Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
In 1862 Saint John Bosco warned about 'persecutions that are in store for the Church.' This had been revealed to him in a dream, which he told to four hundred boys. In the dream there was a great ship steered by the pope heading for pillars of the Eucharist and Mary amid storms and hostile enemy ships. John told of ships ramming the great ship of the Church and a pope who falls during the battle. The dream caused 'no end of wonderment' for the boys and for generations of Catholics. Now for the very first time, the meaning of these images is uncovered. Here are just some of the perplexing images from the dream that you'll find explained in this book:
- The exploding book weapons
- The escort ships
- The meeting of captains
- The raging storms
- The pope who falls twice
- The coinciding death and election of popes
- The healing wind
- The two pillars
- The calm waters
You will also learn how the general public knew details of the Third Secret of Fatima during all the years it was safeguarded by popes. Whether you are familiar with John Bosco's dream of the two columns or you are discovering it for the very first time this book will engage you as you encounter the fantastic world of a modern clairvoyant saint and uncover what his dream means to us today.

A friend of mine recommended this book to me and after reading this excellent work, I recommend it fully to my fellow Christian Amazonians. The author thoughtfully walks the reader through St John Bosco's dream and applies a systematic interpretation using disciplined approaches. In this journey, the author's dive into the details doesn't detract but rather adds to greater understanding of the role of the Church and the battles the Church faces. In addition, the author also provides very interesting comparisons to other dreams of St John Bosco as well as the Fatima secrets which I found very thought-provoking. I also appreciated the footnotes and the thorough references throughout.

Since the moment when Saint John Bosco unveiled this dream of the great ship to the five hundred youths within his ministry, it caused "no end of wonderment especially regarding the two popes." Today the speculation continues as many look to Pope Benedict XVI with hope that the new springtime in the Church will begin to bud. Author Tim Bartel offers insightful interpretations of the prophetic dream images including the mystery popes, their coinciding death and election, and the peculiar book-weapons. He reveals the specific causes of conflict between the Church and the world today, as well as recommends the devotions chosen by Jesus and Mary for the spiritual battle of this present time and in preparations for an age of peace.

I've been a fan of Saint John Bosco for years and this author's knowledge of facts is spot on. What I was able to get from this book that isn't in the others I've read is a good deal of context. He is excellent at drawing the big picture. The interpretation of both this dream and Fatima blew me away. And it's so well put together with everything so easy to find that I can use it as reference material.
