All persons are bound to seek the truth in those things which regard God and his Church and by virtue of divine law are bound by the obligation and possess the right of embracing and observing the truth which they have come to know.
§ I: Considerations on the Catholic Church
To be discerned in this, their logical order:
(Newer considerations found in §III)
On Holy Hope
“Hope has two beautiful daughters; their names are Anger and Courage. Anger at the way things are, and Courage to see that they do not remain as they are.”
St. Augustine
“He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well as unjust.”
St. Thomas Aquinas
This holy anger burns within the just man. It burns with, and is fed by, the fire of perfect Charity: the Love of God. It engulfs and destroys the vice of human respect, while building and sustaining the virtue of Contempt of the World. It contemns the judgements of the world. And it never compromises.
Now we are on the same page.
S.M.M.
On the Finality of Truth
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life.”
Our Blessed Lord
“The truth is like a lion. You don’t have to defend it. Let it loose. It will defend itself.”
St. Augustine
To reject the most fundamental property of a thing is to reject the thing itself. And the most fundamental property of Truth itself, is its finality. Our Lord shows us what occurs when the Truth is spoken, without a shadow of alteration: without a shadow of compromise: discourse of interpretation and debate of revision cease: we are left only with the discernment of action. This action we then take (whether for or against the Truth) reflects the Finality of Truth Itself: of Truth Himself. And from thence are we judged by Him on our actions: our works.
But to reject this finality, and to instead seek (or even consent to, through silence and false obedience) continued discourse, debate, interpretation, and revision, after the Truth has already been made known and taught by the Church and Her Saints, is a complete rejection of Truth Itself, through the rejection of Its most fundamental property: the Finality. This rejection of the Finality of Truth is an attempt to avoid the Judgement of our works.
And therein lies the wicked fruit of the Second Vatican Council. The ambiguity of the Council (both in the Documents, and the Application thereof) has been decried by many Prelates over the decades, and represents the rejection of the Finality of Truth: the rejection of Truth Itself: the rejection of Truth Himself. The legitimacy of the Council is not in question: it was legitimately evil, as foretold us by the Blessed Mother. Nor was the Council heretical: All heresy is evil, but not all evil is heresy. Therefore, we must judge it by its fruits. And the fruits are well known now: the inversion of Truth, the obscuring and acceptance of deadly sin, the condemnation of the Precepts and Doctrine of the Faith, the approval of the sins that cry out to Heaven for vengeance: Transvestites approved as Godparents at Baptisms: Sodomy accepted: the Hierarchy inverted through the Synodal Way: the fundamental inversion of Good and Evil. And so the Pope closing the Council declared it to be non-binding on the Faithful.
Yet, for the Modernist Heretics and their footstools in the traditional Church, submission to this non-binding rejection of the Finality of Truth is mandatory. They publicly demand the same, and heretically declare this Council to have somehow erased and re-opened for interpretation and revision all previous Teachings of the Saints and the Church, and especially the Council of Trent.
This is not the first time the devil has deployed this most subtle and most wily of his deceptions against the Spouse: he was successful once before as well: in the Garden. Eve ate of the fruit because she wanted more knowledge; more interpretation of Truth: above and beyond what Almighty God had given and decreed to be Final. Eve did not so much reject the Truth of God’s command, as she rejected the Finality of the Truth.
And so the poisoned fruit has been eaten: The Finality of Truth has been rejected. Synodality, discussion, interpretation, and revision of Teaching have now given us blatant and public Heresy and Apostacy throughout nearly all who claim Catholicism. And a foul stench of those whose silence, false obedience, and unholy submission have allowed the rejection of the Finality of Truth, now permeates throughout: even throughout what small bastions of the Faithful remain.
Do not be deceived: the traditional teachings of the Church (and the Saints from whom these teachings are given to us) are Final: Judgement and Eternity both reflect the Finality of Truth. No amount of ear-itching by the Priests, the Prelates, the intelligentsia, or the laity will ever change the Truth of the Catholic Church.
Quo Primum is still in effect. It has never been abrogated. And discernable action must now replace the foul odor of the consent of silence.
S.M.M.
On Holy Mother Church
“As Eve was formed from the sleeping Adam’s side, so the Church was born from the pierced heart of Christ hanging dead on the cross.”
St. Ambrose
“Preach the Truth as if you had a million voices. It is silence that kills the world.”
St. Catherine of Siena
The Catholic Church was born from the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus on the Cross. And so, there is no thing, and no man on this earth that should be withheld from the defense of the Church.
Therefore, to the Faithful: Give all now. For many are heard to speak with gay presumption of the coming of Martyrdom, but very few are seen willing to sacrifice the benefits which Almighty God has given along the way. And unwilling to give back even the good things that have been given, how could one ever merit a greater gift? Is there no one left willing to give his little pile of bricks for the pure golden streets of Heaven? Therefore: Give all now: Defend the Church. Speak the Truth now, when it is most certainly out of season.
To the Lukewarm: Do not be so. For time runs short now. And it is through silence and false obedience that the modernist heretics and apostates have gained the power of the world in the Church. And remember well: the Just shall glorify Almighty God when the lukewarm are cast into hell. Do not be lukewarm.
And to the heretics, apostates, and their effeminate servants in the Church: Your rejection of the Finality of Truth, and the Teachings of the Saints, is an attack on the Church Herself, and the Sacred Heart from whence She was born. So now you know, Who you are fighting. Therefore: repent: For more Glory is given to God from the repentance of one sinner, than ninety-nine Just men. Repent, and revert to the unchangeable teachings of Holy Mother Church and Her Saints. Time runneth short.
S.M.M.
On Eternal Unity
“That they all may be one, as thou, Father, in me, and I in thee; that they also may be one in us; that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.”
John 17.21
“Then he shall say to them also that shall be on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into everlasting fire which was prepared for the devil and his angels.”
Matthew 25.41
One of the most fundamental results of the Judgement is that we will be united for eternity with those to whom we have united ourselves while on this earth. How then, does one expect to be united in Almighty God, with the very Saints whose teachings one has already rejected? Certainly, it will not be so.
The Teachings of the Saints, and especially the Doctors of the Church, are key to the Teachings of the Church, and our Understanding of the same. And so, by uniting ourselves to these teachings we unite ourselves to the Church, and the same Saints which currently enjoy the True Unity of the Beatific Vision, and who intercede for us before Almighty God. But when we reject these Teachings, we separate ourselves from and invert this Unity: we separate ourselves from the Communion of Saints. This general practice of rejecting the teachings of the Saints is one of the pillars of the modernist “catholic” church, and has now infiltrated even to those who claim to hold onto Tradition, and the true Teachings of the Church. And through this inversion of Truth, and as a result of the rejection of the Finality of the same, the virtues of Obedience and Unity have been directed to the creature, not the Creator, while True Obedience and Unity have been rejected. This is what happens when we reject the Teachings of the Saints and the Church.
