…” Every sin will be adjudged to be acceptable…” (Book of Truth: 28th November, 2014)
“The sins of man will be elevated before My Eyes and placed before My Altars,…”(Book of Truth: 28th November, 2014)
Prophecy Fulfilled:
In the following examples – these sins have been given approval and “elevated” by the hierarchy of the Church. Many are against the 6th Commandment; others mock or denigrate the Faith / Sacraments (Luther, Holy Communion, Marriage)
Co-habitation: PF/FP praises people co-habiting and calls their unholy unions ‘true marriages’, while, at the same time calling “most marriages” (ie. sacramental ones) not true marriages.
Confession: Denial of the need for firm purpose of amendment in relation to forgiveness of confessed sins
Communion to adulterers: See our posts on ‘Amoris Laetitia’.
Communion to those living in irregular situations including homosexual relationships
Sins of the Flesh: Who am I to judge?– (Approval of practicing homosexuals and the promotion of vice)
Archbishop with homoerotic painting installed as Head of Pontifical Academy for Life
Same-sex marriage – mockery of the Sacrament of Marriage:
Blessing of homosexual unionsby German bishops
Lutherans encouraged to participate in Holy Communion, sacreligiously
Luther statue at Vatican; also on postage stamp; and PF’s participation in his 500th anniversary, as if he was a saint
Recognizing infidelity in second union as being fruitful and beneficial to spouses and children and unavoidable, ‘humanly speaking’ (Denying the Grace of God).
Misuse and misappropriation of church funds: money trustingly donated for Catholic purposes are being mis-used to fund ungodly personal lifestyles, to distribute contraception in poorer countries, millions of dollars disappeared or corruptively invested.
Sins against the First Commandment:
Pagan worship (Pachamama Oct 2019) in Vatican Gardens by pope and bishops with all the bells and whistles of a pagan ceremony promoted as a “Consecration” of the Amazonian synod
Pope Francis (FP) blesses these idols
The carrying of these idols in procession, mocking the Procession of the holy Eucharist.
Pagan ritual bowl on altar whilst Mass is celebrated at the closing ceremony of the Amazonian synod.
Once upon a time, many sinful acts were also crimes- murder, euthanasia, abortion, suicide/voluntary assisted dying, transgender rights, same-sex marriage. The innocence of our children is being taken away bu various ‘civil liberties’ groups who use discrimination laws to their advantage. So we have transgender and two mums, /two dads storytelling in public libraries. Pre-schools have these books as part of their curriculum. The 10 Commandments which were once the pillar of the Civilized world, are being demolished by evil laws. This in turn, is demolishing our once civilized nations, and our innocent children. Ten years ago, we could not have envisioned the extent to which these evil laws are spreading – as if nations are trying to out-do each other. All of society is being brought under the yoke of slavery to the devil and his evil henchmen.
Prophecy:”Evil laws, enshrined in your nations”
“…every moral act and deed will be declared to beinhumane and against civil liberty.
“…Sin today, is embraced with relish and promoted as being a civil right and therefore you are expected to respect it. If you do not show respect towards sinful acts, then you could find that you will be guilty of a crime. Your crime will be that you uphold the Word of God and for that you will be made to suffer.
How easily man is fooled by the global plan to banish any form of guilt for sinful acts,which are being written into the laws of your nations. All of these things have been foretold and very soon not one wrongful act including murder, euthanasia and abortion will be deemed to be wrong. A time will come when genocide on a grand scale, will follow the introduction of such laws, which will be designed to make legal the lawful killing of those who suffer disabilities and other physical conditions.
Evil laws, enshrined in your nations, will lead to greater laws, which will take all power away from you. You have given authority to those who deny Me – who despise the Laws of God – and because of this, they will introduce more wicked acts, which will cause unimaginable suffering.What may appear to be laws of the land, that promote civil and humane rights, will lead to a form of dictatorship, which will make it an offense to be a Christian.
(December 28, 2014 Message 1298: “Protect My Word, Speak of My Word”)
“No man can justify murder – abortion, execution or euthanasia. No one. This is a mortal sin and the punishment is an eternal life in hell.
…. They even pass laws, which make it not only acceptable, but excusable, in the eyes of God. But it is not.” …
…Thou shalt not kill means you cannot kill another human being. It does not refer to self-defense, but in every other circumstance.
26 January 2012 @ 9:40am; Message 0318
Prophecies Fulfilled:
Most of these laws now exist all over the world. They have been spreading like an unquenchable fire over the past few years.
Abortion… Extreme abortion laws have now passed in most states of Australia. These include abortion till birth, and if babies are born alive, they are left to die, without intervention. An increasing trend now is gender-selective abortions.
A tale of 2 states : NSW and Qld:
When one state passed the law, the members of Parliament celebrated with champagne; in another state they celebrated with much cheering and clapping…
Even the freedom to pray and offer help to pregnant women, is outlawed in front of abortion clinics. Doctors and nurses have lost their jobs over their refusal to provide this ‘basic human right’ to mothers which immolates the basic human right to life for the baby.
Transgender rights – shared bathrooms; rights of school children to declare themselves transgender and so be able to share bedrooms with students of opposite sex, as well as compete in sports with a great, potential biological advantage. Also, now parents have no rights to counsel their children if they are gender-confused. Schools cannot refuse to take these children in.
