Have you read "THE POEM OF THE MAN-GOD" by Maria Valtorta ?

Question

"Those who read it (with a sincere desire to know) will understand."

The book has received the imprimatur and approval of several Catholic Bishops and Cardinals worldwide , but the official position of the Holy See with respect to the book is currently less than clear. Since 1993 the Vatican has decided to remain silent on the work. Given the endorsements provided for the book in the visions of the Virgin Mary reported at Medjugorje in 1981, if and when the Holy See selects a position on Medjugorje, it may also be viewed as having selected a position on the work of Maria Valtorta.

Answer 1

i believe that church sectors are counter productive to some degree. partiality, and segregation don't become Christianity.

i do appreciate reading anything enlightening to people interested in Christian learning if it has no barriers. other peoples' opinions are a great help, from time to time.

Answer 2

James O..........it is NOT condemned by the Church.

The church does not endorse the book, yet does not ban it either, although church officials (including Cardinal Ratzinger in 1985) have made occasional comments about it. The last formal action taken by the Vatican with respect to the book was in 1992, when Dionigi Cardinal Tettamanzi, the Secretary General of the Italian Bishops' Conference, wrote to the publisher Emilio Pisani. In his letter, Cardinal Tettamanzi requested that a paragraph be added to the first few pages of the book disclaiming any supernatural origin for the work. The publisher assumes that the letter indicates that the Italian Bishops' Conference sees nothing in the work that contradicts the doctrines of the Church, yet some detractors claim that the letter intended to classify the work as fiction. Since 1992 the Catholic Church has chosen to remain silent on its position with respect to the work.

Answer 3

All my spiritual directors and advisers have encouraged me NOT" to waste my time" on something condemned by the Church.

For the most part I do not read many private revelations and I do not read condemned or even unapproved alleged locutions ,visions and revelations since there are so many really good spiritual classics,apologetic works, Church Fathers and Doctors,witnessings and histories(not to mention the Catechism and the Bible,the inspired Written Word of God)
