Cardinal Pell – “may the holy angels escort you to Paradise.”

AM+DG

Today is a sad day. I heard this morning of the sudden death of our dearly beloved Cardinal.

Because of certain events in his story, on hearing this news I was suspicious. But it seems that he had a cardiac arrest after surgery, whilst chatting to the Dr. The last public statement I read about him was his tribute to Pope Benedict XVI after his death

Cardinal Pell was out much loved (and hated by some) Cardinal. He was a faithful disciple of Jesus. He always told the Truth, even though this was not always welcome. It was bitter sweet, that, after he was cleared of all charges, that he went back to Rome.

His 3 volumes of his memoirs in prison are compelling reading.  See Cardinal Pell’s  story (and prophecy about him) here:

Our website has many articles about the cardinal. Some of them include:

  • Are the prophecies True? 22. “…Terrible miscarriage of justice…”

This story reveals the prophecy, and all the events involved. It , including the Vatican finances he was asked to sort out. It was when he had asked for a world-renowned Audit company to get involved, that the charges against him suddenly appeared. Read about these charges and how his case was mysteriously a copycat of another one in America .

Paul Collits, on his substack writes:

“On George Pell – A Personal Reflection

Jan. 11, 2023

“Following the sudden death of Cardinal Pell, innocent of all charges against him are now at eternal rest, I am republishing one of my many articles on the Cardinal (July 2020). I have written over fifty thousand words on his trials, Victoria Police, Louise Milligan and related subjects. Many of these are freely available at The Freedoms Project and at Quadrant Online. Requiescat in pace.

Now the dust has settled.  All the protagonists have had their say following the Holy Week exoneration of George Cardinal Pell by the High Court of Australia.

Victims groups released their statements, tinged with bitterness.  Supporters of justice for all, like Frank Brennan, drew their legal conclusions.  Politicians now utterly consumed with their own, other, crises, like Daniel Andrews, got their little jibes in.  Julia Gillard, whose half billion dollar Royal Commission had finally been shown to have missed its primary mark, mumbled something or other faintly to console the victims industry, now aggrieved afresh.

The chief media prosecutors, …

Scott Morrison said nought. 

Despite the conspicuous and ringing endorsements the Cardinal had earlier received from two of Morrison’s eminently more worthy predecessors, Tony Abbott (a Catholic) and John Howard (not a Catholic).

Cardinal Pell granted an exclusive interview, no doubt watched by millions, to Andrew Bolt, one of the Cardinal’s most vigorous supporters out of season.  Bolt is used to abuse from his many opponents, so no problem there.  He had a great platform and he used it to the max. 

Bolt was not the Cardinal’s only persistent supporter in the mainstream media.  But there were not many.  …  Keith Windschuttle at Quadrant broke new stories on the case – like the connection with the Billy Doe case in the USA – and provided rigorous insights on all sorts of issues related to the “evidence” of the case.

Others writing at Quadrant supplied some of the bits missing from the mainstream media.  Like Professor John Finnis.  A previously unknown theological researcher in remote Wales called Christopher Friel emerged from nowhere, and wrote over one hundred forensically researched essays on the Pell case.  His insights were incredible, really.  He totally broke the story of Lyndsay Farlow and unlocked the twitterati’s conspiracy to get Pell.  This was astonishing journalism, to say the very least. https://quadrant.org.au/magazine/2019/06/the-social-media-witch-hunt-for-george-pell/

Another figure from Pell’s past, the indefatigable John Macaulay, contributed much intel to the international Catholic media, especially to EWTN.  ….  One figure stands out, though.  … George Weigel, Pope John Paul II’s biographer and a compelling truth teller.  Writing mainly at First Things, he prosecuted two cases.  One was that his old friend George Pell was innocent, and absurdly charged with offences unthinkable to us all, including to Pell himself.  The second was that the whole charade had put Australian justice on trial in the international court of public opinion.  He was a strategic supporter of Pell, decidedly out of season as well.

I have argued before that the broad Pell (small d) defence team had two objectives, and four strategies.  The two objectives were to get him out of gaol, and to restore his decimated reputation.  The four strategies were – prayer, public witness, communication with the Cardinal, and monetary contributions to his legal defence. 

First, Cardinal Pell received thousands of letters of support while he was in gaol, and these expressions of faith must have deeply affected the Cardinal.  Just as the apparent expressions of support and connection for him from fellow prisoners must have provided much needed reassurance during his dark days of solitary confinement Even though he routinely reported to his friends that prison was merely an elongated “retreat”.   …

The American journal First Things, such a defiant source of international support for the Cardinal,  has ongoing significance in the Pell story, post-exoneration.  For the Cardinal has just recently published in First Things a reflection on his time in prison. https://www.firstthings.com/article/2020/08/my-time-in-prison

Fr Fessio of Ignatius Press has predicted that the Cardinal’s book on his time in prison will prove to be a “spiritual classic”.    …

The Cardinal had allies in prison, including the prison boss who urged him to continue with his legal appeals when he himself doubted their value.  Astonishing.

The Cardinal concluded:

My Catholic faith sustained me, especially the understanding that my suffering need not be pointless but could be united with Christ Our Lord’s. I never felt abandoned, knowing that the Lord was with me—even as I didn’t understand what he was doing for most of the thirteen months. For many years, I had told the suffering and disturbed that the Son of God, too, had trials on this earth, and now I myself was consoled by this fact. So, I prayed for friends and foes, for my supporters and my family, for the victims of sexual abuse, and for my fellow prisoners and the warders.  …

Cardinal Pell is a pragmatic pastor and a pragmatic thinker.  He is a serious intellectual, of course, what with his Oxford doctorate and his many spiritual tomes such as God and Caesar, Test Everything and Contemplating Christ Through Luke, and his reflections on prominent twentieth century Catholic philosophers like Elizabeth Anscombe, who he knew personally.

But Pell’s spiritual writings and his thinking are infused with a down-to-earth Aussie realism and groundednessHis homilies, as evidenced by his Be Not Afraid, inevitably reflect a rare combination of the spiritual, the reflective and the practical. 

His engagement with the earthly issues of the day, of course, have caused him grief with the elite worthies who played such an active and vindictive active part in the attempt to crucify him. …

His rise to number three in the Vatican confirmed Pell’s gravitas and his international reputation as a serious player in the Church.  His appointment by a new pope (Francis) with whom he might not have been seen as a natural theological ally only confirmed his reputation as a can-do, reforming truth-teller.  (He was given the assignment to clean up the Vatican’s notoriously corrupt finances.  An assignment he assiduously accepted and proceeded to execute, only to be thwarted by what some have argued was a Vatican-Victorian police joint operation

… 

What we now have unleashed is not an ageing prelate bent on revenge against his many enemies and on personal vindication, but rather a deeply reflective pastor and spiritual giant of a man concerned to live out his remaining life in service of his God and of truth, leavened by endless compassion.

Not a bad model for those of us afflicted with far lesser burdens”

There is no doubt that he was a (white) martyr, especially considering the prophecy which could only apply to him. No other bishop has been so badly treated and maligned.

He bore it all with patience and Faith.

He loved Our Lord .

He was a saintly man.

He has been taken to his reward.

Please pray for his soul. +++

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Schism – Signs and Prophecies

AM+DG

Forewarned is fore-armed.

Questions that come to mind: What is the schism?  What are the signs?

Who will be involved?

What part of the Church is the true Catholic Church?

What must we do?

There has been much talk of schism.

There has been much gaslighting. Faithful Catholics including bishops, and priests have been accused of being in schism or trying to cause one. Bergoglio himself has done so. Traditional Catholics are accused of schism, Abp. Vigano is considered by many to be schismatic, or teaches schism. Much is made of remaining true to the “pope”. This is a trick of the evil one – to confuse and turn things upside down. If the so-called “pope” is not true to Christ, then he cannot be part of the true Church.

When changes to Christ’s teachings are made mandatory, when the Sacraments are changed, when we are told there is no hell, and that all sin is forgiven, when the words of the Gospel seem strange – what will you do???

Jesus’ Promise:

Jesus promised that “the gates of hell shall not prevail against it“. But let us not be confused and think that it will be okay to follow all the new ideas because it will all pass – that Hell will not prevail. We have to remind ourselves that the “gates of hell” will not prevail against the true Church – the  one that stays true to Christ’s Teachings and God’s Commandments.

So who will be in “schism”?Will it be those who call themselves “Catholic” and obey all the False Prophet teaches – even if the teachings are different to what Christ taught, but they claim they are true to the “pope”, so this means they are still part of the true Catholic Church’.