Satanism– recognized as a religion and so is able to set up “satanic” after school clubs in U.S.A. Satanic statues set up in public squares; satanic signs and symbols freely used publicly. Satanic masses are legally held in council buildings, witchcraft and pagan practices promoted at festivals and in one case in Australia, black masses were attended by councillors.
Euthanasia – This law has already been enshrined in many countries, leading to an increase in euthanasia of the elderly, and even disabled children. At the moment, with much despair at loss of freedoms, work opportunities and an increase in the suicide rate, they are attempting, for these reasons, to present a law for Euthanasia into our State Parliament . Such laws already exist in other states.
In the Northern Territory, legal since 1995; South Australia – since June 2021; Victoria – since 2017;Western Austrralia – since 2019; Tasmania- since 2022. NSW has a bill being introduced at this moment – (September, 2021). The only thing stopping it, is that meetings of parliament have been suspended due to lockdowns.
Assisted Suicide / Voluntary Assisted dying: Australia, voluntary assisted dying (VAD) laws have been passed in all States. VAD laws have commenced operation in Victoria, Western Australia, Tasmania, Queensland, and South Australia. VAD will commence in New South Wales on 28 November 2023.
Same-sex marriagehas been legal in Australia since 2017.
In many countries, there have been Christian people who have been convicted of Discrimination, because they will not be bullied i to doing things which are against their beliefs. Making same-sex wedding cakes and performing wedding ceremonies, or holding receptions, are examples.
Other evil laws – Legislation in Australia:
The ACL (Australian Christian Lobby) is an amazing organization that keeps tabs on all Federal and State Governments in Australia and works hard to make people aware of evil laws being proposed, and to gather people to fight against them. In the following case, the law was defeated- 447:67 votes. It was the 14th attempt to introduce a law to decriminalise prostitution.
Recent headlines regarding the Legislation proposed in South Australia to decriminalise prostitution:
“ SA: Your opposition was heard for decriminalising prostitution”.
In State of Victoria, Australia: ( 17th August 2021).
Vic: Andrews and Patten give green light to pimps and traffickers
“Following a recommendation from Fiona Patten – former Sex Party, now Reason Party MP – the Andrews Government has announced they will move to decriminalise sex work.
This will open the way for street prostitution and remove existing barriers to pimps and traffickers….’
Seems as if the same thing occurs in various states at the same time.
Tasmania is the most repressive Australian state in relation to freedom of speech, especially religious speech. Even private conversations that “offend” are illegal under Section 17.
Section 17 of the Anti-Discrimination Act suppresses freedom. It says,
“A person must not engage in any conduct which offends, humiliates, intimidates, insults or ridicules another person on the basis of gender, race , age, sexual orientation, lawful sexual activity, gender identity, intersex variations of sex characteristics, marital status, breastfeeding, parental status, family responsibilities or disability in circumstances in which a reasonable person, having regard to all the circumstances, would have anticipated that the other person would be offended, humiliated, intimidated, insulted or ridiculed.”
Paganism, is probably the last thing any of us expected in the Church Jesus founded, least of all, that those at the top, would be responsible.The Book of Truth has many many messages and prophecies regarding this. We were well-warned.
In fact the Book of Truth has also many messages warning us about the political involvement of the Church, the medical ‘mandate’ and its effects, that was sprung upon us, as well as One world Currency, the mark of the beast, the Warning – in fact all that is explained in the Book of Revelation. These messages are a gift to us to warn and explain many things which are to come, so that we will not be fooled – so that we will be saved form the evil thrust upon us by evil men.
Prophecies:
“Pagans, on the other hand, in their quest for spiritual peace, seek out the Creation of the True God, rather than their Creator.Instead of laying themselves before God, My Father, the Almighty, Creator of all things, they lie prostrate before false idols, including the wonders He created for the world – the Earth, the sun, the moon and the stars.” https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0922/
“Any false dogma, which entices you to believe that peace in your heart and soul can be achieved through ancient spiritual practices must be avoided at all times. Learn to recognise them for what they really are.” (15 May, 2011)
“You will be asked to embrace paganism which will be disguised as Christianity”.( 2 Jan.2014)
“Dress up your pagan practices as much as you like to appear as if you are paying homage to the Divine Light of Heaven, but it will be a lie.The lie, and those you convince to follow thisbizarre journey towards a so-called spiritual realm, outside that of My Father’s,will bring you so close to Satan that beyond a certain point there will be no return”. (15 May, 2011
“My Church is also being desecrated by those who practice adoration of the beast.”(10 Oct. 2012)
Prophecies fulfilled:
The following examples show where paganism was inserted into Catholic prayers and practicesduring the synod
on 4th October 2019 at the very pagan ritual (see details of ceremony above) which was to consecrate the synod to St Francis of Assisi.
The Pope blessed the idols
The idols were carried in procession and placed in Santa Maria in Traspontina and displayed there for people to worship, making out that they are equal to any other Catholic image or statue
Bp. Schneider (2 Nov) told Remnant Newspaper that the idolatrous acts performed in St Peter’s are a “triumph of evil,”About Francis’ claim that Pachamama statues were used “without idolatrous intentions,” Schneider said that there were “in all evidence” acts of worship directed at a wooden statue representing Pachamama.
At the Vatican Garden ceremony on 4th October, the ritual was composed of prayers and adoration of these pagan idols.The pope and bishops were there.
The synod Fathers carried the idols in procession during a Way of the Cross
Whilst in the Traspotina church, different prayers were said each day to the Pachamama idols(before they were taken and thrown into the river.)
