A question to my posting of “Paganism in the Catholic Church: Prophecy Fulfilled” inspired me to start writing my sincerest response to Dawn! Her questions were too serious and compelling to just brush over with a quick simple few words! So as I began writing it kept going until I had completed the following!
God allows only what will serve His divine absolute purpose.
When you were a little child did your parents watch over you?
As a child could you have navigated and provided for yourself?
You did learn to love and trust in your parents to look over you?
Nothing mankind can do is absolute or everlasting.
It’s been called “Blind Faith” or “Let go and Let God!” Show Trust!
To Trust solely in Him is the beginning of all wisdom. The Holy Spirit!
Trusting in man or the ways of the world is not going to save you.
Nor can anything men or material systems do give immortal life!
Only God through Jesus Christ IS the “Giver of Life,” and all our needs!
2 Corinthians 5:17-21 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away, and look, new things have come. Everything is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: That is, in Christ, God was reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed the message of reconciliation to us. Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, certain that God is appealing through us. We plead on Christ’s behalf, “Be reconciled to God.” He made the One who did not know sin to be sin for us, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
Matthew 28:19-20 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.
What follows is my response to another blog comment I made back in early January 2020, regarding another apparent misdirection of the faithful, by the active Pope Francis when he said; “never try to convert unbelievers.”
“I had to get into a more comprehensive explanation and chronicling of my own experiences that have led me to have my current perspective and belief that comprehensive efforts on many fronts including the Vatican are actively working to discredit the faith and renounce God’s word that Jesus Christ is “the Way, the Path and the Life.”
It appears from Holy Scripture what Francis is saying flies in the face of what the Lord Himself has commanded us to do.
I tried for the days leading up to Christmas Day 2018 to be intellectual each time this individual kept appearing on my social media site not letting well enough alone and allowing those of us of faith to have a peaceful joyous Christmas, to share and celebrate the birth of our Savior! I will not just pass it off I thought; so I took it as a “direct attack” by evil, which I never experienced on Christmas by anyone my entire life until then! I know from this event and so many others that were painful challenges in my personal life over the last several years or more actually, that this is pure diabolical evil at work in the world and it seeks out anyone of faith to attack viciously with its sole purpose being to dishearten or trouble the faithful while completely confusing the weak and lost; it is pure hatred I witnessed; not only of Jesus but of all His faithful.
This Pope speaks in contradictions and I never thought that I would say such a thing having been brought up a Roman Catholic, knowing in my heart I truly love Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior! But, I won’t go into all of my reasons except one is that I reached out to this Pope at the Vatican during one of my more if not most troubled periods in my entire life where I was up against powers and principalities; or very corrupted political slaves of the Devil in my locale, and I got “Zero Response” back from the not real Pope, when at least some acknowledgement regarding the matter, which I explained in great detail in a letter of several pages; would have been appropriate. Now I realize I should have sent it to Pope Benedict XVI instead, but I was duped like so many to believe we had a new Pope Francis. Now in light of the most recent betrayals of the Church and its faithful this Pope has sealed his fate in my view as being, derelict in the least, or possibly diabolical at the worst!
“He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him” (John 5:23, 24)
But, the double-edged sword is at work in this current messed up world, because Satan is using many of the advantages of high speed digital communication to confuse, misinform and outright deceive in earnest, as the father of lies has these modern tools at his disposal through his countless minions! We now see a Pope that is false and I dear say he appears to be supporting the beast (the corrupted political system) which I’ve become aware of over the last several years like many of you! My mother based on her long life experience and being a devout parishioner of the RCC had been saying for the last dozen years that Jesus is in a sense being crucified again by an out of control secular world and culture of death. The fraud Bergoglio with his introduction of the Pachamama into the heart of the RCC has I believe driven his final nail into his own coffin and immortal soul; but also the RCC Church is experiencing like all of Christianity a Great Apostasy or Falling Away of the not so faithful, and even being replaced by pagan idolaters and workers of Satan on earth; aka Freemasons and all manner of pagan cohorts.
Obviously materialism and vain exploits riddle the earthly societies tremendously while so many turn away from seeking God and prefer political favor, materialism, pleasure, lust and all manner of instant gratification. This leads to all manner of perversions and abuse which we read about or see on TV or the Net News daily. Is it any wonder hatreds and violence plague our man-made system. This is to me a spiritual warfare like no other that has increased exponentially over the last 30 to 40 years and especially since 9/11 which to me was a definite demarcation line or event to clearly show that two opposing ideologies or beliefs that have been colliding for well over several hundreds of years are now being set-up for a major showdown which is of course The Battle between Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior and the antichrist.
