Marie Julie Jahenny (1850-1941)


Marie's home in Blain

She was born on Feb12th in Blain, France.  She was the eldest of five children, a large peasant family, and later joined the Franciscan Third Order. She also reported apparitions through which she received prophecies about the end of the world, punishment for the sins of the people, the destruction of Paris through civil war, and the coming of Antichrist.
 At the age of twenty-three she fell ill and became closer to death, where she claimed to have been given a choice to live on, but only if she bore the stigmata sign, which from that moment appeared and stayed on her body as well as other signs until her death.  According to the testimony of witnesses, she experienced supernatural attacks from the devil, had the gift of prophecy and miracles, the miracles varied from being able to tell holy bread from normal bread, being able to see into the past of relics and even the ability to levitate.
Marie-Julie predicted numerous chastisements for sin that would fall first on France then spread to the rest of the world. These include: earthquakes, unprecedented destruction through storms, failed harvests, unknown plagues that would spread rapidly plus the cures for them, a "Blood Rain" that would fall for seven weeks, civil war in France that apparently would be started by conspirators in the government, the persecution of the Catholic Church with the total closure of all churches and religious houses(some could claim that this is currently in progress with the church being brought down by the behavior of its own priests), persection and slaughter of Christians, the destruction of Paris, a Two Day period of Darkness that would come circa a month before the Three Days of Darkness. The coming of the Great Monarch would also be announced by signs in the sky. She also had visions of the Angelic Pontiff who would reign at the same time of the Great Monarch, and that both these great leaders were destined to restore the Catholic Church

Prophet Zephaniah (est640-609BC)

Prophet Name:
Zephaniah, related to the Royal line, meaning ‘The Lord protects’, according to the Book of the Bee he was of the tribe of Simeon and died in peace in his own land
Mission/Message:
Zephaniah’s mission was to disclose God’s coming judgement and to speak about ‘the day of the Lord’.
Documentation:
Due to Zephaniah’s social position he would have been very knowledgeable of the political issues of the time, and was probably familiar with the writings of Isaiah and Amos. The book itself is believed to have been written after 640 but before 627.
Occupation:
Not known for sure but we know he was related to the royal line.
Best known for:
-Prediction of the Day of the Lord
Attributes of his personality:
He was of ruling class, in his twenties when he began to prophesy
Supernatural Aspects:
It says that the ‘word of God came to him’. His prophecies come across as if God revealed things to him first and then he spoke about it to others. This is slightly different to others who said directly as if God was speaking to them in present tense.
Examples of prophecies:
-The Day of the Lord
-The destruction of the world
End Times Prophecies:
This book is full of end time prophecies; death of men and birds and fish, destruction of the economy, houses and land not liveable (maybe nuclear contamination), a day of darkness, a time when wealth is worth nothing, the whole world consumed, streets deserted, cities destroyed

Prophet Joel (est800-400BC?)

Prophet Information:
Joel son of Pethuel, of the tribe of Reuben, according to the Book of the Bee he died in peace in his own land
Mission/Message:
His overall mission was to foretell of punishment upon Israel and all nations, followed by restoration
Documentation:
The book of Joel, is believed to have been either written in the ninth century B.C. or the sixth century B.C., the only importance of the dates is that phrases in his book were used by other prophets, therefore if the early date is true then other prophets certainly read his work, and if the later date, then he had read the works of some of the other prophets
Occupation:
The occupation of Joel is unknown as there is very little mention of him elsewhere (only in the book of Acts) and the non-Biblical legends about him are not convincing, however he was concerned with Judah and Jerusalem so he probably resided in that area
Best known for:
-Not following the general belief that Israel would avoid a day of judgement
Attributes of his personality:
The whole book of Joel is in poetry format in proclamations and prophecies so there is no direct storylines about the man himself, I do not wish to comment on his character based solely upon those words, a more detailed psychoanalysis of the words would be needed.
Supernatural Aspects:
It says that “the word of the Lord came to Joel”, which is very similar to the claims of other prophet’s claims of prophetic authority. There is no mention of dreams or visions.
Examples of prophecies:
-Prediction of a massive locust plague, which some point out to represent empires invading but some believe it was just the plague.
-Prediction that the people of Israel will be scattered across all nations but after a war will return and be given a sanctuary which will never be invaded again
End Times Prophecies:
-The sun will turn to darkness
-The moon will turn the colour of blood
-Blood and fire and billows of smoke

Prophet Amos (est760-750BC)

Prophet Information:
Amos from the land of Tekoa, according to the Book of the Bee a priest of Bethel tortured him and afterwards killed him.
Mission/Message:
His overall mission was a call for social justice, emphasizing God’s forgiveness on the repentant and judgement on the unfaithful.  He traveled through the Northern Kingdom of Israel, in particular visited the cities of Samaria and Bethel.
Documentation:
The book of Amos was written at a time of prosperity of the Northern and Southern kingdoms and before the Assyrian captivity, and therefore it is believed that Amos’s years of ministry were from 760 to 750 B.C. during the reign of Uzziah (792-740 B.C.)
Occupation:
Amos was a shepherd of Tekoa; it is unclear if he was just a hired hand, or the owner of the herds. However it is clear that he was knowledgeable with words and with history and therefore he was probably not a peasant.
Best known for:
-Travelling to the Northern Kingdom (Israel) to give a message in a time of prosperity that the immorality and corruption had not gone unnoticed by God
Attributes of his personality:
A simple and humble man, in Chapter eight he is confronted by people telling him to go back to where he had come from, and he replies that he is not a prophet just a shepherd that has been sent by God to give a message. In another version he says "I am not a prophet nor a son of a prophet".
Supernatural Aspects:
In his verses of prophecies, he talks as if God speaks directly to him revealing things in imagery and words.
Examples of prophecies:
-Prediction of the invasion of the Northern kingdom by the Assyrians (722-721 B.C.)
-Prediction that the people of Israel will be exiled to all nations but they will be planted in a land of their own
-Prediction of the coming Messiah
End Times Prophecies:
-The Day of the Lord will come
-A day of darkness not light, pitch black without a ray of sunshine