Or will it be those who do not accept the new teachings and remain true to Christ’s teachings and god’s Commandments? This group will form the remnant Church – they have stayed faithful to Christ – the Head of His Mystical Body – which is the church.

The answer is obvious.  If you are -part of a club, you follow the rules. If a person doesn’t like the rules, he leaves, or is expelled. He is no longer part of the club. It follows then, that the first sign of schism is “apostasy”. (see the 4 signs as explained by Jesus, further in his article).

The evil one causes division, and  confusion.He is a liar. So when we see these things when they are promoted, and declared, and forced upon the faithful, bu cardinals, and bishops and priests, even from the one sitting on the chair of Peter,we know where it comes from. The True faith, never changes, for it comes from God.

Eventually,  the Schism will be officially declared, but let no-one fool you as to who is in schism.

Anyone who changes Christ’s teachings cannot be part of Christ’s Church. The articles below explain different ways to interpret the word “schism”

+++++++++++++++++++

What does “schism” mean?

  • Intriguing interpretation of 2 Thessalonians 2:3 by Tyconius (also Ticonius, Tychonius)

Faithful Christians usually assume that the “falling away” – the “separation,” the “departure”will be instigated by droves of people “leaving” the Church, a massive exodus of unbelievers. The definition of “apostasy” in the Catechism of the Catholic Church – “a total repudiation of the Christian faith” – plainly conveys such an idea.

For Tyconius, however, the opposite is true. Tyconius understands that the great “falling away” of the end times will not be caused by unfaithful people leaving the Bride of Christ, but rather by the Bride of Christ pulling away from those within her who are unfaithful. In other words, for Tyconius, it is not the infidels who will “fall away” but rather the true believers, who will withdraw from the evil within the Church. A paradoxical reversal indeed.

For Tyconius, it is the new Israel who must depart on her new Exodus. The true Church herself will effect the great apostasy as a way of salvation from her enemies. In a real sense, the true Church will force the apostasy into the light, for the body of the devil, present in the false brothers inhabiting the Church, is already, and always has been, apostate. That fact has merely been concealed.

Expounding on Apocalypse 16:19, which begins, “And the great city was divided into three parts,” Tyconius states: “This great city is all people entirely, everyone who is under heaven, who will be divided into three parts when the church is divided, resulting in the heathen being one part; and the ‘abomination of desolation,’ another; and the church, which will have gone out from the midst of her, a third”.

And again, in commenting on Apocalypse 18:4 – And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Go out from her, my people, so that you do not share in her sins and so that you are not stricken by her plagues – Tyconius writes: “Here he [the Apostle John] shows more fully that Babylon consists of two separate parts, external and internal, out of which also holy people, having been clearly warned by God, will leave.”

Signs of Schism

Excerpts from the Book of Truth about the schism:

  • 20 October 2013 @ 5:48pm; Message 0942

“…Know that when the reign of heresy commences, that those who become involved with it will feel a terrible loneliness and wretchedness. Yet, to the outside world, all will seem to be acceptable to the Church. While you will struggle internally, all exterior rituals, conducted in the name of a global united church, will make you feel uneasy. Within six months of the heresy being introduced into My Church, many who ignored My Call, will flee and seek out those who remained true to My Holy Word. Then My Army will swell, grow and gather the remnants from all Christian churches and fight the spirit of evil.

The schism in My Church will be broken into different stages. The first stage will be when only those who truly know Me, and understand the Truth of the Holy Gospels, will decide that they cannot accept lies in My Name.  The second stage will come about when people are denied the Holy Sacraments, as they are meant to be. The third stage will be when My Churches have been desecrated and that will be when My sacred servants will, at last, understand the Truth contained in the Book of Revelation. …”

  • 13 February 2013 @ 11:20am; Message 0704

“…They, the wicked group have begun their campaign, to rid the earth of the Truth of My Teachings. My Holy Vicar has been forced into this action and will suffer greatly as a result. Masonry has infiltrated My Church on earth and soon the schism, as foretold, will create division and disquiet amongst My faithful servants.    (…)

It is not the collapse of the Catholic Church, which will soon become evident, which will divide the world. It will be their involvement in the creation of a New World Church, a one-world religion, which will introduce paganism and idolatry.

The false prophet has prepared well and his time is coming. In collaboration with the antichrist they will bring the world to its knees. It won’t be to God they will pay homage, it will be to the beast.

I urge all My disciples, My Christian followers, everywhere, to remain calm. Pray for peace and allow Me, your Jesus, to guide you at this time.

I call on all of My cardinals, My bishops and My sacred servants, to unite your flock and remain loyal to My Teachings. Pay close attention to what you will be asked to preach for it will change. Your homilies will be devised and written for a secular world and they will have no substance.

In a bid, to be seen to modernise the Catholic Church, this is what will be presented to you –the promotion of all-inclusive congregations – all religions rolled into one, so-called Christian Unified Church.  All the outward signs may, at first, seem the same, but that is what you are meant to see. Slowly you will no longer recognise My Holy Scripture, as new words, phrases and new formats to the presentation of the Sacraments will be placed before you.

There will be a panic amongst those true loyal conservative priests who will be alarmed at the new modern format the Church will embrace when they will re-launch a new type of modern alternative Church.

It will be through the network of masonry, which is infiltrated in every corner of the Catholic Church, governments and the media, that this abomination will be presented as a great innovation.

This is the beginning of the end. My Presence will be discreetly banished for the new ceremony of the Masses.

All the pomp and ceremony will mask an empty tabernacle, for My Divine Presence, will no longer be permitted, by My Father.

You must remain united and, if you are Catholic, continue to attend daily Masses and Holy Communion. For all Christians you must know that, you too, will be lured into the New World Religion, plotted by nations who are in league with the traitors of My Catholic Church. They wish to create a secular, humanistic, façade – a façade, which masks the evil it will promote, subtly….”

 

  • 20 March 2012 @ 9:20pm; Message 0374

“… I need your comfort, children. I need your consolation in My suffering, as I cry tears for My Church on Earth.

So far removed have some of My sacred servants become, that many do not believe in My Second Coming. Those priests, bishops and cardinals who do believe are being pushed aside and forced to keep silent. …

Soon they will have to watch what they say about My Holy Word, for they will be forced to proclaim the teachings of a liar, whose soul does not come from the Light. …

You, My beloved followers, must remain on your guard at all times.

You will be tempted to forsake Me, to denounce My True Teachings and be forced to honour and obey the wolf in sheep’s clothing.

So many poor souls will not only fall under the spell of the false popethe false prophet, foretold so long ago – but he will have you believe that he has divine powers.

Children the time for the schism in the Church is almost here and you must get prepared now.Join together as one. Hold onto each other. Protect each other and pray for those who will follow the wrong path and pay homage to the false prophet….”

2 May 2013 @ 8:07pm; Message 0780

My dearly beloved daughter, the Church will be deserted by many in the highest echelons, with many adopting new false doctrines which will lead them into the realm of darkness. (…)

And so the schism will begin. Those who follow the false doctrine, where I, Jesus Christ, am not revered, will be torn to shreds by the beast and his demons. Those innocent servants of Mine, who have not accepted these Messages so far, will now come running to Me for comfort. My prophecies do not lie, and very soon many of these poor souls will be cast away from the Holy See. They will be accused of crimes against the Seat of Peter and will be publicly humiliated in My Holy Name. (…)

Soon, many of you will see clearly what I have warned you about. The schism will be vicious and a war will ensue between Truth and lies. It will bring the Catholic Church down, until it resembles a heap of stones, but the One True Church will remain standing tall, as My faithful servants build up My Remnant Army. They will fight until the bitter end to uphold the Holy Word of God.”

 

17 February 2013 @ 7:00pm; Message 0708

My dearly beloved daughter, the schism within the Catholic Church, as foretold, will now be witnessed, for all the world to see. The departure of My dearly beloved Holy Vicar, Pope Benedict XVI, marks the beginning of the end. I have, through you, My chosen prophet, over the last two years, tried to prepare My Church on earth for this sad event.

The Masonic elite have grasped control over My Church and they will wield the most wicked deceit upon Catholics. The Keys of Rome are now within My Hands having been passed over to Me by My Father. I will direct all of My followers so that the Truth can be sustained and that My Holy Word remains intact.

The false prophet will now take over the Seat in Rome and My Word, just as it was in My Time on earth, will be treated as heresy.

