A Proper Investigation can clear the air.

AM+DG

(From Tony – a regular contributor. Headings have been added by the editor.)

Judging an invalidly elected pope- the reasons why we have to sort it out:

“It is not easy to achieve salvation and get to Heaven…..it is the narrow road. We need all the help we can get from our pastors to help us, our families and loved ones stay on that narrow road.

For the pastors of the Catholic flock all over the planet…. this is a very grave responsibility they have.

It is generally understood that if a priest were to go to hell that he would take many souls with him.

How much more….. and in what massively greater numbers …..does this apply to the one who occupies the Chair of Peter?

Why a potentially invalid papacy must be examined

I have been told by one of the readers of these emails that I should not broach the topic of a potentially canonically invalid papacy.

  • First of all….there are many Catholics at all levels in the Church who are writing and talking about this……and they are all of the orthodox, conservative mould…..ie  REAL CATHOLICS.
  • Secondly, we would much prefer not to have to be analysing these things.
  • We don’t now feel safe. We felt safe under Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI. We felt no need to be questioning their validity.
  • But the heretical, blasphemous and idol worshipping ways of Bergoglio force us to look for an understanding of the full nature of what is happening.

Why we can’t leave it to the bishops:

Did any of us believe we would see the day that a Pope would be sanctioning Sacrilegious communion, as he did with the Apostolic Exhortation, ‘Amoris Laetitia’?

This was a long thoroughly thought out and executed plan involving:-

  • Bergoglio introducing Cardinal Kasper to the Catholic world in his very first angelus address, referring to Kasper as a ‘talented theologian’
  • Having Kasper give the opening and only address at the Consistory on the Family in February 2014 as a prelude to the 2 Synods on the family, where he touted the idea of divorced and remarried receiving communion…..
  • Bergoglio then grovelingly singing the praises of Kasper and what he spewed out saying, “Yesterday, before falling asleep, though not to fall asleep, I read, or re-read, Cardinal Kasper’s remarks. I would like to thank him, because I found a deep theology, and serene thoughts in theology. It is nice to read serene theology. It did me well and I had an idea, and excuse me if I embarrass Your Eminence, but the idea is: this is called doing theology while kneeling. Thank you. Thank you.”
  • Having two synods on the family where all discussions and statements seemed to be pushed and manouvred in the direction of divorced and remarried receiving communion.
  • Finally with the releasing of Amoris Laetitia, with its ambiguous and nebulous use of language and word play in order to gain acceptability, Bergoglio opens the door to Sacrilegious communion.

Brilliant!!! And it has deceived so much of the Catholic world.

Why it must be investigated

  • This was a long, very, very expensive and carefully constructed operation folks……to bring on the sanctioning of sacrilege…….and many clergy now chastise lay Catholics who don’t accept the heretical teachings of ‘Amoris Laetitia’.

 

  • A papacy that has introduced the sacrilegious reception of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, not to mention the multiplicity of other heretical and blasphemous statements he has made since March 13, 2013, must be questioned and investigated.

 

  • I do not want to avoid clinging on to the True Faith out of fear as the people of England did… to the King who wanted six wives…..and had them….. at the cost of the entire Catholic nation tragically apostatising from the True Faith out of fear.

If that involves putting under the microscope, every single step in the process of the St Gallen Mafia Club potentially pressuring Pope Benedict to step aside…. as was prophesied would happen…along with all of the other steps in the process of Bergoglio taking the Chair…..then it must be done!!!

  • We cannot accept the entire global Catholic Church being taught that sacrilege is acceptable!!!

THIS IS A CRISIS IN THE CHURCH WITHOUT PRECEDENCE!!!

SO WE SHOULD NOT BE LOOKING ONLY TO PRECEDENCE TO DEAL WITH IT!!!

WE SHOULD BE LOOKING TO EVERY CANONICALLY LEGAL WAY OF INVESTIGATING AND ASSESSING….. WE CAN LAY OUR HANDS ON!!!

St Bernard of Clairvaux was persistent and tenacious in establishing who was the true Pope in his time when there was an anti-pope on the Chair in Rome and ensuring that the True Pope was accepted throughout the Catholic world.

Though so much of this current crisis has been prophesied….I am still shocked and numbed at seeing this global loss of faith happening before my eyes under the stewardship of Bergoglio…….and I know I am not the only one.

  • All Faithful Catholics are suffering with this unfolding scenario.

 

  • THE STAKES ARE THROUGH THE ROOF…. AND ETERNAL FOR EVERYONE.

HEAVEN FOREVER     OR     HELL FOREVER.

FOREVER!!!!!!

  • There are no canonical impediments to the investigation of every element and step of Bergoglio’s election. It merely requires high level clergy with the will and backbone to do it.

Judging a validly elected pope

Judging a validly elected Pope falling into manifest heresy is another topic. This too, is fraught with difficulty. It may well be an unnecessary conversation however, if Bergoglio was never a valid Pope in the first place because of  Canon Law 332:2 and the Apostolic Constitution Universi Dominici Gregis being contravened in the process of him coming to the Chair of Peter. Also an investigation into his heretical ways as a Cardinal back in Buenos Aires.

There is absolutely no impediment to an investigation into that.

This has nothing to do with judging a valid Pope but rather the judging of whether the one on the Chair was ever validly there.

There is no impediment to investigating and judging that!!!

There is a need “to investigate this massive and horrific crisis in our Church today!!!”

 

 Statements of some pre-Vatican II canonists:

“Finally they cannot be numbered among the schismatics, who refuse to obey the Roman Pontiff because they consider his person to be suspect or doubtfully elected on account of rumors in circulation…” Wernz-Vidal: Ius Canonicum, Vol vii, n. 398.

