Why Annihilation of
Nations or Not?
Our Lady of Fatima warned
that if Her requests were not heeded, Russia would "spread her errors
throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good
will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations
will be annihilated." However, in His infinite mercy, God has offered us a
way to avoid this terrible punishment. Through the consecration of Russia to
the Immaculate Heart of Mary, we will not only avoid the predicted
chastisements, but we will be granted the inestimable gift of peace throughout
the world for all mankind.
It is important to
particularly note two of Our Lady’s words: nations and annihilation.
Heaven has chosen those words with infinite wisdom. Our Lady did not say
"states" would be annihilated, and was not, therefore, referring to civil
governments or sovereignties. The word "nations" refers to peoples. For
example, when in 1795 Germany, France, Russia and Austria-Hungary overran
Poland and divided it among themselves, the Polish state was annihilated, but
the Polish nation was not annihilated; the Polish people remained. In 1919 the
Polish state was reconstituted. Obviously, the Polish nation had
not been annihilated. So when Our Lady declares that nations will be
annihilated, She’s referring to nations of people, not physical states
marked by borders.
Likewise, the word
"annihilated" is very significant. It comes from the Latin word "nihil," which
means "nothing." Literally, annihilated means "made into nothing." If Our Lady
had meant to say that there would be a near total, but not quite total
destruction of peoples, She would have chosen another word, such as
"devastated." So, distressing as it is to imagine, we must conclude that entire
peoples will be obliterated if we do not first have the Consecration of Russia.
Until now, Our Lady’s most dire warning and prophecy, "various nations
will be annihilated," has not taken place. However, the world moves closer to
its fulfillment daily, as is explained below.
Moving Toward Annihilation
The extermination of vast
multitudes of people is not only possible, it has happened with alarming
frequency since 1917. On the heels of the French Revolution, Robespierre
publicly declared his desire to wipe out around ten million Frenchmen through
his reign of terror; there weren’t many more than that in France. He was
stopped short of his goal, but others weren’t.
Lenin stated that he would be
willing to kill 75% of the world’s population if it meant that what was
left would be communist. Stalin boasted, "If you kill five men it’s
murder; if you kill five million, it’s a political movement." The two men
combined to kill at least 60 million, and maybe as many as
110 million during their reigns as head of Russia and the Soviet Union.
Throughout the 1920’s and 1930’s Stalin starved to death
approximately twenty million people in the Ukraine alone. Mao killed tens of
millions in China during his reign. Half the population – approximately
three million people – of Cambodia was killed in the 1970’s. The list
goes on: Rwanda, Ethiopia, the Balkans, Lebanon in the 1980’s, etc. The
greatest modern holocaust, however, has been the war waged on the unborn.
Abortion was illegal everywhere in the world when Our Lady appeared at the Cova
da Iria in 1917. Yet since 1970, around 800 million children have been
"legally" killed in their mother’s wombs, and the numbers are growing
every year.
The current population of the
world stands at about six billion people. Who would want to annihilate large
numbers of these six billion? The following is one example: There is a monument
in Georgia that displays the viewpoint of some powerful and wealthy people,
particularly the Georgia Guidestones environmental movement. It stands over 19
feet tall at the top of a hill beside Highway 72, about seven miles north of
Elberton, Georgia. On it is written ten principles for the environmental
movement and the "new age of reason" it claims is coming.
The first principle reads,
"Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in Perpetual Balance with Nature." Since
there are six billion people in the world, this monument is essentially calling
for the extermination of more than 90 percent of the world’s population.
Under this principle, each individual would have only less than ten percent
chance of survival (see "Monument In Our Midst
Calls For Extermination of 9/10ths of World Population").
Of course, we can be sure
that those people who put up this structure, or support its tenets, won’t
volunteer for extermination. Christians, in particular, can be sure that they
will be targeted. The monument’s fourth principle is to "Rule Passion,
Faith, Tradition and all Things with Tempered Reason." Under this principle, if
a Catholic takes his Faith to the public domain, as he is bound to do under
conscience, he could very well be judged as not having subjected his "faith" to
"tempered reason."
What of the future?
We do not know which nations
will be annihilated from the face of the earth if the Consecration of Russia
continues to be delayed. Our own nation could be one of them. Thousands of
nuclear warheads exist throughout the world. Russia and Communist China, which
are allies, both regard the United States as their enemy. While the nuclear
warheads in Russia and China – or those possessed by other countries
– may not be currently aimed at the United States, they could be aimed
there within two minutes.
In her interview with Father
Fuentes, (see "Published Testimony:
Father Fuentes (1957)") Sister Lucy stated, "many times the Most Holy
Virgin told my cousins as well as myself, that many nations will disappear from
the face of the earth, that Russia will be the instrument of chastisement
chosen by Heaven to punish the whole world if we do not beforehand obtain the
conversion of that poor nation. ..." The results of the Pope and the bishops
failing to consecrate Russia have affected all of us; and until it is done, we
will continue to experience God’s chastisement. Only the Consecration of
Russia can prevent the annihilation and chastisements that yet await us.
Therefore, our own lives and the lives of our friends and family members are at
stake. Truly, our fate and the fate of the world depend upon the Consecration
of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
