Highlight: Another False Seer Exposed, Maria Divine Mercy is a Fraud!

Hello Everyone.

Normally, I don't cover this stuff. I don't like to get into "Seers" and visionaries, and the only one that I care remotely about, despite a small number being approved by the Church such as Lourdes, Fatima, and Akita, is Fatima. For the most part, I think it's just lies and temptations to evil, laced with the deadly sin of greed.

However, a few days ago, I was in contact with someone on the phone. I unfortunately had to listen to a lot of horrible misfortune in the person's life, and some disturbing conspiracy theory details that I just couldn't really credit, but it turns out the guy is a devotee or credits Maria Divine Mercy, another one of these hokey seers that is dividing the Catholic Faithful, just like Medjugore.

Well, a blog that I view for certain reasons, churned this beauty! Turns out ... the truth of MDM is revealed ... her name, and the shady business dealings behind the visions, as well as what some Church investigation has revealed about her ... long story short, HER VISIONS ARE NOT FROM MARY!!!! THEY ARE MORE LIKELY FROM THE DEVIL!!! Even our Holy Father, just last week, made a homily about "Mary not being a postmaster sending posts", which we, who aren't stupid and can read between the lines, knows he disapproves of what's going on at Medjugore.

Anyways, read here everyone: http://midwaystreet.wordpress.com/2013/11/11/8/.

And please, do not be swayed by these false profits, masquerading as visionaries. There's more than one mask the Devil wears to persuade others to fall and serve him. It doesn't always have to be the usual lie-beral means or ideaologies and methods. He uses more crafty means for those who aren't so easily swayed by his usual tricks .... trads behaving badly included.

Man ... I've really not been hearing and seeing great things in my life recently online and in person with regards to the Catholic Church. Please pray for one another, and fast, and do penance. I think things are really starting to turn for the worse ....

Pax, Julian.

GASP! FRANCIS WAGES WAR WITH THE DEVIL IN PUBLIC!!!!

Hello Everyone.

Let me tell you, Francis is one Pope who does not take spiritual warfare lightly. Constantly in his fervorinos, covered only by Vatican Radio or News.Va (which forwards the articles from Vatican Radio), he has been not afraid to mention the Evil One and all his false lies and promises in this post-modern, secular world. He's no joke when it comes to the four last things, especially Hell and the Evil One, who rules that domain (not by choice or God's commission. St. Michael bested him in battle and speared him down to that infernal abyss).

This past Sunday when he celebrated Mass in St. Peter's Square, he took things to the next level, in public, exorcising  or at least started the process of exorcising 4 demons possessing a man in the public square. Here's the link covering this story from the Associated Press:

http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/E/EU_VATICAN_POPE_AND_THE_DEVIL?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2013-05-21-10-08-39

Also, there is a YouTube video that has appeared here. The text is in Spanish, but once can clearly see what was taking place in the square here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=9XHYFiAH4hY

May 21, 6:31 PM EDT

Read the article and watch the video for yourself. Clearly, this was no ordinary reaction to the prayer, and further, the Vatican's lead exorcist Fr. Amorth, well known after his commentary on the Anthony Hopkins led movie, The Rite, completed the act with a true, full exorcism of the man yesterday. So hopefully those demons were vanquished (unless those demons are in it for a long haul. Considering this man was involved in the pro-abortion industry, I wouldn't be surprised.)

Seriously everyone, this is no flimsy pope. This Pope, might just be one of the most gutsy and fearless Popes that we have come to have line our Papacy. A humble man from outside of Europe, who doesn't indulge in the trappings of his cohorts, now is becoming one of the fiercest fighters against our biggest enemy. More and more he is seeming like the right man at the right time, for how our world is disintegrating into savagery and inhumanity at the Evil One's manipulation and lies, he is becoming the biggest example of Spiritual Combat!

Ever see those children's shows, or movies, where a regular joe or young boy is plucked from obscurity into the heat of a war against an evil overlord or an empire, and becomes the champion and mightiest fighter of them all? You know, like Star Wars with Luke Skywalker being the One to bring balance to the Force? Well it sounds just like that.

Another Fervorino from Pope Francis ... Triple mention of the Devil in Homily and Some More Truth

Hello Everyone.

For those ninnys who were wining about Pope Francis being a liberal pope and being the death knell to Trad Catholics everywhere ... you should seriously start tuning into the web. Once again, you'd think that Pope Francis was a secret Trad in disguise as a Liberal. You'd think he was even embodying the spirit of your Latin Mass homilist/Celebrant at your parish .... because not just once again, BUT TWICE, our Holiness mentioned the Evil One in his Homily! Or as we should be calling them now, his Fervorinos!

