Rev. Theophilus Reisinger, O.M. Cap. (d. 1941)

Letter written by Father Reisinger to the author, April 18, 1940, for publication :

"About Antichrist: In my exorcisms the evil spirits, and among them Lucifer, had made it known that Antichrist is already born. But be sure Rev. Father, I wanted the truth from the mouth of the infallible truth, from Christ Himself. Many things Christ had revealed already but only during the Mass, therefore I told my 'Mystic': Ask Christ whether Antichrist is already born. Christ appeared to the Mystic during the Mass at the Consecration, lifted up on the Cross, bleeding from all the wounds. After the Consecration He approached her and remained until the Agnus Dei and gave the following answer: 'Yes, Antichrist is already born, but he is yet too small and too young, wherefore, he cannot appear yet publicly. At the age of 33 years, he will begin his persecution against the Church and this will fall into the year 1952 and his end will come in the year 1955/

"After some years, I had Christ asked something about Antichrist, but He answered: These questions cannot be answered, tell your Confessor :• He knows that Antichrist is already born ; he knows where he lives ; he knows when he will begin his persecution, when his end shall come ; he knows his name 666 and this should suffice bim.'

"I had to perform another Exorcism and one of the evil spirits spoke out of the body, very loud: 'Ha! in the year 1952, Antichrist will begin his persecution/

"Antichrist will have his 20th birthday this year. Judas

Iscariot possesses the man, who will appear as Antichrist. Antichrist should have been here already according to St. Francis de Paul and Bartholomew Holzhouser, and Franz Ferdinand of Austria was appointed as the Great Monarch. But there were many souls of Atonement and the coming of Antichrist was postponed and the appointment for the Great Monarch went over to Otto of Hapsburg. Christ says : He will accomplish great things in the time of Antichrist and the 2nd Verse of Apoc. Chapter VI means Otto. The time for Antichrist can no more be postponed because he is already born. Now dear Father, whatever I have written down here are the words of Christ. That Antichrist should begin in 1965 is not quoted right. Many priests and people believe that the destruction of Antichrist is the end of the world. This is only the first act of the General Judgment. After this follows the time 'One flock and One Shepherd/ And then the final end." Editor's note: Despite the assurance given here this is still one man's opinion.
