The SUSPECT LIST
Here you will find listed the SUSPECT, DUBIOUS, MISATTRIBUTED, and FAKE / HOAX Great Catholic Monarch and Angelic Pontiff Prophecy texts that I have not put into the Timeline.
The list also includes HERETICAL TEACHINGS, and mystics and apparitions NOT APPROVED by the ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.
Also, the list below has mystics or apparitions that have not been ruled on yet, but show they are promoting HERESIES or contain SERIOUS DOCTRINAL ERRORS that contradict the teaching of the Roman Catholic Church, and therefore cannot be supernatural and are not included in the Timeline.
Anything that also looks like it has serious red flags will be included here as well.
:::::::::::::::::::::::
:::::::::::::::::::::::
HOW I DISCERN WHAT TO INCLUDE HERE: the
foremost rule when weeding out the fakes is 1) if they have they
already been condemned by the Church. 2) If not yet condemned, do they
or their messages break any of the major signs that the Church uses to
identify a fake mystic? (Click here to see the guidelines the Church uses). 3) Does the new mystic preach anything denounced as a heresy or a doctrinal error by the Church? 4) Are there any strange 'oddities' or illogical statements in the messages that are not Catholic or part of Catholic tradition? 5) Is the mystic humble and obedient to the local bishop / Church rulings, do any prophecy they give comes true, or, do they show signs of a fake mystic - i.e. are they proud, disobedient, haughty, and / or caught out in lies or fake prophecies that fail to come true? (Click here to see more on this point - 'How Can We be Careful and not Fall for Fake Visions?')
Basically,
if one pays attention to these details, it is not hard to uncover a fake: if
a mystic goes against the Catholic interpretation of the Bible, tries to 're-write the Bible', or tries to say the 'Church interpreted that wrong', contradicts Church teachings or dogma, or goes against the teachings of the Doctors and Fathers of the Church, also, contradicts authentic mystics in major ways, they are fake.
You can also spot fake mystics if their messages are illogical, lack intelligent or theological reason, or blatantly contradict themselves, contain 'New Age Babble' or non-Catholic terminology, or attempt to invent fake sacramentals that promise to give more than the most important graces the sacraments or the sacramentals give, for example, if they make their 'newly revealed' sacramentals give out more graces that seem more important than Baptism, Confirmation, Confession, the Mass, the Rosary, the Brown Scapular, etc.
There
are also cases of textual and letter hoaxes, forgeries, or texts that don't apply to the future Great Monarch but 'cobbled up' to make it look like they are, etc - these can be spotted through simple
academic text research as well as using the list above to discern.
My
main sources for discernment are the Traditional Douay-Rheims Bible, and the
excellent catechism from the 1890s by Spirago and Clarke entitled:
"The Catechism Explained: An Exhaustive Explanation of the Catholic
Religion".
Below is a list synopsis-- click on the BOLD TITLE HEADINGS to see more information for each one.
:::::::::::::::::::::::
:::::::::::::::::::::::
(*) TIMING and the REIGN of the ANTICHRIST: shows what the Catholic Teaching is on this subject and how to spot a fake mystic when they deviate from the traditionally accepted teachings.
(*) LITERAL INTERPRETATIONS of the 1000 YEARS REIGN in the Book of the APOCALYPSE: literal interpretations of the number 1000 have been declared heretical, and this includes any attempt to interpret the Age of Peace as lasting a literal 1,000 years. According to the traditional Douay-Rheims bible, the Roman Catholic Church has taught the number is symbolic, not literal. Literal interpretations are usually found in gnostic heretical documents, also those who expand on the condemned heresies of Chiliasm and Millenarianism. Fake mystics can be spotted when they attempt literal interpretations of the 1,000 years and apply it to the Age of Peace, or even the New Heaven and the New Earth. More information on the right teaching here.
(*) REVELATIONS OF ANGEL NAMES NOT IN THE BIBLE / NAMING YOUR GUARDIAN ANGEL, etc. : Easy way to spot a fake apparition or mystic. The Church teaches we may only call upon the names of Sts. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael as they have been revealed to us by God in Scripture. Any other name can be a suggestion given by a demon, or come from occult Jewish Cabala, and, naming our angel ourselves is wrong as we do not have the authority over our angels to do so. God reserves authority over the angels and reserves their names to Himself. A true mystic of God will not encourage anyone to go against the teachings of the Church, so when a fake mystic tries to reveal unknown angel names, or gets you to try and name your angel, etc -- they are fake. Could be the demons speaking through the fake mystics and giving out their names, etc.
(*) UNIVERSAL "ILLUMINATION OF CONSCIENCE" EVENT: according to the prophecies of Ven. Bernardo Maria Clausi, apparently this concept is very suspect and even points to fake prophecies and mystics. A lot of not yet approved apparitions and fake mystics promote this, which is another sign in itself.
