Condemning Himself to Hell Every Day, part two
[As noted on the home page, there are two important posts on Novus Ordo Wire that I want to bring to the attention of this site's readership.
[The first has to do with the publication of an English translation of Saint Robert Bellarmine's Defense of Popes Said to Have Erred in Faith that has been published by Mediatrix Press. This is a major contribution that provides yet another refutation of the false contention that thre have been "heretical popes" or popes who have fallen into error. This is not so. Saint Robert Bellarmine's documentation gives those in the false "resist while recognize" another blow to their claim of representing the truth of either Church history or doctrine. Truth alone is what matters, not holding on to positions that deny the spotlessness of Holy Mother Church in her doctrines and liturgical rites. It is time for the old cliches and shopworn semantic devices to keep Catholics attached to the structures of a false religious sect that is the counterfeit ape of the Catholic Church to be buried once and for all.
[The second Novus Ordo Watch post post deals with a very important publication that I have been meaning to promote for some time now. I have no excuse for not doing so other than the continuing minor health challenges that make it very difficult to work into the overnight hours and then recover quickly thereafter. It is thus with apologies to Mr. Timothy Duff and to the readership of this site that I hereby link to an excellent description of Mr. Duff's New English Edition of The Mystical City of God, which has been published in a very readable book format. Mr. Duff's new English Edition of the Venerable Mary of Agreda's The Mystical City of God's online version has been used in seveal articles on this site. Mr. Duff has performed a great service to Our Lady and to souls by laboring so hard and so long to bring this work to conclusion. Please remember him and his large Catholic family in your prayers, remembering also the deceased members of his family. Thank you.]
Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s recent blasphemous heresy uttered against the Omnipotence of God while yet again posing a false dichotomy between God’s love and His mercy for us erring sinners has not generated the degree of anguished concern on the part of the Girondists/Mensheviks whose noses were bent out of shape at “Synod ’15,” which closed up shop on Sunday, October 25, 2015, the Feast of Christ the King.
This is not surprising as the “conservative” conciliar revolutionaries have been participants in all manner of blasphemous “inter-religious” events during their own careers as purveyors of the false ecclesiology, false ecumenism and episcopal collegiality, noting also their roles as champions of “religious liberty” and “separation of Church and State.” There is very little that needs to be said about the “courage” of the Girondists/Mensheviks as the Argentine Apostate uses them as foils so that he play to the mob whose itching ears he loves to tickle.
After all, those who remain silent about blasphemies are as guilty of blasphemy as those who utter it or cause it to be put into the printed word.
But it is vain for them to adopt the name of catholic, as they do not oppose these blasphemies: they must believe them, if they can listen so patiently to such words. (Pope Saint Leo the Great, Epistle XIV, To Anastasius, Bishop of Thessalonica, St. Leo the Great | Letters 1-59 )
The silence of the "conservative" "cardinals," "bishops" and traditionally-minded priests/presbyters is deafeaning, many of whom choose not to defend the honor and majesty and glory of the Most Blessed Trinity in order to retain their status in false religious sect that has been headed by heretics from its very inception.
Well, what I would like to in this commentary, is to contrast Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s blasphemously heretical rejection of God’s omnipotence in exercising His Divine Justice upon those who persist to their dying breaths in grievous evil.
Part of the approach taken in this commentary has been based upon the dismissive comment made by “Archbishop” Paul-Andre Durocher of Gatineau, Quebec, People’s Republic of Trudeau, in the official Vatican press conference that was held on October 6, 2015, during the now-concluded “Synod ‘15”:
“To be quite honest, there might be differences of opinion on that,” he said. “Let’s be honest. Is that a question of doctrine or is that a question of discipline? I think that’s probably going to be one of the questions that will be debated in the small groups.”
"If you want doctrine, go read Denziger,” he added. (Synod Day 2: Doctrine apparently 'open question.)
Well, I do consult Denziger regularly, and have done so with great gladness in order to contrast Bergoglio’s blasphemous heresy against the Omnipotence of God with the dogmatic teaching of the Catholic Church from whose maternal bosom he long ago expelled himself.
It is with this in mind that I provide the Vatican Radio report of Bergoglio’s screed at Casa Santa Marta on Wednesday, October 28, 2015, the Feast of Saints Simon and Jude, before contrasting it with just a few dogmatic statements of the Catholic Church that included in Enchirdion Symbolorum, thirteenth edition, translated into English by Roy Deferrari and published in 1955 as The Sources of Catholic Dogma–referred to as “Denziger,” by B. Herder Book Company of St. Louis, Missouri, and London, England:
(Vatican Radio) Pope Francis says God can only love and not condemn and that love is His weakness and our victory. He said we are so closely bound to God’s love that nothing can sever us from it. That was the message at the heart of the Pope’s homily delivered on Thursday (29th October) at the Santa Marta residence.
Taking his cue from St Paul’s letter to the Romans, Pope Francis’s homily was a reflection on God’s unwavering love for us and how no person, or power or thing can separate us from this love. He said St Paul explains how Christians are the victors because “if God is for us, who can be against us.” This gift from God, he continued, is being held by Christians in their own hands and it’s almost as if they could say in a triumphalistic manner, “now we are the champions!” But the meaning is another: we are the victors not because we are holding this gift in our hands but for another reason. And that is because “nothing can ever separate us from God’s love which is in Jesus Christ our Lord.”
“It’s not because we are the victors over our enemies, over sin. No! We are so closely bound to God’s love that no person, no power, nothing can ever separate us from this love. Paul saw beyond the gift, he saw more, who is giving that gift: it is a gift of recreation, it’s a gift of regeneration in Jesus Christ. He saw God’s love. A love that cannot be explained.”
God’s impotence is His inability not to love
Pope Francis noted that every man, every woman can refuse this gift by preferring their own vanity, pride or sin but despite this God’s gift is always there for us.
“The gift is God’s love, a God who can’t sever himself from us. That is the impotence of God. We say: ‘God is all powerful, He can do everything!” Except for one thing: Sever Himself from us! In the gospel, that image of Jesus who weeps over Jerusalem, helps us understand something about that love. Jesus wept! He wept over Jerusalem and that weeping is all about God’s impotence: his inability to not love (us) and not sever himself from us.”
