Bhuku rinonzi The Keys of This Blood: The Struggle for World Dominion Between Pope John Paul II, Mikhail Gorbachev, and the Capitalist West, rakanyorwa naMalachi Martin, uye rakatanga kubudiswa muna 1990. Martin anoongorora basa raPope John Paul II semunhu akachinja zvikuru zvematongerwo enyika enyika yose pamwe chete nezvekudyidzana kwenyika panguva yehafu yechipiri yezana remakore rechi20. Anokurukura nezvebasa raPope mukuparara kweCommunism muEastern Europe. Bhuku iri rinopa maonero eRoma Katurike pamusoro pemasimba akaita kuti ndima yechina makumi mana yaDhanieri gumi neimwe izadziswe, panguva yokupedzisira muna 1989.
Martin anoongorora mafambiro emukati meSoviet Union pasi pehutungamiri hwaMikhail Gorbachev, achinyanya kutarisa pamitemo yaGorbachev ye“glasnost” (kuvhurika) ne“perestroika” (kuumbazve patsva). Anokurukura matambudziko akanga akatarisana neSoviet Union pamwe chete nekuedza kwaGorbachev kugadzirisa hurongwa hweCommunist. Anoongorora kusawirirana kwezvematongerwo enyika epasi rose pamwe nekurwira masimba pakati peSoviet Union (mambo wokumaodzanyemba—dhiragoni), Chechi yeKatorike (mambo wokuchamhembe—chikara), uye zvaanoti nyika dzeMadokero dzine hurongwa hwekapitalisiti (uto rinomiririra mambo wokuchamhembe—muporofita wenhema). Anokurukura kupesana kwemafungiro, ujasusi, pamwe chete nemabasa akavanzika aizivisa nguva yeHondo Yemashoko, uye anoongorora kuedza kwevatambi vakasiyana-siyana kuumba remangwana renyika.
Martin anokoshesa umuhimu wa Ukatoliki kama nguvu katika siasa za dunia na diplomasia. Anasema kwamba Kanisa Katoliki, chini ya uongozi wa Papa John Paul II, lilitekeleza wajibu wa msingi sana katika kuunda mkondo wa historia katika kipindi hicho na katika kuathiri matokeo ya Vita Baridi. Anaweka ushawishi wa John Paul katika muktadha wa maono ya Mariamu huko Fatima, Ureno, na anatambua ushawishi wa Fatima juu ya matukio ya ulimwengu pamoja na nafasi ya Kanisa Katoliki katika kuunda mkondo wa historia. Martin anapendekeza kwamba matukio ya Fatima yana athari kubwa za kinabii na za kijiografia-kisiasa, hasa katika muktadha wa enzi ya Vita Baridi.
Martin anoongorora zvakavanzika zvitatu zveFatima, izvo zvinonzi zvakazarurwa neMhandara Maria kuvana vatatu vaduku vaiva vafudzi muFatima muna 1917. Anoti chakavanzika chechitatu, icho pakutanga chakachengetwa chakavanzika neVatican uye chakazongoziviswa chete muna 2000, chaiva nezviyambiro zvemagumo enyika pamusoro peramangwana reChechi yeKatorike nenyika. Martin anopikisa kuti zviitiko zvepaFatima, kusanganisira kuonekwa kwacho nemashoko akaunzwa neMhandara Maria, zvaiva nezvazvaireva zvikuru mune zvematongerwo enyika zvepasi rose uye mukurwisana pakati pechikomunizimu nechikapitalizimu munguva yeCold War.
Martin anoburitsa basa raPapa John Paul II somunhu akakosha mukuzadzika kwezviporofita zveFatima. Anoratidza kuti John Paul II aizviona sa“bhishopi akapfeka zvichena” anotaurwa muchakavanzika chechitatu cheFatima, uye kuti aiona hupapa hwake semishoni yokutarisana nemasimba ezvakaipa nokusimudzira kuvandudzwa kwemweya mukati meChechi yeKatorike nomunzanga yose zvayo.
Martin anoti mashoko eFatima akasimbisa kukosha kwehondo yomweya uye kudikanwa kweChechi yeKaturike kusangana zvakasimba nemasimba ezvakaipa, ari mukati meChechi nokunze kwayo. Anopikisa kuti zvakaitika paFatima zvakapa hwaro hwomweya nehwehunhu hwokunzwisisa nokugadzirisa zvinetso zviri kutarisana norudzi rwavanhu munyika yazvino. Mashoko eFatima anomirira shoko raSatani rinogadzirira Katurike kuti igamuchire Satani saKristu, pa“anotevedzera” Kristu pamutemo weSvondo uri kuuya nokukurumidza.
“Satana achashanda minana kuti anyengedze avo vanogara panyika. Zvemidzimu zvichaita basa razvo nokukonzera kuti vakafa vatevedzerwe sokunge ndivo vari kuonekwa. Masangano ezvitendero anoramba kunzwa mashoko aMwari okunyevera achava pasi pokunyengedzwa kukuru, uye achabatana nesimba rehurumende kuti atambudze vatsvene.

