All of this is a wonderful story about how anyone’s journey with the Lord is a work of art in progress. As we each follow the will of God through Jesus Christ who sends the Comforter or Holy Spirit our way is enlightened by the very presence of God as He reveals Himself to us in His own way but making certain that we know He is there; “God does work in mysterious ways,” ways of the Spirit that manifest even tangibly in our personal walk with the Lord.
I’ve been a huge fan of taking walks to clear clutter and tensions but also to do that walk with Jesus asking along the way if there is anything He will show me or can reveal to me on today’s journey, whether it be some symbolism that is pure and simple via actual physical things I may encounter or perhaps a thought in my mind and deep feeling in my heart; in essence a sudden realization or revelation and sometimes a conversation with another person along the way, that brings out in the open something that needs to be considered more in order to crystallize the message that is being sent to me! This has happened to me often enough in any of these ways to confirm to me that God is always there and totally receptive to our thirsting for TRUTH! In this way we gain insight and understanding so that we can be the better example of who we are for Him and further emulate what He is teaching us each day while living our lives and going through our trials; not just making us better people but preparing our very souls to join Him in Paradise! So the walking is key to facilitating this process, for me perhaps as important or sometimes more than praying, because the praying can be and often is built into the walking journey! You brought out walking being good a few times here! “– How can we see God working in our lives and the lives of others?” narrowpathministries.com
“We pretend to be satisfied with a lesser walk with God, but something’s missing.” narrowpathministries.com
You again mention walking with this verse that immediately preceded Jeremiah 33:3.
“That’s why a daily walk is so important. Keep weeds out of soil! When we’re fully committed to Jesus and filled with the Spirit we’ll have more of God — we’ll see greater things.” narrowpathministries.com Isn’t that exactly what this verse says and as I mentioned the walking with Him our Lord will bring us closer and open our hearts to Him more; allowing Him to lead the way and reveal things to us!
Here in this Scripture I see how all of this ties together wonderfully with even 3 standing out as a great symbolism or metaphor of the Divine Trinity that has tied together the fact that the presence of God in my life daily is experiencing how the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are with me not in some other place in the universe that I’m unable to see, touch and feel because I do have that communion with God in His way via the “Holy Spirit that brings all Truth” to us working in God’s own mysterious ways. “Emmanuel; God is with us!”
I want to continue here with the entire explanation of this communion with God that I wrote November 8th, 2019 which was about my Walk with Jesus on Sunday November 3, 2019. I think this may very well offer some further insight into what I’m trying to convey here in conjunction with what you’ve explained beautifully too. This particular writing quite profoundly came up two other times this week in very special ways for great reasons; and so today it’s happening again with your essay here makes it the 3rd time it was meant to come to the fore; to me a confirmation to share with all!
Today I want to look at a man who had his priorities right and was a blessing to his entire household.
I wish more Christians would follow these priorities for the home.
Acts 10:1-8
In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment. He was a devout, God- fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He gave generously to the poor and prayed regularly to God. One afternoon about three o’clock, he had a vision in which he saw an angel of God coming toward him. “Cornelius!” the angel said. Cornelius stared at him in terror. “What is it, sir?” he asked the angel. And the angel replied, “Your prayers and gifts to the poor have been received by God as an offering! Now send some men to Joppa, and summon a…
The hour draws near as we are witnessing the total dismantling of the human race by none other than Satan! Many powerful human beings are absolutely demonically possessed along with many of their minions or agents being demonically influenced in order for them all to do the bidding of Satan!
Just this week another blog article pointed out this bit of colossal news; “Members of the United Vaccine Movement” pose in front of the Christ the Redeemer statue as the message “Vaccine Saves” is projected on it, to make the population aware of the importance of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccine in Rio de Janeiro.” Now think about this, the perpetrators of the Global Vaccination process have worked at a fever pitch and pulled out all the stops as it were to get everyone on the planet vaccinated to where now they even aside from Bergoglio the False Prophet Pope pushing this concoction; they even totally blaspheme our Lord, Savior Jesus Christ and God Almighty by using Him in this way! The gravity of what is happening so quickly over the last year is beyond mind boggling and is absolutely terrifying not just because of the obvious as to what this means but how billions of people are oblivious to this danger like sheep being prepared for their slaughter, taking the vaccination without a care or worry even when they see the facts and truth coming out!
Here is part of what I had to say about this latest news. I can only suggest to anyone who truly cares and wants to do God’s will while they have time to do so, that he or she read Holy Scriptures daily and pray fervently to Jesus Christ from their heart of hearts for Almighty God’s deliverance from this madhouse the human race has now formulated via; giving the Devil his due! We are on the precipice and we need Jesus Christ to save us; not some damned vaccine which is all based on fraud and lies. Seek the Lord and ask Mother Mary along with all the saints and angels to pray for us! Amen. God bless you.
Also I had this to say last week because the push to get everyone vaccinated! Look at this: “that variants are different enough to warrant border closures and require new vaccines;” What the hell are they talking about, the flu every year is a variant and not everyone bothers to get a damn vaccination which most of the time are off the target and useless! I never get it, the vaccination, and hardly the flu! And we never had massive Lock-Downs over the Flu each year!)
So unfortunately I must tell you most of the world if not all of it judging by the condition of the Catholic Church (or overall the Christian faith) alone has given us plenty to be extremely concerned, worried and even feeling fear about these things; and therefore most people should have a natural fear reaction at least, to what we’ve all been going though and witnessing, excluding sociopaths, which there are many of out there; because there really is so much that can go wrong very quickly now in this digital madcap world coupled with the amount of diabolical evil that has infested our Church, governments, societies, culture, schools, universities, corporations, social media and let’s just say really; how there isn’t much if anything that is held with the highest esteem as being sacred anymore! If people don’t get it or see where I’m coming from; then so be it! By what we all have witnessed for over a year I tell you, I see multitudes of human beings that will run off the cliff together if instructed to do so, by some of the most devious and diabolical persons this good old earth has had on it; who are presently in major positions of authority and influence!
Then I had this to say just yesterday mentioning my comments of last week because of this latest Nobel Laureate speaking the Truth about the virus!
(This is all I’ve been saying since a year ago this past March! LIES on TOP of LIES! Question is when are the billions of humans on this planet going to say enough already and if you people in charge don’t reverse this whole direction things are going we the people are going to come and get you all and string you up! Just like they did in the past French Revolution and so many others! These mentally deranged tyrants have been getting away with Murder and Mayhem to PROFIT that is another giant driving force in this SCAM-DEMIC! They stand to make TRILLIONS of BUCKS!
Now with this latest expert Prof. Luc Montagnier coming forward we see that my observation of a diabolical undertone to this whole catastrophe in the making from the start was spot-on! The Professor said “it is the vaccination that is creating the variants.” I’ve written almost countless words about how this nefarious plot was going to thicken and then the ugly demonic truth would rear its head! Now let me say this again in fewer words! The whole thing was and is Satanic! They wanted these variants to overwhelm the populations to kill off or cull human beings as they prepare to take over the entire human race for the antichrist’s entrance! Much worse is coming and the only hope is God Almighty, but in the meantime we must fight the good fight; the bold and brave must seek out the culpable and conduct trials and executions to rid this planet of these demonic influenced monsters. Simultaneously the best minds in biochemistry around the globe need to quickly get together and do their best to find a way to short-circuit or neutralize the damage done!
Of course you all know by now how much of a push he Green New Deal has been given too by all the powers that be in governments around the globe but especially here in America by the criminal Dem party. This all fits this diabolical Global Construct being moved into place now. So just yesterday I had this to say in another of my comments referring to this aspect of the bigger picture or takeover of the human race!
Green Energy is a misnomer and fallacy. There is nothing GREEN or even clean about it except the scam artists who will make tons of (Green Backs) cash! The materials needed to construct solar panels are not renewable and are quite finite, rare and even scarce as well as being in only a few counties; which will set in motion a geopolitical war like you wouldn’t believe breaking economies and partnerships.
I went on to speak about how many wind power turbines along with battery power cells or solar panels would actually be needed which require Rare Earth Minerals and are Finite Resources as well as being non-renewable! We would need millions if not billions of these all around the planet to generate the kind of electrical energy needed to maintain all existing energy demands. When we get into rare earth materials dependent batteries and solar panel needs; it’s a horror story! Putting up solar farms large enough to make a petroleum based fuel dependent system to be no longer needed, would require tearing down forested areas of trees that produce oxygen from guess what folks, CO2 and other hydrocarbon absorption! So we are going to take away all those trees like they did in my own area, and basically let’s not take away CO2 naturally as God intended in this ecosystem while in turn not have the trees produce oxygen to breath; all so that we can put up ugly solar panels all over the place and use up RARE earth minerals to make them; while using much of those minerals in batteries that eventually must be disposed of and are highly toxic to the environment and life!
The way I see it’s the brainwashed or demented liberals of the world along with the evil people like Bill Gates, George Bush, George Soros, Al Gore and multitudes of extremely wealthy, politically powerful fear mongers who are manipulating the masses with nonsense to gain complete control of not just what we use only, but; to eventually control all of us as to what we can and can’t do or think; as they redistribute the wealth of the planet among themselves!
The reason I mention all of this regarding the bigger picture Global Scam is because they won’t eliminate all those trees they intend on eliminating most of us human beings!
So again I repeat a comment yesterday which I think is my way of pointing out why this is happening!
I’ll tell you what this big problem is! This is what happens when the human race becomes a secular, pagan and distorted group of Banshees! Live like heathens and destroy like heathens!
Anyone who is listening Turn to Jesus Christ; NOW! Get down on your knees and pray from your heart to Him! Read Holy Scripture and begin to move closer to Him; that is all that really matters because the world is heading to hell in a hand basket. God bless you.