Our safeguard: God cannot condemn but only love
The Pope goes on to explain how Jesus’ weeping over Jerusalem that kills its prophets and those that announce its salvation is an image of God’s love and tenderness. He admonishes Jerusalem and all of us saying: “How often have I longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her brood under her wings and you refused!” He said that is why St Paul understands and can say: “I am certain of this: neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nothing already in existence and nothing still to come, nor any power, nor the heights nor the depths, nor any created thing whatever will be able to come between us and the love of God.”
“It’s impossible for God to not love us! And this is our safeguard. I can refuse that love, I can refuse just like the Good Thief did, until the end of his life. But that love was waiting for him there. The most wicked and the most blasphemous person is loved by God with the tenderness of a father. And just as Paul said, as the Gospel said, as Jesus said: ‘Like a hen with her brood.’ And God the all-powerful, the Creator can do everything: God weeps! All of God’s love is contained in this weeping by Jesus over Jerusalem and in those tears. God weeps for me when I move away from him: God weeps for each one of us: God weeps for the evil people who do so many bad things, cause so much harm to mankind… He is waiting, he is not condemning (us) and he is weeping. Why? Because he loves (us)!” (God can only love and not condemn.)
The first citation is from the final part of the Athanasian Creed, Quicumque, which explains that “they who indeed have done evil” go “into eternal fire.” This is quite a “body blow,” shall we say,” to Bergoglio’s contention that God does not condemn, thereby posing a false conflict between God’s Mercy and Justice:
So that in all things, as is aforesaid, the trinity in Unity and the Unity in Trinity is to be worshipped. He therefore who wills to be in a state of salvation, let him think thus of the Trinity.
But it is necessary to eternal salvation that he also believe faithfully the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ. The right faith therefore is that we believe and confess that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man.
He is God of the substance of the Father begotten before the worlds, and He is man of the substance of His mother born in the world; perfect God, perfect man subsisting of a reasoning soul and human flesh; equal to the Father as touching His Godhead, inferior to the Father as touching His Manhood.
Who although He be God and Man yet He is not two but one Christ; one however not by conversion of the GodHead in the flesh, but by taking of the Manhood in God; one altogether not by confusion of substance but by unity of Person. For as the reasoning soul and flesh is one man, so God and Man is one Christ.
Who suffered for our salvation, descended into hell, rose again from the dead, ascended into heaven, sits at the right hand of the Father, from whence He shall come to judge the living and the dead. At whose coming all men shall rise again with their bodies and shall give account for their own works. And they that have done good shall go into life eternal, and they who indeed have done evil into eternal fire.
This is the catholic faith, which except a man shall have believed faithfully and firmly he cannot be in a state of salvation. (The Creed Quicumque, which is called “Athanasian”, as found in Henry Denzinger, Enchirdion Symbolorum, thirteenth edition, translated into English by Roy Deferrari and published in 1955 as The Sources of Catholic Dogma–referred to as “Denziger,” by B. Herder Book Company of St. Louis, Missouri, and London, England, No. 2295, pp. 15-16.)
Yes, God condemns souls to hell for all eternity, noting yet again that He so loves human free will that He will permit men to choose hell for all eternity if they do not choose for Him in life by dying a state of final perdition. He pronounces the sentence of condemnation that impenitent sinners have earned by their evil deeds.
Note should also be taken of the fact that Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s own chances of being saved are, objectively speaking, in great jeopardy as he does not believe faithfully and firmly the entirety of the Catholic Faith.
The next citation is a pronouncement made by Pope Vigilius in 537 A.D. that refutes Bergoglio’s blasphemous heresy that God is somehow lacking the power to pronounce a sentence of condemnation on unrepentant sinners at their Particular Judgment.
Canon 8. If anyone says or holds that the power of God is limited, and that He has accomplished as much as He has comprehended, let him be anathema.
Canon 9. If anyone says or holds that the punishment of the demons and of impious men is temporary, and that it will have an end at some time, that is to say, there will be a complete restoration of the demons or of impious men, let him be anathema. (Pope Vigilius, Canons Against Origen, 537 A.D., Denziger, p. 85.)
As those familiar with the writings of the one of the Hegelian fathers of the “new theology” in whose cradle Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI was nurtured will recognize, Pope Vigilius’s “Canons Against Origen” is also a condemnation of the beliefs of the late Father Hans Urs von Balthasar, who believed that Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ and satan would be “reconciled” in the end. Not so. Heresy. The demons and the souls impious are in hell forever. Blasphemers who make light of the reality of God’s Divine Justice, if not denying it altogether, will be the victims of their own mocking tongues for all eternity in hell unless they abjure their errors and convert to the true Faith before they die.
The hapters of the Council of Quiersy, which was a series of five councils between 853 and 858 A.D. held in Quiersy, Gaul, that condemn Bergoglio’s Modernist belief in a God Who is “impotent” Enchirdion Symbolorum also includes the cto do anything but “love” as though it is somehow contrary to His omnipotence, which the this intellectual mess of an apostate both limited and acknowledged in the same “homily”:
Chap. 1. Omnipotent God created man noble without sin with a free will, and he whom He wished to remain in the sanctity of justice, He placed in Paradise. Man using his free will badly sinned and fell, and became the “mass of perdition” of the entire human race. The just and good God, however, chose from this same mass of perdition according to His foreknowledge those whom through grace He presdestined to life [Rom. 8:29 ff.; Eph. 1:11], and He predestined for these eternal life; the others, whom by the judgment of justice he left in the mass of perdition, however, He knew would perish, but He did not predestine that they would perish, because His just; however, He predestined eternal punishment for them. And, on account of this we speak of only one predestination of God, which pertains either to the gift of grace or to the retribution of justice.
Chap. 2. The freedom of will which we lost in the first man, we have received back through Christ our Lord; and we have free will for good, preceded and aided by grace, and we have free will for evil, abandoned by grace. Moreover, because freed by grace and by grace healed from corruption, we have free will.
Chap. 3. Omnipotent God wishes all men to without exception to be saved [1. Tim. 2:4] although not all will be saved. However, that certain ones are saved, is the gift of the one who saves; that certain ones perish, however, is the deserved punishment of those who perish.
