   Ingen Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog.   ) Kim.Sasso | Aug 27, 2023 |  Natt90 | Jul 20, 2022 |  ) joannemonck | Mar 18, 2020 | "The Third Secret" is sorta based on true events. In Fatima, Portugal in 1917 three shepherd children had claimed that the "Virgin Mother" came to them in a vision and told them three secrets. The secrets were to be revealed at specific times and the last one not until after 1960. Pope John Paul in 1981 revealed the last secret but some feel it was incorrect and incomplete. This book takes you into a writers realm of what that secret is and how important it is to the world. When the last secret is revealed it's so shocking that the people in the church are willing to kill to keep it from being released. Everyone is so wrapped up in what the secret is that they take it for absolute truth and forgetting what the Bible really says, which the secret contradicts. Again I know this is just the writers version but I was really disappointed in the end. You can't pick and choose things in the Bible to believe, either you believe it all or you believe nothing. You also can't pick and choose things from it to fit your lifestyle or condemn others for theirs. I felt that he ended it on popular beliefs rather then traditional ones to appease the masses.

HTML:Explosive in both its pace and its revelations, The Third Secret is a remarkable international thriller. Bestselling author Steve Berry tackles some of the most controversial ideas of our time in a breakneck journey through the history of the Church and the future of religion. Fatima, Portugal, 1917: The Virgin Mary appears to three peasant children, sharing with them three secrets, two of which are soon revealed to the world. The third secret is sealed away in the Vatican, read only by popes, and not disclosed until the year 2000. When revealed, its quizzical tone and anticlimactic nature leave many faithful wondering if the Church has truly unveiled all of the Virgin Mary’s words–or if a message far more important has been left in the shadows. Vatican City, present day: Papal secretary Father Colin Michener is concerned for the Pope. Night after restless night, Pope Clement XV enters the Vatican’s Riserva, the special archive open only to popes, where the Church’s most clandestine and controversial documents are stored. Though unsure of the details, Michener knows that the Pope’ s distress stems from the revelations of Fatima. Equally concerned, but not out of any sense of compassion, is Alberto Cardinal Valendrea, the Vatican’s Secretary of State,. Valendrea desperately covets the papacy, having narrowly lost out to Clement at the last conclave. Now the Pope’s interest in Fatima threatens to uncover a shocking ancient truth that Valendrea has kept to himself for many years. When Pope Clement sends Michener to the Romanian highlands, then to a Bosnian holy site, in search of a priest–possibly one of the last people on Earth who knows Mary’s true message– a perilous set of events unfolds. Michener finds himself embroiled in murder, suspicion, suicide, deceit, and his forbidden passion for a beloved woman. In a desperate search for answers, he travels to Pope Clement’s birthplace in Germany, where he learns that the third secret of Fatima may dictate the very fate of the Church–a fate now lying in Michener’s own hands.