(*) AUGUST 5th as the 'REAL' DATE of OUR LADY'S BIRTHDAY: sign of a red flag - the August date contradicts ancient pious tradition, credible visions and accounts of miracles confirming that September 8th is the true birthday of Our Lady.
(*) ST. NILUS '4th Century Prophecy' - 19th/ 20th century text, not by St. Nilus of Mt. Sinai the 4th century. And, the text was condemned by the Orthodox as a fake in 1912. The original books from which it was taken contains errors, and the prophecy contains failed predictions regarding the Antichrist.
(*) ST. AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO (354-430 AD) - Misattribution - prophetic commentary actually by Monk Adso.
-
(*) ST. ODILE '8th century Prophecies'- 20th Century hoax.
(*) LEO 'THE PHILOSOPHER' (865-911 AD)- originally not a Great Monarch prophecy, Leo practised occult divination, and, the text also shows signs of 12th-century manipulation.
(*) POPE LEO VI (914- 928 AD) --Misattribution, actually by Leo 'The Philosopher' above.
(*) HEPIDANUS of ST. GALLEN (c.1010 / 1034 - c. 1072 /1088 AD) - evidence of 19th century hoax / forgery.
(*) ST. ANSELM of CANTERBURY (1033- 1109 AD) - Misattribution - originally by Monk Adso.
(*) JOHN of JERUSALEM / JEHAN de VÉZELAY (1042 -1119 ) - 20th Century hoax based on Masonic Templar legends. Promotes a Masonic New Age ideal of the Age of Peace.
(*) ST. MALACHY and the 'BLACK POPE' or 'CAPUT NIGRUM' PROPHECY' (c. 1094-1148) - St. Malachy is real, the prophecies attributed to him are apparently credible to point, except for the 'Caput Nigrum' or 'Black Pope Prophecy' which has lately been attributed to him. This was part of a plot in a fictional novel published in 2001, which people are now spreading as a real 'lost prophecy' of St. Malachy. There is no basis in historical fact St. Malachy made a 'black pope' prophecy.
(*) 'BISHOP CHRISTIANOS of AGEDA' (AGREDA) - (1172-1204 AD) -18th Century English Protestant hoax, possibly an 'April Fool's' forgery published as a 'sequel prank' in response to another April Fool's hoax.
(*) ST. ANGELUS (ANGEL) OF JERUSALEM (1185- c. 1222 ?) - a real saint, but the Great Monarch prophecies attributed to him are either an inventive fabrication attributed to a 14th-century writer named Henoch, and / or, could be a misattribution, the prophecies possibly taken from the 'Opus Davidicum' (1497) by Angelus Terzonis de Legonissa.
(*) 'THE BOOK of the BEE' - BISHOP SOLOMON (SHELÊMON) (c. 1222 AD) - book by a heretical Nestorian bishop - therefore not a trustworthy source.
(*) CAESARIUS of HEISTERBACH (c. 1180 - c. 1240)- Misattribution, evidence it is originally the 'Vatiguerro Prophecy'.
(*) 'JOHANNES FRIEDE' (1204-1257) - 20th Century hoax, also, possibly originating from a hallucination, or occult clairvoyant episodes.
(*) !? 'The LEHNIN PROPHECY' - "ABBOT HERMANN of LEHNIN" (c. 1300s) - an obvious 17th-century forgery. Unfortunately, this is still circulated on the internet.
(*) POPE BENEDICT XII (1285-1342) - Misattribtued prophecy- originally attributed to Bl. Joachim of Fiore.
(*) The 'CEDAR OF LEBANON' PROPHECY (c- 1239-1287, 1347 AD) - old astronomy prophecy foretelling the invasion of the Mongolian invaders chopped and changed over the centuries to make it relevant to the times and therefore not a real prophecy.
(*) DOLCINO / DULCINUS (14th Century) - Angelic Pontiff prophecy twisted by a
heretical sedevacantist priest and his followers influenced by the prophecies of Bl
Joachim de Fiori, and the heretic, Segarelli. His own prophecies proved false, and his anti-papal movement turned violent, people were butchered. He was burned at the stake in 1307. Not an authentic prophet.
(*) BROTHER JOHN of the CLEFT ROCK (b. 1310? died c. 1366-1370 AD) - the monk Johannes Rupecisa, one of the first medieval monks to promote the heretical literal interpretation of the 1000 year reign mentioned in the Apocalypse. He is also known as Jean de
Roquetaillade, his prophecies are just commentaries based on alchemical divination, and, his writings were condemned by the Church as fake. Not authentic prophecy.
(*) TELESPHORUS of COSENZA (d. 1388)- pseudo-pen name assumed by an anonymous monk attached to the heretical 'Fraticelli' during the Western Schism of the medieval period. Prophecies include influences from the heretical 'Brother John of the Cleft Rock'. The text was further chopped and adapted to the times. Not authentic.
