Catholic Prophecy

Description

Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich's 13 May 1820 "two popes" prophecy ([ *The Life and Revelations of Anne Catherine Emmerich* vol. 2](https://isidore.co/calibre/#panel=book_details&book_id=4146) pp. 227ff.), p. 60 (PDF/DjVu p. 61):> ¶53.1 *May 13, 1820.* “I saw also the relationship between the two popes … I saw how baleful would be the consequences of this false church. I saw it increase in size; heretics of every kind came into the city (of Rome). The local clergy grew lukewarm, and I saw a great darkness … Then, the vision seemed to extend on every side. Whole Catholic communities were being oppressed, harassed, confined, and deprived of their freedom. I saw many churches close down, great miseries everywhere, wars and bloodshed. A wild and ignorant mob took to violent action. But it did not last long.> ¶53.2 “Once more I saw that the Church of Peter was undermined by a plan evolved by the secret sect, while storms were damaging it. But I saw also that help was coming when distress had reached its peak. I saw again the Blessed Virgin ascend on the Church and spread her mantle [over it]. I saw a Pope who was at once gentle, and very firm … I saw a great renewal, and the Church rose high in the sky.”
