The Last Pope: The Prophecies of St. Malachy for the New Millennium: The Decline and Fall of the Church of Rome - The Prophecies of St.Malachy for the New Millennium Book

John Hogue, a leading authority on Nostradamian prophecy, turns his analytical skills to the 111 Latin mottoes of Malachy of Ireland, a 12th-century bishop who is said to have predicted the succession of popes from Celestine II to the end of the Catholic church. Hogue integrates prophecy and history like a master fencer wields a rapier and dagger, adding just a touch of wry humor--who else but Hogue would compare Saint Bernard and the 12th-century monastic movement to Elvis Presley and rock 'n' roll? The Last Pope succeeds on many levels: as a comprehensive history of the papacy, as an examination of the prophecy of Saint Malachy, and as an assessment of the history and potential future of Catholicism. --Brian PattersonRead More

  • Product Description

    A new study of the papal prophesies of St. Malachy that reveals the fate of the final Pope . . . and of the Catholic Church.

    The 12th century Irish seer St. Malachy prophesied an end to the Roman Catholic Church and predicted the fates of the Popes until Judgment Day. After John Paul II dies only two Popes remain on the Doomsday list . . . will this forbidding prophetic coda of a Catholic apocalypse be fulfilled?

    In 1139 St. Malachy set out from Ireland on a harrowing pilgrimage to Rome. On sighting the Eternal City he fell to the ground and began murmuring cryptic Latin phrases, each signifying the future destiny of the Popes.

    For four hundred years the manuscript was locked in the labyrinth of the Vatican. On its rediscovery in 1595 it was rejected by the Church authorities as fraudulent but the content of the prophecies remains remarkably and chillingly accurate: to this day 90 per cent have come true.

    In examining the context of St. Malachy's life, his pilgrimages and his miracles, John Hogue presents a fascinating account of the fates of the Popes and eight hundred years of Catholic prophecy: including contemporaries, St. Hildegard von Bingen, Joachim de Fiore and Nostradamus, whose vision of the papal succession closely resembles that of St. Malachy.

    In this first complete study of the prophecies in almost a hundred years, Hogue brings his expertise to new revelations regarding the authenticity of the mottoes. As the Roman Catholic Church continues to witness an eclipse in papal power this masterly work uncovers the truth about St. Malachy's prophecies and reveals their significance as an account of the papal progression which Vatican policy makers have found too threatening to acknowledge.