(*) !? ST. HILARION THE GREAT OF CZENSTOCHAU / (291-371 AD) & 'MONK HILARION' (d. 1476): evidence it is a pseudo-prophecy originally attributed to Bl. Joachim de Fiori further misattributed to St. Hilarion the Great, and also the orthodox 'Monk Hilarion'.
(*) BL. JOHANNES AMADEUS da SILVA (1420-1482) - evidence this might be a pseudo prophecy attributed to him, the prophecy is in a book later condemned by the Church, also contains a failed prophecy and other details it is fake.
(*) ST. NICHOLAS of FLUE 'PROPHECY' (1417-1487) -- Misattributed. Originally by Cardinal Nicholas of Cusa and Dionsius Rycke. Basically, a 'prophecy' cobbled together from two different sources.
(*) BL. THÉOLOPHRE (THEOLOPHIS / THEOPHILUS / (16th Century) - Misattributed. Prophetic 'Angelic Pontiff Speech to the Great Monarch on his coronation' is also an obvious forgery or hoax as the name of the prophet originates from another fake prophet, Telephorus of Cosenza.
(*) CHRONICLE OF MAGDEBURG (c. early 16th century) - attributed to a court astrologer named Johann Carion (1499-1537). Evidence this prediction was based as older prophecies and made to fit the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V at the time in the hope he was the expected Great Monarch. Not an authentic, original prophecy.
(*) JOHANNES LICHTENBERGER (d. 1503) --Astrologer. Not an original prophecy- a borrowing of the 'Birch Tree Prophecies' of Germany with a prophecy attributed to Bl Joachim de Fiori added, with typo added.
(*) JACQUES (JOAQUIM) MERLIN (c. 1480 - 1541) -- credited with a prophecy originally attributed to Bl. Joachim de Fiori.
(*) The 'PROPHECY OF ORVAL' (1544) -- 19th century hoax written in the style of Nostradamus by a priest who eventually confessed to what he did when he saw the joke get out of hand. Too late. Damage was done. People still fall for this one.
(*) 'GIORGIO (GEORGE) VARENS' (1533)-- fake / hoax prophecy against the 'secret sects', aka the Freemasons, created with a name change. The original text was actually taken from an anti-Catholic sermon against the Jesuit Order by the Protestant archbishop of Dublin, George Brown, infamous for burning the crozier of St. Patrick.
(*) NOSTRADAMUS (1503-1566) - Admitted to using pagan style astrology and pagan (demonic!) divination practices in his so-called predictions. Admitted he was not a prophet, and based his predictions when future events would happen on previous prophecies not written by him at all. He literally called upon demons, in his case, the python spirit, to try and find out when past prophecies were to come to pass. He also admitted there was no way to interpret 'his' renderings of the prophecies - definitely signs of a fake when a prophecy cannot be understood or deciphered. Also, contradicts St. Paul and Church teaching regarding the Antichrist, and, his end-time predictions regarding the Age of Peace is according to the Millenarian Heresy. False prophet the world continues to lap up.
(*) DAVID PAREAUS (POREAUS) (1548-1622) --Protestant theologian making a mocking false description of the Great Monarch and non-prophetical comments on a Great Monarch prophecy, not credible as a real prophecy.
(*) 'MOTHER SHIPTON' (c. 1641-)-- legendary witch in England with no proof she ever existed. Many of the prophecies attributed to her are proved hoaxes from a later period. People still continue to fall for them and spread them.
(*) RUDOLPH GEKNER / RODOLPHO GAULTIER / GELTHIER (1675 ?) -- Protestant pastor / theologian with a Great Monarch prophecy attributed to him, and, interest in the Great Monarch focuses on a 'Protestant' king bringing corrupt Rome to the Reformed (Protestant!) Faith. Could be a hoax based on the hoax-text of the 'Bishop of Ageda'. Obviously, not credible.
(*) ST. IGNATIUS of SANTHIA (1686 - 1770) -- Misattribution - originally appears to be the 'Capuchin Friar' prophecy that first appeared in an Italian book known to mix up real prophecies with fakes. Not credible.
(*) MARIA-LAACH 'PROPHECY' (c. mid. 1700s)-- appears to be a 20th hoax prophecy addressed to Hitler, possibly with the aim of influencing him.
(*) 'CAPUCHIN FRIAR' PROPHECY (1776?) - too many red flags to be a credible prophecy
(*) 'BLESSED' REMBORDT (REMBORD / REMBOLD) the 'MONK' (1689-1793) --Misattributed - Rembold is not a Blessed, nor was he a monk. He was the German folk-seer Bernard Rembord 'Spielbahn' of the 'Birch Tree' Prophetic tradition. There is an element of credibility to his 'Birch Tree Prophecies', this was just misattributed.