Jesus tried to warn us about their wicked plans over 10 years ago
Jesus, in His numerous messages in the Book of Truth, warned us about what is taking place now. The warnings began in 2010. By the end of 2012, the warnings included children.
Go to our post (link below) for an introduction to these wicked plans :
“… Actions are now being perpetrated in the world at every level of government, church and state in your name and you are oblivious to this.
Bad laws are being introduced and presented to mankind as being in their best interests. This includes new regimes, medicine, foreign aid, vaccination and the preaching of new religions and other doctrines. Never has there been so much confusion amongst My children. …”
“… I come to tell you now of events which will reveal to you the signs of these times and of My Presence in this Mission. Storms will be seen in many nations and they will last for weeks. The global vaccination I told you about in 2010 will soon be witnessed. The Hand of God, in His Divine Justice, will be seen when He permits the temptations placed before those who serve Him in My Church. When these and all the other prophecies come to fruition, I will be waiting. And then will come The Warning. It will come soon, before the Great Day when My Promise to come again will be finally fulfilled. …”
“… The rise of these Satanic groups who present themselves to the world, through business and networking organisations, is rampant. They are everywhere; scheming, holding rallies, plotting and creating wicked plans to destroy millions of innocent people.
They will introduce a form of genocide, through compulsory vaccinations, against your children with or without your permission. This vaccination will be a poison and will be presented under a global healthcare plan. …”
“My dearly beloved daughter, how the Truth can shock you. Although you accept My Holy Word, it is only when the prophecies I reveal to you materialise, that you understand the seriousness of this Mission to save humanity.
The introduction of a global vaccine, targeting infants and young children, will be one of the most wicked forms of genocide ever witnessed since the deaths of the Jews under Hitler.
This evil plan will be possible because many of your governments forced their people to accept changes in their laws giving their governments power to enforce laws against your innocent children. …”
Originally posted on It's a God thing…: It’s been almost a month since life changed forever for my 14-year-old nephew Reuben. On Saturday 24th April, he and his family went swimming at a Queensland beach. Like any other day, the kids were in the water, having fun. But the jump Reuben took ended tragically.…
Hi Ali…I had woken up a little while ago and looked online at my account. I saw your latest blog post notification with a couple of others at the top of the cue. The first I clicked on was another nice Christian lady’s the Godly Chic Diaries and after reading that posting I send this which I thought may have relevance.
I next clicked on a very nice Christian blog site that I follow closely lately rebogging many of his because it was a very short thank you sent to me from my last comment yesterday evening. Then when I next read yours the 3rd in the cue I was sad and not sure what to say at that moment; as I started remembering how when I was a high school student I had gone surfing with some guys I grew up with who could surf and swim well but I was fair at it. This was just after a hurricane had passed by the area and so the surf was up to humongous proportions; way over my skill level and very dangerous! But being young and I guess we can say foolish I paddled way out around a point in order to be far enough out to be in the swell area were you wait for the biggest that is beginning to crest then go for it!
A set of three huge waves were roaring toward me and then I realized I was in way over my head and not in a good place so I went for it with the approaching wave and me and the board rose up into the air a few stories and all I could do was hold onto the big gun long board which suddenly shot down pearling under with me! I was lost in the under-toe and it was sounding like a freight train down there with rocks clapping and water rushing in all directions around me so I just felt in my heart oh God please save me; knowing if I panicked it was over and had no chance of surviving. So as I went limp and got tossed I felt a calm come and had no fear or anything really on my mind, Then like a cork I popped up to the surface and was bobbing around looking out to sea. Then I saw another huge wave building to a crest coming at me so I dove under it. I was already feeling tired but then when I popped up on the surface again as the next cresting wave, the 3rd one in that set, was now almost on top of me as I then heard a voice from a man on a surfboard whom I had no idea who he was; said grab hold of the board which I did and we paddled toward shore, then he said you can make it all the way now, and I said yea and starting to swim then stand on the bottom walking the rest of the way; and as I did I looked back as I recall to see that man which I did not!
I’m shivering right now and beginning to cry because something happened to save my life that day and it was God intervening so I would live to continue here for reasons only He knew! I walked on and fell to the beach sand laying face first in it and saying thank you God and I’m not surfing anymore! I went on with life and many things have happened that if I weren’t around I know could have turned out much different, some that would affect others negatively and I also would not have grown to be who I am now, some of it good and bad; but still I know I made a difference in a big way here and there, many times.
So after feeling at a loss as to what to say to you I didn’t want to say some cliché thing and just fill in a window with some words. I got up from my chair at my desk and walked over to my bed where my dog being a bit old now was still resting so I got back on the bed and was petting her asking if she wanted to go for that big walk the one in that piece I just sent that I mentioned in it. She seemed peaceful so I said OK I’m going to lay down a bit and as I did for about 15 minutes I went into a dream and in it I was standing in a building like hospital sort of place and saw Rueben and I was glad to be there and get to see him in person so I could talk a bit; then we said our hellos and I asked him, so how long have you been standing like that and how do you feel now after all this has happened; to which he said for a while and everything is great or something to that effect because it gets fuzzy now after that point my dog happened to disturbed my peaceful dreamy state and I had to get up to bring her outside!
My hope and prayer now is that what I saw and truly hope in my heart of hearts is a sign that things will work out fine for Rueben and everyone connected to him now and onward through this circumstance! I feel in my heart God has special plans for Rueben. I’m starting to tear with emotion again; it’s all good we are in His hands! Tell Reuben I said hi and I’ll be thinking about him as I go for this morning’s walk down that same location I wrote about in that other posting. “Always Walking with Jesus Christ”
God bless you all and great love and happiness to all of you in Jesus’ Holy Name. Amen. 🙏 🙏 🙏 😉 👍 ♥️ 🌻 🌈🌻🌞
Brother in Christ Jesus,
Lawrence
I just saw the last message I sent your way was April 3!
Those emojis in that order were part of a previous message to you some time ago that I noticed as soon as I looked at my contact history.
Aside from all else I’ve said and could or would say now that can be in tandem to the fine insights within this latest CP&S heartfelt encouragement to stay the distance via Traditional Catholicism; is this one other amazing accounting of a miracle that happened bringing an atheist full circle to devote himself to Catholicism.
That article was “Fatima Vision of Hell helped Atheist, Salvador Dalí, return to God” which involves our Blessed Mother which this young seminarian obviously has great affinity and love for. So here I discovered in review of several of my most recent postings the pure and obvious reason for this young man to stay the distance and be a priest of a traditional order!
And I must quote: “Salvador Dali is considered one of the greatest artists of the 20thcentury and the most famous Surrealist. At the height of his popularity in 1960, he was commissioned by The Blue Army of Our Lady of Fatima to paint the Vision of Hell, as Lucia, Jacinta and Francisco experienced during the July 13, 1917, apparition at Fatima. The idea for the painting came from a Protestant who, having read about the vision from Sister Lucia’s memoirs, converted to Catholicism and entered the seminary. The thought was that Dali could reach young people and unbelievers far more effectively with this message than any sermon on Sunday morning or story about saints. This commission would change Dali’s life and work, and lead him from his avowed atheism back to his Catholic roots.” Posted on May 17, 2021 by Catholicism Pure & Simple
To me this is all so beautiful and an example of divine intervention or as I refer to these things a connecting of dots in our lives that God helps us
to see. This is a tremendous inspiration or why the Catholic Church and it goes totally hand in hand with what I said in my response recently to this seminarian. “A virtuous young man who chose a most beautiful vocation that is in peril now because the whole world is! The world needs you and many more like you to stand ready for Christ and do the will of our Father in heaven. I believe He inspired you in the first place so the battles are many and severe; but now is the time to face all adversity in order to grow that virtue and faith that’s in you.” https://lawrencemorra.com/2021/05/19/seminarian-is-there-any-reason-why-i-should-remain-catholic/
I went on to say; “We have that same Church that Jesus proclaimed to Peter ordaining him and that Church to continue; against even hell itself can’t ever defeat it!
We must not throw out the baby with the dirty bath water ever! So too our Church has been attacked, contaminated and stained with filth and sin, even blasphemy over many years; doing much harm and even self-destruction from within by evil cohorts!”
So now from what was stated here in this latest article which I quote; “The article to which I am responding suffers from one fatal logical error that runs from start to finish: the anonymous seminarian allows the enemy to dictate the terms of the entire debate. He lets the postconciliar distortion of Catholicism set the agenda for the discussion, and that is why he is disgusted and has no way of escape: he gave himself for a decade to what he can now see is a lie, but he does not seem to see that the existence of a falsehood implies the corresponding existence of the truth, since error is parasitical upon truth, as evil is upon the good. The lie he hates and thrashes against is not Catholicism, but neo-Catholicism or Modernism (as he obliquely recognizes when he says the only punishable crime nowadays is adhering to tradition). For example, he writes:
I could not tell you one teaching of the Catholic faith that isn’t always changing. I don’t think we’ve even begun to acknowledge the extent to which modernism has undermined the foundations of the faith. The Church is crumbling into quicksand, and we are scolded ad nauseam that the Church still has to change more with the times.
The wolves in sheep’s clothing of today warp the teaching of Catholicism by means of an “official theology” that has and can have no magisterial standing, although it wishes it could.
The Church of Christ has been occupied by impostors, by modernists who are not believers. They wear the clothes, they hold the offices, but they do not hold the Faith, and do not pass it on. The seminaries of these impostors are mind-bendingly manipulative as they try to suck out the spirit of right judgment and the love of tradition.
Regardless of what the churchmen who occupy ecclesial posts may do or say, the Catholic Faith is still believed, practiced, lived, across the world in places where the authentic Roman liturgy, trustworthy catechisms, true devotion to Our Lady and the saints, and a love for Catholic culture are still to be found.
