![]() To quiet her, Lucia said: “Don’t be afraid! You’re going to Heaven.” If Our Lady lets you, tell everybody what hell is like, so that they won’t commit any more sins and not go to hell.”Īt other times, after thinking for a while, she said: “So many people falling into hell! So many people in hell!” She would seize hold of Lucia and say: “I’m going to Heaven, but you are staying here. “I’m so sorry for sinners! If only I could show them hell!” she exclaimed. So shaken and moved was child Jacinta that she responded immediately. Later in the convent Lucia wrote her bishop that people, “even devout ones … sometimes are afraid to speak about hell to the children lest they frighten them, but God did not hesitate to show it to three children…knowing well that they would be horrified to the point of, I would almost dare to say, withering away with fear.” Yet how many adults never hear about it? Remember, these seers were children at the time. While today many don’t want to “frighten” adults with the idea or word “hell,” our Lord wasn’t shy about using it (check out the Gospels), and neither was his Mother, all for our good and ultimate triumph in reaching heaven. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she will be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The good will be martyred the Holy Father will have much to suffer various nations will be annihilated. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. ![]() To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of reparation on the First Saturdays. When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that He is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father. ![]() The war is going to end: but if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the pontificate of Pius Xl. She went on: If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace. Right there Our Lady gave the remedy, the means of safety, the sure way to avoid the eternal conflagration.Īlthough we want to focus on this part of the first secret, let’s look at what Our Lady continued to say at the time. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart.” ![]() “We then looked up at Our Lady, who said to us so kindly and so sadly: You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. Otherwise, I think we would have died of fear and terror. Looking back, Lucia explained, “How can we ever be grateful enough to our kind heavenly Mother, who had already prepared us by promising, in the first Apparition, to take us to Heaven. The demons could be distinguished by their terrifying and repellent likeness to frightful and unknown animals, all black and transparent. Plunged in this fire were demons and souls in human form, like transparent burning embers, all blackened or burnished bronze, floating about in the conflagration, now raised into the air by the flames that issued from within themselves together with great clouds of smoke, now falling back on every side like sparks in a huge fire, without weight or equilibrium, and amid shrieks and groans of pain and despair, which horrified us and made us tremble with fear. “Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the earth. She wrote, “The secret is made up of three distinct parts, two of which I am now going to reveal. In July 1941, Sister Lucia revealed the first two secrets in her Memoirs written at the direction of her bishop. Do we really want to pay attention to that one? The answer seems to be ‘No.” The answer comes in the way the world has been heading, especially in the last few years. Why do most people ignore the first and second of the three secrets given by Our Lady at Fatima in July 2017? The first one is about hell.
