Apparitions, revelations: a mystical experience but not for everyone

There are many saints and ordinary people who, over time, have revealed that they had the apparition of Angels, Jesus and Mary.
The Virgin Mary appeared in Medjugorje, for example, giving messages for peace as did Our Lady of Fatima in Portugal or with Our Lady of Lourdes.

Pope Francis affirms that the Church is always very prudent. He never puts rooted faith on the apparitions. Faith is rooted in the Gospel, in revelation, in the tradition of revelation. Before declaring the truthfulness of the apparitions, the Church collects the testimonies by examining them thoroughly, letting herself be guided by the Holy Spirit for the necessary evaluation.

This is because only a devout person can distinguish, with the help of spiritual guides, the apparitions "good from bad". After all, evil can take on any appearance and can even suggest us.
Even if an apparition were recognized as truthful, it will never be imposed as a doctrine of the Church on us faithful because we are free to believe or not in these events, even in those recognized.

No apparition can ever add anything to faith.
Each of us is free from any bond, but if he believes he can follow the trail of the messages relating to the apparitions, which often serve to convert, to call to faith those who have strayed from them. Anyone who has the desire, on a daily basis, to get as close to God as possible, can easily decide in their heart whether an apparition reflects the Christian spirit.
Fearing God is wisdom and dodging evil is intelligence
