Church Purified Tribulation




The Church Will Be Purified in the Great Tribulation!




Dear Father Robert Adami,


After what you said to me at the Cenacle at Loreto (Italy), June 9, 2016, and after what Father Francis Geremia, C. S. said before the Mass and to me in the sacristy, I will no longer participate in the Cenacles in Umbria and I will not go to the spiritual exercises at Collevalenza in June.


Like all of us priests, God has entrusted to us souls, and thus it is a great responsibility. But I believe that it is a great temptation for us to put the group or the people entrusted to us before the uncomfortable Truth Who is Jesus crucified. The priest Ivan Pojavnik explained several times in his meditations how easy it is to slide into the cult of man (not the cult of God), and we believe that this could not happen to us?!?


Jesus never offered compromises even when there was the risk of loosing many followers. When many of His disciples left Him regarding the truth about the Eucharist, He did not offer compromises with the Truth, but was even willing to loose his Apostles: “Will you also go away?” (Jn 6:67)!


Following the Truth to the end, Jesus lost almost all of His followers, His group of disciples and apostles, while He was dying on the cross, humbled and tortured. In this period, as we know, the Body of Christ, the Church, will be crucified and buried as was Jesus 2000 years ago, and then afterwards there will be the resurrection, also the resurrection of the few people who remained faithful to the Truth. We find in the messages of Our Lady to Don Stefano Gobbi that the true priests must be as Christ in this period, victims for the expiation of the Church, ready to loose all for Jesus, even their followers or the groups of people entrusted to them.


Do you believe that the Marian Movement of Priests (MMP) will be exempt from the great trials in this period? It is easy to slide into the attitude similar to that of the Donatists at the beginning of the Church or the attitude of the SSPX group (followers of Lefebvre), that we are above the trials and above being deceived, and that we are a special group.


Recently I wrote to a person who wanted me to leave the Catholic Church and unite with the SSPX group.
The Great Difficulty In Overcoming Pharisaism - The Difference Between Schismatic Traditionalism and the False Pope Prophecies” (http://schis-trad.blogspot.it/2016/05/overcoming-pharisaism.html).


This person wrote:
“The Catholic Church in the future will stand against as a beacon of light to the world. However this will not occur till the new church has been vanquished and people return to Our Lord's Church.”
Among other things I replied:
Yes, the Church will be vanquished but in the sense of being crucified, but not destroyed, just as Christ was crucified and buried but not destroyed 2000 years ago. The Church is not outside the Church, in such groups as the Christians who believe in the Rapture or the Donatists, or the SSPX or the CMRI (sedevantists), etc., so as to save all in triumphalism after the “great tribulation”, to be able to tell everyone afterwards: “See, we told you so”!”


Where is the courage to take the risk to dialogue with priests of good will who are not in agreement with us instead of only giving them commands and to impose and to put them straight according to our minds and to condemn them? Where is the courage to dialogue in order to seek together the truth and prudence in a given situation, in a Church full of confusion and disunity, more than ever before today?


Instead of giving rebukes on the fly in the sacristy, why do you not have the guts to explain some paragraphs that I wrote (on the Internet) that you believe are not in harmony with the documents of the Church or with the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults? This would be a true act of love instead of cowardice.


As I wrote to you by email in February 2016:
I very briefly told you by phone that when a picture was taken together with the people of Perugia with Padre Laurent Larroque last June (2015), Padre Laurent said to me (behind my back) to not associate on my blog the Marian Movement of Priests and the Freemasons on the Internet. Padre Laurent did not seek to get to know me nor to have a dialogue to seek the truth or prudence in this situation together.”
One of my main reasons to write on the Internet is to help people to keep their eyes open in order not to fall into the beautiful lies of Satan today presented as if they were the Truth. In the Blue Book, Our Lady warns us very often of this weapon of Satan. In my articles, often I offer my experiences to help people to continue to scratch our heads without spiritually falling asleep as many in the Catholic Church have done today. It is much easier to embrace the philosophy of life, “Ignorance is Bliss”, than to struggle everyday to be knowledgeable of the wolf, disguised as a lamb, who leads us away in the most hidden, underhanded and attractive ways. It is risky for a pastor to do his work today in warning the sheep, the people, of the great hidden dangers today; such a courageous pastor is more and more persecuted by the people who want a Christianity without the cross and, from on high, by the bishops who take the easiest way of pleasing the people who do not want to go with the pastor toward Calvary with Jesus with the cross. As you know, the two bishop of Perugia took away my parish last October. If we do not persevere in this fatigue of seeking to unmask the underhanded traps of our enemy, we will surely fall into them while we believe that everything is OK, without looking behind to see if everything is truly OK according to the true teachings of the Magisterium of the Church.”
Dear Don Robert, is it not very important for us pastors of the sheep to warn the souls entrusted to us about the beautiful lies of Satan well disguised as if they were the truth? Is there a more important motive that this? Are we more worried about the true good of the souls or about something else?”
I must ask myself if I am more attached to my group and my followers, or to the uncomfortable Truth, crucified on the cross, and rejected by the builders of the world of today in relativism? At the crucifixion, Jesus was abandoned by almost everyone. In this period of the crucifixion of the Body of Christ, I must ask myself if I am ready to loose all to follow the crucified Truth? I hope that I am attached only to Jesus crucified, the crucified Truth, my only Spouse, and not to a group, or to a parish or to any other thing or person! Jesus spoke very strong about this! “He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me…” (Mt 10:37). “If any one come to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple” (Lk 14:26). I ask myself: “Am I ready to loose everything, even my life in martyrdom for Jesus, or not?” “The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep” (Jn 10:11).”
Dear Don Robert, by telephone, I did not sense very much an invitation to dialogue together to seek to discover what Jesus would do in our situation today. For this reason I am writing this email. I am not saying to seek the truth or the way of prudence according to my mind of relativism nor your mind of relativism, but to seek the truth or the way of prudence according to Jesus who is the Truth, with the documents of the Church, the writings of the popes and of the saints, and for us, also with the messages of Our Lady by way of Don Stefano Gobbi.”


Two years ago at Loreto (06-02-2014) I gave to Padre Laurent and to a few priests of the MMP my article: “Who Decides The Truth?” (http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2014/06/who-decides-truth.html). After this, in Father Laurent’s Circular Letter of 2015, at the bottom of page 2, Father Laurent wrote:
We must not tempt God, asking: “Lord, who is it?” (Jn 13:25). Jesus never specified before hand before his disciples who might be the traitor. Which means to condemn a person... “Within my Immaculate Heart I will build up your interior equilibrium, my beloved sons, because today you have need of being ever more prudent and well-balanced.” (March 25, 1979, q), for this reason, don Stefano did not want that in the Cenacles to be distributed or discussed other writings or MESSAGES outside of the Blue Book and outside of his meditations. This is a condition to be done at the Cenacles, without which one must abstain for doing this.”


