St. Hyppolitus (d.
235)
: The Great Gaulish Monarch, who shall subject all the East,
shall come around the end of the world."These things, then, coming to
pass, beloved, and the one week being divided
into two parts, and the abomination of desolation being manifested then,
and the two prophets and forerunners of the Lord having finished their
course, and the whole world finally
approaching the consummation, what remains but' the coming of our Lord
and Saviour from heaven, for whom we have looked in hope? who shall bring the conflagration and just judgment upon
all who have refused to believe on Him."
Saint Hildegard
(1098-1179)
: "The time is coming when princes and peoples will reject
the authority of the Pope. Some countries will prefer their own Church
rulers to the Pope. The German Empire will be
divided. .....
A powerful wind will rise in the North, carrying
heavy fog and the densest dust, and it will fill their throats and eyes
so that they will cease their butchery and be stricken with a great fear. " ..."Before the comet comes, many
nations, the good excepted, will be scourged by want and famine. The
great nation in the ocean that is inhabited by people of different tribes and descent will be devastated
by earthquake, storm, and tidal wave. It will be divided and, in great
part, submerged. That nation will also have many misfortunes at sea and lose its colonies. [After the]
great Comet, the great nation will be devastated by earthquakes, storms,
and great waves of water, causing much want
and plagues. The ocean will also flood many other countries, so that all
coastal cities will live in fear, with many destroyed. All sea coast
cities will be fearful, and many of them will
be destroyed by tidal waves, and most living creatures will be killed,
and even those who escape will die from a horrible disease. For
in none of those cities does a person live
according to the Laws of God. Peace will return to the world when the
white flower again takes possession of the throne of France. During this period of peace, people will be
forbidden to carry weapons, and iron will be used only for making
agricultural implements and tools. Also during this period, the land will be very productive, and many
Jews, heathens, and heretics will join the (Catholic) Church.
"The Son of Corruption and Ruin will appear and
reign only for a short time, towards the end of the days of the world's
duration.... He shall come in the last days of the world. He shall not be Satan himself, but a human being
equaling and resembling him in atrocious hideousness. His mother, a
depraved woman, possessed by the devil, will
live as a prostitute in the desert.... She will maintain that her son
was presented to her by God in a supernatural manner, as was the Child
of the Blessed Virgin. She will then be
venerated as a saint by deceived people....."Antichrist will come from
a land that lies between two seas, and will practice tyranny in the East.
After his birth false teachers and doctrines
will appear, followed by wars, famines, and pestilence.... He will be
raised at different secret places and will be kept in seclusion until
full grown. He will lure the people to him by
giving them complete exemption from the observance of all divine and
ecclesiastical commandments, by forgiving them their sins and requiring of them only their belief in his
divinity. He will spurn and reject Baptism and the Gospel. He will say
Jesus of Nazareth is not the son of God, only a deceiver......."He will say I am the Savior of the
world...especially will he try to convince the Jews that he is the
Messiah sent by God, and the Jews will accept him as such...yet by his moral laws he will try to reverse all
order on earth. Therefore he is called in Holy Writ the 'Lawless
One'.... He will discard all laws, morals, and religious principles, to draw the world to himself. He will
grant entire freedom from the commandments of God and the Church and
permit everyone to live as his passion
dictates.... Religion he will endeavor to make convenient. He will say
that you need not fast and embitter your life by renunciation.... It
will suffice to love God.... He will preach
free love and tear asunder family ties...maintain sin and vice are not
sin and vice.... Immediately preceding Antichrist there will be
starvation and earthquakes ."

....."One of the remaining Mohammedans will be
converted, become a priest, bishop and cardinal, and when the new
Pope is elected this cardinal will kill the pope before he is crowned, through jealousy, he wishing to be
pope himself; then when the other cardinals elect the next pope this
cardinal will proclaim himself Anti-Pope, and
two thirds of the Christians will go with him."© 1998 MaxKol

