When the apostles receive the holy spirit in Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4), the apostle Peter interprets a prophecy of Joel referring to the day of the birth of the church:
"In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy." Acts 2:17-18.
Joel is considered the prophet of Pentecost. Jesus like Joel, also prophesies the holy spirit to the disciples: "Everyone will be salted with fire. ´Salt is good, but if it loses its saltiness, how can you make it salty again? Have salt among yourselves, and be at peace with each other.´" Mark 9:49-50.
God pours out his spirit, that is, he gives us his essence the wisdom, to those who fear him (constancy, firmness, devotion, equanimity). The bible summarizes the spiritual duties of man: "Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man", Ecclesiastes 12:13
The wisdom that reveals the secret, the eternal, always comes from above, from the perfect. In the bible God pour out his spirit in the moments necessary to prophesy and make visions according to the eternal providence. The bible is a sealed book, knowing how to read does not mean knowing how to interpret, the bible is a book sealed by the gift of understanding that comes from the gift of wisdom: "He opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.", Luke 24:45.
Today the third secret of Fatima can be interpreted as a descent from wisdom to the physical plane, a new Pentecost in these modern times. The secrets of Fatima carry enormous weight in the upper echelons of the Vatican. Today we live in the times of Samuel and the Witch of Endor, where the rich people pay for illusory visions; and the spirituality reduced to moral norms and meditation exercises, no one consults the thoughts of God to obtain wisdom. We need to go back to the times of Pentecost, we are in the last days.
