And so I solemnly declare to you this day
that I am not responsible for the blood of any of you,
for I did not shrink from proclaiming to you the entire plan of God…
So be vigilant and remember that for three years, night and day,
I unceasingly admonished each of you with tears.
(First Mass readings this week)

HIS army division was to liberate the last of the three concentration camps in Germany.

Charles J. Palmeri was serving with the United States Rainbow Division when a couple of sergeants, who had already been to Dachau, told him what they saw there. But he replied, “This couldn’t happen. Nobody would do that.” The next day, April 29th, 1945, his division entered the camp.

The first thing we saw were about 30 railroad cars just loaded with dead bodies… Then, we got into the camp, and there were bodies piled, naked bodies—men and women and even some children… What disturbed me more than the dead—and the dead did bother me, obviously—were the people who were still alive, wandering around and traumatized… They could hardly walk, and their legs were thinner than rails. Columbia magazine, May 2020, p. 27

Three years before, a foreign Jew known as Moishe the Beadle, was ordered to leave his town of Sighet. Rounded up by Hungarian police into cattle cars, they were taken across the border into Poland. Suddenly, the train stopped.

The Jews were ordered to get off and onto waiting trucks. The trucks headed toward a forest. There everybody was ordered to get out. They were forced to dig huge trenches. When they had finished their work, the men from the Gestapo began theirs. Without passion or haste, they shot their prisoners, who were forced to approach the trench one by one and offer their necks. Infants were tossed into the air and used as targets for the machine guns.Night by Elie Weisel, p. 6

But a wounded Moishe managed to escape, showing up months later in Sighet. Day and night, he warned the villagers that the Germans were coming for all the Jews, and what the Nazis’ intentions were. But few believed him or the stories.

Annihilate an entire people? Wipe out a population dispersed throughout so many nations? So many millions of people! By what means? In the middle of the twentieth century! —p. 8

The Germans finally did come and occupy their town, but even then, the people said this was for “strategic reasons, for political reasons.” The German soldiers said little, were polite and smiled from time to time. One German officer even brought chocolates. The optimists were jubilant: “Well? What did we tell you? …There they are, your Germans. What do you say now? Where is their famous cruelty?” Yes, the Germans were already in town, the Fascists were already in power, the verdict was already out—and the Jews of Sighet were still smiling.

Then one day, the synagogues closed. “Almost every rabbi’s home became a house of prayer,” recounts Wiesel. “We drank, we ate, we sang.” But then, in the blink of an eye, the arrests began. People could not leave their homes. Moishe the Beadle came running to Weisel’s house:

“I warned you,” he shouted. 

Then came the seizure of personal goods; then the yellow stars; then the ghettos… and then, cattle cars. The journey for the Jews of Sighet ended in Auschwitz.

 

THE CONSPIRACY AGAINST LIFE

My dear brothers and sisters, for 15 years I have sat at this desk writing you week after week to prepare you for the hour which has now arrived. And not only I: watchmen around the world, often at the cost of their reputations, careers, and relationships, have been warning of the times through which we are now passing. 

If this were 1942, it would be the time of the “Moishies” who are crying out that a true conspiracy against life is unfolding—men like Pope St. John Paul II:

This culture is actively fostered by powerful cultural, economic and political currents which encourage an idea of society excessively concerned with efficiency. Looking at the situation from this point of view, it is possible to speak in a certain sense of a war of the powerful against the weak: a life which would require greater acceptance, love and care is considered useless, or held to be an intolerable burden, and is therefore rejected in one way or another. A person who, because of illness, handicap or, more simply, just by existing, compromises the well-being or life-style of those who are more favoured tends to be looked upon as an enemy to be resisted or eliminated. In this way a kind of “conspiracy against life” is unleashed. Evangelium Vitae,  n. 12

Ah, but “This couldn’t happen. Nobody would do that!”

But the watchmen continue to shout that, this time, the agents of this conspiracy are not in jackboots armed with machine guns, but are politicians, judges, philanthropists and compromised scientists who are carrying out this “war of the powerful.”