Prophecy fulfilled – The Desecration of the church (message of 10 Oct. 2012):
This prophecy was also fulfilled at the Amazonian Synod.
For example, people at the synod included:
The pope and bishopswho allowed this ceremony to take place onSacred Ground
Andall those who participated in the pagan ritual in the Vatican Garden on 4th July, 2019 –
Those who attended the ceremony – the pope, bishops,
a Franciscan Friar who bowed down to the ground in worship
Amazonians with face paint and feathers;
a sharman shaking her rattle and invoking the spirits;
The idols themselves which were placed in a Holy, Catholic church consecrated to Our Lady;
The black bowls of dirt (pagan ritual bowls) during the Mass at St Peter’s (see Fr Z.)
Two famous names associated with both the United Nations and abortion were on the guest list for the Amazon Synod:
“American economist Jeffrey Sachs, 64, and Korean former Secretary-General of the United Nations Ban Ki-moon, 75, are among the 185 people invited to the synod, which will take place in Rome between October 6 and 27.
Sachs is a special advisor to the current UN Secretary-General António Guterres on the UN’s “Sustainable Development Goals,” a role he played for Ki-Moon when he was Secretary-General…”
F/P’s encyclical -+“Laudato Si”(pagan light show on walls of Vatican; “sins against creation”…)
The announcement of Pope Francis of the “New Humanism”
And also of the “New Evangelisation”
The F/P’s talk of“schism” (us – not him??)
He has let it be said that Christ was not Divinein His time on earth.
At the end of September he released a Motu Proprio – “Aperuit Illis,” “Instituting the Sunday of the Word of God,”
On 4th October, Feastday of St Francis he hosted a pagan ritual (with idols and all the bells and whistles) in the Sacred Garden of the Vatican.
In the following week, synod bishops participated in a pagan Way of Cross , carrying the Pachamama idols
During the synod talks new terminology was used “Table of the Word” and “Table of the Eucharist” ( as opposed to Liturgy of the Word” and “Liturgy of the Eucharist”). The fact that the word ‘table” was used, is a clue that the Eucharist will no longer be a sacrifice but a mere meal. We should be alarmed because that’s when Jesus will not be there. It will be the Abomination of Desolation”
“The sin of humanity will escalate quickly and the sin of idolatry will wrap itself threefold around the Earth. Paganism, dressed like royal monarchy, will infiltrate My Church on Earth. When the heathens embrace My Church, it will not be to adore God. When pagans, atheists and other non-believers, who outwardly reject the existence of God, embrace My Church, it will not be to Me, Jesus Christ, they will bend their knee. When My Church declares that it welcomes all, do not be fooled.It will not mean they are welcoming pagans into My Church, so that they can bow before My Tabernacle. No, it will be to parade idolatry, caused by the sin of pride, before Me, to desecrate the Holy and Sacred Tabernacles. They will place pagan symbols on My Altars and demand that unsuspecting congregations bow and accept their fellow brothers and sisters, with grace and generosity. All will be asked to deny the Truth, so as to welcome false worshippers,who will trample on My Altars.Then, the Hand of God will fall.” (12 November 2013 @ 8:30pm) https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0966/
“When you are asked to deny Me, by those who claim to be acting for the good of all – all religions – turn your back, for you will be asked to embrace paganism, which will be disguised as Christianity.” (2 January 2014 @ 8:40pm ) https://missionofsalvation.com/message-1007/
“In the final days, religion will become a pagan concept,when adulation of the Earth, the sun, the moon and the stars will become the substitutes, when they pay homage to God. Most of the world will turn to paganism and bring death to their souls. Despite every Intervention by My Father, they will turn the other way.This is why My Father promised the world theBook of Truth, the unraveling of the Book of Revelation, to save your sorry souls.” (29 March 2014 @ 2:30pm) https://missionofsalvation.com/message-1085/
. “It will be the Christians, who will be made to idolize paganism, which will be carefully presented as a new church and which will embrace a new form of ‘communion’ – a church for everyone – where I, Jesus Christ, will not feature. “ (18 April 2014 @ 11:24pm)
“Any doctrine which dictates that you honour such statues, which are not of God, or where you are asked to participate in practices which involve the occult, must be avoided at all costs. Don’t you know what these do to your soul, your mind and your body? They destroy them.
So many souls become infested by these practices, which open the door to your soul and allow Satan and his demons to devour you. These – and make no mistake – are powerful practices, in that they attract evil spirits”. (03 June 2013 @ 9:50pm) https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0809/
Following is a list of some of the Headings of messages in Book of Truth relating to Paganism:
Mother of Salvation: “My children everywhere – you must listen to me, your beloved Mother, at this time of sorrow” 19 August 2013 @ 6:28pm https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0881/
A summary of the pagan gestures and symbols that were used. In the pagan ceremony, advertised as a “Consecration” to the Amazonian synod! (Need I ask ‘Consecration to who?’)
Feathers
Shaman –
Invoking Mother Earth at the beginning.
Shaking Rattle – spirits speaking
Woman shaman with hands held up – invoking spirits
Pagan idols presented to FP which he blessed
PF with his eyes closed-seemingly meditating on the event
PF accepts black ring from shaman lady – “tucum ring”
Sign of the Cross – mixing Holy and Catholic with paganism –letting devil in
The Vatican press release actually names the pagan goddess ‘Pachamama’ and describes it as a ceremony to dedicate the Amazon Synod to St Francis. If this is so, as a pagan ceremony, we can expect only evil from this synod.
