And Elias, the prophet, stood up, as a fire, and his word burnt like a torch (Ecclesiasticus. 48.1, DRV)

St. Michael and the Few Elect

+
J.M.J.

Feast of St. Michael the Archangel



We heard in today's Holy Gospel (the Nineteenth Sunday after Pentecost) that many - Jews and Gentiles alike - have been called to the kingdom of God, that is, the Church established by His Only-Begotten Son on Cephas to be the pillar and ground of the truth (1 Tim. 3.15). But only few believed and came to the Church; yet, not all of these few when called will be saved - that is, reputed to be worthy of the celestial nuptial feast because they have not on the wedding-garment. And they will not be saved because they don't have anymore the integrity of the Faith: I will espouse thee to Me in Faith (Os. 2.20). Special reference could therefore be drawn to the 'official' SSPX who, by virtue of 'obedience', now admit that a "tampered liturgy" (Pope John Paul II, in our post "Our Lady and the Diabolical Campaign") or a "fabricated liturgy" (Card. Ratzinger, later Pope Benedict XVI, in his introduction to the French Ed. of Msgr. Gamber's The Reform of the Roman Liturgy) was "legitimately promulgated" ('official SSPX' SG in their official internal bulletin Cor Unum) - in contradiction of  the venerable Abp. Lefebvre who referred to the New Rite of M[e]ss as that "bastard 'Mass'" (having been invented by a Freemason in ecclesiastical trappings: Annibale Bugnini, cf., our post “The Catholic Sanctuary Prefigured II”). Now, how could a "bastard 'Mass'" - a "tampered liturgy" and a "fabricated liturgy" - be legitimately promulgated? Yet, in fact, there was never even a legitimate promulgation made (cf., our posts Obey God, rather than men and "In virtue of OUR Apostolic AUTHORITY")!

Charity seals the divine espousal of the just to his Beloved. But charity is the crowning monument built upon the Faith for Faith… worketh charity. When faced with the Resistance, the ‘official SSPX’ resorted to Sacrament-al ‘blackmail’, as it were, denying Holy Communion to those whom they knew to be sympathetic to the Resistance – as if the Holy Mass in their chapels were Bishop Fellay’s Mass! They have yet to become ‘officially’ part of the Neo-Catholic DisOrder but most certainly, their desire for it has already brought upon them that same New hypocritically ecumenical ‘spirit’ of Vatican II which fulminated ‘excommunication’ and resorted to banishments and propaganda against those who remained steadfast to the Apostolic exhortation: hold the traditions which you have learned (2 Thess. 2.14). Our Lord warned us to the effect also that those who look on the disoriented Neo-Catholic Rome to lust after her have already committed fornication in their hearts (cf., Mt. 5.27-28)!

The God of “Night” however is also the God of consolation. And to His pockets of elect found still throughout the world battling against the dragon under the standard of the Immaculate: He hath given His angels charge over thee; to keep thee in all thy ways [without the spirit of compromise and dissimulation flowing from the Superior as from the sick head (Is. 1.50)] A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand: but it shall not come nigh thee His truth shall compass thee with a shield (Ps. 90.11,7,5). Therefore, Holy Church fittingly commemorates also today the glorious apparition of the Archangel Michael at the head of the heavenly army who will cut our enemies off in [His] truth. “Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio. Contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium!”

The Power and Love of God

+
J.M.J.

Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost

Thy sins are forgiven thee.
(Mt. 9.2)

A poor paralytic is presented to Our Lord; he probably had himself brought there to ask for bodily health, but in the presence of Jesus, he realizes that he is a sinner and remains confused and humiliated before Our Lord. Jesus had already read his heart, and seeing his faith and humility, He does not even wait for him to speak, but suddenly says to him with infinite kindness: Be of good heart, son, thy sins are forgiven thee (today's Holy Gospel, Mt. 9.1-8). The first and the greatest miracle has taken place: the man is no longer a slave of Satan; he is now a child of God. Jesus, Who came to save souls, rightfully healed the soul before the body. For this purpose, the Son of God appeared that He might destroy the works of the devil (1 Jn. 3.8).

This miracle, however, does not please the Scribes who, not believing in the divinity of Jesus, begin immediately in the secret of their hearts to accuse Him of blasphemy (for who could forgive sins but God alone!). But the Master, Who had read the soul of the paralytic, also reads theirs. Why do you think evil in your hearts? If Jesus had seen there even a little humility and faith, He would have been as ready to heal them as He was to heal the heart of the paralytic; but unfortunately, He found nothing but pride and obstinacy. However, He wishes to use every means to soften them, so He gives them the strongest proof of His divinity. But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, then he said to the man sick of the palsy, Arise, take up thy bed, and go into thy house. And he arose and went into his house. The word of Jesus effected immediately what it expressed. The words of God alone could have such power. But the Scribes will not admit that they are defeated: when the heart is proud and obstinate, not even factual evidence is capable of moving it.

