It reminds me of an all in Game of Cards. The Devil is putting all in in High stakes. And the Blessed Virgin is sitting quietly. But I wouldn't judge the game by how she looks on the table
They did the right thing. It is not these noble young men that retrieved them (or so claims the Vatican) and have decided to befoul with them the feast of Christ the King. One could say that these young men presented the Vatican with a test and the latter have failed abysmally. I think we have to hold firm here right now. Let us just stay where we are, folks. Saint Padre Pio's advice is to be followed: "pray, hope and don't worry". Let the Pope and his cronies do what they will, we didn't ask them and our omniscient, omnipotent God will deal with it in His own good time. Given the behaviour of our pope, it is tempting to opt for the widening broad highway of unilaterally declaring him an antipope, but that's not our job, and this broad highway leads to the abrupt dead-end of sedevacantism. We need to stay on this difficult narrow way of putting up with a seemingly wicked pope. We just pray and stay Catholic, even if we find we're the only one in our parish. Vive Cristo Rei.
Have you read Father Richard Heilman's view on his Roman Catholic Man blog? You're thinking very alike.
I love Fr Heilman. The Devil was beat from the second he said , 'No'. As ar all those who follow him in the Vatican. Popes or non Popes. May God have mercy on their poor souls. There are many Popes in hell I have no doubt. and will be many more.. Popes can choose wrong paths... ..as can the rest the rest of us... ..the only difference being bad Popes go to a very,very, very special place in hell cosying right up close to Lucifer in the ninth circle were they get to see Lucifer face to face forever and ever/
So if we are Conservative Catholics does that make Francis Liberal? Wow so preach unity from the pulpit and division within The line has been drawn in the sand after that statement I know what side I'm on
We are not Conservative. We are not Liberal. We are not Traditional. We are simply Catholic. The word , 'Catholic', meaning 'Universal.' As to what side we are on? Hopefully we are all on the side of Christ 'Has Christ been divided'? Hopefully not. 1 Corinthians 1:10-17 Divisions in the Church 10 Now I appeal to you, brothers and sisters,* by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you should be in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you should be united in the same mind and the same purpose. 11For it has been reported to me by Chloe’s people that there are quarrels among you, my brothers and sisters.* 12What I mean is that each of you says, ‘I belong to Paul’, or ‘I belong to Apollos’, or ‘I belong to Cephas’, or ‘I belong to Christ.’ 13Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14I thank God* that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15so that no one can say that you were baptized in my name. 16(I did baptize also the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized anyone else.) 17For Christ did not send me to baptize but to proclaim the gospel, and not with eloquent wisdom, so that the cross of Christ might not be emptied of its power.
Nevertheless, John. If Pagan idols are to be displayed at a mass in St Peter's in Rome. at the close of a Chuch synod with the Authority of the Pope in the full view of the entire world, would that cause you any concern at all? Or if a Pope says it's fine, it;s fine with you? Whatever? If a Pope says it alright it got to be alright? Any Pope and for whatever reason? He's the Pope whatever he says goes? ..and you're not a good Catholic if you ask questions about worshipping or showing idols respect...in St Peter's in Rome ..at mass..?
I believe we are very near the ending of the 3rd Fatima secret. The 2 popes prophecy of Blessed Emmerich, the vision in the 3rd secret of Fatima, the '3 popes and no more' message at Garabandal and St Malachy's prophecy of the popes all tie in together to fit our current time of crisis. I don't think we will have a normal conclave and another pope as usual after this. God will act. Our Lady will triumph. Will St Peter himself choose the next pope on earth? Is that what St Malachy prophesied about by 'Peter the Roman'? +
In 2,000 years the worst Ponticiate. No other Pope comes even slightly close. The Worst Pope in history. Totally and astonishingly Bad. 0 out of ten. 0 out of a hundred. 0 out of a thousand. Bad, bad, bad, bad. I wouldn't mind so much but why oh why did I have to live to see it? The only thing worse than the Pope is his current Press Office...which is Dire.Dire. Dire.. Like some kind of awful comedy act. The lady in charge has a French Communist Party Poster over her desk. Will somebody please explain to me what that is all about? Does the Holy Father think Communism is fine now? Where and how did we go so wrong? How do I Sign up? Can I still go to communion if I am not a Party Member? Can I go to Holy communion if I am a Party Member; please tell?
You know I asked a very holy priest and good friend of mine a long time ago about Francis he said "he is a bully" he also said "ask yourself this question John, why is Benedict still alive" I also noted that when he prays for the pope at mass he does not mention Francis he mearly says we pray for our holy father I bet he means Benedict Funny when I said CCM earlier I instantly thought of when you cc an email I guess we are cc Mary
Padraig, it is all about the most exciting period in human history. It is our Israelite moment when we can clearly see our journey is to lead the 'wandering in the desert' current mind numb people of God into the era of peace. Like Moses, we will have to break those idol's around us. You, I and everyone on MOG have a big role to play in leading those around us, when God opens up their eyes and ears, via the warning, into the era of peace. Small in numbers, great in the power of God through our Mother Mary will we help lead them. He needs us, that is why we are here. It doesn't matter what current Holy Father thinks, what matters is us keeping the faith handed on to us, which we were trained in. This web site MOG is not an accident. It is providential. It is a means of sharing with each other what God has given us for the battle. Most of us are only in the part of the battle when we can see the enemies from a distance. Starting with those within God's own house. Soon we will be doing battle in our local churches and with local priests and bishops and apostates who may loose their faith. Mary, in St. John Bosco's vision, had the pillar rise that said: "Help of Christians". It is our time, like it was the apostles time in the Acts of the Apostles to do battle. We have to use, through all the graces we have been given, all our learning of faith to steer the Church back to the anchors of the Eucharist and Holy Mother Mary through it all. It is our battle now. Soon we will be in the trenches. We won't have to read about how saints of old did it, we will all be in our own battles that God placed us with and our Blessed Mother finds victory with. To me that is what it is all about. Putting our eyes on the era of peace and not looking back as the 600,000 Israelites did in journey to the promised land and only two were allowed to enter into. Its our battle now and you can do it, we all can do it if we have our eyes on the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart, the Second Coming and the Era of Peace, which Revelations 20 speaks of as 1000 years, meaning a long period of time, living in the Divine Will as Adam and Eve did before the fall. Everything will once again have its perfect purpose, place and order. The lambs will once again lay with the lions... it is coming, rise up and praise God we have a part in it all.
I am reminded of a very holy woman I knew who has since died who survived the nazi's and a stint in the russian gulag during stalin's reign of terror--truly holy and when asked about the pope she said "you mean Pope Benedict? Pope Benedict is my Pope." I have never forgotten that.
