Our Lady of Medjugorje EXPOSED!
by David J. Stewart
Just
as with the
hoax of Fatima, the Catholic religion is up to it's old tricks again,
deceiving the masses with alleged apparitions of Mary. Oh how foolish
and wicked is the world. The Word of God NEVER leads us to recognize
Mary in any way. Jesus NEVER said that Mary would return to guide us.
Jesus plainly taught in John 16:13, "Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is
come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of
himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew
you things to come." Mary is NOT a "He!" It is the Holy Spirit of
God Whom Jesus said would teach and guide us, NOT mother Mary, NOT the saints.
1st John 2:27 we read, "But the anointing which ye have received of him
abideth in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same
anointing teacheth you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as
it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him." Oh how foolish are
the one billion people who follow the damnable heresies of the Catholic
religion. I plead with you as a loving friend, come out of the Great
Whore of Catholicism!!! Don't take my word for it, read the Bible, God's
Word, for yourself. I have received many letters from former Catholics
thanking me for helping them see the truth about the evils of Catholicism.
I hope to hear from you as well.
What is Medjugorje?
"...my most beloved son [...]
whom I have chosen for these times!"
August 25, 1994 message from Our Lady of Medjugorje
"In the heart of Herzegovina, in the former
Yugoslavia, there is a Croatian village of a thousand souls nestled between
two hills, Krizevac and Podbrdo (the name “Medjugorje” means “between the
mountains”). The people, all hard-working country folk making their
living from the soil, barely managed to survive by growing tobacco and grapes.
Until recently they lived in a state of political repression under the eagle
eye of the omnipresent Communist militia. The parish church was in the hands
of the fiery Franciscan priest, Fr. Jozo Zovko.
On June 24, 1981, the Feast of St. John the Precursor, the village was thrown
into turmoil by an extraordinary happening. A few teenagers were walking along
the path by Podbrdo hill when they saw a shining silhouette of a lady holding
a baby in her arms. The next day she returned and revealed her identity: “I am
the Blessed Virgin Mary.” The group of 6 visionaries was then formed
definitively and consisted of Marija Pavlovic, Vicka Ivankovic, Mirjana
Dragicevic, Ivanka Ivankovic, Ivan Dragicevic, and Jakov Colo.

Every day the Gospa (the Croatian word for Our Lady) reappeared, giving the
children “messages” for themselves, for the parish, and for the world:
messages of peace and the need for conversion and love in order to bring back
to the Heart of God our poor humanity lost in darkness so far from the Lord!
Since 1987 these messages have been given once a month. The Gospa also gives
each visionary certain secrets which will be revealed through the intermediary
of a priest chosen by the visionary, at a time the Gospa decides.
Father Jozo quickly came to believe in the apparitions for he saw Our Lady
himself one day in the church. The Bishop of Mostar, Monsignor Zanic, at first
believed too, but later was convinced that the whole thing had been cooked up
by the Franciscans. A rift then developed which exists today.
In 1986 Monsignor Zanic provided Cardinal Ratzinger with a negative report on
the apparitions, but the Cardinal removed Zanic from the case and gave the
investigation over to a new Commission formed of Yugoslavian bishops with
Monsignor Komarica (from Banja Luka) at its head. This Commission is open to
further developments and has not concluded its investigations.
In April 1991 this Commission officially accepted Medjugorje as a place of
prayer, and authorized it as a place of worship. Private pilgrimages are
authorized there. On August 21, 1996, Doctor Navarro Valls, the spokesman for
the Holy See, made explicit the position of Rome: “You cannot say people
cannot go there until it has been proven false. This has not been said, so
anyone can go if they want” (CNS Publication, August 21, 1996). “When Catholic
faithful go anywhere, they are entitled to spiritual care, so the Church does
not forbid priests to accompany lay-organized trips to Medjugorje in
Bosnia-Herzegovina,” he added.
Since June 25, 1981, more than 20 million pilgrims have come to this little
village to pray and experience conversion, making Medjudorje one of the most
frequented sanctuaries in the entire world." -SOURCE
Jesus' Mother Does NOT Visit the Earth!
A quote from the book, Visions of the Children by Janice T. Connell, reads...
“How could anyone face Jesus at the personal judgment knowing his mother was visiting the earth without having gone to call on her.”