Again: How can one presume to be united for eternity with the very same Saints whose teachings one has rejected? If we reject Quo Primum, should we expect St. Pius V (and all the Saint Popes) to embrace us and applaud our false obedience at the Judgement? Or perhaps what will happen is exactly what is said in the final paragraph of the same Document: “…he will incur the wrath of Almighty God and of the Blessed Apostles Peter and Paul.”
Likewise, to say “Perhaps St. Bellarmine was wrong”, or “Perhaps St. Bellarmine did not have access to all the information” is to reject not only the teachings of the Doctor of the Church, but also the Holy Church Fathers whom St. Bellarmine is drawing his teaching from. It is to say that these Saints did not have Knowledge and Understanding of what they were teaching: which is to say that these Saints did not have these Gifts of the Holy Ghost: which is to presume for oneself the very Gifts one denies these Saints had themselves. Oh, what damnable folly!
It is certain, that in order to say that Bergoglio is the Pope you first must reject the teachings of the two dozen (or more) Saints and Councils (including St. Bellarmine, and the Holy Fathers of the Church), who all taught (in different words) that it was impossible for the Vicar of Christ to be a formal, manifest heretic.
And know this: when you walk over that rolling hill, and through the darkness see that army of demons set in battle array against you alone: you will need the help of every Saint you can get.
Saint Bellarmine was not wrong: Bergoglio is not and never was the Pope. Be careful now, who your soul is united to through silence, indifference, and inaction: For you will be united to the same, forever.
S.M.M
On the Unity of Saints
“Do all you can to work in unity”
St. Mary Mackillop
“Modernists place the foundation of religious philosophy in that doctrine which is usually called Agnosticism.”
St. Pius X
“The power of Peter’s keys does not extend to the point that the Supreme Pontiff can declare “not sin” what is sin, or “sin” that which is not sin. In fact, this would be to call evil good, and good evil, something that always has been and will be very far from the one who is the Head of the Church, the pillar and foundation of truth.”
St. Bellarmine
The following is a list, compiled by a Dr. Edmund Mazza, of the Saints and Councils who all taught, in different words, that the manifest heresy and apostacy which we have now seen come from the very Throne of Saint Peter would be impossible:
Pope St. Lucius I
Pope St. Felix I
Pope St. Damasus I
Pope St. Innocent I
Pope St. Gelasius I
The Sixth Ecumenical Council
The Ecumenical Council of Constantinople
Pope St. Leo IX
Pope St. Gregory VII
St. Bernard of Clairvaux
St. Thomas Aquinas
St. Robert Bellarmine
The Ecumenical Council of Vatican I
Blessed Pope Pius IX
Pope St. Leo XIII
Venerable Pope Pius XII
The list of Saints who taught that it might even be possible for the Vicar of Christ to be a manifest heretic is empty.
To which list is your eternal unity now given?
Enough of the lies of the modernist heretics, the Intelligentsia, and their lukewarm footstools in the Church. The sheep are not deceived. For to be united with the modernist heretics requires one to reject the eternal unity of the Saints.
Enough of the false unity and false obedience: Let loose the Lion of Truth, and defend Holy Mother Church. Defend the Papacy, without which we are no better than the protestants. Fight the good fight: Now.
S.M.M.
On the Papacy
“And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.”
“My sheep hear my voice: and I know them, and they follow me.”
“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.”
Our Blessed Lord
“At the time of this tribulation a man, not canonically elected, will be raised to the Pontificate, who, by his cunning, will endeavor to draw many into error and death.”
St. Francis of Assisi
In 2023, an Auxiliary Bishop in Asia, well respected amongst traditional Catholics, and who is seen to love Holy Mother Church, quoted St. Bellarmine and announced that “There is no authority to declare or consider an elected and generally accepted Pope as an invalid Pope.”
And nearly all in the traditional Church who had been questioning the legitimacy of Bergoglio became silent, and soon proposed that those who would continue to speak of Bergoglio as an Antipope, False Prophet, or Usurper are schismatic. And so, nearly all happily returned to the service of their communities and the world through false obedience, without any regard to read St. Bellarmine, the Holy Fathers of the Church, or Canon Law. And now we see even some “excommunicated” for speaking the Truth on this matter, while other Faithful are refused the Sacraments, even for their children.
This is a grave disservice to Holy Mother Church, and a grave offence against the Mystical Body of Christ. The Auxiliary Bishop in Asia was wrong.
In Book II Ch. XXVI-XXVII of St Bellarmine’s De Controversiis Tomus II, the Doctor of the Church teaches that no man “whether secular, or ecclesiastical, nor even gathered together in a council” may judge the Pontiff.
And yet, only three chapters later, he addresses the question of the possibility of a heretical Pope, and answers the five opinions on the matter as follows:
1: That the Pope cannot be a heretic, and hence would not be deposed in any case. St. Bellarmine calls this opinion “probable, and easily defended”.
2: That a Pope that falls into heresy (even internally) is deposed by God and ceases to be Pope (ipso facto). St. Bellarmine disproves this as a possibility.
3: That a Pope who is a heretic is not deposed and cannot be deposed by the Church. St. Bellarmine disproves this as a possibility.
4: That a heretical Pope is not ipso facto deposed, but must be deposed by the Church. St. Bellarmine disproves this as a possibility.
5: That a Pope who is a manifest heretic, ceases in himself to be Pope, as he is no longer a member of the body of the Church, and therefore can be judged and punished by the Church. St. Bellarmine call this a “true opinion”.
And so we have three teachings on this matter from the Doctor of the Church, namely: That no one may judge the Pope: That it is impossible for the Pope to be a manifest heretic: That a heretic Pope must be judged by the Church.
Here the minds of the intelligentsia are blinded to the Truth, as are those in the Church who are blinded through sin and false obedience.
But the sheep hear and understand: It is precisely because it is impossible for the Pope to be a formal, manifest heretic, that the Church Herself renders judgment and punishment upon a heretic and apostate who claims to be the Pope. Therefore, St. Bellarmine affirms that no man may judge the Pope: For if there were to appear one as a manifest heretic, the Church would know that he is not the Pope, and render judgement accordingly. It is precisely because it is impossible, that the Church Herself, and not a man, nor even a Council, must judge the matter. Notably, the number of people who believe the heretic to be Pope matters not: neither does the number of those who See and Understand the heresy: It is impossible that a manifest heretic could ever hold the Papacy.
