Touching apparitions?	Omar	Wednesday, November 4, 2009
Question: Hello Brother, Have any visionaries who've been aproved by the church actually physically touched our Blessed Mother or Christ during a vision? Also, have there been visionaries over the years whose visions the church has undoubtedly deemed demonic? Thanks, and God Bless you and your ministry.
Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OLSM+ Dear Omar: Sorry for the great delay in answering. We have been offline for three weeks getting set-up on a new server. To my knowledge not every visionary (approved) has been physically touched by our Blessed Mother or our Lord as the case may be. Most of these experiences are spiritual nature, rather then physical. As for the unapproved visions, the Church judges the visions to be of supernatural origin (meaning they are from heaven) or not. When they are not of supernatural the Church only say that the visions are either the imagination of the visionary or otherwise not of God. The Church, to my knowledge does not directly declare the visions demonic. God Bless, Bro. Ignatius Mary Footer Notes: This forum is for general questions on the faith.