Then at out retreat at Collevalenza, June 2015, I no longer gave anything written, but I gave to some the address of my index website of my articles. And so in his circular letter of 2016, six months after, at the bottom of page 3, Father Laurent wrote:
We must not pretend to identify the false prophet of the Rev. 13:11. “Pray, to suffer, to be silent, to offer yourselves up” as Jesus did on the cross (March 24, 1978); to be silent, meaning also blogs, social networks and emails (cf. March 25, 1979). “I did not send these prophets, yet they ran; I did not speak to them, yet they prophesied” Jer 23:21, cited by St. John of the Cross, Ascent to Mount Carmel, 3, 31, 2-3. The same St. James and St. John, drawn by their zeal, did not then belong to the Spirit of Jesus (Lk 9:54-55).


Why did Father Laurent not cite: “For he that is not against us is for us” (Mk 9:40), or “But Moses said to him, “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the Lord’s people were prophets, that the Lord would put his spirit upon them”!” (Num 11:29)?


And so why does Our Lady encourage us to create fraternity among us priests? Why do we exchange our email addresses among us priests of the Movement at the annual spiritual exercises?


When my cardinal asked my two years ago if these prophecies indicate Pope Francis I answered (“The Hidden Broad Road to Perdition”; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2015/05/road-perdition.html): “I do not know, but my eyes are open”! He was not too happy with my answer, because he wanted me to say: “Oh no, impossible, Pope Francis is a saint”! But still these people who have chosen to close their eyes with the philosophy of life “Ignorance is bliss”, try to fake respecting the freedom of conscience because we are not yet openly under the dictatorship of the New World Order, even though in a sly and hidden way in the United States and in Europe we are quickly loosing our freedom. Is this not the “dictatorship of relativism” of which Cardinal Ratzinger spoke about in his homily at the Mass preceding the conclave that quickly elected him Pope? People today do not look any more at the fruits in order to recognize the tree but rather the leaves, the nice words (Lk 6:44; Mt 7:16-18).


It is no secret that the false prophet will drag many souls with him away from God, even to the point “so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect” (Mt 24:24)! In the Sacred Scriptures there are many passages which make reference to the second coming of Jesus and the period of the great trial before the coming of Our Lord. Even the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 675) tells us: Before Christ's second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. The persecution that accompanies her pilgrimage on earth will unveil the “mystery of iniquity” in the form of a religious deception offering men an apparent solution to their problems at the price of apostasy from the truth. The supreme religious deception is that of the Antichrist, a pseudo-messianism by which man glorifies himself in place of God and of his Messiah come in the flesh.”


To a priest who does not keep his eyes open in order to warn the sheep about this “supreme religious deception”, I believe that one can apply the words “THEY ARE ALL DUMB DOGS, THEY CANNOT BARK’ (Is 56:10) as Pope St. Gregory the Great tells us (Office of Readings; Sunday, Week 27 of OT). In the period of the world when there will be the most sly wolf in history, more capable of disguising himself as an angel of light, I am surprised that religious superiors tell us “we must not pretend to identify the false prophet”!?! This wolf, the false prophet, will lead many souls with him in the name of (false) “love”, (false) “mercy”, (misguided) “compassion”, (false) “ecumenism” in the universal fraternity, and notwithstanding the greatest danger ever of the “supreme religious deception”, “we must not pretend to identify the false prophet”!?! What are the true hidden motives of wanting to embrace “Ignorance is bliss”?!? Are our motives truly and purely only for the glory of God and the salvation of souls? What is more important, our little group or the uncomfortable Truth, Who is Jesus crucified?!? Jesus lost his group, his followers, during the crucifixion 2000 years ago. Do we too have the guts and the grace to do the same in the period when the Body of Christ, and the groups of the Church, will be crucified?!? Do we believe that God can resurrect the Church and the faithful groups of the Church after this period of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21)?!? Do we trust more in ourselves or in God?!?


Nor did we seek glory from men, whether from you or from others, though we might have made demands as apostles of Christ…” (1Thess 2:6).


Let there be no leader among you. I myself will be your Leader. You must all be brothers: loving, understanding and helping each other” (Our Lady to Don Stefano Gobbi, July 16, 1973).
Therefore there should be no leader among you: you are all brothers, united in love that must grow ever more and more” (Our Lady to Don Stefano Gobbi, August 22, 1976).


The religious leaders who are not mature and are insecure, who do not lead the others with their example but rather with words, do not succeed in understanding these words of Our Lady. Three years ago I wrote an article about this lack of humility and maturity among many religious leaders which suffocates much spiritual life in the Church: “The Great Responsibility of Religious Leaders” (http://josephdwight.wordpress.com/2014/08/07/great-responsibility/).


It is understandable for good Catholics to have a very difficult time considering the possibility that God allowed a false pope to take over the Vatican. This has never happened in the history of the Church. Did not Christ tell us that “the gates of hell would not prevail” (Mt 16:18)? So many times in the messages of Our Lady to Don Stefano Gobbi we are told to obey the Pope! But as indicated by the prophecy of Saint Francis of Assisi, WE DESERVE what the great majority of the Catholics want, a Pastor who will take away these outdated restrictions called the “Ten Commandments” and finally liberate us from these scruples of sin!


I wrote in the introduction of my article “The FALSE POPE - Saint Hildegard” (March 2013, after the resignation of Pope Benedict; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2013/02/resignation-of-pope-benedict.html):
The Pope, has been so ignored, disobeyed and despised in the last 50 years not only by the left side of the spectrum (ignore or disobey) but also by the right side of the spectrum (prideful rebellion). I think that this vacancy (while a “Judas” (Iscariot) will be in control of the Vatican) will be a great just punishment not only for the whole Church but for the whole world. The world which is intrinsically connected with all of creation, goes forward or backward depending on the behavior and choices of those who have received much more graces and responsibility from God in this “cosmic battle” (as Pope John Paul II put it), the lay Catholics, the priests and the bishops of the One True Church, the Catholic Church! Pope Paul VI was so devastated by the reaction to Humanae Vitae that he said, referring to the situation in the Church, “FROM SOME CREVICE, THE SMOKE OF SATAN HAS ENTERED THE TEMPLE OF GOD” (June 29, 1972); Pope Paul VI did not write another encyclical after Humanae Vitae (1968)!”