Shaman lady puts necklace around the popewhich he kept on throughout
The “circle” (mandala) – with idols in middle – common to pagan ceremonies including Hinduism, etc
People in a circle around the mandala bowing in adoration of the idols. As one commentator said – these people do not even kneel for Communion, yet they prostrate themselves before 2 pagan goddesses.
A Franciscan friar is part of the group around the mandala, joining in.
Pope and bishopsare seated and watching (joining in??)
It takes place in the Vatican Garden, which is Sacred Space – I imagine that as part of the Vatican, it is Consecrated ground.
The ceremony presents a danger to souls from the devils that are invoked.
Just to attend, let alone joining in the ritual is a Mortal sin – against the First Commandment.
To read messages about Paganism in Book of Truth, see Home page of our site (remnantdisciplesjtm.com) and see Menu item in side bar on the left: “Paganism messages from the Bk. of Truth”
Who would have ever thought that Catholics would latch onto paganism?
“…It will take time before all of these changes will come about but the seeds have been planted. All religion will be united as one and then merged with governments as part of a new global unitand they will lead the way until the man of sin enters it to take up his seat. Many substitutions will take place until the new religion is eventually formed and it will proclaim everything that appears, on the surface, to be for the good of all. https://missionofsalvation.com/Message-1302/
“…They plan to replace the Holy Vicar, Pope Benedict XVI, with a dictator of lies. He will create a new church in league with the antichrist and his group, in order to deceive the world.
Sadly, many of my children will, in their allegiance to the Catholic faith,follow blindly this new false doctrine, like lambs to the slaughter….” ( https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0311/
The false prophet will introduce a powerful ecumenical faith and this will satisfy every heretic. … (11 December 2013 @ 10:05pm; Message 0988)
Prophecy being fulfilled:
A new one world church:
The Book of Truth has many prophecies about this. It hasn’t happened yet, but we have seen in other prophecies how the existing Church with its teachings and structure has to be destroyed first. This is well on its way.
The FP/PF began this work almost immediately he was elected. The very first Holy Thursday and Good Friday, he change the rubrics of these ceremonies – washing feet and “kiss of betrayal” (These have been dealt with elsewhere.) In order to establish this new church , everything has to be changed, ceremonies, prayers, symbols, Church structure, doctrines, etc
Pope Videos: No 1 Jan 2016 – “Inter-religious dialogue” Shows Catholics, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists all believing in “love”. Pf – “seeking God in different ways; we are all children of God.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=akK7diU4Kgc
Other Pope videos: Regarding Olympic Games and the “Superbowl” recently in U.S. : Sport is the way to peace.
More Pope videos: Regarding equality of women, refugees, etc . These are political and secular agenda items. The Pope videos are supposed to be “prayer intentions”, yet not one word of prayer is uttered – no mention of Jesus, or God.
Religions merged with governments.
Actually, the concept of a one world church , which the FP acted upon a few years ago. Now this one is not in the Vatican, but it shows how governments and religion is combined to achieve a goal. This Chrislam is an example of a union with 2 very powerful faiths to form an ecumenical faith which will “satisfy every heretic “. Obviously, this is just the beginning.
We can also see the involvement between religion and government with the current situation the Church is in. Everything seemed to be remarkably controlled, all over the world in a similar way. In every country, the churches supported the government. In fact, over here in this country, we had directives from the bishop about Communion in the hand, and Holy Water (none). They were the ones that suggested that churches should shut down.The first govt. announcement didn’t stipulate. Our Shepherds did not stick up for us. Never in history has government dictated to the Church. The Church has always been looked up to.
Church Doctrine and United Nations
The FP/PF’s encyclical “Laudati Si“ was all about climate change and the environment. It was meant to be about our stewardship of Creation, but God was barely mentioned.It involved the United Nations( the environment and over-population of the earth is one of its sustainable goals, which were signed by the FP.). This collaboration was important, because it is a world-governing type of entity, as is the W.H.O.
Little did we know that this track would, years later, lead to worship of pagan idols, at the Amazonian synod.
The FP, is well known for his collaboration with the United Nations, and the W. H. O. At one stage, he told us that we should “obey the U.N.” See https://www.imdb.com/title/tt20702888/
He also signed the 28 Goals of Sustainable Development of the U. N. – these include, abortion, and other depopulation goals.

Ecumenical Faith to satisfy every heretic
Besides Chrislam, there are many examples of efforts to satisfy every heretic.On eis Martin Luther, who was highly praised by the FP. He erected as tatue at the front of the Vatican, put him on a postage stamp under the Cross ( but not with Mary and St John),with his co-conspirator friend, holding a book of Luther’s teachings. See article below:
Martin Luther statue at the Vatican
Headline: Thu Jan 5, 2017 by John-Henry Westen
Vatican: Catholics now recognize Martin Luther as a ‘witness to the gospel’
“ROME, January 5, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – A newly released document co-authored by the Vatican’s Pontifical Council for Christian Unity and the World Council of Churches promotes the upcoming January 18-25 ‘Week of Prayer for Christian Unity’ with the theme ‘Reconciliation: The love of Christ compels us.’