Let us never say our faith is weak because we do not see or touch with our hand the truth which is proposed for our belief; let us rather admit that it is weak because our heart is not sufficiently docile to grace, nor entirely free from pride. If we want to have strong faith, let us be as humble and simple as children; if we wish to share in the grace of sanctification which was given to the paralytic, let us offer ourselves to Our Lord with contrite, humble hearts, thoroughly convinced that we nee His help and forgiveness.

The Disorientation of Neo-Catholic Rome Unto Mockery Intensifies

+
J.M.J.T.

Feast of the Nativity of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary



The whole head is sick! 
(Is. 1.5)

The 'Pontifex' called on the false religions to join him in praying for 'peace' in the world, particularly in Syria. This is the Neo-Catholic 'present' to the Most Blessed Virgin who desires but the consecration of Russia to Her Immaculate Heart by the Holy Father in union with the Catholic bishops of the world at a solemn public ceremony to obtain the true peace only the Crucified could establish. And this is how the 'Pontifex' honors the Neo-Catholic ecumenical idol, invented and propagated by the pseudo-Catholic 'theology' (cf., "The New 'Catholic Theology': The Ultimate Delusion of Vatican II 'Catholicism'") and by the New Rite of Protestantized 'Mass' "fabricated" (Card. Ratzinger, later Pope Benedict XVI) by a Freemason in ecclesiastical trappings (cf., "The Catholic Sanctuary... II"), by going against the First Commandment: thou shalt not call upon false gods [false religions!] - since the true God of our Sacred Catholic Tradition has a different peace plan (cf., our post "The Great Secret of Fatima") as heralded by the "Morning Star" which has risen this day. Swiftly, then, will "the Sun of justice" consume what It has to.

'Catholic' - "...and thou art dead!" (Apoc.3.1)

+
J.M.J.

First Saturday of the Month and
Eve of the Feast of the Nativity of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary

Thou hast the name of being alive: and thou art dead! (Apoc. 3.1).


When the Great Sign in heaven - the Woman of the Apocalypse (12.1), cf., "Our Lady at Fatima - Not an Apparition of a Mere 'Private Revelation' as Neo-Catholics Claim It!" - appeared at Fatima in Portugal in 1917, She lamented that, already, "MANY souls go to hell" - and this was when the light of the Faith was not yet eclipsed. Now that the light of the Faith has been eclipsed by the Neo-Catholicism of Vatican II, even more so...

Last Sunday, 15th after Pentecost, the Holy Gospel presents to us the Lord and Savior meeting at the gate of the city of Naim a dead young man being carried away. The Lord of life, taking pity on the grieving and sorrowful mother who is also a widow, brought him - her only child - back to life but by touching only the bier. The Holy Gospel in particularly pointing to the dead to be a young man actually alludes also to the mortal state of MANY a young man - even those who bear the name "Catholic" - because of the Scriptural uncleanness.

In the Book of Numbers, the unclean - every leper, whoever hath an issue of seed*, or is defiled by the dead (5.2) - was to be excluded from the Hebrew camp where God dwells through the ark of the covenant placed in its midst. Now, St. Paul the Apostle speaks of uncleanness as excluding one from the kingdom of God. The works of the flesh are manifest... fornication, uncleanness, immodesty...(Gal. 5.19,21). St. Paul's reference clearly refers to those who issue... seed but not in the lawful act of marriage and not for its end or purpose ordained by the Natural Law: the conception of a new life (cf., Onan who was punished with death by God for wasting his seed and thus making a mockery of the divine purpose, in Gen. 38.9-10); see also, "On the Mortal Sin of Uncleanness Among Men (Wasting of the Seed of Life)".
---
* Those subject to this evil, when a filthy humour, at every moment, cleaveth to his flesh, and gathereth there (Lev. 15.2). Non-Catholic versions do not admit this of those who hath an issue of seed, taking only the sense of pathological bodily discharges as in Lev. 22.4 (KJV in Num. 5.2: 'everyone that hath an issue').
---

Neo-Catholic 'vitality'?

The Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Mother is grieving and sorrowing to see so many souls deprived** of the true Faith - and with it the true Catholic Sacraments*** - by which they could abide in the Lord of life and Him in them!  Everything that is not of [F]aith is sin... But my just man liveth by [F]aith (Rom. 14.23; Heb. 10.38). With our end-times condition of apostasy - the implicit abandonment of the Faith by adherence to the Neo-Catholicism of Vatican II, the revolt spoken of by the Apostle St. Paul and thus understood by the Fathers of the Church as the falling off of Catholic nations from the Church - spoken of by Our Lord, But yet, the Son of man, when He cometh, shall He find, think you, Faith on earth? (Lk. 18.8), and referred to by Our Lady at Fatima in introducing the Third Part of Her "Great Secret", "[Not in Rome will] the dogma of the Faith... [be] always... preserved, etc.," comes its "basest" (St. John Chrysostom in our post "Our Lady, Vatican II Disorientation, and the Annihilation of Many Nations") moral consequence: widespread impurity: uncleanness among men, fornication, adultery, and homosexuality.

