Excerpts from Maria Divine Mercy
My True Church will be thrown out of Rome and will have to endure a number of years of desolation
…
The persecution I speak of is mainly a spiritual one. My true disciples, and I mean all Christians, of every denomination, everywhere, will watch in great sorrow when they have to bear witness to the great deceit, which will descend over the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church will embrace the secular world and will declare mortal sin to be no more. Sin, will not be acknowledge and in order to deceive the innocents, they will be told that it is not difficult to enter My Kingdom. Confessions will stop in the present format. People will be told to ask for redemption in their own way, and as such, many will not then bother to ask for My Forgiveness. They won’t do this because they will no longer accept that sin is caused deliberately and that, because of this, that God will forgive all. This is the error which was foretold and which will lead millions into the fires of Hell and they will be led there by the False Prophet and the Antichrist. [Note: the ultimate unforgivable sin is the sin in which the sinner refuses to ask God for forgiveness. (Matthew 12:32, Luke 12:10)]

Note: for a valid Sacrament of Confession – “in the present format” – the following things are required: (see the Catechism of the Catholic Church on this topic here).
1. The minister must be a validly ordained priest with jurisdiction: “For valid administration, a twofold power is necessary: the power of order and the power of jurisdiction. The former is conferred by ordination, the latter by ecclesiastical authority. At his ordination a priest receives the power to consecrate the Holy Eucharist, and for valid consecration he needs no jurisdiction. As regards penance, the case is different: “because the nature and character of a judgment requires that sentence be pronounced only on those who are subjects (of the judge) the Church of God has always held, and this Council affirms it to be most true, that the absolution which a priest pronounces upon one over whom he has not either ordinary or delegated jurisdiction, is of no effect” (Council of Trent, Sess. XIV, c. 7). (CCC 1495)
2. The person must examine his conscience honestly and thoroughly and must not deliberately withhold confession of any mortal sins (CCC 1456).
3. The person must be contrite and repentant (CCC 1451). A contrite person will seek the Sacrament of Confession because he is sorry for his sins. Love for God is the best motivation for seeking God’s forgiveness, but even if the person is not perfectly contrite and seeks forgiveness out of simple fear of hell, the Sacrament of Reconciliation will still remain valid (CCC 1453). However, if a person enters the Sacrament with the intention of committing the sin later, then this person is not truly sorry for his sins and the sin will not be forgiven even if the priest is fooled and gives a valid absolution.
4. The person must complete the penance assigned to him/her by the priest as soon as possible (CCC 1494, 1491).
