Our Lady of La Salette's predictions about the pope
Is the antichrist going to be a pope

Our family went to Our Lady of La Salette. It's beautiful and authentic. However, its a messy situation. The 1851, five years after the apparitions, Melanie Calvat, one of the visionaries wrote three hand-written pages for the bishop, which contains approved messages. She produced a booklet 28 years later, in 1879, which was not approved, and this is where we find the referenced prophesy.

Some of the prophecies contained in Melanie’s 1879 booklet are demonstrably false. They’re tied to the nineteenth century, and they didn’t happen. For example, here is the main passage about the Antichrist:

“In the year 1865 the abomination shall be seen in Holy Places in Convents, and then the demon shall make himself as the king of hearts. It will be about that time that Antichrist shall be born. At his birth he shall vomit blasphemies. He shall have teeth; in a word, he shall be like an incarnate demon; he shall utter frightful screams; he shall work prodigies; and he shall feed on impure things. He shall have brothers who, though not incarnate demons like him, shall nevertheless be children of iniquity. At the age of twelve years they shall have become remarkable for valiant victories, which they shall achieve; very soon each of them will be at the head of armies. Paris shall be burned, and Marseilles shall be submerged; many great cities shall be shattered and swallowed up by earthquakes. The populace will believe that everything is lost, will see nothing but murder, and will hear only the clang of arms and sacrilegious blasphemies.”

Now that we’re in the year 2025, either there is a 135-year-old guy out there somewhere—with brothers who won great battles as the heads of armies in the 1880s in a war that everyone seems to have forgotten about—or else what Melanie published as her “secret” from Our Lady of La Salette contains elements that are false, including the prophesy about the antichrist.

We have a separate article on whether the Vatican will form part of the One World Government and antichrist system.
