Question
i was looking up something father and i found some sites of people wo say they have visions of the future, and alot of them have come true  already> is this posiible to beleive?

heres 2 sites


Answer
The two sites were not attached.
Some persons have experienced visions or revelations from God about future events, for example, at Fatima.  However, the problem with claims is to determine if the person foretelling has actually had a revelation from God.
Even private revelations, if authentic, are not part of the official teaching of the Catholic Church.
While we are living in the end times, in the sense of the final time of God's providence since the first coming of Jesus, we know not the day nor the hour.  St. Paul had to tell the people of his time to go about their business as usual without obsessing about the second coming.
Again, best wishes, Ryan, for a blessed Easter.
