1. Prologue
The collapse we are experiencing today in the world and in the Church was foretold by Heaven to Don Bosco through four linked visions concerning the fall and the total purification.
«We know the whole world is going through problems, political problems, social problems and the problem from the environment; various catastrophes one after another. What I’m going to speak is about the tribulation that is waiting for us Christians, in the very nearest future. I say nearest future mean the coming 7-8 years (2025/26-2032). Why I say 7-8 years? We Christians will have great tribulation because in the year 2033 we celebrate the Great Jubilee of Jesus bringing salvation to mankind» (Father James Manjackal, Catholic priest, India, July 26, 2025) [1].

2. Chronological progression of events in 4 stages
Heaven gave St. John Bosco a roadmap that foretells the persecution and the internal purification of the Church. It was given to him through four successive visions, which trace the assault on the world, from its political origins to the purification of the Church.
- 2.1. First stage
In the first stage, Heaven showed Don Bosco civil apostasy and the punishment for the political decisions of secularist rulers. - 2.2. Second Stage
In the second stage, Heaven warned of a violent global war against the faith, identifying the pillars of resistance for the Church. - 2.3. Third Stage
In the third stage, Heaven revealed the global geopolitical purification, in which nations would destroy one another because of their own errors in denying God. - 2.4. Fourth Stage
And the fourth stage reveals the siege and decline of the Church, and its internal purification before the final triumph.
This sequence served as an educational plan to help the faithful understand why worldly structures are being destroyed and why divine intervention is taking place. The map details that there will be external, physical persecution against believers and anticipates the decline of the Church amid the chaos so that the faithful do not panic or give up on the Church when they see churches under attack and the hierarchy in disarray.
This sequence also demonstrates that God allows the attack to dismantle any reliance on human diplomacy before Divine intervention.

And why did Heaven choose Don Bosco as its spokesperson?
God had granted Don Bosco insight into the sins confessed in the confessional and the ability to see the immediate future of his young people. Such was the respect for him that even the secularist and anticlerical ministers of the Italian government sought him out in secret. And his reputation for holiness and his miracles in Turin served as an indisputable seal of authenticity for the apocalyptic messages he sent to the Pope. Those miracles made it impossible for the people of his time to claim that his visions were madness or fantasy.

3. 4 Links in the Prophetic Progression
3.1. First Link: The Dream of the royal court’s page
The first link in the prophetic sequence revealed to Don Bosco began between 1854 and 1855, through the famous dream of “the page” from the royal court. Don Bosco saw a page in court uniform shouting:
«A grand funeral at court!»
Days later, the page appeared again, repeating:
«Not a great funeral at court, but great funerals at court!»
The warning was directed at King Victor Emmanuel II, who was planning to sign a secularist law to expropriate the Church’s assets and suppress religious orders.
The king ignored the letters the saint sent him detailing the dream and continued with the debate over the law. And within a few months, the king’s mother, his wife, his brother, and his youngest son all died. But despite the panic and the funerals, the king ultimately approved the anticlerical decrees (read the full text of the dream, link to note [2]).
With this tragic fulfillment, Heaven made it clear that the modern assault has its roots in the extreme secularism of rulers who decide to strip the sacred of its legal protection. And it demonstrated that Heaven withdraws its protective hand when nations rebel against their Creator.
3.2. Second Link: The Dream of the “Two Columns”
The second link in the prophetic progression occurred in May 1862, when Don Bosco had the famous Dream of the “Two Columns.”
Don Bosco beheld the Barque of the Church in the midst of a raging ocean, surrounded and attacked by a multitude of enemy ships. The Pope, who was at the helm of the Barque, was mortally wounded during the battle, and a new Pontiff immediately took command. And at the height of the storm, two columns emerged from the sea, becoming the only means of survival for the Barque of the Church. The larger column held a Sacred Host, bearing the inscription:
«SALUS CREDENTIUM» (Health/Salvation for those who believe).
And the other column bore a statue of the Virgin Mary with the inscription:
«AUXILIUM CHRISTIANORUM» (Help of Christians).
The new Pontiff steered the ship and moored it securely to these two pillars, causing the enemy ships to collide with one another and be destroyed. Heaven established here that resistance for the Christian lies in clinging to the Eucharist and the protection of the Mother of God (read the full text of the dream, link to note [3]).
3.3. 2.3. Third Link: Prophecy of ’70: Paris, the Church, Italy
The third link in the progression manifested in July 1870 through three prophetic visions, following the loss of the Papal States. The vision is known as “Prophecy of ’70: Paris, the Church, Italy”
Troops had occupied Rome and stripped the Church of its temporal power, marking the beginning of a severe heavenly judgment upon the arrogant powers. Don Bosco received direct messages from Heaven announcing the destruction of Paris due to its immorality and pride.
They also indicated that Italy would suffer immense pain and devastating wars for having turned their backs on God’s laws (read the full text of the dream, link to note [4]).
Thus, the secularist nations that attempted to build progress without God end up crushing one another in bloody historical conflicts.The message is that the pride of the world powers must be broken so that people may once again lift their eyes to the Creator.
3.4. Fourth Link: “The March of the 200 Days”
The fourth link in the progression occurred in 1873, through the vision known as the “March of the 200 Days.”
In this dream, Don Bosco saw that God allows the enemies of the Church to invade Rome and expel the Pope and his ministers. This forced march into exile strips the clergy of all their comforts in one fell swoop. And the dream shows the intervention of angels demanding a radical purification of the clergy.
The Divine warning rebukes the lukewarmness of the sacred ministers, who had grown complacent and allowed themselves to be seduced by worldly logic. It heralds the end of shepherds who sought their own interests rather than caring for the flock. And it specifies that, following this severe judgment, new shepherds will be sought among the simplest of people.
The exile lasts two hundred dawns of spiritual combat before the Church regains its course. At the end of this period, the Pope takes up the banner handed to him by the angels and embarks on the victorious return to the Holy City. Upon entering St. Peter’s Basilica, the Pontiff intones the song of victory, and the dense inner darkness of the structure dissipates. The sun once again illuminates the earth, revealing a decimated planet bearing the deep marks of Divine purification.
The secularism of rulers, worldly ideologies, and ecclesiastical pride are reduced to ashes. And the survivors acknowledge Divine sovereignty with the text’s final phrase:
«Truly, there is a God in “Israel» [5]» (Read the full text of the dream, link to note [6]).
§4
4. Conclusion
The progression that Heaven revealed to Don Bosco shows that the crises began with the Secularism’s attack on the sacred, which led to the collapse of certainties in the world. Then confusion and apostasy entered the Church, plunging it into decline.
All these collapses are intended to purify the structures of the world and the Church, and to restore faith and the Kingdom of God on Earth, as described in the Book of Revelation, chapter 20, by Saint John [7].