“Neither is someone a schismatic for denying his subjection to the Pontiff on the grounds that he has solidly founded [probabiliter] doubts concerning the legitimacy of his election or his power [refs to Sanchez and Palao].” de Lugo: Disp., De Virt. Fid. Div., disp xxv, sect iii, nn. 35-8

“Nor is there any schism if one suspects the person of the pope or the validity of his election, or if one resists him as the civil head of a state.” Szal, Rev Ignatius: Communication of Catholics with Schismatics, CUA, 1948, p.2

Prophetic advice to the Church of The End Times Foretold through the Ages: Part 3

AM+DG

 Advice from the Popes (cont’d)

Pope Pius IX, Allocution to Pilgrims, Nov. 27, 1871 (in Papal Teachings: The Church, n. 389)

“…this beloved Rome, purpled with the blood of so many martyrs, they [the Church’s enemies] want to cast it once more into the pit of that old corruption, make it return to the times of Nero, or better, of Julian the Apostate; this beloved Rome, sacred center of truth, they would like to make it become again the center of all errors. But they will not succeed: God is fighting for his Church. They will not succeed because the Church of Christ, built upon a rock, will never be shaken, whatever be the violence of the storm. She has the guarantees of this in the words of the God who said: The gates of hell shall not prevail… The Church can never be reconciled with error, and the Pope cannot be separated from the Church.”

(The Church is certainly becoming the centre of all errors. They have tried to separate the true Pope from the Church. This is the problem now – how to get our dear good bishops to see who is the True Pope? I, myself, just judging from the words and actions spoken, can say that the one generally accepted to be true was not elected by the holy Spirit. God has allowed it so that all the evil and darkness will be exposed to the Light. Then the Lord will act because the gates of hell will not prevail.)

Pope St. Leo II, Third Council of Constantinople, 681

“…[I]t is not allowable for anyone to produce another faith, that is, to write or to compose or to consider or to teach others; those who dare to compose another faith, or to support or to teach or to hand on another creed to those who wish to turn to knowledge of the truth, whether from Hellenism or Judaism or indeed from any heresy whatsoever, or to introduce novelty of speech, that is, invention of terms, so as to overturn what has now been defined by us, such persons, if they are bishops or clerics, are deprived of their episcopacy or clerical rank, and if they are monks or layfolk they are excommunicated.”

( “produce another faith”? Well, so far, they have destroyed God’s teaching about marriage – divorce and remarriage, homosexual marriage, Seal of Confession removed in many places, introduced pagan worship, changed the teaching about Capital punishment, changed the words the Our Father (Christ’s words!), celebrated Mass with Soccer balls on altar and rainbow vestments, pagan offering on the altar, sins against “creation”, told to obey the U.N., etc. They are well on their way to achieving their goal.)

Pope Gregory XVI, Encyclical Quo Graviora, n. 10, 1833

“The Church is the pillar and foundation of truth — all of which truth is taught by the Holy Spirit. Should the church be able to order, yield to, or permit those things which tend toward the destruction of souls and the disgrace and detriment of the sacrament instituted by Christ?”

(Seems that the truths being taught now are from the “spirit” as (pope Francis) often claims – but which spirit? It can not be the ‘Holy Spirit” because it permits things that “tend toward the destruction of souls and the disgrace and detriment of the sacrament instituted by Christ”.)

Pope Leo XIII, Encyclical Immortale Dei, n. 41, 1885

“As regards opinion, whatever the Roman Pontiffs have hitherto taught, or shall hereafter teach, must be held with a firm grasp of mind, and, so often as occasion requires, must be openly professed.”

(This is good advice for us today. We have to fight the modernists and continually openly profess the truths which  “the Roman Pontiffs have hitherto taught”)

 

Pope Leo XIII, Encyclical Sapientiae Christianae, n. 24, 1890

“In defining the limits of the obedience owed to the pastors of souls, but most of all to the authority of the Roman Pontiff, it must not be supposed that it is only to be yielded in relation to dogmas of which the obstinate denial cannot be disjoined from the crime of heresy. Nay, further, it is not enough sincerely and firmly to assent to doctrines which, though not defined by any solemn pronouncement of the Church, are by her proposed to belief, as divinely revealed, in her common and universal teaching, and which the Vatican Council declared are to be believed ‘with Catholic and divine faith.’ But this likewise must be reckoned amongst the duties of Christians, that they allow themselves to be ruled and directed by the authority and leadership of bishops, and, above all, of the apostolic see. And how fitting it is that this should be so any one can easily perceive. For the things contained in the divine oracles have reference to God in part, and in part to man, and to whatever is necessary for the attainment of his eternal salvation. Now, both these, that is to say, what we are bound to believe and what we are obliged to do, are laid down, as we have stated, by the Church using her divine right, and in the Church by the supreme Pontiff. Wherefore it belongs to the Pope to judge authoritatively what things the sacred oracles contain, as well as what doctrines are in harmony, and what in disagreement, with them; and also, for the same reason, to show forth what things are to be accepted as right, and what to be rejected as worthless; what it is necessary to do and what to avoid doing, in order to attain eternal salvation. For, otherwise, there would be no sure interpreter of the commands of God, nor would there be any safe guide showing man the way he should live.”

(As long as the majority of people accept the pretender pope, this advice will cause confusion. This man is not the the true pope. This advice can only  be applied to the teachings of all “true” popes. Modernists will say “you have to obey the Pope and Francis is the pope. This is very deceptive. We must continue to fight so that all is exposed and so that souls will not be decaived.))