…  My followers must remain calm and pray for the salvation of all of My most sacred servants who will be caught up in this abomination. I call on them to respond as follows.

Continue to follow My Teachings. Never waive from the Word of God. Remain loyal to your sacred duties and administer the Holy Sacraments as you have been instructed by Me.

The Teachings of the Catholic Church, based on its formation by My Apostle Peter, remain infallible. Now this will change once the foundation is rocked by the changes to come.

Shortly, you will no longer recognise My Church and you will feel very uncomfortable when you witness how My Holy Word will be tampered with.

Jesus’ Promises:

  • 13 February 2013 @ 11:20am; Message 0704

“Much prayer is needed, but if you do as I tell you, you can save souls. You, My precious followers, will form the Remnant Church on Earth and will be led by those brave sacred servants, who will recognise the false prophet for what he is.

Do not fear, as I Am bestowing Graces of wisdom, calm and discernment on each of you who ask Me to do so with this prayer:

O Jesus, help me to see the Truth of Your Holy Word, at all times, and remain loyal to Your Teachings, no matter how much I Am forced to reject You.

Stand up now and be brave, all of you, for I will never forsake you. I will walk with you the thorny road and lead you safely to the Gates of the New Paradise. All you have to do is trust in Me completely.

  • 13 February 2013 @ 11:20am; Message 0704

The battle has begun, but you, My beloved followers, are stronger than you think. I Am here always. I have prepared you well. You must, to survive, say this Crusade Prayer.

Crusade of Prayer (100) For the survival of Christianity

O dear Jesus, we beg You for the skills to survive the trials we now face, as the last True Pope finishes his Mission for You. Help us to sustain the terrible abuse we will now have to face because of the collapse of the Church, which we once knew.

Never let us deviate from the Truth of Your Divine Word. Help us to remain silent when the attacks are placed upon our shoulders to entice us to turn our backs on You and the Sacraments you gave the world.

Cover Your Army with the powerful Love we need, like a shield, to protect us against the false prophet and the antichrist. Help Your Church on earth to spread and multiply, so that they can adhere to the Truth and help you lead our brothers and sisters on the Path of Truth to prepare ourselves, adequately, for Your Second Coming. Amen.

Do not fret, My followers. Everything is in My Sacred Hands. Be patient. Do not justify any of your actions, in My Name, for when you do this, you defend My Word, when all you need to do is to proclaim My Word.

Prophecies in the Bible of the future Church:

1 Timothy 4: 1-2

Now the Spirit manifestly saith, that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils, [2] Speaking lies in hypocrisy, and having their conscience seared,

The supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of His Messiah come in the flesh”  (cf., 2 Thessalonians 2:4-12; 1 Thessalonians 5:2-3; 2 John 7; 1 John 2:18, 22).

Other Prophecies (of the future Church):

Abp. Fulton Sheen:

““Evil must come to reject us, to despise us, to hate us, to persecute us, and then shall we define our loyalties, affirm our fidelities and state on whose side we stand How shall the strong and weak trees be manifested unless the wind blows?  Our quantity indeed will decrease, but our quality will increase. Then shall be verified the words of Our Master: whoever does not gather with me, scatters. (Matthew 12:30)

https://www.ncregister.com/blog/did-fulton-sheen-prophesy-about-these-times

Fr Joseph Ratzinger in 1969:

“… From the crisis of today the Church of tomorrow will emerge — a Church that has lost much. She will become small and will have to start afresh more or less from the beginning. She will no longer be able to inhabit many of the edifices she built in prosperity. As the number of her adherents diminishes, so it will lose many of her social privileges. … But in all of the changes at which one might guess, the Church will find her essence afresh and with full conviction in that which was always at her center: faith in the triune God, in Jesus Christ, the Son of God made man, in the presence of the Spirit until the end of the world. In faith and prayer she will again recognize the sacraments as the worship of God and not as a subject for liturgical scholarship.

The Church will be a more spiritual Church, not presuming upon a political mandate, flirting as little with the Left as with the Right. It will be hard going for the Church, for the process of crystallization and clarification will cost her much valuable energy. It will make her poor and cause her to become the Church of the meek.   

But when the trial of this sifting is past, a great power will flow from a more spiritualized and simplified Church.  …

And so it seems certain to me that the Church is facing very hard times. The real crisis has scarcely begun. We will have to count on terrific upheavals. But I am equally certain about what will remain at the end: not the Church of the political cult, which is dead already, but the Church of faith. … but it will enjoy a fresh blossoming and be seen as man’s home, where he will find life and hope beyond death.”

Pope Benedict and Cardinal Zen.

AM+DG

After Pope Benedict’s funeral, Card. Zen met with (pope) Francis. To what purpose? Card. Zen seemed happy with the meeting. Was it just another PR stunt?  I can’t help but be distrustful of this meeting. I guess we will see eventually.

++++++++++++++++++

The following article was Posted on by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf

Please read the whole article at: (excerpt below)

https://wdtprs.com/2023/01/card-zen-on-the-death-of-pope-benedict-xvi/

“Card. Zen on the death of Pope Benedict XVI”

AT THIS MOMENT WHEN POPE BENEDICT LEFT US FOR HEAVEN
Pope Benedict XVI has finally finished his humble service as a “worker in the Lord’s vineyard”. It was a multifaceted service: who will underline that he was a great theologian, who will continue to call him God’s rottweiler, for me he was the great defender of the truth.  …  He defended the truth against the dictatorship of relativism.  …  He said that love without a foundation in truth becomes a shell that can contain anything.

Someone said that Pope Benedict, after his resignation, should have kept quiet and not created confusion in the Church. It seems to me quite the opposite: precisely because there is confusion in the Church, a Pope Emeritus, like every bishop and cardinal as long as they have breath and are clear of mind, must fulfill his duty as Successor of the Apostles to defend the sound tradition of Church. Since when does the word “conservative” mean a sin? Unfortunately fidelity to Tradition can be taken as “rigidity” or “backwardness”.

As a member of the Chinese Church, I am immensely grateful to Pope Benedict for things he has not done for other Churches. First of all, a Letter (June 29, 2007) which was a masterpiece of balance between the lucidity of Catholic ecclesiological doctrine and humble understanding of civil authority. Catholic ecclesiology which is not personal to him, but expounded by him with unsurpassed clarity and concreteness. …

Another extraordinary thing he has done for the Church in China is the establishment of a powerful Commission to take care of the affairs of the Church in China; unfortunately under the new President of this Commission it was secretly made to disappear without even a word of respectful farewell.

Pope Benedict was often misunderstood and sometimes not followed; but it is precisely in these cases, which seem to be failures, that I was able to admire the person’s great fortitude and magnanimity in the face of setbacks (I saw Cardinal Meissner cry during those days when the German episcopate severely criticized the German Pope). In the Angelus of December 26, 2006, Pope Benedict exhorted the faithful in China to persevere in the faith, even if in the present moment everything seems to be a failure.

Despite his great effort, Pope Benedict had failed to improve the situation of the Church in China. He could not accept any compromise. …

As we remember the great Pontiff, let us remember that we now have him as a powerful intercessor in Heaven. With his intercession, let us pray that everyone, the Church in Rome, the Church in China and the Chinese authorities will be moved by God’s grace to bring about true peace for the Church and for our country.

Letter by Pope Benedict to Cardinal Zen published in Asia News on 07/01/2007

See https://www.asianews.it/news-en/Cardinal-Zen:-%E2%80%9CPope%E2%80%99s-letter-to-the-Chinese-Church-represents-love-for-truth-and-his-children%E2%80%9D-9696.html

“The long awaited letter from the Holy Father has finally seen the light of the day. His Holiness Pope Benedict has addressed a letter to the Bishops, priests, religious and faithful in China as he had promised to do last January.

Indeed, it is a historical “First” that the Pope has written a letter to the catholic community in a particular region. The motive is, as is obvious, that that community has experienced so much tribulation in the last decades, that the Holy Father wants to show special concern for those his children and give them some guidelines in this seemingly crucial moment, so that they might free themselves from their unfortunate predicament.    

After a cursory vision of the rather long letter, I would like to share with the media my one impression and two hopes.

The impression. I admire the precious balance achieved by the Holy Father between his passion for the truth and his love for his children. Only an outstanding theologian and a tender father could satisfy at the same time the demands of the truth and the kindness towards people. Blessed be God for having given us such a leader!