A unique responsibility belongs to health-care personnel: doctors, pharmacists, nurses, chaplains, men and women religious, administrators and volunteers. Their profession calls for them to be guardians and servants of human life. In today’s cultural and social context, in which science and the practice of medicine risk losing sight of their inherent ethical dimension, health-care professionals can be strongly tempted at times to become manipulators of life, or even agents of death.Evangelium Vitae, n. 89

“Our pharmaceuticals and vaccines being used to sicken, sterilize or kill us? This couldn’t happen. Nobody would do that!”[1]

But the watchmen continue to cry out, night and day, that there is a reason so many are getting sick, so many are dying: science has lost its soul and medicine its morality.

On this point, scientific research itself seems to be almost exclusively preoccupied with developing products which are ever more simple and effective in suppressing life…Evangelium Vitae, n. 13

“No, you are a crazy conspiracy theorist!” wail the skeptics and fact-checkers. “This couldn’t happen. Nobody would do that.”

But the watchmen stand their ground, maintain their posts, and shout all the louder:

We think of the great powers of the present day, of the anonymous financial interests which turn men into slaves, which are no longer human things, but are an anonymous power which men serve, by which men are tormented and even slaughtered. They are a destructive power, a power that menaces the world. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Reflection after the reading of the office for the Third Hour this morning in the Synod Aula, Vatican City, October 11, 2010

“What anonymous interests? Secret Societies? Freemasons? The Deep State? Oh please… This couldn’t happen. Nobody would do that.”

And so, as the churches closed, food lines grew, and they forced many to wear masks… as the walls of good science tumbled and plexiglass dividers rose… as social-distancing rules forced neighbours apart and the sick were left to die alone Many simply said, this is for “strategic reasons, medical reasons.” Alas, many homes became houses of prayer. They drank, they ate, they sang. “Soon, it will be all over,” they chimed as they turned on another Netflix rerun.

But the watchmen (who included the voices of ethical scientists and dedicated medical doctors) cried out that quarantining the healthy was neither strategically smart nor medically sound. That the resulting collapse of the economy, disruption of the food chain, and destabilization of nations would have far more devastating consequences.

I am deeply concerned that the social, economic and public health consequences of this near-total meltdown of normal life—schools and businesses closed, gatherings banned—will be long-lasting and calamitous, possibly graver than the direct toll of the virus itself. The stock market will bounce back in time, but many businesses never will. The unemployment, impoverishment and despair likely to result will be public health scourges of the first order. —Dr. David Katz, an American physician and founding director of the Yale University Prevention Research Centre; europost.eu

There is more than meets the eye, the watchmen warned. This was a Pandemic of Control long planned and in the making. The global “philanthropists”, under the veil of “health care”, are actually population control eugenicists.[2] Their funding of research into synthetic pharmaceuticals, genetic modification of food and agricultural, and “climate change” are more about control of the very cornerstones of human life than preserving it.[3]

“This couldn’t happen,” said the brainwashed. “Nobody would do that,” echoed the status quo.

“Oh, yes they would,” said the watchmen. “And they are—with a smile.”

We see how evil wishes to dominate the world and that it is necessary to enter into battle with evil. We see how it does so in so many ways, bloody, with the different forms of violence, but also masked with goodness, and precisely this way, destroying the moral foundations of society. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, May 22, 2012, Vatican City

And so, as the contact tracers armed with smartphones and documentation that could force quarantine, spread throughout the neighbourhoods;[4] as plans for mandatory vaccination and digital ID’s for every person on earth developed on the Internet;[5] as designer masks began popping up on the web and social-distancing reminders on the radio became the norm; as the move toward a cashless society advanced and a 5G network raced into existence that could track every civilian on earth in real-time… the watchmen warned that the plan is no longer hidden. It no longer needs to be. The entire planet, including the Catholic Church, acquiesced without so much as a whimper. Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Banks… all are combining with break-neck speed to implement a New World Order—and boasting about it at every turn.

At this period… the partisans of evil seems to be combining together, and to be struggling with united vehemence, led on or assisted by that strongly organized and widespread association called the Freemasons. No longer making any secret of their purposes, they are now boldly rising up against God Himself. —POPE LEO XIII, Humanum Genus, Encyclical on Freemasonry, n.10, Apri 20thl, 1884

It is Communism with a different hat and painted-on smile. It has simply been waiting in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to emerge.