Encouraging commemorations in all dioceses of the world, the document notes the theme is drawn from the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. In 2017, it says, “Lutheran and Catholic Christians will for the first time commemorate together the beginning of the Reformation.” The text also states that “Catholics are now able to hear Luther’s challenge for the Church of today, recognizing him as a ‘witness to the gospel.’”
” Once again The Fatima Center’s Rapid Response Team has been mobilized to defend the Faith and make reparation for the latest planned sacrilege scheduled to take place within the very heart of the Catholic Church….
…unprecedented ecumenical prayer service scheduled for March 13, 2017 in Saint Peter’s Basilica, where members of the Anglican church will have a prayer service at the altar of the Chair of St. Peter (symbolic of his primacy and universal jurisdiction). March 13 is the anniversary of Pope Francis’ election as the Successor of St. Peter – yet the Anglican church (the Church of England) was established for the express purpose of usurping papal authority.
Such “ecumenical gatherings” are forbidden and condemned by the constant teaching of the Church because these events expose Catholics to false doctrine and practice, and also imply to non-Catholic participants that there is no need to convert to the one true Church for salvation….
Reported in various newspapers and news sites by abs, sbs, Daily Mail UK, Telegraph UK, The Times UK,
The Automotive News reported on 17 Oct. 2014:
“On Saturday evening, some 40 guests paying 5,000 euros each will listen to aclassical music concert, followed by a dinner in the museum “surrounded by masterpieces by world-famous artists such as Michelangelo and Raphael,” according to a program on the Porsche Travel Club’s website.
Pope Francis has allowed the chapel to be rented out for private functions, with the proceeds going to charities working with the poor and homeless, according to press reports”
The “homeless and poor” (see point above) seems to fit in perfectly with the FP’s Marxist agenda.
(See Book of Truth: 6th Oct. 2013)
“…the voice of the false prophet roars about all that is sacred in My Church. Little, however, will be said about the importance of upholding God’s Teachings, Sacraments and the Proclamation of the Truth.Instead, you will see diversions, such as looking after the world’s poor and hungry,and this will be deemed to be your first task as servants of God…”
In other words the emphasis on the homeless and poor and the other marginalized is to divert our attention from what is holy – God’s teachings, and the Sacraments, so that the new One world Religion and Government can be imposed on us, without our noticing too much.
We cannot differentiate the “True Church” built on Christ and a “true Pope” who must govern the church according to Christ’s foundation. They are 2 parts of one whole. They cannot be separated. If one of them differs from the other, then one of them is false.
Recently Fr James Altman’s heart-rending speech on “Bergoglio is not the Pope” touched many people and started quite an uproar in some circles. What he said was evident in the FP’s words and actions, and everyone knew it. This evidence proves he is an anti-pope. Antipopes can, and have been elected before. Anti-popes act as if they are popes, but they betray Christ and His Church. He said what many of us feel in our hearts. In God’s eyes he would not be a pope faithful to Christ’s Church. Legalisms aside, God has allowed it.Jesus tells us that Pope Benedict returned the Keys of Peter to our Heavenly Father.
So Fr. Altman is correct in his claims. Jesus also tells us “This pope may be electedby members within the Catholic Church, buthe will be the false prophet.” (see: 12 April 2012 @ 11:27am; Message 0394 –https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0394/
The Mother of Salvation refers to Bergoglio as “the man who sits in the Chair of Peter”.Fr Altman tells us that (in heaven’s eyes), Bergoglio is not the Pope.
Pope Ven. Pius XII tells us in his prophetic speech of Sunday, February 20, 1949 , what a true Pope is, and how the True Church sees and acts. We can easily identify much of what he said in the Church today.
Excerpts from Pope Pies XII’s address to thew faithful in Rome on Sunday, February 20, 1949
…” A well-known characteristic common to persecutors of all times is that, not content with physically crushing their victims, they want also to make them appear despicable and hateful to their country and to society.
Who does not remember the Roman martyrs, …immolated under Nero and made to appear as arsonists, abominable criminals, enemies of mankind?
Modern persecutors show themselves to be the docile disciples of that inglorious school. They copy, so to speak, their masters and models, if, indeed, they do not surpass them in cruelty, clever as they are in the art of employing the most recent progress in the technical sciences for the purpose of a domination and enslavement of the people which in the past would not have been conceivable. …
… the totalitarian and anti-religious State … would desire:
a Church which remains silent,when she should speak out;
a Church which weakens the law of God, adapting it to the taste of human desires, when she should loudly proclaim and defend it;
a Church which detaches herself from the unwavering foundation upon which Christ built her, in order to repose comfortably on the shifting sands of the opinions of the day or to give herself up to the passing current;
a Church which does not withstand the oppression of conscience and does notprotect the legitimate rights and the just liberties of the people;
a Church which, with indecorous servility, remains enclosed within the four walls of the temple, which forgets the divine mandate received from Christ: Go forth to the street corners (Matt 22:9), teach all peoples (Matt 28:19).
Beloved sons and daughters! Spiritual heirs of an innumerable legion of confessors and martyrs!
Is this the Church whom you venerate and love?Would you recognize in such a Church the features of your Mother’s face? Can you imagine a Successor of the first Peter, who would bow to similar demands?
The Pope has the divine promises; even in his human weaknesses, he is invincible and unshakable; he is the messenger of truth and justice, the principle of the unity of the Church; his voice denounces errors, idolatries, superstitions; he condemns iniquities; he makes charity and virtue loved.
