Review: The Warning


Because of the topic, I hesitated writing this review.  End Times talk scares people (see my post titled The End Times, in 2011).  Then I heard Christine Watkins’ talk about her book here:
She felt God was telling her to write this book, which she was hesitant to do, then very quickly God put a number of people in her path, who experienced a warning from God.  “I knew people would laugh at me and call me a religious nut, but I knew God was telling me to do this, so I just did it.”  It is a top-seller on Amazon.
About ten years ago, I experienced what Watkins did, a calling to write a book, and strangers also appeared in my life who had experienced the topic --- how God called them to do a strange thing, and in doing so they changed hundreds of lives for the better.  They wrote their stories for me, but then I interjected MY plans, seeking to get a couple of more stories and to publish under a false name.  When God called me, I didn’t “just do it,” and so I failed.  I am writing this review (as you will see later) because I again feel called to “just do it.”
The Warning begins with an excellent note to non-Christians: “Before you put this book down …”.  The introduction explains what The Warning, an illumination of conscience, is, “It’s little different from what meets us at the end of life”.  We will see our life, our souls, as God does.  God the Father revealed this mini-judgement to Matthew Kelly (a very popular author): It will be painful, very painful, but short.  You will see your sins; you will see how much you offend Me every day … You will see your own personal darkness contrasted against the pure light of My Love.  And you’ll know your eternal destiny, if you do not repent and change.
The book includes stories of a number of people who personally experienced an illumination of their conscience, some as a near death experience.  They saw it as a great blessing, and changed their lives, focused on what God would have them do with the talents He gave them (like those people who I was to write about).  The book also includes stories of mystics and prophets, a number alive today, saying in detail that The Warning is coming VERY soon, even this year.  I know, this is scary to hear, but look at this world:  could Sodom have been worse?  I wrote a blog post last year on If I Could Change the World, but I got stuck wondering: How could I ever get the world’s attention, to tell it to change?  The Warning prophets say there will be darkness over the whole world, then a cosmic collision will light the night sky, and Jesus will appear in the sky, and everyone in the world will see Him.  All will know with no doubt that God does exist, and then they will see their soul (an event not unlike that described in Mt 24:29-31).
If this warning comes soon, I pray or God’s Mercy on our country, my friends, and that I (who am alive for some reason in this time) will be in some way useful to help confused souls, who now want to change their lives, to better understand Jesus and His call to Love, before the world re-captures their attention.

One more thing.  A week after I read the book The Warning, I was looking through my bookshelves and discovered materials from my 1987 visit to Medjugorje, another site where Mary appeared and said the world needs to change, AND where she warned of coming Punishment, if it did not.  And among my bookshelf materials, I found this:
It was written in 1982, by a priest who was told by God that The Warning was imminent, and wrote what to do afterwards.  The entire 90-page booklet (I was surprised to see) can be read online here: 
It is well worth your time to read.
In Mary’s appearances in Garabandal and Medjugorje, Mary says she has obtained God’s Mercy for us, and The Warning.  She also says there will then appear at those two sites a visible miracle, for all the world to see, which will last until the end of the world.  The visible miracles will exist as reminders. 
The Warning will be an act of God’s Mercy, to protect us from The Punishment of God’s Justice. But, Mary and the prophets say, that The Punishment will come if the world does not change.  Some visionaries were shown what that punishment would look like, and they screamed and cried in horror.
Two books titled The Warning, written 37 years apart, were put into my hands in a single week.  And so I had to write this review.  And so I just did.

I’ve taken to say a rosary each day, the intention being God’s Mercy on this country.  And at the finish of the rosary, I sing: God bless America.  Only, with the above thoughts, one line has entirely new meaning:
God bless America,
Land that I love.
Stand beside her, and guide her
Through the night with a light from above
From the mountains to the prairies,
to the oceans white with foam,
God bless America, my home sweet home,
God bless America, my home, sweet, home.

  1. Wow, that is incredible! I know some of my friends have voiced apprehension at the underlying current of evil that feels like it is just growing bigger. I will definitely share this with them and I will continue to pray for our country as well.

  2. Thank you, Cynthia, for your comments. Some of the mystics say that this fall will be a time of great crisis, before the Warning, and to stock food. I don't know the truth of their words, but I have stocked, and am praying. If the foods are unneeded, they will be donated to those who need. I just got a note from a friend living in a remote village in Uganda. Food is very short there as the Covid lockdowns there prevent any travel, or food being brought in. I fear much of the world will be facing that soon.

    You also are in my prayers.