Pope Pius XII, Encyclical Fulgens Radiatur, n. 11, 1947;

“Trusting in God and relying on His ever present help, [St. Benedict] went south and arrived at a fort ‘called Cassino situated on the side of a high mountain…; on this stood an old temple where Apollo was worshipped by the foolish country people, according to the custom of the ancient heathens. Around it likewise grew groves, in which even till that time the mad multitude of infidels used to offer their idolatrous sacrifices. The man of God coming to that place broke the idol, overthrew the altar, burned the groves, and of the temple of Apollo made a chapel of St. Martin. Where the profane altar had stood he built a chapel of St. John; and by continual preaching he converted many of the people thereabout’.”

(Not the bishops, or the Pretender pope, or anyone present at the Pachamama idol worshiping ceremony  to “consecrate” the Amazon Synod in Oct. 2019, took heed of this advice. But thankfully, a few days later a young man took the idols and threw them into the Tiber River. The true believers cheered.“Roman Catholicism and that the true path to the conversion and salvation of people is not to respect their false religions but to lead them out of them into the True Faith”)

Pope Leo XIII, Instruction to the Sacred Congregation of Extraordinary Ecclesiastical Affairs, 1902; quoted by Pope St. Pius X in Pascendi Dominici Gregis, n. 55, 1907

“It is impossible to approve in Catholic publications a style inspired by unsound novelty which seems to deride the piety of the faithful and dwells on the introduction of a new order of Christian life, on new directions of the Church, on new aspirations of the modern soul, on a new social vocation of the clergy, on a new Christian civilization, and many other things of the same kind.”

(This is a description of today’s Church, and today’s society. I noticed “a new Christian civilization” – is this “obey the U.N.? “new social vocation” – is this the ‘new humanism”? It seems that “unsound novelty” is the order of the day.)

Pope St. Pius X, Apostolic Letter Notre Charge Apostolique, 1910

“…the great movement of apostasy being organized in every country for the establishment of a One-World Church which shall have neither dogmas, nor hierarchy, neither discipline for the mind, nor curb for the passions, and which, under the pretext of freedom and human dignity, would bring back to the world (if such a Church could overcome) the reign of legalized cunning and force, and the oppression of the weak, and of all those who toil and suffer. […] Indeed, the true friends of the people are neither revolutionaries, nor innovators: they are traditionalists.”

(This is where we are headed – towards the New One World Church. Dogmas are out the window, there is lots of pretext about freedoms and dignity ( pagans, homosexuals, ). Indeed this pretender pope is the False Prophet, who is getting the Church ready for the One world Church. It is the masonic dream. They have been preparing it for hundreds of years. They have their man on the throne ( ee their “Alta Vendita”) who is preparing the way. We have to recognize the evidence all around us. Take heed of the last sentence.)

 

Prophetic advice to the Church of The End Times Foretold through the Ages: Part 2

AM+DG

 Advice from the Popes

Pope Leo XIII, Encyclical Custodi di Quella Fede, n. 15, 1892

“Everyone should avoid familiarity or friendship with anyone suspected of belonging to Masonry or to affiliated groups. Know them by their fruits and avoid them. Every familiarity should be avoided, not only with those impious libertines who openly promote the character of the sect, but also with those who hide under the mask of universal tolerance, respect for all religions, and the craving to reconcile the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution. These men seek to reconcile Christ and Belial, the Church of God and the state without God.”

(Wow! This certainly says it all. Many of our bishops (majority?) are masons (including Bergoglio), and they certainly display the other characteristics of “universal tolerance, respect for all religions, and seeking to reconcile ” the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution.”)

Pope St. Pius X, Apostolic Letter Notre Charge Apostolique, 1910

“Our Apostolic Mandate requires from Us that We watch over the purity of the Faith and the integrity of Catholic discipline. It requires from Us that We protect the faithful from evil and error; especially so when evil and error are presented in dynamic language which, concealing vague notions and ambiguous expressions with emotional and high-sounding words, is likely to set ablaze the hearts of men in pursuit of ideals which, whilst attractive, are nonetheless nefarious.”

( Well, how appropriate is this in evaluating Bergoglio?)

Pope Pius IX, Brief to Circle of St. Ambrose of Mila, 1873 (qtd. here)

“People are not wanting who pretend to form an alliance between light and darkness and to associate justice with iniquity in favor of those doctrines called Liberal Catholicism, which, based on the most pernicious principles, show themselves favorable to the intrusion of secular power upon the domain of spirituals; they lead their partisans to esteem, or at least to tolerate, iniquitous laws, as if it were not written that no one can serve two masters. Those who thus conduct themselves are more dangerous and more baneful than declared enemies, not only because, without being warned of it, perhaps even without being conscious of it, they second the projects of wicked men, but also because, keeping within certain limits, they show themselves with some appearance of probity and sound doctrine. They thus deceive the indiscreet friends of conciliation and seduce honest people, who would otherwise have strenuously combatted a declared error.”

Pope St. Pius X, Encyclical Pascendi Dominici Gregis, n. 13, 1907

“[According to the doctrine of the Modernists] it is necessary that the primitive [religious] formulas be accepted and sanctioned by the heart; and similarly the subsequent work from which are brought forth the secondary formulas must proceed under the guidance of the heart. Hence it comes that these formulas, in order to be living, should be, and should remain, adapted to the faith and to him who believes. Wherefore, if for any reason this adaptation should cease to exist, they lose their first meaning and accordingly need to be changed. In view of the fact that the character and lot of dogmatic formulas are so unstable, it is no wonder that Modernists should regard them so lightly and in such open disrespect, and have no consideration or praise for anything but the religious sense and for the religious life. In this way, with consummate audacity, they criticize the Church, as having strayed from the true path by failing to distinguish between the religious and moral sense of formulas and their surface meaning, and by clinging vainly and tenaciously to meaningless formulas, while religion itself is allowed to go to ruin.”