“Turn to me and be saved,
all the ends of the earth!
For I am God, and there is no other.
By myself I have sworn;
from my mouth has gone out in righteousness
a word that shall not return:
‘To me every knee shall bow,
every tongue shall swear allegiance.” Isaiah 45:22-23
“Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.” Philippians 2:9-11
“He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him” (John 5:23, 24)
Because we who accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior believe in the Blessed trinity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and that the Father and Son are one; when we glorify Jesus we are glorifying the Father. Therefore, the eternal glorification of the Father is through the Son Jesus Christ. If any people will not willingly give praise and glory to God in this life, they will do it against their own will throughout eternity. It’s made clear through God’s word to all who seek Truth, Hope and Salvation from a sinful world that in many instances is barely even a distorted reflection of God’s Glory we must do our best to not be deceived making sure to discern God’s will from that of the worldly beast or even ourselves.
Thanks be to God. Amen.
Many evangelical Christians state the opposite of what Pope Francis has said!
“Can we be casual in the work of God — casual when the house is on fire, and people in danger of being burned?” Duncan Campbell
“Christian is either a missionary or an impostor.” – Charles Spurgeon
“The way you store up treasure in heaven is by investing in getting people there.” Rick Warren
Then there is all of the apparent intentional debacle at the Vatican with his controversial introduction of pagan god idols, the Pachamama, into the sanctuary of the Vatican and a ritual performed for mother earth blaspheming God, as a direct violation of the first commandment. Mind you this idol a pagan symbol of a god which human children were sacrificed to in ancient times!
October 28, 2019 (LifeSiteNews) – “A Brazilian bishop said that Pope Francis’ Oct. 4 ceremony in the Vatican gardens prior to the opening of the Amazon Synod, where people prostrated themselves before a wooden statue of a naked pregnant woman (Pachamama), constituted a “scandalous, demonic sacrilege.”
“Mother Earth should not be worshiped because everything, even the earth, is under the dominion of Jesus Christ. It is not possible that there are spirits with power equal or superior to Our Lord or of the Virgin Mary,” said Bishop Emeritus José Luis Azcona Hermoso of the Brazilian city of Marajó said in an Oct. 20 homily at the cathedral in the state of Pará.
To the applause of the congregation, the bishop added, nearly shouting: “Pachamama is not and never will be the Virgin Mary. To say that this statue represents the Virgin is a lie. She is not Our Lady of the Amazon because the only Lady of the Amazon is Mary of Nazareth. Let’s not create syncretistic mixtures. All of that is impossible: the Mother of God is the Queen of Heaven and earth.”
“The invocation of the statues before which even some religious bowed at the Vatican (and I won’t mention which congregation they belong) is an invocation of a mythical power, of Mother Earth, from which they ask blessings or make gestures of gratitude. These are scandalous demonic sacrileges, especially for the little ones who are not able to discern,” he added later in the homily.”
“The Spanish-born bishop said that a genuine illumination from the Holy Spirit, which “our dear Pope Francis has mentioned so often,” is required to understand the much-debated synod. “We should distinguish between what comes from Satan or from the human mind, from what is of the Holy Spirit. This discernment is fundamental in order to belong to the Church and even more so to evangelize.”
“A friend exorcist says that this idol (Pachamama) is actually the figure of the antichrist. It is a blasphemy and parody of Mary. Pachamama is pregnant but carries the antichrist to give birth to him in the Masonic church, to destroy the sacraments, which is to return to idolatry and superstition. So, this antichrist who is to give birth to a church with an ‘Amazonian face’ is an abomination, it is a contradiction to Church doctrine, which is the dynamic into which these idolaters want to enter into now.”∎ by Paul Simeon
Then there is his highly visible appearance and involvement in world politics at the UN forming a new body politically and involving himself and the Church directly in “global man-made corrupted politics” as we know the UN for years has been biased and corrupted on many levels full of SIN! For this Pope to be in union with a highly corrupt political body outside of the Church is a blasphemy! It is antichrist!