On hope. The doctrine painstakingly explained by Benedict XVI, is nothing but the most traditional and universally accepted Catholic principles, belonging to the religious field, with no secret political agenda, even less with an intention of attacking anybody. My hope is that the leaders of our Country would read the Pope’s letter from this perspective and understand the true unchangeable nature of the Catholic Church.

A second hope. The voice of our Bishops and priests in China is often prevented from reaching our leaders; now that the letter of the Pope is in the hands of our leaders, our Bishops and priests can thus refer to it directly as a common starting point for dialogue.

The Pope insists that Bishops are the leaders of the Church and they are not to be separated from the Roman Pontiff. My hope is that our Bishops and priests stand united with the Holy Father. Let our Church in China be truly the Catholic Church recognized and respected by the rest of the World, and let it bring honour and glory to our Country on the stage of the Universal Church.”

Pope Benedict – What comes next? (Prophecies and Rome)

AM+DG

Today is the day of Pope Benedict XVI’s funeral.

He had endured nearly 10 years of isolation – some say “a prisoner”. The man who sits on the Chair of Peter – (elected, but not chosen) – during this time, made a point of visiting him, and even public displays of praying with him. He was forced into this position. Jesus message on the day that the false prophet was elected (13th March, 2013):

“My beloved Pope Benedict XVI was persecuted and fled, as foretold. I have not appointed this person, who claims to come in My Name. He, Pope Benedict, will guide My followers towards the Truth. I have not deserted him and I will hold him close to My Heart and give him the comfort he needs at this terrible time.His throne has been stolen. His power has not.”

About this day, it seemed to me that the date itself had to be manipulated – a mockery of Our Lady (13th) – one of many to come. I remember there were many things about this election – one was that there were more ballots than usual allowed on this day.

Pope Benedict was astute. He still managed to do things behind the scenes, even though he had “minders” who travelled between Francis’ court and the place where he lived. One thing that stands out, and that puts a smile on my face, when he collaborated with Cardinal Sarah to write a book, and published without the Vatican knowing anything about it. It was about celibacy and the priesthood. They got in first, before the Vatican could announce anything about celibacy. Afterwards, they tried to make the publisher remove Benedict’s name from the authors.

Last Humiliation: Requiem Without Roman Canon

The article below is from Gloria TV:

https://gloria.tv/post/M9V84VKc3BiP6ZTq7iAnbitHA

The Vatican has published the brochure for Benedict XVI’s funeral.

Most strikingly, for the first time since at least the 6th century, the Roman Canon will NOT be used at a Requiem for a Pope.

Also, the Gospel will not be solemnly sung in Latin – which has always been the case at such a liturgy.

Francis, 86, will not celebrate but be present in a cope. Nevertheless, he is referred to as the “presider”. His parts are labelled “The Holy Father”, but at the Eucharistic Prayer the booklet simply refers to “the celebrant” that is Cardinal Re, 88, the Dean of the College of Cardinals. (This, last part, is probably a blessing.

However, the devil does not have the last laugh. Today there will be many Requiem Masses celebrated for our beloved pontiff at the same time that it will be celebrated in Rome.

Prophesies involving Benedict and the devastation of Rome after his death.

  • POPE PIUS X  (1909)

Here is the prophecy of Pope Pius X, where he states that the “forced to flee” pope-martyr (also described by Sister Lucia of Fatima as the pope in white who will be killed) will have his name… Giuseppe = JosephThis could only be Joseph Ratzinger, Benedict XVI:

” In 1909, during an audience for the general chapter of the Franciscan Order, Pope Pius X suddenly fell into a trance. The audience waited in reverent silence. When he awoke, the Pope cried out:

“What I see is terrifying! Will it be myself? Will it be my successor? What is certain is that the Pope will quit Rome, and in leaving the Vatican he will have to walk over the dead bodies of his priests. [This was precisely the vision sister Lucia received of the martyr pope dressed in white!

Just prior to his death (August 20, 1914), Pope Pius X had another vision:

“I have seen one of my successors, of the same name, who was fleeing over the bodies of his brethren. He will take refuge in some hiding place; but after a brief respite he will die a cruel death.

  • OUR LADY OF GOOD SUCCESS (1563 – 1635)

“How the Church will suffer on that occasion – the dark night of the lack of a Prelate and Father to watch over them… The lukewarmness of all the souls consecrated to God in the priestly and religious state will delay the coming of this Prelate and Father.”

  • July 7, 1880  Jesus tells Marie-Julie Jahenny:

The church will be deprived of Her supreme chief that is now the guidance. [This is the loss of Benedict’s administrative function- 2013.] The Chief of the Church will be offended outrageously.” [But “as a Lamb before the slaughter, he opened not his mouth.” ]

  • Ven. Bartholomew Holzhauser,founder of the secular clergy societies in the eighteenth century: “God will permit a great evil against His Church: they will come bursting in suddenly and unexpectedly while bishops and priests are asleep. They shall enter into Italy and devastate Rome, burn churches and destroy everything.”
    • Mother Elena Aiello, famed stigmatic who was often consulted by Pope Pius XII: “Italy will be shaken by a great revolution (…) Russia will prevail over the nations, and especially over Italy, and will raise the red flag over the dome of St. Peter.”

 

  • Elena Leonardi, spiritually guided by Padre Pio:The Vatican will be invaded by communist revolutionaries. They will betray the Pope. Italy will suffer a major revolt and will be cleansed by a great revolution. Russia will march on Rome and the Pope will be severely endangered”.

 

  • Maria Steiner, mystic: “The holy Church will be persecuted, Rome will be without a shepherd.” Instead, as Our Lord said, “The Abomination of Desolation” shall “stand in the Holy Place” which can only be St. Peter’s.  Or as St. Paul said, that the “Man of Sin” “the Son of Perdition” will sit in “the Temple of God.” 

 

  • When Cardinal Manning Prophesied Exactly What We Are Living Through, Including the City of Rome Losing the Vicariate of Christ.

From: https://www.barnhardt.biz/2022/12/31/when-cardinal-manning-prophesied-exactly-what-we-are-living-through-including-the-city-of-rome-losing-the-vicariate-of-christ-anyone-still-living-in-rome-would-do-well-to-get-out-asap/

“The writers of the Church tell us that in the latter days the city of Rome will probably become apostate from the Church and Vicar of Jesus Christ; and that Rome will again be punished, for he will depart from it; and the judgment of God will fall on the place from which he once reigned over the nations of the world. For what is it that makes Rome sacred, but the presence of the Vicar of Jesus Christ? What has it that should be dear in the sight of God, save only the presence of the Vicar of His Son ? Let the Church of Christ depart from Rome, and Rome will be no more in the eyes of God than Jerusalem of old. Jerusalem, the Holy City, chosen by God, was cast down and consumed by fire, because it crucified the Lord of Glory; and the city of Rome, which has been the seat of the Vicar of Jesus Christ for eighteen hundred years, if it become apostate, like Jerusalem of old, will suffer a like condemnation. And, therefore, the writers of the Church tell us that the city of Rome has no prerogative except only that the Vicar of Christ is there ; and if it become unfaithful, the same judgments which fell on Jerusalem, hallowed though it was by the presence of the Son of God, of the Master, and not the disciple only, shall fall likewise upon Rome.

The apostasy of the city of Rome from the Vicar of Christ, and its destruction by Antichrist, may be thoughts so new to many Catholics, that I think it well to recite the text of theologians in the greatest repute. First, Malvenda, who writes expressly on the subject, states as the opinion of Ribera, Gaspar Melus, Viegas, Suarez, Bellarmine, and Bosius, that Rome shall apostatise from the faith, drive away the Vicar of Christ, and return to its ancient paganism.* Malvenda’s words are: “But Rome itself in the last times of the world will return to its ancient idolatry, power, and imperial greatness. It will cast out its Pontiff, altogether apostatise from the Christian faith, terribly persecute the Church, shed the blood of martyrs more cruelly than ever, and will recover its former state of abundant wealth, or even greater than it had under its first rulers.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Suffering Church Part 2: The Church, Pope Benedict and the False Prophet

AM+DG

There is no doubt that Pope Benedict XVI suffered (as shown in yesterday’s post). He expected it. He was Pope JPII’s right hand man and ‘Prefect of the Congregation of the Faith’. As such, he saw the sufferings of St JPII. Jesus told us:

“Many Popes have been prisoners in the Holy See surrounded by Masonic groups who do not represent God. They hate God and have spent fifty years spreading untruths about the Mercy of God. Their works have led to the collapse of the Catholic Church.This was not an accident. It was deliberately and cunningly plotted in order to destroy the faith of the Church. To destroy the homage of ordinary Catholics to the One True God. For this you will now be cast aside into the wilderness.  (7 May 2012 Message 0413).

