“…Jesus Christ, cries tears of great sorrow at the way in which He is to be betrayed…”

Pope Francis and the Holy weeks over which he presides: Prophecy being fulfilled

It seems as if each year we can expect some sort of mockery and/or aberration of the Holy Week customs and ceremonies. This year, it started before Holy Week. Lent began by an order from the Vatican ‘not to sign people with the Sign of the Cross’ when administering the ashes. And note, of course, that Holy Water is still not available to us – we know the excuse, but here in Australia, we have no more community transmissions, everything is almost back to normal – why not Holy Water?? Could it be that by removing Holy Water fonts from the entrance of churches, billions of signs of the cross each day have been eradicated, usually made by people entering our Holy Places. Removing holy water also removes the its power against the demons. The evil one must be laughing at his own cunning and our gullibility, and our lack of holy courage.

The Traditional Rite according to the Roman Missal

According to the Rite of the roman Missal, the rite of foot washing on Holy Thursday was performed by a bishop washing the feet of some of his priests within a Cathedral or other significant Church as it was symbolic and representative of Jesus’ act; as close as possible, in imitation. This is what the popes had done over the years- and bishops.

From the reform of Pius XII it was then able to be led by priests enacting in accordance with the rubrics of the Roman Missal; allowing 12 men to be chosen and the Mass to be celebrated in the Evening – see (http://www.ncregister.com/blog/edward-pentin/pope-changes-rules-for-washing-of-the-feet-on-holy-thursday) quoting Arthur Roche (the Archbishop Secretary of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments) explaining as now going:

“beyond the rather clerical and reserved sense, taking place in the public assembly with the direction for ‘twelve men’ which makes it more explicitly an imitative sign, almost a sacred representation, that facilitates what Jesus did, and had in mind, on the first Holy Thursday.” Furthermore, these men were to be chosen from among “the people of God”.

So, the washing of the feet on Holy Thursday, up until a few years ago, looked like this:

Keeping this in mind, read the prophecies below, and the ways in which, each year, PF has deliberately changed the traditional practices, based on Christ’s actions.

The Prophecies

Book of Truth: 3 January 2015 @ 5:05pm

Mother of Salvation: Many substitutions will take place until the new religion is eventually formed

My dear children, the face of my Son’s Church on earth will change beyond recognition and will be substituted by one, which is not of my Son. Substitution after substitution will evolve as the Teachings of my Son will be turned upside down and replaced with false secular doctrines. …

…my Son’s Church will become part of a political movement on a grand scale…

Book of Truth (29 March 2013 @ 7:00pm Message # 3 on Good Friday)

“Today I was betrayed….”

“My dearly beloved daughter when Judas Iscariot betrayed Me, he held My Head and kissed me on the cheek. When those who lead My Church say they love Me, and then betray Me, you will see, clearly, their kiss of betrayal.

Not at My Feet will they fall. It will not be My Feet they kiss, but those of My servants, My followers, My sinners. …”

See complete message at: https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0747/

Also see prophecy dated 8 April 2014 @ 8:20pm: “You will know these traitors by their symbolic gestures, which insult My Divinity”.

See it at: https://missionofsalvation.com/message-1094/

Because of these prophecies, we have come to expect some sort of mockery/ change in Holy Week:

Note that it is not only the rubrics of the washing of the feet, but also the setting: that it is not done in a holy place, least of all at St Peter’s, which surely should be the Holy site of choice, being the seat of St Peter.

2013:

First Pope Francis, straight after his (illicit) election in 2013 in a youth detention centre, broke away from tradition when it was not conducted in St Peter’s basilica or St John Lateran’s basilica. He also departed from tradition, in that he did not wash the feet of 12 priests.

2014:

“In 2014, Francis visited Don Gnocchi, a center for the elderly and disabled. On that occasion, the participants in the foot-washing ritual ranged in age from 16 to 86, and several were in wheelchairs with their feet swollen or disfigured. Four of them were women”. Not men. https://time.com/67081/pope-francis-washes-feet-easter/

So after flouting the rubrics, he decided to issue a decree allowing women to take part. He said they are now officially part of the people of God. His emphasis is on humanism -shows that he is trying to put gender equality first – he is tugging at our heart strings to raise the plight of the poor, the sick and the elderly… BUT the emphasis should be on what Christ did on Holy Thursday.

2015:

In 2015, the Washing of the feet involved more inmates, this time from Rebibbia prison in Rome in 2015.

(CNS photo/L’Osservatore Romano via Reuters):

2016:

PF washed and kissed the feet of refugees at a refugee shelter. The 12 incarcerated prisoners, included Muslim, Orthodox, Hindu and Catholic refugees. This was a further break from tradition, when it included women and girls and non-Christians, outside of the rules of the Roman Missal. The Missal says that the people must be pre-chosen from the people of God. ( See prophecy above: ‘Not at My Feet….)

These gestures represented humanism and the equality of religions. PF even said “we are all children of the same God.” As reported by The Washington Post . https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2016/03/25/children-of-the-same-god-pope-francis-washes-the-feet-of-muslim-migrants/

2017:

Pope Francis washed the feet of Paliano prisoners 14^th April and told them, “we are all sinners”.

2018:

On Good Friday, at the Adoration of the Cross ceremony, Francis did not kiss the feet of Jesus on the Cross, as prescribed by the rubrics. But the previous day, at the foot washing ceremony of Holy Thursday, he had washed and kissed the feet of people including 2 Moslems and a Buddhist. Kissing the feet was not meant to be a part of the ceremony. It was yet another substitution, which he began last year. After the feet are washed, they are dried.

The next day, on Good Friday, 2018, he fulfilled the prophecy of 2013 (see prophecy above: ‘…Judas kissed Me on the cheek…kiss of betrayal..‘) when he did not kiss Jesus’ feet at the Adoration of the Cross, but His face.

See the complete message and prophecy at: https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0747/

2019:

Francis kissed the feet of the South Sudan political leaders. (See prophecy above re “political leaders”) https://catholicismpure.wordpress.com/2019/04/12/showtime-francis-kneels-to-kiss-feet-of-south-sudan-politicians/ )

2020:

Holy week ceremonies were celebrated without the presence of the Faithful due to “health concerns”. Churches were closed and the faithful locked out!!

2021:

This year, many things occurred during Holy Week:

First of all, what saddened me was the Stations of the Cross, which focussed not on the passion and suffering of Jesus, caused by our sins, but on children’s concerns. The prayers merely reinforced an attitude of “poor me”. These prayers did not display to children, that it is Jesus, whom they should be contemplating, and offering their love to, and recognizing the immense Love He has for us. It is teaching children to focus on themselves. Besides all this, the petitions, such as bed-wetting, etc are an immense trivialization and mockery of the Sufferings of Christ. PF held these Stations at an all but empty St. Peter’s Square.

930_Jud-3

Secondly, Pope Francis ‘sermon about Judas directly refutes the Catholic Church’s stance and the words of Jesus Himself. The newspaper of the Holy See, L’Osservatore Romano, dedicated the first three pages of its Maundy Thursday edition to praising Judas Iscariot! It involves a picture of a naked Jesus bending over and tenderly ministering to dead Judas’ body. During his Mass at Santa Marta on Wednesday of Holy Week, Francis stated that Christ himself never called Judas “traitor”:

Quote from https://www.traditioninaction.org/religious/m055_Judas.htm

“The Church always taught that Christ was offering Judas a last chance to dissuade him from committing his heinous crime. But Judas rejected that chance. St. Augustine says that he received this sublime invitation to avoid his own perdition but he rejected it and persisted in his evil purpose.

It is Our Lord Jesus Christ himself who refers to Judas as a damned soul. Christ speaks of the Apostles, saying: “I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost, except the son of perdition.” (John 17:12)

Strong definitive words from the lips of Christ!

About the betrayal of Judas St. Mark reports: “And when they were at table and eating, Jesus said: Amen I say to you, one of you who eateth with me shall betray me. And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him one by one: Is it I? And He answered them and said: One of the twelve, who dippeth his hand with me in the dish.

“And the Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed. It were better for him if that man had not been born.” (Mk 14: 18-21)
Judas and Pf pic.jpg

Thirdly, the Sacred and Solemn Mass of the Lord’s Supper was celebrated in the apartment (private chapel) of a cardinal accused of embezzlement. It was described as an “act of Mercy”. It is highly inappropriate. It should have been in a public place – (St Peter’s would be most fitting) – not a “private chapel”, of one who had been stripped of his status as cardinal. Where was PF for his supposed ‘flock’ at that time?

Finally

from Book of Truth: https://missionofsalvation.com/Message-1302/

“…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 unit and 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.

Pray, pray, pray dear children for the strength to endure the pain, which will ensue. My Son, Jesus Christ, cries tears of great sorrow at the way in which He is to be betrayed and for the souls who will be lost to Him on the way. It will be up to His loyal sacred servants to steer the ship, which will keep His True Church on course as it sails into choppy and stormy waters. But please be assured that every good grace will be accorded to those who remain true to the Saviour and Redeemer of the world during these harrowing and difficult times.

