It turns out that the priest isn’t the official exorcist of his diocese but likely has faculties from the bishop, which isn’t much of a difference.

I truly believe that Father Jim Blount is a very Holy man and sincerely believes what he preaches and says. I believe that God does choose certain people to do his work. Father Jim does not gain any material rewards in terms of riches or power of any kind. How can he be a charlatan if he has gains nothing for himself. Why would he work so hard and be so passionate then? Could he be delusional or mentally ill, If so, then many clergy and religious people would be also. So I believe he is the real deal. I would love to take part in one of his retreats one day.
I am not sure what to make of Fr Blount. I do know he also constantly promotes Medjugorie despite not being approved by local bishops. I confess I am suspicious. Did he even consult with his superiors before divulging his “visions” publicly?
I like him but he endorses political candidates as divinely chosen.
I have been listening to Father Blount on YouTube for a number of weeks now , and I can’t but help the feeling that the man is a charlatan….
He is the real thing. Go to confession with him and you will have no doubts.
I attended the seminary with Fr. Blount in the late 1990s. Fr. Jim was a faithful man and a member of SOLT. I haven’t been in contact with him since those days in the seminary. I believe Fr. Jim is being sincere and honest in his recollection of his vision of the BVM. Since this experience falls under the category of Private Revelation it is not necessary to accept it as being a divine message. However, if it is helpful to one’s faith then it can be accepted but is to be used wisely.
Its concerning that the same YouTube channel promotes Medjugorje as well as the article link that has Fathers vission.
Thanks Anthony for all the work you do to give us a heads up about heaven’s retaliation against our sinful times. I put ‘Did This Priest Have A Vision of the Three Days of Darkness’ in the preponderance of evidence category, or another indication that God’s retribution will be upon soon.
We have received many warnings over hundreds of years, that unless the world and the Church grow closer to God amend their ways, something bad was going to happen to us. These warnings by and large have been ignored and ridiculed especially within the institutional Catholic Church, a Church that has gone so far as to approve immorality by words, indifference and in some cases outright encouragement.
God has been most long suffering and patient with us. This last vision of the Three Days of Darkness can be seen as another indication that some sort of chastisement is coming soon..