Pope Benedict XVI said on the day he was elected :

“Pray for me, that I do not flee for fear of the wolves.” In fact, he was not supposed to be chosen. As has been revealed, the “St. Gallen Mafia” (self-named group of Cardinal electors)  had been meeting regularly, over a period of years, designing strategies so that their own man would be elected. They did not want Ratzinger to be elected. Their man — a bishop from Argentina (Jorge Bergoglio) – narrowly missed out. The St Gallen group kept meeting. In the end they succeeded when Pope Benedict was “ousted” (Jesus’ words). The newly elected took the name “Francis”

Of this, Jesus said:

“This pope may be elected by members within the Catholic Church, but he will be the false prophet. His electors are wolves in sheep’s clothing and are members of the secret Masonic and evil group led by Satan. This is how Satan will try to destroy My Church. (12 April 2012 Message 0394)

Jesus also said:

My beloved Pope Benedict XVI is the last true pope on this Earth.”

On the day that Francis ascended the throne (13 March 2013)Jesus said:

“… My beloved Pope Benedict XVI was persecuted and fled, as foretold. I have not appointed this person, who claims to come in My Name. He, Pope Benedict, will guide My followers towards the Truth. I have not deserted him and I will hold him close to My Heart and give him the comfort he needs at this terrible time. His throne has been stolen. His power has not.” (Message 0728)

++++++++++++++++++

The suffering  of the Church in these times has also been prophesied:

  • St Francis of Assisi (1226) warned us about a false pope and his effect fruits:

“…there will be very few Christians who will obey the true Sovereign Pontiff and the Roman Church with loyal hearts and perfect charity. At the time of this tribulation a man, not canonically elected, will be raised to the Pontificate, who, by his cunning, will endeavour to draw many into error and death.

“. Then scandals will be multiplied, our Order will be divided, and many others will be entirely destroyed, because they will consent to error instead of opposing it.

“. There will be such diversity of opinions and schisms among the people, the religious and the clergy, that, except those days were shortened, according to the words of the Gospel, even the elect would be led into error, were they not specially guided, amid such great confusion, by the immense mercy of God.

“7. Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it under foot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor, but a destroyer.

 

  • ANNE CATHERINE EMMERICH:

May 13, 1820:  “I saw also the relationship between the two popes. . .I saw how baleful (harmful) would be the consequences of this false church

October 1, 1820  “The Little Black Man in Rome, whom I see so often, has many working for him without their clearly knowing for what end. He has his agents in the New Black Church also. If the Pope leaves Rome, the enemies of the Church will get the upper hand…”

  • LA SALETTE: 1846
  • ‘Rome will lose the faith and become the seat of the antichrist.’

The Church will be eclipsed, the world will be in consternation..” [Abbé Combe, the editor of the 1904 edition, adds the following note after this paragraph. ‘I have from Melanie that the Church will be eclipsed in this sense, that 1) one will not know which is the true pope; 2) for a time: the holy Sacrifice will cease to be offered in churches, and also in houses: so there will be no more public worship. But she saw that yet the holy Sacrifice would not cease: it would be offered in caves, in tunnels, in barns and in alcoves.’]

  • VEN. ARCHBISHOP FULTON SHEEN (1950)

“The mystical body on earth today will have its Judas Iscariot and he will be the false prophet. Satan will recruit him from among our bishops.

 “The False Prophet will have a religion without a cross. A religion without a world to come. A religion to destroy religions. There will be a counterfeit church. Christ’s Church [the Catholic Church] will be one. And the False Prophet will create the other. The false church will be worldly  ecumenical, and global. It will be a loose federation of churches. And religions forming some type of global association. A world parliament of churches. It will be emptied of all divine content and will be the mystical body of the Antichrist.”

Jesus speaks to the Suffering Church:

Excerpts from Book of Truth

7 May 2012 @ 6:19pm; Message 0413

“My dearly beloved daughter, to My churches through the world I say this. Know that I will always be with you at your side as long as your proclaim My Most Holy Word.

To My Catholic Church, even though you caused torment as a result of evil sin know that I will never forsake you, although you have sinned. But know this.Your faith in Me is not as strong as it should be. You do not love Me as you once did. All the wealth you accumulated, put a distance between Me, your Christ and Saviour, and God’s ordinary children. You scaled such lofty heights that I could not reach up to you and offer you My hand to salvage you from the rot within your core. You were taught the truth by My Peter upon whose rock you were built. And what did you do?

You built thick stone walls around you. This caused a lack of communication with those whom you needed to feed with My Body and Blood so that their souls could be nourished. The respect required of you in administering My Most Holy Eucharist was lost when you demeaned My Presence. When Vatican II declared new rules they were introduced by those evil Masonic forces from within your corridors. They cunningly presented new ways to administer My Holy Eucharist which are insulting to Me.

Your so called tolerant teachings proclaimed a series of lies including the refusal to acknowledge the power of St Michael the Archangel. He is the protector of the Church against Satan. Those forces among you knew this. This is why you stopped all prayers requesting his help before Me at the Holy Mass.

Then you perpetrated the biggest untruth that Hell was not to be feared. That it was just a metaphor. For this lie, accepted as the truth by many of God’s children, has meant the loss of billions of souls.

How you offend Me. For those humble and sacred servants among you I ask that you go back to My Teachings. Never allow riches to accumulate amongst you and think that they are acceptable in My eyes. Riches, gold and power accumulated in My Name will be your downfall. You cannot profit from My Holy Word. You have suffered because of the way you have offended Me.

Never think that I am blaming the many Holy Popes who have sat in the seat of Peter. Their mission has always been protected.

Many Popes have been prisoners in the Holy See surrounded by Masonic groups who do not represent God. They hate God and have spent fifty years spreading untruths about the Mercy of God. Their works have led to the collapse of the Catholic Church. This was not an accident. It was deliberately and cunningly plotted in order to destroy the faith of the Church. To destroy the homage of ordinary Catholics to the One True God.

For this you will now be cast aside into the wilderness. After Pope Benedict, you will be led by Me, from the Heavens.

Oh how you have made Me weep.

I call on all of My sacred servants who know the truth to stand up and follow Me, your Jesus, to spread the truth of My Teachings in humble servitude. You must find the courage and the strength to rise from the ashes. Above all, reject the lies which will shortly be presented to you by the False Prophet.

He will merge the Catholic Church with other churches, including pagan churches, to become one abomination, a one world church without a soul.

Your Jesus

Excerpts from the Book of Truth

  •  This pope may be elected by members within the Catholic Church, but he will be the false prophet. His electors are wolves in sheep’s clothing and are members of the secret Masonic and evil group led by Satan. 12 April 2012 @ 11:27am; Message 0394

 

  • “..I call on all of My sacred servants who know the truth to stand up and follow Me, your Jesus, to spread the truth of My Teachings in humble servitude.

  • This is how Satan will try to destroy My Church.Sadly, he will, this false prophet, attract a large following. Those who oppose him will be persecuted. Run children, while you can. Denounce the lies, which will be presented by those who attempt to convince you of the authenticity of the false prophet. Be strong. Stay faithful to Me, your Jesus. Never doubt My Holy Word. The Book of Revelation is the True Word of God. It does not lie.”  12 April 2012 @ 11:27am; Message 0394

     

  • “Please recite this Crusade Prayer (44) Strength to defend my Faith against the false prophet

    ‘Dear Jesus, give me the strength to focus on Your Teachings and to proclaim Your Holy Word at all times. Never allow me to be tempted to idolise the false prophet, who will try to present himself as You. Keep my love for You strong. Give me the graces of Discernment, so that I will never deny the Truth contained in the Holy Bible no matter how many lies are presented to me to encourage me to turn my back on Your True Word.  Amen’

    The Truth is written in Holy Scripture.”

 

  • Make no mistake, the Truth has been revealed to you. I have told you, My followers, how you will be deceived. This will be very difficult for you because you will question this imposter who sits in My Father’s House. My beloved Pope Benedict XVI was persecuted and fled, as foretold. I have not appointed this person, who claims to come in My Name.” (13 March 2013 @ 9:20pm; Message 0728)

     

  • Mother of Salvation: The time for me to crush the serpent is drawing nearer

    10 April 2012 @ 8:45pm; Message 0392

    “… The time for me to crush the serpent is drawing nearer, until the day when Satan and his demons are cast into the wilderness, much confusion will erupt on Earth. For believers in my Son, it will be a time of torment. They will be pulled into two different directions, by the Catholic Church. One half will believe, out of duty, the need to follow the false prophet, the pope who will follow Pope Benedict XVI.

