This is a video by Dr. Mark Miravalle, a professor and author I have followed for over two decades. I have the utmost respect for his work and studied many of his books, some of which I quoted in my articles and own books. I found this video today and learned a number of things that moved me to do some thinking. I have often quoted from the visions and messages of Marie-Julie Jahenny, a stigmatist from France (MJJ for short). I always thought (wrongly) that her visions and messages have been approved by the Church. I also thought that no prophecies of MJJ were known to have failed. Well, I was misinformed, wrong, mistaken. For example, MJJ predicted her death would happen on Friday when in reality she died on a Tuesday (cf. Deuteronomy 18:22) Her visions and prophecies were never approved by the same Catholic Church that approved the apparitions of Our Blessed Mother at Fatima in 1917. MJJ is a Fatima contemporary. She died in 1941. She was born only a few years after the apparitions of La Salette (1846).
Thank you, Dr. Miravalle for your research. I leave you with Dr. Mark Miravalle’s video who will expand on this and other related topics no one should miss.
A PERSONAL NOTE:
I have read about the prophecies of MJJ about the Three Days of Darkness. Reading those writings I was intrigued about a detail. MJJ declares only candles made of beeswax “not mixed with any other substance” (such as paraffin or other solid combustible) will give light during those dreadful days.
It seemed remarkable to me that God would require such a rare —and at times expensive— material. After all, the Sacraments of the Church require simple things like water, flour, wine, oil and none of those are subject to such level of purity. Now that I hear the comments by Dr. Miravalle, I see that my reservations were not out of line. I can also see why the Church waited to approve MJJ’s visions to this day.