Who says that Jesus' mother has ever visited the earth since her death? There is NO Biblical teaching concerning Mary's return. The Word of God does NOT recognize Jesus mother in any way. Mary was simply a vessel used by God to bring Christ into this world. Luke 1:28 reads, "And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women." Mary was no more than sinful woman! Romans 3:10 and 3:23 teach that ALL men and women are sinful. Romans 3:10 reads, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one." Mary was born with a sinful nature just as was Herod or any other human being. So why do Catholics recognize Mary? The Bible does NOT! Don't you think if Mary was as great and wonderful as the Catholic religion makes her out to be that the Word of God would do the same? God never said anything good about Mary. Jesus Christ NEVER made one statement in the entire Bible which honored or elevated his earthly mother. Not one! It is wicked blasphemy for the Catholic church to elevate Mary in any way, let alone to the level of co-redeemer as they have woefully done. The blasphemous Catholic religion even goes as far as to portray the "Blessed Virgin Mary" with scares in her hands...as if she died for our sins with Christ. Are you foolish enough to buy into the blatant lie of a Satan that Mary had a part in our redemption?
The above article reports that over 20,000,000
people have come in a pilgrimage to visit the little town of Medjugorje since
1981 because of the alleged appearance of the Queen of Heaven. The
Catholic church openly calls their "Blessed Virgin Mary" the "Queen of
Heaven." This term is Satanic and originates in Babylonian paganism,
"The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women
knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour
out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger"
-Jeremiah 7:18. The Queen of Heaven was worshipped by the Babylonians,
and Catholics still worship her today. This is definitely NOT the Mary
of the Bible, the mother of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The pagan
Mary of the Catholic church is referred to as the "Great Whore" in Revelation
19:2. Her children are the apostate protestant religions (such as
Lutheranism) which still teach the damnable sacraments, baptismal
regeneration, consubstantiation, that ministers can forgive sins, etc.
Lutherans even believe that Jesus had to
get Mary's permission before
coming incarnate to the earth...a lie!
The Medjugorje Rosary is Satanic!
There is even a
Medjugorje rosary (pictured to the left). Notice the Medjugorje center
in the rosary.
Rosaries are sinful.
"You can pray a million rosaries and trust Our Lady of Fatima (Mary) with all your heart, but you WILL go straight to hell when you die and face the judgments of God. God sent His Son into the world to pay the price, the ransom, for our many sins. Jesus Christ has made salvation available to all men, all you need to do is to forsake your false religion, and place 100% of your faith in Christ alone, not the Great Whore of Catholicism. By the way, Mary (Jesus' mother) is not the great Whore, Mary of the Roman catholic church is the Great Whore. Roman Catholicism has created a MONSTER out of Mary that is all a big lie. False doctrines such as "the assumption of Mary, "the "Immaculate Conception of Mary," and Mary's "Perpetual Virginity" are fictitious lies of the devil nowhere found in the Bible." -From the article, The Rosary is Blasphemy Against God!
The Word of God never directs us to pray using repeat chants as are done in the rosary. There is nothing more heartbreaking to a child of God, than to see a bunch of lifeless nuns chanting over and over in monotone repetitious nonsense. Are you so foolish as to believe that this kind of praying pleases God? Please let me share what the Word of God teaches concerning the matter. Jesus said in Matthew 6:7, "But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking." All those nuns are wasting their time. They "think" that God is pleased with such religious ceremonialism, but He is NOT! God wants us to pray from the heart, NOT from a prayer book, NOT from a piece of paper, and certainly NOT in a rosary ceremony of vain repetitions. Vain repetitions are sinful according to the Bible. So many people have Churchianity without Christianity, religion without Truth.
Jesus plainly taught in John 2:24 that the only way to worship God acceptably is in spirit and Truth. In "spirit" simply means that NO unbeliever can acceptably fellowship or worship God. A man or woman must be born again in order to be in the spirit. This is the only way for our dead spirit to be made alive again...through Jesus Christ. Also, Jesus said that we must worship God in Truth. This means that we must study, learn, and follow the Word of God. No man can find God apart from the Word of God. Oh how foolish it is for anyone to seek God when the Bible cries aloud for anyone to listen to It's eternal message. The Old Testament Book of declares in Proverb 1:20 that wisdom crieth in the streets for someone to listen. Titus 2:11 declares that the grace of God which brings salvation has appeared unto all men. Thus, we are all without excuse. Psalm 19:1-3 teaches that even the heavens declare God's Goodness. Romans 1:2o reads, "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse." No one will be able to justly point their finger at God on judgment day and accuse God of being unfair. The very creation around us cries out for us to seek after the Truth of God. Yet Jesus tells us why men don't...
"Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition." -Mark 7:7-9
How much more clear could the Word of God be? God hates traditions and religions that keep people from coming to Jesus to be saved. Oh sure, every false religion speaks about Jesus as if He were a great person, but the power of God is NOT there. Romans 1:16 declares, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." What is the "power of God"? It is the GOSPEL! 2nd Timothy 3:5 speaks of those religious people who, "Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away." These are religious people without Christ. These are the staunch Catholics who follow the traditions of Catholicism instead of the inspired Word of God. These are the people who have NOT obeyed the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Bible tells us the end of such fools, " In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power" -2nd Thessalonians 1:8-9.
