"FEW REALIZE HOW SOON THE ANTICHRIST WILL RAISE HIMSELF UP."
Christina has been shown a man in his fifties, "who looks like a bishop" and exudes a "feeling of horror". Christina tells us, "His face has a sallow complexion. His hair was cut short and it was very black. He had a roundish bold-looking face with very dark eyes. He was broad-shouldered. His looks were piercing and penetrating. They were unusual. He did not smile. He seemed to be a priest or a bishop, I'm not saying he was. I've seen him twenty, twenty-five times; always the same. I would know him instantly if I saw him on television or in reality. I would know him instantly." She says she was shown this man and during each apparition, she heard Our Blessed Mother's voice repeat the word "Antichrist."
But Our Lady also told her other information concerning specific events which she says are related to the coming of antichrist.
Back in late 1991, Christina was given three dates and told to observe what would occur on these dates. In retrospect, world affairs of rather insignificant prominence and noteworthiness that occurred on these dates had a significant effect on world conditions necessary for the rising to power of the antichrist.
"The three dates are all linked with the power of the antichrist to get control of the governments of the world, and so the money of the world, and to render it almost impossible for people to exercise their own rights and freedom."
Christina adds, "I know it is linked up to the Maastricht Treaty and the uniting of the currencies. This is through the Maastricht Referendum."
Christina always explains that the way to understand antichrist is that there are many forces at work in the world, 'anti' of Christ. These multiply and increase their power. However, these will unite in order to promote a single individual who will personify the resistance to God and uniquely embody rebellion against Him. In a message from the Heavenly Father in 1995, Christina was told by the Almighty,
'He who is anti of Me is now in the flesh.'
The sequence of experiences given to Christina concerning the antichrist she relates as follows:
I was seeing this man time and time again. I had no idea who he was at first. I just saw his face and his head. I saw him a number of times and I didn't think there was anything wrong with him, but I used to feel from him a sort of horror. There was something different about his eyes. His eyes were so piercing. I could feel his eyes penetrate me and I didn't like it. Now, I didn't know what to make of this, so I asked God one day, talking in prayer. I said, "Dear God, who is this?" much like the way I had asked Catherine of Siena who she was. The next thing I knew I heard an echo of the Virgin Mary's voice saying, "Antichrist." I got the shock of my life. I've seen this man a number of times since then, but I just ask the Precious Blood of Jesus to cover me.
He's a man in his fifties. But he has a round face and he's bald on top with very short black hair, in a fine haircut. He would remind me of somebody like a bishop. There's something very strange and very peculiar about his eyes. They were dark brown or black. I'd say he was not a bad looking man. From what I can understand of what Our Blessed Mother has said about antichrist, there will be a number of them; a number in the world right now who are 'anti-Christs' or 'anti' of Christ.
If he's not the Antichrist, I wonder why the Lord permitted me to see him and hear the words 'antichrist'. Because I didn't know anything about the antichrist at that particular stage in my life. I don't think it would be given to me otherwise. The Virgin Mary said to me, 'Few realize how soon the Antichrist will raise himself up.' There are many antichrists now, but one, as time goes on, will be elected at the top. I have recently been told by the Heavenly Father, in the course of a message, 'He who is anti of Me is now in the flesh'...