(*) BL. ANNE CATHERINE EMMERICK - the 'EMPEROR HENRY' VISION (1774-1824)--mistaken to be a Great Catholic Monarch prophecy of 'Henry', the king named in Marie-Julie's prophecies, when in fact this is a vision she had of the medieval Holy Roman Emperor Henry II of Germany. Real vision, just not the right King.
(*) The 'NURSING NUN' of BELLEY / BELLAY (c. 1810-1830) --signs of a hoax inspired by Sr. Bertina (Bertine) Bouguillon (Boquillon).
(*) The 'NUN of LYELBE' (c. 1823-1829) ----another fake text, apparently a spin-off of the 'Nursing Nun of Belley / Bellay'.
(*) THOMAS MARTIN, "MARTIN OF GALLARDON" (1783-1834) - French peasant hoaxer who claimed to have visions of St. Raphael, the archangel disguising himself in a frock coat and top hat. Latter visions against Louis XVIII became more extreme, and, Martin supported a fake pretender to the French throne, which finally revealed the hoax.
(*) "BUG de MILHAS" (MILHAUS) (d. 1843)--fake prophecy published in a Spanish horoscope mass market chapbook. Not credible.
(*) MADELEINE PORSAT (PORZAT / POISAT) (c. 1843-1870s) ---no proof she existed, signs of a hoax / forgery. Contains failed prophecy due to a misreading of the St. Malachy prophecies, also, apparently gave the first ever recorded mention of an 'Illumination of Conscience' event - sign of a suspect prophecy.
(*) FÉRE ANTOINE (BROTHER ANTHONY), of AIX-LA-CHAPELLE (1871)-- The 'Birch Tree' prophecy attributed to him is a forgery.
(*) MARIE JOSSEAUME BERGADIUE 'BERGUILLE' (1873- c. 1875):--'stigmatic mystic' with fake miracles, her main prophecy concerning who would be the Angelic Pontiff proved completely false and she was condemned by the Church. Very problematic as her visions and fake miracles instilled disobedience with certain members of clergy to the point her fake visions were obviously demonic tactics meant to discredit and impede the causes of true mystics, especially Marie-Julie Jahenny and those inspired by Jahenny's visions and mission, such as Ven. Madre Theresa of Peru whose process of canonization is still open.
(*) ST. BERNADETTE of LOURDES - '1879 LETTER to POPE LEO XIII' and also the "BERNDAETTE SOUBIROUS PROPHECIES" - "FIVE SECRETS OF ST: BERNADETTE", etc --- proven to be completely fake. They are 20th century forgeries.
(*) MELANIE CALVAT: - 'ROME WILL BECOME THE SEAT OF THE ANTICHRIST': -- this detail problematic. (Click her name for more details.)
(*) PALMA MARIA MATTARELLI D'ORIA (1825-1888): -- 'stigmatic mystic', some prophecies proved fake, the fruits of her visions were 'disordered', she was eventually condemned by the Church.
(*) VISIONS of EZQUIOGA, Basque Country, Spain (1931 --) --- condemned by the Church.
(*) LUISA PICCARRETTA and the 'DIVINE WILL' - (1865-1947) - while some of her books were given approval, several of her writings condemned by the Church and placed on the Index of Forbidden books due to doctrinal errors - and never officially approved. One of the doctrinal errors is it promotes the condemned heresy of Quietism regarding the action of God's will in a soul. Requests to begin her beatification process were twice denied due to the doctrinal errors in her writings. Her beatification process has since been officially suspended in January 2024 due to the doctrinal errors. The process has since resumed as of August 2024, but there are also signs of disordered / demonic perversions in her visions. Currently, too many red flags with this mystic.
(*) IDA PEERDEMAN - 'LADY OF ALL NATIONS' (1945-1959) - NOT SUPERNATURAL- visions no longer recognized by the Church. A woman from the Netherlands claimed to see Our Lady who wished to be known the 'Lady of All Nations' and that she be known as the Advocate, Mediatrix, and Co-Redeemer. Former Bishop Punt of Haarlam had approved this vision, but it was again OVERTURNED by the local bishop Johannes Hendriks, December 20, 2020. Under the new rules for the examination of apparitions set forth July 2024, the Vatican has now OFFICIALLY DECLARED as of July 11, 2024, that these apparitions are NOT SUPERNATURAL.
(*) TERESITA CASTILLO, 'MEDIATRIX OF ALL GRACE', LIPA, PHILIPPINES (1948 --) Declared NOT SUPERNATURAL by Pope Pius XII in 1951, a decision that was DEFINITIVE and FINAL as a pope decreed on it - Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith has declared Archbishop Raymond C
Arguelles' 'approval' in September 2015 NULL AND VOID as he had no authority to overturn a papal decision. The Archbishop has recognised his approval was null and void and made a statement in May 2016 declaring his former approval null and void and has disbanded any further investigation into the apparitions. The Vatican confirmed again in March 2024 that Pius XII decreed this vision was not supernatural. This Decree is in effect.