(All the errors we have seen lately are based on the modernists’ rule of “guidance of the heart”.)

Pope Pius XII, Instruction On the Ecumenical Movement, n. II, 1949

“Therefore the whole and entire Catholic doctrine is to be presented and explained: by no means is it permitted to pass over in silence or to veil in ambiguous terms the Catholic truth regarding the nature and way of justification, the constitution of the Church, the primacy of jurisdiction of the Roman Pontiff, and the only true union by the return of the dissidents to the one true Church of Christ.”
(Modernists do not explain the whole Catholic doctrine. They pick and choose, twist and misquote Christ’s teachings. We have seen that done over and over, during the last 7 years  under bthe ‘False Prophet”.)

Pope Pius XII, Encyclical Orientalis Ecclesiae, n. 16, 1944

“Even on the plea of promoting unity it is not allowed to dissemble one single dogma; for, as the Patriarch of Alexandria warns us, ‘although the desire of peace is a noble and excellent thing, yet we must not for its sake neglect the virtue of loyalty in Christ.’ Consequently, the much desired return of erring sons to true and genuine unity in Christ will not be furthered by exclusive concentration on those doctrines which all, or most, communities glorying in the Christian name accept in common. The only successful method will be that which bases harmony and agreement among Christ’s faithful ones upon all the truths, and the whole of the truths, which God has revealed

(“Dissemble” dogmas  …..  like divorce and remarriage; going to communion while living in sin; like blessing homosexual marriages (as some bishops have done), giving Holy Communion to practicing homosexuals, like worshipping pagan gods and using pagan symbols on the Altar during the Holy Sacrifice…?????)

Pope Pius IX, Encyclical Inter Multiplices, n. 7, 1853

“Now you know well that the most deadly foes of the Catholic religion have always waged a fierce war, but without success, against this Chair [of St. Peter]; they are by no means ignorant of the fact that religion itself can never totter and fall while this Chair remains intact, the Chair which rests on the rock which the proud gates of hell cannot overthrow and in which there is the whole and perfect solidity of the Christian religion.”

(Now we know why Pope Benedict was targeted. They had to get rid of him. The masons had to put their own man on the Chair of Peter.)

Pope Vigilius, Second Council of Constantinople, 553

“As we said earlier, I repeat once more: If anyone preaches to you a gospel contrary to what you have received, let him be accursed. …The heretic, even though he has not been condemned formally by any individual, in reality brings anathema on himself, having cut himself off from the way of truth by his heresy. What reply can such people make to the Apostle when he writes: As for someone who is factious, after admonishing him once or twice, have nothing more to do with him, knowing that such a person is perverted and sinful; he is self-condemned. It was in the spirit of this text that Cyril of holy memory, in the books which he wrote against Theodore, declared as follows: ‘Whether or not they are alive, we ought to keep clear of those who are in the grip of such dreadful errors. It is necessary always to avoid what is harmful, and not to be worried about public opinion but rather to consider what is pleasing to God’.”

(Our hearts ache to hear and see the heresies that have been promoted – usually very subtly and cunningly, and that so many are misled. As Pope Vigilius tells us – we have to keep clear of them, but this is difficult in this technological age.)

Pope Clement XIII, Encyclical In Dominico Agro, n. 2, 1761

“…diabolical error, when it has artfully colored its lies, easily clothes itself in the likeness of truth while very brief additions or changes corrupt the meaning of expressions; and confession, which usually works salvation, sometimes, with a slight change, inches toward death.”

(This is what we have to look out for – diabolical errors which are clothed in the likeness of Truth : ‘Who am I to judge?”; ” “There is no hell, there is the disappearance of sinful souls”; “: “The Paraclete creates all the differences among the Churches, almost as if he were an Apostle of Babel.“; “Our Lady was human! And perhaps she even had the desire to say: ‘Lies! I was deceived!“; “the miracle of Jesus multiplying the bread and fish was really a miracle of “sharing“, and many, many more examples abound, as you probably are well aware of.)

Pope Pius XII, Encyclical Humani Generis, n. 30, 1950

“Let no Christian therefore, whether philosopher or theologian, embrace eagerly and lightly whatever novelty happens to be thought up from day to day, but rather let him weigh it with painstaking care and a balanced judgment, lest he lose or corrupt the truth he already has, with grave danger and damage to his faith.”

( The warning here is to weigh up everything very carefully. This applies to all of us as well as our bishops and priests. You can’t improve on God’s law or His Teachings. The Truth is the Truth!))

Pope St. Pius X, Encyclical Editae Saepe, nn. 17-18, 1910

“These moderns, forever prattling about culture and civilization, are undermining the Church’s doctrine, laws, and practices. They are not concerned very much about culture and civilization. By using such high-sounding words they think they can conceal the wickedness of their schemes. All of you know their purpose, subterfuges, and methods. On Our part We have denounced and condemned their scheming. They are proposing a universal apostasy even worse than the one that threatened the age of Charles [Borromeo]. It is worse, We say, because it stealthily creeps into the very veins of the Church, hides there, and cunningly pushes erroneous principles to their ultimate conclusions.”

(“prattling about culture and civilizations” – I can’t believe that this was written 100 years ago! A recent example:  “Pope Francis said he dreams of an Amazon region where the rights of the poor and indigenous are respected, local cultures are preserved, nature is protected, and the Catholic Church is present and active with “Amazonian features.”)

Pope Benedict XIV, Encyclical Allatae Sunt, 1755

“Pope Gelasius in his ninth letter (chap. 26) to the bishops of Lucania condemned the evil practice which had been introduced of women serving the priest at the celebration of Mass. Since this abuse had spread to the Greeks, Innocent IV strictly forbade it in his letter to the bishop of Tusculum: ‘Women should not dare to serve at the altar; they should be altogether refused this ministry.’ We too have forbidden this practice in the same words….”

