The Chastisement

(The fourth of the Great Events prophesied at Garabandal)

·The Virgin Mary first spoke of the future chastisement in the Secret of
La Salette, revealed in 1858.

·The Third Secret of Fatima, made known in 2000, portrayed an Angel touching the earth with a flaming sword.

·The First Message at Garabandal in 1961 speaks of a "very great punishtment" and said, "The cup is filling up." The Second Message in 1965 said, "Now it is overflowing."

·Conchita described the Chastisement as something "very, very great in keeping with what we deserve."

·She stated, "The Chastisement is conditional and depends on whether on not mankind heeds the messages of the
Blessed Virgin and the Miracle."

·"If it should take place, I know of what it will consist because the Blessed Virgin told me about it, but I am not permitted to say what it is."

·"I have seen the Chastisement. I can assure you that it is worse than being enveloped in fire, worse than having fire above and beneath you."
"I do not know how much time will pass between the Miracle and the Chastisement."

·The Secret of Fatima began with a vision of hell. It showed souls in a vast sea af fire with flames coming from within them. The souls had no control of their movements, being defenseless to protect themselves from demons there to torment them.

·The Chastisement foretold at Garabandal should be dreaded because it has similarities to Sodom and Gomorrah and a world wide scale.

·But infinitely more to be dreaded is what follows the Chastisement, for then the souls will be cast into hell, there to endure forever the fate shown in the vision of hell.