(Go to Joseph!)". ** Cf., "Our Lady and the Disorientation of Rome", "New 'Catholic Theology': the Ultimate Delusion of Vatican II 'Catholicism'", "A Perilous 'Catholic' Voyage", "The Year 1929", "Russia's Errors Spreading from the Neo-Catholic Rome", "Pope Francis Proclaims the Neo-Catholic Gospel of 'Universal Salvationism'", and "Lumen fidei - a 'Modernist faith' or the Faith?" *** Cf., "A Lie at the Very Heart of the New Mass: PBXVI Motu Proprio on the Traditional Latin Mass - A Toleration [of evil]" and "Pope Benedict XVI on the New Mass - Outbalanced Liturgy"

"Depart from us!"

+
J.M.J.

Feast of Pope St. Pius X



"We were terrified beyond all else by the disastrous state of human society today. For who can fail to see that society is at the present time, more than in any past age, suffering from a terrible and deep-rooted malady which, developing everyday and eating into its most inmost being, is dragging it to its destruction?... - apostasy from God [1789 revolutionary principle of secularism: separation of the Church and State]...

For in truth, the [nations] have raged... (the kings of the earth stood up, and the princes met together, against the Lord, and against His Christ. Let us break Their bonds asunder: and let us cast away their yoke from us) - Ps. 2.1,2-3; so frequent is the cry of the enemies of God: Depart from us (Job 21.14). And as migt be expected we find extinguished among the majority of men all respect for the Eternal God, and no regard paid in the manifestations of public and private life to the supreme Will. Verily no one of sound mind can doubt the issue of this contest between man and the Most High. Man, abusing his liberty, can violate the right and the majesty of the Creator of the Universe; but the victory will ever be with God.

...[N]ay, defeat is at hand at the moment when man, under the delusion of his triumph, rises up with most audacity. Of this we are assured in the holy books by God Himself. Unmindful, as it were, of His strength and greatness, He overlooks the sins of men (Wisd. 11.24), but, swiftly, after these apparent retreats, awaked like a mighty man that hath been surfeited with wine (Ps. 77.65), He shall break the heads of His enemies (Ps. 67.22)" (Pope St. Pius X, E Supremi Apostolatus, 4th October 1903).

"You have dishonored Me!" (Jn. 8.49)

+
J.M.J.

Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost

God is not mocked!
(from today's Epistle, Gal. 5.25,26; 6.1-10)

The Apostles claim to be the ambassadors of God (cf., 2 Cor. 5.20). Among them, the Prince - St. Peter and his successors (Ac. 1.24-26) - is the Vicar of the Sovereign Lord and King of kings. But the man who claims to be the Vicar of Christ bowing before a woman "infidel"? The ''Pontifex' plays the servant of the 1789 revolutionaries "lodged in the Vatican" (the late Fr. Malachi Martin, S.J. and our post "The Year 1929") preaching by his example their principle of religious indifferentism - repeatedly anathematized by the Sovereign Pontiffs (cf., our post "Papal Condemnation of the Freemasons and their Doctrines"):

'Pontifex' pays homage to the wife of Jordan's ruler


Woe to the man by whom scandal cometh!
(Mt. 18.7)

Once, Our Lord severely rebuked the Prince of the Apostles: Go behind Me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto Me! (Mt. 16.23). Verily indeed, the Word of God is living and more piercing than any two-edged sword [which once pierced Cephas and now piercing his successors] (Heb. 4.12)!

Salvation is in the "Blood of the Lamb"

Apocalypse XIV now unfolding (cf., our posts "The Wine of the Wrath of God" and "After Pope Benedict XVI, the 'Last' Roman Pontiff?"). The divine chastisement of world-wide conflagration (Lk. 17.29-30, cf., our post "Our Lady, Vatican II Disorientation, and the Annihilation of Many Nations") to annihilate the 'super-power' and cities and nations drunk with the wine of its immodesty, impurity, fornication, homosexuality, and blasphemies (Apoc. 14.8) is imminent - the close of our end-times period (distinct from the consummation of the world, Mt. 28.20).

They... have made them white in the Blood of the Lamb
(Apoc. 7.14) ... All things... are cleansed with Blood: and without shedding of Blood there is no remission (Heb. 9.22).

The Blood of the [Divine] Lamb can be availed of in the traditional Rite of the Sacrament of Penance (cf., our post "On Concealing Sins in Confession") and of the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist (the Traditional Latin Mass). Go to our traditional Catholic Mass Centers (links on the left-side bar of this site). Flee to the mountains... (Mt. 24.16).
