Summary/Abstract: Private revelation is, as we see on the example of “Fatima apparitions”, undoubte dly the most prophetic of modern apparitions, a manifestation of divine truth given to selected people (children) for the universal benefit of the Church and the world. In contrast to public Revelation, private revelation has as its purpose not the revealing of new doctrine, but rather the guiding of humanity in its eff orts to incorporate more fully the truths of the Gospel already contained in public Revelation. The criterion for judging the truth of a private revelation is its orientation to Christ himself. A private revelation can give rise to new forms of piety, or deepen older ones. It can be a valuable aid for better understanding and living the Gospel at a certain time.