Our Lady of Medjugorje is a Hoax!
Anyone can say anything, but that doesn't mean it is truth. Just as with the proven Hoax of Fatima, so also is Medjugorje a hoax. It's amazing how gullible people are. One billion Catholics have been brainwashed to believe that whatever the Pope says is the gospel Truth. But the Bible proclaims in Romans 3:4, "...let God be true, but every man a liar..." The Word of God NEVER mentions anything about apparitions from saints who have died and gone into eternity. The only mention of such an experience n the Bible is when Saul sought help from the witch of Endor to summons the prophet Samuel form the dead. Although some theologians believe that Samuel did return from the dead, I think not. 1st Samuel 28:23 tells us that the witch "...saw gods ascending out of the earth." This certainly does not sound of God. Also, we read in verse 15, "...God is departed from me, and answereth me no more, neither by prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee..." God had ceased from hearing Saul because of the hardness of Saul's heart. Saul failed to repent, just as Judas. In desperation and rebellion, Saul sins further by consulting a witch. Thus, I do not believe that God would succumb to Saul's continued sinful ways. Nor do I believe that God would be involved with witchcraft.
Likewise, I believe that the only apparitions occurring today are of a Satanic origin. Please read Satan's Miracles. The Bible NEVER tells us to expect any such visitors from the dead. Mary was a human being, she died, she went to Heaven, and she CANNOT come back to appear. Did Peter ever return? How about John the Baptist, the greatest man born amongst women? The Word of God NEVER calls Mary the greatest woman born amongst women. Jesus even rebuked Mary in John 2:4 by exclaiming, "Woman, what have I to do with thee?" That doesn't sound like a nice way to talk the the "blessed virgin" does it? Furthermore, Mary did NOT remain a virgin!!! Mary and just were married, they had other children together. The damnable Catholic religion actually denies this. Luke 2:41-42 teaches us that Joseph and Mary were still together, twelve years after Christ's birth (Jesus was now 12 according to verse 42). Are you going to tell me that Joseph and Mary lived together but never consummated the marriage? I didn't think so. Mary is NOT the "perpetual virgin" that Catholics foolish are taught. Mary did NOT remain a virgin.
Our Lady of Medjugorje is a big hoax mainly because the Word of God condemns such nonsense. For anyone to believe in such an appearance of Mary is sacrilegious against the Word of God. I want to make it very clear that the Bible DOESN'T teach anything about appearances of Mary, or any other saint. Even Jesus Himself doesn't make physical appearance today. Acts 1:11 reads, "...this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven." When Jesus returns, It will be just as when He left...physically. For now, we have the Holy Spirit of God within our bodies to comfort, guide, teach, rebuke, chastise, and love us (John 14:16). We don't need the sacraments to nourish us, that's what the Word of God does (1st Peter 2:2). We don't need the Catholic catechism to teach us, we just need the Word of God and the Holy Spirit in our heart (1st John 2:27). Even if there were some type of "proof" that something supernatural happened at Medjugorje (which there isn't), we must keep in mind that Satan's magicians in Moses' day also performed miracles. What you need to do is READ THE BIBLE! Catholicism CANNOT coexist with the Word of God, for they are directly and diametrically opposed to each other. Here's a list of Catholic heresies.
I didn't write this article to be unkind, but to humbly warn you that Catholicism is a sure road to Hell. The rosary is a demonic practice. The Word of God does NOT teach sacraments. We are forbidden from calling any man Rabbi, Father, or Master (Matthew 23:8-10). 1st Timothy 4:3 warns of false prophets who would forbid priests to marry. We are also warned in the same verse about heretics who who forbid us from eating certain meats on certain days. Can't you see friend, the Catholic religion mocks every command of God? They've even removed the second commandment. I pray with all my heart that you will come to the knowledge of Jesus Christ (of the Word of God) and forsake the blasphemous Catholic whore who has corrupted billions. Have you ever been born again?
Catholicism is a lie of the devil. If I didn't sincerely care about people, then I wouldn't take the time to WARN you. The Catholic religion is all a bunch of Satanic lies based upon traditions and ridiculous manipulations of the Word of God. I plead with you as a friend, obey the Bible by turning to the Lord Jesus Christ in faith and forsaking the Mother of Harlots. The Great Whore of the Catholic Church will take you to hell with them if you're foolish enough to follow them. Don't do it. Salvation is NOT found in a religion, but in a Person--the Lord Jesus Christ! You need Christianity friend, NOT churchianity.
