Johannes Friede was an Austrian monk of the Order of St. John who died in 1257 AD.
“When the great time will come, in which mankind will face its last, hard trial, it will be foreshadowed by striking changes in nature; the alteration between cold and heat will become more intensive, storms will have more catastrophic effects, earthquakes will destroy greater regions and the seas will overflow many lowlands. Not all of it will be the result of natural causes, but man will penetrate into the bowels of the earth and will reach into the clouds, gambling with its own existence.
NOTE: This is a striking beginning to this prophecy. Here Friede prophesies that these natural disturbances in nature will be not just the result of natural changes but also changes brought on by man, who is increasingly “penetrating into the bowels of the earth” with mining and “reaching into the clouds” with pollution, which, we are told, is the biggest factor in global warming.