If fifty years of relentless hostility and lack of support have not been able to crush traditional-loving Catholics, who, though a minority, are more numerous, well-informed, and committed today than at any time since the Council, nothing will crush them in the future. Divine Providence will not permit it, because the true Faith must last until the end of time. The Faith is alive, and in a humble way, thriving: but you will seldom find such evidence of supernatural life in the mainstream parishes, chanceries, and seminaries.”
Not to be mean but does this sound like a time to turn tail and run? Not to me it doesn’t; as a matter of fact it gives me all the more impetus to meet the challenge head on and seek God’s guidance to fight the good fight! The Catholic Church is like the Crown Jewel or Holy Grail to the Devil which he must destroy in order to get back at God; thus all the horrendous evil and attacks from within to accomplish that. This world has never been easy or a happy forever place where all goes smoothly and we know why! The enemy has raised havoc and hell itself upon this place that is Fallen from Grace! Jesus Christ is the Light of all existence which will bring home all the good within this world. You have done an excellent job up until now so don’t blow it by giving up or in to this wickedness that seeks your defeat like it does of any of us! We have to be the soldiers for Christ defending the faith and Church along with doing what the Holy Spirit directs us to do one day at a time, just like Saint Mother Teresa said and did her whole life of serving the Church and needy! Your disillusionment is understandable but not necessary or acceptable to God! Don’t allow these devils and imposters who have infiltrated this great Church of God’s just like they have infested the US Government the One Nation under God to deter you from the mission! I hate that these despots have done this to my Church and Nation but I will not run away or give up! For me it’s a fight to the finish and Jesus Christ wins always!
I recently was responding to another blog site and it touched on this whole idea of holding on to the mission and not losing faith especially when the battle heats up or is intensifying!
“…our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fighting’s, within were fears. Nevertheless God, that comforted those that are cast down, comforted us by the coming of Titus;…” 2 Corinthians 7:5-6
Apostle Paul mentions Titus for good reason.
“I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother:…” 2 Corinthians 2:13
“To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.” Titus 1:4
To me this same doubt and struggle today was occurring even back them with all the challenges and suffering going on in the world around them back in that time of Christ on Earth and now it’s more imperative to meet the challenges with determination and face all adversity with Christ Jesus leading our way!
Let me close with the rest of what I had said in the other blog posting.
This is an excellent explanation about being an encourager and what Titus was accomplishing for God’s will. It does come down to being a good example for others so that what good exudes from our heart of hearts through Jesus Christ will rub off on others. If more people would be brave and selfless like you mentioned and do this then many things would improve dramatically! But in this fast paced materialistic narcissistic hurry and get what I can for me kind of world; sadly this message is being suppressed and even lost to the mob mentality and sheer indifference or apathy!
You certainly are an encourager coming out with this excellent statement and projection of your own heart into the world of near chaos to say I’m doing different than the “fray” and will be a “ray of hope;” a beacon that sends out the right message like a lighthouse guiding the weary on the tossed sea in their ships; helping them to make it to their destination and back home!
God bless you and yours.

A Reply to the Discouraged Seminarian: There Are 6,000 Reasons to Remain Catholic Posted on May 21, 2021 by Catholicism Pure & Simple
CP&S comment. On May 19th we published a disturbing testimony from 1Peter5 by an unnamed seminarian who was about to leave the seminary due to his total disillusionment with the current state of the Church. Finding no point anymore in his vocation to become a priest when the modernist formation he had been receiving denied all the fundamental bulwarks of our Catholic Faith, he sees the Barque of Peter as sinking fast on a downward spiral. He even asks, “Is there any reason why I should remain Catholic?”
Christ’s Agony in the Garden, Duccio di Buoninsegna, ARSH 1308, Museum of the Duomo, Siena
I was deeply moved by the article that appeared at this site, entitled “Seminarian: ‘Is There Any Reason Why I Should Remain Catholic?’” What follows is my affirmative reply. I’m under no illusions that my answer will be comprehensive or convincing to everyone, but what it has going for it is the sincerity of a person who has himself been wounded by members of the hierarchy, who has been denied speaking platforms on account of upholding the traditional Faith, and who has also stared into the abyss of corruption and apostasy that mark the Church on earth in our times—and yet who believes, finds reasons to believe, and, indeed, finds reasons for hope.
Even if we take the most conservative estimate, dodging the “saint factory” that revved up in the 1980s under John Paul II, the Catholic Church venerates at least 6,000 saints officially recognized as such (some would say over twice that many, depending on how you tabulate them). Each one of these saints is a masterpiece of God’s grace triumphing in the frailty and fracturedness of fallen human nature. Each one is a bright light in the encircling gloom. Each one tells us what the Christian is called to be and can, in fact, become by fidelity to Our Lord Jesus Christ. Each one gives the lie to fatalism, nihilism, and cynicism. And each one is an unanswerable argument for the truth of the Catholic Faith.
Decades ago, Joseph Ratzinger made the following observation:
The only really effective apologia for Christianity comes down to two arguments, namely the saints the Church has produced and the art which has grown in her womb. Better witness is borne to the Lord by the splendor of holiness and art which have arisen in the community of believers than by clever excuses which apologetics has come up with to justify the dark sides which, sadly, are so frequent in the Church’s human history. (The Ratzinger Report, 129)
One could perhaps amplify this by saying there is a threefold apologia: the saints, the civilization produced by Catholicism, and the inner cogency and coherence of traditional Catholic theology, which displays a monumental solidity and a profound consistency.
If someone were to ask me “Why be a Catholic?,” I would reply: The saints—the Apostles like Peter, John, and Paul; the martyrs from Lawrence and Stephen down to Maximilian Kolbe and Franz Jägerstätter; confessors like Athanasius the Great and Basil the Great; religious like Benedict, Francis, Dominic, John of the Cross, Clare of Assisi, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, and Thérèse of Lisieux; priests like St. John Vianney and St. Peter Julian Eymard; missionaries like St. Francis Xavier, St. Edmund Campion, St. Isaac Jogues, and Father Damien of Molokai; kings and queens, simple porters and lay brothers; the list goes on and on and on—and I barely know a fraction of my heavenly family, whom I can’t wait to meet in person (please God!), but with whom I am already bound by a mystical communion in Christ our Head. He, of course, is the reason for the greatness of these heroes of faith and charity who adorn His Mystical Body: He is their Model and Maker. If they are so wonderful, what must He be like? And He has given Himself to us already in the Most Holy Eucharist under the veils of bread and wine, so that He may prepare us to see Him with face unveiled in the Kingdom of heaven.
If someone were to ask me “Why be a Catholic?,” I would reply: The glorious civilization the Catholic Church inspired and built—the culture of fine arts and sciences that has no equal, let alone rival, anywhere in human history, because divine revelation illuminates and fuels human endeavor. It attracted and motivated the highest flights of genius as well as the most extensive philanthropy; it made a home for epiphanies of beauty that reach up to eternity and infinity, lifting us above our earthbound vision and daily doldrums. The music, the architecture, the painting, the poetry—Gregorian chant, Palestrina and Byrd, Haydn and Bruckner; Romanesque basilicas and Gothic cathedrals; Giotto, Fra Angelico, Raphael, Michelangelo, Titian, El Greco, Bernini, van Eyck; Dante, Cervantes, Shakespeare, Manzoni, Hopkins, Chesterton, Waugh… once again, the list could go on practically for ever. From the holy mountain of Christ rushes down a torrent of delights and insights, consolations and provocations—all bearing witness to the splendor of the Incarnation that dazzles the human spirit, and sustains it sacramentally.
If someone were to ask me “Why be a Catholic?,” I would reply: The theology of the Church in its apostolic, patristic, and scholastic plenitude, a grand oak tree birthed from a tiny acorn, showing in its mighty trunk and vast crown the power of the principles at root. As John Henry Newman saw and described so well in writing the work that accompanied his entry into the Roman Church, An Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine, the truth unfolds in strength and stability across the ages of faith. Whether we take up the formidable Summa theologiae of St Thomas Aquinas with its seried ranks of syllogisms or simply consult any standard catechism from the Counter-Reformation down to the eve of the Second Vatican Council, we will find one and the same Catholic Faith, always confessing the Holy and Undivided Trinity, the perfect humanity and divinity of Jesus Christ, the virginal maternity of Mary, the veneration of the saints, the life of grace, virtues, prayer, worship, and sacraments, the promise of eternal life in the bliss of the beatific vision. There is no deviation, no distortion, no dereliction in the Faith of the Church; it is there, it is knowable, it is livable, it is lovable. When we know it, we can live it; as we live it, we come to love it, to treasure it; we would no more choose to live without it than we would choose to live without sanity of mind or health of body.
The transcendentals are inseparable, but one may predominate in this or that subject. The glorious company of the saints show forth the Good; the great artists, architects, musicians, and writers show forth the Beautiful; the theologians show forth the Truth. Together they bear witness to the Father (“no one is good but God alone”), the Son (“image [eikon] of the invisible God”), and the Holy Ghost (“He will guide you into all the truth”) (Mk 10:18, Col 1:15, Jn 16:13). I am reminded of the proverb: “Though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him. A threefold cord is not quickly broken” (Eccles 4:12).
The article to which I am responding suffers from one fatal logical error that runs from start to finish: the anonymous seminarian allows the enemy to dictate the terms of the entire debate. He lets the postconciliar distortion of Catholicism set the agenda for the discussion, and that is why he is disgusted and has no way of escape: he gave himself for a decade to what he can now see is a lie, but he does not seem to see that the existence of a falsehood implies the corresponding existence of the truth, since error is parasitical upon truth, as evil is upon the good. The lie he hates and thrashes against is not Catholicism, but neo-Catholicism or Modernism (as he obliquely recognizes when he says the only punishable crime nowadays is adhering to tradition). For example, he writes:
I could not tell you one teaching of the Catholic faith that isn’t always changing. I don’t think we’ve even begun to acknowledge the extent to which modernism has undermined the foundations of the faith. The Church is crumbling into quicksand, and we are scolded ad nauseam that the Church still has to change more with the times.