Chap. 4. Christ Jesus our Lord, as no man who is or has been or ever will be whose nature will not have been assumed in Him, so there is, has been, or will be no man, for whom He has not suffered; although not all will be saved by the mystery of His passion. Because all are not redeemed by the mystery of His passion, He does not regard the greatness and the fullness of the price, but He regards the part of the unfaithful ones and those not believing in faith those things which he has worked through love [Gal 5:6], because the drink of human safety, which has been prepared by our infirmity and by divine strength, has indeed in itself that it may be beneficial to all; but if it is not drunk, it does not heal. (Council of Quiersy, Gaul, 853 A.D., Denziger, pp. 126-127.)
The Fourth Council of Valence in Gaul issued a similar doctrinal statement concerning the coexistence of God’s divine foreknowledge and human free will, including the fact that God has known from all eternity that evil doers will suffer eternal punishment in hell:
Can 2. We faithfully hold that “God foreknows and has foreknown eternally both the good deeds which good men will do, and the evil which evil men will do,” because we have that word of Scripture which says: “Eternal God, who are the witness of all things hidden, who knew all things before they are” [Dan. 13:42]’ and it seems right to hold “that the good certainly have known through His grace that they would be good, and that through the same grace they would receive eternal rewards; that the wicked have known that through their own malice they would do evil deeds, and that through His justice they would be condemned by the eternal punishment”; so that according to the Psalmist: “Because power belongs to God and mercy to the Lord, so that He will render each man according to his works” [Ps. 61:1:12 f.], and as apostolic doctrine holds: “To them indeed, wo according to patience in good works, seek glory and honor and incorruption, eternal life; but to them that are contentious, and who obey not the truth, but give credit to iniquity, wrath and indignation, tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man doing evil” [Rom. 2:7 ff.]. In the same sense, the same one says everywhere: “In the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with angels of His power, in a flame of fire, giving vengeance to them who do not know God, and who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall suffer eternal punishment in destruction . . . when He shall come to be glorified in His Saints, and to be made wonderful in all them who have believed [II Thess. 1:7 ff.]. Certainly neither (do we believe] that the foreknowledge of God has placed a necessity on any wicked man, so that he cannot be different, but what that one would be from his own will, as God who knew all things before they are, He foreknew from His omnipotent and immutable Majesty. “Neither do we believe that anyone is condemned by a previous judgment on the part of God but by reason of his own iniquity.” Nor (do we believe) that the wicked perish because they were not able to be good; but because they were unwilling to be good, they have remained by their own vice I the mass of damnation by either reason of original sin or even by actual sin.”
Canon 3. But also it has seemed right concerning destination and truly it is right according to our apostolic authority which says: “Or has not the potter power over the clay, from the same lump, to make one vessel unto honor, but another unto dishonor?” [Rom. 9:21] where also he immediately adds: “What if God willing to show His wrath to make known His power, endured with much patience vessels of wrath fitted or prepared for destruction, so that He might show the riches of His grace on the vessels of mercy, which He has prepared unto glory” [Rom. 9:22 ff.]: faithfully we confess the predestination of the impious to death; in the election, moreover, of those who are to be saved, the mercy of God precedes the merited good. In the condemnation, however, of those who are to be lost, the evil which they have deserved precedes the just judgment of God. In predestination, however, (we believe) that God has determined those things which He Himself either in His gratuitous mercy or in His just judgment would do according to Scripture which says: “Who has done the things which are to be done” (Is. 45:11, LXX]; in regard to evil men, however, we believe that God, who sees all things, foreknew and predestined that their evil deserved the punishment which followed, because He is just, in whom, as Saint Augustine says, there is concerning all things everywhere so fixed a decree as a certain predestination. To this indeed he applies saying of Wisdom: “Judgments are prepared for scorners, and striking hammers for the bodies of fools [Prov. 19:29]. Concerning this unchangeableness of the foreknowledge of the predestination of God, through which in Him future things have already taken place, even in Ecclesiastes the saying is well understood: “I know that all the works which God has made continue forever. We cannot add anything, nor take away anything which God has made that He may be feared” [Eccles. 3:14]. “But we do not only not believe the saying that some have been predestined to evil by divine power,” namely as if they could not be different, “but even if there are those who wish to believe with such malice, with all detestation,” as the Synod of Orange, “we say anathema to them.” (Council of Valence, 855, Denziger, pp. 128-130.)
Obviously, this is a condemnation of the ethos of “universal salvation” that was promoted unapologetically by the late Father Hans Urs von Balthasar and a bit—and only a bit—more subtly by Karol Josef Wojtyla/John Paul II and Joseph Alois Ratzinger/Benedict XVI and of the heretic John Calvin’s recrudescence of predestinationism even hundred years after the Council of Valence. The canons of the Fourth Council of Valence also show that Bergoglio’s sappy belief that the souls of unrepentant sinners who die in a state of final perdition are not condemned to hell for all eternity is contrary to the Catholic Faith.
The Fourth Lateran Council, which met in 1215, issued a condemnation of the Albigensians and Waldensians that reminded Catholics both of the omnipotence of the Most Blessed Trinity and of the condemnation of impetitent sinners:
We firmly believe and openly confess that there is only one true God, eternal and immense, omnipotent, unchangeable, incomprehensible, and ineffable, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; three Persons indeed but one essense, substance, or nature absolutely simple; the Father (proceeding) from no one, but the Son from the Father only, and the Holy Ghost equally from both, always without beginning and end. The Father begetting, the Son begotten, and the Holy Ghost proceeding; consubstantial and coequal, co-omnipotent and coeternal, the one principle of the universe, Creator of all things invisible and visible, spiritual and corporeal, who from the beginning of time and by His omnipotent power made from nothing creatures both spiritual and corporeal, angelic, namely, and mundane, and then human, as it were, common, composed of spirit and body. The devil and the other demons were indeed created by God good by nature but they became bad through themselves; man, however, sinned at the suggestion of the devil. This Holy Trinity in its common essence undivided and in personal properties divided, through Moses, the holy prophets, and other servants gave to the human race at the most opportune intervals of time the doctrine of salvation.
And finally, Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God made flesh by the entire Trinity, conceived with the co-operation of the Holy Ghost of Mary ever Virgin, made true man, composed of a rational soul and human flesh, one Person in two natures, pointed out more clearly the way of life. Who according to His divinity is immortal and impassable, according to His humanity was made passable and mortal, suffered on the cross for the salvation of the human race, and being dead descended into hell, rose from the dead, and ascended into heaven. But He descended in soul, arose in flesh, and ascended equally in both; He will come at the end of the world to judge the living and the dead and will render to the reprobate and to the elect according to their works. Who all shall rise with their own bodies which they now have that they may receive according to their merits, whether good or bad, the latter eternal punishment with the devil, the former eternal glory with Christ. (Fourth Lateran Council, Against the Albigensians, Joachim, Waldensians, etc., 1215. A different translation is found at Denziger, pp. 168-169.