Your beloved Mother
Mother of Salvation.”

Each year, more evidence that the Book of Truth prophecies regarding Holy Week being used to mock Christ, and make substitutions have taken place. For those whose eyes are open…

The Rock of St Peter

The Chair of Rock

Posted on February 22, 2021 by Mark

petroschair_Fotor

ON THE FEAST OF THE CHAIR OF ST. PETER THE APOSTLE

I was passing through a trade fair when I came across a “Christian Cowboy” booth. Sitting on a ledge were a stack of NIV bibles with a snapshot of horses on the cover. I picked one up, then looked at the three men in front of me grinning proudly beneath the brim of their Stetsons.

“Thank you for spreading the Word, brothers,” I said, returning their smiles. “I’m a Catholic evangelist myself.” And with that, their faces dropped, their smiles now forced. The oldest of the three cowboys, a man I venture in his sixties, suddenly blurted out, “Huh. What’s that?”

I knew exactly what I was in for.

“A Catholic evangelist is someone who preaches the Gospel, that Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.”

“Well, then you better stop worshipping Mary…”

And with that, the man launched into a tirade on how the Catholic Church is not the real Church, a mere invention about 1500 years ago; that she is fomenting a “new world order”, and Pope Francis is calling for a “one world religion”… ^[1] I tried to respond to his accusations, but he would always cut me off mid-sentence. After 10 minutes of an uncomfortable exchange, I finally said to him, “Sir, if you think I’m lost, then perhaps you ought to try winning my soul rather than an argument.”

At that, one of the young cowboys piped up. “Can I buy ya a coffee?” And with that, we escaped to the food court.

He was a pleasant fellow—a stark contrast to his haughty colleague. He began to ask me questions on my Catholic faith. Clearly, he had been studying the arguments against Catholicism, but with an open mind. Quickly, Peter became the center of our discussion. ^[2]

He began, “When Jesus said, ‘You are Peter and on this rock I will build my church,’ the Greek manuscript says, ‘You are Petros and on this petra I will build my church.’ Petros means “little stone” as where petra means “big rock.” What Jesus was really saying was “Peter, you are a little stone, but on Me, “the big rock”, I will build my Church.”

“Well, in the Greek,” I replied, “the word for “rock” is indeed petra. But the masculine form of that is petros. So in naming Peter, the masculine form would have been used. It’s grammatically incorrect to use petra when referring to a male. Besides, you are referring to an ancient form of Greek, which was used from the eighth to fourth century B.C., and even then, largely confined to Greek poetry. The language of the New Testament writers was that of Koine Greek where no distinction in definition is made between petros and petra.”

Unlike his senior, the young cowboy listened intently.

“But none of this really matters, and the reason is that Jesus did not speak Greek, but Aramaic. There is no “feminine” or “masculine” word for “rock” in His native tongue. So Jesus would have said, “You are Kepha, and on this kepha I will build my Church.” Even some Protestant scholars agree on this point.

The underlying Aramaic is in this case unquestionable; at most probably kepha was used in both clauses (“you are kepha” and “on this kepha” ), since the word was used both for a name and for a “rock.” —Baptist scholar D. A. Carson; The Expositor’s Bible Commentary, vol. 8, Zondervan, 368

“Still,” the young cowboy protested, “Jesus is the rock. Peter is just a man. If anything, Jesus was just saying that He would build His Church on Peter’s faith.”

I looked him in the eye and smiled. It was so refreshing to meet an Evangelical Christian who was open to debate without the hostility I experienced moments before.

“Well, the first thing I’d note in the text is that Jesus wasn’t just complimenting Peter’s faith. In fact, so significant was the moment that He changed his name! “Blessed are you Simon Bar-Jona!… and I tell you, you are Peter…” ^[3] This hardly suggests that Jesus was belittling him as a “little stone” but, in fact, was raising up his status. This name-change calls to mind another biblical character whom God sets apart from other men: Abraham. The Lord pronounces a blessing on him and changes his name too, based also, notably, on his faith. What is interesting is that the blessing of Abraham comes by way of the high priest Melchizedek. And Jesus, said St. Paul, prefigured and fulfills his role “becoming high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.” ^[4]

[Melchizedek] blessed Abram with these words: “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, the creator of heaven and earth”… No longer will you be called Abram; your name will be Abraham, for I am making you the father of a multitude of nations. (Gen 14:19)

“Did you know,” I asked him, “that the word “pope” comes from the Latin “papa”, which means father?” He nodded. “In the Old Covenant, God set Abraham as the father of a multitude of nations. In the New Covenant, Peter is set as a father over the nations as well, albeit in a new mode. The word “catholic”, in fact, means “universal.” Peter is head of the universal Church.”

“I just don’t see it that way,” he protested. “Jesus is the head of the Church.”

“But Jesus is no longer physically present on earth,” I said (except in the Blessed Sacrament). “Another title for the Pope is “Vicar of Christ”, which simply means His representative. What company doesn’t have a CEO, or an organization a president, or a team a coach? Isn’t it common sense that the Church would also have a visible head?”

“I suppose…”

“Well, it was only to Peter that Jesus said, ‘I will give you the keys of the Kingdom.’ This is pretty significant, no? Jesus then tells Peter that ‘Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.’ In fact, Jesus knew exactly what he was doing when He spoke those words—He was drawing straight from Isaiah 22.”

The cowboy’s eyes narrowed out of curiosity. I grabbed my phone, which has a digital Bible on it, and turned to Isaiah 22.

“Now, before I read this, it’s important to understand that in the Old Testament, it was common for kings in the Near East to place a “prime minister” of sorts over their kingdom. He would be bestowed with the king’s own authority over the territory. In Isaiah, we read precisely this: the servant Eliakim being bestowed with the Davidic king’s authority:

I will clothe him with your robe, gird him with your sash, confer on him your authority. He shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. I will place the key of the House of David on his shoulder; what he opens, no one will shut, what he shuts, no one will open. I will fix him as a peg in a firm place, a seat of honor for his ancestral house. (Isaiah 22:20-23)

As I read the passage, I paused at certain points. “Notice the reference to robes and sashes still worn today?… Notice the “father” reference?… notice the “key”?… notice the “binding and loosing” parallel to “opening and shutting”?… see how his office is “fixed”?”

The cowboy didn’t say much, but I could see his wagon wheels turning.

“The point is this: Jesus created on office, which Peter alone holds. In fact, all the Twelve Apostles hold an office.”

He shifted uncomfortably in his chair, but uncommonly, continued to listen.

“Have you noticed in the description of the City of God in the Book of Revelation that there are twelve foundation stones beneath the city wall?”

The wall of the city had twelve courses of stones as its foundation, on which were inscribed the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. (Rev 21:14)

“How can that be,” I continued, “if Judas betrayed Jesus and then committed suicide? Could Judas be a foundation stone??”

“Hm… no.”

“If you turn to the first chapter of Acts, you see that they elect Matthias to replace Judas. But why? Why, when there are dozens of Christians gathered together, would they feel they needed to replace Judas? Because they were filling an office.”

‘May another take his office.’ (Acts 1:20)

“Here, you see the beginning of “Apostolic succession.” That is why today we have 266 popes. We know most of them by name, including roughly when they reigned. Jesus promised that the “gates of Hades” would not prevail against the Church, and my friend, it has not—despite the fact that we’ve had some pretty awful and corrupt popes at times.”

“Look,” he said, “The bottom line for me is that it’s not men, but the Bible that is the standard for truth.”

“Gee,” I said, “that’s not what the Bible says. Could I have your copy?” He handed me his Cowboy Bible where I turned to 1 Timothy 3:15:

…God’s household […] is the church of the living God, the pillar and foundation of the truth. (1 Tim 3:15, NIV)

“Let me see that,” he said. I handed him his Bible, and continued.

“So it is the Church, not the Bible, that is the “standard” for determining what is true, and what is not. The Bible came from the Church, not the other way around. ^[5] In fact, there was no Bible for the first four centuries of the Church, and even then, it was not readily available until centuries later with the printing press. The point is this: when Jesus commissioned the Apostles, He didn’t hand them a goodie bag with a granola bar, maps, a flashlight, and their own copy of the Bible. He simply said:

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations… teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age. (Matt 28:19-20)

All they had was the memory of what Jesus told them, and more importantly, His promise that the Holy Spirit would “guide them into all truth.” ^[6] Thus, the infallible standard of the truth would be the Apostles themselves, and their successors after them. This is why Jesus said to the Twelve:

Whoever listens to you listens to me. Whoever rejects you rejects me. And whoever rejects me rejects the one who sent me. (Luke 10:16)

“As for Peter, the first Pope, his role would be a visible sign of the Church’s unity and the guarantor of obedience to the truth. For it was to him that Jesus said three times, “Feed my sheep.” ^[7] I can tell you this, no doctrine of the Catholic Church was “invented” at some point over the centuries. Every single teaching of the Church stems from the “deposit of faith” that Jesus left the Apostles. It’s a miracle in itself that the truth has been preserved after 2000 years. And I guess it should be. Because if the ‘truth sets us free’, we better know what the truth is. If it’s a matter of each of us interpreting the Bible, then, well, you have what we do today: tens of thousands of denominations claiming that they have the truth. The Catholic Church is simply proof that Jesus meant what He said. The Spirit has indeed guided her ‘into all truth’. And this is easily proven today. We have this thing called Google.” ^[8]

With that, we stood up and shook hands. “While I disagree with you,” the cowboy said, “I will certainly go home and think about 1 Timothy 3:15 and the church as the pillar of truth. Very interesting…”

“Yes, it is,” I replied. “It’s what the Bible says, doesn’t it?”

