Y'all should all read the book The War of the Antichrist Against the Church and Christian Civilization, by Monsignor Dillon. What is going on in the world and the Church will make so much sense. Everything at Tan Books is 50% off right now, so the hardcover is $15...not bad.
Thanks! This is great, although I will say that the recently-published book version has some present-day additions in the form of a note at the beginning, and footnotes at the bottoms of pages that explain people and events that Monsignor Dillon assumed people at that time (late 1800's) would know about....but that we don't necessarily know. I especially found the editor's introduction at the beginning to be helpful, because he talked a lot about (and quoted) Pope Leo XIII, and taught about the history leading up to freemasonry as it is today, including the influence of Voltaire, whom I didn't know much about. There was some really important and interesting stuff in there, particularly quotes.
[ Thanks, PF! Thorough and educational. It's academic thrust might not be as appealing as a novel, but if one is oblivious to the deceit of freemasonry, it is an enlightening asset.
I wasn't even oblivious. I thought I knew a good amount about freemasonry, but this book has put so many puzzle pieces into place that I see everything in a much clearer light. I'll give one example, for those here who haven't read the book. The freemasons said that they would never allow a freemason to be pope. The reasoning was mainly that they didn't want someone climbing the ranks of freemasonry out of personal ambition to become pope, and they also seemed to be afraid of treachery--a freemason pope converting, and revealing the secrets of freemasonry. They allowed other freemasons to climb the clerical ranks, but only to try to manipulate the pope. They wanted a pope that would be good-hearted but naive, easily manipulated, who had grown up influenced and indoctrinated by a culture already drenched in freemasonic values. They would try to control the pope in such a way that he would not realize it was evil...that he'd believe he was doing good for the Church. I think this is something very important for us to know. Our pope is not evil. But he is being besieged and deceived on a daily basis by freemasons within the Vatican. We need to pray hard for him. Constantly criticizing him and saying he's an evil antipope only helps the freemasons triumph. They are the ones who want the pope discredited and the Church destroyed.
Another example is that the freemasons planned to constantly bring visitors to flatter the pope, to make him feel that he is doing a great job. That explains the constant barrage of celebrities the poor pope has to meet continuously. I am sure he is not in control of his own schedule, and nothing makes it to his desk unless the freemasons around him allow it. And all the while he probably thinks they are prelates of good will.
Yes! Criticism might bring to the fore a fact that shows us where our prayers for a Pope should be directed. But when we steer close to condemnation of a Pontiff, Freemasons rejoice that the seeds of division are being planted. Yes, certain individuals like John the Baptist are raised up by the Lord, but I must not jump the gun. That being said, when Pope Francis stated that all religions are pathways to God, such an untruth deserved correction in my opinion.
Yes I agree that untruths should be corrected. It's the constant assault on our popes' character and intent that grieves me.
I get that it's upsetting. But we are dealing with a person who is knowledgable in all things catholic. They know the goals and standards, even if we can't easily achieve them. So ignorance is out of the question, which leaves what?
Human frailty? Remember that this infiltration by Freemasons has been ongoing for decades. Remember Peter.
Frailty how? I am not being facetious or disingenuous. I genuinely want to know. I get that this has been going on for decades, but we also have excellent theology that makes clear Catholic position. I could understand maybe the odd mistake, but both PFI and PLXIV have been on the same side of virtually every issue as the globalists.
You and I have access to the most profound writings by saints, and every recorded word that Jesus said in the Bible and to His saints. Why are we not great saints? Why do we still sin?
I don't see how this answers the question of frailty. It's clear to me that when someone is on the same side as globalists on every issue it is because they are in alignment. Which means they hold the same intentions as globalists. Unless you think they are somehow indoctrinated or possibly too weak to resist outside influence?
Yes, indoctrinated their entire priesthood, too trusting of those around them in the Vatican....and perhaps afraid.
A captured office. I feel like Bob Dylan visiting the Pope dressed as supreme chancellor Palpatine was just another humiliation ritual geared towards Catholics.
Exactly. I saw some people talking online about The Imitation of Christ. One man was in charge of a men's group at his Catholic church, and he wanted to have them all read The Imitation of Christ. The other man told him that was a poor choice of book to have a men's group read...that it was overly "pious." He further explained that seminarians for a long time were actually forbidden from reading it as part of their formation. The first man was surprised but said he'd never read it himself and just assumed it would be good. But he took the second man's word for it, and if it wasn't good for seminarians, then he wouldn't use it for his men's group. He then proceeded to ask for new recommendations. And just like that, countless men were deprived of a book that literally could have made them saints, with the grace of God. This is just one small example of what has been going on for decades and decades. The freemasons have infiltrated everything in such a way that it was a miracle for anyone to actually get their hands on good solid faithful instruction in religion and morality. Our priests trained in the 60s, 70s, and 80s were steeped in social justice and kept away from personal spiritual growth. The results speak for themselves, and our last two popes were the products of such terrible instruction and Godless peer pressure disguised as social justice warriors.
We have signs all around us. Even Peter denied Jesus when he was confronted. Thats why the account is in scripture. But our Blessed Mother told us this year as bad as things get, don’t abandon the church. The visual of Bob Dylan and the Pope is such a contrast to the religious recently being denied entrance to St.Peters Basilica. There are many Catholic Churches being closed in Detroit to make room for mosques. We are in tribulation so our best defense is prayer.
