Malachy the Irish prophet? (1094-1148)

Malachy (1094 - November 2, 1148) otherwise known as Mael Maedoc was born in Armagh, Ireland yet became known later in life as a prophet. While in Rome in 1139 he received a vision showing him all the Popes from his day to the end of time. According to these prophecies, only two Popes remaining after John Paul II.

St. Malachy was reported to have possessed the powers of levitation, healing, and clairvoyance. While on his way to the Vatican to assume the post of papal legate for Ireland, he fell into trance and saw a line of papal reigns stretching from the successor to Innocent II and extending through centuries to the last of the line, identified as Peter of Rome. Malachy assigned short descriptions in Latin to each pope when he committed his vision to paper. These mottoes usually refer to a family name, birthplace, coat-of-arms, or office held before election to the papacy. Some of the phrases are multiple prophecies, written with ingenious word play.

Through the centuries, his prophecies have turned out to be amazingly accurate, even prophesying the date of his death. In all, 112 popes and their characteristics are listed from 1143 to the alleged end of the world, or perhaps religion as we know it, when truth is inlay revealed about human creation and destiny.

Saint Malachy's final words were: "Rome, the seat of the Vatican, will be destroyed and the dreadful Judge will judge the people."

Prophecy of the Popes is a list of 112 short phrases in Latin. They purport to describe each of the Roman Catholic popes (along with a few anti-popes), beginning with Pope Celestine II (elected in 1143) and concluding with a pope described in the prophecy as "Peter the Roman", whose pontificate will end in the destruction of the city of Rome

Old Document Review 'The Prophecy of the Tiburtine Sibyl'

This old document forms part of the Mirabilis liber which is a collection of prophecies from various sources and anthologies.  This part of the collection is said to be a surviving prophecy of the Tiburtine Sibyl, that she was one of ten Sibyls and that she is called Cassandra and lived for 367 years and traveled across many parts of the world from Asia to Africa and Europe.

There are a lot of similarities between this continuous prophecy and the prophecy by Bishop Bemechobus and seems to biblical based, however there are some very stark differences which have no apparent biblical links.  The story tells us of how she came to Rome where she was asked to interpret a dream, and so she took them up into the mountain and told them that 'The nine suns that you saw signify all the generations that are to come' and then she goes on to tell them what some of the things that are in store for some of these generations.  This is somewhat similar in a way to the belief of the Mayans that there are nine generations.

She goes on to list rulers and princes and successors to a point where there shall be 'wars between Christians and the pagans' in a time where 'Men shall be greedy and false and truth shall disappear'.  She lists a number of disasters including islands swallowed up by floods (Japan?) and bloodshed and earthquakes and so on.

Then she says that after all the wars that a king shall reign over the Greeks and French and Romans for a hundred and twelve years, at which point the Antichrist will appear and cause havoc.  Followed by the army from the north and the two witnesses Elias and Enoch, and the Antichrist will be killed by Michael.  Then the king (Christ) shall return 'through the spheres'.  And all mankind will be judged before earth is then finally destroyed.  What I find intriguing is that if the references to war are actually meant to represent World War 2 then if you add 112 years (of the UN) to 1945 you end up with 2057, and the Antichrist is said to rule for three years which gives you the end of the world being 2060, the exact same year which Isaac Newton came up with in his mathematical formula based upon the Book of Daniel > one word > hmmm