Many are confused because they falsely believe that all (or even most) who claim to be in the Church are, in fact, Catholic. But this is not the case. In this, our corrupt age, so very, very many of those who claim Catholicism have already separated their souls from the Church through heresy and denial of Church Doctrine. This is a problem in our Hierarchy as well, and tends to false obedience and false unity. Do not confuse the worldly power a heretic might have been given, or usurped, with the Authority of the Vicar of Christ, or of the Church Herself, on earth. False unity and false obedience have no impact on the declaration of Truth, or on the unity of the Faithful with the teachings of the Saints. The Church Herself: the Mystical Body of Christ, holds the Authority to declare impossible what has always been known to be impossible. The modernist heretics and those who seek false unity with the same have no impact on this Authority.
Furthermore, this is not a matter of removing a sitting Pontiff, as the intelligentsia and the effeminate lukewarm would have us believe: This is a matter of declaring under the Authority of Holy Mother Church that Jorge Bergoglio is a formal, manifest heretic (whose heresy is not in question, and was immediately evident), and therefore is not (nor has ever been) the Pope. This Authority is held in the Mitre and Crosier, and passed on to every Successor of the Apostles.
Bergoglio is not the Pope: he only fulfills the prophesy of St. Francis.
Therefore: Let loose the Lion of Truth: He will defend Himself. It is the duty of the laity under Canon Law to speak the Truth. And it is the duty of a Successor, holding the Authority of Holy Mother Church, to let loose the Lion of Truth, and, speaking for the Mystical Body of Christ, and rendering an account of what has already occurred, end the Apostacy.
Esto Vir. Esto Sanctus. Be here now.
S.M.M.
On the Authority of a Word
“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we saw his glory, the glory as it were of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
John 1:14
“Quapropter bene conscius ponderis huius actus plena libertate declaro me ministerio Episcopi Romae, Successoris Sancti Petri, mihi per manus Cardinalium die 19 aprilis MMV commisso renuntiare ita ut a die 28 februarii MMXIII, hora 20, sedes Romae, sedes Sancti Petri vacet et Conclave ad eligendum novum Summum Pontificem ab his quibus competit convocandum esse.”
Pope Benedict XVI, Declaratio
Per Canon Law, a Pope who resigns must resign his Office (Munus). This is unequivocal, and cannot be denied. Even the Pope is subject to the Law. Benedict XVI did not resign his Office (Munus): only the Ministry (Ministerio). He used the word Ministerio to declare what he was resigning, despite previously using the word Munus in his Declaratio, indicating that he knew there was a difference.
Therefore, there truly are only two possibilities:
I: The words Munus and Ministerio are interchangeable, and therefore the resignation is indeed valid.
This argument is proved false as the words are not interchangeable when used in Canon Law. Latin is not a Babylonian tongue as ours is: every word is different and has different meaning. There is no ambiguity in Latin when it is used in Canon Law. Furthermore, Canon Law specifically states that the Munus must be resigned. Therefore the resignation of a Pope must include the resignation of the Munus. Pope Benedict’s did not. Pope Benedict XVI did not resign his Office. Per Canon Law his resignation was invalid. The words Munus and Ministerio are not interchangeable.
II: The words Munus and Ministerio are not interchangeable, and therefore the resignation is invalid.
This argument is proved true, as shown above. The resignation of Pope Benedict XVI was invalid, per Canon Law. He did not resign his Munus (Office). He only resigned his Ministerio (Ministry). This invalidates the resignation, per Canon Law.
Everything else that surrounds this most grave question is an external occurrence and result of Benedict’s failed Resignation: The heresy and apostacy of Bergoglio is allowed by God to show us that he is not the Vicar of Christ. Benedict living at the Vatican, dressing as the Pope, and giving “My Apostolic Blessing” for over ten years was given to show us who was still the Pope and Vicar of Christ.
All the interpretation the of intention and design of Benedict’s Declaratio by the Intelligentsia is inconsequential to the Flock of Christ as well. The intent of Benedict XVI to bifurcate the Papacy (in Substantial Error per Cannon Law, thereby again rendering the Resignation invalid) is key to the fact that he failed to properly resign his Office under the Law, but simply resulted in his failure to submit a resignation in proper Form, and under the Law. It truly is this simple: Benedict XVI failed to submit a proper resignation as required under Canon Law. Therefore, his resignation was invalid, and he retained the Papacy (whether he knew it or not, and whether he intended it or not) until his death.
Furthermore, it must be noted that the principle of Universal Acceptance cannot remove a valid Pope and replace him with an imposter, just as it cannot provide the Body with a Head when one was already in place. And neither can Supplet Ecclesia supply to the Faithful what we already had: a valid Pope. It cannot supply to the Faithful a Heretic Usurper when the valid Pope was always in view.
Again: It is given to one holding in the Crosier the Authority of Holy Mother Church to render an account of what has already occurred.
Our Blessed Lord does not deceive us: but he does test us. Heretofore we have failed in this simple test of our Faith. For the Truth is always simple: always without confusion: always without a shadow of alteration. The Truth never requires the understanding or approval of the Intellegentsia, the modernist heretics, those who serve the world, or the lukewarm laity and hierarchy in the Church. The Truth requires only to be let loose.
For the Love of Almighty God: Defend Holy Mother Church from the abomination of apostacy standing in the High Place. Defend the souls who currently fall into hell daily (as snowflakes), having been deceived by the Usurper. How could anyone living now in the Church ever receive the Glory of Heaven without coming to Her defense in this, Her gravest hour of trial? Let loose the Truth. Let loose the Lion now. Time runneth short.
S.M.M.
On the Katekon
“Let no man deceive you by any means, for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposeth, and is lifted up above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself as if he were God. Remember you not, that when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now you know what withholdeth, that he may be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity already worketh; only that he who now holdeth, do hold, until he be taken out of the way.”
Saint Paul, 2 Thessalonians 2.3-7
The Apostle writes in Greek of the Katekon, who withholds Antichrist, as both a man, and a thing. Therefore it is most probable that the Katekon is either the Papacy or the Eucharist. But it is very doubtful that the Enemy could attain the destruction of the Eucharist with the Papacy still in place. Furthermore, to cause the Perpetual Sacrifice to end is reserved for Antichrist himself, per St. Bellarmine. Therefore, it is most probable that the Katekon is the Papacy Itself.
Do you now see the urgency in defending the Papacy, and Holy Mother Church? Do you see the imminent danger of the false prophet? Do you see the real, deadly threat of the Bergoglian Anti-Church, and the Modernist Heretics who are ministers in the same? Do you see how, through false obedience and false unity, Antichrist will gain his ministers into the Church of Antichrist?