    He, the beast, is dressed like a lamb, but is not from my Father, God the Most High, and will fool poor souls, including priests, bishops and cardinals.Many will follow him and believe him to be sent by God to rule over His Church on Earth. Sadly, many souls will follow his teachings, which will be insulting to My Father. Others, filled with the Holy Spirit and given the graces of Discernment because of their humble souls, will know instantly, that an imposter sits in the Church in Rome.

    The new false pope is already scheming, even before he ascends to the Throne of the Seat of Peter, to denounce the Teachings of my Son. Then he will denounce me, the Blessed Mother of God and ridicule my role as Co-Redemptrix.     

    Pray, pray, pray, for without prayer, especially the recital of my Holy Rosary, Satan can pull you away from the Holy Word of my precious Son.

    Remember also the importance of fasting, for it keeps the deceiver at bay.

    Without regular prayer, my children will find it hard to remain close to my Son.

    Never fear the future, children, for once you remain close to my Son you will be protected and given the necessary Graces to prepare your souls and those of your families, for the New Era of Peace foretold so long ago.

    Your beloved Mother

    Queen of the Earth, Mother of Salvation”

Jesus describes the imminent advent of the False Prophet

  • 17 February 2013 @ 7:00pm; Message 0708

“My dearly beloved daughter, the schism within the Catholic Church, as foretold, will now be witnessed, for all the world to see. The departure of My dearly beloved Holy Vicar, Pope Benedict XVI, marks the beginning of the end. I have, through you, My chosen prophet, over the last two years, tried to prepare My Church on earth for this sad event.

The Masonic elite have grasped control over My Church and they will wield the most wicked deceit upon Catholics. The Keys of Rome are now within My Hands having been passed over to Me by My Father. I will direct all of My followers so that the Truth can be sustained and that My Holy Word remains intact.

The false prophet will now take over the Seat in Rome and My Word, just as it was in My Time on earth, will be treated as heresy. …

My followers must remain calm and pray for the salvation of all of My most sacred servants who will be caught up in this abomination. I call on them to respond as follows.

Continue to follow My Teachings. Never waive from the Word of God. Remain loyal to your sacred duties and administer the Holy Sacraments as you have been instructed by Me.

The Teachings of the Catholic Church, based on its formation by My Apostle Peter, remain infallible. Now this will change once the foundation is rocked by the changes to come. Shortly, you will no longer recognise My Church and you will feel very uncomfortable when you witness how My Holy Word will be tampered with.”

  • 8 March 2013 @ 2:05pm; Message 0724

The cunning imposter, who has lain in waiting in the wings, patiently, will soon declare his reign over My poor unsuspecting sacred servants. The pain he will inflict is too hard for Me to bear, and yet, his reign will culminate in the final purging of evil from within the core of My Church.

 

He has carefully manipulated his position and soon his pompous demeanor will be seen amidst his splendid court. His pride, arrogance and self-obsession will be carefully hidden from the world in the beginning.  To the outside world, a sigh of relief will be heard as the trumpets peal out to announce his term as head of My Church.

My Body is My Church, but it will not be to Me, Jesus Christ, he will pledge his loyalty, for he does not possess any love for Me His loyalty is to the beast and how he will laugh and sneer at My sacred servants who will support him. 

He who dares to sit in My Temple, and who has been sent by the evil one, cannot speak the truth, for he does not come from Me. He has been sent to dismantle My Church and tear it up into little pieces before he will spit it out from his vile mouth.

My Body is My Church. My Church is still alive but only those who speak the Truth and adhere to the Holy Word of God can be part of My Church on earth. Now that the final insult is to be manifested against Me, Jesus Christ, through the Chair of Peter, you will finally understand the Truth.

The Book of Truth, foretold to Daniel, for the time of the end, will not be taken lightly by members of My Church, for its content will sicken My beloved sacred servants when they realise that I speak the Truth.

The false prophet – he who poses as the leader of My Church – is ready to wear the robes, which were not made for him.

He will desecrate My Holy Eucharist and will divide My Church in half and then by half again.

He will make efforts to dismiss those loyal followers of My beloved Holy Vicar Pope Benedict XVI, appointed by Me.

He will root out all those who are loyal to My Teachings and throw them to the wolves.

His actions won’t become apparent immediately, but soon the signs will be seen as he sets out to seek the support of influential world leaders and those in high places.

When the abomination takes root the changes will be sudden. Announcements by him to create a united Catholic Church by linking up with all faiths and other religions will come soon after.

He will head up the new one-world religion and will reign over pagan religions. He will embrace atheism by waivering the stigma he will say is attached in the pursuit of so-called human rights.  All sins, in the Eyes of God, will be deemed acceptable by this new inclusive-Church.

Any one who dares to challenge him will be sought out and punished. Those priests, bishops and cardinals who oppose him will be excommunicated and stripped of their titles. Others will be bullied and persecuted with many priests having to go into hiding.

To those poor sacred servants of Mine who recognise My Voice now, please hear Me as I reach out to you to bring you comfort. I would never ask you to reject My Church on earth for it was I, your beloved Saviour, who created it. I offered My Body up as the Living Sacrifice to save you. You have been given the responsibility to testify on My behalf in order to save the souls of those whom you instruct and guide.

All you can do is trust in Me and continue to serve Me. What you must not do is to accept any doctrine presented to you and which you will know, instantly, is not in accordance with My Teachings You must do what your heart tells you, but know this.

This period is going to cause you deep pain and the raw grief you will experience when you see how My Church will be desecrated will leave you weeping. But you must recognize the lies which are to be presented to you for what they are – an affront to My death on the Cross.

This destruction may result in the collapse of the structure of My Church. The changes and adaptations of buildings along with the new temple created for the one world church will be crafted and placed in Rome. 

Be assured that, just as My Temple is desecrated, that I, Jesus Christ, the Saviour of all mankind, will be discarded and thrown into the gutter.

Your Jesus

++++++++++++++++++++++

The prophecies are all coming to fruition. We have been warned by heaven for centuries about what is to come, but somehow we dismissed or ignored them. Satan is destroying the Church, brick by brick. Satan is very cunning, as we know, and has employed all of society in his evil plans.

Pray for Christ’s Church; pray for our priests and  bishops: they are also under attack and need our prayers. We need them to fortify us with the Sacraments. Stand up for Jesus!!!

The Book of Truth was prophesied in Daniel. Jesus loves all of us and weeps for the persecution we are undergoing. We are forewarned of events in the Book of Truth.

 

 

 

 

Prophecies of Pope Benedict’s sufferings

AM+DGProphecies are not always as clear as they seem to be. A clear example is the Fatima prophecy – the part about a a bishop dressed in white, and a figure referred to later as the “pope”. Many years ago, I always thought they were one and the same person, but in recent years we have had a pope, and then also a “bishop dressed in white”. The Pope climbs the “mountain”, stumbling over the dead bodies of priests and religious, and is finally “killed” with “arrows and bullets”.

Is the mountain the mountain of metaphorical Crucifixion? The one where the Mystical Body of Christ (the Church), will once again be tortured and mocked and finally crucified? Are the dead bodies of priests and religious the victims of this spiritual war? Are the bullets and arrows, the weapons used, actually words and actions; the denial of Hell, the blasphemies against our Lady, the Rosary and the traditional faithful; the scandals amongst the bishops and priests; the changes to the Sacraments, heresies, blasphemies and pagan ceremonies?Now, I have had to rethink it all. God’s ways are different to ours. Surely this message is figurative, and the meaning unknown because the “Third Secret” was not fully released. It is all guesswork.

Pope Benedict  after he was “ousted” (by the false prophet), lived in a “place other than before”. Did he just live a quiet life and pray a lot for the Church? Did he suffer? When he visited his dying brother, why did they quickly put him back into a plane and rush him back to Rome? Persecution of theology, silenced, ridicule of his person and teachings, scorned by religious peers who would not shake his hand…how else did he suffer?

++++++++++++

In the Prophecies of Our Lady and the Saints, there have been many prophecies about the sufferings of a pope in these end times.