(*) ST. PADRE PIO - 'THREE DAYS OF DARKNESS' PROPHECY / LETTER (1950) -also "12 MESSAGES FROM JESUS"- and similar COMING CHASTISEMENT PROPHECIES ---Forgery. St. Padre Pio himself said he never made this prophecy, never intended to make such prophecies, and said to put his name to it is a forgery.
(*) SR. MARY EPHREM NEUZIL ' OUR LADY OF AMERICA' (1956-1959):--Visions recently officially condemned by the Church as 'not supernatural' and of human origin. Private devotion to Our Lady under the title of 'Our Lady of America' still permitted, but the visions themselves are not approved.
(*) WILLIAM KAMM (also WILLIAM COSTELLIA) 'LITTLE PEBBLE'- (1950 to present day):
- fake mystic using fake visions to start an 'end of the world' sex cult - formally charged with underage rape, he is formally excommunicated by the Church.
(*) APPARITIONS of GARABANDAL (1961-1965) - the most current official statement from the local bishop dating from 2022 confirms the former ruling stating the apparitions as 'Non-Constat' meaning not enough proof they came from Heaven and not supernatural in origin. This is a negative leaning ruling. The recent unofficial remarks recently made in September 2024 by Cardinal Víctor Fernández, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith indicates this ruling is still in effect, and should the new norms promulgated as of Pentecost 2024 be applied here, it is his OPINION that visions of Garabandal could receive the ruling of 'curatur', or even prohibition. Basically, the old ruling is still in effect until the local bishop intends to have them investigated under the new norms, and, the Cardinal has noted it does not look like the bishop is currently interested in doing this. So, the old ruling stands. While they are not officially fully condemned by the Church as outright 'not fully supernatural' either, i.e as something demonic, 'non-constant' is still negative and is not a 'tacit' approval. Therefore, the Church is officially leaning towards the negative on this. This is enough official notice to inform us that it would be wise to not give credence to or promote these visions until the Church declares otherwise. Also, the 'spirit of contradiction' entered into this set of apparitions, which is usually a major red flag something is wrong. I personally find them suspect due to this among other disturbing details and have therefore put them in the 'Suspect' category.
(*) FR. CONSTANT LOUIS MARIE PEL (1878-1966): - problematic. While noted to be a very holy priest, he did not make any of his own prophecies, and, was known to spread unapproved and suspicious prophecies in addition to real ones, which got him in trouble with Church authorities. We cannot be certain what is real and what isn't. Too much of a question to put in the Timeline here, (although if he does have good advice, it's been indicated in this post.)
(*) MAMA QUATTRINI (QUATRINI / QUNATRINI) of SAM DAMIANO and the 'BLESSED GRAPES', etc. (1961-1970): Condemned by the Church, contains heresies / errors, also fake sacramentals taking away focus from the Rosary, etc...first to come up with the 'Blessed Grapes' chastisement remedy, which is obviously is a demonic distraction tactic to keep people from authentic preparations as it is claimed after all the prep-work in getting the grapes, you may not be among the chosen to be 'spared' in the end, even if you eat them. Heaven does not give useless remedies Calvanist style in that those are just predestined while others are not. Sounds more like the Calvanist-Protestant concept of predestination.
(*) ST. PADRE PIO 'LETTER TO CONCHITA of GARABANDAL' (1962): Obvious forgery, contains encouragement to spread unapproved "new mysteries" of the Rosary based on the Fatima apparitions -- the apparitions are not dogma, are not based on Biblical scriptures, and we are not even required to believe in for salvation. So, how can they be made into 'new mysteries' of the Rosary? Obviously fake.
(*) ST. PADRE PIO 'FRENCH MONARCHY PROPHECIES' / "BOOK OF LOVE" revealed to LUIGI GASPARI (1968): -- strange, fake revelations claimed to have been given to him by St. Padre Pio bi-locating to him, but with no proof this ever happened. Red flag: St. Pio also 'claimed' to bring about his own death as a 'sacrifice'. Obviously not real.
(*) VERONICA LUEKEN - 'BAYSIDE APPARITIONS, NY' - (1970s - 1990s): --- condemned by the Church. Contains heresies, messages that contradict the teachings of the Church, fake prophecies that failed, revealed angel names not in Scripture that are signs of a fake, encourages people to practise an occult form of divination using manifestations shown in pictures = demonic activity.
(*) 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS CAROL "MEANING of the SYMBOLS" (1979):--Misinformation / theory that was first put forward by a scholar in 1979 with no proof this is the true meaning of the symbols and which quickly spread around as 'fact'.