Where is the true Church of Rome?

AM+DG

This article makes obvious what should be obvious to all the faithful. God will never let us down. We need to be strong in our faith and use the God-given powers of discernment. There are so many people in pain because they don’t try to understand. The pain is much more bearable when we know that Jesus is with us and with the Truth. A church that twists and changes the Truth that He taught us, is not his Church. We have eyes to see and ears to listen – be attentive! God will show you if you ask !

It reminds us of our Faith -to adore, Love and Hope in Him.

It portrays a true event, with real people, in real time, in a real world.

It shows the tenderness with which Jesus is received.

It embodies all we who await His Second Coming.

This is a picture of people we love, and

we rejoice with pride in sacred images such as this one.

The False Prophet: Another homily

AM+DG

A “false prophet” – twists, and changes the Truth and makes it false.

“In his 4^th May homily False Prophet -(pope) Frances- declared that Christ died for everyone (true) so there’s no need for proselytising and converting people unbelievers (false!)!!!

…. Certainly the Lord’s sacrifice was given out of love for every single soul, but each one still needs to accept his redemption, to BELIEVE in Christ, convert and REPENT!

(It is easy to see how teachings such as this will draw people of all religions, as well as pagans, and heretics.)

This false teaching (confusing justification and redemption) now prepares the way for what Jesus spoke about in the Book of Truth:”

“Many will be shocked at how quickly My Church will seem to embrace the secular world. Many will be enthralled at the way in which different religions, pagans and heretics, will scramble to join this new, one world charitable church. They will say: “At last a church which is tolerant has reached out to all.” Book of Truth: 9 November 2013.

Crusader Chris”

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

Those who believe they will be saved regardless of their free will, are mistaken. It is a dangerous mistake to make because it is not just a gamble on the life of your soul but endangers countless souls. God promised salvation through Jesus alone. Without Him, none can be saved. God desires that all be saved through accepting His Mercy, offered through Jesus because of His Great Love for us. But he cannot and will not take away our free will. Salvation is not a given and we must work out our salvation, no matter who we are, in fear and trembling. ”

Here is another message where we learn just how much Our Father loves us and desires our Salvation- and that of the whole world!

But to be saved requires a response from us.

“My Power exceeds all that is of this world and beyond it” (10^th January 2015)

Remnant Child of Mary”

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

As Jesus said in His prophecy, the False Prophet will change Christ’s Teachings, tamper with them, tone them down, and distort them in a strange way.

“My Teachings never change. They are the same as they have always been. As I said before, it is when you find that they are tampered with, toned down, or as will be the case, distorted in a way that seems strange, or at odds with My Teachings, turn away and pray to Me for guidance.” Book of Truth: March 5th, 2011

For example:

In 2013, shortly after he was elected, this man preached a homily and said that “God created man a little higher than the angels”!!! I couldn’t believe what I just heard. The general reaction was to just ignore it or excuse him – it was a slip of the tongue, etc…

In fact there is a long, long history of these statements. He has been slowly destroying the Church – brick by brick. 9In fact st Francis of Assisi called him the “destroyer”

Here are some more examples

Church teaching re Sacrament of Matrimony changed to allow couples living in sin to receive Holy Communion” Amoris Laetitia
Church teaching re Capital punishment changed in the Catechism.
Teaching re Christ’s Divinity- “True God and True man” : Pope Francis claimed Jesus was just a man during His life in this earth.
Pope Francis claimed that Hell does not exist – that sinful souls are “annihilated”
Mary’s role as Co-Redemptrix, dismissed by pope Francis.
The miracle of the loaves and fishes was just a “sharing” of food.
Pope Francis said that “the pluralism and the diversity of religions” is “willed by God in His wisdom.” This is a lie. In fact, Jesus said “Go and baptize all nations”. PF is setting the scene for the new one-world religion which is to come.
In 2017, Pope Francis said “Catholics are now able to hear Luther’s challenge for the Church of today, recognizing him as a ‘witness to the gospel.’ (* See source below) There was a time when calling a heretic a ‘witness to the Gospel’ also made you a heretic…and in reality it still does, for God still notices what men do and say.
…the Vatican is pushing the joint celebration of the Reformation focusing on the common element of “Jesus Christ and his work of reconciliation as the center of Christian faith.” ( *From 2017 Jan. Week of Prayer for Christian Unity’ – the theme being: Reconciliation: The love of Christ compels us.’)

“Actually, The Eucharist is “the source and summit of the Christian life, not “reconciliation”.

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

What St Paul has to say:

1 Timothy 6: 3-5

“3. Whoever teaches something different and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the religious teaching is conceited, understanding nothing, and has a morbid disposition for arguments and verbal disputes. From these come envy, rivalry, insults, evil suspicions, 5 and mutual friction among people with corrupted minds, who are deprived of the truth, supposing religion to be a means of gain.”

Galatians 1: 8

“But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach [to you] a gospel other than the one that we preached to you, let that one be accursed!”

Comment from Remnant Child of Mary; ” I can’t believe anyone would swallow this lie. It’s so far from what Christ and the Apostles taught.”

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

And finally:

On the 14^th May The False Prophet is holding a ‘global education pact”. This is scary!! What is he planning to re-educate us on and how will he do it? I haven’t heard much about it. Has it been rescheduled?

Last year he spoke of a “new Evangelisation” Sounds like this could be it. Be alert and listen carefully so that you can hear what he is truly saying and doing to the Truth.

Francis the New Age Guru

AM+DG

Many people only know what the mainstream media tells them.

They think that (pope) Francis is a “man of the world” (rather than a man of God) , who knows what the people want. These same people agree with “Climate change” concepts: that it all because of the influence of man on the environment and its ecology; they consider that the world is overpopulated; that the earth can’t support the poor. They do not consider God in this equation at all. The headline of the original article referred to by bOb in his post below was “Pope Issues Disturbing New Age Pronouncements During Earth Day Address”.

This, in itself, tells us that the mainstream media is surprised – the words “disturbing new age pronouncements” and the fact that the ‘pope” issued them.

Sure, we are ‘stewards’ of the environment – God made the world to serve our needs, and we must protect it; but at the same time, God would not allow His people to not have the resources that sustain them. He is a Loving God and He will protect His people and is concerned for their Salvation. He will provide for their needs and sustain the earth and all that He made. He has the last say! Our world is in Apostasy – the denial of God and His power- in fact – in denial of His very existence. Man has become god.

Some of us Catholics, have the grace to discern the actions and words of the man who sits on the Chair of Peter, so all this is not new to us. Others are still blind – blinded by the secular world’s view, blinded by their bishops, many of whom are silent; blinded by the media, even Catholic Media, that only portrays the good things (pope) Francis says, and none of the pages of heresies, blasphemies (in words and actions) that he is guilty of.

He portrays himself as humble, but he is far from it.

We have at our disposal many websites, blogs, etc that keep us informed – but these are usually “Catholic” sites. Sadly, it is mainly the Catholics who are traditional in their thinking that peruse these sites. Many everyday Catholics, are ignorant of these sites and are happy to go along their places of worship, which are led by priests who are afraid to tell the truth (or simply don’t want to know).

So, these media outlets are avoided by many Catholics as well as by other Christians.

But it is possible to discern the reality of what is happening from the words and actions displayed by the (so-called pope) Francis. See example below:

“Ol’ Frankie’s at it again!” – a Christian’s perspective

(An email from our Christian friend (bOb) discussing the above article.)

“The world has becoming a frightening place in the past few months and many people have even speculated that the end of the world is nigh.

And Pope Francis, the leader of the Catholic Church, did not help to assuage those fears when, on Earth Day, he advised the billions of Catholics around the world to ask forgiveness from the earth in a screed that sounded more akin to a New Age movement speech than a Christian one.

“In today’s celebration of Earth Day,” he said on Wednesday, “we are called to renew our sense of sacred respect for the earth, for it is not just our home but also God’s home,” Zenit reported.

For starters, God’s home is heaven. The earth is God’s creation and our (current) home. But that is the least of the issues Francis’ speech.