But what’s going in reality is this (modifications in italics):
I could not tell you one teaching of the Catholic faith that today’s Modernists in the Church aren’t saying must always be changing. I don’t think we’ve even begun to acknowledge the extent to which modernism has attempted to undermine the foundations of the faith, even though we know it can never do so, since God’s truth is indestructible, and the consistent teaching of the Church on any major issue is easily accessible. The human element of the Church (certainly not those in a state of grace or the saints in glory) is crumbling into quicksand, and we are scolded ad nauseam by the progressives and liberals that the Church still has to change more with the times, even though this view was condemned again and again by Church authority.
One could do this kind of “fisking” on every sentence. To let the modernists in the hierarchy of the Church define the meaning of being Catholic would be the equivalent of letting the Jacobins of the Revolution define the meaning of being French, or the Democrats of 2021 define the meaning of being American. The wolves in sheep’s clothing of today warp the teaching of Catholicism by means of an “official theology” that has and can have no magisterial standing, although it wishes it could. How do we know that it has no standing? For one simple reason: the Faith cannot contradict itself: as St. Vincent of Lérins classically expressed it, growth over time in the understanding of religion does not mean mutation or substantial change. Catholicism is a religion of faith and reason, where the one never contradicts the other.
I feel for this seminarian. He has been put through the machinery of neo-Catholicism, and it’s shredded him to a pulp. His article is the anguished cry of a man who has been spiritually abused by the “Squishy Church,” with all its pomps and works—a simulacrum of Catholicism that no longer tries to hide but openly parades its perversity. The seminarian recognizes that the modernist reinvention of Catholicism in the ascendent after the Council leads to a dead end: the traditional reasons given for being Catholic are no longer accepted by the modernists themselves, who have virtually expelled themselves from the Church. The Church of Christ has been occupied by impostors, by modernists who are not believers. They wear the clothes, they hold the offices, but they do not hold the Faith, and do not pass it on. The seminaries of these impostors are mind-bendingly manipulative as they try to suck out the spirit of right judgment and the love of tradition.
What I see sorely missing in this article—though again, my heart bleeds for this victim of a bloodsucking bureaucratic monster—is an awareness that there is any alternative, but there is, and, like Christ, it is the same yesterday, today, forever: traditional Catholicism. Regardless of what the churchmen who occupy ecclesial posts may do or say, the Catholic Faith is still believed, practiced, lived, across the world in places where the authentic Roman liturgy, trustworthy catechisms, true devotion to Our Lady and the saints, and a love for Catholic culture are still to be found. They do exist, here, there, across the map like sprinkled drops of holy water from a cosmic aspergillum, in greater numbers than one might think possible in a time of such decadence. Whether it be a dedicated priest in an out-of-the-way rural refuge or a parish run by a religious order in a million-peopled metropolis, such circles, or dare I say cenacles, of faithful Catholics will never disappear. If fifty years of relentless hostility and lack of support have not been able to crush traditional-loving Catholics, who, though a minority, are more numerous, well-informed, and committed today than at any time since the Council, nothing will crush them in the future. Divine Providence will not permit it, because the true Faith must last until the end of time. The Faith is alive, and in a humble way, thriving: but you will seldom find such evidence of supernatural life in the mainstream parishes, chanceries, and seminaries.
As readers can see, I agree with the author’s dark portrait of the situation, but diverge when it comes to the crucial decision that must be made: Do I stay at the foot of the Cross with St. John and Our Lady and persevere to the promised resurrection, no matter how bleak things appear, or do I walk away shaking my head because the Messiah wasn’t what we were expecting Him to be, and His mission looks like it’s all over? Surely, that ragtag coetus of disciples is a pathetic sight—nothing great can be expected from them. The former, with the eyes of faith and reason, sees what must be so, waits, works, and does not waver; the latter, closing those eyes, sees what the Enemy would have him see, and thus gives up, stops working, and falls away.
Speaking of Our Lady… there’s a glimmer of faith at the end of the seminarian’s cri de coeur where he turns to the Blessed Virgin Mary. She is the Stella Maris, the star that guides the desperate sailor in the stom back to the safety of the port. Outside of Jesus Christ, there is darkness and shipwreck. “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”
Very well done and honest perspective of this madness that comes from Hamas and other major Terror Sponsors in the Middle East; AKA Iran!
With Trump out of the White House and the insane criminal Left Radical Dem party in place now is the opportune time to raise hell in the Middle East again and seek to destroy Israel! This is all so academic and obvious! Main Stream Media is all Bull Shit and part of the lies being fed to peoples everywhere! I just gave my own perspective to this latest Terror game being conducted by Hamas on another Blog Site and I include it here for your review! The sad thing is I see how it won’t make any difference to expose all of the lies and provide straight honest information because the evil is out of control and won’t be shut down until the Second Coming of Jesus Christ!
Friends, don’t believe everything you hear on the news! There is extensive effort in the media to somehow sway the entire situation between Israel and Hamas in Gaza as Israeli war crimes that will garner the attention of the entire world.
Let’s get straight back to basics:
Some say the issue started over a dispute in the Jerusalem suburb of Sheikh Jarrah. More about that in a moment.
Some say the issue started on Temple Mount when Muslims celebrating the last few days of Ramadan (the Muslim holy month), instigated a conflict on Temple Mount before running into Al-Aqsa Mosque, hoping Israeli police would follow them in there and Muslims could blame them for invading a religious place during holy month.
Regardless of the reason, Hamas chose to respond by firing rockets toward Israeli cities, including Jerusalem. Israel did not instigate the exchange of rockets and missiles, but they did…
“This infernal alliance is meant to lead to the establishment of the New Order and the advent of the Antichrist”

Informational sharing purposes only on this platform.
I’m so inspired when I think of how these three blog postings this afternoon coalesced in a wonderful and to me miraculous way! They coincide perfectly and is direct truthful knowledge being implemented simultaneously by my fellow Christian bloggers with no advance suggestions or discussion of any kind! This to me can mean only one thing; Divine Intervention is taking place to facilitate our understanding of the complex but deadly factors in play throughout the world and paramount is our faith in the Savior of humanity Jesus Christ; who is clearly speaking to the world like never before since His crucifixion and time with humanity on earth, I do believe.
These two quotes from this magnificent article to me clearly point to the TRUTH that we are in the initiation period of End Time or Latter Days!
“Bergoglio has demonstrated that he wants to replace the Catholic Church with an ecumenical and globalist structure that preserves only the name or the “brand” of the Spouse of Christ. It is no coincidence that even in Catholic circles there is an ever stronger delegitimization of those who are not willing to renounce the Faith in the name of subservience to the dominant ideology.”
“The failure to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary led to the spread of Communism throughout the world; today we see Communism allied with the other sworn enemy of Christianity, Liberalism. This infernal alliance is meant to lead to the establishment of the New Order and the advent of the Antichrist. But let’s not forget that Our Lady has said that, before the final persecution, the world will enjoy a period of peace. I think that the Great Reset and the Satanic project of the New Order under the Masonic Synarchy has not yet managed to impose itself, even if we have come very close to it. I hope and pray that Providence is using this pseudo-pandemic to show us the dystopian world that awaits us if we do not return to God, if we persist in offending Him and violating His Commandments, if we deny the divine Kingship of Our Lord, preferring instead to live under the tyranny of Evil.”
This is absolutely God Almighty allowing the whole Truth to permeate societies and the faithful to make any final adjustments anyone of them would feel in their hearts is necessary to atone and prepare for judgment in order to be found worthy to enter into the Kingdom of God that Jesus Christ promised to all those who will turn from evil and sin and follow Him doing the Father’s will! The communists are doomed and the evil concoctions or sinful corrupted ideologies around the globe that many live by are going to assure them of hell when they die. It’s now or never for anyone who values their own soul to pray fervently and work harder than ever to amend their life before God! Accept Jesus Christ as you Savior now!
I want to include the narrative I wrote just a short time before finding this blog article listing in my cue. I think it will at least bring some added measure of the fact that God is speaking to us clearly so as to provide plenty of opportunity for any who believe to prepare! I’m truly happy and inspired greatly by these chain of events to day in my personal writings and I see others are doing and feeling he same way; this is beautiful! Thanks and praise to Jesus Christ. Amen.
Well my Christian Brother; WELL DONE! This is perfect timing because God Himself is working with us through the Holy Spirit, as Jesus Christ walks with all of His faithful every step of the way.
Today I had to respond to a dear Christian Sister’s sweet heartfelt comment on one of my blog postings, for which I just completed this long response comment before opening this incredible blog posting of yours; that was waiting in my incoming cue at the top moments ago! I want to include the whole comment here with many links to previous blog posting that relate or actually tie-in very well here!
Thank you Pam… very nice of you to bring your clear and truthful perspective to this. Absolutely true how there are so many people with a distorted sense of reality or lack of compassion for the actual victims throughout the ages! We can go back to the actual history of what the Nation of Islam has really been doing for thousands of years and see how they were brutal to not just the Jews but any nations they invaded; pillaging, killing and making slaves out of all their conquered. I think many people these days even if we do live in such a time with so much easy access to information aren’t really interested in understanding and finding truth as much as they are interested in staying in their warped mind-set to hate and cause trouble, which to me points out that evil is getting hold of countless numbers of people now!
