Countdown to the Kingdom

Your defense of the indefensible leaves you frustrated. What about us sheep? What about the seven long years that the shepherd has been out trying to overturn what was set in place for 2000 years? The last thing that Pope Francis will talk about today is the priesthood. He will talk about washing the feet of the poor, the immigrants and that we have to do the same. He will not lift up his priests today.

 

Pope Francis is from Argentina as are you yourself. I wonder if National Pride might be influencing your Judgement?

 

What about the Holy Father sinning against us?

We're Catholics so of course we're united with him. If we weren't united with him we wouldn't be Catholics.

We've had bad, stupid and wicked Popes before this. Many of them. No doubt we will have many in the future.

Recognising we're stuck with another one does not make us bad people.

Although I don't for a minute regard our present Holy Father as stupid, far from it.

Wicked. Yes.

Stupid. No. If he were stupid he might have some excuse for his wickedness.

 

We must pray for him and each other. Tremendous battle is now enjoined for each of our souls.

 

Only God can make the Final Judgement that will send him to either Hell or Heaven, as He will Judge us all.

But God never asked us not to call a spade a spade. The spade here is that Pope Francis is a thoroughly no good Pope
..and that's the understatement of all time.

 

Can I respectfully suggest that the debate is saved for another time. For today can we remember Our Lord's prayer to the father as he looked around him at the Last Supper: Ut unum sint - that they may be one. John 17:21

 

Papal infallibility is limited --

I am a great admirer of John Paul II but he made mistakes too -

Like the time he kissed the Koran causing scandal - and his reference to pachamama although a very fleeting reference is best disregarded.

And this is a fact Pachamama 'is a goddess revered by the indigenous people of the Andes'.

Since there is one God the Holy Trinity how can any Catholic justify revering a pagan goddess or even having/blessing a graven image of a pagan goddess?

 

Not sealing ourselves out of peters boat
St. John Paul did not speak ex cathedra about the Pachamama.
St Vincent Ferrer thought that the Second Coming of Jesus was imminent about 1000 years ago.

 

You started this

 

Excuse me for intruding into this ongoing threat but I am a new member brought here because I am investigating Fr. Michel Rodrigue, having just seen a video on You Tube, and being quite skeptical as I think is prudent. Before I immerse myself in speeches that do not come from God, I am eager to see what is known about this man and what the Church says about him. What is his standing with Rome (i.e., is he perceived as legitimate)? Thank you for any comment.

 

Ezdra, I am amazed at the structure of Mr. Armstrong's argument, for he appears to me to shoot himself in the foot!

First, the good Pope states that blessed is the one who seeks God from the heart! Yes! Second, he states that it is God who brings forth the produce of the earth! Yes! Third, John Paul II then states that their ancestors credited Pachamama for such goodness. Dare I say in ignorance. Fourth, the good Pope then stresses that the marvels of creation should now: raise your thoughts to the God of the heights, the creator God of the universe, who has manifested to us in Christ Jesus, our Brother and Savior." Alleluia!

How on earth does the above justify the fiasco that occurred at the Vatican last fall? There, a statue of pachamama was processed into the Vatican Gardens, blessed by Pope Francis, and then many bowed down to it, fortunately not the Pope. Following that, it was carried by cardinals and processed into St. Peter's. Those present then formed a circle around these idols with their backs to the main altar. I'll stop there.

Did such abominable actions raise...thoughts to the God of the heights, the creator God of the universe, who has manifested to us in Christ Jesus, our Brother and Savior." No! Pope John Paul II would certainly disagree! He never advocated for it in the above article!

Lord have Mercy!

 

Wonderful way of looking at things, Julia!

Safe in the Father's Arms!

 

Fr. Michel Rodrigue is fully legitimate. Just take a look at the Diocese of Amos official Webpage:
Under "Institutes of consecrated Life", his Fraternity is presented as a Diocesan Association since 2011:


And under the tab on "Formation/Spiritual Growth", the Diocese of Amos presents his work as professor of Theology and formator


All this is also presented in the official Annuaire Diocesain 2019-2020, including his name among the priests of the Diocese.
http://www.diocese-amos.org/sn_uploads/fck/Annuaire_diocesain_2019-2020.pdf

etc.

You just CAN'T GET MORE OFFICIAL THAN THAT in the Catholic Church.

If you want to know more, pray for humility, and then listen to his words, written and in video. And you will KNOW IN YOUR HEART that he speaks TRUTH.

 

Fr. Michel Rodrigue

Priest, Mystic, Exorcist, Founder and Superior General of The Apostolic Fraternity of Saint Benedict Joseph Labre
(Order founded in 2012)

Taken from the best-selling book, The Warning: Testimonies and Prophecies of the Illumination of Conscience:

Fr. Michel Rodrigue is the founder and Abbott of a new religious order approved by the Catholic Church: The Apostolic Fraternity of St. Benedict Joseph Labre in the diocese of Amos in Quebec, Canada. Born into a faithful Catholic family of twenty-three children, Michel grew up poor. His family lived on a small piece of farmland, where hard work and bumpy trips to Sunday Mass with multiple children on horseback kept his family alive in body and spirit.

Like St. Padre Pio and other chosen souls, God the Father began speaking to Michel at a tender age. “When I was three years old,” says Fr. Michel, “God began to speak to me, and we would have regular conversations. I remember sitting under a big tree behind our home on our family farm and asking God, ‘Who made this tree?’