Those who seek delay, or presume that the current crisis of the Papacy in the Church will be fixed at a later date, by a later Pope, do a grave disservice, and unwittingly prepare great harm to the Church and the Faithful. They are deceived by the deadly false presumption of more given time. Do not delay in defending the Papacy, and the Church. Time runneth short now.
S.M.M.
On Schism
“Heresy is the obstinate denial or obstinate doubt after the reception of baptism of some truth which is to be believed by divine and Catholic faith; apostasy is the total repudiation of the Christian faith; schism is the refusal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff or of communion with the members of the Church subject to him.”
Canon 751
“Finally they cannot be numbered among the schismatics, who refuse to obey the Roman Pontiff because they consider his person to be suspect or doubtfully elected on account of rumors in circulation.”
F.X. Wernz, P. Vidal, Ius Canonicum
“If someone, for a reasonable motive, holds the person of the pope in suspicion and refuses his presence and even his jurisdiction, he does not commit the delict of schism, nor any other whatsoever.”
Cardinal Thomas Cajetan
“The world has grown rotten because of silence.”
St. Catherine of Siena
It could never be schismatic to unite one’s soul to the timeless teaching of the Catholic Church and the teaching of the Saints. The Truth does not change, because God does not change. Only the modernist heretics who hold the worldly power in the Church would ever claim differently.
It breaks the law of non-contradiction to unite your eternal soul to an apostate heretic, regardless of how many other heretics and effeminate footstools claim he is the Vicar of Christ. It is impossible. And the sheep are not deceived by those who claim what was once known to be heretical is now good.
Furthermore, to not correct those who are heretical and schismatic is an offence against true Charity. It is a grave Sin of Omission. And it exposes the entirety of the Mystical Body of Christ to grave eternal danger. Which is precisely why the duty of the Laity is to speak the Truth: Bergoglio is not the Pope, and the modernist heretics are the enemies of the Catholic Church.
To not speak the Truth is to consent through silence to the Enemy and the destruction of Holy Mother Church. Silence in this grave matter renders Charity false, and serves the world, and the devils, not Almighty God.
S.M.M.
On Sedevacantism
“Because his religion will be brotherhood of Man without the fatherhood of God, he will set up a counter church which will be the ape of the Church, because he, the Devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content, it will be a mystical body of the Antichrist that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ …”
Venerable Fulton Sheen
“Last night, from eleven to three, I had a most wonderful vision of two churches and two Popes and a variety of things, ancient and modern…. I saw the fatal consequences of this counterfeit church; I saw it increase; I saw heretics of all kinds flocking to the city. I saw the ever-increasing tepidity of the clergy, the circle of darkness ever widening.”
Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich
Be slow to condemn or contemn the so-called 1958 sedevacantists: for they do not compromise. And it is observable that those in the Church who are quick to condemn them are always the first to fly and seek for themselves the spiritual sodomy of compromise with the Enemy: the Modernist Heretics. The effeminate and lukewarm are shamed by those who do not compromise as they do: just as they are shamed by those who refuse false obedience and unholy submission to an apostate usurper squatting on the Throne of Saint Peter: hence the contempt, persecution, and even hatred of those who refuse to do so.
That being said: The sedevacantists must be corrected on two specific and most fundamental fallacies in their logic: The first being their assertion that the Second Vatican Council was heretical, and the second being their assertion that the vast majority of Priests are now invalidly ordained, resulting in the near-complete invalidity of the Mass and the Sacraments.
On the first point: The Council of Vatican II was not heretical. All heresy is evil, but not all evil is heresy: The rejection of the Finality of Truth by the Council, both in its Documents and in the implementation thereof, was a rejection of Truth: it was a rejection even of Truth Himself, by the modernists. And it certainly paved the way for the acceptance of all heresies, as it was the summation of the deadly synthesis of all heresies: namely Modernism. This was forewarned to us by many Pope Saints, and the Blessed Mother.
However, that does not de facto invalidate either the Pontificate of Paul VI, or even the council which he declared to be non-binding and pastoral in nature. Furthermore, while the New (world) Order Mass is most certainly a physical inversion of the True Mass, and is very lacking in the efficacy of Divine Beauty, real Sacrifice, and even Grace, it does not follow that its promulgation (and even acceptance by so very, very many) abrogated Quo Primum or the True Mass. It provided a means which the modernists have used to “overcome” the Traditional Church and the Mass itself. And yet, it cannot be said that it has overcome the Church at all: it simply gave to the heretics who were hiding therein that thing which they had long desired: and so they were given up to their iniquities. And neither can it be said that the heretics giving to themselves that which they had desired, somehow rendered broken the Apostolic Succession of the Apostles. This simply does not necessarily follow. The Papacy, as the Katekon in 2 Thessalonians Ch. 2, has persisted, albeit weakened and bruised: until the death of Benedict XVI.
Furthermore, it is a fallacy to not distinguish between formal, manifest heresy, and material heresy. It is the formal, manifest type of heresy which separates one from the Church: not material heresy. Therefore the instances of material heresy which can be seen from the Pontiffs since Venerable Pope Pius XII (and others before him) did not, in fact, separate them from the Church. The formal, manifest heresy and apostacy of Bergoglio is another matter entirely.
On the second fundamental fallacy of the sedevacantists: The Priesthood has not been broken, because the Succession of the Apostles has not been broken: therefore the Mass is still valid, and specifically the True Mass, still properly set in Its permanent place by Quo Primum. This is precisely where Holy Mother Church applies the principle of Supplet Ecclesia, and supplies what is lacking in Grace or Form to the Ordained Priest. Deo Gratias. The physical location of the True Church is within the façade built around Her: it is within, and even operating alongside, the False Church spoken of in so many prophesies. Which is precisely why and how Antichrist will impugn Her, and end the Perpetual Sacrifice.
Therefore, to the sedevacantists: Defend now our Holy Mother the Church. Give no consideration to the judgements of those who serve the world: Attend the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Re-enter the Battlefield of Faith, and do not sit idly by while this final battle now begins: For lying on your deathbed, having kept the Faith but having left the battlefield, you will see those who did fight, and who needed you in their defense, and beseeched you for help in this grave hour: and you will be filled with regret.
Therefore: Esto Vir. Esto Sanctus.
Be. Here. Now.

On the Nature of Spiritual Warfare
”It is Satan who has been introduced into the bosom of the Church and within a very short time will come to rule a false church.”
St. Padre Pio
“Behind those who accuse the church of Christ of being rigid there is only the perversion of the false prophets who attempt against the Truth of Christ himself.”
Venerable Pope Pius XII
“The enemy surrounds us, and we shall perish unless we fight. If we really fight, we are given assurance of victory.”
St. Francis de Sales
“Fight the good fight of faith: lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art called, and hast confessed a good confession before many witnesses.”
