The year is 1576. Seven Conceptionist nuns from Spain arrived in Quito, ECUADOR. One of those who arrived was the 9-year-old niece of the Mother Superior. Her name was MARIANA TORRES, and she was professed at age 15 and took the name MARIANA OF JESUS. At age 30 she became the prioress and during her lifetime Our Lady visited her many times. Our Lady gave her prophecies about the 20th century. These prophecies were given 400 years ago by Our Lady concerning the 20th century. We can see how accurate they are. Described below are a few excerpts of her prophecies about the 20th century:
Unbridled passions will give way to total corruption of customs because Satan will reign through the Masonic sects, specially targeting children so as to ensure general corruption …
The Sacrament of Matrimony, which symbolizes the union of Christ with the Church, will be thoroughly attacked and profaned. Masonry, then reigning, will implement iniquitous laws aimed at extinguishing this Sacrament. They will make it easy for all to live in sin, thus multiplying the birth of illegitimate children.
The holy Sacrament of Holy Orders will be ridiculed, oppressed, and despised, for in this both the Church and God Himself are oppressed and reviled, since He is represented in His priests. The devil will work to persecute the ministers of the Lord in every way, cunningly working to destroy the spirit of their vocation and corrupting many. Those who will thus scandalize the Christian flock will bring upon all priests the hatred of bad Christians and that of the enemies of the One, Holy, Roman, Catholic and Apostolic Church. This apparent triumph of Satan will cause enormous suffering to good pastors of the Church.
Those who should fearlessly defend the rights of the Church will, instead, give their hand to the enemies of the Church, and do the enemy's bidding. But when [evil] seems triumphant, and when authority abuses its power. Committing all manner of injustice and oppressing the weak, their ruin shall be near. They will crash to the ground. …
In those times the atmosphere will be saturated with the spirit of which, like a filthy sea, will overrun the streets and public places … Innocence will scarcely be found in children or modesty in women. … Virgin souls will be sparse in the world. The delicate flower of virginity will seek refuge in the cloisters. …
Sects … will find their ways into the very heart of homes to corrupt the innocence of children. …
Pray constantly … beseeching the Eucharistic Heart of my most holy Son to take pity on His ministers, and to end, as soon as possible, these unhappy times by sending to His Church the Prelate who shall restore the spirit of her priests.
To try the faith and trust of the just ones, there will be times when all will seem lost and paralyzed. It will then be the happy beginning of the complete restoration. …
Today the incorrupt bodies of all 7 founding sisters are kept in glass cases and dressed in their habits.
