St. Padre Pio said it would be easier to live without the sun then without the Mass. But when and if this happens, we will have God in our hearts and we can adore Him within - even for those who do not adore Him and make spiritual Communions united to the Heart of Mother Mary. God's Will be done!
If you look at the propehcies of Our Lady of Garabandal, there is one of them I never understood in the proper sense until fairly recently. Our Lady of Garabandal said that all over the world , from all the Tabernacles in the CHurches the Sacred Hosts would fly and the Churches would all remain empty of the Real Presence of God. I always thought this would mean a miraculour flight. Now I realise it means that due to the fact that the mass would no longer be celebrated there would be no hosts. http://www.garabandal.org/News/Message_7.shtml Our Lady's Message of June 18, 1965 Since my Message of October 18, 1961 has not been complied with and has not been made much known to the world, I will tell you that this is the last one. Before the chalice was filling now it is overflowing. MANY CARDINALS, MANY BISHOPS, AND MANY PRIESTS ARE ON THE PATH OF PERDITION AND THEY TAKE MANY SOULS WITH THEM. TO THE EUCHARIST, THERE IS GIVEN LESS AND LESS IMPORTANCE. We should avoid the Wrath of God on us by our good efforts. If you ask pardon with your sincere soul God will pardon you. It is I, Your Mother, who through the intercession of St. Michael, wish to say that you amend, that you are already in the last warnings and that I love you much and do not want your condemnation. Ask us sincerely and we will give to you. You should sacrifice more. Think of the Passion of Jesus. Conchita Gonzales
Thank you Lynn. That is very comforting—and very true. Just thinking—The Divine Mercy chaplet is not the Mass but it offers the Holy Sacrifice.
That is a good way of looking at it. Actually this is foretold in the Book of the Apocalypse , wherein the Woman with Child flees into hiding from the Dragon.
My favorite is Tower of David, then Ark of the covenant but it should probably be Health of the sick because although I have never prayed to ask her prayers about my illness I once in prayer had an overwhelming thought I would be healed one day by virtue of Her prayers. I love them all, my favorite part of the day is evening prayers with my girls.
I don’t know about you all but my head is spinning. So much so it’s liable to leave my shoulders at any time.
I'm tempted to buy that book. I'm wondering who is the "Gagnon" who told Murr that Sebastiano Baggio was the last person to see Pope John Paul 1 alive. Could it be the same Cardinal Gagnon who told the parents in "The Sins of the Fathers" case that the US Church was in schism?
Unlike others, my fidelity is to the Church and its unchanging truths handed on from Christ through his apostles and church councils. One only has to do a simple search to see the Church has had bad popes. The one thing that cannot change is doctrine/dogma. Furthermore, anyone who has the slightest bit of church teaching in their head, can and should know that Pope Francis has did, said and written some extremely bizarre messages that fly in the face of what has been declared from past popes and church teachings. Knowing his past prior to becoming pope will tell one much more in this regard. Each will have to answer for their thinking on the pope, but one thing I will continue to do is pray for him and all confused Catholics. Satan is unchained and do not assume any of us are exempt from his confusion. Pray, pray, pray.
Yes David. Exactly. That is how I felt last night and that is why I spent time at the Adoration chapel today. Now I am more peaceful. I can pray and also “speak the truth in love” and wait on the Lord. In this moment of grace. For now.
Yes Fatima! Truly. This is the time to “work out our salvation in fear and trembling” as St Paul tells us.
You are correct, SgCatholic. Particularly the fact that Fr. Malachi Martin was speaking the truth. He has been vindicated by recent events. The consecration of the country Russia is still to be done. But we must remember that in the end, our Mother wins!!! Our Victorious Mother has won.
↑ From above: "This point will be reached when they start to change the Liturgy to such a point that the mass no longer is the mass but an abomination. I am convinced that this is the End Point in all their agenda. One they have acheived this they can do what they like. This , I am oninvinced, will come sooner than I ever dreamed possible. But the rot is spreading so very, very quickly; it is quite breathtaking." Our Lady told Fr. Gobbi on Dec. 31, 1992: "By accepting the Protestant doctrine, people will hold that the Mass is not a sacrifice, but only a sacred meal, that is to say, a remembrance of that which Jesus did at His Last Supper. And thus, the celebration of Holy Mass will be suppressed. In this abolition of the daily Sacrifice consists the horrible sacrilege accomplished by the Antichrist, which will last about three and a half years..." When we lose the Holy Sacrifice we lose everything. It will be endless Good Friday when all the tabernacles lie empty. No more Divine reparation. Jesus gone. Gone from us and from the world. If Satan can do this then may God save us and all humanity. We cannot imagine the horror of it. No more Holy Sacrifice. I cannot bear it. AED, Thursday at 1:28 PMReport #17LikeReply My understanding is, while He will no longer be in Tabernacles, true Mass will be in secret. Catacombs will take on a new appearance, could be in homes with curtains closed. will we not still have true Priests able to correctly consecrate?