This doctrinal statement, issued by the Fourth Lateran Council, which was the twelfth general ecumenical council of the Catholic Church, that met under the infallible protection of the Third Person of the Most Blessed Trinity, God the Holy Ghost, condemns Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s false beliefs with great clarity. Then again, Bergoglio went to a Waldensian temple in Turin, Italy, on June 20, 2015, to apologize for the “harm” that had been done to these heretics in past centuries:
Pope Francis began his speech to representatives of the Italian Waldensian community with a brief personal remembrance of his previous meetings with the friends of the Waldensian Evangelical Church of Rio del Plata, when he was Archbishop of Buenos Aires. The Pope spoke of his appreciation of the “spirituality and faith” of those meetings, from which he “learned many good things.”
The rediscovery of fraternity notwithstanding the differences: a communion on a journey
The Pope went on to speak about the fruits of the ecumenical movement in recent years. The principle fruit, he said, “is the rediscovery of the fraternity that unites all those who believe in Jesus Christ and are baptized in His Name.” This, he said, “allows us to grasp the profound ties that already unite us, despite our differences. It concerns a communion that is still on a journey, which, with prayer, with continual personal and communal conversion, and with the help of the theologians, we hope, trusting in the action of the Holy Spirit, can become full and visible communion in truth and charity.”
The Catholic Church seeks forgiveness for past sins against Waldensians
“But the unity that is the fruit of the Holy Spirit,” the Pope said, “does not mean uniformity. Brothers have in common the same origin, but they are not identical among themselves.” Unfortunately, he continued, historically this diversity was not accepted and was a cause of violence and disputes “committed in the name of the faith itself.” This history, the Pope said, can only grieve us, who pray for the grace “to recognize that we are all sinners and to know to forgive one another.” He then asked for forgiveness for “the non-Christian attitudes and behaviour” of the Catholic Church against Waldensians.
Relations between Waldensians and Catholics now founded on mutual respect and fraternal charity
Pope Francis noted with satisfaction that today relations between Catholics and Waldensians are founded “on mutual respect and on fraternal charity,” as witnessed, for example, by the interconfessional translation of the Bible, pastoral arrangements for the celebration of mixed marriages, and the recent drafting of a joint appeal against violence against women, as well as other common initiatives.
Differences should not be an obstacle to collaboration in evangelization and in works
These steps, the Pope said, are an encouragement to continue this common journey. One of the primary areas that is open to the possibility of collaboration between Waldensians and Catholics, he said, is evangelization. Another is “that of service to humanity which suffers, to the poor, the sick, the migrants.” The differences that continue to exist between Catholics and Waldensians on important anthropological and ethical questions, the Pope said, should not prevent us from finding ways to collaborate in these and other fields: “If we journey together,” he said, “the Lord will help us to live that communion that precedes every contrast.” (Jorge visits Waldensian temple in Turin.)
In other words, Jorge Mario Bergoglio apologized for the work of God the Holy Ghost at the Fourth Lateran Council. He believes that heretics profess the same “basic” faith as the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church founded by Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. They do not. Then again, birds of a heretical feather do flock together, do not they not?
Although this might be an exercise in overkill, here is a reminder that the Protestants and the Orthodox are not members of the one and only Church of Christ that is the Catholic Church.
Protestantism, of course, has made possible the rise of the anti-Incarnational errors of Modernity with which the counterfeit church of conciliarism has made its “official reconciliation.” It is these anti-Incarnational errors of Modernity that misshaped the minds of so many Catholics, especially here in the United States of America as the heresy of Americanism is nothing other than a foundational cornerstone of the Modernist worldview, long before the rise of counterfeit church of conciliarism.
Conscious of the fact that Catholics were being led astray by the combined errors of Protestantism and Modernity, which is, of course, Judeo-Masonry, Pope Pius IX issued the following introduction to the Decree on Faith that was issued by the [First] Vatican Council on April 18, 1870:
3. Faith, declares the Apostle, is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen [17].
4. Nevertheless, in order that the submission of our faith should be in accordance with reason, it was God's will that there should be linked to the internal assistance of the Holy Spirit external indications of his revelation, that is to say divine acts, and first and foremost miracles and prophecies, which clearly demonstrating as they do the omnipotence and infinite knowledge of God, are the most certain signs of revelation and are suited to the understanding of all.
2. Now this redemptive providence appears very clearly in unnumbered benefits, but most especially is it manifested in the advantages which have been secured for the Christian world by ecumenical councils, among which the Council of Trent requires special mention, celebrated though it was in evil days.
3. Thence came 1. a closer definition and more fruitful exposition of the holy dogmas of religion and 2. the condemnation and repression of errors; thence too, 3. the restoration and vigorous strengthening of ecclesiastical discipline, 4. the advancement of the clergy in zeal for learning and piety, 5. the founding of colleges for the training of the young for the service of religion; and finally 6. the renewal of the moral life of the Christian people by a more accurate instruction of the faithful, and a more frequent reception of the sacraments. What is more, thence also came 7. a closer union of the members with the visible head, and an increased vigor in the whole mystical body of Christ. Thence came 8. the multiplication of religious orders and other organizations of Christian piety; thence too 9. that determined and constant ardor for the spreading of Christ's kingdom abroad in the world, even at the cost of shedding one's blood.
4. While we recall with grateful hearts, as is only fitting, these and other outstanding gains, which the divine mercy has bestowed on the Church especially by means of the last ecumenical synod, we cannot subdue the bitter grief that we feel at most serious evils, which have largely arisen either because the authority of the sacred synod was held in contempt by all too many, or because its wise decrees were neglected.
5. Everybody knows that those heresies, condemned by the fathers of Trent, which rejected the divine magisterium of the Church and allowed religious questions to be a matter for the judgment of each individual, have gradually collapsed into a multiplicity of sects, either at variance or in agreement with one another; and by this means a good many people have had all faith in Christ destroyed.