Century)
: A 'God-chosen King' born "between the Rhine and the North
Sea" - ." He will travel to Rome "
Monk Ludwig Heinrich
(1600s)
: "In the last years of the 20th century, one will see the
disappearing of countless animal species, killed by man. But at the end,
it will be the man that it will condemn the man to the death, because everything that grows on the
earth will contain the essence of the death. The air will be the blow of
the death, and as soon as the man breathe it,
he will breathe the death "..... "As soon as the millennium touches its
end, it will rain from the sky one pestilence never saw before on the
earth. And this pestilence will remove all the
force from the man; and the man won't be able more to fight, even
against the worm that crawls on the earth".
Venerable Bartholomew
Holzhauser (17th Century)
: "The fifth period of the Church, which began circa 1520,
will end with the arrival of the holy Pope and of the powerful Monarch
who is called "Help From God" because he will
restore everything. The fifth period is one of affliction, desolation,
humiliation, and poverty for the Church. Jesus Christ will purify His
people through cruel wars, famines, plagues,
epidemics, and other horrible calamities. He will also afflict and
weaken the Latin Church with many heresies. It is a period of
defections, calamities and exterminations.
Those Christians who survive the sword, plague and famines, will be few
on earth. "During this period, many men will abuse of the freedom of conscience conceded to them. It is of such men
that Jude the Apostle spoke when he said, "These men blaspheme whatever
they do not understand; and they corrupt
whatever they know naturally as irrational animals do. They will
ridicule Christian simplicity; they will call it folly and nonsense, but
they will have the highest regard for advanced
knowledge, and for the skill by which the axioms of law, the precepts of
morality, the Holy Canons and religious dogmas are clouded by
senseless questions and elaborate arguments.
"These are the evil times, a century full of dangers and calamities.
Heresy is everywhere, and the followers of heresy are in power
almost everywhere. but God will permit a great evil
against His Church: Heretics and tyrants will come suddenly and
unexpectedly; they will break into the Church.
They will enter Italy and lay Rome waste; they
will burn down churches and destroy everything."... "Antichrist and his
army will conquer Rome, kill the Pope and take the throne."
"The sixth period will begin with the powerful
Monarch."......." The powerful Monarch, who is sent from God, will
uproot every Republic." "He will restore everything." ... "And peace shall reign over the whole
earth." ..." The Empire of the Mohammedans will be broken up ."

hard " ©1997-99 Morgana's Observatory.
White buffalo calf -- a good omen - Floyd Hand Looks For Buffalo, an Oglala medicine man, has
commented: "… These are omens, and they are happening in the most
unexpected place among the poorest people
in the country. They are good omens, if we pay attention to them.
For us, this would be something like coming to see Jesus lying in
the manger."
In 1993, a white buffalo calf was born in
Colorado, and in 1994 another one, named Miracle, was born in
Janesville, Wisconsin, on the ranch of Dave and Valerie Heider. Thousands of people of many different faiths have
visited Miracle, testifying that her birth is a call for all races to
come together to heal the earth and solve our mutual problems. On 9 May of this year, a silvery-white
buffalo calf named Medicine Wheel was born at the ranch of Joe Merrival
on the Pine Ridge reservation of South Dakota.
Another white calf, Rainbow, had been born in the same herd some two
weeks earlier, on 27 April. It died 25 hours later of scours, a
diarrhea-type condition. The odds of the birth
of a white buffalo are estimated as 6-10 million to one.
The birth of a white buffalo calf is seen by the
Native Americans as the most significant of prophetic signs, equivalent
to the weeping statues, bleeding icons, and crosses of light that are becoming prevalent within the
Christian churches. Just as the Christian faithful who attend these
signs see them as a renewal of God's ongoing relationship with humanity, so do the Native Americans see
the white buffalo calf as a sign to begin to mend life's sacred hoop.
The birth of a red
heifer
: 18 March 1997 Arutz Sheva News Service :The birth of a red
heifer (cow) in a farm in the religious youth village of Kfar Hasidim
(near Haifa) has excited sectors in the religious community. A delegation of some 25 experts,
including Rabbis Yisrael Ariel and Yoseph Elboim, visited the farm last
week to examine the six-month old cow, and
concluded that it is in fact an acceptable red heifer, according to
Torah requirements. However, the cow must be at least two years old
before it can be used. Until then, the cow
will be carefully watched to ensure that nothing occurs to invalidate
its status. According to Biblical law, the cow's ashes are used for
purification from certain forms of impurity,
and is therefore a prerequisite for the renewal of Holy Temple service.
A heifer is a young female bovine (cow) prior to the time that she
has produced her first calf.