St. Paul, 1 Timothy 6.12
At the Battle of Lepanto, with the Enemy fleet bearing down on them in a horizontal formation, the Catholic fleet, extremely outnumbered but with an Army of Rosaries being said for them, turned and sailed in a single-file line directly at the center (the heart) of the enemy. This tactic in naval warfare had never been attempted, as it was presumed to be certain death. It was presumed that the left and right flanks of the enemy would engulf, surround, and destroy.
But in a miraculous victory, Catholicism triumphed and the Enemy was destroyed. And to this day the tactical maneuver is taught at Naval Warfare Colleges around the world. It is called “Crossing the T”. In reality, it makes the Sign of the Cross on the battlefield.
The nature of our current warfare is spiritual, yet far more deadly than temporal warfare. Eternity now hangs in the balance for a billion Catholic souls. Many millions have already gone to their Judgement having been deceived, either by themselves or by their Prelates, into thinking Bergoglio is the Pope, and therefore sodomy, transvestitism, moral relativism, and all service to the world is now commendable. They have believed in lying.
The duty of the laity is ardent prayer and penance, and to speak the Truth as St. Catherine best described: as if you had a million voices. Speak the Truth in all Charity (Love of God), and with the virtue of Contempt of the World, while having none of the vice of human respect. For our Prelates, the Duty is even more grave. And with great sorrow it must be said: Do not delay or wait on the Battlefield of Faith for anyone, whether Prelate or Layman: not even for family. For so very many now serve the Enemy, not the Church. So very many have already shown that in this spiritual warfare, their incompetence and effeminacy is only exceeded by their negligence in Duty. Therefore, do not delay.
Consider the Catholic example given to us by Almighty God at Lepanto: If the Catholic fleet had delayed the turn, they would have been destroyed. Consider well now the Soldiers of Christ who made that fateful turn: Certain of death, they nevertheless fought, and with all true Faith, Hope, and Charity, turned and attacked the Enemy. And sailing as individual ships, in a single line directly at the heart of the Enemy, they could not see the Unity they had: either with each other or the Army of Rosaries being said for them. They appeared alone as they arrived and engaged the Enemy. And many did die. But the Blessed Mother was with them, and the resulting Triumph was for the Glory of God.
Our Enemy is visible now in the form of the synthesis of all heresy: Modernism. And while the modernist heretics may hold all the worldly power in the Church, they hold none of the Authority. And, as they now bear down upon the Faithful, spreading every heresy and removing Latin Masses at every opportunity, the heart of the Enemy has become visible and exposed.
Gain your bearings, and make the turn: The Immaculate Heart of Mary will Triumph for the Glory of God.

§ II: Considerations on Spiritual Warfare
On Humility
“Let us consider my brethren our own great vileness, and how greatly we have offended almighty God, and let us humble ourselves before him, as much as we can possibly: let us be afraid to lift up our eyes towards heaven, and let us strike our breasts with that publican of the gospel, that almighty God may take pity and compassion upon us: let us enforce ourselves, and take arms against our own malice and wickedness: let us become judges over ourselves: and let every one of us say within himself: If our Lord hath been so reproachfully handled for my sake, if he have suffered so great torments and most grievous pains for the sins that I have committed, why should not I abase and despise myself, being the very person that hath sinned? God forbid, that I should ever presume any thing more of myself than of a most vile, and filthy dunghill, whose horrible stench even I myself cannot well abide. I am he that hath despised almighty God: I am he, that hath sought means to crucify him again upon the cross: and me thinketh that all the whole frame of this world crieth out with open voice against me: saying: This is he, that hath offended and despised our common Lord. This is that wicked and ungrateful wretched creature that hath rather been moved with the guileful baits of the devil, than with the great benefits of almighty God. This is he, that hath been more delighted with the malice of the devil, than with the bountiful goodness and favor of almighty God. This is he, that could never be induced to virtue and goodness with the fatherly loving cherishings, and entertainments of almighty God: neither could he ever be made afraid with his dreadful and terrible judgements. This is he, that hath (so much as lieth in him) defaced the power, wisdom, and goodness of almighty God, and brought them in contempt. This is he, that hath been more afraid to offend a seely weak man, than the omnipotency of God. This is he, that hath been more ashamed to commit a filthy act before a rude plough man of the country, than before the presence of almighty God. This is he, that hath rather loved, and chosen to enjoy a little stinking dung and mire here upon the earth, than the everlasting chief felicity in the kingdom of heaven. This is he, that hath fixed his eyes upon rotten, and corruptible creatures, and utterly neglected the creator. What shall I say more? There is nothing so filthy, nothing so abominable, that he hath refrained to commit in the presence of almighty God, without having any respect, or shame, of so great a majesty.”
– St. Bonaventure
That is the beginning of the virtue of Humility. And this is the result:
“O wonderful virtue! How great must thy riches be, seeing thou art thus commended to us! How can thy treasures be but notoriously known, seeing thou art by so many ways set out unto us! O humility, that art preached, and taught in all the whole life of our Savior Christ, sung, and praised by the mouth of his own most blessed mother! O most beautiful flower among virtues! O divine adamant, that drawest unto thee even the creator of all things! Whosoever he be that banisheth thee away, shall be banished away from almighty God, yea though he be in the highest place of heaven: And whosoever he be, that embraceth thee, shall be embraced of almighty God, yea although he be even the greatest sinner in the world. Great are thy graces, and marvelous are thy effects. Thou pleasest men: thou contentest the angels: thou confoundest the devils, and bindest the hands of the creator. Thou art the foundation of virtues, the death of vices, the glass of virgins, and the habitation of the most blessed trinity. Who so gathereth without thee, disperseth: who so buildeth, and not upon thee, pulleth down: And who so heapeth virtues together without thee, the dust carrieth them quite away before the face of the wind. Without thee the virgin is shut out of the gates of heaven, and with thee even the public sinner is received at the feet of Christ. Embrace this virtue of humility, O ye virgins, that hereby your virginity may be available unto you. Ye that be religious persons, see that you seek earnestly also for this virtue, for without it your religion is but vain, and to no purpose. And ye of the laity, seek no less for this virtue, than the religious do, that by the same ye may be delivered from the snares of this sinful world.”
– Venerable Louis of Granada
S.M.M.
On the Mathematical Probability of Salvation
“Many attain to faith, but few to the heavenly kingdom.”
St. Gregory
“There are few who are saved.”
St. Anselm
“Therefore, few are saved in comparison to those who are damned.”
St. Augustine
“Many are called, but few are chosen.”