“Because of our selfishness we have failed in our responsibility to be guardians and stewards of the earth,” he said.

“We have polluted and we have despoiled it, endangering our very lives. For this reason, various international and local movements have sprung up in order to appeal to our consciences.

“I deeply appreciate these initiatives; still it will be necessary for our children to take to the streets to teach us the obvious: we have no future if we destroy the very environment that sustains us,” Francis said.

Being good stewards of the earth that God gave us is a noble cause, even if the pope is advising children to “take to the streets” to teach us the error of our ways.

“We have failed to care for the earth, our garden home; we have failed to care for our brothers and sisters,” he continued.

“We have sinned against the earth, against our neighbours, and ultimately against the Creator, the benevolent Father who provides for everyone, and desires us to live in communion and flourish together.

“And how does the earth react? There is a Spanish saying that is very clear,” he went on. “It says: ‘God forgives always; we men forgive sometimes; the earth never forgives.’ The earth never forgives: If we have despoiled the earth, the response will be very bad.”

What is this, Buddhism?

This is where the pope went off the deep end. The earth is not conscious and it does not and cannot forgive.

The earth is a rock floating through space — an inanimate rock that has on it everything we need to sustain human life.

But one cannot “sin” against a rock. And one cannot ask for forgiveness or be granted forgiveness from a rock.”

The earth and its bounty were provided to us by God Almighty and he is whom we should both thank and ask for forgiveness of when we sin.

This pope, as he often does, used his speech to make a political statement that aligns with the leftists of the world.

“At the same time, we need an ecological conversion that can find expression in concrete actions. As a single and interdependent family, we require a common plan in order to avert the threats to our common home,” he said.

“I would like to support concerted action also on the national and local levels. It will help if people at all levels of society come together to create a popular movement ‘from below.’

“The Earth Day we are celebrating today was itself born in precisely this way. We can each contribute in our own small way,” he said.

Yes, as Christians, we should take care of the many gifts God has given us, including the earth, but that does not mean we have to go on a radical leftist agenda to do it.

It has been many years since the pope was widely considered a political figure, and he should not be dipping his toe into that arena again.

_____________________________________

Are all Catholics being misled?

I know that bOb worries about us because we are “Catholic” and that we have this imposter pope leading us. Not all Catholics are blind. In fact many of our “good shepherds” are fearful. Archbishop Fulton Sheen, decades ago, prophesied that it was the laity who would save the Church. And indeed, we have many websites and blogs and a few courageous bishops doing this.

I know many Christians, who are not Catholics think we are doomed. So I like to remind bOb that some of us are aware, and we know far more than the mainstream media allows us to know. After all, we have “inside knowledge”. But True Christians (and true popes) follow Christ and his teachings, not the pronouncements of a man who wants to be applauded by the world.

So this is what I replied to bOb:

“He’s as pagan as they come. You can’t sin against the earth. We have heard it all before. He has been railing against God for the last 7 years, His plan was to destroy any links with God. He’s cunning and part of this evil plot. He is the False Prophet of Revelation. He is mates with the Antichrist. This hasn’t come out into the fore yet, but it will. He is helping him with the infrastructure of the one world religion. He has dismantled so much of Christianity and God’s laws but people don’t notice because they think he is ‘a man of the times’ .

But it’s a test for us. We have to stay true to God’s teachings. God will win in the end. The mainstream Media hasn’t published any of his hundreds of anti-God statements. “

General Comment by Editor of this site:

The original article (“Pope Issues Disturbing New Age Pronouncements During Earth Day Address”) shows that the image of (pope) Francis has been carefully manipulated by the mainstream Media. In fact, he has never ceased being a political figure. Even his encyclicals are part of his “political” agenda – e.g. Laudato Si – a very clever way to, years later, have the Amazon Synod with all its pagan displays.

In recent years, he signed the 28 Sustainable goals of the U.N; he signed the Abu Dhabi agreement; he signed off on the underground Church in China, and supports the official, communist directed church.

Thank heaven that his true colours are beginning to show forth!

All Christians must unite against the evil that is pervading society, by a man who is undoubtedly part of it all!

Archbishop tells it like it is: an interview with Abp. Vigano

AM+DG

Abp. Vigano speaks about what has been largely unsaid

In this interview, Abp. Vigano says everything that has not been said so far – the Third Secret of Fatima being unfulfilled, twisting the words of the Gospel, indirect references to Vatican II (the sixties, heresies, Freemasonry plans for the Church, further attacks on the priesthood as upheld by the True Catholic Church, the advent of the AntiChrist and doctrinal error.

We needed a bishop to say these things. Priests do not want to listen, either out of fear, or just plain blindness, unless it comes from someone higher up first. If priests don’t acknowledge these things, then the faithful will stay blind to all the deceptions that are to come.

Tony M. says:

“With what clarity does Archbishop Vigano’s mind work, and with what courage does he convey his thoughts to the Church and the world.

After reading these points he has made in his most recent interview it is clear why he must remain in hiding.

… Find below in point form some of the statements he put forward in his latest interview .”

Major assertions of Archbishop Vigano in Point Form

By Tony M.

(Tony M comments in red) (Comments by Editor )

In a stunning new interview, Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò, the former papal nuncio in Washington, D.C. and the prelate who accused Pope Francis of covering up the crimes of Theodore McCarrick, has now publicly stated that he does not believe that the Vatican up to today has published the full Third Secret of Fatima. This report has already found interest in Italy, by outlets such as Corrispondenza Romana and Stilum Curiae.

According to the archbishop, until a “few decades ago,” people would not have believed that we could even dare to “gag” the Blessed Mother, “but in recent years we have also seen attempts to censor the Gospel itself, which is the Word of His divine Son.”

The Italian prelate states that the Vatican, when officially presenting the Third Secret to the public in 2000, presented an “incomplete” version.

Viganò’ states the following: “Benedict XVI himself confirmed the timeliness of the Virgin’s message, although – according to the interpretation spread by the Vatican – it must be considered fulfilled. Those who read the Third Secret clearly said that its content concerns the apostasy of the Church, which began precisely in the early sixties and that today it has reached a stage so evident that it can be recognized by secular observers. This almost obsessive insistence on issues that the Church has always condemned, such as relativism and religious indifference, false ecumenism, Malthusian ecologism, homoeresis [homo-heresy] and immigration, found in the Abu Dhabi Declaration the fulfillment of a plan devised by the secret sects since more than two centuries ago.”

Archbishop Viganò speaks of a “new church” that has been developed in the recent decades, a church that is “simply not the Church of Christ!”
He adds that “the post-conciliar, Modernist and Masonic church also aspires to transform, to overcome the Church of Christ, replacing it with a ‘neo-Church’, a deformed and monstrous creature that does not come from God.”

“The aim of this neo-Church,” Viganò continues, “is not to lead the chosen people to recognize the Messiah, as [with] the Synagogue; it is not to convert and save all peoples before the second coming of Christ, as for the Catholic Church, but to constitute themselves as a spiritual arm of the New World Order and defender of Universal Religion.”

It is in this sense that, according to this Italian archbishop, “the conciliar revolution had to first demolish the Church’s legacy, its millenary Tradition, from which it extracted its own vitality and authority as the Mystical Body of Christ, to later get rid of the exponents of the ancient Hierarchy, and only recently began to propose (Freemasonry has indeed demolished almost everything from the past. Francis has also replaced most traditional /orthodox bishops from their positions and replaced them with his own)

Speaking further about the Freemasonic plan to weaken and undermine the Catholic Church from within, Archbishop Viganò says that many bishops might not even be aware of these dangerous developments. (Ain’t that the truth!!! But many, many bishops are aware & are fully supporting them….it would seem an overwhelming majority!!!)

He states: “What you call utopia is actually a dystopia, because it represents the realization of Freemasonry’s plan and the preparation of the advent of Antichrist. I am also convinced that the majority of my Brothers, and even more so, almost all priests and the faithful, are not aware of this hellish plan at all, and that recent events have opened the eyes of many.”

Viganò warns of attacks on the priesthood like the introduction of deaconesses, abolishing celibacy, and blurring the difference between the ministerial and the baptismal priesthood…..His guess: Francis will not officially allow female deacons but tolerate them quietly if German or Dutch dioceses go ahead. He stresses that Communion in the hand was introduced this way. After that, “Conservatives” could claim that “the Pope hasn’t allowed anything new.” (This is Francis’ way: He does not affirm or deny anything that might put him in position where he may be challenged. E.g. Hell, Christ’s divinity, dubia…)

For Viganò the Council’s Lumen Gentium committed a “doctrinal error” by turning priests into “presiders” of assemblies. He suggests treating the Council like the Pistoia Synod which contained errors and was therefore buried in oblivion. (to be absolutely clear ….Archbishop Vigano is suggesting burying the Second Vatican Council into oblivion. Given the loss of both belief & practice of the faith by Catholics since Vatican II it is difficult not to agree with him.)