( Well what do you know? Our priest told us that all heresies are old ones – just resurfacing. What about this one?  Right on target for today.)

Prophetic advice to the Church of The End Times Foretold through the Ages

AM+DG

 

Part 1 – From the Bible and the The Saints

Deuternomy 13:1-4

“If a prophet arises ... and tells you of signs or wonders and if the signs and wonders take place, and he says, ‘Let us follow other gods which you have not known and let us worship them.’ You must not listen to the words of that prophet... The Lord your God is testing you to find out if you love Him with all your heart, and with all your soul. It is the Lord your God you must follow…”

(A prophet that tells us to follow other gods – like perhaps Bergoglio who joined in the worship of the Pachamama idols then, carried them in procession, established them to be honoured in a Catholic church, and even put an offering on the altar during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass –  is obviously the “False Prophet” (as in Revelation). As God tells us in the quote above – “The Lord your God is testing you to find out if you love Him with all your heart, and with all your soul. It is the Lord your God you must follow…”)

Deuteronomy 13:6-7

“If your very own brother, or son or daughter, or the wife that you love, or you closest friend secretly entices you saying, ‘Let us go and worship other gods,’ gods that neither you or your fathers have known, gods of the people around you whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other, do not yield to him or listen to him…”

Daniel 7:25

[25] “And he shall speak words against the High One, and shall crush the saints of the most High: and he shall think himself able to change times and laws, and they shall be delivered into his hand until a time, and times, and half a time.” (Note: A time, and times, and half a time: That is, three years and a half; which is supposed to be the length of the duration of the persecution of Antichrist.)

(We can certainly see how the false prophet has accomplished these things – “speak words against the High One” and “crush the saints of the most High”, he has changed” times and laws”)

 Lk 18:8

“The Son of Man, when He cometh, shall He find, think you, faith on earth?”

Matt. 24: 25-28

 “Behold I have told it to you beforehand. So if anyone says there he is in the desert, do not go, or here he is in the inner room, do not believe it. For as lighting comes from east to west, so will be the coming of the son of man, (Jesus). Wherever there is a carcass, there the eagles will be gathered.”

2 Peter 3:3-13

“ 3.First of all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised?

St. Paul the Apostle (2 Thess 2:7-11)

“For the mystery of iniquity already worketh; only that he who now holdeth, do hold, until he be taken out of the way. And then that wicked one shall be revealed whom the Lord Jesus shall kill with the spirit of his mouth; and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming, him, Whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders, And in all seduction of iniquity to them that perish; because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Therefore God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying: That all may be judged who have not believed the truth, but have consented to iniquity.“

(St Paul tells us that evil is already working, but the “wicked one” cannot be revealed while “he who now holds (Benedict) is taken away”. That is, until he leaves the Vatican. This is verified by Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich when she said on 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.…”

“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...”

This fact about the Pope leaving Rome is again mentioned by St Paul in verse 5 below:)

St. Paul the Apostle to the Thessalonians: 2: 1-12

1 “And we exhort you, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and of our gathering together unto Him 2 that you be not easily shaken in mind, nor be terrified, neither by spirit nor by word, nor by letter, as sent from us, as if the Day of the Lord were at hand. 3 Let no man deceive you by any means, for that day will not come unless there first comes the revolt and the revealing of the Man of Sin, the Son of Perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, so that he sits in the Temple of God showing himself as if he were God [Dan. 11:36,37; Ezek.28:2].

5 Do you not remember that when I was yet with you, I told you these things? 6 And now you know what has been restraining him [from being revealed], that he may be revealed in his time.“

(See comment above)

Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, III, q. 64, art. 2, ad. 3

“The apostles and their successors are God’s vicars in governing the Church which is built on faith and the sacraments of faith. Wherefore, just as they may not institute another Church, so neither may they deliver another faith, nor institute other sacraments.”

(We can certainly see that the Faith and the Sacraments on which the Church is built, is being destroyed and replaced with social justice -“the new humanism”- scarcely any mention of God is made. Amoris Laetitia has destroyed the Sacrament of Marriage and this then affects the Sacrament of Penance. The Amazon Synod has begun the processof destroying Holy Orders. )

St. Nicholas of Flue, in Catholic Prophecy, edited by Yves Dupont, p. 30

“The Church will be punished because the majority of her members, high and low, will become so perverted. The Church will sink deeper and deeper until she will at last seem to be extinguished, and the succession of Peter and the other Apostles to have expired. But, after this, she will be victoriously exalted in the sight of all doubters.”

St. Francis de Sales, Introduction to the Devout Life, Part III, Chapter 29

“The declared enemies of God and His Church, heretics and schismatics, must be criticized as much as possible, as long as truth is not denied. It is a work of charity to shout: ‘Here is the wolf!’ when it enters the flock or anywhere else.”

(I love this quote and the following one.. We are often told by our dear good priests, to be charitable, that we shouldn’t judge, that we should not cry out – but popes and saints tell us otherwise. Of course we must be careful to cry out against their actions and not the person. We can’t just leave it to the bishops. It is the laity who must cry out. We are all part of the Mystical Body)

Saint Robert Bellarmine, a Doctor of the Church

De Controversiis on the Roman Pontiff, trans. Ryan Grant (Mediatrix Press: 2015), Book II, Chapter 29, p. 303.

