The Real Third Secret?

Warning!!! We are not stating that this is the real Third Secret of Fatima but only wanting to investigate if it is true, decide for yourself.

But prove all things; hold fast that which is good.

St. Paul, (1Thessalonians 5:21)

A little background, I happen to come across a file on the internet claiming that it was the Third Part of the Secret of Fatima. I had never seen a copy of this, I saved the jpeg file with the intention of debunking it, but never did anything with it. At that time, I was searching for letters written by Sister Lucia and I was searching in Portuguese, because I wanted to find more handwriting samples. Turns out it was released by Tradition in Action

Some Interesting details:

  • The letter starts by say that it is the “third fragment” and not the third part.
  • The letter is dated 1/4/1944, or April 1, 1944 (a Saturday). That is 3 months and 1 day from the beginning of the year, or 13 weeks and 1 day.
  • There is no crease from the letter being in an envelope, if it was photographed after being in an envelope, should it not have a crease?
  • The image quality of the document in question is very good, not like the copies that the Vatican released, so the intent is for someone to be able to read it.
  • The photograph of the letter is not cropped out of the background, whom ever photographed the image made sure the blanket/towel/cloth was visible, this is very interesting because of the photograph of Bishop Da Silva with the 3rd Secret envelope in Time Magazine.
  • If someone wanted to fake a document why would you add a finger print at the bottom that could easily expose the said document as a fake?
  • The sheet of paper is not ruled and has a border line much like the ones the Vatican released for the first secret.
  • This one is curious, on the eighteenth line of text, Sister Lucia writes “Juan Pablo II”, referring to John Paul II. But Juan Pablo is in Spanish, in Portuguese it would have been “João Paulo II” Sister Lucia knew Spanish as well as Portuguese from living in Tuy. Since she did not know of John Paul, she would have to have been told to write Juan Pablo. Why write a name in Spanish when the letter is written in Portuguese?

Here is my translation of the Alleged Third Secret:

JMJ

Tuy 1/9/944

Now I will reveal the third fragment of the secret: This part is apostasy in the Church!

Our Lady showed us a view of an individual who I describe as the “holy Father” in front of a crowd that was praising him.

But there was a difference with a true Holy Father, the gaze of the demon, that was the gaze of evil.

Then after a few moments we saw the same Pope entering a Church, but this Church was the Church of hell, there is no way to describe the fealty of this place, it seemed a fortress made of gray cement with broken angles and eyes-like windows, had a beak on the roof of the building.

Then we looked up towards Our Lady who told us, you saw the apostasy in the Church, this letter can be opened by The Holy Father, but it must be announced after Pius XII and before 1960.

In the reign of Juan Pablo II the cornerstone of the tomb of Peter must be removed and transferred to Fatima.

Because the dogma of faith is not preserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and handed over to Fatima.

The cathedral of Rome must be destroyed and a new one built in Fatima.

If 69 weeks after this order is announced Rome continues its abomination, the city will be destroyed.

Our Lady told us that this is written, Daniel 9, 24-25 and Matthew 21, 42-44

Now I am going to reveal the third fragment of the secret: This part is the apostasy in the Church!

Our Lady showed us the individual who I describe as the ‘holy Father’ in front of a multitude that was cheering him.

But there was a difference from a true holy Father, his devilish gaze, this one had the gaze of evil.

Then, after some moments we saw the same Pope entering a Church, but this Church was the Church of hell; there is no way to describe the ugliness of that place. It looked like a gray cement fortress with broken angles and windows similar to eyes; it had a beak in the roof of the building.

Next, we raised our eyes to Our Lady who said to us: You saw the apostasy in the Church; this letter can be opened by the holy Father, but it must be announced after Pius XII and before 1960.

In the kingdom of John Paul II the cornerstone of Peter’s grave must be removed and transferred to Fatima.

Because the dogma of the faith is not conserved in Rome, its authority will be removed and delivered to Fatima.

The cathedral of Rome must be destroyed and a new one built in Fatima.

If 69 weeks after this order is announced, Rome continues its abomination, the city will be destroyed.

Our Lady told us that this is written, in Daniel 9:24-25 and Matthew 21:42-44
