In 1143 A.D., an Irish Catholic archbishop named Malachy O'Morgan recorded the "Prophecy of the Popes" using brief Latin phrases to describe 112 popes from Celestine II until the papacy of "Petrus Romanus" who many people think will be the Last Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. The Malachy prophecy is printed below:
"During a final persecution of the Roman Church, sits Petrus Romanus, who will feed his flock through many tribulations. This accomplished, the seven-hilled city (Rome) will be destroyed, and the Dreadful Judge will judge His people."
Saint Malachy
On February 28, 2013, when Pope Benedict XVI unexpectedly announced his resignation from the papacy, the cross on the dome of Saint Peter's Basilica was struck twice by lightning, and the Internet was quickly ablaze with rumors about the impending election of Petrus Romanus, the "Last Pope" of the Catholic Church. Then, after 13 more days passed without a sitting pope, it was on the 13th day of March in the 13th year of the new Millenium, at exactly eight hours and 13 minutes in the evening, when the newly elected pope, Francis I, the two hundred and 66th pope, finally appeared on the balcony of St. Peter's Basilica on a cold and rainy night.
The election of "Petrus Romanus," or "Peter the Roman," caught prophecy watchers by surprise when pope "Peter" turned out instead to be pope "Pedro," the first LATIN AMERICAN pope elected to the papacy. And please note that this website posted its greeting to "papa Pedro" over a month BEFORE his election to the papacy. Petrus Romanus translates to "Pietro de Romano" in modern Italian, and when the pope was asked to name himself, he decided to call himself "Francis," after St. Francis "de Pietro" of Assisi. It was then later discovered that the family of Pope Francis I originally came from the small town of "Romano" in northern Italy.
While an examination of the prophecy does seem to indicate that our present pope is the 112th pope on Malachy's list, the prophecy only says that he'll "feed his flock through many tribulations." The church has suffered many attacks in the last 12 years and Francis has indeed defended the church from those attacks. It has been noted that Nostradamus quatrains describe the papacy of Sixtus V as highly significant and the Latin phrase Malachy used to describe him is "axis in medietate signi" or "the axis in the middle of the prophecy." If the 442 years separating the elections of Cellestine II and Sixtus V is added to this middle point, it means the last pope should actually be sitting in 2027. Also, there's a pope in the Palmarian Catholic Church of Spain who is named Peter and was born on March 13, the month and day that Francis I was elected (March 13, 2013) and the numerology gets even better since this Palmarion pope was born on 3/13/66, and Francis I is pope number 266. If the phrase "this accomplished" means Rome's destruction will not happen until AFTER Francis completes his task of "feeding his flock through many tribulations" then it may be the 113th pope following the 112th pope who will actually be the "Last Pope" of the Catholic Church.
The Saint Malachy, Fatima, Garabandal, and Nostradamus prophecies all describe a future attack on the Vatican by it's enemies, and the strange part is that all these prophecies came out of the vaults of the Vatican Library. The prophecies on this website normally have more than one source. The prophecy on Rome's fate has many sources, but the identity of the pope under whom it will take place is only supported by a single source, Saint Malachy. It therefore still remains to be seen whether this prophecy will take place under the papacy of our present pope.