“Just as it is licit to resist the Pontiff that aggresses the body, it is also licit to resist the one who aggresses souls or who disturbs civil order, or, above all, who attempts to destroy the Church. I say that it is licit to resist by not doing what he orders and by preventing his will from being executed…”

The Bergoglians are running in terror. They have closed worship in two entire dioceses in Northern Italy. They are refusing to distribute the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar in mouths. They are positively terrified.

It makes no sense, since the Corona Virus only attacks those who are already in poor health and most of these are the very elderly who cannot make it to church anyhow.

But it makes sense if the leadership of your Church is HIV positive, because you have no or a very weakened immune system.

Those who want to make up their religion have no supernatural motives and no real hope of eternal life. They know that, because they know that howsoever much they might pretend, their god, themselves, is not a god and cannot save them from Death.

Catholics on the other hand continue to go bravely to Mass and to communion, placing all their hope in the God of Life who rose from the death and can protect His own from eternal death and temporal death.

Many Catholics in Italy have never accepted communion in the hand. This current trial is helping many open their eyes to the fact that the Bishops in communion with Bergoglio are atheists, that is, they believe in nothing but their own ideologies. They have, thus, no courage or hope against the Corona Virus.

The closing of Churches and refusal of the Sacraments, however, shows that the Bergoglian Church has the long term goal to close churches and end the Sacraments. They want a religion where you pay them to enjoy themselves in debauchery, and to receive from them the thinking points for the one world order.  All those who insist Bergoglio is the pope are collaborators with that agenda whether they want it or not.

Please join us to pray for our Cardinal!

Memorare to Our Lady

(This version of he Memorare is from the 1741 edition of the Couleste Palmetum)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession
was left unaided by thee.
Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, Mary, Virgin of virgins, Mother of Jesus Christ; to thee do I come; before
thee I stand, sinful, sorrowful and trembling.
O Mistress of the World and Mother of the Word Incarnate,
despise not my petitions,
but in thy mercy hear and answer wretched me crying to thee in
this vale of tears.

Be near me, I beseech thee, in all my necessities, now and always, and especially at the hour of my death.
O clement, o loving, o sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.

Prayer to St John Fisher

O GOD, Who didst grant to Thy blessed Bishop John, the grace courageously to give his life for truth
and justice, grant through his intercession and example that we may so lose our life in this world for
Christ, that we may find it in heaven.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who liveth and
reigneth with You in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, for ever and ever, Amen.

Prayer to St Thomas More

O GOD, Who didst bestow upon the blessed Martyr Thomas –  the grace to embrace Thy Cross with a
joyous and resolute spirit amidst the snares of the world, and the sufferings of prison and death, grant,
we pray Thee, through his intercession and example, that eagerly striving for faith and justice we may
merit to come to the joys of everlasting life.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who liveth
and reigneth with You in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, for ever and ever, Amen.

Mary, Mirror of Justice, pray for him.
St John Fisher, pray for him.
St Thomas More, pray for him.

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

The Rock

AM+DG

Only the Successor of Peter can be “The Rock” on which the Catholic Church stands.

This article by Bro Alexis Bugnolo by describing how Luther, Calvin and Henry VIII led the Church into apostasy, but –

“… no part of the Church has even fallen into a Apostasy when it remained united to the true Pope. …

This is why now 99.99% of the Catholic Church is being led into Apostasy. Because they are no longer united in reality with the true Pope, though many are still fooled about this.

And this is why Bergoglio has such power. Because the first sin, which gives him power over you, is in holding that Pope Benedict XVI resigned the papacy, when 5 minutes of examination of Canon Law and the Papal Declaration can prove that he never resigned.  …”

He concludes with:

“If priests want to be truly effective, you need to return to communion with the Vicar of the Sacred Heart of Jesus: Pope Benedict XVI. Bergoglio will never have that effect, because he is the Vicar of nobody, but the vain imaginations of giddy Cardinals who were, as Pope Benedict XVI implied on Feb. 11, 2013, not competent to elect his Successor.”

This is a very thought provoking article. Read it all at the link below:

via The Rock

We can see what has happened to the Church since the usurper took over.

There is widespread apostasy – never seen on a scale like this before; heresies and blasphemies abound; paganism has been introduced into the Church and the Amazonian synod consecrated to the idols of Pachamama ( i. e. to evil).

This usurper mocks the holy and has a knack of twisting Christ’s teachings into meaning something that they do not mean. He has approved of persons indulging in sins of the worst kind in the name of “tolerance”. He introduced Amoris Laetitia into the Magisterium through a back door (by means of a letter). He has profaned the Sacraments

He actually calls people names, especially faithful Catholics. There has never been a “pope” such as this : quite “unholy”.

Let’s face it. Francis is the THE False Prophet (of Revelation). He is preparing the world for the Anti-christ.

Ven. Archbishop Fulton Sheen said:“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.“

Sadly, we can see all this happening before our eyes.

Prophecies 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. 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.“ – April 12th, 2012

“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.” – January 18th, 2012

“My beloved Pope Benedict XVI is the last true pope on this Earth”. – April 12th, 2012

See more prophecies about The False Prophet  in the next post

Pope Benedict still acts like the Pope and this gives us comfort.

AM+DG

Pope Benedict XVI is not afraid to speak up, when necessary.

1.Earlier this month there was  one journalist who spoke about  “bookgate”.

The book written By Sarah and Benedict undermined the announcement of the pretend pope-  the False Prophet – of his Exhortation on the Amazonian Synod. The “Instrumentem Laboris”  for the synod had been announced weeks beforehand. It was evident what was on the agenda. Pope Benedict and Cardinal Sarah took action. Their book on celibacy was written and published before the pretend pope was able to announce his exhortation.  It was reported that he was angry! He was afraid that he would lose some of the support that he had hoped for. Not surprisingly, these matters then, were not addressed directly in the Exhortation. But you have to read between the lines. He DID say, that he DID NOT NEED to go over the final document of the synod, because wqe should READ IT FOR OURSELVES. Some very naïve people, who want only to be reassured that this (pope?) has some goodness and Truth left in him, thought that a BIG MISTAKE had been avoided.