Once again, News.Va, through Vatican Radio, reported on another one of his fire and birmstone homilies from his Vatican Mass on April 30, 2013. The link is here or here at News.va. I'd like to focus on a couple of particular parts though.

1) DOUBLE MENTION OF THE EVIL ONE: "We can safeguard the Church, we can cure the Church, no? We do so with our work, but what’s most important is what the Lord does : He is the only One who can look into the face of evil and overcome it. The prince of the world comes but can do nothing against me: if we don’t want the prince of this world to take the Church into his hands, we must entrust it to the One who can defeat the prince of this world ...." 

Whoa! Like I said last time, I think that if he continues like this, Pope Francis may become the Pope who called out against the Devil and mentioned of him the most in the history of the Papacy! I think my count is now 5 times in the span of 1.5 months since his Papacy began that I've recorded. I am likely wrong in my count. Lets continue ...

2) Prayer for the Church and THE EVIL ONE ONCE MORE!: ".... Here the question arises: do we pray for the Church, for the entire Church? ..." Good point. When we go to Mass or pray privately, we likely pray for ourselves, our families, whomever asked us to pray for them, our needs, and more likely, our wants. Do we ever pray for His Holy Bride, who is the means to get to Him, and Eternal Salvation, and further, that one thing standing in the way of total domination by the Evil One of this finite life? 

Speaking of that vile spew ... " .... "Entrust the Church to the Lord is a prayer that makes the Church grow. It is also an act of faith. We can do nothing, we are poor servants - all of us - of the Church: it is He who keeps her going and holds her and makes her grow , makes her holy, defends and protects her from the prince of this world and what he wants the Church to become, in short more and more worldly. This is the greatest danger! When the Church becomes worldly, when she has the spirit of the world within herself, ... the Church is a weak Church, a defeated Church, unable to transmit the Gospel, the message of the Cross, the scandal of the Cross ... She cannot transmit this if she is worldly”.

Another mention of the Devil???? Is he seriously wanting a fight or something????

Whoa! Once again, the Pope is calling out those elements of the Church who are the lazy and lukewarm and corrupt with power! The laity, the priests and bishops who are Judases amongst us or complacent and truly secular and self-centered, Pope Francis is calling you out! You are part of why the Church has lost authority in anything in society! You just let the Church become another NGO as the Pope has said, which is no better than any other religion. You give  no reason to want to be Catholic, and you are not setting the example amongst your contemporaries why being Catholic is AWESOME! And you wonder why no one wants to be a priest or nun. Really, if you don`t want to go 100% and you want to dissent from Catholic doctrine/dogmas, why are you even calling yourself Catholic? It's not about what you WANT, it's about your ultimate need for spiritual salvation, which no Mercedes-Benz(TM), mocha-whatchamacallit, million-dollar mansion, or even your family and friends and other "churches" can fill. They won't. 

3) Catholic Life is not easy, so don't expect comfort being a Catholic on Earth: ".... With this attitude, He will give us, in the midst of tribulations, the peace that only He can give . This peace which the world cannot give, that peace that cannot be bought, that peace which is a true gift of the presence of Jesus in the midst of his Church. Entrusting the Church that is in distress: there are great tribulations, persecution ... there are. But there are also small tribulations: the small tribulations of illness or family problems ...`` ... the Church ... “will do us and the Church good. It will give us great peace [and although] it will not rid us of our tribulations, it will make us stronger in our sufferings”.

That`s right folks. The Church isn`t some magic cure-all for your problems because you have the means to eternal salvation and accepted Jesus into your heart. He will NOT give you an easy time to get to Him, due to this world. Even this world rejected Jesus when he was alive, even so much as to crucify Him. You will gain the benefits and strengths in actual graces needed to persevere, and have the foretaste of Heaven in the Holy Mass via the Sacrament of the Eucharist. You even have the Sacrament of Reconciliation when you sin.   If you think that just cause you are Catholic you have the golden ticket, you signed up for the wrong faith, and should go be "spiritual" elsewhere.