When one examines the facts and sees how a whole religion is actually not; but is instead a former faith based on Old Testament teachings that was poisoned and manipulated to become a cult or political ideology hell-bent on conquering or destroying; which is nothing but blood-lust being propagated toward anyone outside of that cult, especially Jews and Christians being so predominate in the region. Anyone wanting to understand this problem should read the fantastic accounting of the Middle East and surrounding regions in the book “Sword and Scimitar” as it pertains to the truth and real culprits that have not allowed peace to flourish and never will in my humble opinion. Raymond Ibrahim of Egyptian ancestry, a top scholar and expert in this subject knowing all the languages and having extensively studied the original texts and manuscripts over many years has really provided a great historical accounting of the conflicts that have continually plagued the Middle East due to the Muslims and subsequent Crusades that were a reaction to being conquered for centuries by them! Then how those Crusades were the result of the many centuries of suffering and enslavement under the tyrannical Muslims. I wrote something a couple of years ago when a Muslim was attacking my writing on another social media. It was Christmas day and I had to let this man know he can’t attack our Savior especially on Christmas day and not get my response.
Aツaz Your own words; “live the way you want and not dictate as you are just a human and not a messenger of GOD, like Jesus and Muhammad were.” Muslim hoax” I am wondering how you equate a “hoax” with facts of an Islamic Empire” Wonder NO MORE Aツaz , pay attention and learn of your blaspheming error! You have a huge inaccuracy that needs to be corrected! Saying that Jesus is another prophet like Muhammad is blasphemous. First Jesus was not a mere prophet but was God Himself and therefore the Redeemer and Savior of Mankind as he said. Muhammad was only a supposed prophet and there is irrefutable evidence in the historical text of the time he lived that points to his being an outright liar and heretic as well as a criminal and child molester along with his being a polygamist! The following statements are highly accurate and actually proven. “In 632, only months before he died, Muhammad apparently met for the first time with a Christian community as such. An official delegation of Christians, probably led by a bishop, came to Mecca from Najran in Yemen. After engaging the Christians in discussion, the Prophet is said to have realized that Christian teachings are indeed incompatible with Islam, after which the “revelation” followed that only Islam is acceptable to God as a religion. The Quran also says very specifically that those who refer to Jesus as God are blasphemers, and that Christians saying that Christ is the son of God is an imitation of Jews, who earlier had said that Ezra is the son of God. According to the Quran Jesus was only a servant; Jesus the son of Mary was no more than an apostle of God. Quranic verses dealing with Jesus’ death have been interpreted differently by commentators, but generally they have been taken to mean that Jesus did not die by crucifixion. For Christians the Quran has thus served as a denial of Jesus’ incarnation and death on the cross and of the reality of the Trinity.” (Oxford University Press)
These two points alone put Islam and the Muslims completely at odds with Jesus Christ and all Christians and are the enemies of such! Muhammad himself began this conflict and was the spoiler and Heretic directly attacking God’s plan as foretold by all the previous prophets going all the way back to Abraham. Things have been in conflict because of Muhammad ever since and are getting worse, this will not resolve until Islam is Chastised or obliterated as a fake religion started by a false prophet and therefore heretic! In Summary Muslims are in complete denial of what Jesus Christ said and who He was which makes them Anti-Christ and supportive of the Devil; and all that is unholy. Basically Muhammad started this Blasphemy back in 632 AD and outright declared War on Christendom! Islam you yourself stated is an EMPIRE which puts it in the category of being a Nation not a Religion! It is not a religion that is backed up with solid historical evidence and prophecy over time by many prophets other than what Muhammad said; he made it all up, the heretic!
Well, I went all out to give some of my own perspective here but this is a matter that truly is very disturbing because the Palestinians and pretty much all of the Muslim faithful who follow Islam are perpetuating this horrible lie and actually attacking Jesus Christ, all of we Christians and Jews when they carry on like they are now! This goes on and on and yet the squad rant like lunatics that they have some ground to stand on while they support evil. They shouldn’t even be allowed in our government, and so this shows just how corrupted things have gotten; because they are in it!
Politics in America have become and off the wall insane concoction of Lies and Propaganda to just mess with us all and keep us off balance; save for some who are trying to change some things, so as to instead strike some type of balance; but mostly it’s an exercise in futility now! Look where we are and how the last election went and what the Dem party is up to; nearly total madness. They want Marxist communism to gain more absolute power and control; they’ve become wicked not American!
May 19, 2021 (LifeSiteNews) – Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò kindly granted me an interview that we conducted for Schloss Rudolfshausen, a fine Catholic apostolate in Germany, run by Mrs. Helene Walterskirchen and her daughter, Alexandra. They are publishing translations from Archbishop Viganò, as well as of LifeSite and many others. Mrs. Walterskirchen and her daughter also publish the journal Kultur-Magazin, for which this new interview with the Italian prelate was conducted.
Archbishop Viganò covers in this lengthy interview many aspects of the Great Reset, its connections with China and its harsh lockdown policies; its connections with key global players such as the World Economic Forum (WEF), the Bilderberger Group, the Rockefellers, and the Rothschilds; and its essentially “Masonic matrix.” As we see, it is a replacement of Christianity with a masonic world rule that is similar to that of older Communist experiments in the world. What connects the olderexperiments with this new international one is indeed Freemasonry.
Archbishop Viganò presents the talk of a former French Freemason, Dr. Pierre Gilbert, who 25 years ago predicted that there would be an illness that would then be used for political purposes:
There is a very interesting and revealing declaration by Pierre J. Gilbert (here) that dates back to 1995, which lists all of the steps that today we see taking place before our eyes with the tragic farce of Covid, from mass inoculation with a vaccine to the creation of detention camps for dissenters. This converted Freemason revealed the aims of the infamous sect 25 years ago.
But in light of these disturbing news, the Italian archbishop does not leave us without hope; he points out that these revolutionary elements often also turn against each other, and thus he does not believe that yet the time has come for the Great Reset with its evil underpinnings.

One sign that he could be right here is the fact that one of the major leaders in this corona agenda, Bill Gates, is currently under much criticism for his closeness to the then-already known sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein. More and more information is currently coming out into the light, and this information is seriously undercutting Gates’s credibility.
Viganò trusts Our Lady of Fatima’s words, according to which the Consecration of Russia will take place late, but it will come, and then there will be “a time of peace.”
“The failure to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary,” Viganò explains, “led to the spread of Communism throughout the world; today we see Communism allied with the other sworn enemy of Christianity, Liberalism.” He continues by saying:
This infernal alliance is meant to lead to the establishment of the New Order and the advent of the Antichrist. But let’s not forget that Our Lady has said that, before the final persecution, the world will enjoy a period of peace. I think that the Great Reset and the Satanic project of the New Order under the Masonic Synarchy has not yet managed to impose itself, even if we have come very close to it.
But while we await Our Lady’s victory, Archbishop Viganò calls upon us to lead lives in accordance with Christ’s Kingship, admonishing us to “seek to make Christ reign above all in our hearts, and, as a result, in our families, so that he may also reign in our societies.”
We have much gratitude to Archbishop Viganò for this illuminating and encouraging interview.
Please see here the full interview, as it was first published in German and herewith is presented in English.
THE GREAT RESET
Interview with His Excellency Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò
Mea est ultio, et ego retribuam in tempore, in quo labetur pes eorum! Juxta est dies perditionis, et adesse festinat sors eorum.
Revenge is mine, and I will repay them in due time, that their foot may slide! The day of destruction is at hand, and their time makes haste to come. Deut 32:35
1. What does the Great Reset mean?
“The Great Reset” is an expression coined a few years ago by the Masonic elite that dominates the world. It means a sort of global revolution that has been decided on by this elite in order to “reset” the entire social fabric, imposing a series of changes on the masses that are intended to prepare for the reign of the Antichrist, which in the absence of calamitous events would be difficult to have democratically adopted with their consent. The ideals of a better world, respect for the environment, fraternity between peoples, and inclusivity are only a hypocritical and deceptive way of delivering this revolution and cloaking it with an alleged nobility of purpose which in practice hides the true ends of the elite: by their own admission, “nothing will be as it was before.”
2. Who are the key people behind the Great Reset? What do we know about their personal beliefs?
The elite which promotes the Great Reset is composed of the main world organizations, from Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum to the O.N.U., from the Trilateral Commission to the Bilderberg Group, with the support of their servants in governments, high finance, multinational corporations, and the media. This process has gone on for centuries, led by the great dynasties of capital such as the Rothschilds and Rockefellers, who heavily interfere in the politics of nations thanks to their immeasurable wealth.
The matrix is essentially Masonic, both in the principles they express as well as the hatred they display towards religion, and even more towards Our Lord Jesus Christ. If we consider the requests promoted by the supporters of the Great Reset, we can trace them back to the triad of the French Revolution and Freemasonry: liberty, equality, and fraternity. Any Catholic who is instructed by the Magisterium of the Roman Pontiffs knows what infernal subversion is implied by these principles: liberty means rebellion against the Sovereignty of God and His Holy Law; equality places all people on the same level, the lowest, denying the differences and individuality of each person, and above all annulling the fundamental distinction between those who recognize Christ as the One God and Lord and those who reject Him; and finally fraternity seeks to establish a society in which men can be brothers without any reference to the divine paternity of God or belonging to the family of the redeemed in Christ.
Let us consider an important thing: man is made in the image of God in the sense that he reflects, in his faculties, the attributes of the Most Holy Trinity: the power of the Father, the wisdom of the Son, the love of the Holy Spirit. The Great Reset wants to overturn this connatural correspondence of man with his Creator, Lord, and Redeemer in a blasphemous parody: unhinging his memory, distorting his intellect, and perverting his will.
Everything that is done in the name of globalist ideology has this unacknowledged but very evident purpose: we must no longer remember our past and our History, we must no longer know how to recognize Good and Evil, we must no longer desire virtue and reject vice; indeed, we are driven to condemn the Good as intolerant and to approve Evil as a liberation and redemption from Christian morality. And if God is rejected as Father, there must no longer be paternity even in the natural order, because natural fatherhood is a mirror of divine paternity. This is why there is this theological hatred against the natural family and against unborn life. If God did not die for us on the Cross, there must be no more suffering, no more pain, no more death, because in pain we are able to understand the meaning of sacrifice and accept it for love of Him who shed His Blood for us. If God is not Love, there must no longer be love among men but only fornication and the satisfaction of pleasures, because if we desire the good of others, we are led to share with them the most precious gift that we have, Faith, and we cannot abandon them to fall into the Abyss in the name of a perverse concept of freedom. They are not atheists; they do not deny that God exists; rather, they hate Him, just as Lucifer hates Him.