Excerpts from Bp. Schneider’s interview with Portuguese newspaper ‘Dies Iriae’:

On Fatima:

“The third part of the message, which Our Lady entrusted to the shepherd children of Fatima so that they may deliver it to the Holy Father, is still secret. Our Lady asked for it to be revealed in 1960, but John XXIII issued a press release on 8 February of that year declaring that the Church “does not want to assume the responsibility of guaranteeing the truthfulness of the words which the shepherd children say the Virgin Mary addressed to them.” With this distancing from the message of the Queen of Heaven, a cover-up operation began, apparently because the content of the message would have revealed the terrible conspiracy against the Church of Christ by its enemies. Until a few decades ago, it would have seemed unthinkable that one would go so far as to silence even Our Lady. In recent years, however, we have even experienced attempts to censor the Gospel, the word of her divine Son.

In 2000, during the pontificate of John Paul II, the Secretary of State, Cardinal Sodano [1990–2006], presented his own version as the Third Secret, which, due to some elements, clearly seemed incomplete. It is not surprising that the new Secretary of State, Cardinal Bertone [2006–2013], tried to draw attention to an event from the past, only to make the people of God believe that the words of the Virgin had nothing to do with the Church crisis and with the interaction of modernists and Freemasonry behind the scenes of the Second Vatican Council. Antonio Socci, who has carefully examined the Third Secret, exposed this deliberate behaviour of Cardinal Bertone. At the same time, it was Bertone himself who strongly discredited and censored the tears of Tears of Our Lady of Civitavecchia, whose message perfectly matches what she had said in Fatima.

Let us not forget the unnoticed appeal of Our Lady to the Pope encouraging all bishops to consecrate Russia to her Immaculate Heart in order to defeat Communism and atheist materialism: not to consecrate “the world, not that nation that you want us to consecrate to you “, but “Russia”. Did it cost too much to do that?

Obviously yes for those who have no view of the supernatural. One preferred the path of détente with the Soviet regime that Roncalli had taken, without understanding that peace is not possible without God.

Today, with a President of the Russian Federation who is certainly a Christian, this request of the Virgin could be fulfilled in order to avert further catastrophes for the Church and the world.”

On Catholics feeling isolated from the Church and abandoned by their shepherds:

Archbishop Vigano: “My words would certainly be inadequate. I confine myself to repeating the words of our Lord, the eternal word of the Father: “Be sure, I am with you all the days until the end of the world.” Of course, we feel isolated: but did the Apostles not feel that way, and all Christians? Didn’t even Our Lord feel abandoned in Gethsemane? These are times of trial, perhaps of the last trial: we must drink the bitter cup, and even if it is human emanating from the Lord to let him pass by us, we must repeat with confidence: “But not as I will, but as you will” and remember His words of consolation: “In the world you are in affliction; but have courage: I have conquered the world.”

After trial, however hard and painful it may be, the eternal reward will be prepared for us that no one can take away from us. The Church will once again radiate the glory of her Lord after this terrible and long-lasting Easter triduum.

Although prayer is undoubtedly indispensable, we must not relent on fighting the good struggle, but should make everyone witnesses of a courageous spirit of struggle under the banner of the Cross of Christ. Let us not allow the finger to be pointed at us, as the maid did in the court of the high priest with Saint Peter: “You also were one of his disciples,” and then he denied Christ. Let us not be intimidated! Let us not allow the gag of tolerance to be applied to those who wish to proclaim the truth! Let us ask the Blessed Virgin and Our Lady Mary that our tongue can courageously proclaim the kingdom of God and His righteousness. May the miracle of Lapa be renewed, where the blessed Mary gave back the voice to little Joana, who was born dumb. May she also give us a voice, her children, who have remained silent for too long.”

Our Lady of Fatima, Queen of Victories, ora pro nobis.

THEY ARE TRYING TO ESTABLISH A ‘NEO-CHURCH’

The words from his mouth condemn him – yet again!!!

AM+DG

The following article is from Tony (a regular contributor here)

“Yes, Bergoglio said it again!!!! It is outrageous!!!!

“Jesus made himself sin”.

He has said this before….. in April, 2017 and published in L’Osservatore Romano.

This is not “foot in mouth”…… it is very calculated and deliberate.

With such a litany of blasphemies and heresies since he took the Chair of Peter, how negligently naïve it would be to say or even think ……..’he did not mean it and did not understand what he was saying’

The purpose of this article is not to attack……but to simply defend Jesus.

That statement is Blasphemy!!! Blasphemy!!! Blasphemy!!!

How could it be that Jesus, Who is God, therefore sinless, perfect, all powerful, all loving, all knowing……how could it be that He became sin??????????????

Bergoglio…..to give credence to his blasphemy…. quoted 1 Peter 2:24 ‘He bore all of our sins in Himself.’

This is another example of Bergoglio twisting and bending God’s Word to validate his blasphemies and heresies.

There is a world of difference between saying ‘Jesus bore our sins’ and ‘Jesus became sin’ and Jorge knows that. He is actually not stupid…….but he thinks he can trick us…..and he does trick some!!

Twisting God’s Word is of itself….. evil.

I cannot be silent about this blasphemy …..coming from anyone….but most particularly coming from the ‘Chair of Peter’ to scandalise the faithful all over the planet.

We have a right and a duty to defend Jesus from blasphemies hurled against him from anyone and everyone……no matter how important and authoritative the blasphemer may think he is.

(see article below by Antonio Socci, “Bergoglio Arrives to State in the Church that “Jesus Has been Deviled” . And Everyone is Pretending Nothing”)

We cannot pretend that these blasphemies are nothing, of no consequence and causing no scandal.

Remember Jorge….you are not God!!! Oh and by the way….. you have even admitted yourself recently….you are not the Vicar of Christ…..as it is only an historical term.

If you had already seen this latest blasphemy ….what did you immediately think???

This is outrageous!!!

This must be called out and opposed!!!

We cannot tolerate this!!!

We must stand up against this!!!

But, but, but…. he is the Pope……

.We cannot speak badly about the Pope. ….

… If I speak out against Francis I will lose my good name and influence……

… I had better say nothing.

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

Nothing he says surprises us any more …….. but let’s not get boiled like the frog in the pot of heating water!!!

Bergoglio vilifies himself by what he says and does. The orthodox Catholic commentators who write on his words and actions are simply repeating and highlighting what he himself has put out to the world.

I would say this brings sharply into focus the question, “How is it that a valid Pope could possibly say this?”

What other Pope in the history of the Church ever uttered this blasphemy???

Answer: None…… Not a single one……. NONE!!!

Jesus said, “Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.” Matthew 12:30

And boy…… has there been an unprecedented level of scattering occurring since March 13, 2013.

And Finally:

Our Lady said to Fr Gobbi in Milan on June 3, 1989, “….the aim of Masonry is not to deny God, but to blaspheme Him” …..(See the Blue Book)

Please…. draw your own conclusions!!!”

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

As Tony mentions above, this is not the first time he has said this He said it in 2017. You can read Socci’s article here: antoniosocci.com / bergoglio-comes-to-affirm-church-jesus-yes-devil-everyone-pretends-nothing-his-strategy

In this article of April 6, 2017, Socci writes:

” In the Church many people have their hands in their hair, because things never seen before are happening. There have been popes of all kinds in two thousand years, but there has never been a pope who in the church, in the homily of the Mass, uttered phrases that – in the mouth of anyone else – would be considered blasphemies .

The day before yesterday, for example, Pope Bergoglio , in Santa Marta, came out with an expression that must have chilled the listeners (even if no one has the courage to say anything).

Commenting – in a totally absurd way – the biblical passage of the serpent raised by Moses in the desert (Numbers 21, 4-9), he affirmed that Jesus “made himself sin, he made himself devil, snake, for us” .

Textual. But how can we say that Jesus “became devil”? By Christian doctrine, Jesus took upon himself the sins of all, paying for all as a spotless sacrificial lamb, so that St. Paul writes: ” He who had not known sin, God treated him as a sin in our favor, because we could become through him justice of God “ (2Cor 5,21).

But to say that Jesus “made himself devil” is another matter (with a Gnostic flavor). The Son of God became man to redeem men, he did not make himself a devil to redeem the devils, who, I remember, are totally characterized by the unquenchable hatred of God (it is unimaginable for a Pope to say such a thing of Jesus ). … “

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

(Remnant Survivor continues:)

As with other heresies and blasphemies ( such as “there is no hell”) it is repeated. The idea is that if it is repeated often enough we will come to accept it. And the sad part is, many will. Tony states that “This is another example of Bergoglio twisting and bending God’s Word to validate his blasphemies and heresies.”