Our Blessed Lord
Consider intently the famous sermon of Saint Leonard of Port Maurice, regarding the probability of Salvation. In addition to the teaching of all the whole Church, the Holy Fathers, and our Lord himself, Saint Leonard gives us two examples of when souls returned following their judgement in order that we might understand how few attain to the Heavenly Felicity of Eternal Life, versus how many are damned forever.
In the first instance, 5 out of 33,000 were saved: two went directly into Heaven, while three went to Purgatory. In the second instance, only three out of 60,000 were saved: all three went to Purgatory. The rest were damned. Combining these two instances, we see the percentage that were saved at that time to be .00008602, or .0086%. In other words, 99.9914% were damned to hell for all of eternity.
Certainly, there have been other times in history wherein the probability of salvation was much higher, as attested to by other Saints, in other times. But in this our corrupt age, which has inverted and perverted all Truth, and even removed from existence the very concept of Divine Justice, could any more than this be saved? And so the modernist heretics teach “All are saved”, while their footstools teach “All might be saved”. But how many could be saved, when nearly all consent through silence to grave sin and the rejection of the Teachings of the Church and Her Saints? How many could be saved, when so very few even attempt to defend the Church, and Truth Itself?
The rejection of this fundamental teaching, namely, the fewness of the saved, is a cornerstone of the servants of the world, the servants of the flesh, and the servants of the devils, who collectively have infiltrated Holy Mother Church. Beware these ministers of the false Church ruled by Satan (St. Pio), who seek to convince you that all, or at least most, are saved. They are the teachers with itching ears. They would have you believe that serving the world, and your community, will lead to salvation. They are the intelligentsia, and they deceive you, in order that they may believe in lying.
Contrary to the false shepherds, the traditional teachings of the Church and countless Saints have confirmed how few are actually saved, along with the Holy Scriptures which likewise confirm the near-mathematical certainty of damnation that we face: only two people out of the two million that left Egypt entered into the Promised Land: only four escaped the fires that rained down on Sodom and Gomorrah: only eight made it onto the Ark from all of humanity: these numbers given to us in order that we might understand how few are, in fact, saved. Consider now, the infinite Love our Lord shows us in His Passion: This is how much He loves us individually – that He would suffer what He did fully knowing how few would attain to this salvation, yet continuing the same specifically for those few souls who are saved.
Consider well the words of the Blessed Mother to the three children at Fatima, when they asked how long their recently-deceased friend would spend in Purgatory: “…until the end of time”. What sins could that young girl could have committed to warrant the horrible pains of Purgatory until the end of time? Certainly, a young friend of three children who were found worthy to converse with the Blessed Mother could not have been such a wretched sinner! Perhaps a secret grave sin that, even confessed, she still had attachment to? Perhaps habits of venial sins? What mathematical multiplier would need to be applied to this young girl’s sins before it equaled the average number which we, individually, have committed? 1,000? 5,000? Even a million? Perhaps more? And she burns in Purgatory until the end of time while we presume our own salvation? Certainly, a salvation rate of .0086% (and correlating damnation rate of 99.9914%) are, in fact, correct, when nearly all “Catholics” reject one or more of the Church’s traditional (official) teachings. And while the rest of the world openly blasphemes and worships themselves and false gods, at best, or demons, at worst? It is certain that very few are saved.
That being said: The lives of the Saints give us the example to follow, in order to merit Salvation. And what is common in all their lives? Humility, and Penance.
S.M.M.
On Penance
“Wherefore I will weep continually: I will lament my wretchedness like a poor miserable creature: I will never cease weeping, so long as I live in this vale of misery: I will expect if perhaps my most merciful Savior will vouchsafe to turn his pitiful eyes towards me: I will cast myself down at his feet: and with all the humility, and shame that I can, I will say unto him. O Lord I am that great enemy of thine, which in presence of thy divine eyes have committed most wicked, and abominable offences. I acknowledge myself to be guilty here before thee. I confess my wickedness to be so great, that although I alone should suffer all the pains and torments that both the devils, and damned persons do suffer in hell, yet should I not be able with all this to make a sufficient satisfaction for that, which my sins have deserved. Wherefore I beseech thee (O Lord) to cast the cloak of thy mercy over me thy poor, wretched, and sinful creature: and let the greatness of thy goodness overcome, and cover my wickedness. Let the most sweet loving father rejoice at the coming home again of his prodigal son. Let the good shepherd rejoice at the recovery of his lost sheep. Let the pitiful woman rejoice at the finding of her lost groat. O how happy and joyful shall that day be, when thou shalt cast thine arms about my neck, and give me the sweet kisses of peace!
Howbeit to obtain this gracious benefit, I know now what I will do. I will take arms even against myself: And I will be more cruel, and rigorous against myself, than any other. I will afflict and punish myself all manner of ways with labors and pains: and I will despise myself as a most stinking, and filthy dunghill. Yea I will rejoice when so ever I shall be despised, and dishonored, how soever the same shall happen unto me. I will be glad also, when my shame shall be discovered, and published abroad. And because I alone am not sufficient to abhor, and despise myself, I will join all creatures in the whole world unto me, and will desire to be punished, and despised by every one of them, forsomuch as I have despised the Creator of them all. This shall be unto me a treasure, which I will very earnestly desire: to wit: to heap pains and despites against myself, and to love them with hearty affection, that shall help me herein. All the consolations, and honors of this life, shall be a torment unto me: and I will accompt them all to be my most deceitful, and flattering enemies. I believe assuredly, that in case I shall thus do, I shall provoke all things (notwithstanding I have offended them) to take pity, and compassion upon me: and that those creatures, which before cried out against me will now after their manner pray, and entreat in my behalf. Wherefore I am contented that all dishonors, reproaches, and punishments do run upon me on every side, so that by them I may be brought to my most sweet, and merciful Lord. And as for all honor, pleasure, and delight, they shall be banished away quite from me: insomuch as the very names of them shall no more be heard in my house. In all things I will seek nothing else, but only the honor of my Lord God, and the contempt and confusion of myself.” – St. Bonaventure
Penance is the mathematical multiplier of Humility. Start multiplying.
S.M.M.
On Necessary Devotion
“Blessed is the man whose help is from thee: in his heart he hath disposed to ascend by steps, in the vale of tears, in the place which he hath set.”
Psalm 83
“Ask, and it shall be given you: seek, and you shall find: knock, and it shall be opened to you.”
Matthew 7.7
Every complex problem has a simple solution, and by the Infinite Mercy of our Lord, the Blessed Mother revealed to us at Fatima what is required of us laity in order that we might proceed to and through sanctification and gain salvation, against such overwhelming odds as we face. Sister Lucia herself confirmed these five basic requirements in her interview with Fr. Rafferty:
- Daily Rosary
- The daily offering of the sacrifices of our state of life.
- 1st Saturday devotion and Communions of Reparation.
