The Third Secret warned of 1972

Vatican upheaval



Lucifer enters the highest realms


by David Martin

A cause that assumes more and more relevance with each passing day is the Third Secret of Fatima that was given by the Blessed Virgin Mary to the three child-seers of Fatima in 1917.

The message of Fatima is comprised of three distinct parts, the first two of which were released in 1941 at the request of José Alves Correia da SilvaBishop of Leiria. However, the third part of the message commonly known as the “Third Secret” was to remain a secret until 1960 since it would be better understood then. In the words of the seer, Sr. Lucy: “Then it will seem clearer” (mais claro).

From those who have read the Third Secret we know that the Secret concerned the great apostasy that would bedim the Church after Vatican II, but more specifically it concerned how satan would capture and possess cardinals at the very highest levels of the Church and would use them to misguide the Church but in such a way that this would be done under the illusion of divine guidance. What many would call the Holy Spirit guiding the Church to a glorious “renewal” would in fact be the devil goading the Church to its own destruction.

By 1960, the evils of satan were already encroaching upon the Church, the same that would accelerate at the upcoming Second Vatican Council that was to convene on October 11, 1962, and culminate with Lucifer's coup de grace in 1972. This is why the Third Secret would be better understood than in previous decades.

The urgency of releasing

the Third Secret

 

How much more would the Third Secret be understood today when all hell is loosed in the Church? If the Vatican hierarchy is working around the clock to sow “cultural diversity” and “inclusivity” into the Church and is frantically attempting to merge the Catholic Church with other world religions, it testifies all the more to the truth of the Secret. It indeed speaks of the need to finally release the Third Secret.

The late Fr. Malachi Martin, renowned exorcist, author, and advisor to three popes along with other enlightened clergy like the late Cardinal Luigi Ciappi and Fr. Nicholas Gruner make the point in their writings that the great apostasy in the Church would begin “at the top.” The great apostasy indeed was generated by satan from “the top,” so what Cardinal Ciappi, Malachi Martin, and others were actually saying is that satan had penetrated to the highest ranks of the Catholic hierarchy.

Lucifer enters the highest realms

 

This coincides with the revelations of Christ and his Holy Mother given through the late seer, Veronica of the Cross, during their apparitions at Bayside, New York (1970-1995). On May 13, 1978,* the Blessed Virgin gave us the gist of the Third Secret when she said:

"It is a simple explanation. How I warned and warned that satan would enter into the highest realms of the hierarchy in Rome. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter into My Son's Church."

 

Bayside points out that Vatican II was the fissure through which Satan entered the Church, which echoes what Pope Paul VI declared to the world on June 29, 1972:

“From some fissure the smoke of satan entered into the temple of God.”

 

Hence, we can understand the significance of 1960 as the appointed year for disclosing the Third Secret, since it was only two years later that they would convene the Second Vatican Council, setting into motion a historic departure from tradition that would leave the Church “in ruins.” Our Lady was attempting to avert this disaster to the Church.

In 1990, Cardinal Ratzinger (later Benedict XVI) told Fr. Ingo Dollinger – a spiritual child and close assistant of the late St. Padre Pio – that the Third Secret of Fatima spoke of “a bad council” to come.

Consider now this revelation from Jesus given at the apparition site of Bayside on June 18, 1986:

"On that date, as promised at Fatima, satan entered My Church upon earth. He brought with him his agents.

"And satan himself, the deceiver of all mankind, sat in on Vatican II and maneuvered all the outsiders to come in and distort My doctrines and distort the truth."

 

Here we see that secular agents and leaders of other religions would be brought into the Council so they could subvert the Church. The late Cardinal Augustin Bea, a Masonic initiate, played a major role in this as he headed the Secretariat for the Promotion of Christian Unity that was primarily responsible for inviting to the Council protestants and errant outsiders that would have a hand in drafting the Vatican II documents.

Cardinal Bea boasted of the contribution made by these Protestant advisors in formulating the Vatican II decree on Ecumenism: “I do not hesitate to assert that they have contributed in a decisive way to bringing about this result.”

The 72 schemas

 

The true conciliar documents were the 72 schemas that John XXIII had approved before the Council. According to Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, who had been appointed to the Central Preparatory Committee for checking all the documents, the schemas were worthy and orthodox and should have been used, but to his dismay the Council’s leftist coalition illicitly rejected Pope John’s outline after it had been approved by a 40% vote. Consider Lefebvre’s words:

“From the very first days, the Council was besieged by the progressive forces. We experienced it, felt it… We had the impression that something abnormal was happening and this impression was rapidly confirmed; fifteen days after the opening session not one of the seventy-two schemas remained. All had been sent back, rejected, thrown into the waste-paper basket. The immense work that had been found accomplished was scrapped and the assembly found itself empty-handed, with nothing ready…. Yet that is how the Council commenced.” (Archbishop Lefebvre, Open Letter to Confused Catholics)

This vituperative counter-council that warred against the true Council was fueled by a coalition of radical-left periti that were communistic in orientation. One such agent who participated at the Second Vatican Council expressed his horror over the good schemas of Pope John XXIII.