We know he does this often – twists Scripture to suit his own agenda. Jesus tells us in the Book of Truth that the Masons are the ones responsible for twisting the Truth of Christ’s teachings. He calls Bergoglio the “false prophet” who works in league with the Antichrist

“… Pope Benedict XVI is being plotted against, within his own corridors, by an evil sect. This sect is known to exist among those sacred servants within the Vatican, yet they are powerless against this evil group, which has infiltrated the Catholic Church for centuries.

They are responsible for twisting the Truth of my Son’s Teachings. So little is known about them or their vile works.

They have driven the True Doctrine from the Catholic Church and, in its place a lukewarm, watered down version has been force-fed to Catholics over the last forty years.

So much confusion has been spread by this wicked, but, hidden sect, that my children have wandered away from the True Church.

Pray that they do not drive the pope away.

Pray that the false prophet will not take the Seat of the Holy Father so that he can spread lies.

Pray that those sacred servants in the Vatican are strong enough to withstand this evil plot, designed to destroy the Catholic Church.

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.…” (Message 0311: 18 January 2012 @ 9:50am)

Jesus also tells us:

“… Who gave you the authority to misinterpret My Word given to My apostles?Why are you twisting them and why do you not believe what I said? My Word is very clear. When I speak, I mean what I say. If I say one thing, I do not mean another....” (Message 0949: 2013.10.26 11:15)

Jesus talks of the pressure on priests of these lies:

“…You must pray hard at this time – all of you – for these holy servants of Mine are under attack because of Me. I stand with them, but many will fall and crumble under the pressure to remain silent when they are forced to present to their flock the doctrine of lies to come.…” (Message 0906: 10 September 2013 @ 11:45pm)

and also

“…I urge you to pray for those who have eyesight, but who are blind to My Most Holy Word. Pray for those who persist in twisting My Teachings…” (Message 0171: 22 August 2011 @ 8:10pm)

It’s Time to Stand up for His Holiness, Pope Benedict XVI

AM+DG

Finally, after all this time – years of suffering and seeing the Church being torn apart – we can see a light. We were always thankful that (just) a few bishops seemed to try and stand up for Truth – but talking about it, and signing petitions wasn’t enough. Cardinal Burke, Bp. Schneider, Cardinals Muller and Brandmuller, also Cardinals Caffara and Meisner (the latter 2 who may have died of a broken heart), Cardinal Sarah, and last, but not least, Archbishop Vigano, who I must say seems to have had the most courage.

We are immensely thankful for Bro. Alexis Bugnolo who acted and decided to investigate Pope Benedict’s resignation. At first, after Bergoglio was elected to the throne of Peter, there were a few assertions made- the “Grammar mistake“, the fact that on the day of the election there was one too many voting elections ( contrary to Canon Law, it was said); the St Gallen Mafia plotting for years beforehand (and Cardinal Danneels finally admitting it in a book), secret meetings in Rome for purposes of vote canvassing, suggestions of being forced to resign, and even blackmail, but they never came to anything. No-one really seemed to care, or was afraid to challenge the election.

As a result of Bro. Bugnolo’s relentless investigation, he came up with lots of evidence written and applied to Canon Law. And now we have 2 Bishops who have spoken up for Pope Benedict – Bp. Gracida and Bp. Lenga. Bro. Bugnolo tells us that there are at least 4 priests naming Pope Benedict in the Canon of the Mass.

There are hundreds of Jesus to Mankind prayer groups around the world -and that means supporting Pope Benedict as the true pope. So thousands of people when attending Mass, have been saying his name in the Canon from the beginning. (That is, since Nov. 2010 in our case, but depending on when people joined) All of the thousands of members of our prayer groups would be also praying for the intentions of Pope Benedict after every Rosary.

Locally, I know of one priest who has said (privately) that all the pieces of the jigsaw are finally coming together. He said that he never really believed that Pope Benedict resigned.

There are most probably hundreds of good priests who are secret supporters of Pope Benedict. But they lack courage, and they are in fear – fear of their Bishop, and fear of what other priests might think.

I was so overjoyed to read the” From Rome” post.

“Feb. 28, 2020: A group of Catholics, today, has issued a call to convene an international investigation into Vatican Corruption by all the Bishops of the Catholic Church “on account of the manifest grave disorder in the organs of the Apostolic See. … The Press Release invites both legal scholars and Catholic Bishops to participate. All interested parties are to contact the chairman of the committee.

Read all about it here: https://fromrome.info/2020/02/27/breaking-call-for-international-inquest-into-vatican-corruption/

I hope many, many people sign up, but I know that there are still bishops and priests who are sceptical or just plain “blind”. This is our job now – to share our information. Hand out copies of articles to other parishioners and to priests. They need to know the truth. We need to build up an ARMY of resistance and Action. Remember, Ven. Abp. Fulton Sheen spoke about the important role of the laity.

Priests may fear for their “priestly ministry”, but we have no excuse. We can change parishes and “go shopping” and they cannot deny us the Sacraments.

+++++

My friend Tony, sent me this reflection yesterday, Feb. 27th at 11.20am Sydney time. He says it all very well.

Hi Everyone,

Surely the idea or possibility of an uncanonically elected Pope……following a Pope pressured to resign by the St Gallen Mafia Club…. led by the infamous heretic Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini….is a more plausible explanation of a manifest, serial heretic, blasphemer and Vatican Garden idol worshipper…… being on the Chair of Peter….. than the idea that a validly elected Pope could operate like that.

Anyone who believes that a valid Pope can behave as Bergoglio has done for almost 7 years now, has a greatly diminished (flawed) understanding of the very essence of what a Pope is.

It has always been my (Traditional Catholic) understanding that a Pope is the ‘Rock’…..the defender….teacher….and custodian…. of the True Faith…..protected by God Himself from reeling off a never ending stream of heresies, blasphemies to the Catholic faithful all over the planet.

Bergoglio is definitely not the ‘Rock’.

And if anyone reading this cannot see that…..you are not looking…..and need to ask yourself why am I avoiding looking too closely at what he is saying and doing???

I know many, many pre-Bergoglio traditional Catholics (now Bergoglio Liberals) who avoid like the plague ….all the available information on Bergoglio’s performance.

Therefore the need for a full and comprehensive investigation on how this parlous state of affairs came about is screamingly obvious.

Why not check out all possible ways this may have come about???

Why are so many so resistant to investigating all possibilities???

Was he a heretic before he was supposedly elected??? There is strong evidence for the affirmative.

Was there pressure on Benedict (still alive and healthy in mind and body) to resign….. when on an historical basis Popes simply don’t resign….they stay until they drop….look at the example Pope John Paul II gave….. Was Canon332:2 breached??? There is a strong case for that!!!

Was the canvassing for votes at the 2013 (supposed) conclave actually done by a number of Cardinals??? There is a strong case for that also!!! Both Cardinal Daneels & Cardinal Cormac Murphy O’Connor’s former Director for Public Affairs, Austin Ivereigh have said this indeed happened!!!

Now that it has become clear that Jorge Mario Bergoglio….compared to the Popes of history is dysfunctional in the extreme….behaving like the worst of all the antipopes…..WHY NOT CHECK IT ALL OUT???

COME ON ….WHY NOT???

Reason No 1. Many of the Hierarchy are themselves heretics and with Bergoglio all the way.

Reason No 2. Many of those hierarchy who see clearly the errors of Bergoglio do not have the will to take this on……the (worldly) consequences would be great!!!

Then we of course have the brave ones….Bishop Gracida….Archbishop Lenga….Archbishop Vigano…..and others…..but not many…..because our Church has been thoroughly liberalised (hereticised ) over the last 50 years since Vatican II.

God bless,

Tony

Pope Benedict Vs. Francis: Part 17 (final)

AM+DG

The English Denzinger site (which was run by (20) priests, and which (strangely??) has not been active for a few years, was invaluable and priceless in terms of comparing everything Francis claimed to what authentic Church Teaching says.

The following is an example of one article I had saved. It is very long, so I will post just a few bits every day. The following continues from yesterday’s post.

