Since Poland was a Communist country at this time, it was difficult to get an accurate translation out of Poland to Rome to clear up the misunderstandings. Therefore the ban remained for about twenty years. However, the Cardinal of Krakow, the late Pope John Paul II, asked a prominent Polish theologian to examine her Diary. The theologian wanted nothing to do with the project, but once he began to read her writings he ended up devoting a good part of his life to this project. He and others were impressed by the fact that St. Faustina, who had such a minimal education, wrote so clearly and carefully about the Mystical life. Six months before he became Pope, Cardinal Wojtyla lifted the ban on the Divine Mercy Message that had come to St. Faustina. Some are now proposing this simple farm girl as a Doctor of the Church. Her infused knowledge is clearly a grace from God.
