Author’s note: In a video released on April 20, 2021, Dr. Taylor Marshall referenced the below article, one which I wrote back in 2017. Its genesis was based in my research on various documents claiming to be authentic messages related to the Third Secret of Fatima. It was written in the centennial month and year of the first Fatima message, when Catholics around the world were expecting something significant to happen in relation to that anniversary.
Nothing of major significance, however, came to pass that year. (At least, not to our knowledge.) This only heightened our sense that the crisis might well deepen indefinitely.
But the question of what the Third Secret has to teach us about that crisis — and how we should respond — remains.