Can he [the Pope] then remain silent when in a nation the churches which are united to the center of Christendom, to Rome, are snatched away through violence or cunning; when all the Greek-Catholic bishops are imprisoned because they refuse to apostatize from their faith; when priests and the faithful are persecuted and arrested because they refuse to leave their true Mother Church?
Can the Pope remain silent, when the right to educate their own children is taken away from parents by a minority regime which wants to alienate them from Christ?
Can the Pope remain silent when a State, surpassing the limits of its authority, arrogates to itself the power toabolish dioceses, to depose Bishops, to overturn the ecclesiastical organization, and to reduce it below the minimum requirements for the effectual care of souls?
Can the Pope remain silent when the point is reached of punishing a priest with imprisonment, guilty of refusing to violate the most sacred and inviolable of secrets, the secret of sacramental confession?
Is all this perhaps illegitimate interference in the political powers of the State? …
May the Lord God reward your fidelity, beloved sons and daughters.
May He give you strength in the present and future struggles.
May He make you vigilantagainst the attacks of His and your enemies.
May He illumine with His lightthe minds of those whose eyes are still closed to the truth.
May he grant to those hearts, which today are far from him, the grace to sincerely return to that faith and to those fraternal sentiments whose denial threatens the peace of humanity.
And now may Our lavish, paternal, and affectionate Apostolic Blessing descend upon you, the City and the World.
“But, there will come a time when my Son’s Church will become part of a political movement on a grand scale, and it will then lead the way in all things that concern the world, except that it will not remain loyal to the Word as it was laid down by God. “
“When My Church embraces the secular world, becomes politically motivatedby it, and seeks recognition in the world of politics and business, know then, that I would never condone such action.” (27 October 2013 @ 11:30pm; Message 0951)

Socialism, communism
See “needs of the poor” by PF in Laudate Si – Par. 214
Pope videos: No 2 Feb 2016 – “Care for Creation” mentions the “poverty and the fragility of the planet” which; “requires ‘another way of managing the economy… conceiving a new way of living, because we need a change that unites us all, free from the slavery of consumerism”
The November 2013 Apostolic Exhortation Evangelii GaudiumPope (Francis) focuses on “two great issues” that, he says, “will shape the future of humanity.” “These issues are first, the inclusion of the poor in society,and second, peace and social dialogue,” he wrote.
The issues PF has mentioned in Laudate Si, Amoris Laetita, in his pope videos, etc is a progressive clearing the way and introducing socialist ideas-environmentalism, humanism, socialism, communism and one-world governance as the article below shows:
Headline: Why Is the Vatican Pushing Communist Goals? 3 August 2015
[Because Francis is a Marxistand promotes same through a Liberation Theology approach]
(This coming November), the Vatican’s Pontifical Academy for Science is holding a workshop intended to figure out how to indoctrinate your children in the Sustainable Development Goals. This comes on the heels of the Vatican nuncio to the United Nations announcing “verbatim” support for the SDGs, and after Catholic Relief Services president, Dr. Carolyn Woo echoed Pope Francis’ call for support for the SDGs as well.
So, what are the Sustainable Development Goals? They’re a United Nations plan for the creation of a global socialist utopia thinly disguised as a poverty reduction program. … In short, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are the first step in achieving several of the goals laid out in Karl Marx’s Communist Manifesto….. Here’s a snap-shop of how specific portions of the SDGs line up with identified Communist goals:
(Some of the) Sustainable Development Goals
Goal 1. End poverty in all its forms everywhere
Communists have always used the plight of the pooras justification for the implementation of their nefarious schemes
Goal 5. Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls
Communism has pushed for working women since the beginning of the Revolution in Russia.
Goal 8. Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all
Plank 8 of the Communist Manifesto: Equal liability of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
Goal 17. Strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development
This is pure global governance orchestrated by an entity with authority above national sovereignty.
(In her article, I have emphasized the ideas and concepts which PF has very obviously been pushing – which is very clearly a link to socialism and communism and the one-world government, which is communism’s goal).
In this article Dr Anca-Maria describes communism and it’s marxist ideologies and its attack on western culture. She describes the history of attacks on society from the legalization of abortion by Lenin back in 1920,no-fault divorce, radical sexual education, gay rights movement. She describes how “Marx expresses a profound hatred for God and for the entire human race. Marx doesn’t deny God’s existence, he is jealous of God; he hates Him and wants to take His place …. , and testimonies about strange ceremonies that Marx used to perform in his house, all of which indicate that he was definitely a worshiper of the devil.”
She sums up the threats into two categories:
The war against family and against innocent human life and
The Church and the war against family and innocent human life
Excerpts are below:
“The attack against the family and human life is part of a wider revolutionary attempt to re-design human society and human nature.
“Our Lady of Fatima warned against “Russia’s errors”, which would spread all over the world. And that is what happened since 1917.
The basic idea is the same as the serpent’s proposal to Adam and Eve, to eat the forbidden fruit,to ignore God’s commandment – “the day you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil” (Gen 3:5).
“The Popes have constantly condemned communism since its earliest days.Pius IX, Leo XIII, Pius XI and Pius XII have all radically rejected communism. And they have also explicitly warned that communism was a threat to the family.
“And the Second Vatican Council did not issue a condemnationof communism – in spite of the fact that many Council Fathers had insisted for it.
But Pope John XXIII said the Church in his time preferred mercyand was not going to pronounce condemnations.”
