Did this saint foresee the crisis of the Church and world of our time?

St. Nilus lived in the 4th century and was a disciple of St. John Chrysostom.

He had some foresights into the terrible things that are going on today in our world and in Holy Mother Church that are absolutely incredible and astonishingly accurate

Such as:

- People's appearances will change, and it will be impossible to distinguish men from women due to their shamelessness in dress and style of hair. 

- At that time the morals and traditions of Christians and of the Church will change. People will abandon modesty, and dissipation will reign.

- Lust, adultery, homosexuality, secret deeds and murder will rule in society.

- By the power of such great crimes and licentiousness, people will be deprived of the grace of the Holy Spirit, which they received in Holy Baptism and equally of remorse.

                                               ***

These are only a few of the foresights of Saint Nilus. 

To me, they sound like what is going on in today’s society.

However, we must also realize that this sorry state of things will not last forever. 

A time of peace and virtue will come, because Our Lady of Fatima gave us a promise that we know will not fail, when She said:

Finally, My Immaculate Heart will triumph!”