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

Benedict XVI…

…judges Francis’ idea that the Church should not be a Point of Reference

The Church is always enlightened by the presence of Christ

And since the glory of God is Love, the heavenly Jerusalem is the icon of the Church, utterly holy and glorious, without spot or wrinkle (cf. Eph 5:27), permeated at her heart and in every part of her by the presence of the God who is Love. She is called a ‘bride’, ‘the bride of the Lamb’ (Rev 20:9), […] The City and Bride is the locus of God’s full communion with humanity; She has no need of a temple or of any external source of light, because the indwelling presence of God and of the Lamb illuminates her from within. (Benedict XVI. Holy Mass for the inauguration of the Fifth General Conference of the Bishops of Latin America and the Caribbean, May 13, 2007)

…judges Francis’ idea on the Re-reading of the Gospel

The great risk involved in reading the Gospel without the light of faith

Another major theme that emerged during the Synod, to which I would now like to draw attention, is the interpretation of sacred Scripture in the Church. The intrinsic link between the word and faith makes clear that authentic biblical hermeneutics can only be had within the faith of the Church, which has its paradigm in Mary’s fiat. Saint Bonaventure states that without faith there is no key to throw open the sacred text: ‘This is the knowledge of Jesus Christ, from whom, as from a fountain, flow forth the certainty and the understanding of all sacred Scripture. Therefore it is impossible for anyone to attain to knowledge of that truth unless he first have infused faith in Christ, which is the lamp, the gate and the foundation of all Scripture’ (Breviloquium, Prol.). And Saint Thomas Aquinas, citing Saint Augustine, insists that ‘the letter, even that of the Gospel, would kill, were there not the inward grace of healing faith’ (STh, I-II, q.106, a.2). (Benedict XVI, Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini, no. 29, September 30, 2010)

Scripture sheds light on human existence

The word of God sheds light on human existence and stirs our conscience to take a deeper look at our lives, inasmuch as all human history stands under God’s judgment. (Benedict XVI, Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini, no. 99, September 30, 2010)

The Word of God should be an inspiration for temporal authorities

In the light of the Lord’s words, let us discern the ‘signs of the times’ present in history, and not flee from a commitment to those who suffer and the victims of forms of selfishness. The Synod recalled that a commitment to justice and to changing our world is an essential element of evangelization.[…] For this reason, the Synod Fathers wished to say a special word to all those who take part in political and social life. Evangelization and the spread of God’s word ought to inspire their activity in the world, as they work for the true common good in respecting and promoting the dignity of every person. (Benedict XVI, Post-Synodal Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini, no. 100, September 30, 2010)

…judges Francis’ idea on happiness

Jesus is the happiness we seek

Dear young people, the happiness you are seeking, the happiness you have a right to enjoy has a name and a face: it is Jesus of Nazareth, hidden in the Eucharist. Only he gives the fullness of life to humanity! […] I repeat today what I said at the beginning of my Pontificate: ‘If we let Christ into our lives, we lose nothing, nothing, absolutely nothing of what makes life free, beautiful and great. No! Only in this friendship are the doors of life opened wide. Only in this friendship is the great potential of human existence truly revealed. Only in this friendship do we experience beauty and liberation’ (Homily at the Mass of Inauguration, 24 April, 2005). Be completely convinced of this: Christ takes from you nothing that is beautiful and great, but brings everything to perfection for the glory of God, the happiness of men and women, and the salvation of the world. (Benedict XVI. Address on the Celebration of welcoming the young people on the occasion of the XX World Youth Day, August 18, 2005)

The example of Saint Francis: only the Infinite can fill the human heart

‘Francis was always happy and generous, dedicated to play and song, roaming through the town of Assisi day and night with friends like him, spend-thrifts, dissipating all that they could have or earn on lunches and other things’ (3 LTC 1, 2). Of how many of today’s youth could something similar be said? […] In that way of living there was the desire for happiness that dwells in every human heart. But could that life bring true joy? Francis certainly did not find it. You yourselves, dear young people, can verify this beginning with your experience. The truth is that finite things can give only a faint idea of joy, but only the Infinite can fill the heart. (Benedict XVI, Speech, Meeting with Youth in Assisi, June 17, 2007)

Bishops have the duty to point out the world’s inability to bring true joy

Like the wise householder who brings forth from his treasure ‘what is new and what is old’(Mt 13:52), your people need to view the changes in society with discernment, and here they look to you for leadership. Help them to recognize the inability of the secular, materialist culture to bring true satisfaction and joy. Be bold in speaking to them of the joy that comes from following Christ and living according to his commandments. Remind them that our hearts were made for the Lord and that they find no peace until they rest in him (cf. St. Augustine, Confessions, 1:1). (Benedict XVI, Address to the Bishops of Ireland on their Ad Limina Visit, 28 October, 2006)

The secret of happiness consists in putting God in first place

God loves us: this is the source of true joy. Even if one has all he or she wants, one can sometimes be unhappy; on the other hand, one can be deprived of everything, even freedom or health, and be in peace and joy if God is in his or her heart. Thus, the secret is this: God must always have first place in our life. (Benedict XVI. Speech on the visit to Rome’s prison for minors Casal del Marmo, March 18, 2007)

The Eucharist is the source of Christian joy

Where is the source of Christian joy to be found if not in the Eucharist, which Christ left us as spiritual Food while we are pilgrims on this earth? The Eucharist nurtures in believers of every epoch that deep joy which makes us one with love and peace and originates from communion with God and with our brothers and sisters. (Benedict XVI. Angelus, March 18, 2007)

True joy comes from Christ’s Cross

True joy is something different from pleasure; joy grows and continues to mature in suffering, in communion with the Cross of Christ. It is here alone that the true joy of faith is born. (Benedict XVI. Address to the priests of the Diocese of Aosta, 25, July 2005)

Observing the Commandments is the path to happiness

God wants us to be happy. That is why he gave us specific directions for the journey of life: the commandments. If we observe them, we will find the path to life and happiness. At first glance, they might seem to be a list of prohibitions and an obstacle to our freedom. But if we study them more closely, we see in the light of Christ’s message that the commandments are a set of essential and valuable rules leading to a happy life in accordance with God’s plan. (Benedict XVI. Message for the Twenty-Seventh World Youth Day, no. 5, March 15, 2012)

Blessed are they who obey the word of God

This close relationship between God’s word and joy is evident in the Mother of God. Let us recall the words of Saint Elizabeth: ‘Blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her by the Lord’ (Lk 1:45). Mary is blessed because she has faith, because she believed, and in this faith she received the Word of God into her womb in order to give him to the world. The joy born of the Word can now expand to all those who, by faith, let themselves be changed by God’s word. The Gospel of Luke presents this mystery of hearing and joy in two texts. Jesus says: ‘My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do it’ (Lk 8:21). And in reply to a woman from the crowd who blesses the womb that bore him and the breasts that nursed him, Jesus reveals the secret of true joy: ‘Blessed rather are those who hear the word of God and obey it!’ (Lk 11:28). (Benedict XVI. Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini, no. 124, September 30, 2010)

…judges Francis’ idea on Ascetism and silence in the Spiritual Exercises

It is necessary to educate the faithful in the value of silence and recollection

Ours is not an age which fosters recollection; at times one has the impression that people are afraid of detaching themselves, even for a moment, from the mass media. For this reason, it is necessary nowadays that the People of God be educated in the value of silence. Rediscovering the centrality of God’s word in the life of the Church also means rediscovering a sense of recollection and inner repose. (Benedict XVI, Apostolic Exhortation Verbum Domini, no. 66, September 30, 2010)

…judges Francis’ idea of fraternal love

Fraternal correction heals wounds

The Gospel text […] tells us that brotherly love also involves a sense of mutual responsibility. For this reason if my brother commits a sin against me I must treat him charitably and first of all, speak to him privately, pointing out that what he has said or done is wrong. This approach is known as ‘fraternal correction’: it is not a reaction to the offence suffered but is motivated by love for one’s brethren. St Augustine comments: ‘Whoever has offended you, in offending you, has inflicted a serious injury upon himself; and would you not care for a brother’s injury?… You must forget the offence you have received but not the injury of one of your brethren’ (Discourse 82, 7). And what if my brother does not listen to me? In today’s Gospel Jesus points to a gradual approach: first, speak to him again with two or three others, the better to help him realize what he has done; if, in spite of this, he still refuses to listen, it is necessary to tell the community; and if he refuses to listen even to the community, he must be made to perceive that he has cut himself off by separating himself from the communion of the Church. All this demonstrates that we are responsible for each other in the journey of Christian life; each person, aware of his own limitations and shortcomings, is called to accept fraternal correction and to help others with this specific service. (Benedict XVI. Angelus, September 4, 2011)

When faced with evil we should not keep silence, since correction is a work of mercy

The Scriptures tell us: ‘Rebuke the wise and he will love you for it. Be open with the wise, he grows wiser still, teach the upright, he will gain yet more’ (Prov 9:8). Christ himself commands us to admonish a brother who is committing a sin (cf. Mt 18:15). The Church’s tradition has included ‘admonishing sinners’ among the spiritual works of mercy. It is important to recover this dimension of Christian charity. We must not remain silent before evil. I am thinking of all those Christians who, out of human regard or purely personal convenience, adapt to the prevailing mentality, rather than warning their brothers and sisters against ways of thinking and acting that are contrary to the truth and that do not follow the path of goodness. Christian admonishment, for its part, is never motivated by a spirit of accusation or recrimination. It is always moved by love and mercy, and springs from genuine concern for the good of the other. As the Apostle Paul says: ‘If one of you is caught doing something wrong, those of you who are spiritual should set that person right in a spirit of gentleness; and watch yourselves that you are not put to the test in the same way’ (Gal 6:1).
In a world pervaded by individualism, it is essential to rediscover the importance of fraternal correction, so that together we may journey towards holiness. […] Apostle Paul encourages us to seek ‘the ways which lead to peace and the ways in which we can support one another’ (Rom 14:19) for our neighbour’s good, ‘so that we support one another’ (Rom 15:2), seeking not personal gain but rather ‘the advantage of everybody else, so that they may be saved’ (1 Cor 10:33). This mutual correction and encouragement in a spirit of humility and charity must be part of the life of the Christian community. (Benedict XVI, Message for Lent 2012, November 3, 2011)

