Medjugorje Spiritual Director Excommunicated...

IGNORE OTHER APPARITIONS
"My child and My children, I want to tell you also at this time: You are not to concern yourself with other words and writings of apparitions in various places. I can tell you, My children, unfortunately there are those who are caught up in the excitement of the times and My appearance at your site. However, you cannot become involved, My child or My children, with any of these apparitions. It is best to ignore them." - Our Lady, March 18, 1989

TO CONFUSE YOU
"My child, you must not concern yourself with other places of apparitions. I assure you, you will have all you can handle with your own mission, My child. You must recognize satan's devious ways he will set to confuse you by having you involved in chasing other situations, My child, that will cause you to become involved in unnecessary pursuits.” – Our Lady, May 14, 1977

ChurchMilitant.com reported on October 27, 2020:

After years of defying the Church, a former spiritual director to the alleged visionaries at Medjugorje has been excommunicated.

The diocese of Brescia, Italy made the announcement in a press release on Oct. 23: "The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith formally communicated to the bishop of Brescia that on July 15, 2020, the congregation issued a declarative decree regarding Mr. Tomislav Vlasic. The decree declared that Mr. Vlasic incurred the penalty of excommunication."

As a Franciscan priest, Vlasic had previously served as spiritual advisor to the seers in the 1980s, until he was embroiled in a sexual scandal, fathering a child with a nun. He left Medjugorje to found the Queen of Peace community in Parma.

He later admitted on a video that he had been a member since 2002 of a movement called "The Central Nucleus," which combines Catholic teaching with astrology and New Age mysticism.

In 2008, the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith launched an investigation into Vlasic, after his bishop suspended him "for the diffusion of dubious doctrine, manipulation of consciences, suspicious mysticism, disobedience toward legitimately issued orders," as well as charges of sexual misconduct. The investigation resulted in his laicization in 2009 by Pope Benedict.

The Oct. 23 diocesan statement noted:

[T]hroughout these years, in the Diocese of Brescia and in other places, he continued to carry out the activity of an apostolate with individuals and groups, both at conferences and through the media; he continued to call himself a religious and priest of the Catholic Church, simulating the celebration of sacraments, which were not valid; he continued to cause serious scandal among the faithful, committing acts gravely detrimental to ecclesial communion and to obedience to church authorities.

The statement explains that the excommunication means "Mr. Vlasic is forbidden from taking part in any way as a minister of the celebration of the Eucharist or any other ceremony of public worship, of celebrating sacraments or sacramentals, of receiving the sacraments or exercising any kind of church office, ministry or function."

The diocese goes on to request that Vlasic be expelled from any public worship or Church events.

Doubtful Authenticity

The Medjugorje phenomenon has been wracked by scandal and marked by continual disobedience to the local bishops by the Franciscans at the heart of the community.

In 1999, the Franciscans were expelled from the diocese of Mostar-Duvno by their bishop, Ratko Peric, as well as by the Father General of the Order of Friars Minor, for disobedience. The Vatican approved the joint expulsion.

The alleged apparitions have been occurring like clockwork in the small Bosnian town since 1981, when a group of children claimed they were receiving heavenly messages from Our Lady. She's reportedly been appearing to them regularly ever since, giving thousands of messages (some whose contents verge on heterodox) over the course of nearly four decades. The alleged apparitions have turned the once-sleepy Bosnian village into a travel destination for millions of pilgrims and tourists, launching the seers to international fame as they travel the globe on lucrative speaking tours.

At least three of the original six visionaries claim to still be receiving messages daily from Our Lady. Her appearances are so regular, in fact, that she seems to appear on command at the seers' whim.

As critics have noted, the messages include questionable doctrinal content, including the fact that "Our Lady" regularly prays the "Our Father" with the seers — something Our Lady refused to do at the Church-approved apparition of Fatima, because it includes the line "forgive us our trespasses." As the Church teaches, Mary is without sin, so she could not ask for forgiveness of her sins.

The Virgin also reportedly said, "All religions are equal before God" — espousing the heresy of indifferentism, explicitly condemned by the Church. She similarly remarked elsewhere, "It is you who are divided on this earth. The Muslims and the Orthodox, like the Catholics, are equal before my Son and before me, for you are all my children."

She is also said to have offered the very protestant remark: "I do not dispose of all graces. ... Jesus prefers that you address your petitions directly to him, rather than through an intermediary."

In 2017, after a lengthy investigation, the Vatican issued the results of its final report on Medjugorje, painting an overall negative picture. The final tally on authenticity of apparitions from 1982 onwards resulted in zero votes in favor, two votes against and 12 votes claiming no opinion could be given.

The first seven apparitions, which reportedly took place in 1981, received a generally positive response, with 13 members of the Vatican commission voting yes as to their supernatural nature, one voting no, and one vote suspended.

But the second phase — which include the 35 years from 1982 to the present day — received a strongly mixed reaction, including a final tally with zero votes in favor of the supernatural nature of the apparitions.

Pope Francis himself expressed skepticism about the authenticity of the "apparitions," saying to the press in 2017, "The report has its doubts, but personally, I am a little worse. I prefer Our Lady as mother, our mother, and not Our Lady as head of the post office who sends a message at a stated time."

"This isn't Jesus' mother," he continued. "And these alleged apparitions don't have much value. I say this as a personal opinion, but it is clear. Who thinks that Our Lady says, 'Come, because tomorrow at this time I will give a message to that seer?' No!"

Despite the pope's personal skepticism, he authorized pilgrimages to Medjugorje in 2019 as a pastoral nod to the faithful who continue to visit the site. Alessandro Gisotti, interim director of the Holy See Press Office, was careful to clarify that care must be given "to prevent these pilgrimages from being interpreted as an authentication of known events, which still require examination by the Church."