(*) APPARITIONS of MEDJUGORJE, former Yugoslavia (1981 to present day): Case still open, but problematic. Still not officially approved by the Church despite allowing pilgrims attend, thus creating confusion, especially as later messages contain revelations and heresies against traditional Catholic teaching / tradition. New ruling of September 2024 simply restates permission granted to make a pilgrimage to honour Our Lady as 'Queen of Peace', but the Vatican has once again confirmed they have NOT made a ruling of 'supernatural' on this set of apparitions, and, people are NOT to take pilgrimages to visit the visionaries, but only to honour Our Lady under the title 'Queen of Peace'. Considering the heresies, errors and red flags in some of the messages, this is staying in the 'Suspect' category until the Vatican makes a formal declaration on the visions themselves.
(*) 'CARDINAL SIRI THESIS - 'POPE IN RED' THEORY (Late 1980s to present day): --theory that is now disproved by the passage of time / weight of history. Also the theory clashes with the timing and details given by authentic prophecies. Even so, this 'Theory' still used by Trad priests, also fake Trad cult leaders to rake in money from unsuspecting Trad Catholics.
(*) JULIA KIM of NAJU SOUTH KOREA (1985- to present day) -- !!! The official condemnation for this fake mystic is pretty serious. Condemned by the Church, visions / miracles officially pronounced possibly PRETERNATURAL / DEMONIC in origin. Order of EXCOMMUNICATION for ANYONE who stays with the cult that has grouped around her, and / or attends the unapproved apparition shrine for the sacraments. Furthermore, to spread the messages about her 'visions' as 'authentic' is officially declared an act of disobedience to the point of breaking unity with the Catholic Faith. Basically, anyone who knows this but continues to spread her messages puts them in serious danger of official schism / excommunication / deprivation of the Sacraments.
(*) The 'TWO PATRICKS' - 'INVITATION to LOVE JESUS MESSAGES' (1986 to present day): --- no official Church ruling yet, but obviously fake. 'Visions' used to start an Ecumenical group and charity not attached to the local Catholic diocese, an offense that can be punished with excommunication. The charity opened to 'all religions'. The visions themselves reveal heresy / doctrinal errors, and ask for money.
(*) PEDRO REGIS,. 'OUR LADY OF ANGUERA' BRAZIL (1987 to present day)--no official position from the Church yet, but obvious strange contradictions in the messages, something is 'off'.
(*) CHRISTINA GALLAGHER of ACHILL, Ireland (1988 - to present day)-----big problem here. Refused to obey the chain of authority in the Church regarding apparition investigations and tried to go over the bishop's head, which is a red flag for the Church that a vision is fake. As she is receiving large crowds of pilgrims, according to Canon Law, it is no longer just a 'private' place of worship as the local Church authority must attend to the spiritual needs of large pilgrim crowds. A visionary is required under obedience to the Church to place a public vision site attracting a considerable number of pilgrims under the authority of the Church, which also includes chapels and alms houses regularly open to the public, but she has refused. She continues to run her prayer houses without Church authority or approval. For centuries, this was an EXCOMMUNICATION OFFENSE hence this is one of the signs the Church judges by even today to see if they have a fake mystic on their hands. Her visions therefore condemned by the Church as 'not supernatural' as a result of disobedience. Also, her visions creating a 'cult of exclusivity' around the mystic based upon fear of being left out, the original 'seal of protection' available only for a limited time and would stop a certain year, (which has already 'run out' a quite a few years ago! Oops, too late for anyone living today to get the so-called seal! ) The expiration date on this and the passage of time shows the prophecies must be fake as we've lived well past when the protection was 'available', and the major chastisements have not come yet. For instance, how many of the elderly who got this 'seal' have already passed on and never 'needed' it? Now, no one can get it according to her. However, she's invented a 'lesser' form of the 'seal' in order to keep the whole thing going (well, because her timing didn't pan out, she had to come up with something to show her fake visions are still 'relevant' and obviously to keep her illicit houses funded). When the 'original seal' was 'still 'available', it was only with the mystic and her associated houses. Visions themselves order the so-called holy pictures needed for protection 'exclusive' so the 'Prayer Houses' get funded. (Real visions don't direct funding for a project, nor make chastisement protection exclusive to a single mystic in a monetary fashion.) Prophecy about the timing of the Antichrist fake. So called miracles therefore are obviously fake and are either of human or preternatural origin.
(*) LUZ de MARIA de BONILLA, ARGENTINA (c. 1990 to present day)-- very suspicious, not officially approved by the Church. (Note - "Nihil Obstats" and "Imprimaturs" on a book do NOT equal formal approval of a mystic and their visions - it's not hard for fake mystics to easily obtain Nihil Obstats, either validly or invalidly for their writings to make it look like they are "approved", but approval of a book and approval of a mystic and their apparitions are TWO VERY DIFFERENT THINGS). Her visions teach heresies, doctrinal errors, contradicts true mystics. Has an underhanded secretive attack on the rosary in one of her 'visions'. Becoming known for her 'herbal remedies' for the chastisements, in particular, the 'Good Samaritan Oil', which in fact is not a heaven revealed remedy but a known medieval recipe called 'Thieves Oil'. She contradicts revelations given by true mystics about real herbal remedies. Heaven does not give contradictory information about natural remedies.