Overview of prophecies about the sufferings of a pope in the end times:

Mother Mariana De Jesus Torres (17th Century) – Our Lady of Good Success, Quito, Ecuador:

“This apparent triumph of Satan will bring enormous sufferings to the good Pastors of the Church, the many good priests, and the Supreme Pastor and Vicar of Christ on Earth, who, a prisoner in the Vatican, will shed secret and bitter tears in the presence of his God and Lord, beseeching light, sanctity, and perfection for all the clergy of the world, of whom he is King and Father.”

Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich: 1820

July, 1820

“I saw the Holy Father surrounded by traitors and in great distress about the Church. He had visions and apparitions in his hour of greatest need. I saw many good pious Bishops; but they were weak and wavering, their cowardice often got the upper hand…Then I saw darkness spreading around and people no longer seeking the true Church.”  

August 10, 1820

“I see the Holy Father in great anguish. He lives in a palace other than before and he admits only a limited number of friends near him. I fear that the Holy Father will suffer many more trials before he dies. … The Holy Father and the Church are verily in so great a distress that one must implore God night and day…”

“Last night I was taken to Rome where the Holy Father immersed in his sorrow, is still hiding to elude dangerous demands (made upon him). He is still very weak, and exhausted by sorrows, cares and prayers. He can now trust but few people. That is mainly why he is hiding. But he still has with him an aged priest who has much simplicity and godliness … It was required of me to inform him while he was praying, of the traitors and evil doers who were to be found among the high ranking servants living close to him, so that he might be made aware of it.”

October 1, 1820

“The Church is in great danger. We must pray so that the Pope may not leave Rome; countless evils would result if he did. They are now demanding something from him. The Protestant doctrine and that of the schismatic Greeks are to spread everywhere. I now see that in this place (Rome) the (Catholic) Church is being so cleverly undermined, that there hardly remain a hundred or so priests who have not been deceived. They all work for destruction, even the clergy. A great devastation is now near at hand.”

La Salette: 1846

  • “The Holy Father will suffer a great deal because for a while the Church will yield to large persecution, a time of darkness and the Church will witness a frightful crisis”
  • Several religious institutions will lose all faith and will lose many souls…A great number of priests and members of religious orders will break away from the true religion. Among these people, there will even be bishops”

Pope Pius 1X:

“The church will suffer exceedingly. Her servants and her chieftain will be mocked, scourged, and martyred.”

Fatima 1917

“The world will be afflicted with wars, famine, the martyrdom of the good, persecution of the Church and the Holy Father, the annihilation of nations, and apostasy from the one true Faith.

Our Lady to Fr. Gobbi 

  • The episcopates are maintaining a strange silence and are no longer reacting. When my Pope speaks with courage and reaffirms with force the truths of the Catholic faith, he is no longer listened to and is even publicly criticized and derided. There is a subtle and diabolical tactic, woven in secrecy by Masonry, which is used today against the Holy Father in order to bring ridicule upon his person and his work and to neutralize his Magisterium.”

++++++++++++++++

There is no doubt that Pope Benedict suffered.

I call on all of my children, everywhere, to pray for Pope Benedict XVI, who is in danger of being exiled from Rome.

My Holy Vicar, Pope Benedict, needs your prayers. Pray for him daily for he needs protection on every level to take him through the torment that lies ahead. It is important that My followers keep alert to any new pope that may come forward for he will not be from God. Please urge all My sacred servants to prepare for the terrible challenges, the most daunting they will ever have to face in their ministry. It will take great courage to stand up to the Truth of My Teachings…”

  • From Jesus: The Keys of Rome now being handed back to God the Almighty Father  6 June 2011 @ 10:30am; Message 0105

Pray for My beloved Pope Benedict. He is surrounded by very powerful enemies of God, gluttons for power and control of My Church. Prayer can help delay his imminent departure, when he will be forced to leave the Vatican as foretold. Pray, pray, pray for this period in time, for it will be the darkest ever to befall My sacred servants, Bishops, Cardinals and all true followers of Mine. The Keys of Rome will now be handed back to God the Almighty Father….”

  • Jesus: Soon My Beloved Pope Benedict will guide God’s children from his place of exile. 29 March 2013 @ 8:45am; Message 0746   Message # 2 on Good Friday

“…The Crucifixion of My Mystical Body – My Church on Earth – commences today, the beginning of the final persecution, as the Masonic plan to defile My House, will now become clear to all who know the Truth.

History will now repeat itself, but the Truth will not be denied. Those who will deny Me, however, will in time turn to Me. Those who know that the prophecies foretold – that My Church will be the final target in ridding the world of all traces of Me, Jesus Christ –  are now taking place, will follow Me in My Remnant Army. They will remain loyal to My Teachings to the end of time.

No one can stop the True Word of God from spreading. No one. The reign in the House of Peter will be short and soon My Beloved Pope Benedict will guide God’s children from his place of exile. Peter, My Apostle, the founder of My Church on earth, will guide him in the last difficult days, as My Church fights for its Life….”

  • The time is near for the persecution of My Beloved Vicar, Pope Benedict XVI to reach its pinnacle.  16 July 2012 @ 3:15pm; Message 0489

For the time is near for the persecution of My Beloved Vicar, Pope Benedict XVI to reach its pinnacle. Very soon he will be forced to flee the Vatican. Then the time will come when My Church will divide, one side against the other.

I call on all of My sacred servants to remember your most holy vows. Never forsake your mission. Never forsake Me. Never accept lies in lieu of the Truth. You must ask Me to help you in the difficult times ahead. You must rise, unite and follow Me.”

  • They intend to oust Pope Benedict XVI from the Seat of Peter using devious means.  26 May 2012 @ 4:00pm; Message 0438“… Today I ask of My followers, My dearest daughter, to pray hard for My beloved Vicar Pope Benedict XVI . He, My Holy Servant is under terrible persecution behind closed doors in the Holy See. I have told you before that the Masonic Groups who have a vice like grip inside The Vatican want My Beloved Pope out. And they intend to oust him from the Seat of Peter using devious means. He will, as I have told you in the past, have to flee for he will have little choice. This time is short. You must pray hard that he can stay as long as possible for as soon as he leaves, the impostor, the False Prophet, will take his place.

“…Ask everyone to pray for My beloved Holy Vicar Pope Benedict, for he is surrounded by the enemies of My Eternal Father. Pray for the priests who have never wavered in their faith to Me or My Eternal Father.

Rise of the false prophet
They need to pray hard now, as the outcome of this attack on My Holy Vicar will be witnessed by you all. Pray, pray, pray that the false prophet will be identified for what he is. Watch out for his demeanour. His attention seeking agenda, the way in which My misguided sacred servants will drop in awe at his feet. Then listen to what he has to say, carefully. His humility will be false, his intentions mischievous and the love he exudes will be all about him. He will be seen as being innovative, dynamic – a breath of fresh air. While he is driven and energetic, his powers will not come from God the Eternal Father. They come from Satan, the evil one….”

Just as the Church is My Body on earth, so it too will be crowned with the thorns of scourging as it was during My journey to Calvary. The Crown of Thorns signifies the Head of My Holy Church on earth. Pope Benedict will suffer much as he will be persecuted for speaking the Truth. He will be crushed, as Head of My Church, and no mercy will be shown to him. The opposition will mount quickly as he will be declared no longer relevant. Those who will claim to be more modern  in their approach to apostolic ways will swipe at him and ridicule his words. Then the Head of My Church will be replaced by the Head of the Serpent….”+++++++++++++++

There are many more prophecies about Pope Benedict in the Book of Truth. Anyone with the power of Reason can equate these messages with the truth of events that have happened. These ones, are all in the couple of years before he left the Vatican.

+++++++++++++++++

Jesus speaks and describes the False Prophet in some of these, and also many other messages. Since it seems that we now no longer have the one who has been restraining, it makes sense to expect the worst from the False Prophet.  I will publish more of these messages in full, in the next few weeks.

“… I cried tears of great joy when I first saw His beautiful Face.”

Virgin Mary: I experienced the same suffering

08 December 2011 @ 9:10pm; Message 0271

My child, when I gave birth to Jesus Christ, the Redeemer of all mankind, I was like any mother. My love for this child was so overwhelming, I cried tears of great joy when I first saw His beautiful Face. Yet I knew that the role I had accepted would not be easy, although I never realized, at the time, how difficult this journey would be.

When I looked into the precious Face of my cherished Child, nothing mattered, only my desire to protect Him at all times whatever the cost.

My Heart was conjoined with that of my Son then as it is today. This same Heart suffered in union with Him through every moment of His life on Earth.

Every joy He felt, I too could feel. His laughter brought a smile to my face. His sorrow pained me deeply.

