The appearance of the virgin Ruth

1858, the Virgin appeared in front of Bernard, a poor woman, in Luther, a small town between the Pyrenees in southern France, and asked her to recite the rosary, pray for sinners, and let the spiritual spring flow out of the mountain to cure diseases and save lives. Since then, the virgin has treated many serious diseases and terminal diseases physically or mentally through Luther's holy water. Bernard asked who she was, and she replied, "I am innocent of the original sin." At that time, the church had just announced that the virgin Mary had this title, as if the appearance of the virgin Mary would confirm this title. At that time, it was in the age of enlightenment, and many people didn't believe in the Bible and the church, so the Virgin Mary made people believe in a transcendental life through her appearance. After a rigorous investigation by the church, the story of the 18th appearance of the Virgin Mary was proved to be credible, that is, a church was built to erect a statue. Soon, Luther became one of the world-famous pilgrimage sites.

Miracle healing often happens in Catholicism. We especially cite the fact of Lourde, because it is the most famous. Any knowledgeable person, whether he believes in Christ or not, can't deny the truth as long as he sincerely and objectively studies many facts that happened in Luther. Many scholars went to Luther to study various phenomena that suddenly recovered and could not be explained by medicine, and compared their observations with each other. A photographer went to Luther to take pictures of patients and accidentally took pictures of two patients before and after recovery. These movies are really exciting. In addition, there are more than 4,000 books describing the process of patients' pilgrimage to Luther and their recovery. In the past, those who thought the word "fantasy" was enough to belittle Luther's facts remained silent.

1858, in a small town in southern France, a beautiful young woman appeared in front of a poor 14-year-old girl and told her that she was the mother of Jesus. She let this place gush new springs, and she let people go there for pilgrimage and parade. Because the spring water she led out cured many patients, her reputation spread widely, causing a sensation for a while, and the number of pilgrims increased rapidly. 1958 (centenary), the number of pilgrims reached 4 million. 1977, more than 4 million people from 95 countries went there for pilgrimage.

Every year, more than 50,000 patients come to Luther. 1948, Luther had 1000 doctors. Some are to accompany those seriously ill patients, and some are because they have the opportunity to observe Luther's countless special diseases. 19491October15th, 25,000 doctors signed up to observe the disease in the register of the disease inspection office. About 2000 people register every year. Every year, some patients, Huo Ran, recover. For a thorough understanding, we might as well start from the beginning!

1February 858 1 1 day, bernadette sobiros and two companions went to the hillside to collect firewood. In a place called Masabel near there, she heard a sound like the wind. Later, in a cave [see photo], a very beautiful woman appeared in front of her, smiled at her and made a gesture of praising her prayers, but never said anything. The woman stood there for about a quarter of an hour, but Bernard's two companions saw nothing. On February 14, she felt an inexplicable force urging her to go to the cave again. But her mother refused. Fortunately, her two companions helped her beg and got an answer from her mother. When he got there, Bernard was ecstatic at the sight of the woman. February 18, the same force urged her; Her mother forbade her to go again, because she was afraid that if her daughter was cheated by the devil, wouldn't their home become the laughing stock of her neighbors? But this time several women volunteered to accompany her. When she got there, she was ecstatic again; People noticed that she seemed to be talking to someone and had been listening. Afterwards, she described the situation at that time and said, "The woman said to me modestly in the rural dialect,' Will you come here for fifteen days in a row? The happiness I promised is not in this world, but after death. Bernard asked her what her name was; She just smiled and didn't answer. On February 19, her mother accompanied her for the first time, and on February 20, she also went. Bernard was equally ecstatic every time. A bystander said, "Bernard's face reminds me of the rising sun." Although it's out of our sight, it's already shining on the opposite top of the mountain. Similarly, her face suddenly glowed and was illuminated by divine light; This wonderful reflection makes us firmly believe that there is an invisible luminous center.

On February 2 1 day, Bernard was equally fascinated; This time, Dr. Dozos of Luther also came, and he decided to destroy this mysterious and morbid children's game according to scientific proof. When Bernard seemed to be talking to the woman who appeared, the doctor examined her carefully; Her pulse and breathing are mild and normal, and there is no tension or disorder at all. When she was ecstatic, the doctor asked her why she was so sad, and even shed tears for a moment. She said: "Because women look at the distance sadly; I asked her why. She just said,' Please pray for those poor sinners and this turbulent world!' "On that day, the police began to intervene; They threatened Bernard to lock her up ... Her father was scared and assured the police that his daughter would never go to that cave again.