Mpinga-Kristo ni ishara ya Papa wa Roma na pia ya Shetani, kwa kuwa papa wa Roma ndiye mwakilishi wa Shetani duniani. “Hivyo Shetani anyang’anya mamlaka ya Yehova. Yule mtu wa dhambi huketi katika kiti cha Mungu, akijitangaza mwenyewe kuwa Mungu, na kutenda juu ya Mungu.” Shetani anakusudia kuudhibiti ulimwengu kiasi hicho atakapoutwaa utawala, hata ataamuru “kwa wanadamu kana kwamba wao ni raia wa ufalme wake, watendewe na watawaliwe na kudhibitiwa apendavyo.” Ili awe na kiti cha enzi cha kidini atakachotawala kutoka juu yake, aliliumba Kanisa Katoliki; na ili awe na kiti cha enzi cha kisiasa atakachotawala kutoka juu yake, aliumba Umoja wa Mataifa.

Chishamiso chekuFatima, pamwe chete nouporofita hwayo hwaSatani, ndizvo zvakashandiswa naSatani kugadzirira mamiriro ezvinhu eporofita anobvumira chiKatorike kukurumidza kuisa kereke yavo pasi pekutongwa kwake, paanenge aonekwa uye achizviita Kristu. Kuzviita kwake Kristu kunotanga pamutemo weSvondo uri kuuya nokukurumidza, unomiririrwa mundima yegumi nenhanhatu, ndima yemakumi maviri nemiviri, ndima yemakumi matatu neimwe, uye ndima yemakumi mana neimwe yaDhanieri chitsauko chegumi nerimwe.
“Kuburikidza nemutemo unosimbisa kugadzwa kweUpapa uchityora murayiro waMwari, nyika yedu ichazvipatsanura zvizere nokururama.

Pamutemo wemusi weSvondo paunenge wavapo muUnited States, “nguva yasvika yekushanda kunoshamisa kwaSatani.” Muna Zvakazarurwa chitsauko chegumi nematatu, ndima yegumi neimwe, United States “rinotaura” seshato, uyezve mundima yegumi nenhatu, inongoratidza zviri kuitika apo United States “rinotaura,” nokupfuudza mutemo weSvondo, Satani anooneka achidana moto kuti uburuke uchibva kudenga.

Sezvakataurwa naMalachi Martin mubhuku rake, Papa John Paul akatungamirirwa nokuzvipira kwake kuna Maria weFatima. Chiporofita chakavanzika cheFatima, chisina kuziviswa kusvikira mugore ra2000, zvamazvirokwazvo chaiva chiporofita chaSatani; asi mumazuva okupedzisira Jesu anodzokorora mazuva okutangira. Bhuku rekare-kare muBhaibheri, bhuku rokutanga rakanyorwa naMosesi, ibhuku raJobho, uye rinoratidza kuti Jobho, anomiririra vane zviuru zana namakumi mana nezvina, nokuti zviporofita zvose zvinozadzikiswa zvakakwana zvikurusa mumazuva okupedzisira. Satani, munyaya yaJobho, anotenderwa kuunza rufu nokuparadza pamusoro paJobho, nechinangwa chokuedza Jobho. Zvishamiso izvo Satani anotenderwa kuita mumazuva okupedzisira, zvishamiso zvechokwadi. Zvishamiso zvaSatani, asi Mwari akatendera Satani kuti aite chiito chake chokupedzisira chinokosha zvikuru, nechikonzero chimwe chete chaakabvumira Satani kuedza Jobho.
“Vazhinji vanoedza kutsanangura zvinoonekwa zvemweya vachiti zvinobva chose pakunyengera nokukurumidza kwemaoko kunoitwa nemedium.

“Vanhu ava vanofuratira uchapupu hweMagwaro pamusoro pezvishamiso zvinoitwa naSatani nevamiriri vake. Vakanga vari nerubatsiro rwaSatani kuti n’anga dzaFaro dzikwanise kutevedzera basa raMwari.