God the Father: «
"If you knew how you shine after duly approaching the Sacrament of Confession. "Jesus is in the Confessional and He hears every word, sees into every corner of your heart and Is eager to bestow the graces inherent in His Forgiveness.
"I ask to end to this abomination! No more of extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist, no more of Communions in the hand!"
"Oh Jesus of Divine Mercy, hear my pleadings to you, for I am here to do your Will!"
"I place myself in the presence of the Most Holy Trinity (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and by the power of the Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ, I break, undo, trample, annihilate, render ineffective, and erase from my physical, psychic, biological, and spiritual being every curse that has been placed on me, on my family and family tree, on any person, family member, or ancestor through acts of occultism or spiritism. By the power of the Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ and through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, St. Michael, St. Gabriel, and St. Raphael, I break and render ineffective every curse, whatever its nature, in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen (Repeat the prayer 3 times)" 
"O glorious St. Joseph! by your profound humility, by your unalterable meekness, by your invincible patience, by your angelic purity and perfect fidelity that made you a timely imitator of the virtues of Jesus and Mary, I ask you to console me in all my sorrows, to guide me in all my doubts, to defend me in all temptations, to deliver me from all spiritual and material dangers; to extend your arm against all my visible and invisible enemies, breaking and destroying all the snares and barriers that they tend and arm against me. Amen." 
"Oh, blessed Saint Michael, protect us from the attacks and snares of the evil spirits because you know full well that we are poor mortals, fragile and weak, in need of the Mercy of God and of your protection to fulfill the mission that Heaven has commissioned to us. Oh, Saint Michael, may your victorious cry: “who is like God? no one is like God”, suppress and cast into Hell satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the destruction of souls. Amen"
Come, Holy Spirit, send to us from Heaven a ray of your light. Come, Father of the poor, come, giver of gifts, come, light of hearts. Perfect comforter, sweet guest of the soul, sweetest relief. In toil, rest, in heat, shelter, in weeping comfort. O most blessed light, invade into the depths the hearts of your faithful. Without your strength nothing is in man, nothing is without fault. Wash what is sordid, bathe what is parched, heal what bleeds. Bend that which is stiff, warm that which is icy, straighten that which is astray. Give to your faithful who trust in you alone your Holy Gifts. Give virtue and reward, give holy death, give eternal joy. Amen.
"O Hearts of Jesus and Mary; I consecrate myself, I consecrate my family and the whole world, to your Most Beloved Hearts. Listen to the supplication which I making to you and accept our hearts in Yours, to be delivered and protected we, the whole world, from all evil and all sin. May the protection of your Two Hearts be refuge, strength, and protection, in the daily spiritual struggles. That the power of your Two Hearts irradiates the world so that it is protected from evil and sin. We willingly consecrate ourselves and consecrate all mankind to your Hearts; sure and confident, for your Great Mercy, to obtain the victory over the forces of evil in this world, and the eternal Glory in the Kingdom of God. Amen"