- Consecrating ourselves to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
- The wearing of the Brown Scapular.
None of these five are optional in this our corrupt age. These basic devotions were given to us directly by the Mother of God as the fundamental way for us to grow in holiness as quickly as possible. These are the duties we must perform without exception and without failure. She knows we are running out of time, and gave us this foundation from whence we can build lives of virtue and sanctity, as we walk the very narrow road.
This firm foundation of these five basic requirements allows us to begin building Humility, which as Venerable Louis of Granada explains, is the virtue that “binds the hands of the Creator”, and is so powerful in the sight of Almighty God that, “Without thee the virgin is shut out of the gates of heaven, and with thee even the public sinner is received at the feet of Christ”.
And so we come to the great mathematical multiplier of all virtues, but especially of humility: namely, penance. Do not forget that at Fatima, St. Michael stood with his flaming sword raised, ready to strike us, and with a loud voice said three words: PENANCE! PENANCE! PENANCE!
By itself, true penance defends us against all three daily assaults we face: against the world, the flesh, and the devils. This chosen physical suffering is pleasing and acceptable to Almighty God because it is selfless, and drives us to meditate upon the mysteries of His Passion.
Venerable Matt Talbot is an excellent example of true, secret, and acceptable penance: this hard-working layman was found upon his death to have chains wrapped around his body, which he wore as penance for sins and to signify his slavery to the Blessed Mother. At night he slept on a wooden plank, with a log as a pillow, and would then make his bed in the morning, in order to hide his penances from others (God saw fit that the housekeeper would figure this out, that we might have his example now). It is said he did these penances in order to comfort our Lord in his Agony, as the Venerable recognized that our Lord, in seeing all the sins through all of time, would also have seen the penances offered for the same.
Fasting is also a most necessary and important part of penance, and has been directly prescribed to us by our Lord. Any cursory study of the lives of the Saints will show us how very devoted they were to fasting, and offering the mortification of their most basic fleshly desires to God.
Others have been known to clip a young stem of a rose bush and attach it to the inside their hat, in order to be reminded by the constant pricking of the Crown of Thorns. A hundred times we have stopped to remove the small pebble from our shoe; but have we ever thought about stopping to put one in, and be reminded of that final walk our Lord took to his death? These opportunities for simple, secret penance surround us daily, and we simply need to ask the Blessed Mother and our Lord for help, and guidance therein.
This is the narrow road: the daily practice of the Passion of our Lord, in the smallest ways. Humility reflects the Agony and His being contemned by the world. Our practice of penance reflects the Scourging, and the mortification of the flesh in reparation for sins. Through humility and penance we overcome our arrogance, pride, and the presumptuous thoughts, which caused the Crowning with Thorns. And only then will we be made worthy and ready to pick up the Cross for that final walk to our own death.
In order to mathematically increase the previously discussed .0086% rate of salvation to 50%, we need to multiply by 5,814. Which just so happens to be very close to the exact number of times that our Lord was struck during the Passion.
Penance is the multiplier. Start multiplying, and do not delay: Our given time runs short now.
On Presumption and the Sins Against the Holy Ghost
“Certainly that they are not forgiven either in this world or in the next, as our Savior taught in the Gospel; nevertheless that must be so understood in that they are very difficult to forgive, because it is rare and laborious for those guilty of these sins to come to true repentance, just as we say when there is an incurable disease, we do not mean to say that it can be cured by no way, but that it is rarely cured, nay more, ordinarily it is not cured.”
St. Bellarmine, The Catechism of St. Robert Bellarmine
The six sins St. Bellarmine is referring to here are:
- To despair of salvation
- The presumption that one will attain eternal salvation without merits
- Denial of a known truth
- To envy the grace given to another
- Obstinacy in sin
- Final impenitence
In this our corrupt age, each of these damning sins can be seen around us daily, even from those we consider to be, generally speaking, “good people”. Presumption, and Denial of a known Truth, are two that have heavily infiltrated the Church, and even those who claim “tradition”.
Presumption of salvation, specifically, is one of the most common, and most subtle sins, and it presumes the Judgements of Almighty God. It excludes true humility. It renders penance and sacrifice impotent. It is a will to power, insofar as it ultimately places the will of the person over the Will and Justice of God. It is most commonly seen in those who, like the protestants, have in effect made themselves to be their own gods. Ironically, this pride and presumption often manifests itself through false humility, false obedience, false devotion, and a general unwillingness to speak and defend the Truth. Those who hold presumption uphold their own will, and therefore cannot bend the same to God’s. By refusing to bend their will to God’s will, they reject all true humility. With presumption comes the removal of all Fear of the Lord. With presumption there is no longer a need (much less a duty) to fight against the moral horrors of the modernist heretics. With presumption the duty inverts and becomes to the community. And so in freeing themselves from the Fear of God, they become bound through false charity, false obedience, and false humility to the service of the community. And through this false service to the community, they become slaves to the world. Hence the damnation.
Unfortunately this presumption has flowed in through the cracks and massive fault lines caused by the Second Vatican Council, and now permeates all the way through to those that hold traditions. This is why even the “traditional” Prelates and Priests are rarely seen now to actively defend the Truth, and always can be trusted to slowly submit more and more to the heretical modernists, while the “trad” laity become more concerned with politics, homesteading, and bitcoin than demanding their Prelates figure out who is (or is not) the Pope.
Presumption removes duty in the traditional Church, and replaces it with the effeminate “trad”, where the man wears the baby while the woman speaks as if she wears the authority of the man. It inverts duty and removes ordered responsibility. It is far past time for traditional men to start upholding Duty in the Church. The needed reversal must begin with true humility, penance, and a development of Fear of the Lord.
S.M.M.
On Restitution
“And so we read in the lives of the holy fathers, of a blessed holy man that saw by revelation a very deep well, full of great and horrible flames of fire, and in the midst of them were the father, and the son, both of them manacled together, and cursing one an other, with great furious rage, and despite. The father said unto his son. Cursed be thou my son. For I to leave thee wealthy, and rich became an usurer, and for usury am I now here in hell damned. And the son said likewise unto his father: Cursed be thou my father, for that imagining to enrich me hast been the cause of my damnation: in that thou didst leave me evil gotten lands, and goods, and I for the wrongful keeping of them and not making due restitution to the right owners am here now alas damned everlastingly.”
Venerable Louis of Granada
The son was not dammed for receiving stolen lands and goods. He was damned because he did not make restitution for the sins of his father, which he had knowledge of. Consider the Judgements of Almighty God therein.
Divine Justice requires restitution for sins. Often we make this restitution through penance, prayer, or acts of Charity. Nevertheless, for sins wherein one holds something belonging to another, more specific restitution must be made. This is precisely why the sins of Slander, Detraction, and Calumny can be so grave: It is difficult to make reparation for the taking away of someone’s good name or reputation.