But there will be trials ... great trials, and small ones. No trial was left out by our Holy Father. Also, he did not leave out persecution. Already, our brethren in the Middle East are being killed and persecuted, especially in Muslim-dominated countries, so much that many have fled  and this Archdiocese has been sponsoring those refugees to come to Canada and helping them become established here (I think mainly through Sharelife charities). However, don`t think you are lucky. Between Obama, Wynne, the other provincial premiers, and yes, even Harper to an extent (or whomever will come after him federally in Canada), we true, practicing Catholics (not the Judases) are NOT SAFE. Gradually our rights are being eroded in favour of sexual minorities (e.g. homosexuals) and non-traditional families, and not liking what we have to say, selfish parties and interest groups will be pushing for further persecution of us legally until Catholics will be forced to either abandon Jesus, or to become persecuted themselves and incarcerated or forced into poverty/hiding from the law. This is already happening in developed countries in Europe. North America will soon follow suit. And the Pope isn`t stupid. HE GETS THIS!

So once again, clearly we have a traditionally doctrinal/theological Pope. Yeah he's not having a 40-piece choir singing Mozart's "Grand Daddy Mass" or whatever Gregorian Choirmasters prefer, and a Missa Pontificale every Sunday in the Extraordinary form, nor enforcing all churches to have one Latin Mass, but for those of you still thinking this pope is the death knell to Traditional Catholicism, YOU ARE DEAD WRONG! STOP BELIEVING THE LIES OF THE RADTRADS! 

If you want your liturgy that badly, stop supporting ultra-radical traditionalist societies, keep influencing your dioceses parish by parish, seminarian by seminarian, layperson by layperson, to at least give more solemnity to Novus Ordo Masses or at best to use the EF, and know your apologetics for the Latin Mass without bashing the ``Novus Ordo`` people for those who have been mis-educated, regardless of their status. 

By the way, you are not going most of the reports and quotes of these fervorinos, shamefully, on the Vatican's main website. You can only find them on either Vatican Radio's site (English) at: http://en.radiovaticana.va/index.asp/, or on the Vatican's main Internet News portal, www.news.va/ under the title, "Pope: ...".

Pax, Julian.

P.S. Blog rules apply here. Outside of the blog, don't harass my friends and colleagues, laity or clerical.

Oh Man! Francis Once Again Hits a Homiletic Home Run! Monday's Mass Homily about Calumny

Hello Everyone.

Wow. Just a month into his papacy and Pope Francis is starting to hit the homiletics hard! While he hasn't gotten to fire and brimstone homilies just yet, these recent homilies of his are becoming quite in line with what Benedict XVI has proclaimed, and even more curt I say.

This past Monday, in Mass with the Vatican telecommunications office staff, he gave a "fervorino," an Italian term for a small, but passionate homily. The coverage of the summary of his homily is here on the Vatican's online news service, news.va: http://www.news.va/en/news/pope-calumny-destroys-the-work-of-god-in-people. Considering it was the telecommunications office, they got a well-needed homily appropriate to their jobs.

Besides focusing on the account of the Church's first recorded martyr, St. Stephen, he then proceeded to attack one of the most egregious "social" sins in my opinion plaguing our post-modern society, of which has been attacking the Church from all quarters, calumny. The first reading of Monday's Novus Ordo allowed him to open up into this, as he states, " ... Stephen was a victim of calumny. He is accused of “false witness” but it is not a “fair fight, a fight between good men” ... Stephen’s enemies chose the path of a dirty fight, “the path of calumny ....”

Now this is where I really got interested in what Francis had to say: ".... Calumny he continued is worse than sin - it is the direct expression of Satan."

WHAT!!!!???? ANOTHER MENTION OF THE EVIL ONE????? I swear, already I have seen two homilies from this Pope mentioning the Devil and his false works. Wow! Once again the Pope is courageous enough to call a spade a spade. If this trend continues, we might have a historical first post-Vatican II as the Pope who mentioned the Devil in his homily the most times!!! At least you can't say Francis is soft on the spiritual war we undertake as Church militant. If this is what he has to offer in his first few weeks as Pope perhaps a year from now he'll churn out something big.

Going back to the topic on calumny, how right of him to call the Devil out on this, and the disgusting filth of this sin. Calumny is exactly what it is: Lying! Lying by debasement of one`s character to inflict intentional damage of any sort to a person, or persons.  And the Devil? Traditional Catholics/Priests know him by another title: "THE FATHER OF LIES". Between the Devil being depicted by Dante in the farthest, deepest circle of hell with its main sin of Pride, and his big lie in the Fall of Adam and Eve, I am not surprised for His Holiness to call this sin out for what it is and it's connection to the works of the Devil.