God grants pardon so that in future one ceases to sin

St Augustine in his Commentary observed: ‘The Lord did also condemn, but condemned sins, not man. For if he were a patron of sin, he would say, ‘neither will I condemn you; go, live as you will; be secure in my deliverance; however much you sin, I will deliver you from all punishment’. He said not this (Io Ev. tract. 33, 6). […] Therefore, we understand that our real enemy is attachment to sin, which can lead us to failure in our lives. Jesus sent the adulterous woman away with this recommendation: ‘Go, and do not sin again’. He forgives her so that ‘from now on’ she will sin no more. (Benedict XVI. Visit to the Roman Parish of Saint Felicity and her Children, Martyrs, March 25, 2007)

Habits linked to sin do not create a new world

Saint Luke remarks first of all that the people ‘were in expectation’ (Lk 3: 15). In this way he emphasizes the expectation of Israel and, in those people who had left their homes and their usual tasks, the profound desire for a different world and new words that seem to find an answer precisely in the Precursor’s words that may be severe and demanding and yet are full of hope. The baptism John offers is one of repentance, a sign that is an invitation to conversion, to a change of life, because One is coming who will ‘baptize with the Holy Spirit and with fire’ (Lk 3:16). Indeed it is impossible to aspire to a new world while remaining immersed in selfishness and habits linked to sin. (Benedict XVI. Homily on the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord, January 10, 2010)

…judges Francis’ idea of the Roman Curia

Valuable contribution to the Petrine Ministry

Our community, as you emphasized, Your Eminence, is truly a “working community”, bound by bonds of fraternal love which the Christmas festivities help to reinforce. In this spirit, you did not omit an appropriate mention of the former members of our Curial family who crossed the threshold of time in recent months and have entered into God’s peace. On such an occasion it does our hearts good to feel close to those who shared the service to the Church with us and who now intercede for us at God’s throne. I therefore thank you for your words, Your Eminence, Dean of the College of Cardinals, and I thank everyone present for the contribution that each one makes to the fulfilment of the ministry entrusted to me by the Lord. (Benedict XVI. Address to the Members of the Roman Curia, December 21, 2007)

Appreciated collaboration

This morning, the family of the Roman Curia also comes together, following a fine custom which gives us the joy of meeting and exchanging greetings in this special spiritual milieu. To each of you I offer a cordial greeting, full of gratitude for your valued collaboration with the ministry of the Successor of Peter. (Benedict XVI. Address to the Members of the Roman Curia, December 22, 2008)

Superior service rendered to the successor of Peter

This meeting gives me the opportunity to reaffirm my esteem and respect for your lofty service to the Successor of Peter and to the whole Church, while for you it is an incentive to ever greater commitment in a context that is indeed arduous, but invaluable for the salvation of souls. The principle that the salus animarum is the supreme law in the Church (cf. CIC, can. 1752) must indeed be borne in mind and every day must find in your work the strict respect that it merits. (Benedict XVI. Address for the Inauguration of the Judicial Year of the Roman Rota, January 26, 2013)

The Church of Rome has a special privilege due to the blood of the Apostles

It is a symbol of the special mission of Peter and his Successors to tend Christ’s flock, keeping it united in faith and in charity. At the beginning of the second century St Ignatius of Antioch attributed a special primacy to the Church which is in Rome, greeting her in his Letter to the Romans as the one which ‘presides in charity’. It is because the Apostles Peter and Paul, together with many other martyrs, poured out their blood in this City, that this special task of service depends on the Community of Rome and on its Bishop. Let us, thus, return to the witness of blood and of charity. The Chair of Peter is therefore the sign of authority, but of Christ’s authority, based on faith and on love. (Benedict XVI. Angelus, February 19, 2012)

…judges Francis’ ideas on Peace

Without an Acceptance of God There Will Be No Peace for Humanity

Consequently, it is essential that we should all be committed to living our lives in an attitude of responsibility before God, acknowledging him as the deepest source of our own existence and that of others. By going back to this supreme principle we are able to perceive the unconditional worth of each human being, and thus to lay the premises for building a humanity at peace. Without this transcendent foundation society is a mere aggregation of neighbours, not a community of brothers and sisters called to form one great family. (Benedict XVI, Message for the Celebration of the World Day of Peace, January 1, 2008)

Peace is a Gift of God that Demands a Personal Response Consistent with God’s Plan

Likewise, peace is both gift and task. If it is true that peace between individuals and peoples—the ability to live together and to build relationships of justice and solidarity—calls for unfailing commitment on our part, it is also true, and indeed more so, that peace is a gift from God. Peace is an aspect of God’s activity, made manifest both in the creation of an orderly and harmonious universe and also in the redemption of humanity that needs to be rescued from the disorder of sin. Creation and Redemption thus provide a key that helps us begin to understand the meaning of our life on earth. My venerable predecessor Pope John Paul II, addressing the General Assembly of the United Nations on October 5, 1995, stated that “we do not live in an irrational or meaningless world… there is a moral logic which is built into human life and which makes possible dialogue between individuals and peoples.” The transcendent “grammar”, that is to say the body of rules for individual action and the reciprocal relationships of persons in accordance with justice and solidarity, is inscribed on human consciences, in which the wise plan of God is reflected. As I recently had occasion to reaffirm: “we believe that at the beginning of everything is the Eternal Word, Reason and not Unreason.” Peace is thus also a task demanding of everyone a personal response consistent with God’s plan. The criterion inspiring this response can only be respect for the “grammar” written on human hearts by the divine Creator. (Benedict XVI. Message for the Celebration of the World Day of Peace, January 1, 2007)

…judges Francis’ idea on whether the Lord always Pardons…

The certainty of God’s pardon is not an excuse to fail to seek sanctity

Even when we have to struggle continually with the same failings, it is important to resist the coarsening of our souls and the indifference which would simply accept that this is the way we are. It is important to keep pressing forward, without scrupulosity, in the grateful awareness that God forgives us ever anew – yet also without the indifference that might lead us to abandon altogether the struggle for holiness and self-improvement. (Benedict XVI. Letter to Seminarians, n.3, October 18, 2010)

Priests should educate the faithful about the radical requirements of the Gospel

The discussed “crisis” of the Sacrament of Penance, frequently calls into question priests first of all and their great responsibility to teach the People of God the radical requirements of the Gospel. In particular, it asks them to dedicate themselves generously to hearing sacramental confessions; to guide the flock courageously so that it does not conform to the mindset of this world (cf. Rom 12:2) but may even be able to make decisions that run counter to the tide, avoiding adjustments and compromises. (Benedict XVI. Speech to Participants in the Internal Forum Course Organized by the Apostolic Penitentiary, March 11, 2010)

He who repents, receives pardon and the strength to sin no more

Jesus sent the adulterous woman away with this recommendation: ‘Go, and do not sin again’. He forgives her so that ‘from now on’ she will sin no more. In a similar episode, that of the repentant woman, a former sinner whom we come across in Luke’s Gospel (cf. Lk 7:36-50), he welcomed a woman who had repented and sent her peacefully on her way. Here, instead, the adulterous woman simply receives an unconditional pardon. In both cases – for the repentant woman sinner and for the adulterous woman – the message is the same. In one case it is stressed that there is no forgiveness without the desire for forgiveness, without opening the heart to forgiveness; here it is highlighted that only divine forgiveness and divine love received with an open and sincere heart give us the strength to resist evil and ‘to sin no more’, to let ourselves be struck by God’s love so that it becomes our strength. (Benedict XVI. Homily, visit to the Roman Parish of St. Felicity and her children, Martyrs, Sunday, 25 March 2007)

Confession is not only an instrument of pardon, but also of sanctification

Then there is a close connection between holiness and the Sacrament of Reconciliation, witnessed by all the saints of history. The real conversion of our hearts, which means opening ourselves to God’s transforming and renewing action, is the “driving force” of every reform and is expressed in a real evangelizing effort. In confession, through the freely bestowed action of divine Mercy, repentant sinners are justified, pardoned and sanctified and abandon their former selves to be reclothed in the new.(Benedict XVI. To participants in a course organized by the Apostolic Penitentiary, 9 March 2012)

I am not sure if the link above still works, but the site itself is still accessible (see link below), but without some of these articles.

This was only a tiny example of the immense work these priests did. The original website, was very comprehensive and for each wrong step of Francis, the article they wrote would include information from Church teachings, previous popes and saints, etc

You can still find the website at: https://en-denzingerbergoglio.com/

However, some links no longer work (e.g.”160 queries about Bergoglio”) but much information is still archived on it.