Several months after I published the article “The FALSE POPE - Saint Hildegard”, I discovered for the first time the “Prophecy of Saint Francis” (of Assisi) (http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2013/11/prophecy-st-francis.html):
2. The power of the demons will be greater than usual, the immaculate purity of our religious community and of others, will withered to the point that very few Christians will want to obey the true Sovereign Pontiff and the Roman Church with a sincere heart and perfect charity. At the decisive moment of this crisis, a personage not canonically elected, raised to the Pontificate, will endeavor to administer shrewdly to many the mortal poison of his error.
7. Some preachers will keep silent about the truth and, denying the truth, they will trample upon the truth. The sanctity of life will be held in derision by those who only profess it outwardly, and for this reason Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a worthy Pastor, but a destroyer.”


When God wants to chastise humanity, He does not give to the Church the Pope of which it needs, but leaves to the Church the Pope that it merits” (Archbishop Fulton Sheen).


Our Lady revealed to Don Stefano Gobbi (http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/):
These are the times, foretold by me, when cardinals will be set against cardinals, bishops against bishops and priests against priests, and the flock of Christ will be torn to pieces by rapacious wolves, who have found their way in under the clothing of defenseless and meek lambs. Among them there are even some who occupy posts of great responsibility, and by means of them, Satan has succeeded in entering and in operating at the very SUMMIT of the Church. Bishops and priests of the holy Church of God, how great today is your responsibility! The Lord is about to demand of you an account of how you have administered his vineyard. Repent; seek pardon; make amends; and, above all, be once again faithful to the task which has been entrusted to you” (September 6, 1986).
At the present time, the tenebrous forces of evil are laying snares for her on all sides. The dark conspiracies woven by Masonry, by means of its many followers who have insinuated themselves at the SUMMIT of the Church, have succeeded in paralyzing her activity and in extinguishing her apostolic ardor” (August 15, 1988).


If we follow all the way the uncomfortable Truth, Our Lady will give rise to her Movement after the crucifixion and burial of her Movement.


Pope John Paul II said to a group of pilgrims in Fulda, West Germany, in November 1980, speaking about the secrets of Fatima, that: “We have to be prepared to suffer, before long, great trials which will require of us the disposition to sacrifice even our life for Christ. Through your prayers and mine, it is still possible to diminish this trial (predicted at Fatima), but it is no longer possible to avert it, because only in this manner can the Church be effectively renewed. How many times has the renewal of the Church been brought about in blood! It will not be different this time.”


Saint Louis de Montfort wrote:
I said that this will happen especially towards the end of the world, and indeed soon, because Almighty God and his holy Mother are to raise up great saints who will surpass in holiness most other saints as much as the cedars of Lebanon tower above little shrubs (“True Devotion to Mary”, no. 47).


There will not be a rapture as many people believe, even some priests. We must suffer and be put to the test as Saint Peter and all the apostles 2000 years ago at the moment of the passion and crucifixion and burial of Jesus Christ. I hope that we will have the grace to cry like Saint Peter for our lack of courage.


There is always the temptation to think that we are a special group. The special people for Jesus are those who realize their own poverty and misery and are willing to share more in the passion of Jesus, the “cedars of Lebanon”; those who trust more in Jesus than in themselves, and thus “with God all things are possible” (Mt 19:26; Mk 10:27; Lk 18:27).


Many Catholics want a tranquil life as Luciana Bistoni said to me on the bus from Perugia on June 9, 2016, and the majority of the ones on the bus were in agreement with Luciana. Luciana did not want to hear any explanation or answer different from her own opinion or her desires or her mindset. Many people, even those who participate at the Cenacles, want to take advantage of religion, the parish, the pastor, the Cenacles, for something for themselves - perhaps for their liking, to have good sentiments or feelings, etc. - instead of taking advantage of religion, the parish, the pastor and the Cenacles, in order to discover the will of God and to do the will of God, which is often not easy and is often very painful like the crucifixion with Jesus, in fact impossible without God (Mt 19:26; Mk 10:27; Lk 18:27)! Are we in love with the consolations of God or with the God of consolations? There are few pastors who have the courage to go with Jesus toward Jerusalem, toward Calvary, toward the crucifixion, toward the abandonment (by all) with Jesus on the cross (Mt 27:46; Ps 22) to unite themselves with Jesus crucified and to offer an example to the souls to not continue to slide further away from Calvary (using religion to do so) but to change directions and to go with resolution with Jesus who “set his face to go to Jerusalem” (Lk 9:51-53). “Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? 'Father, save me from this hour? No, for this purpose I have come to this hour. Father, glorify thy name" (Jn 12:27-28)!


Suffering is the greatest treasure on earth; it purifies the soul. In suffering we learn who is our true friend. True love is measured by the thermometer of suffering…” (Diary of St. Faustina, no. 342).


When Jesus multiplied the loaves for the 5000 (Mt 14:13-21), they wanted to make Him king; at the crucifixion there were very few people! How many Catholics today pray the Our Father with their lips, “THY will be done”, but instead live, “MY will be done”, even worse, they do not even seek to discover the will of God in their easier philosophy of life: “Ignorance is Bliss”!


But the people would not receive him, because his face was set toward Jerusalem” (Lk 9:53), that is toward Calvary, toward His greatest act of love, His crucifixion!


Blessed Father Jerzy Popieluszko (a martyr killed by the polish police on October 13, 1984) used to say: "You have to be afraid of only betraying Christ for thirty pieces of a little petty tranquility". Today the real risk that we are running is that of betraying the Lord, simply out of fear or in the name of a little petty quiet living.


I should hope that you would not be counted among their number. Their homes are peaceful and complacent. They live in security and never feel the touch of the Lord’s rod. They pass their days in plenty and in the end go straight to hell.” (Saint Raymund of Penyafort, Office of Readings, January 7).


I came to cast fire upon the earth; and would that it were already kindled! I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how I am constrained until it is accomplished! Do you think that I have come to give peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division; for henceforth in one house there will be five divided, three against two and two against three; they will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against her mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law." (Lk 12:49-53).


Ratzinger's forgotten prophesy on the future of the Church:
A restructured Church with far fewer members that is forced to let go of many places of worship it worked so hard to build over the centuries. A minority Catholic Church with little influence over political decisions, that is socially irrelevant, left humiliated and forced to “start over.”
But a Church that will find itself again and be reborn a “simpler and more spiritual” entity thanks to this “enormous confusion.” This was the prophesy made 40 years ago on the future of Christianity by a young Bavarian theologian, Joseph Ratzinger…”


The great majority will welcome this false prophet who will finally update the Church with the sexual revolution (in a very sly way!), total freedom, which we believe will not lead to our destruction. Most people today only care about today as if tomorrow and eternity do not exist. No more responsibility for tomorrow or for the consequences for our actions on others! “Ignorance is bliss!” Some sincerely concerned people say it is wrong to consider the possibility of a false pope, to keep our eyes open. But when this false pope arrives, this false pope will lead a great number of people away from God and even to the point of adoring the first beast, the antichrist. “Then I saw another beast which rose out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb and I spoke like a dragon. It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed…” (Rev 13:11-12). But we must always remember that even though the word “beast” is used in this passage, “Satan disguises himself as an angel of light” (2Cor 11:14)!