A great revolution is waiting for us. The crisis doesn’t only make us free to imagine other models, another future, another world. It obliges us to do so. —Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy, September 14th, 2009; unnwo.org; cf. The Guardian

THE FINAL PREPARATIONS

Penny Lea recounts the story of a German Christian who lived near the railroad tracks at the time of World War II. He told her that they knew that when the train whistle blew, it would be followed shortly with the cries of Jews packed into cattle cars.

It was so terribly disturbing! We could do nothing to help these poor miserable people, yet their screams tormented us. We knew exactly at what time that whistle would blow, and we decided the only way to keep from being so disturbed by the cries was to start singing our hymns. By the time that train came rumbling past the church yard, we were singing at the top of our voices. If some of the screams reached our ears, we’d just sing a little louder until we could hear them no more. Years have passed and no one talks about it much anymore, but I still hear that train whistle in my sleep. I can still hear them crying out for help. God forgive all of us who called ourselves Christians, yet did nothing to intervene.repentamerica.com/singalittlelouder.html

The truth is that the vast majority want to simply sing a little louder when they’re told about the “conspiracy against life” that is culminating now in our “culture of death” in real time. They can’t believe that there are powerful men who are investing billions to not only reduce population growth, but the actual population itself. They refuse to believe that we are being corralled like cattle into a global governance that will surveil, track, and permit (or not permit) us to participate in society—a system that looks remarkably similar to the reign of an antichrist as described in the thirteenth chapter of Revelation.

“This couldn’t happen. Nobody would do that!”

But both the popes and Heaven have been warning us for years that this is indeed the case. And yet…

…we don’t hear God because we don’t want to be disturbed, and so we remain indifferent to evil…. ‘the sleepiness’ is ours, of those of us who do not want to see the full force of evil and do not want to enter into His Passion. —POPE BENEDICT XVI, Catholic News Agency, Vatican City, Apr 20, 2011, General Audience

The Passion of the Church.[6]

We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through… We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel, of Christ versus the anti-Christ… It is a trial… of 2,000 years of culture and Christian civilization, with all of its consequences for human dignity, individual rights, human rights and the rights of nations. —Cardinal Karol Wojtyla (JOHN PAUL II ), at the Eucharistic Congress, Philadelphia, PA; August 13, 1976; cf. Catholic Online (confirmed by Deacon Keith Fournier who was in attendance)

Brothers and sisters, the Lord warned me in the recesses of my heart for many years that the “time is short.” But since the worldwide closure of churches earlier this year, I now hear every day:

You are out of time.

I can’t say for certain what this means. Except that this is not a time of “getting back to normal” but a summer of preparation for the definitive “breaking of the seals” of Revelation (see the Timeline). If you’re wondering when those next “box cars” are coming, well, they’re already piling up. The economic collapse that is coming is already being felt with business closures, bankruptcies and mass layoffs. In New York alone, some 100,000 businesses have permanently closed.[7] Boeing just laid off 12,000.[8] Farmers are going bankrupt[9] as unemployment soars.[10] Food shortages, predicted in March, are already being felt around the globe.[11] Locusts in Africa and Asia are now into the second wave and twenty-times worse, putting several nations at risk of famine.

The world will not get a chance to breathe anymore. The ferocity of crises are increasing, and they’re not going to be spaced out. —Sunita Narain of New Delhi’s Center for Science and Environment; Associated Press

[12] In the West, a third of Americans now show signs of clinical anxiety.[13]Some hospitals are beginning to report that there are more suicides due to COVID-19 quarantining than deaths from the actual virus.[14] Catholic Churches are continuing to be suppressed with fewer privileges than restaurants and casinos.[15] And the war drums between China and America are getting louder.[16]

Where is all of this going? The following message, allegedly from Our Lady to the seer Gisella Cardia in Italy, is consistent with the prophetic consensus of the past century or more, and that of many living seers today as well as my writings here:

My beloved, thank you for being united in prayer and for having listened to my call in your hearts. Soon, very soon, the Illumination [the Warning] will come, which will put you in a state of ecstasy* that will last around 15 minutes; behold, the sky will turn a fiery red—you will then hear a very loud roar, but do not fear, because this will be the announcement that the Son of God is about to arrive.** My beloved children, these are the times when the Antichrist is about to make his entrance. Later on I will give you other instructions. Beloved children, do not pray only in order to ask [for things], but also in order to thank my Son Jesus for your peace and your lives. I love you, children, I will always be next to you. Remember that after the quiet the Storm will come. Pray for the powerful so that God would have mercy on them. Pray for the Church and for priests. Now I bless you in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. May 26th, 2020; go to countdowntothekingdom.com to read the footnotes *

How soon? I don’t know. But clearly, events are unfolding at an incredible pace now—the closer we get to the Eye of the Storm. Gisella is not the only seer saying that the Warning is “very soon” (I have heard two others, one privately, and another one ..). That said, this seems to be Our 1942… the moment of denial, beginning of chaos, and state control before the appearance of a false savior.

…if we study but a moment the signs of the present time, the menacing symptoms of our political situation and revolutions, as well as the progress of civilization and the increasing advance of evil, corresponding to the progress of civilization and the discoveries in the material order, we cannot fail to foresee the proximity of the coming of the man of sin, and of the days of desolation foretold by Christ.  — Fr. Charles Arminjon (1824-1885), The End of the Present World and the Mysteries of the Future Life, p. 58; Sophia Institute Press

This trial, though, will be short, according to Scripture.[17] Then will come Our 1945: the moment of liberation when the face of the earth will be renewed and the memories of these days of sorrow, social-distancing, dehumanizing, and destruction will begin to fade.

…it will be men themselves who will provoke the imminent conflict, and it will be I Myself who will destroy the forces of evil to draw good from all this, and it will be the Mother, most holy Mary, who will crush the head of the serpent, thus beginning a new era of peace; IT WILL BE THE ADVENT OF MY KINGDOM UPON EARTH. It will be the return of the Holy Ghost for a new Pentecost. It will be my merciful love that will defeat Satan’s hatred. It will be truth and justice that will prevail over heresy and over injustice; it will be the light that will put to flight the darkness of hell. —Jesus to Fr. Ottavio Michelini, a priest, mystic, and member of the Papal Court of Pope St. Paul VI; December 9, 1976; countdowntothekingdom.com

Dear children! Pray with me for a new life for all of you. In your hearts, little children, you know what needs to be changed. Return to God and His Commandments, so that the Holy Spirit may change your lives and the face of this earth, which is in need of renewal in the spirit. Little children, be prayer for all those who do not pray; be joy for all those who do not see the way out; be carriers of light in the darkness of this peaceless time. Pray and seek the help and protection of the saints so that you also could yearn for Heaven and Heavenly realities. I am with you and am protecting and blessing all of you with my motherly blessing. Thank you for having responded to my call. —Our Lady of Medjugorje to Marija, May 25th, 2020; countdowntothekingdom.com

 

Connecting the dots … Part 3: PF, Liberation Theology and Freemasonry

AM+DG

What is Liberation Theology? Why is it a problem?

“A little more than a year into his papacy, Pope Francis seems to be speaking loudest about economic injustice, alternatively denouncing “trickle-down” economics and calling over and over again for a “poor church for the poor.” ...

Broadly speaking, liberation theology is a social and political movement within the church that attempts to interpret the gospel of Jesus Christ through the lived experiences of oppressed people.

(The most controversial aspect of it,) “was that some strains of liberation theology used Marxist economic theory, applying it to the gospel. In this interpretation, Jesus becomes the “liberator” and always is firmly on the side of the poorest of the poor. Because of this preference for the poor, liberation theology often calls for reorganization of social, governmental, and economic structures so that the poor are not merely cared for, but brought into the fullness of human flourishing. …

The seminal work on liberation theology was written by Dominican Father Gustavo Gutiérrez in 1971. A Theology of Liberation gave the movement its name, and emphasized the church’s mission to those on the periphery of society….

In 1984 the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, led at the time by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, condemned liberation theology because of its use of Marxist principles and its association with political movements.  From https://www.uscatholic.org/articles/201410/what-liberation-theology-29433

Pope Francis is a fan!