“In the Catholic Social Doctrine after Vatican II, the rejection of Marxism became less radical, at the same time as hostility to economic freedom increased. The language of the encyclicals moved from normal Christian language to ideologically contaminated media language.
“Let your yes mean yes, and your no mean no.Anything more than this comes from the evil one”. (Mt 5:37)”
“The shepherds’ duty is to make this distinction clear.
They should preach the Kingdom of God and His justice, not socialist “justice”, understood as government control over economy, or income redistribution.
They should preach peace as offered by Christ, not as stated by the UN.”
“The Church shepherds should preach real freedom, which is liberation from sin, from the slavery of Satan.Veritas liberabit vos. Real freedom means salvation, and thus can never be bad or excessive.”
“The real priority for the Church should be to lead us in the spiritual battle, to save souls, to tell the whole world:
“Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near.” (Mt 3:2) The Kingdom of God, which is not from this world.
“But, there will come a time when my Son’s Church will become part of a political movement on a grand scale, and it will then lead the way in all things that concern the world, except that it will not remain loyal to the Word as it was laid down by God. “

Pope’s encyclical: Pro-climate-change, but anti-population control, pro-life, and anti-gender ideology
Thu Jun 18, 2015 – 8:32 pm EST
Pro-life leaders praise, express concerns about papal environment encyclical
From Harvesting the Fruit: A giant leap toward formal heresy? 21 June 2015, 16:17 4 63
‘Even now we are journeying towards the sabbath of eternity, the new Jerusalem, towards our common home in heaven. Jesus says: “I make all things new” (Rev 21:5). Eternal life will be a shared experience of awe, in which each creature, resplendently transfigured, will take its rightful place and have something to give those poor men and women who will have been liberated once and for all.’ – Pope Francis, LaudatoSi – 243
Here, the pope is plainly misappropriating Sacred Scriptureto suggest that all persons, without any qualification or distinction whatsoever, will enjoy eternal beatitude at the end of time.
“Deeply concerned by the omission from the encyclical letter Laudato Si of a reaffirmation of the Church’s teaching against contraception and on procreation”
Excerpts Patrick Buckley, UN lobbyist for the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children (SPUC), noted that: “The encyclical calls for increased international environmental action in paragraphs 173-175, while neglecting to prepare Catholics for what such action will undoubtedly involve: renewed attempts to further impose contraception and abortion on the developing world.”
Professor Hans Schellnhuber was among those chosen by the Holy See to present the encyclical to the press …has previously stated that the “carrying capacity of the planet” is “below 1 billion people”. The global population would have to be reduced by more than 80% to meet this target.
John-Henry Westen, co-founder of Voice of the Family and editor-in-chief of LifeSiteNews commented “Professor Schellnhuber is an advocate of the establishment of a supreme global government that would have the power to take action to resolve the perceived environmental crisis, which in his view requires population reduction.In this context the references in the encyclical to the need for a ‘world political authority’, which should have the power to ‘sanction’, is deeply troubling.” (comment by John-Henry Westen, co-founder of Voice of the Family and editor-in-chief of LifeSiteNews)
On 22nd June 2015) it was revealed that Professor Schellnhuber has been appointed a member of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences (PAS) by Pope Francis .
“Laudato Si Encyclical validates my greatest fears” in “its embrace and adoption of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development radical agenda” 21 June 2015,
Excerpts from Heartland institute
… “The Vatican’s partnering with the United Nations climate agenda is nothing short of an unholy alliance. The papal encyclical, no matter how nuanced it may read, will simply be used as a tool to support UN global warming ‘solutions’ that are at odds with most Catholic teachings on issues such as abortion, contraception, overpopulation, and helping the poor nations develop. The Vatican appears to be taking an unprecedented step by seemingly endorsing a specific UN climate treaty.
… “Sections 23 and 24 of the draft Encyclicalrefer to numerous hypothetical disastrous consequences of climate change, or ‘warming.’
Francis now pushing Gaia Mother Earth Climate Change in Seminaries1 June 2016,
… Pope Francis in his encyclical “Laudato Si“ specifically called on Catholic seminaries to teach about ecology, saying: “It is my hope that our seminaries and houses of formation will provide an education in responsible simplicity of life, in grateful contemplation of God’s world, and in concern for the needs of the poor and the protection of the environment” (Paragraph 214).
Saint Peter’s Basilica Desecrated
On the 132th December, Feast of the Immaculate Conception, no mention of our Blessed Mother was made, but an environmental and blasphemous light show desecrated the Vatican. There were images of animals, and pagan gods and goddesses and Buddhist monks. It clearly showed pf’s predilection with world affairs – the environment, ONE WORLD church that welcomes everybody.
Some excerpts from Rorate Caeli on 13th Dec. 2015 included:
“… images of gigantic lions, tigers and leopards were superimposed on St. Peter’s, which was built exactly upon the ruins of Nero’s circus, where ferocious wild beasts had [once] devoured Christians.”
“Buddhist monks, on the march, seemed to indicate a way of salvation alternate to Christianity. Not one religious symbol, not one reference to Christianity; the Church gave the way to “sovereign nature”.
“Environmentalism is presented as a vision of the world which turns this hierarchy upside down, by eliminating God and dethroning man.”