DO NOT SEEK SUPERNATURAL ELSEWHERE
"I must also warn you so that you do not have any hindrance to your mission, that there will be many false prophets in the world. They can mislead many. Therefore, it would be best if you do not go about seeking the supernatural elsewhere." - Our Lady, December 31, 1977

NOT TO BE INVOLVED WITH OTHER APPARITIONS
"There are false prophets throughout the world, many who are also coming as angels of light to deceive you in the end. Remember, My child, I ask you not to become involved with any other apparitions in the world, because sorrowfully, My children, I must tell you, many of them are not true. So you see, My child, were it not so, I would tell you; but many of them have come forward for gratification in their human natures." – Jesus, September 7, 1985

The Amazing Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/ These messages came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

BY THEIR FRUITS
"My children, I cannot give you more urgent a message than to ask you, as your Mother, to go back and read all counseling, all messages given throughout the world by just seers.
     "My children, I must warn you that you must test the spirits. When I gave you a message that there would be many seers throughout the world, I did not say that they would gather within one country. Understand this well, My children: it is the way of satan to delude and take from authentic visitations. You will recognize them because they cannot remain hidden. By their fruits will they be known.
     "My child, you are draining your energies. As I have warned you in the past, you must not be concerned with the opinion of man. Understand, My child, were you speaking and giving to them, Our sons the clergy, a message that would feed their pride and build their arrogance, you would be accepted. But I do not come to earth to go about in praise. I come to warn of an urgency upon earth, and an action of the Eternal Father to restore the earth to its former glory.
     "My Son's Church has been under, and is under heavy attack by the agents of hell. But hell shall not prevail against My Son's Church.” - Our Lady, August 14, 1981

ALWAYS TEST THE SPIRITS
"My child, since others wish to know how I personally feel for the episode that went on here on the sacred grounds only a short time ago, it made Me much unhappy for two major reasons, My child. As I told you in countless earth-years of visitations with you, that you must always test the spirits, and also to remain away from other so-called apparition sites or other seers. I say this to you, My children, because in your anxiety or your anxiousness to find the supernatural, you run to and fro seeking something that you would never find; for there is much evil upon earth now, and even the good will be deceived by satan and his legion of demons.” – Our Lady, July 25, 1985

COUNTLESS APPEARANCES
"My Mother has directed you well through countless appearances upon earth, and how many have listened to Her counsel? And how many have acted upon it? I say unto you now: You have become a degenerate generation that asks for a just chastisement from the Eternal Father.
     "Do not be affrighted, My children of the light. Know that My words are for those who have fallen into the web of Lucifer and his agents.” – Jesus, October 2, 1980

VISITS BY SAINTS OF HEAVEN
"There are many in Heaven known to you who shed tears of sorrow with Me. They, also, were upon earth and had to make their way here to the Kingdom. Their success has given them great zeal to return and gather you all back onto the road to the Kingdom. Many will be visited by the saints of Heaven. This has been deemed necessary by the Father because of the great battle that is now raging upon earth for the souls.
     "The armies of God will be set up to fight the armies of satan. You all, My children, have been given the choice for your salvation or eventual damnation.” – Our Lady, October 6, 1973

MANY APPEARANCES
"My child and My children, as I look about you, My heart is lifted a bit from the great sadness that has torn apart My heart and the hearts of many who are in Heaven. As a child, I remember My Son Jesus, how He grew up with love and great care in spirituality.
     "O My children, I have counseled you through many appearances upon your earth, in countless earth-years, to guard your homes, protect your children, and bring a firm foundation of their Faith to them, because when they leave your homes they enter now a world that is in now full control by Lucifer and his agents from hell. They form the group known as 666, the forces of evil.
     "O My children and parents, I counsel you as your Mother, I come to you with dire forebodings for your children in My heart because many are now straying into the web created by Lucifer of false religions and the occult.” – Our Lady, July 14, 1979

“HELP MY MOTHER IN HER MISSION”
"The Eternal Father knows all and sees all, and knows every heart that has been placed upon earth. However, the Eternal Father has said there will be a great destruction upon mankind very soon, because of their lack of listening to the cautions of My Mother and Our appearances throughout the world. War is a punishment for man's sins. There will be wars and more wars, and yet their hearts are hardened, and their ears have deafened to the fact that this can happen in the United States, Canada, and any part of the world that the enemy has infiltrated into.
     "My child, this is not a lesson in politics. This is but a lesson of reality, what will happen if you do not accept the messages from Heaven and pray, do penance; do much to help My Mother in Her mission, for so many are needed, so many prayers are needed for those poor souls who have no one to pray for them.” – Jesus, June 18, 1984

There are 4 Things You Must Have to Survive the End Times:

1.) The Douay-Rheims Holy Bible...

"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." - Jesus, October 5, 1985
     "You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man. I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992
    "I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible. Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds. But do not be concerned what you will say to them when accosted, for the words will be given to you by the Spirit." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976
    The Douay-Rheims Bible was published in 1899. It is the official Bible of the Roman Catholic Church. Almost all other Bibles have been rewritten by Satan.   See: https://www.tldm.org/directives/d33.htm , https://www.tldm.org/directives/d415.htm and https://www.tldm.org/directives/d182.htm   If you don't have a Douay-Rheims Bible order it now! (Order Form) Yours and your loved ones salvation could depend on it.
    Read the Bible cover to cover. If you read 4 chapters a day, you will complete the whole Bible in 334 days. I have read the Bible 2 times and working on the third time. A 75 year old Baptism gentleman told me that he and his wife have read the Bible nine times. Wow!