Father Gabrielli Quartilio cited several times the prophecy of the Servant of God, Archbishop Fulton Sheen: “The False Prophet will have a religion without a cross. A religion without a world to come. A religion to destroy religions. There will be a counterfeit church. Christ’s Church will be one. And the False Prophet will create the other. The false church will be worldly, ecumenical (false), and global. It will be a loose federation of churches, religions forming some type of global association, a world parliament of churches. It will be emptied of all divine content and will be the mystical body of the antichrist. The Mystical Body on earth today will have its Judas Iscariot and he will be the false prophet. SATAN WILL RECRUIT HIM FROM AMONG OUR BISHOPS.” (Fulton J. Sheen, Communism and the Conscience of the West [Bobbs-Merril Company, Indianapolis, 1948], pp. 24-25).


The false prophet, the false pope, will seek to form a One World Religion, by way of false ecumenism, which will result in reductionism to the lowest common denominator, forfeiting our most precious means of sanctification and the fullness of truth, as Catholics, in the name of (false) “love” and (false) “mercy” and (false) “ecumenism”!?! It is precisely now that the world needs, more than every before, these “means of sanctification”, found in the Church founded by Jesus Christ. In this way one goes ever more toward mediocrity seeking to receive and to please everyone, with compromise after compromise, to the point of loosing just about all the true values of Jesus Christ as well as the authentic sources of grace through Jesus Christ. The founder of Christendom College (USA), Dr. Warren Carroll, wrote that ecumenism is important but properly understood is “not an ecumenism in which you would abandon convictions in truth which would be superficial and meaningless agreements, but developing an ecumenism built solidly on real conviction and truth.”


If I sought to please men I should not be the servant of Christ” (Office of Readings; St. Augustine; Week 13 OT, Tuesday).
It is not men that I want you to gratify, but God, just as you habitually do…” (Office of Readings; St. Ignatius of Antioch; Week 10, OT, Sunday).
Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ” (Gal 1:7-10; 1Cor 15:1-2).


As you know, Our Lady in her final message, October 13, 1973, at Akita, Japan, on the anniversary of the great miracle of the sun at Fatima (October 13, 1917), said to Sister Agnes Katsuko Sasagawa: “The work of the devil will infiltrate even the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against other bishops... the Church will be full of those who accept compromise …” (http://www.miraclerosarymission.org/akita.htm).


The people who are seeking to follow the signs of the times realize that the false prophet, the second beast of the Book of Revelation (Rev 13:11, 15; 16:13; 19:20; 20:10) will end up deceiving a great number of people. Perhaps it might seem exaggerated that people will even come to the point of adoring the Antichrist as we read in chapter 13 of the Book of Revelation. But every time that a person accepts even a small lie of the devil, or a compromise so as not to loose something to which they are attached to, such as a group or friends or honor before men, there is always an increase in spiritual blindness and pride; if this person does not repent with a good sincere confession with sincere prayer, he or she will continue to accept more and more the beautiful easy lies of “the father of lies” (Jn 8:44).


I wrote several times in my articles that “it is very important in these times of great confusion, when even Catholic bishops are no longer in agreement about the fundamentals of our faith and morals, to not only pray much and to study the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC), but to keep our eyes open so as not to fall into the beautiful lies of Satan presented as if they were the Truth!!!”


Dear Don Robert, I will pray for you and I hope that you will pray for me in this period of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21) when “even the elect” will be “lead astray, if possible” (Mt 24:24)!

A few days after the spiritual exercises at Collevalenza in June 2016, Don Roberto Adami telephoned me and he was much more willing to listen and to try to understand my thoughts instead of giving only rebuffs without dialogue as before. Also Don Mario Cecci telephoned me. Thus I returned to the Cenacles in our zone of Umbria, Italy.

Ignorance Is Bliss


Ignorance Is Bliss!




Dear friends,


As we know, it is very important to struggle everyday, in a world filled with confusion sown by “the father of lies” (Jn 8:44), to seek the Truth. As I wrote at the beginning of my index blog sites:


I do not think it was by chance that when Pope John Paul II was asked toward the end of his life to offer one verse from the entire Bible for the people of God, he responded without hesitation: “THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE” (Jn 8:32; Jer 6:16)! Father, “Sanctify them in the truth” (Jn 17:17)! The Truth, tied to the cross of Jesus here on earth, is uncomfortable!”


I too have often had to backtrack when I discovered new information and documents in my search for the truth. The search for the truth is an ongoing process and will not end until our death, especially since “the father of lies” (Jn 8:44) continues to sow new and very attractive and convincing lies. Very often, even good Catholics who have received more of the fullness of the Truth than non Catholics, CUT OFF DIALOGUE in the search for the truth when there is indicated something that they do not want to hear or documents they do not want to read; many follow the uncomfortable Truth, Christ crucified, only up to the point that they decide according to the way they want the truth and the way they want reality. Those who have received more grace and greater responsibility from God, but slide away from God, become better experts in deceiving themselves and others as they justify and disguise their hidden agenda and egoism. The more we follow the Truth, Who is crucified on the cross, the more we will be asked to loose many things (all things before entering heaven before the all perfect God!) that we are attached to so as to make room in our hearts for the Truth Who is Jesus Christ (Jn 14:6). What an advantageous exchange of our ideas and attachments and comforts for the eternal riches of our divine Savior!


Blessed Father Jerzy Popieluszko (a martyr killed by the polish police on October 13, 1984) used to say: "You have to be afraid of only betraying Christ for thirty pieces of a little petty tranquility".

“The whole of man’s history has been the story of DOUR COMBAT with the powers of evil” (CCC 409).


Jesus has become a pretext that Christians use to talk about other things” (Cardinal Giacomo Biffi; “Gesù è diventato un pretesto che i cristiani usano per parlare d'altro”; http://www.ilfoglio.it/articoli/2013/10/22/cristo-senza-dottrina-ne-verita___1-v-94656-rubriche_c192.htm).