“Hearing that Pope John had appointed a commission to draw the schemas for the forthcoming Council, I immediately started to work on counter-schemas with the help of avant-garde theologians who had been won over to our way of thinking. Thanks to my contacts I managed to obtain copies of the projected papal schemas: they were terrible! I was in a cold sweat! If these schemas are carried, my work of 20 years will have been in vain. I hastily put the finishing touch to my counter-schemas, and I circulated them. Eventually, they were tabled at the Council.” (Marie Carré, AA 1025, Memoirs of an Anti-Apostle)

Pope Benedict XVI himself pointed out how a “virtual council” had risen up to usurp the “real Council” at Vatican II, lamenting how “it created so many disasters, so many problems, so much suffering: seminaries closed, convents closed, banal liturgy." (Speaking to the clergy of Rome, February 14, 2013)

The present crisis in the Church is all the more reason to release the Third Secret of Fatima. Releasing the Secret would not only embolden the Church Militant to go forward with more fervor but would even inspire lukewarm Catholics to take up the sword in defense of the Faith.

June 2000 release a sham

 

We cannot complete this discussion without pointing out that the so-called release of the Third Secret of Fatima on June 26, 2000, was a sham. Pope John Paul II had intended to release the Third Secret in full but Vatican Secretary of State Cardinal Angelo Sodano** hijacked the project and arranged for a 40-page document to be issued aimed at burying the Secret.

The “release” of the Third Secret opens with a vision that the Virgin Mary gave to Sister Lucy, after which follows a lengthy commentary aimed at explaining away the vision. In supernatural revelations like those of Fatima or Bayside it is common for the Blessed Virgin to show the seer a vision, after which She Herself steps forward and explains the vision in a few words.

Consider again the revelation from Our Lady given at Bayside on May 13, 1978:

“They converse of the Secret that I gave at Fatima. It is a simple explanation. The Third Secret, My child, is that satan would enter into My Son's Church."

 

What Cardinal Sodano and his cohorts did in June 2000 was to release the Fatima vision but then they swapped the Virgin Mary’s explanation with their own. The June 2000 release truly bears the fingerprints of conspiracy.

We pray that the Third Secret of Fatima will one day surface for the edification of the Church.

 

EDITOR'S NOTE To be clear, we are not suggesting or implying that Pope Leo XIV is the antichrist pope of history (June 18, 1991) or "an antipope, a man of dark secrets." (Our Lady, April 10, 1976)

As expressed above, even reinforced by two Popes, Paul VI and Benedict XVI, the nefarious influence has been seen and felt for decades, marked by the saddest and most ignominious and pivotal year the Church has ever seen. What could be worst than this?: "Satan, Lucifer in human form, entered into Rome in the year 1972." (Our Lady, Sept. 7, 1978)

Once again, "the essence of the Third Secret of Fatima: that 666, satan, the forces of antichrist, would enter the highest realms of the hierarchy in Rome beginning in the year 1972!" (A momentous Fatima breakthrough, Oct. 3, 1991)

And lastly, the famous and dramatic "Jacinta 1972" miraculous photo, with 5-part interpretation, that centers on the shocking and sobering revelation: "Antichrist into mitres 1972." (Jesus, Oct. 2, 1989) Veronica of the Cross has declared that this supernatural photo handwritten by Jacinta herself "is one of the greatest gifts given to mankind in these latter days." (Dec. 7, 1978)

Even so, we can make a major dent, if not end this crisis, with two powerful measures: the restoration of the universal practice of praying the St Michael prayer (short exorcism) after Mass, and a concerted and robust campaign of regular prayer, especially the Holy Rosary, for the hierarchy.

For example, we have been offering for 56 years every Sunday a holy hour for Pope and clergy, outdoors, often enduring harsh elements:

"The prayers that you have conducted for the priesthood on the Sundays shall be counted. Then you will rejoice with all Heaven for the number of priestly souls that you have brought back to the fold."

Our Lady, Sept. 27, 1986

 

*May 13, 1978, happened to be the 61st anniversary of the Virgin Mary’s first apparition at Fatima.

**Sodano was a known enemy of John Paul II who would often mock and challenge him in the press and who more than once had called upon the Holy Father to step down from the papacy because he wasn’t catering to the cause of feminist rights and contraception.
