Angels are the messengers of God, not dead human beings. The Bible makes this clear. No one there "tested the spirit" as the Bible commands you to do in such a situation. Not one word was mentioned about the apparition stating to them "I'm a messenger of God" as the Bible clearly states they do upon arrival. The apparition never stated "Jesus Christ has came in the flesh", as the Bible mentions as a test of the spirits, as demonic spirits are not able to utter such words.

Looks like clear demonic deception to me. Maybe I should go ask some Earthly man to absolve me of my sins (Since that's how Catholics roll, which renders Jesus completely useless) and follow his orders to light candles and send up a prayer to a dead female human though, just in case I'm wrong. I'll make sure I do this in front of a giant, idolatrous statue of her and wait for the Vicar of Christ (In place of Christ) aka The Pope, to tell me what to think, because reading Gods Word to man is useless, only the Vicar of Christ speaks for God.

Or maybe....I'll just see it for it obviously is. Clear demonic deception.

OK, well I kind of doubt Satan would want to stress folks getting back to God (specifically Jesus), go to confession and pray without ceasing. If this is Satan masquerading in Medjugorje, he has utterly failed. Thousands upon thousands have been awakened in their faith and I don’t mean Allah. By the way, do your homework: these kids/adults have tested the spirit of Mary for years now. Sigh.

So the "Virgin Mary" got people to go back to confessing their sins to a MAN (not God/Jesus), and got them to go ask a MAN (not God/Jesus) for absolution for their sins. Gets them to pray to Mary (not God), and Satan is doing a horrible job of deception?

I don't know, to get all these people to do exactly what the scriptures tell them explicitly NOT to do while others defend it sounds like a pretty great job to me.

Also, I have done my homework. There is not one single account of a "Virgin Mary" apparition ever being tested like the Bible orders you to do. Just many accounts of people oogling over something supernatural because it lifted them out of their mundane existence and showed them the spiritual world is real so they did not question anything else about it, but were absolutely fascinated instead. Sounds like the perfect targets for a deception to me.

Christ Himself instituted the Sacrament of Reconciliation when, after instituting the priesthood at the Last Supper, and upon giving Peter the keys to the kingdom, He told Peter that the sins he forgave would be forgiven, and the sins he retained would be retained. Even if you reject that, Protestants do, since we are biblically exhorted to confess to one another, why not confess to a priest...even if you don’t believe he is qualified to hear confessions and absolve sins in persona Christi.

If you did your homework, as you assert, you would know that the Medjugorge visionaries have been exhaustively tested, as have all visionaries and locutionists deemed worthy of investigation by the Catholic Church; there are multiple references available online, including a long YouTube video. Authentic visionaries also protect themselves personally from deception with prayer, discernment, the use of sacramentals, and the support of a spiritual director; they are also protected by the sacramental life of the Church.
