St Patrick's Prophecies: Irish Faith Will Never Die


This episode will cover St. Patrick's incredible prophecies about the Emerald Isle and the five mysterious favors that he obtained from God during his forty days of fasting in the mountains. In his time of solitude, he fought off devils seeking to tempt him in such a brilliant way that they fled in terror, which definitely reminded me of St. Michael. Sources: St. Patrick’s Prophecy, Tírechán's Collections Concerning St. Patrick, Book of Armagh (TCD MS 52): http://www.maryjones.us/ctexts/patric... Text of the script: "St. Patrick the Patrician" by PATRICK FRANCIS CARDINAL MORAN (1913 Catholic Encyclopedia): https://nobility.org/2012/03/patrick/ For further reading on St. Patrick: The Trias thaumaturga (gol., Louvain, 1647) of of the Franciscan COLGAN is the most complete collection of the ancient Lives of the saint. The Kemare Life of Saint Patrick (CUSACK, Dublin, 1869) presents from the pen of HENNESSY the translation of the Irish Tripartite Life, with copious notes. WHITLEY STOKES, in the Rolls Series (London, 1887), has given the textand translation of the Vita Tripartita, together with many original documents from the Book ofAmragh and other sources. The most noteworthy works of later years are SHEARMAN, Loca Patriciana (Dublin, 1879); TODD, St. Patrick, Apostle of Ireland (Dublin, 1864); BURY, Life of St. Patrick (London, 1905); HEALY, The Life and Writings of St. Patrick (Dublin, 1905).

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