6. Indeed even the Holy Bible itself, which they at one time claimed to be the sole source and judge of the Christian faith, is no longer held to be divine, but they begin to assimilate it to the inventions of myth.
7. Thereupon there came into being and spread far and wide throughout the world that doctrine of rationalism or naturalism,—utterly opposed to the Christian religion, since this is of supernatural origin,—which spares no effort to bring it about that Christ, who alone is our lord and savior, is shut out from the minds of people and the moral life of nations. Thus they would establish what they call the rule of simple reason or nature. The abandonment and rejection of the Christian religion, and the denial of God and his Christ, has plunged the minds of many into the abyss of pantheism, materialism and atheism, and the consequence is that they strive to destroy rational nature itself, to deny any criterion of what is right and just, and to overthrow the very foundations of human society.
8. With this impiety spreading in every direction, it has come about, alas, that many even among the children of the Catholic Church have strayed from the path of genuine piety, and as the truth was gradually diluted in them, their Catholic sensibility was weakened. Led away by diverse and strange teachings [4] and confusing nature and grace, human knowledge and divine faith, they are found to distort the genuine sense of the dogmas which Holy mother Church holds and teaches, and to endanger the integrity and genuineness of the faith.
9. At the sight of all this, how can the inmost being of the Church not suffer anguish? For just as God wills all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth [5], just as Christ came to save what was lost [6] and to gather into one the children of God who were scattered abroad [7], so the Church, appointed by God to be mother and mistress of nations, recognizes her obligations to all and is always ready and anxious to raise the fallen, to steady those who stumble, to embrace those who return, and to strengthen the good and urge them on to what is better. Thus she can never cease from witnessing to the truth of God which heals all [8 ] and from declaring it, for she knows that these words were directed to her: My spirit which is upon you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth from this time forth and for evermore.[9]
10. And so we, following in the footsteps of our predecessors, in accordance with our supreme apostolic office, have never left off teaching and defending Catholic truth and condemning erroneous doctrines. But now it is our purpose to profess and declare from this chair of Peter before all eyes the saving teaching of Christ, and, by the power given us by God, to reject and condemn the contrary errors. This we shall do with the bishops of the whole world as our co-assessors and fellow-judges, gathered here as they are in the Holy Spirit by our authority in this ecumenical council, and relying on the word of God in Scripture and tradition as we have received it, religiously preserved and authentically expounded by the Catholic Church.
Yes, the Catholic Church always condemns errors and issues anathemas upon those who persist in their belief and propagation. The Catholic Church “can never cease from witnessing to the truth of God which heals all” and our true popes “have never left off teaching and defending Catholic truth and condemning erroneous doctrines.” True popes have a duty to “reject and condemn” errors that are contrary to the Sacred Deposit of Faith. The antipopes who have headed the counterfeit church of conciliarism reject condemnation of errors in favor of a Judeo-Masonic ethos of “universal brotherhood” and practical religious indifferentism that began with the opening address of Angelo Roncalli/John XXIII at the “Second” Vatican Council on October 11, 1962, the Feast of the Divine Maternity of the Blessed Virgin Mary:
In these days, which mark the beginning of this Second Vatican Council, it is more obvious than ever before that the Lord’s truth is indeed eternal. Human ideologies change. Successive generations give rise to varying errors, and these often vanish as quickly as they came, like mist before the sun.
The Church has always opposed these errors, and often condemned them with the utmost severity. Today, however, Christ’s Bride prefers the balm of mercy to the arm of severity. She believes that, present needs are best served by explaining more fully the purport of her doctrines, rather than by publishing condemnations.
Contemporary Repudiation Of Godlessness
Not that the need to repudiate and guard against erroneous teaching and dangerous ideologies is less today than formerly. But all such error is so manifestly contrary to rightness and goodness, and produces such fatal results, that our contemporaries show every inclination to condemn it of their own accord—especially that way of life which repudiates God and His law, and which places excessive confidence in technical progress and an exclusively material prosperity. It is more and more widely understood that personal dignity and true self-realization are of vital importance and worth every effort to achieve. More important still, experience has at long last taught men that physical violence, armed might, and political domination are no help at all in providing a happy solution to the serious problems which affect them.
A Loving Mother
The great desire, therefore, of the Catholic Church in raising aloft at this Council the torch of truth, is to show herself to the world as the loving mother of all mankind; gentle, patient, and full of tenderness and sympathy for her separated children. To the human race oppressed by so many difficulties, she says what Peter once said to the poor man who begged an alms: “Silver and gold I have none; but what I have, that I give thee. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, arise and walk.” In other words it is not corruptible wealth, nor the promise of earthly happiness, that the Church offers the world today, but the gifts of divine grace which, since they raise men up to the dignity of being sons of God, are powerful assistance and support for the living of a more fully human life. She unseals the fountains of her life-giving doctrine, so that men, illumined by the light of Christ, will understand their true nature and dignity and purpose. Everywhere, through her children, she extends the frontiers of Christian love, the most powerful means of eradicating the seeds of discord, the most effective means of promoting concord, peace with justice, and universal brotherhood. (Angelo Roncalli/ John XXIII ‘s Opening Address.)
Errors just sort of vanish away?
Go tell that to the Mother of God, who gave Saint Dominic de Guzman, the founder of the Order of Preachers of which Father Michele Ghislieri, the future Pope Saint Pius V, was a member, her Most Holy Rosary to fight the heresy of Albigensianism, which simply didn’t go away on its own.
One of the first bishops consecrated personally by Angelo Roncalli/John XXIII was Father Albino Luciani, the future “John Paul I,” on December 27, 1958, less than two months after his, Roncalli/John XXIII’s “election.” Is it any accident that Father Luciani had a view of error that was almost identical to that of Roncalli?
John Paul I is often portrayed as a humble, saintly prelate of the Church. His doctrinal stand was very questionable as evidenced by his pastoral letter of 1967 in which he advised his clergy to “see, if instead of uprooting and throwing down [error], it might be possible to trim and prune it patiently, bringing to light the core of goodness and truth which is not often lacking even in erroneous opinions” [Reference 839: Our Sunday Visitor, September 28, 2003, “Celebrating the Smiling Pope,” by Lori Pieper.] This is like a doctor telling his patient: “I won’t take out all the cancer; it might be good for you. (Fathers Francisco and Dominic Radecki, CMRI, Tumultuous Times, p. 530.)