(*) MAUREEN SWEENY KYLE - 'HOLY LOVE' MINISTRIES, OHIO (1990 to present day):
---condemned by the Church as 'Not Supernatural', visions teach doctrinal errors, contains failed prophecies, visions demand belief, cult of fear created about threats of 'abandonment' if people refuse these particular messages, therefore cult around the mystic created. (The Church teaches we are not required to believe private revelations, so God certainly won't abandon you if you don't believe these.) The visions themselves ask for money. Fabricated a new devotion called the 'rosary of the unborn' with the promise that a baby will be saved from abortion each time a Hail Mary is said on a particular set of rosary beads that has the same amount of beads as a traditional rosary, OR, a shorter chaplet with 3 Hails Marys' per decade, (so which is it? A rosary or chaplet?) Real visions don't confuse devotions. And these 'Rosaries / Chaplets' are trademarked. Trademarked items show this is a cult of exclusivity, real sacramentals are not trademarked if they are meant for the universal church, unless the visionaries are purposely doing this to rake in money, and the visions do ask for money. Also, seems to distract from the rosary, the promises say you can ONLY use this specific set of beads to get the promises for the unborn, but what about the traditional ROSARY itself, not to mention indulgened beads that have touched relics, etc? This visions seem to distract from the traditional rosary as if they won't give the promise of helping the unborn, etc. Ministry around the visions an ecumenical money-making racket that refuses to submit to the local bishop. Disobedience to the Church is a sure sign of a fake mystic.
(*) DENISE ESTRADA and the 'DEUTEROUS MEDAL' (c. 1992):---message that contradicts the Church's teaching on the Second Coming of Christ -- visionary claims Heaven gave her the design for a medal so we could 'recognise' Christ who will be hiding on earth when He comes / returns, which contradicts the Gospel the Christ will appear visibly in glory from the Heavens with the angels.
(*) JOHN LEARY (1993 to present day) --condemned by the Church as 'not supernatural' and of human origin. Promotes a variant of the Millenarian heresy.
(*) EDSON GLAUBER, ITAPIRANGA APPARITIONS, BRAZIL (1994 to present day)
--- recently condemned by the Holy See as 'not supernatural'. Visions demand belief: promises a 'useless' miracle that won't help convert people when it happens if they don't believe in the visions (!), only those who believe these visions will be protected during the chastisements and see the renewal' = demanding 'exclusive belief' to the visions and the mystic, sign of a fake.
(*) JULIE WHEDBEE 'DAUGHTER OF THE KING' (2000 to present day): --- messages show this is from a Christian of a 'born again' denomination that has 'hijacked' Catholic prophecies. Asks for monetary support.
(*) FRANCINE BÈRIAULT - "AMOUR POUR TOUS LES MEINS, JESUS" (LOVE FOR ALL MY CHILDREN; JESUS) - (2001- c. 2004) -- claims to have inner locutions, but they contradict St. Paul in the Scriptures, the Church Fathers, the Church and the saints regarding the timing and reign of the Antichrist. Says the Antichrist will lead Christ's Church- which is impossible. Heretically mixes up the Age of Peace with the New Heaven and the New Earth, also defies logic regarding the nature of time, and the Three Days of Darkness. Mentions details of the 'Illumination of Conscience' event - more proof the 'Universal Illumination of Conscience prophecies are indeed a sign to recognise a fake.
(*) 'JENNIFER' of the USA, 'WORDS FROM JESUS', (2001 - c. 2012) ----several major doctrinal and Biblical errors, signs of a fake.
(*) FRIAR ELIAS del SAFRADO CORAZON de JESUS, and the 'GRACE MERCY ORDER' in URUGUAY, (2007 to present day):---Strange ecumenical religious order not associated with the Catholic Church at all but trying to look like it is - messages contain New Age mysto-babble and contradicts teaching of the Church regarding angel names and contradicts true mystics.