In an article describing this event( February 13, 2020 ), Br. Alexis Bugnolo wrote:

” Sandro Magister has at last spilled the beans — as we say in English — that is, he has told us what really happened during the recent Book Flap over the defense of the Priestly Celibacy by His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Robert Sarah, the only Cardinal in any position in the Roman Curia, who was appointed to his office by Pope Benedict XVI.

The Main Stream Media has run with the story that it was Bergoglio who fired Archbishop Georg Gänswein for not preventing that Book from going to press and obstructing its publication as a work of the Cardinal and the Pope.

But Magister, apologist extraordinaire for the Argentine Regime at the Vatican, in a report on his official Blog at L’Espresso, says what really happened. In a post entitled,Il silenzio di Francesco, le lacrime di Ratzinger e quella sua dichiarazione mai pubblicata – in which he speaks in a noticeable intent to humiliate the reigning Pontiff by calling him by his civil name — he says that it was Benedict who first detected Gänswein’s treachery and took decisive action to circumvent his interference.

Magister (explains):

Well, the morning of Wednesday, January 15th, while pope Francis was holding his weekly general audience and Gänswein was sitting, according to the rule, at his side in the Paul VI Hall, far indeed from the Monastery Mater Ecclesiae which is the residence of the Pope Emeritus, of whom he is the secretary, Benedict XVI personally picked up the phone and called Sara first at his home, where he did not find him, and then in his office, where the Cardinal picked up.

Benedict XVI expressed, in a heartfelt manner, his solidarity with Sarah. He confided in him that he had not understood the reasons for such a violent and unjust aggression.  And he wept. Sarah also wept. The phone call ended with both of them in tears.

Magister also reports that Cardinal Sarah and Pope Benedict then wrote up a joint Statement and had Gänswein bring it over to the sostituto of the Secretary of State,

Thus it is not surprising in the least that the communication written by the Pope and Cardinal never saw the light of day. But Magister says, that the Italian Version of the Book, was defended by the Publisher a few days later, with a public statement crafted by Cardinal Parolin himself, word for word, praising the book.

…

“…But the real news is this. Pope Benedict XVI is as fiesty as ever. He had no illusions about the Archbishop which would have made him hesitant to break faith with him and make his own phone call behind the Archbishop’s back. He then began direct relations with Cardinal Sarah and was devastated to hear how his former personal secretary had betrayed him in the public press.

… The events related by Magister point to a significant moment in history. That was when Pope Benedict XVI unplugged Gänswein. The Italians call it, defenistrazione, which is a colorful word deriving from Late Latin, meaning to throw someone out of their office through the window, rather than letting them resign with dignity by leaving the office through the door after a resignation.

That is really why the Archbishop disappeared. Bergoglio could not fire him. Only the Pope can do that.”

From:

https://fromrome.info/2020/02/13/benedict-not-francis-unplugged-ganswein/

2. Pope Benedict had spoken up (July 17, 2017) at Cardinal Meisner’s funeral  when he said that

“he was moved at the dubia cardinal’s ability to “live out of a deep conviction that the Lord does not abandon His Church, even when the boat has taken on so much water as to be on the verge of capsizing.”

The Church “stands in particularly pressing need of convincing shepherds who can resist the dictatorship of the spirit of the age and who live and think the faith with determination,” Pope Benedict said in a message read by Archbishop Georg Gänswein, his personal secretary and head of the papal household. Because of this “pressing need,” Meisner “found it difficult to leave his post.”

The article also stated:

” Canon lawyer Kurt Martens said Pope Benedict’s message was an “amazing yet diplomatic form of support for [the] dubia Cardinals.”

In June 2017, Pope Benedict met new cardinals alongside Pope Francis. He had a brief message for them: “The Lord wins in the end.”

3. More recently he was impelled to correct the error regarding clerical sexual abuse at the US Conference of Bishops in April, 2019:

Pope Benedict’s letter re Clerical sexual abuse to USCCB April 2019

By Jason Horowitz

  • April 11, 2019

ROME — In his retirement, Pope Benedict XVI is apparently tired of hiding.

The former pontiff, who declared he would “remain hidden to the world” when he became the first pope in six centuries to abdicate in 2013, has released a 6,000-word letter that puts the blame for the clerical sexual abuse crisis in the Roman Catholic Church on the sexual revolution of the 1960s, the disappearance of God from public discourse in the West and what he considers dangerously liberal theological ideas that eroded morality after the church reforms of the Second Vatican Council.

…

The deeply theological and esoteric missive, which Benedict called his contribution “in this difficult hour” for the church, was written “absolutely on his own” by Benedict, according to Archbishop Georg Gänswein, Benedict’s longtime personal secretary, who is also the prefect of the papal household under Pope Francis.

…

In writing the letter, Benedict realized the fears of many church experts who have argued that having two pontiffs living at the same time was a recipe for pastoral, theological and political disaster and could lead to confusion among the faithful.

Although Benedict wrote that he gave his successor and the Vatican’s Secretariat of State a heads up about the letter, it amounted to the most significant undercutting yet of the authority of Pope Francis, who has instead blamed a systemic abuse of power and an unhealthy adoration of authority within the church’s hierarchy for the crisis.

and also read about it here:

https://www.biography.com/news/pope-francis-pope-benedict-relationship

“The letter publicly undercut Francis, whose views on the subject had already been made public. “

4. Finally, there are other ways that  Pope Benedict XVI speaks up, not in words, but visually.

The following is taken from Ann Barnhardt’s English transcript of her video:

0:55:57 Visual evidence.

