As many of my readers know, I’ve been writing eschatology (End Times theology) for many years (since the late 1990s). And for much of that time, I’ve been writing about the Warning of Garabandal. Some children, in the 1960s, received visions of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and she spoke of certain future events: the Warning, the Miracle, and the Chastisement. In my eschatology, I’ve not only interpreted those events, according to my own understanding and opinion, which is fallible, but I’ve also attempted to determine the dates of those events.

Please note that in my past writings, I’ve been wrong many times about the dating of the Warning and Miracle (and other early events in the End Times (also called the tribulation).

This year, 2023, is a possible and I would say likely year for the Warning and Miracle, and subsequently for the start of the End Times the same year. If that is correct, then according to my eschatology, the Warning will be this Good Friday, April 7th.

In my research and writings on Biblical chronology (“Important Dates in the Lives of Jesus and Mary”), April 7th is the true date of the Crucifixion, and April 9th is the true date of the Resurrection. So this year would be particularly fitting for the Warning.

The Warning is an event occurring worldwide all at the same time, in which each person finds themselves alone before their conscience, illuminated by the grace of God. They are shown only the sins still on their conscience. They are not given objective knowledge from God on right and wrong. They are not shown their soul as God sees it. The Warning is not a “mini-judgement” and does not show each person all the good and bad they have done in their lives. The Warning calls the world to repentance, prior to the start of the End Times later that year.

Many persons have written about the prophecies given by the Virgin Mary through the children (who are now adults) at Garabandal. Many of my predictions about the Warning are unique to my writings, so you should understand that these are my opinions, not explicitly stated at Garabandal, nor by the visionaries there.

The Consolation is an event that I’ve concluded will happen on Easter Sunday, two days after the Warning. This is uniquely my prediction, not stated by any of the visionaries or other commentators. (I’m emphasizing this point because some “authors” have in the past plagiarized my work, putting their own name on my predictions and commentary.) The Consolation consoles all those who repented, in response to the Warning.

The Miracle is an event which, according to the visionaries of Garabandal, will place a permanent miraculous sign at Garabandal and will miraculously heal all those who will be present at that event. The Miracle occurs on the date of the feast of a young martyr of the Eucharist.

I have uniquely concluded that the Miracle will include permanent miraculous signs at places of true Marian apparitions throughout the world, and that the miraculous healings will occur not only at those places, but throughout the whole world. However, not everyone will be healed, so do your best to repent at the Warning and to seek to avoid grave sin and to do the will of God.

I believe that “the Chastisement” is a reference to the subsequent sufferings of the first part of the End Times (the first part of the tribulation).

See my book: The Warning, Consolation, and Miracle for my detailed commentary and predictions regarding these events and their aftermath. The Warning will have an immense effect on politics, society, religion, and personal relationships.
