Marian Apparitions in Medjugorje
History is full of alleged Marian apparitions, with many countries recording events that have involved both individuals and crowds of witnesses.
It's a matter of fact, then, to believers and some non-believers, that these occurrences have actually happened.
Up till recently these Marian apparitions have belonged to a time past.
The famous apparitions at Lourdes, for example, occurred over 100 years ago.
Events that happened so long ago can be questionable to many people and they tend to make people lack a certain belief in all that has supposedly been revealed.
In June 1981 several visionaries reported Marian apparitions in the present day.
The Blessed Virgin Mary, they asserted, was visiting them each day, giving them messages that were to be passed onto the world.
These messages are from Heaven, it is reported, with the aim of re-educating us and getting us to re-center our lives on God.
The daily apparitions occur in a small village called Medjugorje in Bosnia.
When you consider that the apparitions have been occurring there for nearly 30 years now, you can wonder if any evidence of fraud has been forthcoming over the years.
The visionaries have undergone various scientific tests during their apparitions, however, and up till now have satisfied the scientific community that all appears genuine.
It's impossible to say that the visionaries are experiencing Heavenly encounters, of course, but scientific tests nevertheless indicate that something unusual, to say the least, is happening.
It is interesting to note that when the Marian apparitions began in 1981 the visionaries were mere children, unschooled as far as the Blessed Virgin Mary's reported manifestations in our world are concerned.
Also, there was ample opportunity in the beginning to trap the children into admitting that it was all make-believe.
Some 30 years later, however, it is still impossible to get them to change their stories and to find evidence of disbelief, so Medjugorje persists in affecting countless lives.
Anything to do with the Blessed Virgin Mary is usually associated with the Catholic community.
In the more than 30 million people who have visited Medjugorje since 1981, however, there has been a mixture of Catholic, Protestant, Muslim and other denominations.
Such, then, is the inspiration to believers in all religions that wish to be associated with Medjugorje and the messages of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
How long will the apparitions persist? No one knows, but we are told that when the occurrences stop, three warnings will be proclaimed worldwide, Ten days before each warning the world will be advised that a warning will take place.
This, then, will authenticate the apparitions and serve as an incentive for the world to convert from sin.
In addition, a visible and indestructible sign will be viewable at the site of the apparitions in Medjugorje.
The sign is for those that don't believe in the apparitions and it will help them believe in God's existence.
For those seeking God or wanting evidence of his existence, visit Medjugorje where the Marian apparitions are occurring daily or access the monthly Medjugorje Message online on a regular basis.