Amoris Laetitia: “every Catholic has a solemn obligation to publicly condemn this act by Francis”
A priest with eyes opened speaks clearly in a sermon for the Sunday after Ascension, 8 May 2016.
“If thou wilt enter into [eternal] life, keep the commandments. He said to him, ‘Which?’ And Jesus said, ‘Thou shalt do no murder, thou shalt not commit adultery . . .’” (Mt 19:17).
“Whosoever shall put away his wife and marry another committeth adultery against her. And if the wife shall put away her husband and be married to another, she committeth adultery.” (Mk. 10:11-12)


Many of what “Pope Francis” calls mortal sins are the sins caused by ignoring Humanae Vitae. Pope Paul VI prophesied years ago in his encyclical Humanae Vitae these sins caused by the contraceptive mentality, of seeing women as objects, the breakup of families, etc. People praise “Pope Francis” for calling these secondary sins mortal sins, but few realize the devastation of the silence about the root sins that cause these secondary sins, which cannot be overcome unless the root is healed; as it was said in Latin, ‘Sana Radice’ about healing a marriage. Behold the strategy, to promote the root problem while distracting us to the secondary symptoms, and making us feel we are fighting for justice. This has happened over and over again in history. This is similar to a great number of Christians who believe and say that they are good Christians because they observe 8 of the 10 Commandments. Many Catholics, including priests and bishops, no longer want to discover the secondary effects of sins, sins according to God explained in the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults. People do not want to take responsibility for their actions; there are very few fathers of the families and priests of the parishes and bishops of the diocese who warn of the great dangers of not seeking to discover the will of God so as to live the Our Father: “THY will be done”, not “MY will be done”! The few priests and bishops who warn people of the devastation of neglecting God holy laws are more and more persecuted.


Radical leftists want to criminalize a Cardinal… for Christian statements?
The radical left has taken offense at a Spanish Cardinal’s homily on gender ideology. Now they are trying to criminalize him, oust him from his position, and even put him behind bars.
This debate began when Cardinal Cañizares of Valencia gave a homily on May 13th, in which he said the following:
"We have legislation here that is contrary to the family… This situation is serious, and has consequences for the future of society. We must now consider the stability of marriage and the family, and the support and public recognition of the family, as an issue of utmost social concern.”
Following this, on May 29th, he argued that gender ideology was “the most insidious ideology that has been destructive of humanity throughout history.”
He also made comments in opposition to radical feminist groups and expressed reservations about open-doors immigration policies.


This pick and choose SMORGASBORD TYPE CATHOLICISM is so prevalent among Catholics and priests and bishops today that Pope John Paul II told the bishops in LA in his September 1987 visit: "It is sometimes reported that a large number of Catholics today do not adhere to the teaching of the Church on a number of questions, notably sexual and conjugal morality, divorce and remarriage. Some are reported as not accepting the Church's clear position on abortion. It has also been noted that there is a tendency on the part of some Catholics to be selective in their adherence to the Church's moral teachings. It is sometimes claimed that dissent from the Magisterium is totally compatible with being a “good Catholic” and poses no obstacle to the reception of the sacraments. THIS IS A GRAVE ERROR that challenges the teaching office of the bishops of the United States and elsewhere. I wish to encourage you in the love of Christ to address this situation courageously in your pastoral ministry, relying on the power of God's truth to attract assent and on the grace of the Holy Spirit which is given both to those who proclaim the message and to those to whom it is addressed."


The Servant of God, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, wrote:
The Antichrist will not be so called; otherwise he would have no followers. He will not wear red tights, nor vomit sulphur, nor carry a trident nor wave an arrowed tail as Mephistopheles in Faust. This masquerade has helped the Devil convince men that he does not exist. When no man recognizes, the more power he exercises. God has defined Himself as "I am Who am," and the Devil as "I am who am not."
“Nowhere in Sacred Scripture do we find warrant for the popular myth of the Devil as a buffoon who is dressed like the first "red." Rather is he described as an angel fallen from heaven, as "the Prince of this world," whose business it is to tell us that there is no other world. His logic is simple: if there is no heaven there is no hell; if there is no hell, then there is no sin; if there is no sin, then there is no judge, and if there is no judgment then evil is good and good is evil. But above all these descriptions, Our Lord tells us that he will be so much like Himself that he would deceive even the elect - and certainly no devil ever seen in picture books could deceive even the elect. How will he come in this new age to win followers to his religion?”
The pre-Communist Russian belief is that he will come disguised as the Great Humanitarian; he will talk peace, prosperity and plenty not as means to lead us to God, but as ends in themselves…”
“The third temptation in which Satan asked Christ to adore him and all the kingdoms of the world would be His, will become the temptation to have a new religion without a Cross, a liturgy without a world to come, a religion to destroy a religion, or a politics which is a religion--one that renders unto Caesar even the things that are God's.”
In the midst of all his seeming love for humanity and his glib talk of freedom and equality, he will have one great secret which he will tell to no one: he will not believe in God. Because his religion will be brotherhood without the fatherhood of God, he will deceive even the elect. 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. . . .
“But the twentieth century will join the counter church because it claims to be infallible when its visible head speaks ex cathedra from Moscow on the subject of economics and politics, and as chief shepherd of world communism.”
(Fulton J. Sheen, Communism and the Conscience of the West [Bobbs-Merril Company, Indianapolis, 1948], pp. 24-25).




Relevant Quotes to Keep in Mind:
- "...not that an interregnum covering the whole period [of the Great Western Schism] would have been impossible or inconsistent with the promises of Christ, for this is by no means manifest..." --Fr. Edmund James O'Reilly, The Relations of the Church to Society - Theological Essays, p. 287.
Some quotes from this book here:
- "The Church will be punished because the majority of her members, high and low, will become so perverted. The Church will sink deeper and deeper until she will at last seem to be extinguished, and the succession of Peter and the other Apostles to have expired. But, after this, she will be victoriously exalted in the sight of all doubters."
St. Nicholas of Flue, quoted in Catholic Prophecy, edited by Yves Dupont, p. 30
- "We must remember that if all the manifestly good men were on one side and all the manifestly bad men on the other, there would be no danger of anyone, least of all the elect, being deceived by lying wonders. It is the good men, good once, we must hope good still, who are to do the work of Anti-Christ and so sadly to crucify the Lord afresh…. Bear in mind this feature of the last days, that this deceitfulness arises from good men being on the wrong side." --Fr. Frederick Faber, Sermon for Pentecost Sunday, 1861; qtd. in Fr. Denis Fahey, The Mystical Body of Christ in the Modern World (text here)
- "Everyone should avoid familiarity or friendship with anyone suspected of belonging to masonry or to affiliated groups. Know them by their fruits and avoid them. Every familiarity should be avoided, not only with those impious libertines who openly promote the character of the sect, but also with those who hide under the mask of universal tolerance, respect for all religions, and the craving to reconcile the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution. These men seek to reconcile Christ and Belial (2Cor 6:15), the Church of God and the state without God." - Pope Leo XIII, Encyclical Custodi di Quella Fede, par. 15, Dec. 8, 1892

A few people asked me by email share my comments on the (Hosanna) Obama on channel 4 here in Italy on May 31, 2016. Since we know that the Freemasons have just about total control of the secular mass media and that Obama is their man, it was to expected the Obama was presented in all superlatives in every respect!
Most of the 90 was taken up by a documentary, by Robert Yuhas, about President Obama's years in Chicago (https://www.academicvideostore.com/video/becoming-barack-evolution-leader). You can get a 3-minute taste of this, without wasting your money to buy this video, at: “Becoming Barack: Evolution of a Leader (Trailer)” (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtENbxxmwng).
Other websites about this:


If someone understands Italian, regarding this TV high praise of Obama, you can read:


I am sure that a similar 90 minute video was not shown in the USA about the president of Italy or of France or of Germany! Why the great promotion of Obama by the highly controlled secular mass media in Europe?