3. Is it a battle between Good and Evil, in your opinion?
The Great Reset is not only the last stage prior to the establishment of the reign of the Antichrist, but it has acquired all of the connotations of a true religion, borrowing its language, creating ceremonies, appointing its own priests. The rituality of the present pandemic is quite obvious, especially in the way they have wanted to give the vaccine a sacramental value, to the point of resorting to priests and bishops – and even the pope himself – to promote it, even preaching that it is indispensable for salvation, identifying it as a “moral duty” for every believer. Thus, in prohibiting the Holy Sacrifice to the true God and banning the administration of the true Sacraments, the new Covid religion has imposed itself with new hygienic rituals and new sacraments of health.
The faith of the disciple of the Coronavirus in the media narrative is the grotesque parody of the act of faith required of the Catholic, with the difference that the dogmas of the health religion to which unconditional assent is required are totally irrational, unreasonable, and illogical; there is not an adhesion to a truth that transcends reason but rather to a dogma that contradicts it, showing that, like all false religions, Covid crosses the line into superstition. Those who believe in Covid thus find themselves in the position of having to give proof of their submission to its sacred ministers, even in the face of concepts that are repugnant to medical science and common sense: the use of masks is obligatory even if they do not protect against contagion; the vaccine is imposed even if it does not give immunity, treatments not approved by the Health Sanhedrin are prohibited even if their effectiveness is obvious. And we should add: the more absurd the order that is given, the more the disciple feels that he is a member of the sect precisely by the very act of obeying.
It is disconcerting that those who today abdicate from reason in the face of the proclamations of the virologist-pontiffs declare that they are “rationalists” and convinced supporters of science against any sort of dogmatistic fideism. On the other hand, when people do not believe in God, they end up believing in anything.
4. In light of the fact that the World Economic Forum supports the strong lockdown policies implemented in light of the Corona virus, even praising the benefits of the lockdowns for the clearing of the air, it seems that the Corona crisis corresponds with their plans very well and is a useful tool for their Great Reset. Do you see any ties there between the WEF and the managers of the Corona crisis?
I believe that I was one of the first Bishops to denounce the intrinsic tie between the pseudo-pandemic and the intentions of the Great Reset. There is a very interesting and revealing declaration by Pierre J. Gilbert (here) that dates back to 1995, which lists all of the steps that today we see taking place before our eyes with the tragic farce of Covid, from mass inoculation with a vaccine to the creation of detention camps for dissenters. This converted Freemason revealed the aims of the infamous sect 25 years ago. At the time, his denunciation was branded as the absurd rant of a conspiracy theorist, but today it is shown to be true in all its raw and terrible reality, demonstrating that the plan of the Great Reset ordered by the enemies of God is not limited to merely economic aspects that it uses as a tool to keep the world of finance linked to it, but which extends to the very essence of our lives as individuals and members of society, in order to cancel every vestige of Christianity. Behind all this there is the Evil One, who today counts on a highly organized group of followers.
We ought to free ourselves once and for all from the absurd narrative of the mainstream media, which says that Covid-19 is a deadly virus in the face of which nations have to organize themselves to confront an unexpected emergency pandemic that is difficult to contain.
First of all, according to eminent experts, Covid is said to be the result of manipulation carried out in a Wuhan laboratory;
Secondly, this virus, which in itself is not lethal, could be effectively fought with existing drugs and inexpensive therapies, while the WHO has given erroneous and misleading directives, suggesting protocols with devastating outcomes, preventing home care and increasing complications by imposing therapies for a respiratory syndrome rather than a circulatory one.
It further ordered the registration of all the dead as having died due to Covid, regardless of the real cause of death, discouraging autopsies and even going so far as to recommend the cremation of corpses.
On the basis of these inflated figures, the media have created a social alarm, an action of real terrorism towards the entire population, imposing unjustified closures, useless masks, and social distancing. In order to detect the supposed positivity of the virus, swabs and tests have been used that are totally inappropriate for diagnostic purposes and that give easily falsifiable results, as has been reported by their creator. Finally, it has promoted the use of an alleged vaccine, which is actually a genetic serum, admittedly ineffective as regards viral immunity and with widely demonstrated short-term side effects, while the long-term effects are still to be seen. It is a vaccine that, having been produced to combat a mutant virus, is destined to have to be periodically renewed on the basis of the phantom Covid “variants;” a vaccine that rudimentary medical science would discourage being given in the middle of a pandemic, because it could lead to forms of immunological resistance. In this criminal plan, science has turned into esoterism, doctors into sorcerers, and dissenters into heretics to be excommunicated or subjected to compulsory medical treatment.
The same errors – for example, the decision to hospitalize the elderly in nursing homes, thereby spreading the contagion and exterminating thousands of fragile people, after having weakened their immune systems – have been committed at different times and in various different contexts, even in the presence of unequivocal precedents, following a common plan. It is clear that there is a single script under a single direction, with actors who are reciting the part that has been given to them.
I would add, as proof of what I have been saying for a year now, that the nations that have not applied the containment measures and treatments imposed by the WHO are the ones that have reported the lowest number of deaths; and some nations that have not accepted the diktats of the world organizations have suffered coups, efforts at corruption, or have been eliminated: I am referring for example to Belarus (here) or to Tanzania (here), to cite only two of the most notable cases. Without forgetting that the official statistics of the total number deaths in 2020 are almost everywhere below the average number in recent years: if Covid was a true pandemic, then there ought to be numbers similar to what happened between 1918 and 1920 with the Spanish Flu.
In conclusion, Covid is a pretext with which to give the semblance of legitimacy to restrictions on natural freedoms and fundamental individual rights, in such a way as to create an economic and social crisis with which to make the Great Reset irreversible. The present state of economic exhaustion in European countries – in particular those of Catholic tradition like Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, and Poland – forces them to submit to the blackmail of the European Union and to be despoiled by American, Chinese, German, and French… multinationals. In tandem with the unhinging of the economic fabric, it was decided to concentrate profits in a few multinational companies, such as Amazon, Just Eat, Ikea, and others – including large retailers – which have benefitted enormously from the closure of small and medium-sized businesses and restaurants. Not to mention the profits of the pharmaceutical companies, behind which are investment funds headed by, among others, Microsoft, Amazon, and Facebook.
Another sector that has benefited enormously from the lockdown has been pornography: the multinational Mindgeek has increased its turnover, contributing to the corruption of millions of young people and adults forced to stay at home by the pandemic emergency, by means of promotional offers and free subscriptions, as a result of which the number of its clients has increased enormously and consequently also the price of third-party advertising. Consider that this site gets more online traffic than Amazon, Twitter, and Facebook (here) with 3.5 billion visitors per month (here). As we can see, the pandemic offers a precious opportunity for those who cultivate the vices and perversions of the masses in order to be able to better manipulate them.
5. More concretely, as it turns out, the West has imitated a lockdown policy that was first used by China, a totalitarian country. Does this not show us how much we in the West are already influenced by China? How else can we explain why the West would imitate Chinese methods?
The Chinese communist dictatorship is certainly one of the protagonists of the tragic pandemic farce: there is the concrete suspicion that it produced the virus, and the certainty that it spread it abroad, banning domestic flights but permitting international ones. China is also certainly taking advantage of the economic crisis, in whose wake Chinese financial groups are acquiring infrastructures, strategic companies, hotels and prestigious real estate, beginning in Italy. Beijing is aware that the establishment of the New World Order obtained via the Great Reset will entail a “communization” of liberal ideology, and it is taking advantage of this to expand its power in the world, also thanks to the fifth columns it finances in various nations: this is exactly what Edward Luttwak has denounced in the past few days in saying that Italian ministers and undersecretaries are in the pay of China (here).
6. You were one of the early voices warning us that the Corona virus is being used for political purposes. I remember how in the very early stages, last year in March I was heavily influenced by people such as the immunologist Dr. Richard Hattchet, who stated that “this is the most frightening disease I have encountered in my entire career,” compared the Corona virus with the situation of World War II (minute 11.45) and praised the successful and “incredible sets of interventions” undertaken by the Chinese Communists in Wuhan. Now I realize that he is working on a vaccine for this virus and is funded for it with $20 million by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Could this example explain how we came to accept such stark restrictions in our lives and there was indeed a collaboration of different forces to scare us?
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is among the principal sponsors of the virus, and at the same time, as I mentioned earlier, Microsoft is the first shareholder of the Blackrock investment fund, which finances Pfizer, Moderna, and Astra Zeneca. Furthermore, the Foundation is among the primary sponsors of the WHO and has ramifications in many national and international health organizations. We know that in many speeches Bill Gates has theorized about using the pandemic to reduce the world population, and that he holds the patent on population health tracking systems, as well as a payment system that interfaces with the tracking chip. To say that Gates is a philanthropist is like saying that Jack the Ripper was a fan of anatomy.
I would like to recall, confirming the conflict of interest of international institutions with regard to their sponsors, that Bill Gates and George Soros gave about 1.4 million euros to the Council of Europe between 2004 and 2013 and about 690,000 euros between 2006 and 2014, effecting “a real privatization of international organizations and, what is worse, of human rights” (here), as denounced by the French lawyer Grégor Puppinck, the Director of the European Center for Law and Justice.
