WE HAVE MOVED!

"And I beheld, and heard the voice of one eagle flying through the midst of heaven,
saying with a loud voice: Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth....

God Has a Flare for the Dramatic

God Has a Flare for the Dramatic

 

Our Lady to Blessed Aiello (1959): "If men do not repent a purifying fire from heaven will fall like snowstorms upon all peoples and a greater part of humanity will be destroyed."
But if men do not return to God, purifying fire will fall from the Heavens, like snowstorms, on all peoples, and a great part of humanity will be destroyed!’ - See more at: http://www.mysticsofthechurch.com/2011/09/blessed-elena-aiello-mystic-stigmatic.html#sthash.fezOO3XE.dpuf

A harmless solar event last month was the most powerful storm on the sun in more than 150 years. If it happened a week earlier, scientists say it would have set the earth back to the Middle ages.

          

NASA (the National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has recently disclosed that two years ago, on July 23, 2012, planet Earth almost plunged into global catastrophe.
On that date, a solar flare — better known in scientific parlance as a “coronal mass ejection” (CME) — came close to hitting the Blue Planet and disabling electrical appliances everywhere, thereby causing a widespread global blackout. It was the most powerful storm on the sun in more than 150 years.
Had it flared up just a week earlier, Earth, according to scientists, would have been directly in its line of fire. As a result, it would have sent the planet back to the Middle Ages. Just 10 minutes without electricity, Internet communications and everything else that requires electricity would have brought about chaos on an epic scale.
In the words of a scientist from the University of Colorado, “I have come away from our recent studies more convinced than ever that Earth and its inhabitants were incredibly fortunate that the 2012 eruption happened when it did.”.
The CME’s potential for global disaster makes "global warming", by comparison, look like a light drizzle on a summer afternoon. At the same time, there is not much scientists can do to protect the planet from calamities that originate from outer space.

Were the inhabitants of the Earth fortunate that disaster was avoided? Or does this “near miss” direct our thoughts to God, who, in his divine providence, is the only one who is in control of the cosmos?
Physicist Pat Riley, in a paper entitled, “On the Probability of Occurrence of Extreme Space Weather Events,” calculates that the odds of a solar storm strong enough to disrupt our lives in the next 10 years are 12%. Should we keep our fingers crossed? Or should we have faith in God’s providence?
The Book of Wisdom states: “God made the little and the great, and he has equally care of all” (8:1). “Wisdom reaches from end to end mightily and orders all things sweetly” (6:9). “Thou hast ordered all things in number, measure and weight.” “There is no other God but thou who has care of all” (12:3).
According to the First Vatican Council, “God protects and governs by his providence all things which he has made” (11:20). St. Thomas Aquinas adds that God’s providence presupposes justice and mercy. God is not merely a great architect. He is a loving God.
If men do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the deluge, such as one will never have seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead. The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and the Sign left by My Son." Our Lady of Akita, 1973

 Since we cannot look to scientists (and certainly not to politicians) for protection against calamities that have an extraterrestrial origin, does prayer have any utility in this regard? Aquinas answers in the affirmative: “For we pray, not that we may change the divine disposition, but that we may impetrate [to obtain by requesting] that which God has disposed to be fulfilled by our prayers” (Summa Theologiae II-II, 83, a 2).
The “Angelic Doctor” amplifies what he means by emphasizing “that by asking, men may deserve to receive what almighty God from eternity has incorporated in the Divine Plan that represents what he knows is best for us.”
If one does not have faith in divine Providence, he must inevitably assume a fatalistic attitude concerning cosmic events that pose dire threats to the human race.
For Aquinas, however, “it does not follow that whatever is subject to the divine will or power, is subject to fate.” In other words, the element of freedom, both divine and human, comes into play. We are free to pray; God is free to answer out prayers with justice and mercy. Even miracles are possible.
Was it a matter of luck that the CME did not strike Earth? Will the time come when we run out of "luck"? Or was it an event that was written from all eternity into God’s providential plan?

Apocalypse: Wormwood, Poleshift & Prophecy 

TradCatKnight addition: The chastisements coming are inevitable and unavoidable. We can, however, through prayer, mitigate these "loving blows" sent by God to "re-route" hearts back unto Catholic Truth and true Christian living.
