Deepertruth: John Benko calls Our Lady of Medjugorgje "Satan"? Is that True No!

John Benko calls Our Lady of Medjugorgje "Satan"? Is that coming from the Vatican? No! Catholics should go for the Queen of Heaven, not the seers.

The Vatican refers to the Virgin Mary in the alleged messages from Medjugorje as the "Queen of Peace". The Vatican also refers to the messages as "alleged messages" and emphasizes that they should not be taken as fact.

Here are some other things the Vatican has said about the alleged messages and apparitions from Medjugorje:

The Vatican has approved a "Note about the Spiritual Experience connected with Medjugorje" that recognizes the spiritual fruits of the alleged messages. 

• The Vatican has granted Medjugorje a "Nulla Osta", which encourages pilgrimages to the area without entering into the question of the alleged apparitions. 

• The Vatican has warned believers to visit Medjugorje for the Queen of Peace, not for the alleged seers. 

• The Vatican has said that the messages call for conversion, peace, reconciliation, and a return to the sacraments. 

• The Vatican has said that the messages also call for abandoning a worldly lifestyle and excessive attachment to worldly goods. 

In Aug 2024, Pope Francis granted approval for devotions linked to Medjugorje: "The Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, with the assent of Pope Francis, grants approval for devotion linked to Medjugorje, recognizing the abundant spiritual fruits received at the Sanctuary of the Queen of Peace