Back to his homily, ""We are all sinners; all of us. We all commit sins. But calumny is something else. It is of course a sin, too, but it is something more. Calumny aims to destroy the work of God, and calumny comes from a very evil thing: it is born of hatred. AND HATE IS THE WORK OF SATAN. Calumny destroys the work of God in people, in their souls. Calumny uses lies to get ahead. And let us be in no doubt, eh?: Where there is calumny, there is Satan himself. "

(Mouth is dropped for 5 seconds ...). This is incredible. This was blunt, direct, and intentional for the sake of our spiritual salvation. Further, in our media saturated world, both the secular and Catholic media of both sides, Traditional and "liberal/Cafeteria" Catholic, have been attacking other faithful, spiritual and episcopal offices, and the Holy Father with slander. Social media has only intensified this vile sin of calumny, under the guise of "telling the TRUTH"/what they refuses to tell you, or as weapons of control and order for selfish purposes, all the while disregarding the humanity and spiritual soul of the person(s) at the receiving end of the calumnist's lies. These liars fail to realize their actions can damage the recipients permanently, to the point of translating into self-harm, even suicide. Look at young men and women in middle and high school who are bullied into suicide, when the calumnists call them anything from fat to implying loose sexual mores, or disposing entirely of their human dignity for any reason. Even saying anything as simple as the classic "you are a loser" is an example of calumny and participating in the Evil One's works.

Further, the Pope discussed the accused, Stephen, with regard to his martyrship, but had these words to say to us ... all of us, especially Catholics: "But the age of martyrs is not yet over, even today we can say, in truth, that the Church has more martyrs now than during the first centuries. The Church has many men and women who are maligned through calumny, who are persecuted, who are killed in hatred of Jesus, in hatred of the faith: some are killed because they teach the catechism, others are killed because they wear the cross ... Today, in many countries, they are maligned, they are persecuted ... they are our brothers and sisters who are suffering today, in this age of the martyrs".

That`s right. Our Christian/Catholic brethen in some European/Middle Eastern countries or ones with predominantly militant theocracies (e.g. Muslim extremism in Egypt) are being persecuted. Don't however think that we are so fortunate in a "Western" or "democratic" nation. Quickly, yet in small steps, our freedom of religion is being eroded, and our education systems are being attacked by our secular governments at the regional/provincial levels and even federally. E.g. Obama and mandatory contraception provisions, McGuinty/Broten/Wynne and the sex education curriculum in schools + Bill 13 "anti-bullying law" that was passed in Ontario law recently.

Between politicians who at the least will not even pass bills on legislating the right to life, to those who maliciously enforce what can be taught in the education systems of our schools which violates the ethos and central goal of Catholic education, and the promotion of sexual and moral indecencies (with accompanying increases in legal statuses in such favour or for liberal supporters), we in future, or in your childrens' future, may be looking at persecution even in these developed, democratic nations. We are talking permanent jail time at the least, with possible militant force (just wait for a martial law/emergency law/reinstatement of death penalty edict, and this might even come about somehow from "conservatives" ...).

And so, the Pope called out this disgusting work of the Devil, which has especially been plaguing Traditional Catholic blogs as of late, and gave us sharp words of warning. I do hope you, and others who see this, will take heed and spiritual stock of themselves and turn to Him, who is Lord.

Pax Tibi Christi. Julian.

Pope Francis Mentions the Devil in his Homily??? Wow. Not Afraid at All ...

To all the naysayers about our Holy Father ..... Whoa ....

http://www.news.va/en/news/pope-the-struggle-to-reject-gossip

Let Me highlight the key part, as Fr. Z has done on his blog:

"Pope Francis further developed this reflection. “When we prefer to gossip, gossip about others, criticize others- these are everyday things that happen to everyone, including me – these are the temptations of the evil one who does not want the Spirit to come to us and bring about peace and meekness in the Christian community”. “These struggles always exist” in the parish, in the family, in the neighborhood, among friends”. Instead through the Spirit we are born into a new life, he makes us “meek, charitable.”"

You hear that? He's like Harry Potter calling Voldemort for what he is (oooh another traddie violation. This time it's 80 lashes for me!). No fear in our Holy Father. 

Further, the topic was on GOSSIP, something, as evidenced by my last post (which was laced with Anti-Semitism), seems to be one of those nagging strands of poison that have affected some in the EF blogosphere/Traditional Catholic communities. 

Still ... If calling out against the work of the Devil is a warm up, what more is to come of this Papacy? ... I think we haven't seen his trump cards yet ....

Pax, Julian.