As we know all too well by now, Jorge Mario Bergoglio, a true disciple of “Saint John XXIII,” keeps saying over and over again that this is “the time of mercy” as though it is not a fundamental act of mercy and charity to admonish and thus to correct the sinner.
Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s disbelief in a God Who condemns is quite hypocritical, of course, as a large percentage of his daily screeds at the Casa Santa Marta involve some degree of contempt and scorn being heaped upon those who hold to but mere semblances or vestiges of the Catholic Faith in all of Its Holy Integrity. It was just nine days ago that Bergoglio used his closing address at “Synod ‘15” to castigate the Girondist/Menshevik “bishops” who expressed even a restrained bit of opposition to his warfare against the binding precepts of the Sixth and Ninth Commandments:
Time does not permit a full cataloging of this monstrous Modernist’s attacks upon believing Catholics, which began almost as soon as he walked out on the balcony of the Basilica of Saint Peter on Wednesday evening, March 13, 2013, and has continued for the past thirty-one months, nineteen days. This paragon of false “mercy” had been merciless also with some traditionally-minded religious sisters in Argentina, whom his appointed overseer and “re-educator” forced them to watch impure videos. So much for those who used a variety of intellectually dishonest devices to try indemnify him during the early days of his tenure as the universal public face of apostasy.
Our true popes have condemned errors as they deemed it necessary to do so as they did not want to see the souls of the Catholic faithful succumb to their allurements and then be lost for all eternity in Hell. The conciliar “popes” embrace errors and condemn those who adhere to the Catholic Faith. Yet it is that “conservative” and traditionally-minded Catholics continue to adhere to the false conciliar sect as being the Catholic Church despite the fact that she is the spotless, virginal mystical spouse of her Divine Founder, Invisible Head and Mystical Bridegroom.
Pope Pius VI’s first encyclical letter, Inscrutabile, December 25, 1775, explained the necessity of identifying and condemning the errors that were beginning to coalesce into the Judeo-Masonic ethos of Modernity in which the United States of America and all other modern secular, religiously indifferentist states thereafter were formed:
We thought it useful to speak to you lovingly on these matters in order to strengthen your excellent resolve. But a much more serious subject demands that We speak of it, or rather mourn over it. We refer to the pestilent disease which the wickedness of our times brings forth. We must unite our minds and strength in treating this plague before it grows rife and becomes incurable in the Church through Our oversight. For in recent days, the dangerous times foretold by the Apostle Paul have clearly arrived, when there will be "men who love themselves, who are lifted up, proud, blasphemous, traitors, lovers of pleasure instead of God, men who are always learning but never arriving at the knowledge of truth, possessing indeed the appearance of piety but denying its power, corrupt in mind, reprobate about the faith." These men raise themselves up into "lying" teachers, as they are called by Peter the prince of the Apostles, and bring in sects of perdition. They deny the Lord who bought them and bring upon themselves swift destruction. They say they are wise and they have become fools, and their uncomprehending heart is darkened.
You yourselves, established as scouts in the house of Israel, see clearly the many victories claimed by a philosophy full of deceit. You see the ease with which it attracts to itself a great host of peoples, concealing its impiety with the honorable name of philosophy. Who could express in words or call to mind the wickedness of the tenets and evil madness which it imparts? While such men apparently intend to search out wisdom, "they fail because they do not search in the proper way. . . and they fall into errors which lead them astray from ordinary wisdom."[9] They have come to such a height of impiety that they make out that God does not exist, or if He does that He is idle and uncaring, making no revelation to men. Consequently it is not surprising that they assert that everything holy and divine is the product of the minds of inexperienced men smitten with empty fear of the future and seduced by a vain hope of immortality. But those deceitful sages soften and conceal the wickedness of their doctrine with seductive words and statements; in this way, they attract and wretchedly ensnare many of the weak into rejecting their faith or allowing it to be greatly shaken. While they pursue a remarkable knowledge, they open their eyes to behold a false light which is worse than the very darkness. Naturally our enemy, desirous of harming us and skilled in doing so, just as he made use of the serpent to deceive the first human beings, has armed the tongues of those men with the poison of his deceitfulness in order to lead astray the minds of the faithful. The prophet prays that his soul may be delivered from such deceitful tongues. In this way these men by their speech "enter in lowliness, capture mildly, softly bind and kill in secret." This results in great moral corruption, in license of thought and speech, in arrogance and rashness in every enterprise.
When they have spread this darkness abroad and torn religion out of men's hearts, these accursed philosophers proceed to destroy the bonds of union among men, both those which unite them to their rulers, and those which urge them to their duty. They keep proclaiming that man is born free and subject to no one, that society accordingly is a crowd of foolish men who stupidly yield to priests who deceive them and to kings who oppress them, so that the harmony of priest and ruler is only a monstrous conspiracy against the innate liberty of man.
Everyone must understand that such ravings and others like them, concealed in many deceitful guises, cause greater ruin to public calm the longer their impious originators are unrestrained. They cause a serious loss of souls redeemed by Christ's blood wherever their teaching spreads, like a cancer; it forces its way into public academies, into the houses of the great, into the palaces of kings, and even enters the sanctuary, shocking as it is to say so.
Consequently, you who are the salt of the earth, guardians and shepherds of the Lord's flock, whose business it is to fight the battles of the Lord, arise and gird on your sword, which is the word of God, and expel this foul contagion from your lands. How long are we to ignore the common insult to faith and Church? Let the words of Bernard arouse us like a lament of the spouse of Christ: "Of old was it foretold and the time of fulfillment is now at hand: Behold, in peace is my sorrow most sorrowful. It was sorrowful first when the martyrs died; afterwards it was more sorrowful in the fight with the heretics and now it is most sorrowful in the conduct of the members of the household.... The Church is struck within and so in peace is my sorrow most sorrowful. But what peace? There is peace and there is no peace. There is peace from the pagans and peace from the heretics, but no peace from the children. At that time the voice will lament: Sons did I rear and exalt, but they despised me. They despised me and defiled me by a bad life, base gain, evil traffic, and business conducted in the dark." Who can hear these tearful complaints of our most holy mother without feeling a strong urge to devote all his energy and effort to the Church, as he has promised? Therefore cast out the old leaven, remove the evil from your midst. Forcefully and carefully banish poisonous books from the eyes of your flock, and at once courageously set apart those who have been infected, to prevent them harming the rest. The holy Pope Leo used to say, "We can rule those entrusted to us only by pursuing with zeal for the Lord's faith those who destroy and those who are destroyed and by cutting them off from sound minds with the utmost severity to prevent the plague spreading." In doing this We exhort and advise you to be all of one mind and in harmony as you strive for the same object, just as the Church has one faith, one baptism, and one spirit. As you are joined together in the hierarchy, so you should unite equally with virtue and desire.