When I communicated some of these things to a friend in California, I repeated what I wrote in my article, “Is the Pope Catholic? - The Greatest Schism in Catholic Church History!” (http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2016/05/is-pope-catholic.html):
What was the real reason and goal and perpetrators of September 11, 2001? What were the real effects or fruits of 9-11? After 9-11 why are USA military police doing joint drills with Russian and Chinese military police? From where did Isis, all of a sudden, spring up in Europe with so much money, technology and weapons (http://bibliotecaneval2.altervista.org/califfato-e-anticristo/; http://www.ilgiornale.it/news/mondo/petrolio-trovati-i-documenti-che-provano-legami-turchia-isis-1239631.html)?!? On April 14, 2016, I went to Collevalenza (Italy), Sanctuary of Merciful Love (Madre Speranza); for the first time ever, all the exterior doors and gates were locked and closed and there was a military policeman in front of the sanctuary with a machine gun! Is this extra security in the USA and in Europe, with a buildup of troops all over, for the security of the citizens or to prepare for the New World Order? I said to this young Italian soldier at Collevalenza that Hitler was easily able to brainwash the youth to do what Hitler wanted; now the techniques of controlling the world situation, instigating terrorism, brainwashing the masses and manipulating the youth and the peoples is even more advanced to arrive to the New World Order, which will be far worse than the dictatorship of Hitler at a global level with all the technology of today to render the enter world one big prison camp!


Put into Google: Foreign Troops On Us Soil
And see what you come up with!?!?!


What is the real cause and motive of the immigration into Europe and into USA, “of Biblical proportions”?


A recent document in Italian (August 24, 2015) lists the future objectives of the Freemasonry in Italy. I am sure these objectives are very similar for other countries around the world:
“Increase havoc with revolutions, false flag terrorism and wars (their motto: Ordo ab Chao!) (a Latin expression meaning Order out of Chaos; a motto of the Thirty-third Degree Freemason).
Pass the law “Ius Soli” (easier to obtain Italian citizenship) and allow immigrants to vote (increase uncontrolled immigration: Kalergi plan).
Closure of CIE (Internment Centers for Foreigners) and total opening of the borders.
End of the concept of national citizenship and transition to the concept of apolidism (statelessness, stateless people).”
(“The Future Objectives of the Freemasonry”; http://god-politics.blogspot.it/2016/03/future-objectives-freemasonry.html).


Why are Obama and “Pope Francis” promoting “UNCONTROLLED immigration”? Does Obama really love his neighbor and thus is really concerned for the well-being of the immigrants. Why has all of a sudden immigration began on biblical proportions; who or what group has caused this and is financing the causes of this immigration on biblical proportions both into the USA and into Europe?!?


Why is there silence, even among politicians, about the harm that is being done to people due to the chemtrals that are being sprayed on us from jet planes all over the world? Are we already totally under the New World Order, but we have not been told yet?!? Are we so absorbed with the TV, and the Ipod, and the Ipad, and sex outside of marriage that we no longer care and we no longer have the moral strength to react? Where are the real men, inspired by their wives who pray, ready to sacrifice themselves for their families and for the society in which their families lives in?


- - -


I also wrote to my friend that when I went with a group to Loreto (The House of Loreto here in Italy) on June 9, 2016, there were 3 military vehicles with 7 military men with machine guns. Certainly these military men being put all over Europe are told it is to protect the citizens from ISIS terror attacks; but they have not been told the truth that when the Freemasons are ready to create a major crisis in Europe, these young soldiers will be in place to force the European citizens to accept the New World Order, which in the end will be far worse than the dictatorship of Hitler, and at a world wide level!

Voice of the Family calls on Pope Francis to withdraw Amoris Laetitia


- - -


“During his Mass on Thursday (May 19, 2016), Pope Francis preached a warning to the rich who oppress the poor, focusing on employers who accumulate wealth by misusing those who work for them… This is starving the people with their work for my own profit! Living on the blood of the people. And this is a mortal sin. This is a mortal sin. It requires a great deal of penance, a great deal of restitution, in order to be converted from this sin” (http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/exploiting-workers-is-a-form-of-trafficking-pope-francis-says-13169/).


- - -


“This is a mortal sin”! Surely it is a sin to exploit workers in this way. But if one does not believe in life after death, and the only thing that counts is this short life, then one talks like this, ignoring that which does most harm to the immortal soul, mortal sin, sex outside of marriage. To call this exploitation a mortal sin tells people that the Pope believes sin exists, but only sins against the cult of man but not against the cult of God, against the laws of God. In the document Amoris Laetitia, there is not mentioned even once the word, “mortal sin” or “adultery”. The fundamental root of the decay of society is the decay of the family. There is promoted false mercy of forgiveness for adultery without helping people to understand the deadly poison of adultery which leads to the destruction of the family which is at the root of poverty. There is a hidden contradiction here from “the father of lies” to lead us to our destruction and the destruction of the family while using nice pious words that appeal to the public and cover over the real problem and poison!

The reference to the book on the seer from Rome:
“The Seer Bruno Cornacchiola”


- - -


We are not dealing here with the sincerity or the repentance of a person, but to live the words of Christ! A priest or a bishop or a pope cannot “put asunder” “what God has joined”! It is not a mortal sin to suffer with Christ after being abandoned or treated very badly by a former spouse. Christ was abandoned and treated worse than any of us; His suffering was far greater because He loved far greater and thus the betrayal of His love was far more painful!!! The saints who corresponded with the grace of God, and thus became truly in love with Christ, and not with themselves, discovered: “SUFFERING IS THE GREATEST TREASURE ON EARTH” (Diary of St. Faustina, no. 342).
Would that mortal men might know how wonderful is divine grace, how beautiful , how precious; what riches are hidden therein, what treasures, what joys, what delights. If they but knew, surely they would direct their energy with all care and diligence to procuring sufferings and afflictions for themselves. Instead of good fortune all men everywhere would seek out troubles, illness and suffering that they might obtain the inestimable treasure of grace. This is the final profit to be gained from patient endurance. No one would complain about the cross or about hardships coming seemingly by chance upon him, if he realized in what balance they are weighed before being distributed to men” (St. Rose of Lima; August 23; Breviary).