“Antonio Socci, in Libero, defined it as ”a Gnostic, Neo-Pagan ‘sceneggiata’ which had a precise ideological, anti-Christian message” , observing that “at St. Peter’s, on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, the celebration of Mother Earth was preferred to the celebration of the Mother of God, to propagate the dominant ideology, of that ‘climatist and environmentalist’, Neo-Pagan and Neo-Malthusian religion, which is supported by the great powers of the world.”

It is significant that this Feastday, is directly after the Exaltation of the Holy Cross.
What most people are familiar with is the Rosary of the 7 Sorrows. There is also a Litany to Our Mother of Sorrows.
The Seven Sorrows of Our Lady:
The First Sorrow: The Prophecy of Simeon and Anna
The Second Sorrow: The Flight into Egypt. ..
The Third Sorrow: The Loss of the Child Jesus. …
The Fourth Sorrow: The Condemnation of Jesus. …
The Fifth Station: The Crucifixion of Jesus. …
The Sixth Station: The Retrieval of Jesus’ Body. …
The Seventh Station: The Burial of Jesus.
Seven Promises to those who meditate on Our Lady’s Seven Sorrows:
The Blessed Virgin Mary grants seven graces to the souls who honor her daily by meditating (i.e. mental prayer) on her seven sorrows (dolors). The Hail Mary is prayed seven times, once after each meditation. 1. “I will grant peace to their families.“
2. “They will be enlightened about the Divine Mysteries.”
3. “I will console them in their pains and I will accompany them in their work.”
4. “I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my Divine Son or the sanctification of their souls.”
5. “I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives.”
6. “I will visibly help them at the moment of their death. They will see the face of their Mother.”
7. “I have obtained this grace from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors, will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.”

Amen.
“…My presence and the signs I show in the skies and other manifestations are rejected. Even priests and bishops ignore my warnings. They, too, have turned away from a belief in Divine interventions. How blind they are to reject help from me their beloved Mother.
My Son suffers so much it is heartbreaking to see Him in agony today because of the evil of sin. My children have no idea how He suffers the torment He has to witness in the world,when He sees the cruelty of man.
My child, remind my children that I will appear only a few more times in the world because the time has come for the final battle when I will crush the head of the serpent.
My children must know how much they are loved and cherished by my beloved Son. I urge them to open their hearts and show Him the love and compassion He deserves. He, your Saviour, Who willingly accepted death in its most cruel form, to save you, wants now to save this generation from the snares of Satan.
He, the deceiver, smiles, my child, because he knows he has succeeded in stealing precious souls.Pray, pray, pray now that my Son will be heard during The Warning and that His Gift of Redemption will be accepted with humble and open arms.
Remember, as your Mother, I will always plead for clemency for my children. My tears have flowed for those who do not want to hear the Truth, because it will only be through constant prayer that these unfortunate souls can be redeemed.

“By the sign of the Cross, deliver us from our enemies, O Thou our God”. (Communion: verse)
“STAND by us, O Lord our God, and do Thou,who makest us rejoice in honor of the holy Cross, defend us evermore by its help”. (Post Communion verse)
The feastday:
Today is a very special Feastday. Today we celebrate the triumph and the power of the Cross.
It was on the 14th Septemberthat we commemorate St Helena finding the true Crossin 4th century. 300 years later, after a part of it was taken by the Persians, a Christian king as a result of a battle, reclaimed it. He processed with it to the Church of the holy Sepulchre, to which it belonged.It was a great occasion and He was dressed in all his kingly splendour. But when he was nearly there, he stopped and could not move.He was stiff and Cross was too heavy. It was only after he had humbled himself by pitting on the robes of a poor person, that he was able to proceed and carry the cross into The place where it belonged. This day, also happened to be on the 14th September.
The Curé d’Ars ( t(1786-1859) tells us in one of his homilies:
“…We need not be surprised, my dear brethren, at the honor which the Church pays to this holy wood, which obtains for us so many graces and so many benefits.We see that the Church makes the Sign of the Cross in all her ceremonies, in the administration of all the Sacraments.
Why is that? My friends, this is why. It is because all our prayers and all the Sacraments draw from the Cross their power and their virtue.During the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, … the priest makes the Sign of the Cross over and over again.God desires that we may never lose the memory of it as the surest means of our salvation and the most formidable instrument for repelling the Devil. …”
God’s Plan: Then and Now
The Cross was God’s Plan for our Salvation. He accepted his Son’s Sacrifice. To the world he seemed a loser, a criminal… The devil was out to get Him from the very beginning of His Life.He thought He had won.The spiritual leaders of the time – the “elite” thought they had succeeded. He was a thorn in their side. But the Victory and the Triumph was Christ’s. He paid the price for our Salvation.
The gates of Hell did not prevail then, and they will not prevail today, in these times.
The Cross is a sign of a Christian. We take up our crosses like our Saviour did. We must be humble and willing to do as our dear Lord and Saviour did.
Jesus stands by us today, as we carry the many crosses imposed on us by ungodly men, who are in collaboration with sacred servants of his who are Judases.
At the Offertory today we prayed:
“By the sign of the holy Cross, O Lord, protect Thy people from the wiles of all our enemies, that we may be able to do Thee worthy service, and that our sacrifice may be well-pleasing in Thy sight”
In the Gospel today
(St. John, 12. 31-36) We read Jesus’ words :
“: Now is the judgment of the world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all things to Myself … Yet a little while, the light is among you. Walk whilst you have the light, that the darkness overtake you not. And he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth. Whilst you have the light, believe in the light; that you may be the children of light.”
