The Christian Trumpet Gaudentius Rossi

In The Christian Trumpet there are many other predictions supposed to have been made by eminent servants of God whose process of beatification has already been or is being introduced in Rome. Such is, for instance, the case with the Venerable Anna-Maria Taigi, Venerable Abbé Vianney, Curé d'Ars, Venerable Elizabeth Mora, Sister Rose Columba of Taggia, etc. Now, in these circumstances, our wise and prudent ecclesiastical superiors will never attempt to forestall the impending solemn judgment of the holy and infallible Roman See by their formal approbation of the prophetical previsions and predictions of these servants of God. Hence, those who clamor for such approbation show more zeal than true wisdom, and evidently fall into the fault which they presume to censure in Pellegrino. In the First Part it has been judged proper to collect and arrange those prophetical predictions, the main object of which evidently is to warn mankind about impending serious and more or less general calamities. In the Second Part he is gratified by being able to give many prophecies of a more cheering and hopeful nature, announcing the fast-approaching universal triumph of the true faith and holy religion of Jesus Christ. The Third Part, if more gloomy and saddening to worldlings, will prove very useful to the true believer, and full of solid hope for the virtuous Christian soul, with fervent aspirations for the end of sin, and the general resurrection to glory of the elect of God.