Prophecy:

They will use the message of humanism, love of one another, in terms of your ability to look after the poor, uneducated and needy, as a substitute for the Truth you were given in the Gospels.” – (Book of Truth: Nov. 9th, 2013 @ 11:48)

Freemasonry and the pope

 Pope Francis’ election sparked an almost jubilant outpouring of support and welcome from Freemasons around the world.  (www.masonicpressagency.blogspot.com),

Numerous popes have condemned freemasonry throughout the ages. Pope Leo XIII called freemasonry the “synagogue of Satan”.

A Satanic Religion in Disguise

Freemasonry is nothing more than Satanic worship – beautifully packaged as a “humanitarian” movement to unsuspecting victims.

 

Some quotes from Freemasons about Pope Francis:

  • On March 15, 2013, the website of the Virtual Grand Lodge of Italy, GLVDI, published a statement (though dated March 13, 2013) of Grand Master Luciano Nistri concerning the election of the new pope:

The Catholic Church has chosen as Pope the Jesuit Jorge Mario Bergoglio who assumed the name of Francis. A clear-cut choice, away from the logic of the Roman Curia and of the temporal power. From the first moment on, Pope Francis, a man who comes “nearly from the end of the world,” rejecting the ermine robe and gold cross and replacing it with an iron cross, made his first tangible act. In his first words of greeting he fostered a desire for dialogue with the world and with mankind, nurturing the vivid hope for laymen and nonbelievers that change is underway. Maybe this is really what the world expects and what it expected. A new Church that knows how to reconnect love with truth in a confrontation among institutions not entrenched in the defense of their own power. It is that same hope for which the world — and especially Latin America, where the Masons Simon Bolivar, Salvador Allende and the same Giuseppe Garibaldi [especially while in Brazil] among the many who have given liberty to those peoples — has always longed for.

A message that Freemasonry itself perceives a sharp break with the past and one which is turned now to listening to the poor, the marginalized and the weakest. To the new Pontiff we send our best wishes for his good work for years to come. Luciano Nistri, Grand Master GLVDI.”

  • On 14 March 2013, Gustavo Raffi, the Grand Master of the Grand Orient Lodge of Italy —saluted and praised the new Pontiff. Raffi said: Perhaps in the Church nothing will be as before.”

 

  • 13) In July 2013, commemorating his friend and late Cardinal Ersilio Tonini, the Grand Master Gustavo Raffi (Grand Orient of Italy) launched a new tribute to Pope Francis, saying:

Humanity today is poorer and poorer, as is also the Catholic Church. But the one of Pope Francis is a church that promises to be respectful of the otherness and to share the idea that the secular state promotes peace and coexistence of different religions”

  • On September 21, 2013, moreover, during the celebrations by the Freemasonry of the Grand Orient of Italy on the occasion of the recurrence of the 20th of September and of the Fall Equinox, the Grand Master Gustavo Raffi stated, inter alia:

Pope Francis launches messages of humanity that are in tune with what we have been saying for years. He also invites people to come out of the catacombs and not to withdraw but to witness among the different peoples to one’s own values [sic], in speaking to society. The reflections should not be limited to today but should build the future. This is a living Masonry, talking to people [in a dialogue]”

The 100 Year Plan of Masonry – Part 1

Part 1: Establishing the reign of the “god”  they   worship

In his 1989 publication, The New World Order(1), historian A. Ralph Epperson documents very clearly the essence and aims of Masonry, drawing on the actual writings of members themselves with 654 source references.

Principally featured is the work of the 33rd degree Freemason who is hailed as a genius: Albert Pike, a Grand High Wizard whose volume Morals and Dogma (2) is the definitive version of the beliefs of initiated Freemasons and Illuminati. His writing confirms beyond all shadow of doubt that the inner sanctum of this secret society worships none other than Lucifer himself, still parading as the angel of light, and that the Masonic lodges are indeed, as Pope Pius IX insisted, “the synagogue of Satan”.