On February 22nd, Bernard didn't dare to disobey his parents and went to school in a proper way. When she got to school, she couldn't help but go to the cave; She prayed there, but saw nothing. On February 23, her father no longer objected; When she got there, she saw more than 200 people waiting, and the woman appeared for about an hour. On February 24th, there were four or five hundred people there. When Bernard was ecstatic, he suddenly changed from joy to deep sadness. She heard the woman say to her, "repent!" Pray for the repentance of countless sinners! " On February 25, when she was ecstatic, she suddenly stood up, looked around and began to dig with her hands. The little hole she dug suddenly burst out of the spring. She drank the spring water and washed her face. She was ecstatic and said, "The woman said to me,' Come, drink this spring water and wash your face!'" "Because I didn't know where spring was, she guided me there." The next day, this small spring turned into a rich spring. Later, according to the rainfall, about 3800 to 16000 gallons of spring water gushed out every day.

On 25th, the CEO of Tarbes asked three psychiatrists to examine Bernard, hoping to send her to an insane asylum. The common conclusion after their investigation is: "Bernard's spirit is sound, and her sincerity is beyond doubt;" As for the woman she said appeared in front of her, it seemed to be a trance. "Besides, although her family is poor, Bernard and her parents have always resolutely refused to accept anything or money.

On February 26th, Bernard went to the cave, but saw nothing.

On February 27th, the woman said to her, "Go and ask the priest to build a small church here!" " "(Lu Se church priests have never come to see this. To this request, our pastor replied, "You tell that woman that the pastor in Lu Se is not used to working for strangers. Let her explain first and prove who she is. "On February 28th and March 1 day, she was ecstatic again, but she didn't get any reply. On March 2, the woman made another request and added: "May the masses March here. "On the morning of March 3, the woman didn't show up; Bernard then went to the cave involuntarily, and this time he saw the woman. March 4th is the last day agreed by the woman. 15,000 to 20,000 people have arrived, and many policemen have come. Bernard didn't seem to notice the crowd or the police at all. This time, she was fascinated for an hour and talked with the woman, but she didn't get a response to the priest's request and the woman didn't say goodbye. Bernard thinks the performance is over; In order to avoid causing trouble to her family, she never goes to the cave again. But on the night of March 24, she felt the call again and asked her to go to the cave again. Sure enough, on March 25th, the woman appeared in front of her again. Bernard asked her name three times; Finally, the woman leaned over to her slightly and said "I am the flawless first child" in a trembling voice in the local dialect, and then disappeared without a trace. Bernard hurried to the priest; Along the way, she repeated this sentence for fear of forgetting it, because she didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.

At the beginning of March, a few days after the spring gushed out, Huo Ran, the first patient, recovered. Louis Britt is a quarry worker in Luther. A few years ago, my brother lost his life, his right eye was blind, his vision was the lowest, and he was in great pain. Dr Dawson can't stop the pain; Brad asked his daughter to bring some soil back from the hole. He put mud on his eyes and prayed that when he removed the mud and opened his eyes again, his vision would recover. He closed his left eye. Obviously, his right eye can see. He ran to the doctor's house, and the doctor said to him suspiciously, "If you can see it, read me a word!" " After that, the doctor wrote, "Brad is blind because of visual neurasthenia and will never be cured." As a result, Brad read this sentence without any difficulty.

A few days later, a 18-month-old baby contracted tuberculosis, and his whole body shrank into a ball. His mother saw the baby's absent eyes and stiff limbs, and she knew that she should stop pinning her hopes on medical skills. So she wrapped the child in an apron, ran to the cave, soaked the dying child in the spring for almost a quarter of an hour, and stubbornly insisted that God grant her prayers. Everyone on the sidelines scolded her. When she took the child out, the child's condition remained the same; Exhausted, she carried the child back, squatted beside the child and fell asleep wearily. When she woke up, the baby smiled at her, not only breathing normally, but also eating the mother's milk, and he recovered. The baby was examined by three doctors; One of them, Dr. Vergez, is a professor at Montpellier Medical College. He wrote in the inspection report: "The way Mrs. Du Gao treated her son completely violated experience and medicine, but God rewarded her faith and maternal love." The boy's nickname is Bouhohorts. At the age of 77, he was still a gardener in Bo. 1937 A total of 3,803 people died and were registered as sudden recovery in Luther. Among them, 648 people have tuberculosis, 329 people have tuberculosis, 83 people have skin diseases, 128 people have tumors or cancers, and so on. Obviously, Luther needs a special institution to check those who have recovered.