‘I did,’ God answered. And when He pronounced the word, ‘I,’ I was suddenly given a vast view of the Earth, the universe, and myself, and I understood that everything was made and held in existence by Him. I thought that everyone talked to God the Father. From age three to six, the Lord instructed me in the faith and gave me a thorough theological education. He also told me, when I was three, that I would be a priest.”
God the Father gave Michel such a thorough education in theology that when he attended the Grand Seminary of Quebec after high school, he tested out of his classes with an A+. Michel subsequently studied psychology and areas of theology, such as mariology, pneumatology, the writings of the Church Fathers, graduating with a doctorate in theology.

After founding and managing a shelter for homeless youth, which offered them psychological and spiritual care, Michel Rodrigue was ordained a diocesan priest at the age of thirty. He served as a parish priest for five years in northern Ontario until his bishop discerned that his talents would be best utilized forming future clergy. Fr. Michel then became a Sulpician priest teaching theology at the Grand Seminary of Montreal.
On Christmas Eve, 2009, Fr. Michel’s priesthood took an extraordinary turn. He was awakened in the night by the presence of St. Benedict Joseph Labre, who stood by his bedside, shaking his shoulder to get his attention. Fr. Michel was awakened and heard the voice of God the Father say, “Stand.” So Fr. Michel stood up. “Go to the computer.” So he obeyed. “Listen and write.” That is when God began to dictate the entire constitution for a new religious order, faster than Fr. Michel could type. He had to tell God to slow down!

Then God suddenly whisked Fr. Michel into a mystical flight to the land in the Diocese of Amos, Quebec, where He wanted the monastery built, and showed him in detail the monastery’s design. God the Father told Fr. Michel that he would be the founder of this monastery. He would start a new religious order called Fraternité Apostolique Saint Benoît-Joseph Labre (The Apostolic Fraternity of St. Joseph Benedict Labre) in order to prepare priests for the future of the Catholic Church. Fr. Michel initially responded with feelings of panic, as his obligations were already overwhelming, but quickly realized that saying no to the Father wasn’t an option. Today the first of the two monastery buildings is now built, exactly as God desired.

God has gifted Fr. Michel Rodrigue with extraordinary intellectual and spiritual gifts, such as healing, reading souls, a photographic memory (which lessened after many severe illnesses and eight heart attacks!), prophecy, locutions, and visions. He has a naturally joyful disposition and a ready laugh, while at the same time, a great seriousness concerning the things of God. He is an official exorcist of the Church, in addition to his duties as a seminary professor, hospital minister, parish priest, and most recently, as the founder and Superior General of the new religious fraternity in French-speaking Quebec. Fr. Michel Rodrigue receives the full support of his bishop, and all of his locutions and visions are submitted to his local ordinary for approval.

Our Lady, herself, has named Fr. Michel Rodrigue, “Apostle of the End Times.” Few, if any, have been given such thorough and helpful knowledge of the immediate future of our world. Fr. Michel therefore paints for us on a larger canvas, which reveals the interconnectedness and relevance of prophecies for our time, including those in Scripture. “Now, I understand! Now I see!” Say people who have heard Fr. Michel and who have previously sojourned into prophetic texts and emerged cross-eyed.

The words of Fr. Michel on this website are taken from recordings of his presentations. Some of his talks on the same subject have been combined into one, and in occasional places, the translation is not verbatim in order to use proper English grammar.

Fr. Michel is an obedient son of the Catholic Church. A few websites have posited, without his permission, words about him and from him, which are not entirely factual. Fr. Michel, for instance, does not support or even know of the messages of Maria Divine Mercy, and he supports Bishop Matthew H. Clark’s investigation of John Leary, which declared Mr. Leary’s messages to be of human origin. See his signed statement here.Hopefully, this website clears up any confusion.

We invite you to read about Fr. Rodrigue, starting with his story and to follow the texts and videos in the order they are presented. To move through them in any other way may bring you needlessly scramble your understanding, as each talk and message from heaven builds on the last.

Thank you for the invite, Ezdra.

May all be united by means of this Sacred Triduum!

 

One can't be too careful now. We are in chastisement. Something is behind it, don't ask me how I know this, it's probably part of what I was told when I saw the Blessed Mother at five (I was dying from pneumonia). I've always known "in my lifetime" something worldwide was going to happen. This isn't "it", it's the beginning. I can't imagine being in his position but then I consider myself a sinner not a saint and without our Mother's warning things might have been very different for me. I don't have an interest because of his prophecies, I have an interest because of what's happening to him. If these apparitions and "visits' are real, are from GOD (because we know perfectly well such things can be from other source) then this is important validation in many ways. TY for your information, really appreciated.

 

It is not necessary for our salvation to believe in any apparitions, even the approved ones. God will shepherd His people. I am just offering my two cents. There are many approved apparitions and locutions which speak to these times.

 

Now then, getting back to the actual site itself, as this thread has offered for those interested. One of the many offerings w/ Peter Bannister:

Peter Bannister, MTh, MPhil, musician, theologian, and author, welcomes you to his series on discernment to help you navigate the new, informative website of heaven's message for our times:

Exactly!

 

Pope Francis and his hierarchy brought a pagan idol into the Vatican Church for worship. Are you just now waking up to this? This is what the pagans did in the old testament that I quoted and it brought God's wrath down. Look at Father Pacwa's youtube video I provided to you on my last post, if you don't understand the evil that this pope participated in, or stay ignorant and believe you have a holy pope. Your holy pope is once again blaming the Coronavirus on mistreating mother earth....... wow!! The evil he participated with the Pachamama is much much worse that anything done to mother earth!!!
