    Ron.
    Are Guardian Angels always present or does God send and direct them to protect an individual at a time in need?
    I was always under the belief my guardian angel was always with me.

      Guardian angels are in Heaven, acting on our behalf by prayer at all times. When and how they might occasionally visit earth is hard to say.
      [Matthew]
      {18:10} See to it that you do not despise even one of these little ones. For I say to you, that their Angels in heaven continually look upon the face of my Father, who is in heaven.

    But I don’t know when the Warning and Miracle will be.

    Getting a bit more cautious, are we? :-)

    Ron,
    The 3 major countries where exorcisms are performed are:
    1. Italy
    2. Poland
    3. Mexico

    Poland has historically been one of the most religious countries in Europe. Though varied religious communities exist in Poland, most Poles adhere to Christianity. Within this, the largest grouping is the Roman Catholic Church:
    91.9% of the population identified themselves with that denomination in 2018.

    The Catholic branch of Christianity is the dominant religion in Mexico, representing 78% of the total population as of 2020.

    Father Benigno Palilla recently told Vatican Radio that requests for exorcisms had tripled in the past few years. There were now, he said, 500,000 alleged cases of demonic possession recorded in Italy each year.

    Is Satan and his minions working overtime? I wonder if the upcoming Warning and Mirale has anything to do with the increase in the exorcisms being carried out.

    • Ron Conte's avatar Ron Conte says:

      I don’t believe those figures. I think sometimes exorcisms are performed without actual demonic possession. That said, the world is becoming ever more sinful. But I don’t know when the Warning and Miracle will be.