The purpose of Gates, Soros and other “tycoons” committed to the globalist agenda is the decimation of the world population, the enslavement of the masses and the concentration of power and finance in the hands of a few criminals who aim at world domination and the preparation of the coming of the Antichrist. In the face of this infernal plan, the tool of the Covid-19 virus to impose vaccines that make billions of people chronically ill is perfectly coherent with their claims and with the unfortunate complicity of religious and political leaders from all over the world, including Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who, as we know, has betrayed Chinese Catholics with the Beijing agreement, handing the laity and hierarchy over into the hands of the schismatic sect under the orders of the Communist Party, in exchange for generous funding.
7. You recently mentioned in an interview that “the Secretary-General of the United Nations recently stated that the virus was used to suppress dissent.” Could you tell us more about what the Secretary-General said?
The statements of the Secretary-General of the United Nations can be understood both as an accusation and as a warning to nations not to proceed with the suppression of dissent, as well as an acknowledgment of the real intentions of the elite. Let’s just say that this statement confirms the evidence of the facts, especially with regard to the effort to impose the vaccine passport and with it the mass vaccine or discrimination against those who do not accept being inoculated. I do not exclude that this admission may serve also as a way to assuage dissenters, making them believe that the UN is extraneous to the globalist plan.
8. Could it be that we are already at a point where the global elites working for a Global Reset are effectively aligned with China, independently of China’s dictatorial rule of its people?
The Chinese dictatorship is the paradigm of what awaits the entire world, if the alliance between liberalists and communists becomes definitively sealed. China demonstrates that dictatorship is the only possible form for imposing the Great Reset on the masses, replicating in a form adapted to today’s situation what Mao Zedong did with the Great Cultural Revolution in the 1960’s. Nonetheless, I believe that, at a certain point, the goals of the Great Reset and the goals of China will no longer coincide, especially when it comes to abolishing the debt of nations from which China collects enormous interest: it would find itself deprived overnight of an economic power over other nations which it is not willing to give up, unless an alternative that is equally profitable from the financial and political point of view is proposed.
9. Since we have imitated China’s lockdown rules, are we to expect that the West will also be more and more inclined to imitate China’s suppression of political dissent and religious groups, especially Catholics and in general Christians?
It seems clear to me, as I have just said, that the model of dictatorship currently in force in China will have to be applied also to those nations on which the Great Reset is to be imposed: civil, political, and religious dissent is neither contemplated nor tolerated, above all when it demonstrates the grotesque conspiracy of the New World Order against the peoples of the world with valid arguments and obvious proofs. The indications have already been present for some time in the West and in the “free” nations: ruthless censorship on social media, the total subservience of the mainstream media, exasperated control of the life of individuals, tracking of movements, and last but not least, so-called “social credit,” which has already been adopted in China and that some suggest should also be used by us.
Social credit is used to assign each citizen a score that is meant to indicate his or her reliability in the eyes of the State, on the basis of information possessed by the government based on the analysis of big data regarding the economic and social condition of its citizens. In essence it is a form of mass surveillance aimed at classifying individuals and companies, with the possibility of excluding individuals and organizations from social life whenever they do not respect the parameters decided on by the government. Every citizen is rewarded or punished on the basis of his own behavior. Some types of punishment include being banned from flying, being excluded from private schools, having one’s internet connection slowed down, being excluded from high-prestige jobs, not being allowed to book stays in hotels, and finally being registered on a public ban list. If we consider the measures that are being adopted thanks to the pandemic regarding the “vaccination passport,” it seems to me that the Chinese model is already on its way to being implemented almost everywhere.
As regards the repression of religious dissent, it should be noted that Bergoglio has demonstrated that he wants to replace the Catholic Church with an ecumenical and globalist structure that preserves only the name or the “brand” of the Spouse of Christ. It is no coincidence that even in Catholic circles there is an ever stronger delegitimization of those who are not willing to renounce the Faith in the name of subservience to the dominant ideology; and, on the opposite front, the Holy See is careful not to condemn the heterodox doctrines promoted by various Bishops’ Conferences, beginning with those in Germany, Belgium, and Holland. Indeed, the ideological basis of those doctrines – for example the blessings of sodomitical couples or religious indifferentism promoted by so-called ecumenical dialogue – is found in the “magisterium” of Bergoglio and is coherent with the heretical approach begun by Vatican II, which began the process of the dissolution of traditional society which followed the revolution of 1968 in Europe and America and, as we were saying, the Cultural Revolution in China.
10. In light of a possible growing collaboration between the Global Elites of the Great Reset and China, working toward a less free society, what do you think about Our Lady of Fatima’s warning that without a proper consecration of Russia, Russia would spread its errors throughout the world, with Communism being her main error?
The failure to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary led to the spread of Communism throughout the world; today we see Communism allied with the other sworn enemy of Christianity, Liberalism. This infernal alliance is meant to lead to the establishment of the New Order and the advent of the Antichrist. But let’s not forget that Our Lady has said that, before the final persecution, the world will enjoy a period of peace. I think that the Great Reset and the Satanic project of the New Order under the Masonic Synarchy has not yet managed to impose itself, even if we have come very close to it. I hope and pray that Providence is using this pseudo-pandemic to show us the dystopian world that awaits us if we do not return to God, if we persist in offending Him and violating His Commandments, if we deny the divine Kingship of Our Lord, preferring instead to live under the tyranny of Evil. Many people who up until yesterday were still convinced of the goodness of the globalist project and its compatibility with the Faith are beginning to understand how anti-human and antichristic it is. Perhaps all is not lost, if we know how to understand that there is no peace except where Christ is recognized as King: pax Christi in regno Christi. Those who believe they can build a prosperous and peaceful society without placing its foundation on the rock of Our Lord will have the same end as those who wanted to build the Tower of Babel to challenge God. Dextera tua, Domine, magnificata est in fortitudine: dextera tua, Domine, percussit inimicum – Thy right hand, O Lord, is magnified in strength: thy right hand, O Lord, hath slain the enemy (Ex 15:6).
11. What can we Catholics do in order to stop such a frightening process throughout the world and restore our constitutional liberties that have been encroached upon and limited in the name of a health crisis?
The violation of “constitutional liberties” is only one aspect of the problem: before this there is the violation of the Law of God, in the name of which abortion, euthanasia, sodomy and the worst perversions are called “rights,” while in fact they represent a challenge to the Majesty of God. Let us remember this well: Deus non irridetur – God is not mocked (Gal 6: 7) – one cannot play games with God, let alone challenge Him. In order to stop this infernal race towards the abyss we have only one solution: to change our lives by radically converting; to evangelize those who do not believe by word and example; to pray to the Lord asking Him to make the Hierarchy of the Church return to being a witness of Christ and not a slave of the world; to invoke the Most Holy Virgin, asking Her to grant us a holy and God-fearing Pope, who will carry himself as a new prophet in this Nineveh that is the modern world, admonishing the powerful of the earth as John Paul II still knew how to do on fundamental themes like respect for life from conception to natural death or the family.
Let’s stop believing that we can do without God, thinking that it is enough to follow any creed we like in order to be saved, or that the One and Triune God who has revealed Himself to us and Who sacrificed His Only-Begotten Son for our salvation can be placed on the same level as false and lying idols, beginning with the accursed pachamama.
Rather, let us seek to make Christ reign above all in our hearts, and, as a result, in our families, so that he may also reign in our societies. If we know how to be the salt of the earth (Mt 5:13) for the restoration of the Kingdom of Our Lord, society can only benefit from it; if instead we go along with the infernal plan of the Great Reset in the name of an impossible brotherhood between Good and Evil, we will be inexorably destined to the condemnation of being trampled on by men (ibid.), along with the enemies of God.

Well my Christian Brother; WELL DONE! This is perfect timing because God Himself is working with us through the Holy Spirit, as Jesus Christ walks with all of His faithful every step of the way.
Today I had to respond to a dear Christian Sister’s sweet heartfelt comment on one of my blog postings, for which I just completed this long response comment before opening this incredible blog posting of yours; that was waiting in my incoming cue at the top moments ago! I want to include the whole comment here with many links to previous blog posting that relate or actually tie-in very well here!
Thank you Pam… very nice of you to bring your clear and truthful perspective to this. Absolutely true how there are so many people with a distorted sense of reality or lack of compassion for the actual victims throughout the ages! We can go back to the actual history of what the Nation of Islam has really been doing for thousands of years and see how they were brutal to not just the Jews but any nations they invaded; pillaging, killing and making slaves out of all their conquered. I think many people these days even if we do live in such a time with so much easy access to information aren’t really interested in understanding and finding truth as much as they are interested in staying in their warped mind-set to hate and cause trouble, which to me points out that evil is getting hold of countless numbers of people now!
When one examines the facts and sees how a whole religion is actually not; but is instead a former faith based on Old Testament teachings that was poisoned and manipulated to become a cult or political ideology hell-bent on conquering or destroying; which is nothing but blood-lust being propagated toward anyone outside of that cult, especially Jews and Christians being so predominate in the region. Anyone wanting to understand this problem should read the fantastic accounting of the Middle East and surrounding regions in the book “Sword and Scimitar” as it pertains to the truth and real culprits that have not allowed peace to flourish and never will in my humble opinion. Raymond Ibrahim of Egyptian ancestry, a top scholar and expert in this subject knowing all the languages and having extensively studied the original texts and manuscripts over many years has really provided a great historical accounting of the conflicts that have continually plagued the Middle East due to the Muslims and subsequent Crusades that were a reaction to being conquered for centuries! Then how the Crusades were a result of centuries of suffering under the tyrannical Muslims. I wrote something a couple of years ago when a Muslim was attacking my writing on another social media. It was Christmas day and I had to let this man know he can’t attack our Savior especially on Christmas day and not get my response.
