Summary/Abstract: Sister Faustina Helena Kowalska (1905–1938), the Secretary of Divine Mercy discovered the richness of the eschatological mystery, showing heaven, purgatory, hell, along with the perspective of Parousia and abundance of the Communion of Saints. These truths, invariably proclaimed in the Catholic Church for centuries. Faustina not only strongly believed in them, but also experienced their realities. Her testimony is of great importance to all, both believers and people who do not admit their faith in Christ preached in the Church. The Saint lived and experienced God’s love, which is deeply reflected in the Four Last Things. So it was natural for her to experience the presence of Jesus Christ, who was for her a real, living reality she was experiencing throughout her life.