- - -


For “Pope Francis”, and so many priests and bishops today, there are no more inherently sinful acts, intrinsic evils, contrary to the words of Christ explained by the Catholic Church for 2000 years!


- - -


“There are some who are disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed! As we have said before, so I say again now, if any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed! … Am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? IF I WERE STILL PLEASING MEN, I SHOULD NOT BE A SERVANT OF CHRIST” (Gal 1:7-10; 1Cor 15:1-2).

The Shameful Reception of Bergoglio For The Participants of The "March For Life 2016" In Rome ...
About 30,000 people participated in the "March for Life” in Rome" today, May 8, against abortion and all forms of threats to life itself. When they arrived in St. Peter's Square for the midday Angelus, they expected to receive a warm greeting and a message of encouragement from the Pope but instead.... the only words – very cold and said only out of obligation – were: "I greet the participants in the March for Life"; without adding anything else whatsoever; in fact the marchers – wanting to call the Pope - started yelling to attract attention, so much so that the Pope had to stop reading for a moment and then continued unnerved.
Look at the very cold reception of Bergoglio to 30,000 people gathered in Rome in defense of life. One would be stunned ...
If you do not want to watch the whole Regina Coeli of May 8, 2016, start at 11 minutes.
(“La Vergognosa Accoglienza di Bergoglio ai Partecipanti alla "Marcia Per La Vita 2016" di Roma...; Circa 30.000 persone hanno partecipato alla "Marcia per la vita di Roma" oggi 8 Maggio contro l'aborto e ogni forma di minaccia contro la stessa vita. Quando sono arrivati a Piazza San Pietro per l'Angelus di mezzogiorno, si aspettavano di ricevere un caloroso saluto ed un messaggio di incoraggiamento dal Papa ed invece .... le uniche parole - freddissime e dette solo per obbligo – sono state: *"Saluto i partecipanti alla Marcia per la Vita"*; senza aggiungere nulla di nulla, anzi i partecipanti alla marcia - sentendosi chiamare dal Papa - hanno iniziato ad urlare per attirare l'attenzione, tanto che il Papa si è dovuto fermare nella lettura per qualche istante per poi proseguire innervosito. Guardate la freddissima accoglienza di Bergoglio alle 30.000 persone radunatesi a Roma in difesa per la vita. C'è da rimanere allibiti...).

VOTF Co-founder: Building a Catholic resistance movement
May 9, 2016
John Smeaton, SPUC’s chief executive, and co-founder of Voice of the Family called for a Catholic resistance movement to respond to “the crisis of truth and the crisis of leadership within Catholic Church structures” that seriously threatens the well-being of children and the family. He ended his talk by reading out a letter that he intends to send to Pope Francis, calling on him “to recognize the grave errors in the recently published Apostolic Exhortation, Amoris Laetitia, in particular those sections which will lead to the desecration of the Holy Eucharist and to the harming of our children, and to withdraw the Apostolic Exhortation with immediate effect.”

Spectacular Intervention of Stanislaw Grygiel, Philosopher and Friend of Karol Wojtyla.
Grygiel Demolishes the Bergoglian "Amoris Cunning": "There Is To Be Expect, Soon, Chaos”
He Adds: "There Is Needed A New Pascal"
(For the record, Pascal, in the "Provincial Letters" demolished the casuistry of the Jesuits which ended up destroying the objectivity of Good and Evil. Bergoglio is on this path, but does a lot worse by imposing the "practice" as a new way of doing things (AND NEW DOCTRINE) for the Church: a delegitimization of the moral law and the Word of God which leads the Church into the abyss ... and the people behind her).
The drama of Pope Francis. Amoris laetitia reveals the impossibility to combine discernment in concrete cases with the task of the Church to preach the Truth. Too many casuistry, would serve Pascal.

WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE VATICAN
Nearly ten days after the explosive speech read by Msgr. Gaenswein all is silent. Nobody, not even the talkative guardians of the revolution, ready to thrash anyone who dissents from the bergoglian regime, have uttered a word.
It means that the signal has arrived loud and clear. Do not be fooled by the apparent calm.
In the Church, under the surface of the water, he is flaring the epic clash between Catholics faithful to the faith of all times and the foreign body which already in 2005 attempted the coup ...
Our Lady is gathering her own and - despite this period of darkness and of great trials - the end is already written: the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
But it is necessary the help of all. Each one must give witness to the truth.
Put yourselves on the right side, even if it now costs you suffering and persecution. The reward of God is infinite.


(COSA STA ACCADENDO IN VATICANO; A quasi dieci giorni dall'esplosivo discorso letto da Mons. Gaenswein tutto tace. Nessuno, nemmeno i loquaci guardiani della rivoluzione, pronti a bacchettare chiunque dissenta dal regime bergogliano, hanno fiatato.; Significa che il segnale è arrivato forte e chiaro. Non fatevi ingannare dall'apparente calma piatta.; Nella Chiesa, sotto il pelo dell'acqua, sta divampando l'epico scontro fra i cattolici fedeli alla fede di sempre e il corpo estraneo che già nel 2005 tentò il colpaccio...; La Madonna sta radunando i suoi e - nonostante questo periodo di tenebre e di grandi prove - il finale è già scritto: il trionfo del Cuore Immacolato di Maria.; Ma è necessario l'aiuto di tutti. Ognuno deve dare testimonianza alla verità.; State dalla parte giusta, anche se oggi costa sofferenze e persecuzioni. La ricompensa di Dio è infinita.; http://www.iltimone.org/G%C3%A4nswein:+nel+2005+vi+fu+una+drammatica+lotta+tra+il+partito+ratzingeriano+e+la+%C2%ABmafia+di+San+Gallo%C2%BB/34723,News.html).

Archbishop Gänswein: Benedict XVI Sees Resignation as Expanding Petrine Ministry
Prefect of Pontifical Household also recalls "dramatic struggle" of 2005 Conclave.


- - - - - - -


VATICAN CITY – Archbishop Georg Gänswein recently raised eyebrows by stating that Pope Benedict XVI’s resignation had expanded the nature of the Petrine ministry and revolutionized the papacy.