(*) 'MARIA DIVINE MERCY' and the "BOOK OF TRUTH", (also floating around on the Internet as the 'FATHER OF LOVE AND MERCY' and 'YOUR JESUS' Messages) - DUBLIN IRELAND (c. 2010 to present day): -- Anonymous mystic from Dublin discovered to be Mary Carberry associated with a PR firm making a rake of money off her condemned books and unofficial sacramentals. Her fake 'Book of Truth' messages have been officially condemned by the Church. Her books contained failed prophecies, and promotes the centuries-old Millenarian / Chiliast heresy. Also promotes the heresy of Indifferentism, i.e all religions and creeds are 'precious' to God. Declared we should also pay attention only to the Bible Protestant-style. Messages attempt to 'correctly explain' other passages in the Bible as if it 'has not been done correctly' by the Church for centuries therefore contradicts the doctrine that the Catholic Church is the only God-given authority that has the right and can properly interpret the Bible and teach doctrine and morals. Basically, the same error Luther fell into, he believed he was given the grace to reinterpret what the Bible really meant and led many souls astray. 'Mara-Divine Mercy's own so-called explanations of the Bible in the 'Book of Truth' are completely contrary to what the Fathers,
Doctors and saints of the Church have taught for centuries. Also contradicts Church teaching we are not required to believe in private revelations as there will be nothing new revealed that is necessary for salvation - messages claim you need to believe them to be saved. Also, riffed her 'Seal of God' from the condemned mystic Christian Gallagher of Achill Ireland, a fake sacramental attempting to set aside the protective graces of Confirmation. The image of the seal promoted by MDM was also not revealed by heaven but chosen by a graphic designer from a stock image catalogue. It is so sad to see people fall for this, even after pointing out all the grave heresies and failed prophecies of this 'mystic'.
(*) PASTOR ENOC (ENOCH), COLUMBIA (2011- to present day) --- contradicts teachings and prophecies on end time events by approved saints,
mystics, theologians, Doctors of the Church.
(*) GISELLA CARDIA (2016 to present day):--- UPDATE: OFFICIALLY DECLARED "NOT SUPERNATURAL" by the Vatican, June 27, 2024. Mystic with "miracles", but were man-made / self-induced - e.g., private investigators found out the bleeding statues had pig's blood and also Cardia's own blood on them. Messages promote a variant of the Chiliast heresy in that Christ is literally coming Himself to renew the Church, (which cannot happen as the Church Militant will be finished at the Second Coming, so if she means Christ is coming Himself to renew the Church for an Age of Peace, and not at the end of time, that is heresy).- Also says the WHOLE Church will be completely destroyed so it can be "reborn" - heresy. Christ said the gates of Hell shall never prevail, so it cannot and will not be totally destroyed in earth until Christ comes at the Second Coming and only the Church Triumphant will exist. Visions features 'Rapture' like predictions more in keeping with Protestant thinking, etc. Gets doctrinal teaching about the resurrection of the dead wrong. Cardia and her husband ran a non-profit organization based on her 'visions' without approval from the Church, which is an excommunication offense and sign of a fake mystic. She and her husband were also investigated for fraud by the local government.
(*) FR. MICHEL RODRIGUE ' APOSTLE of the LAST TIMES' (present day)--Claims to have supernatural visions, but his revelations contradict end time events taught by St. Paul and by the Fathers and Doctors of the Church, indications towards a Millenarian heresy slant. UPDATE: the Bishop of Amos and his own Bishop of Hearst-Moosonee have issued letters September 2020 stating again these visions and prophecies were never officially approved of by either of them, the bishops have completely disavowed them. Both bishops have also said Fr. Michel was never appointed official exorcist as was claimed, and now, due to the scandal arising, the Bishop of Amos has officially withdrawn his support for his Studium St. Joseph Labre project. Serious signs of a serious negative stance by his local bishops, therefore something indeed is 'off'. Also made a prophecy that utterly failed. Definite proof of a fake mystic.
(*) VISION of POPE BENEDICT XVI to a 'COLOMBIAN NUN' - SISTER BENEDICTA OF THE HOLY CROSS - (2023) - Very suspect, and an obvious fake. Declares Pope Benedict was the last legitimate pontiff of the church, when we know a saintly man will become pope, the 'Angelic Pontiff', who will rule the Church during the future Triumph / Age of Peace. Foments schismatic errors.
(*) LORENA and the 'SEAL of PREDILECTION / PROTECTION' - (2020s): Highly Suspect - promotes a 'seal' we have to have and can only get at specific time in order to be protected during the last times and 'raptured' by Christ when he comes for His 'remnant Church'. This message of a needing to get an exclusive 'seal' sounds very much like the condemned seers Christina Gallagher and 'Maria Divine Mercy'.
(*) COUNTDOWN to the KINGDOM WEBSITE: Problematic website: while the webmasters promote some authentic mystics on this site, they also promote several of the suspicious or condemned mystics named above, even when they know one of them has been recently condemned by the Church - the site also presents an erroneous timeline of end time events from the fake mystics that contradicts the teachings of St. Paul regarding the Antichrist, and it shows indications towards a heretical Millenarian slant.

NOTE: there are also many other fake mystics and unapproved apparitions out there, I have just listed a few of the major ones here that seem to be spreading around the internet more than others and are distracting people from the true messages.
Just because a mystic is not listed here do not assume that they are okay or are approved by the Church - I probably haven't heard of them yet, or had a chance to look into their messages. (Not to mention, I can only examine so many at a time, I'm human and my time is needed elsewhere too.)
So, be careful! We we warned fake mystics would flood the earth like a swarm of flies during this time to keep people distracted and from believing or following the authentic mystics.