According to other sources, Albert Pike in the late 1800s was given a series of visions by Lucifer which illustrated how he intended to establish his total reign in the world. This became a blueprint for the devil’s human followers to implement: the rich, the powerful, those dedicated to eradicating God’s Name from the face of the earth. Remember, this was the 19th century, a time when the first glimmerings of atheistic thought were emerging, psychology and science coming to the fore, when Karl Marx in 1848 was publishing his founding document of Communism, the political pamphlet Communist Manifesto, and when Darwin in 1859 produced Origin of the Species. So it was in the midst of this augmenting climate of modern, paganistic thinking that Albert Pike experienced his demonic revelations.

The absolute reign of Lucifer, Pike was shown, was to be inaugurated through three devastating world wars. The First World War was to cause people’s faith in God to totter, to rearrange the borders of Europe and bring down the Tsar of Holy Mother Russia so that Communism could take root there, a model of humanity’s planetary future.

Germany’s post-war humiliation would consequently prepare the way for another global conflict. This Second World War was to further the interests of Communism, expanding its borders to Eastern Europe, and establish the new state of Israel (somehow Israel’s existence is strategic in the complexity of coming events). By this time, too, both Masons and Communists would have begun their steady infiltration of the priesthood of the Catholic Church in order to dismantle this 2000 year old institution by degrees, from within (3) (4) (5) (6).

To be continued…

3. SCHOOL OF DARKNESS: Bella Dodd, first published June 1963. It tells Bella Dodd’s story as a Communist agent in America during the 1930s and 40s where one of her jobs was to encourage young radicals to enter the Roman Catholic seminaries. After her defection from the Communist Party in 1949, she converted to the Catholic faith and was baptized by Fulton Sheen in 1952 and testified that “I, myself, put 1,100 men into the priesthood with the idea that these men be ordained and then climb the ladder of influence to become bishops and monsignors to weaken the Church’s effectiveness against Communism.” She explained that Communism was “perpetrated by financiers to control the common man and advance world tyranny” and warned that the Church would soon undergo changes “so drastic you will no longer recognize the Catholic Church”.

4. ALTA VENDITA (The Permanent Instruction of Alta Vendita), first published 1859, republished by Denis Fahey in 1950 as “The Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked as the Secret Power Behind Communism”. This Freemasonic document outlines the blueprint for the subversion of the Catholic Church, produced by the highest lodge of the Italian Carbonari. It states that “In a 100 year’s time bishops and priests will think they are marching behind the banner of the Keys of St Peter when in fact they will be following our flag. The reforms will have to be brought about in the name of obedience.” This is now reprinted under the authorship of John Vennari, Tan Books & publishers, 1999.

This is the personal diary discovered by a nurse in the 1960s which exposes the life of a communist who entered the priesthood with the intention to subvert and destroy the Church; his code number was AA 1025.

6. IN GOD’S NAME: David Yallop, published by Jonathan Cape Ltd 1984. There is a chapter in this investigative book, The Thirty Three Days, covering the brief papacy of John Paul I, pp 231-307 (Corgi paperback version), revealing the Masonic presence in the Vatican during the 1970s. Several high-ranking cardinals were actually exposed in the Italian newspapers at the time. One in particular, Cardinal Jean Villot, was Secretary of State, the Holy See’s equivalent of a Prime Minister, a position created to deal with diplomatic issues that has assumed more power and influence since Vatican II. It was during this period that Pope Paul VI made his famous remark that the smoke of Satan had entered the Church. When Cardinal Villot died there were papers found in his suite from the upper echelons of the Masonic Order congratulating him on all he had achieved during his term of office, and these papers were witnessed by Fr Paul Kramer who detailed them in his excellently-researched, insightful book, The Devil’s Final Battle. Cardinal Villot has been succeeded by fellow Masons who, along with the Roman Curia, now exercise greater dominion than the pontiff. When first elected, Benedict XVI said of this administrative body of prelates, “Pray for me that I may not flee for fear of the wolves”. Both he and John Paul II, for instance, have had their hands tied by the Secretary of State in the matter of specifically consecrating Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Apparently there are twenty Cardinals currently in key positions within the Vatican who are Masons. These quite possibly are the ones who can be seen in a well-aired piece of video footage where they refuse to shake hands with Benedict in his last days as Pope as he moves down the line of Cardinals. A number of bishops and cardinals in European states today openly admit their allegiance to Masonry.