Mauthenga eFatima ebhukwini likaMalachi Martin amelwe njengesakhiwo sesiprofetho sobuKatolika ezinsukwini zokugcina, maqondana nokungqubuzana kwangaphakathi eBandleni, okungamelwa njengopapa omuhle ebhekene nopapa omubi, noma njengopapa olondolozayo ebhekene nopapa okhululekile. Upapa olondolozayo, futhi ngokokuhumusha kukaMartin ngesimangaliso, upapa omuhle, usekela ukuqonda kwakhe eMkhandlwini Wokuqala waseVatican, owaziwa futhi ngokuthi iVatican I, owabanjwa kusukela mhla ziyisi-8 kuZibandlela 1869 kuya mhla zingama-20 kuNtulikazi 1870, wabizelwa uPapa Pius IX, futhi wagxila ikakhulukazi ekuchazeni imfundiso eyisidima yokungaphambuki kukapapa nasekubhekaneni nezindaba ezihlukahlukene zemfundiso yenkolo nezemfundiso ezazibhekene neBandla lamaKatolika ngaleso sikhathi. UMkhandlu Wesibili waseVatican, ovame ukwaziwa ngokuthi iVatican II, wabanjwa emuva kakhulu, kusukela mhla ziyi-11 kuMfumfu 1962 kuya mhla ziyisi-8 kuZibandlela 1965. Wabizelwa uPapa John XXIII futhi waqhubekiswa uPapa Paul VI emva kokufa kukaJohn XXIII.
Amasuku okuphela obuKatolika, njengoko uMartin wachazayo, achonga umzabalazo phakathi kokungaphazami nokongamela kwebandla laseRoma njengoko kwamiselwa eVatican I, xa kuthelekiswa neliberalism ebonakaliswayo ngoku nguFrancis, “u-pope ovukileyo,” yaye emelwe ngamaxwebhu eVatican II. UMartin ucebisa ukuba phakathi kwalo mzabalazo wale ndlela zimbini zokulawula ibandla, iMfazwe Yehlabathi yesiThathu iyaqhambuka, aze uYesu abuye, ehlele emhlabeni, abeke intsikelelo yakhe phezu kukapopu olungileyo, aze athabathe itrone yebandla lamaKatolika.
Mundima 13 kusvikira 15 dzaDanieri 11, nhoroondo inotangira pakarepo mutemo weSvondo uri mundima 16, inotsanangura hondo yechitatu neyokupedzisira yehondo dzinorwiwa kuburikidza nevamiririri.

Ngokuka-Isaya, isifebe saseRoma siyasakhohlakala ngesikhathi sokubusa okungokomfanekiso kweminyaka engamashumi ayisikhombisa kombuso wesithupha wesiprofetho seBhayibheli. Ngokokuqala ngqa ubupapa bumiswa esihlalweni emhlabeni ngo-538, uphawu lwendlela olwandulela ukumiswa kwabo esihlalweni kwakuyisimemezelo sikaJustinian ngo-533.
Nhoroondo yakakomberedza chirevo chaJustinian inoratidza kuti Justinian aitsvaka kusimbisa kutonga kwake pamusoro poushe hwake nokupedzisa gakava rechitendero rakanga richikonzera mhirizhonga muumambo hwacho. Gakava iroro raiva rokuti kereke yaiva muConstantinople kumabvazuva, kana kuti kereke yaiva muRoma kumadokero, ndiyo yaiva musoro wekereke inonzi yechiKristu. Mundima yegumi netatu, mutungamiri wekupedzisira weUnited States achaonana negakava richamumanikidza kuenzanisa nhoroondo yaJustinian, uye kuzivisa kuti kereke yeKatorike ndiyo musoro wemakereke, uye mururamisi wavanyengeri, kuti agadzire rutsigiro rwezvematongerwo enyika runodiwa kuti asimbise simba rake.
Hatifaniri kuisa chivimbo chipi nechipi muzviporofita zvaFatima zvinobva kuna Satani, asi tinosungirwa kuona zvinoratidzwa muShoko raMwari.

Munguva iyoyo chaiyo yenguva, mambo wokumaodzanyemba wemazuva ano anotanga nhoroondo yake neChimurenga cheRussia, uye mambo wokumaodzanyemba kwekuchamhembe wemazuva ano anotanga nhoroondo yake nechishamiso cheFatima. Sezvinotsinhirirwa naMalachi Martin mubhuku rake, kunze kwekurwisana kwemukati pakati papapa akanaka napapa akaipa, mashoko eFatima akaratidza kurwisana kweKaturike nekusatenda kuna Mwari kazhinji, asi zvikuru sei nekusatenda kuna Mwari kweRussia. Chakavanzika icho papapa muna 1917 aifanira kuita maererano nacho chaiva nechivimbiso (chaSatani) chokuti, kana papapa aizodaidza konikirave uye akakumikidza Russia kuna Mhandara Maria, ipapo kwaisazova nehondo yenyika yechipiri.