The affair is of the greatest importance since it concerns the Catholic faith, the purity of the Church, the teaching of the saints, the peace of the empire, and the safety of nations. Since it concerns the entire body of the Church, it is a special concern of yours because you are called to share in Our pastoral concern, and the purity of the faith is particularly entrusted to your watchfulness. "Now therefore, Brothers, since you are overseers among God's people and their soul depends on you, raise their hearts to your utterance," that they may stand fast in faith and achieve the rest which is prepared for believers only. Beseech, accuse, correct, rebuke and fear not: for ill-judged silence leaves in their error those who could be taught, and this is most harmful both to them and to you who should have dispelled the error. The holy Church is powerfully refreshed in the truth as it struggles zealously for the truth. In this divine work you should not fear either the force or favor of your enemies. The bishop should not fear since the anointing of the Holy Spirit has strengthened him: the shepherd should not be afraid since the prince of pastors has taught him by his own example to despise life itself for the safety of his flock: the cowardice and depression of the hireling should not dwell in a bishop's heart. Our great predecessor Gregory, in instructing the heads of the churches, said with his usual excellence: "Often imprudent guides in their fear of losing human favor are afraid to speak the right freely. As the word of truth has it, they guard their flock not with a shepherd's zeal but as hirelings do, since they flee when the wolf approaches by hiding themselves in silence.... A shepherd fearing to speak the right is simply a man retreating by keeping silent." But if the wicked enemy of the human race, the better to frustrate your efforts, ever brings it about that a plague of epidemic proportions is hidden from the religious powers of the world, please do not be terrified but walk in God's house in harmony, with prayer, and in truth, the three arms of our service. Remember that when the people of Juda were defiled, the best means of purification was the public reading to all, from the least to the greatest, of the book of the law lately found by the priest Helcias in the Lord's temple; at once the whole people agreed to destroy the abominations and seal a covenant in the Lord's presence to follow after the Lord and observe His precepts, testimonies and ceremonies with their whole heart and soul." For the same reason Josaphat sent priests and Levites to bring the book of the law throughout the cities of Juda and to teach the people. The proclamation of the divine word has been entrusted to your faith by divine, not human, authority. So assemble your people and preach to them the gospel of Jesus Christ. From that divine source and heavenly teaching draw draughts of true philosophy for your flock. Persuade them that subjects ought to keep faith and show obedience to those who by God's ordering lead and rule them. To those who are devoted to the ministry of the Church, give proofs of faith, continence, sobriety, knowledge, and liberality, that they may please Him to whom they have proved themselves and boast only of what is serious, moderate, and religious. But above all kindle in the minds of everyone that love for one another which Christ the Lord so often and so specifically praised. For this is the one sign of Christians and the bond of perfection. (Pope Pius VI, Inscrutabile, December 25, 1776.)
To accept these beautiful words of Pope Pius VI means rejecting the entire ethos of conciliarism and its perverse "accommodation" to the world (viz. Gaudium et Spes, December 7, 1965). The necessity of of beseeching, accusing, correcting and rebuking those in error enters not into the minds of those who are steeped in the errors of conciliarism. There is thus no spirit of Saint John the Baptist to be found amongst most of the false shepherds of the counterfeit church of conciliarism as they reaffirm contemporary Herods and their subjects in sacramentally invalid marriages. There is only the spirit of Antichrist, which has manifested itself for all those who have the intellectual honesty to see the truth for what it is.
Ah, Jorge Mario Bergoglio really does not believe that anyone can go to Hell if they “encounter the Lord” and express some kind of sorrow, which is nothing other than recycled Lutheranism. (For an excellent commentary on Bergoglio’s religion of sentimentality and false mercy, see Novus Ordo Watch Wire.)
Here is news that may give Jorge Mario Bergoglio and his fellow revolutionaries a fair bit of agita: the Mother of God has spoken of Hell to a sinner and has shown three shepherd children souls suffering in Hell in itself:
Then the Lady said, "Where does that heretic live who cut the willow tree? Does he not want to be converted?"
Pierre [Port-Combet, who had become a Calvinist] mumbled an answer. The Lady became more serious, "Do you think that I do not know that you are the heretic? Realize that your end is at hand. If you do not return to the True Faith, you will be cast into Hell! But if you change your beliefs, I shall protect you before God. Tell people to pray that they may gain the good graces which, God in His mercy has offered to them."
Pierre was filled with sorrow and shame and moved away from the Lady. Suddenly realizing that he was being rude, Pierre stepped closer to her, but she had moved away and was already near the little hill. He ran after her begging, "Please stop and listen to me. I want to apologize to you and I want you to help me!"
The Lady stopped and turned. By the time Pierre caught up to her, she was floating in the air and was already disappearing from sight. Suddenly, Pierre realized that the Most Blessed Virgin Mary had appeared to him! He fell to his knees and cried buckets of tears, "Jesus and Mary I promise you that I will change my life and become a good Catholic. I am sorry for what I have done and I beg you please, to help me change my life…"
On August 14, 1656, Pierre became very sick. An Augustinian priest came to hear his confession and accepted him back into the Catholic Church. Pierre received Holy Communion the next day on the Feast of the Assumption. After Pierre returned to the Catholic Faith, many others followed him. His son and five daughters came back to the Catholic Church as well as many Calvinists and Protestants. Five weeks later on September 8, 1656, Pierre died and was buried under the miraculous willow tree, just as he had asked. (Our Lady of the Willow Tree.)
It was on July 13, 1917, that Our Lady showed Jacinta and Francisco Marto and Lucia dos Santos the place that will be, most unfortunately, the future eternal home of Jorge Mario Begoglio unless he repents of his crimes against the honor and glory and majesty of the Most Blessed Trinity and the eternal and temporal good of the souls redeemed by the shedding of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ's Most Precious Blood during His Passion and Death on the wood of the Holy Cross, Hell:
"I want you to come here on the 13th of next month, [August] to continue to pray the Rosary every day in honour of Our Lady of the Rosary, in order to obtain peace for the world and the end of the war, because only she can help you."