In John 10:27 Jesus Christ says, “My sheep listen to my voice: I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life and they shall never perish.” Have you heard the voice of Jesus Christ and are you following him? If so, then you are in his plan.
To be included in God’s plan is a wonderful thing. It means you belong to God. In John 17:9, Jesus Christ, the high priest, said, “I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours.” God gave some people as a gift to his Son that he may redeem them. In other words, these people “belong to Christ, and God has a plan for them.”
In Jeremiah 29:11 we read, “For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you; plans to give you hope and a future.”
In 1 Corinthians 2:9 Paul writes, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”
This is really all a testing ground, a place where a constant battle ensues but also continuously the true genuine heartfelt intent of each soul is carefully examined and seen for what it is.
Many profess anything under the sun up in the sky, or claim to be this or that; only to serve their own selfish vain foolish purposes! Only God knows all!
If we truly belong to Christ Jesus, we will “only do the Father’s will and be a living example of love for our Eternal Father in Heaven.”
Some individuals find excuses, having axes to grind or prove themselves right in the corrupted Ways of the World battles, where all are losers, and those most often“will not humbly submit or bow to God,” believing they are wise and cleaver enough, very brilliant and imaginative, as it turns out so much that they have actually done a good job of tricking themselves into believing they can go it alone without Jesus leading them; just live out their lives day to day doing the same things they do that are getting them “nowhere;” in the big picture and certainly not saving their immortal souls from eternal separation from God, and the True Eternal Life!
Many people allow “pride and stubbornness” to cloud their judgment and actually actively avoid God, and they do not humble themselves to Him, “getting on their knees,” “seeking Him alone” to guide them and provide what they truly need while here on earth, and then for eternity in His glory!
This Scriptural verse certainly should be repeated often to put it in perspective; so people can wake up!
1 Corinthians 2:9 Paul writes, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”
But all the while, and each day they do the aforementioned not humbling themselves to God Almighty; they please Satan who figures he has them all in the bag or in his clutches, to use as other minions his slaves; we see this all around us and throughout the world!
This is why we see all of the madness and chaos ensue in politics and the Church, even the current fraud pandemic/plandemic also; because this world is falling away, the corruption and sin got into all of man’s affairs along with the True Church as well long ago, even causing schism or a splintering of the church family back then and subsequently over the centuries, but, that is not going to stop until the man of perdition is revealed and all these things in the Holy Scriptures come to pass; they are the Word of God who has spoken from the beginning to mankind; and it is “His” plan that will come to fruition nobody else’s!
The powerful men of the world go their own way, and as an example George Soros who said clearly he doesn’t believe in God is doing his own thing and has already rejected the Son of God, and sees himself likened to being a god on earth with all of his wealth and earthly power; but, he is damned to the eternal pit along with this monster imposter pope Bergoglio!
“18So that your fasting will not be obvious to men, but only to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 19Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.” Matthew 6:19
While men like Soros store up vast riches here making countless huge investments they are “actually going bankrupt” spiritually losing everything, and the one most important thing they have; their “immortal souls!”
“35For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake and for the gospel will save it. 36 What does it profit a man to gain the whole world, yet forfeit his soul? 37Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?” Mark 8:36
Don’t be confused by all of the madness and evil occurring, because God our Father in heaven is in control, “He knows His own” and if “you know Him through His Son” then there is nothing to fear as you are following “His will,” so that is our assurance that by following Jesus closely we are in no trouble no matter what happens here or to our flesh!
“30And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified. 31What then shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32He who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all, how will He not also, along with Him, freely give us all things?” Romans 8:30-32
The Lord’s Prayer
“7And when you pray, do not babble on like pagans, for they think that by their many words they will be heard. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him. 9So then, this is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name.” Matthew 6:8
“19I pray that God will take care of all your needs with the wonderful blessings that come from Christ Jesus! 20To our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.” Philippians 4:19
God bless you and yours!

This is an excellent post, Brother Lawrence! Thank you! Your mother is a very talented and very wise woman, and absolutely correct! Jesus Christ is being crucified all over again. But He prevailed, and so shall we! The Church must survive, at all costs!

Exactly Dawn! Moms know best and thank you for that! She also meant how what Saint John Paul II said about this being a culture of death now on so many fronts the disregard for life by so many and then the tossing of Jesus aside to be so modern and secularized is cruel to do that to our loving Savior!
“18And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” Matthew 16: 18-19