Pope Benedict continues to wear the Papal White and his Papal Ring. Pope Benedict was asked, ‘why do you still wear,’ after he had faux-abdicated and run off, ‘why do you continue to wear the Papal White?’ And the answer he gave was such a massive, bald-faced lie that the first thing that occurred to me was this has got to be a coded cry for help. Again, you don’t want to be a conspiracy theorist and all that, absolutely, but listen to what he said. He said there weren’t any black cassocks for him to wear. You announce your intention to abdicate three weeks before the effective date, so he announces on 11 February and the effective date is 8:00 pm on the 28th of February, so you’ve got basically three weeks here, and you live in Rome, a city that has more black cassocks than any city on the face of the earth. And you’re the Vicar of Jesus Christ on earth. You can’t pick up the phone and call one of the clerical outfitters, or whoever your personal tailor is, and say, look, I need a black cassock, presumably with red piping, or just a black cassock? It’s such a bald-faced lie that, in charity, one has to assume that he’s trying to signal. That he’s desperately trying to signal something. I’m wearing the Papal White because there weren’t any black cassocks for me to wear. He’s made this decision. This is his free choice. He could have gotten a full new wardrobe anytime he wanted in the past five and a half years, and yet every day he gets on and he puts on the Papal White. He gets up and he puts on the Papal White. And he continues to wear his Papal Ring.

0:58:11 Pope Benedict retains his Papal name, Pope Benedict.

This is breaking all previous precedent and also the wearing of the Papal White. That also breaks all previous precedent. In previous precedent, whenever a Pope would resign, he gave up every physical indication of the Papacy. He reverted to black, he dropped, of course, the Papal name, he reverted to being Cardinal so-and-so, or Bishop so-and-so, or Abbot so-and-so, whatever it was, so that there would be absolutely no confusion about anything. And then he went very far away. So, Pope Benedict retains his Papal name, he’s called Pope Benedict, and his Papal Style. The Papal Style is the courtesy title that someone is given and in the case of the Pope it’s Your Holiness/His Holiness/Holiness. He is still called, all day every day, His Holiness Pope Benedict, or His Holiness Pope Emeritus, but as we’ve talked about, the whole notion of a Pope Emeritus is completely false. Non-existent. It’s a fiction. He’s chosen this. He could have said get me a black cassock and go back to calling me Cardinal Ratzinger, Archbishop Ratzinger, whatever he wanted. He could’ve reverted to that. Did he do that? Does he do that? No. Every day he gets up and he retains these visible signs of the Petrine Office.

0:59:46  Pope Benedict continues to reside in the Vatican, completely unprecedented.

All resigned Popes, they would either go away completely voluntarily, never to be seen again. They would go check into a monastery somewhere, and they would never be seen publicly again, or they were chased out. A lot of times these were completely contentious situations, and the Pope would be chased out, and sometimes he was even imprisoned. Pope Benedict could’ve gone anywhere. In fact, he was on the record before all of this happened in February of 2013, as saying that all he wanted to do before he was elected Pope in 2005, his big, grand plan was he wanted to go back to Bavaria. He wanted to live in a little house with his brother, Georg Ratzinger, and their sister, who was alive at the time, and his cat, and play the piano, and write, and live out the rest of his life like that. Why didn’t he do that? He could have. Why didn’t he do it? Why is he still living inside the Vatican and making public appearances as the Pope? We have this incredible visual evidence. It’s right in front of us. …

Bergoglian Antipapacy Video Transcript

5. Other signals Pope Benedict XVI gives.

The pope’s signature is usually in the format “NN. PP. x”  (Supreme Pontiff)  (Pastor Pastorum)

From  Antonio Socci  of Church Militant:

https://www.churchmilitant.com/news/article/pope-francis-church-that-goes-out-is-goingoutof-catholicism

“… The signals he gives are always discreet, but clear and comforting. Not only by means of powerful interventions like the document he issued last April, but also by recalling that he – that is, the pope – is there and Catholics should not feel that they are orphans.

The latest (truly beautiful) book which Ratzinger has published, “Per Amore,” does not carry on its cover the title “Pope Emeritus” but the firm signature “Benedetto PP XVI.” These initials “PP” stand for “Pastor Pastorum” (or Pater Patrum), which is the title and prerogative of the reigning pontiff. “

Antonio Socci, also mentions in this article his “coat of arms”

Socci says:

“There are those who believe that by a mysterious design of Divine Providence, the Church is being subjected to a very harsh trial, its own Good Friday, but that the presence of Benedict guarantees that She will not be shipwrecked. Certainly Benedict is central in the Church today. And one day everything will become clearer. “

________________________________

Bro. Alexis Bugnolo states (see link below):

“Notice the facts, which are indisputable:

  1. Benedict is dressed as the Pope.
  2. All continue to treat him as the Pope.
  3. He is given official escort as a Head of State by the Italian Republic
  4. He flies, not to Munich, where his brother lives, but to Castel Gandolfo, the private residence of THE POPE.

Any objective observer must therefore conclude, that he remains the Pope, and is signaling that he remains the Pope. Because he is acting as the Pope, retiring from a Vatican that no longer wants him, but NOT as a Pope who has just resigned the Papacy.

________________________________

It’s no wonder then, that  the “pretend pope” (Francis) got angry about the recent book by  PBXVI and Card. Sarah!

His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI may not seem to speak up very often, and it must be so difficult to do so, while he is constantly being watched, but he still certainly makes his presence felt!

He might be old, but his very presence must be a thorn in the side of the enemy!