"Continue to come here every month. In October, I will tell you who I am and what I want, and I will perform a miracle for all to see and believe."
Lucia made some requests for sick people, to which Mary replied that she would cure some but not others, and that all must say the rosary to obtain such graces, before continuing: "Sacrifice yourselves for sinners, and say many times, especially when you make some sacrifice: O Jesus, it is for love of You, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary."
"You have seen hell where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I say to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace. The war is going to end; but if people do not cease offending God, a worse one will break out during the pontificate of Pius XI. When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that he is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father.
"To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of Reparation on the First Saturdays. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be annihilated. In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me and she will be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world."
Mary specifically told Lucia not to tell anyone about the secret at this stage, apart from Francisco, before continuing: "When you pray the Rosary, say after each mystery: 'O my Jesus, forgive us, save us from the fire of hell. Lead all souls to heaven, especially those who are most in need.' "
Lucia asked if there was anything more, and after assuring her that there was nothing more, Mary disappeared off into the distance. (Our Lady's Words at Fatima.)
Our Lady promised on July 13 1917, to return to request the consecration of Russia by the Holy Father. She came to visit Sister Lucia in Tuy, Spain, on June 13, 1929, to specify the terms of this consecration:
"The moment has come in which God asks the Holy Father, in union with all the Bishops in the world, to make the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, promising to save it by this means. There are so many souls whom the Justice of God condemns for sins committed against me, that I have come to ask reparation: sacrifice yourself for this intention and pray." (Our Lady's Words at Fatima.)
Our Lady herself said that “There are so many souls whom the Justice of God condemns for sins committed against” her, the Theotokos, “that I have come to ask for reparation.”
Yes, the Mother of God spoke of the Justice of God, a truth that Jorge Mario Bergoglio and most of the "synod fathers" at Circus Jorge deny by implying that such strict justice is incompatible with God’s Mercy. Bergoglio does not believe that God condemns any sinner to Hell for all eternity, save for perhaps the “rigid,” closed-in-on-themselves” adherents of the “no church” of the past. Bergoglio, though, is being ever faithful to his false religion, whose Roman Rite liturgy makes no mention of a God Who judges and the need for sinners to do penance for their sins lest their go to Hell for all eternity. In other words, Jorge Mario Bergoglio believes that the Mother of God and the Fathers of our twenty true general councils, including Council of Trent and the [First] Vatican Council], who met under the Divine guidanceand infallible protection of the Third Person of the Most Blessed Trinity, were wrong. He is a blaspheming heretic who is sending himself and those who follow him to Hell.
Based on a private revelation to Sister Mary of Saint Peter in France in the 1840s, the devotion to the Holy Face is quite relevant to the blasphemies of our own day being uttered by the lords of Modernity in the counterfeit church of conciliarism and the lords of Modernity in the world. The revelation given by Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to Sister Mary of Saint Peter on March 2, 1847, explained that souls are indeed going to hell, meaning, of course, that they have been condemned to spend eternity deprived of the glory of the Beatific Vision by persisting in a state of final impentinence:
Revelation of March 2, 1847
Our Lord praises Sister Mary of St. Peter for making a good retreat by which she discovered many faults within her soul. Then our Saviour deplored the lack of meditation by many in the world, saying that because they do not seriously think over the condition of their souls, they never learn how full of sins they are.
For the past fifteen days our Lord has not communicated anything special to me. During these days, however, I endeavored to reform the innermost depths of my soul, and humbling myself at the sight of my many failures, I made a confession of my faults yesterday, and this morning approached our Lord in Holy Communion. Wanting to abase myself before Him, I contemplated Him surrounded with great majesty and splendor, but He, addressing me, said:
“My daughter, I prefer rather that you consider Me covered with wounds because sinners continually inflict them upon Me.”
At that instant I had a vision of our Lord in this sad state.
“My daughter, come close and let Me confide in you.” Then this Divine Saviour spoke the following lamenting words which broke my heart and made me shed many tears:
“I am not known, I am not loved, and My Commandments are scorned.” Then He added the following words which actually made me tremble:
“Sinners are snatched from this world and they are swept into hell like the dust that is carried away by the fury of a tornado. Have pity on your brothers and pray for them! With the veil of your tender love wipe the Blood which flows from My wounds. Love Me and be assured that when you raise your heart to Me in love, I will accept it from you and keep it in security.”
After that our Lord told me that He was pleased with my retreat during which I discovered so many faults within my heart and He said:
“Think, My daughter, how much your recent meditations helped you find in your soul many defects, and consider on the other hand the many unhappy people who never meditate on these truths. Labor very hard both for yourself and for them. Be to these souls like a mother who will never eat unless she shares her food with her children.” (The Golden Arrow: The Autobiography of and Revelation of Sister Mary of Saint Peter (1816-1848) On Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus, edited by Dorothy Scallan and translated by Father Emeric B. Scallan, S.T.B., published originally by William Frederick Press, New York, New York, 1954, and republished by TAN Books and Publishers, Charlotte, North Carolina, 2012, pp. 194-195.)
It is time for us all to pray our Rosaries more fervently, putting aside the distractions of the moment, and by commencing devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus, discussed more fully in Circus Jorge, part two, so that we can make some reparations for the crimes of the conciliar blasphemers as well to pay back of what we owe for our own many sin. We must make this reparation, of course, by gratefully accepting the hardships and the difficulties of the moment as nothing in comparison to the crown of glory that awaits those who die in a state of Sanctifying Grace as members of the Catholic Church after having refused the easy path of human respect and “fellowship” to preserve by Our Lady’s graces in the true Faith in this time of apostasy and betrayal.
The conciliarists lose in the end. Christ the King will emerge triumphant once again as the fruit of the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of His Mother and our Queen, Mary Immaculate. The Church Militant will rise again from her mystical death and burial.
Keep praying. Keep sacrificing. Keep fulfilling Our Lady's Fatima Message in your own lives.
Let us remember the Poor Souls today, the Commemoration of All the Souls of the Faithful Departed, and every day as the friends we make of them by our prayers will help us both now and especially at the time of our death,
Isn't it time to pray a Rosary right now?