“Ever more evident that God has withdrawn His grace in such a way that diabolical influence is wreaking havoc”

“There will be the appearance of false peace in the world; one will think of nothing but of entertainment”
Given the state of the world it is good to recall the secret of LA SALETTE as given to Melanie. You will notice particularly the time we are in, with the promotion of sodomite unions, abortion, trans-gender bathrooms, fornication, adultery and all kinds of sexual immorality protected by “hate crime” legislation, with the removal of God from the public square – that is practical atheism: “The politicians will all have the same plan, which will be to abolish and cause to disappear religious principles to substitute them with materialism, atheism, spiritism, and every form of vice.” To the faithful Catholic, it is obvious where this all leads: “tremble, because God is about to hand you over to His enemy, since the holy places are in corruption…”

Instructions For Not Losing the Way in the Labyrinth of “Amoris Lætitia”
Intentionally written in a vague form, the post-synodal exhortation allows two opposite ways out. A Dominican theologian indicates the right one here. As in a little catechism, for the use of priests and faithful
by Sandro Magister
ROME, May 5, 2016 – One month after the publication of the post-synodal exhortation “Amoris Lætitia” it is ever more evident that in interpreting and applying it there is growing “uncertainty and confusion, from the bishops' conferences to the small parishes in the middle of nowhere,” in the forceful criticism of the eminent German philosopher Robert Spaemann, a peer and longstanding friend of Joseph Ratzinger:
The eighth chapter of the exhortation, on “irregular” couples and on communion for the divorced and remarried, is the one at the center of the most conflicting interpretations. With the effect, again according to the criticism of Spaemann, that “each priest who adheres to the until-now valid discipline of the sacraments, could be mobbed by the faithful and be put under pressure from his bishop.”

Our Lady of Good Success and Our Lady of Fatima: Prophecies for Our Times
Marian T. Horvat, Ph.D.
At the end of the 16th century, Our Lady appeared to a Conceptionist sister from Quito, Equador, then colony of the Spanish Crown, under the title of Our Lady of Good Success and commanded that a statue be made. She desired this to do a great good not only for the convent and the Ecuadorian nation, but for the entire West, and even the whole world. She desired this because the convent would stand in special need of her protection in those early days of the Colony, but also because She desired to intervene during a great crisis in the Church and society that would occur in the 20th century…

Prophecies for Our Times
Prophetic revelations made to Venerable Mother Mariana de Jesus Torres
This article is based on excerpts taken from the 18th Century manuscript entitled The Admirable Life of Mother Mariana of Jesus Torres, written by Prior Manuel de Souza Pereira, Franciscan Provincial in Quito, Ecuador and director of the Convent Mother Mariana founded. This manuscript was written a century after her death. Mother Mariana is linked mysteriously to our times by the visions Our Lady showed her of the 20th Century over 350 years ago. This apparition has been approved by the Church and Mother Mariana has been declared Venerable in the first step towards her canonization.

There are no immortal souls in need of eternal salvation to be found in” Amoris Laetitia
In this talk I would like to outline some of the more pressing concerns I have with Amoris Laetitia. These reflections are organized into three sections. Part One will outline General Concerns about AL; Part Two will focus on the now-infamous Chapter Eight; and Part Three will suggest some of the implications of AL for priests and Catholicism.

7.6.2016
The dazzling critique by an Australian scholar on the post-synodal exhortation. “We have lost all foothold, and fallen like Alice into a parallel universe, where nothing is quite what it seems to be”


3.6.2016
Goodbye, Catholic teaching. The worldwide network of schools that the pope is fostering and promoting with great fervor has a completely secularized educational paradigm. Instead of saints, the stars of sports and entertainment


30.5.2016
For Francis, the right interpretation of “Amoris Laetitia” is not that of the prefect of the congregation for the doctrine of the faith, but that of the Austrian cardinal. Here, for the first time, is his complete text


25.5.2016
Startling resemblances between the key passages of the exhortation by Pope Francis and two texts from ten years ago by his main adviser. A double synod for a solution that had already been written


19.5.2016
They have been his guiding criteria ever since he was young. And now they inspire his way of governing the Church. Here they are for the first time, analyzed by a philosopher and frontier missionary


16.5.2016
This is how the pope responded to the question of whether something has changed with respect to the previous discipline on communion for the divorced and remarried. A Dominican theologian explains what this innovation is. But how will it be put into practice?


13.5.2016
He never says all that he has in mind, he just leaves it to guesswork. He allows everything to be brought up again for discussion. Thus everything becomes a matter of opinion, in a Church where everyone does what he wants


11.5.2016
In a monumental discourse in Spain, the prefect of the doctrine of the faith leads the post-synodal exhortation back to the course of the Church’s previous discipline. Too late. Because Francis has already written it so as to imply the opposite


9.5.2016
He displays a willingness to reconsider the dogma of infallibility. But in reality he is vesting full power in himself much more than his immediate predecessors did. And he is acting as an absolute monarch


5.5.2016
Intentionally written in a vague form, the post-synodal exhortation allows two opposite ways out. A Dominican theologian indicates the right one here. As in a little catechism, for the use of priests and faithful


2.5.2016
They celebrated Passover together, but then they went their separate ways again. The four subgroups of the Jews of Israel analyzed for the first time in depth by the Pew Research Center in Washington


28.4.2016
Cardinal Kasper and the progressive wing of the Church of Germany have gotten what they wanted. On communion for the divorced and remarried, Francis is on their side. He made up his mind a while ago, and has acted accordingly


25.4.2016
Not only the doctrine of the Church, but the very words of Jesus on marriage are now reinterpreted in the most varied of ways. According to the biblicist Silvio Barbaglia, in the Gospels absolute indissolubility applies only to couples living as brother and sister “for the kingdom of heaven”


20.4.2016
An essay by Professor Zanatta has come out in Argentina and Italy, on the “populism” of Francis. The thread that ties together his visit to Lesbos and his affinity for the anti-capitalist and anti-globalization “popular movements”


15.4.2016
Lesbos and Lampedusa. Holy door and washing of feet. The briefcase in hand on the airplane staircase. Here is how Francis is enacting the pedagogical theater of the seventeenth-century Jesuits


12.4.2016
The pope has in Fr. Antonio Spadaro, a Jesuit like him, his authorized translator. Here is how “La Civiltà Cattolica” restates in clearer words what “Amoris lætitia” presents in allusive form


7.4.2016
Excerpts from the post-synodal exhortation "Amoris Lætitia." In 264 pages and 325 paragraphs not a single clear word, but many obscure ones, in favor of communion for the divorced and remarried


7.4.2016
They are Baldisseri and Schönborn, whom Pope Francis has chosen to present his take on the post-synodal exhortation. They have already said what they think. The first in a letter, the second in an interview


5.4.2016
Every time Islam is in the middle, Francis is extremely cautious. But on Pakistan his reticence is at its highest. Here is the story of the Christian mother on which he is silent. She has been in prison for seven years, and her fate is interwoven with the Easter massacre in Lahore


1.4.2016
The surprising analysis of the Francis enigma, made by the superior general by the Society of Saint Pius X, Bernard Fellay. With the account of the visits of one cardinal and three bishops, sent secretly from Rome