Aツaz Your own words; “live the way you want and not dictate as you are just a human and not a messenger of GOD, like Jesus and Muhammad were.” Muslim hoax” I am wondering how you equate a “hoax” with facts of an Islamic Empire” Wonder NO MORE Aツaz , pay attention and learn of your blaspheming error! You have a huge inaccuracy that needs to be corrected! Saying that Jesus is another prophet like Muhammad is blasphemous. First Jesus was not a mere prophet but was God Himself and therefore the Redeemer and Savior of Mankind as he said. Muhammad was only a supposed prophet and there is irrefutable evidence in the historical text of the time he lived that points to his being an outright liar and heretic as well as a criminal and child molester along with his being a polygamist! The following statements are highly accurate and actually proven. “In 632, only months before he died, Muhammad apparently met for the first time with a Christian community as such. An official delegation of Christians, probably led by a bishop, came to Mecca from Najran in Yemen. After engaging the Christians in discussion, the Prophet is said to have realized that Christian teachings are indeed incompatible with Islam, after which the “revelation” followed that only Islam is acceptable to God as a religion. The Quran also says very specifically that those who refer to Jesus as God are blasphemers, and that Christians saying that Christ is the son of God is an imitation of Jews, who earlier had said that Ezra is the son of God. According to the Quran Jesus was only a servant; Jesus the son of Mary was no more than an apostle of God. Quranic verses dealing with Jesus’ death have been interpreted differently by commentators, but generally they have been taken to mean that Jesus did not die by crucifixion. For Christians the Quran has thus served as a denial of Jesus’ incarnation and death on the cross and of the reality of the Trinity.” (Oxford University Press)
These two points alone put Islam and the Muslims completely at odds with Jesus Christ and all Christians and are the enemies of such! Muhammad himself began this conflict and was the spoiler and Heretic directly attacking God’s plan as foretold by all the previous prophets going all the way back to Abraham. Things have been in conflict because of Muhammad ever since and are getting worse, this will not resolve until Islam is Chastised or obliterated as a fake religion started by a false prophet and therefore heretic! In Summary Muslims are in complete denial of what Jesus Christ said and who He was which makes them Anti-Christ and supportive of the Devil; and all that is unholy. Basically Muhammad started this Blasphemy back in 632 AD and outright declared War on Christendom! Islam you yourself stated is an EMPIRE which puts it in the category of being a Nation not a Religion! It is not a religion that is backed up with solid historical evidence and prophecy over time by many prophets other than what Muhammad said, he made it all up, the heretic!
Well, I went all out to give some of my own perspective here but this is a matter that truly is very disturbing because the Palestinians and pretty much all of the Muslim faithful who follow Islam are perpetuating this horrible lie and actually attacking Jesus Christ, all of we Christians and Jews when they carry on like they are now! This goes on and on and yet the squad rant like lunatics that they have some ground to stand on while they support evil. They shouldn’t even be allowed in our government, and so this shows just how corrupted things have gotten; because they are in it!
Politics in America have become and off the wall insane concoction of Lies and Propaganda to just mess with us all and keep us off balance; save for some who are trying to change some things, so as to instead strike some type of balance; but mostly it’s an exercise in futility now! Look where we are and how the last election went and what the Dem party is up to; nearly total madness. They want Marxist communism to gain more absolute power and control; they’ve become wicked not American!
In this audio you will hear Bella Dodd who was a leader of the Communist Party of America (CPUSA) in the 1930′ s and 1940’s. She explains what she did while working as a communist and then describes her conversion back to the Catholic Faith thanks to Archbishop Futlon Sheen. Dr. Dodd served as legal council (attorney) for the Communists. Her book, “School of Darkness” (1954) reveals that Communism was perpetrated by financiers “to control the common man” and to advance world tyranny. She also testified before the US House Un-American Activities Committee. Speaking as a former high ranking official of the American Communist Party, Mrs. Dodd said: “In the 1930s we put eleven hundred men into the priesthood in order to destroy the Church from within.”
The idea was for these men to be ordained and progress to positions of influence and authority as Monsignors and Bishops. A dozen…

Matthew 25:21 says, “His master replied, ‘Well done my good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!”
Sir, I see how you have become so weary and disillusioned! But remember you are in a spiritual warfare and also a most unprecedented time when the Devil is getting his due in so many localities and even in the Holy Mother Church that Jesus Christ Established! Please hear me out if you will! I do see your discouragement and it’s valid; you didn’t do anything to bring this upon yourself other than to be a virtuous young man who chose a most beautiful vocation that is in peril now because the whole world is! The world needs you and many more like you to stand ready for Christ and do the will of our Father in heaven. I believe He inspired you in the first place so the battles are many and severe; but now is the time to face all adversity in order to grow that virtue and faith that’s in you; then to put on the spiritual armor that only God the Father through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ can provide to his humblest servants!
And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. Matthew 16:18
We have that same Church that Jesus proclaimed to Peter ordaining him and that Church to continue; against even hell itself can’t ever defeat it!
We must not throw out the baby with the dirty bath water ever! So too our Church has been attacked, contaminated and stained with filth and sin, even blasphemy over many years; doing much harm and even self-destruction from within by evil cohorts! As you know a Captain can’t abandon ship and many of his devoted officers would and do offer to stay the course. Similarly as I see it the head of our foundational Church that Jesus Christ gave to us by suffering on that cross for our sins can’t abandon it under any circumstances; as too, many of the shepherds or officers of the Church, its Priests should not!
I could tell you about my own challenges that have been horrendous and inflicted by the acts of others upon me which I know were influenced by the most diabolical forces in existence! Now I know I must never quit or give in to those enemies of darkness that seeks the destruction of all of us; our Lord’s Church! I think I can help and will certainly try if you would allow me to offer my personal experience and insight through my faith in Jesus Christ and His Church.
For now please be patient and carry on doing all the good you do each day! Also for now; I just request that you read my narrative comment to this other CP&S article they posted today! Soon I hope we can pick up from there and find peace and actual closure to this personal and painful dilemma you are now facing!
God bless you and I thank you for all you have done already and will do going forward! Amen.
Editor’s note: we received this submission from an anonymous seminarian, and have chosen to run it as such. It is the cry — and the challenge — of a child to a neglectful father: “Why weren’t you there to protect me when that was your job?” It’s the cry — and the challenge — of a man who has given his life to a cause, only to discover that the guardians of that cause no longer believe in it.
It’s a cry of the heart and a challenge to our shepherds that many of us know all too well. It is a calling out that expects no answer, and to which none is likely to be given. We implore your prayers for the author, and for all of the faithful who find themselves where he is in these dark times.
I’m finishing up my theology studies and planning…
mmvc: Excellent suggestion and you are Spot-On! I refuse to get into any arguments with anyone which to me is a waste of my time! I know what I know and I also know how to seek truth and it doesn’t come by arguing with rabble-rouse minions online; totally a waste of energy! I will say this; the Devil is showing up anywhere and everywhere he can now so anyone that thinks this is not Satanic and Diabolical is to me a lost soul and needs much prayer and intercession!
Let’s not brush off how Bergoglio brought pagan human sacrifice artifacts into the Saint Peter’s Church Alter; for dear Pete’s sake!~ All human beings are susceptible to temptation and sin so that means the Devil can show up wherever any people are! I’ve run into people that are demonically influenced left and right! Then there are those who are actually possessed by demons.
The dilapidated condition of the political and commerce systems alone should signal to anyone who can discern that the Devil is pushing it all to the limit now, and that this is actually a most unprecedented time we are in! I don’t like to send out fear at all having most of my life been an eternal optimist and positive minded person; but that had to be checked or put aside at the door now in a manner of speaking based on what I’ve experienced and been through for over 15 years and so I assure you evil has your number and is working against you continually! Don’t get high on any damn horse or get any stupid attitudinal thing going no matter who you think you are! If you or anyone you know is like that; that person needs to get down on their knees or even belly and beg for God’s Mercy; you’re in extreme danger spiritually!
So unfortunately I must tell you most of the world if not all of it judging by the condition of the Catholic Church alone has given us plenty to be extremely concerned, worried and even feeling fear about these things; and therefore most people should have a natural fear reaction at least, to what we’ve all been going though and witnessing, excluding sociopaths, which there are many of out there; because there really is so much that can go wrong very quickly now in this digital madcap world coupled with the amount of diabolical evil that has infested our Church, governments, societies, culture, schools, universities, corporations, social media and let’s just say really; how there isn’t much if anything that is held with the highest esteem as being sacred anymore! If people don’t get it or see where I’m coming from; then so be it! By what we all have witnessed for over a year I tell you, I see multitudes of human beings that will run off the cliff together if instructed to do so, by some of the most devious and diabolical persons this good old earth has had on it; who are presently in major positions of authority and influence!
I can only suggest to anyone who truly cares and wants to do God’s will while they have time to do so, that he or she read Holy Scriptures daily and pray fervently to Jesus Christ from their heart of hearts for Almighty God’s deliverance from this madhouse the human race has now formulated via; giving the Devil his due! We are on the precipice and we need Jesus Christ to save us; not some damned vaccine which is all based on fraud and lies. Seek the Lord and ask Mother Mary along with all the saints and angels to pray for us! Amen.
God bless you.
Brazil May 15, 2021 – Brazil’s Christ the Redeemer Statue Lights up for Vaccine Equality REUTERS/Pilar Olivares
Members of the United Vaccine Movement pose in front of the Christ the Redeemer statue as the message “Vaccine Saves” is projected on it, to make the population aware of the importance of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) vaccine in Rio de Janeiro.
Time to offer prayers of reparation for yet another blasphemy!
This is another sad but true escalation of the hatred and evil being directed at Israel by Hamas which we know is a Terrorist Proxy for Iran.
We need to pray devoutly to God Almighty through our Savior Jesus Christ! This is prophecy unfolding in our time and with the evil that has infested our US government we know that everything will get much worse. These are a most dire of times we all face; so pray for our brothers and sisters in Israel as I know many of them care about we Americans and pray for us as well.