1885, the audit institution was established, with the purpose of examining patients immediately after their recovery. At least one year later, an international medical committee will be responsible for re-checking whether the patient relapses after rehabilitation and re-checking all the records before and after rehabilitation. Only in this way can we decide whether there is really some unexplained recovery in the medical field. As for all kinds of mental diseases or so-called suspected diseases guessed by patients themselves, if they are cured, they will not be checked and registered at all.

All patients who come to Lude for treatment must bring the medical records recorded by their attending doctors and submit them to the audit institution. This audit institution is a permanent institution and consists of three experts: one is a neurologist and a psychiatrist, the other is a cardiologist and the other is an X-ray expert. In addition, about 2000 doctors from 30 countries visit Luther every year. No matter what religion these doctors believe in, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism or atheism, as long as they are doctors, they have the right to examine patients and medical records.

Rural doctors and professors found many very strange cases here. A professor said, "I saw more cases in three days there than in three years in medical school." Next to the audit institution, there is a huge "medical research room" with the most modern equipment for experts to study.

Cautious doctors sometimes have illusions or diagnostic errors; However, it is impossible to make mistakes in diagnosing this disease with modern instruments. Due to the progress of physics and psychology, and the improvement of some special technologies, many strange cures can be explained by medicine; However, if there are some unexplained recoveries, modern medical instruments can undoubtedly prove their authenticity. The rules set by Catholicism more than 200 years ago are in line with the science beyond the times; Pope Benedict XIV issued a strict decree in 1750, demanding a precise distinction between truly magical treatments and ordinary treatments. He decided not to check all diseases that belong to mental illness or have lost their functions but their organs are still normal.

Modern science has been able to explain yoga and the supernatural skills of Indian monks, and has detected many strange phenomena and false miracles, but it has not affected the real miracles recognized by Catholicism at all; In fact, science also provides Catholicism with a way to prove its authenticity.

Inspection of recycled materials

Whenever a patient comes to the examination institution and says that he has recovered or his condition has improved, the institution will start to examine him; Doctors from other places can also participate in the examination and write reports. The organization also appointed a doctor to continue to pay attention to the patient's condition after the rehabilitation patient left Luther and keep in touch with his attending doctor to supplement the information record.

If the function of the organ is restored, but the symptoms of the organ are still there, the examination structure is just like mental illness, and it is not registered as "unexplained recovery" at all.

If the recovered person comes to Luther in the second year, the audit institution will discuss his medical records with the doctors present. Every doctor in Luther had the right to participate in the examination, discussion and opposition that day. They determined the fact that the patient was cured according to the following two points: First, it depends on the situation when the patient arrived in Luther. Second, whether the patient recovers suddenly can never be explained by medicine and natural laws.

The inspection is extremely strict, as long as there is a little suspicion; This record is not discussed at all. For example, 1946, 26 patients were cured by doctors; In the second year, 14 people returned to Luther, and only 4 of them recovered completely. In 1947, 75 recovered patients were registered. One year later, 1 1 returned, and only 6 people were finally recognized. 1948,15,800 patients came to Luther. Eighty-three rehabilitation patients were registered, and only five of them were admitted to the hospital. Of course, if there is cancer, it will take four or five years to determine the authenticity of its recovery.

All the records of the absolutely unexplained healers were sent to the Bishop of Luther, who reported the matter to the International Medical Committee. This committee consists of 36 doctors from 10 different countries. These doctors meet in Paris almost every year. 1968, two members of the organization were members of the Institute of Medicine, seven university professors, the director of a university laboratory and the director of Madame Curie Hospital at that time. These members are not selected by the church, but by the medical Committee itself. If this international medical committee also declares that these cures can never be explained by medicine, then the local bishop of the cured person will start to study the patient's rehabilitation in detail to see if it is closely related to religion; Only in this way can we prove that the recovery of patients is the effect of patients sincerely praying to God. After a rigorous examination, the bishop clearly declared: "We have every reason to believe that recovery is not by medicine or manpower, but by the grace of the merciful God." Such a recovery is regarded by Catholicism as a "miracle"; In other words, it is a miracle that the medical research institute can't explain it, but it is closely related to religion.

From 1858 to 1968, doctors announced 1200 cases of medically unexplained rehabilitation, but only 62 cases were recognized as miracles by the church (22 cases occurred after 1946). This is enough to prove the severity and caution of the church authorities' review. Sometimes, some people who have recovered can't collect information about their illness, so they can't be recognized by the audit institutions; There are also atheistic doctors who deliberately don't hand over the information in their hands, so the cured people can't be recognized by the audit institutions. A Miss Lombardy in Marseille suffered from tuberculosis in the third stage, but she was cured in Luthor on August 23rd, 2008.
