. Some preachers will keep silence about the
truth, and others will trample it under foot and deny it. Sanctity of life will
be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days
JESUS CHRIST WILL SEND THEM NOT A TRUE PASTOR, BUT A DESTROYER."

Uncanonically elected “Pope”. Of course, Francis, is not a true Pope and he
has even admitted that he maybe the actual one to fulfill this prophecy. This is not conjecture on my part but his
actual words. This long foretold “endtime
schism” which would be the greatest in Church history is yet another sign that
we are close to the end of the world.
Who can argue that we are not close to this formal schism? Now, although, I do not agree with those who
say Francis is the False Prophet he is a wolf or a false prophet forerunner to “Master
Jesus” (who will soon arrive to “unify the Christian churches). The mere fact that we are hearing an “ecumenical
rite” is coming is only further proof of just how close we are to the arrival
of the False Prophet and this formal schism.
It wont stop there though. The
plan is to abolish the Mass altogether and set up Maitreya’s Image (abomination
of desolation) in these “Christian churches”.
Great Dissension. In addition to
what has already been mentioned who can argue that there are diverse opinions
maintained worldwide. There seems to be
no unity anywhere let alone in “traditionalistland”. This is a part of the spiritual chastisement
we are going through. Vatican II was
heretical and wrought confusion and now we are seeing the fruits of St. Francis’s
words come to pass. Sadly, there are
even some “Catholics” giving up on the fight altogether and abandoning
Religion. This only proves that they did
not love Our Lord. Only he who will persevere
unto the very end in this trial of all trials shall be saved. We know from Holy Scripture only FEW will
remain faithful unto the end.
Devils with unusual power. This will only be short lived. We know that the Triumph of the Catholic
Religion is coming. It is foretold at
Fatima and in the Apocalypse. It was
foretold by so many esteemed theologians and Saints. Our Lady of LaSalette records that from about
the mid 1860’s onward more and more devils have been unchained and are free
roaming this earth seeking the ruination of souls and society as a whole. The St. Michael prayer is all too important
and we should never let a day pass without saying it. It seems evil now reigns from the Vatican to
the various world governments. It must
be this way and come to pass so that God can demonstrate His power in the
end. He will protect His people through
the intercession of His Blessed Mother. She
is our Ark and all those who climb aboard inside are safe. The Apocalypse records the Church going into
the desert at the time of the persecution of the Antichrist. The Woman here again representing both the
Church and Our Lady. The time to take
your salvation seriously (if you haven’t already) is now. So many events are happening daily with
stories recording just how demonic the world is getting. Children walking around with the decapitated
heads of their parents. People having “sexual
relations with a fence and/or robots. I
truly do not even post half the garbage I read because it is all too
demonic. We are in the end of days.
Scandals and consent to error. Not even supposed traditionalists are
remaining steadfast. This was to be
expected not only from this prophecy but from the message of Akita. The compromise of the clergy and laity are recorded. Sadly, those false traditionalists who think
the path they are following will lead to the pot of gold on the other side of
the rainbow are sadly deceived. We have
had the latest pseudo traditionalist group the SSPX continue to say Vatican II
can be understood in the light of Tradition.
This is GRAVE error and no Catholic can accept this nor partake in
communion with those who believe as such.
Archbishop Lefebvre forbade it.
The scandals pile high these days whether it is from Rome or throughout
the various diocese’s. We must
pray. We must hold firm in Faith that
this Storm to pass will “clear the air” so that we can start anew. Francis now seemingly is open to married
priests breaking with the tradition of the Latin Church. Let us face it the Conciliar Church is
antidiscipline. They want everything
loosey and goosey. False obedience has
been prevalent since Vatican II. All we
here is “trust the spirit”. God would
never allow such an apostasy. Or better
yet you are just misquoting or taking statement’s out of context. These people are not only just delusional they
simply aren’t Catholic. They are unable
to distinquish between the Church and erroring churchmen and thus they are
being dragged along in the New Religion right into the formal schism coming.
Seen as rebels and schismatics. Who can argue this. Those not following the New Religion of
Vatican II are seen this way. The actual
protestants call us protestants wherein they don’t even know the very
principles that are being taught have already been previously condemned. It truly is a “mad hour” as St. Anthony the
Great said of our time. Error has become
“truth” and the once teachings of the Church are now labeled as outdated. What is even worse is the notion that Vatican
II can be reconciled with Tradition under the insane argument of “hermeneutics
of continuity”. Have these people even
picked up a book on FreeMasonry? Have they
actually read Pope St. Pius X’s warnings of this One World Church we see
developing now? How do these people go
to sleep at night I wonder. We will
gladly endure such a name with a smile.
God will soon be dealing with them directly and it wont be pretty. These heretics say they are protecting the
Church wilst literally destroying it in the same breath. They are urged on by evil spirits St. Francis
says. The Holy Ghost behind Vatican
II? File that one under the fiction
section. Vatican II was identified as the cult of man according to Paul the 6th. This is a sign it is from Antichrist (substitution of man centered principles).
In close recall the warning of St.
Pius X back in the early 1900’s. The
idea that the Antichrist being alive at this point is not so absurd anymore.
Pope St. Pius X (1835-1914)
“Who can fail to see that society is at the present time, more than in any past age, suffering from a terrible and deep-rooted malady which, developing every day and eating into its inmost being, is dragging it to destruction? You understand, Venerable Brethren, what this disease is—apostasy from God… When all this is considered there is good reason to fear lest this great perversity may be as it were a foretaste, and perhaps the beginning of those evils which are reserved for the last days; and that there may be already in the world the ‘Son of Perdition’ [Antichrist] of whom the Apostle speaks.”