His torture during His Crucifixion was felt in every bone in my body. Every nail, which pierced His Flesh, pierced mine.For every punch and kick He received at the hands of His persecutors, I felt also.

I experienced the same suffering, yet I was not present for much of the torture inflicted on Him, which was hidden from me and His disciples.

Today I suffer with my Son, just as it was then, when He is mocked in the world today and ridiculed in public, on the stage and in the media, especially by atheists, I cry tears of bitterness.

When I see my precious Son weeping at the sins He witnesses every day, I too weep with Him. I see, feel and witness His ongoing suffering for mankind.

Jesus Christ, the Saviour of Mankind, has suffered for all of you, but loves all of you very much.

I will do everything I can to fulfil His dearest wish to save every single soul on Earth from the clutches of the evil one.

When this Mission has succeeded, then and only then, can I rejoice in final peace when my children reunite as one in the New Paradise.

Pray, my child, that all those who pray for the salvation of souls that not one soul is excluded.

Go in peace and continue this most important Mission for my beloved Son.
I will protect you at all times.

Your beloved Mother
Queen of Heaven

(This Message was received after Mass and immediately after a private apparition in front of her statue, which lasted 20 minutes, in which the Virgin Mary remained solemn with her veil blowing.)

The Power of a Name!

AM+DG

 

 

 

The Power of a Name

Today, in the Traditional Rite, we celebrate the Holy Name of Jesus. The Power of this name is something, that we were always taught, but it is rarely mentioned now. It is a weapon, a comfort, a help we should never ignore.

Today, however, this most Powerful and Beautiful Name is used to curse and swear; it is blasphemed and mocked. Once upon a time, we would see every person in Church bow their heads or give a little nod every time It is heard.

Benefits of invoking the Name of Jesus:

  • brings us help in bodily needs:

“In my name They shall take up serpents; and if they shall drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them: they shall lay their hands upon the sick, and they shall recover.” (Mark 16:17-18)

In the Name of Jesus the Apostles gave strength to the lame (Acts 3:6; 9:34) and life to the dead (Acts 9:40).

  • It gives consolation in spiritual trials:

The Name of Jesus reminds the sinner of the prodigal son’s father and of the Good Samaritan; it recalls to the just the suffering and death of the innocent Lamb of God.

  • It protects us against Satan and his wiles, for the Devil fears the Name of Jesus, who has conquered him on the Cross.
  • In It we obtain every blessing and grace for time and eternity:

If you ask the Father anything in my name he will give it you.” (John 16:23)

Bernadine loved this devotion to the Holy Name. Below is a prayer he would say every day:

Jesus, Name full of glory, grace, love and strength! 
You are the refuge of those who repent,
our banner of warfare in this life,
the medicine of souls,
the comfort of those who mourn, 
the delight of those who believe, 
the light of those who preach the true faith,
the wages of those who toil, the healing of the sick.
To you our devotion aspires;
by you our prayers are received; 
we delight in contemplating you. 
O Name of Jesus, you are the glory of all the saints for eternity. 
Amen.

 “The Golden Arrow Prayer,” was revealed by Jesus to a Carmelite nun of Tours in 1843 as a reparation for blasphemy:

“May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most mysterious and unutterable Name of God be always praised, blessed, loved, adored and glorified in heaven on earth and under the earth, by all the creatures of God, and by the Sacred Heart of our Lord Jesus Christ in the most Holy Sacrament of the altar.”

From: https://aleteia.org/2019/01/14/st-bernardine-of-sienas-prayer-to-the-holy-name-of-jesus/

In the following Litany, (one of my favourites) there is a different reason/power  for every line – i.e. each time the Name of Jesus is invoked.

Give us, O Lord, a perpetual fear and love of Thy holy name; for Thou never failest to govern those whom Thou dost solidly establish in Thy love. Who livest and reignest, world without end. R. Amen.

 

 

 

“Do not reject me like the Pharisees did. This time you should recognise My Voice.”

My Church must trust Me. They must remove their shackles of fear and doubt and allow Me make myself known

28 June 2012 @ 3:00pm; Message 0471

My dearly beloved daughter, it must be known that those who profess to come in My Name, as prophets, but who do not speak in the tongues from Heaven, are increasing in numbers.

So many of these souls are being infected by fallen angels and speak in carefully constructed, but loving tones, reminiscent of what you would expect to be My Sacred Voice.

Oh how My poor devoted followers are being deceived now and how confused they will be. Who to trust? Who to follow? Who to believe?

Did I not say that many will come in My Name but few with speak with My Voice?

There are fewer than twenty who have permission to impart to the world the Word of God and this includes those who are given divine messages from Heaven by My beloved Mother.

Many other seers are also present in the world but their mission is different.

Their role can be one of daily prayer to help save humanity or one of personal suffering, offered up as a gift to Me, to save souls from Satan. Suffering in this way, willingly, crushes the power of Satan over many men’s souls.

My prophets are few and you will know them by My true Voice which will strike the hearts and souls of God’s children in a way which is impossible to ignore.

My messages to the world for these times will be detailed and will unveil truths not revealed before.

Much of what I give you now is simply to remind you of My Teachings.

Much of what I present to you now is the food of life, given to you through My Crusade Prayers, to help save your souls and those of others at My Second Coming.

Many other messages given to others will be similar but will not go into as much detail.

Their missions are just as important as they will convert souls.

Always remember this. I am trying to show you how much I love you and wish to reveal the Truth of My existence.

The proof of this will at last be revealed to all of God’s children soon.

Please do not fight amongst each other trying to outdo each other in terms of your spiritual knowledge.

The Truth is this.

No man knows the Truth contained in the Seals hidden in the Book of Revelation.

As I have told you before, they were sealed up, in the Book of Truth, until now, the end times.

I, Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, now open these to prepare you for My New Kingdom.

You have been given the Holy Scripture to prepare you and now you must allow Me, the King of all Mankind, to tell you the Truth of what is to come.

By doing this I will be able to lead you through what will be a minefield of deceit, persecution and hatred.

Allow Me, all of you, including all members of My Church on Earth, to bring you over these last hurdles to Eternal Life.

My Church must trust Me. They must remove their shackles of fear and doubt and allow Me make myself known through these messages.

Recognise My Love in its pure and simple form.

My Love is not sophisticated and shrouded in mystical syllables.

It is plain for you to see but full of such compassion that it will cut through you like a flame of recognition when you drop your armour of pride and fear.

When you do this it will become easier for you to follow me, Your Jesus.

I came as Saviour the first time.

I come, once again, as Saviour this last time. Only this time My task is even heavier.

The Love of God has died in the world. It is only a flicker.

Were My Second Coming to take place now, few would enter Paradise.

The Warning, My Gift of My Divine Mercy will help convert most of humanity.

Help Me prepare My flock. I need My Church on earth, both clergy and laity, to help Me save all of God’s children.

Please accept My Hand as I reach out and stretch My Call to all nations.

Come with Me, your beloved Jesus. Follow Me this time.

Do not reject me like the Pharisees did. This time you should recognise My Voice.

You should know how I speak by now for you have been given the Holy Scriptures.

Your Jesus

“Families, when together, create an intimate love known only in the Heavens.”

AM+DG

Honour the importance of the Family

25 December 2011 @ 6:00pm; Message 0286

Today My daughter is a celebration of My birth. It is also a special day for families. Remember the Holy Family was also born on this day. This Holy Family has a bearing on people all over the world today.

Just as all souls on earth are part of My Eternal Father’s family then, so too, should people everywhere honour the importance of the family.

It is only through the family that true love is born.While many families in the world suffer from disruption, anger and separation it is important to understand this.

If there were no families on earth there could be no life.The family represents all that My Eternal Father wishes for his children on earth.

Families, when together, create an intimate love known only in the Heavens. Damage the family and you will damage the pure love that exists within each soul which is part of that family.

Satan loves to divide families. Why? Because he knows that the kernel of love, essential to the spiritual growth of humanity, will die when the family is split.

Please pray children for families to unite. Pray for families to pray together. Pray to keep Satan from entering your family home.

Never forget that you are all part of My Father’s family and you must emulate this unity on earth whenever possible. It is not always the case I know but strive always for family unity in order to retain love for one another.

If you do not have a family on earth then remember you are part of the family that My Father created. Strive to join My Father’s family in the New Era of Peace.

Pray for the graces needed to enable you find your rightful home in this New Paradise which you will be invited to enter at My Second Coming.

Your beloved Jesus

Saviour of Mankind
