Padre Pio was a Capuchin Friar born in 1887 in Pietrencina in the Campania region of southern Italy.

He bore the Stigmata, or wounds of Christ, for exactly 50 years and 3 days. Padre Pio made many prophecies, all of which came to pass.

When he received the Stigmata in 1918, he is said to have known the time of his own death.

Although he died in 1968, Padre Pio still remains one of the foremost Christian Voices in the world today because he predated the deterioration of the Catholic Church after Oct 1958 (when Freemasonic Pope John XXIII and his first appointed cardinal Pope Paul VI jointly enacted the disastrous Vatican II after which God, in the words of Malachi Martin, simply withdrew His Grace from the Catholic Church). Padre Pio remained a TRADITIONAL CATHOLIC until his death.

For the process of canonization, Padre Pio’s body was exhumed in 2008 and was found to be almost totally uncorrupted.

During WW2, Padre Pio shocked his confreres when he assured them that then-communist Russia would one day become the center of Christian renewal after America degenerated.

There are many wonderful anecdotes of Padre Pio’s interaction with his Guardian Angel, as well as Jesus and Mary, and with other heavenly personages.

In the confessional, Padre Pio would know in advance the sins of the penitent, including significant ones that the penitent may have forgotten (whether accidentally or deliberately).

PADRE PIO’S COMMENTS, DATED 1950, REGARDING THE GREAT CHASTISEMENT

This talk in German discusses the following points from Padre Pio’s own writings, dated 1950, and also considers some of the likely similarities between Padre Pio’s words and the prophecies made by famous Bavarian Catholic seer Alois Irlmaier, and also those of other Catholic prophets. The following list contains only those points made by Padre Pio:

The world is marching toward perdition. People have left the right path and are instead treading paths that end in the wasteland of violence;

When the world was entrusted to man, it was a Garden. Man has now turned it into a poison full of poisons. Nothing now can serve to purify man’s home. Purification can only come from the Hand of Heaven; Terrible things will come; Man’s love for man has become an empty word. People of science or knowledge will not be spared the Wrath of God, only people of the heart; Soon, a terrible catastrophe, such as has never been witnessed before, will come upon the whole Earth;

The DAY OF VENGEANCE with its terrifying events is near, closer than you imagine, but the world has allowed itself to be lulled into a false sense of security; How careless people are about these things. These things will come upon them so soon, against all odds. How indifferent they are in preparation for these events through which they will soon have to pass;

The time will come when people will pluck out their eyes for a piece of bread. Shops will be looted, warehouses will be stormed and destroyed; Those who have not prepared themselves with a candle, a pitcher of water, and the necessities FOR THREE MONTHS will be lost in these dark days; Pay attention to the Sun, and the Moon, and to the stars in the sky. When they seem restless and unsettled and move strangely, you will know the day is near;

A meteor will fall to Earth and everything will shudder and flinch. It will be a catastrophe far worse than a war. Many lives will be wiped out. That will be one of the signs;

Many people will run away in shock, but they will run aimlessly. They will say there is salvation in the east and people will run to the east, but they will fall off a cliff. They will say that there is salvation in the west and people will run to the west, but they will burn as in an oven;

A country will disappear, a great country. The country will be erased from the maps forever, with its history, wealth and people all dragged through the mire;

The Earth will tremble and the panic will be great. The Earth is sick. The earthquake will be like a snake. You will hear it crawling from all sides. Many stones will fall and many men will perish;

This cataclysm will come upon the Earth like lightning. In that single moment, the light of the morning Sun will be supplanted by black darkness;

Get ready to live in total darkness for THREE DAYS; these three days are very near. These days, without something to eat and drink, you will be as good as dead;

It will begin on a very cold night. The wind will howl and, after a while, lightning will be heard;

Close all windows and doors! Do not talk to anyone outside the house! Do not look out! Light a blessed candle, which will last for many days; Hurricanes of fire will pour out from the clouds and spread over the whole Earth. Storms, thunderstorms, lightning and earthquakes will cover the Earth. A CONTINUOUS RAIN OF FIRE will fall. It will begin during a very cold night [later in 1973, Our Lady of Akita repeated this warning of A CONTINUOUS RAIN OF FIRE];

There will be great confusion because of this total darkness that is covering the whole Earth; and many, many will die of fear and despair;

Nobody should leave the house or look out the window. From this moment on, do not leave the house! Make sure you have sufficient food! The forces of nature will be at work and the RAIN OF FIRE will make people tremble with fear. Have courage!;

The wind will spread the poisonous gases over the whole Earth; The duration of the darkness will be as follows: one day and one night, followed by another day and a night, and another day. But on the third night, the earthquake and the fire will cease, the stars will shine, and the next morning, the Sun will rise again; and it will be spring; Angels will descend from Heaven and spread the spirit of peace over the Earth. A feeling of immeasurable gratitude will grip those who survive this horrific ordeal.
