    Bishop Strickland is just the first bird of Spring. Many , many Catholic Bishops will follow in the course of events as the true nature of the Great Evil that faces us becomes more and more apparent.

    That Satan is Enthroned and Rules Supreme in the Vatican.

    The Vatican has fallen , long since,

    As Our Lady said in Akita Japan. Diabolic Confusion.

    Bishop against Bishop , Cardinals against Cardinals.

    But I don't believe Bishop Strickland is being disobedient.

    He's a good bishop. I can only imagine how distraught the faithful are in his Texas diocese. :cry: It is all part of the persecution we've been warned about for years.

    I believe the Vatican cannot press the issue; they really don't have a case against him.

    Thank you for posting the link, so Bishop Strickland has not been asked to resign, he just said he cannot lay down the mandate given to him from Benedict XVI. Like you I don't see how the Vatican can press any issue.

    I think someone wrote Prophetically many, many years ago concerning these days , long before Pope Francis was elected.

    That a time would come when the confusion in the Church would be so great, so intense that even great saints like Padre Pio would be confused as to the right thing to do or say.

    I believe these days have arrived. This being so we need to be very kind and patient with folks who disagree with us in some matters. It is quite possible they may be right and we wrong or else genuinely confused and of good will.

    But on matters where evil and ill will are clearly involved, things are different.

    But I do think we will often be called to exercise a real patience.

    I can't imagine the agony Bishop Strickland has been going through. Praying for him at Mass this morning. I see he spends an hour and a half in front of the Blessed Sacrament each morning. Acman of deep prayer strength. It shows. Still he must often have been in real agony, poor man.

    I believe Bishop Strickland was right to refuse to retire.

    I was hoping g against hope he would do this .

    Amazed when he actually did.

    Bless the man , bless him

    I think he is being accused of financial irregularities. This is one ruse that was used on the Friars of the Immaculate. He will have to be very strong indeed now. Poor Fr Altman seems to have broken under it all. I feel such sadness for these cancelled orthodox priests. Other than praying and sacrificing we as laity can withhold our money. I contribute to my parish only.

    We can do nothing else about this tribulation. Whatever the Pope says and does, it is for the church to rule whether he has lost the papacy. With all these liberal and modernist cardinals he is creating I would say we are in for a long wait.

    The skies are darkening and the prophetic pulse is quickening. With God a day is like a thousand years. I hope I live to see an end to this confusion.

    God bless and protect Bishop Strickland. He should be a cardinal.

    They will perhaps use the same play book thd dems are using against Trump. They will manufacture accusations. It reminds me of Jesus before the Sandedrin. They brought in false witnesses. When evil people are determined to get rid of someone they press forward and truth and justice get trampled. ( like the false accusations against Cardinal Pell) I sincerely hope I am wrong.

    Bishop Strickland posted this statement on Twitter this morning...

    "Many have been prompted to speak out on my behalf. I appreciate the support but I want the focus always to be on Christ alone, not me. I’m not asking for or supporting any press conferences or demonstrations like one being held today in DC, I just want people to follow Christ."

    I wonder how Cardinal Pell died so unexpectedly?? He was just getting into opposing the evil agenda of the synod. I note ArchB Vigano lives in an unknown location.
    I pray for Bishop Strickland's protection.

    Wouldn't it be wonderful if even one, just one single Bishop spoke out in Bishop Strikelands defense?

    Oh Lord just one single solitary Bishop, just one.

    The silence is deafening,

    On the other hand the laity, like ourselves are crazy for him.

    I wonder what this all tells us about the State of our poor Church?

    One single Bishop, anywhere on the entire planet? Even one?