Unfortunately, in this our corrupt age, restitution is rarely made, especially when the wrongdoing has resulted in the financial loss of another person, whether through actual theft, usury, or even simply the transfer of owned property. And those that fail to make restitution, or councel others against the same, risk eternal damnation.
Discern well.
S.M.M.
§ III: Supplemental Considerations
On the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
“It was through Mary that the salvation of the world was begun, and it is through Mary that it must be consummated.”
St. Louis De Monfort
“These great souls, full of grace and zeal, shall be chosen to match themselves against the enemies of God, who shall rage on all sides; […] They shall be little and poor in the world’s esteem, and abased before all like the heel, trodden underfoot and persecuted as the heel is by the other members of the body.”
St. Louis De Montfort, on the great Saints of the latter times
“For as it is true, that is commonly said: that Feigned holiness is a double iniquity: even so is it also most certainly true: that Deceitful felicity is a double misery.”
Venerable Louis of Granada
The Immaculate Heart of Mary has not triumphed because the world is not ready. And the world is not ready, because so very few are actively working for the Triumph. The deceitful felicity of the laity, combined with the feigned holiness of the hierarchy, silences those who seek the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart, seek to defend the Church, and fight for both.
But this will not always be the case. Time runs short now for the heretics and their footstools too, which is why they are quickly increasing the speed with which they attack the Church, the Latin Mass, and the teachings of the Saints. And it is observable through the Prophecies that the time now approaches wherein the Blessed Mother will Triumph, through those poor and persecuted slaves of Hers, who, “With the one hand they shall fight […] With the other hand they shall build…” (St. Louis De Montfort).
It will not be the learned intelligentsia or the compromising servants of the world in the Church that will bring about this Triumph: It will be those who are contemned by the world, and trodden down by the rest of the Body. It will be those who sacrifice silently now in penance. It will be those who sacrifice silently now in persecution, slandered and rejected by the footstools. It is they who now learn the love of the Blessed Mother.
They may need assistance to both fight and build. Therefore, let us be ready for both, with the Rosary and the devotions given us by the Blessed Mother for these latter times. The consecration of ourselves as slaves and children to Her, as outlined by Saint Louis De Montfort, is most necessary to assist in bringing about Her Triumph. Best to begin now.
S.M.M.
ON THE MOST HOLY SACRAFICE OF THE MASS
“Pelican of mercy, Jesu, Lord and God, Cleanse me, wretched sinner, in Thy precious Blood:”
ST. THOMAS AQUINAS
“So often as we come to receive this most blessed Sacrament, we must make accompt, that we come to lay our mouths to Christ’s very side, to drink of his most precious Blood, and to be partakers of this sovereign, and divine mystery.”
ST. CHRYSOSTOM
“For even from the very first hour, and instant of Thy most holy Conception, there was represented unto Thee, both the Cross, and withal all the cruel bitter pains, and torments, that Thou shouldest suffer upon the same: and so Thou hadst them all continually very lively set before Thine eyes all the days Thou didst live here on earth.“
VENERABLE LOUIS OF GRANADA
Our Blessed Lord had the Passion and Cross always set before his eyes. And so it should be for us, with the Mass always set before us in this life. It is there, at the Perpetual Sacrifice, that we are healed. And it is there, that we are taught by our Lord.
At the Judgement, we will see the true value and weight of the Mass. And then, were it possible, we would gladly suffer all the pains of the world to be poured upon us, all at once, just to attend and pray one more Mass. Fly now to the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
“Wherefore, O gracious God, O awful Majesty, I, a wretched creature, reduced to extremity, have recourse to Thee, the fount of mercy; I fly to Thee that I may be healed, and take refuge under Thy protection, and I ardently desire to have Him as my Saviour whom I am unable to withstand as my judge.” – St. Ambrose
Learn to fly.
S.M.M.
On the Office of Divine Justice
“That when the Blessed Virgin conceived the Eternal Word in her womb, and brought Him forth, she obtained half the kingdom of God; so that she is Queen of Mercy, as Jesus Christ is King of Justice.”
St. Thomas Aquinas
“That the Eternal Father gave the office of judge and avenger to the Son, and that of showing mercy and relieving the necessitous to the Mother.”
St. Alphonsus Liguori quoting Ernest, Archbishop of Prague
“It is Satan who has been introduced into the bosom of the Church and within a very short time will come to rule a false Church.”
St. Padre Pio
“There will be such diversity of opinions and schisms among the people, the religious and the clergy, that, except those days were shortened, according to the words of the Gospel, even the elect would be led into error, were they not specially guided, amid such great confusion, by the immense mercy of God.”
St. Francis of Assisi
The Office of Divine Justice is held by the Son of God, and therefore reflected by his Vicar on Earth. And so, just as an offence against Almighty God requires restitution in order to fulfill and satisfy Justice, likewise an offence against the Office of his Vicar must also require that Justice be satisfied. And if the offence in question were the illicit and invalid usurpation of the same Office, then the restitution demanded by the Office of Justice must be satisfied before reconciliation of the Church with the same could validly and licitly occur, lest the Office of Justice reflected by the Vicar be found in violation of the Office of Justice held by the Son.
Therefore, the purported conclave and election of Robert Prevost, wherein 108 out of 133 voting Cardinals were invalidly appointed to their voting positions by the usurper and Antipope Jorge Bergoglio, was invalid: not because Holy Mother Church is incapable of reconciling 108 Cardinals through Supplet Ecclesia, but rather because the reconciliation which the Office of Justice demands is not primarily with the 108, but is instead demanded by the offence against the Vicar himself: and against the Office of Justice itself. Therefore, acknowledgment and rejection of the formal, manifest heresy of Bergoglio is demanded by the Church before the reconciliation can validly and licitly occur. Holy Mother Church cannot ignore the usurpation of the highest Office on Earth and yet claim reconciliation with the same, all while continuing the path of formal heresy set forth by he who usurped the Office. Only a False Church ruled by Satan could do so.
It is no surprise then, to see Prevost immediately and publicly manifest his intention to continue the formal, manifest heresy of Bergoglio. And very, very many are deceived now, as they presume a valid pontificate through the appearance of a conclave, more traditional apparel, and the appearance of politically conservative policy. But neither the Papacy nor the Office of Justice is a political institution, and the Chair remains empty, while the formal heresy of Prevost is made manifest by his continued unity with the formal heresy of Bergoglio.
Now take heart, and stay the course. For as the first Vicar of Christ taught us: “the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, will himself perfect you, and confirm you, and establish you.”
Amen, so be it.