If you recall, from the memoirs of the Anti-Apostle 1025, this was indeed the communist plan when they infiltrated the Church. The Novus Ordo mass was planned with the help of 6 Protestants at Vatican II. Are we there yet, do you think? http://www.catholicapologetics.info/modernproblems/freemasonry/plan.htm "The Anti-Apostle makes clear the basis of his plan to effect the auto-destruction of the Church. His seminary career started before well before Vatican II, so the elements of his plan now bear chilling fulfillment in our time. Here are some extensive excerpts from the Communist/Liberalist/Modernist plan for the auto-destruction of the Catholic Church, specifically as they relate to the destruction of the Mass and Sacraments, together with our commentary on how they have come true in less than fifty years: THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "The professor also taught me a reasonable way to say Mass, since in six years I would be obliged to say it. While waiting for a profound modification of the whole ceremony [how did he know about this in 1940?], he never pronounced the words of the Consecration. But so as not to be suspected, he pronounced words almost similar, at least according to the ending of the words. He advised me to do the same. All that made this ceremony look like a sacrifice should, little by little, he suppressed. The whole ceremony should represent only a common meal, as among Protestants." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. The "profound modification of the whole ceremony," as predicted, became the Novus Ordo service, which defines itself as a "common meal," not a Sacrifice." THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "He even assured me that it should never have been otherwise. He also worked at the elaboration of a new Ordinary of the Mass and advised me also to do the same, because it appeared to him to be altogether desirable to present to people a large number of diversified Masses. There must be some, very short, for families and small groups, some longer ones, for Feast Days, although, according to him, the real feast for the working classes is a walk in Nature. He thought that he could easily arrive at a point of considering Sunday as a day consecrated to Nature." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. There are many variations of the New Order service. One traditional apostolic Canon became three man-made "eucharistic prayers," which have now proliferated well beyond that number. There are so many options for the form of the New Order service that most Novus Ordo churches don't use an official missal, but a pastiche of xeroxed pages contained in a three-ring binder at the altar, so that the service can be changed on a moment's notice, or be improvised "as the spirit moves." Moreover, Nature has become the modern-day Earth Goddess, Gaia, the green pagan goddess of the environmental movement, in which it is more morally reprehensible to kill a dog than to murder a child. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "Afterwards come the Seven Sacraments, which are all to be revised." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. Not a single one of the seven Sacraments has been left untouched in the Novus Ordo. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "As for the Sacrament called Penance, it would be replaced by a community ceremony, which will only be an examination of conscience directed by a well-trained priest, all of which would be followed by a general absolution, as in some Protestant Churches. God will not be mentioned in this ceremony, which will not be called a Sacrament anymore (because this word must also disappear from the vocabulary)." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. Already this pseudo-sacrament has replaced the Sacrament of Penance in most churches. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "As for the Sacrament of Extreme Unction, we will have to find another word for it.... We will have to see to it that the notion of eternal life, judgment, Heaven, Purgatory, or Hell be replaced by the sole desire to be cured..... I would willingly choose the expression "Sacrament of the sick." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. Just as the Anti-Apostle planned in 1940, the Sacrament of Extreme Unction, so powerful to reconcile to eternity the soul in its last hour, has been obliterated and in its place a mere "blessing of the sick" substituted with the very name that the Anti-Apostle suggested, the "sacrament of the sick." I have been called in at the last minute to attend a soul when it realizes that Church of the New Order has not the power to absolve it or to prepare it for eternity. Believe me, the vapid Church of the New Order looks quite different to a soul when faced with the seriousness of eternity!
(Cont'd) (Please ignore the wrong numbering, I can't seem to fix it) THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "It is of prime necessity completely to reform the words of the Mass, and it will be well even to suppress the word itself and to replace it by "The Lord's Supper" or by "Eucharist" (for example). The Renovation of the Mass must minimize the importance of what they call "Consecration" and must give to the Communion a much more trivial appearance." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. You might call it a "mass," but that is not what they call it. Just as the Anti-Apostle planned in 1940, the terms Lord's Supper or Eucharist have become much more common. The "consecration" of the Novus Ordo service has in fact been minimized: not even the Catholic and Apostolic words, confirmed as dogma by the Council of Trent, have been left untampered. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "We will suggest the possibility of abandoning the high altar and of replacing it by a small table, completely bare, where the priest will stand facing the people." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. First the "turned-around" T.V. table was optional; then it was recommended. Now, according to the 2000 third edition of the Novus Ordo missal, it is required. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "Each text forming the Ordinary of the Mass will be carefully compared with the texts used by the Anglicans and Lutherans, in order to promote a single text of varying texts apt to be accepted by these three religions." It is well known that the Masonic Grand Architect of the Novus Ordo service used six Protestants to help him write the new service, with the full approval of Paul VI, who gladly posed for an historic photograph with the six, which was published by the Vatican Press Office. The six publicly attested to the fact that the Novus Ordo service had been so changed in comparison to the Traditional Latin Mass that they had no problem whatsoever using it as their own Protestant worship service from then on. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "To weaken further the notion of 'Real Presence' of Christ, all decorum will have to be set aside. No more costly embroidered vestments, no more sacred music, especially no more Gregorian chant, but a music in jazz style." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. In fact, the traditional vestments of the Church have been replaced by an all-purpose slip-over alb. What passes for "music" in the Novus Ordo service is a cacophony of electronic pianos, drums, and rock-based rhythms and tunes. The pipe organ, the Church's only authentic instruments, has been relegated to oblivion -- or sold to nearby Protestant churches. The Church whose music was once the envy of the world and all its cultures now panders the "junk culture" to the world, with the pope personally attending rock concerts and expressing his preference for them over anything religious. THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "Moreover, the faithful will have to break themselves of the habit of kneeling, and this will be absolutely forbidden when receiving Communion." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. This plank from the 1940 plan has been fulfilled before our very eyes! Just this month the U.S. bishops have banned kneeling for "communion" at Novus Ordo services. Many dioceses already prevent kneeling during the most sacred part of the service, the Canon. And because many Novus Ordinarians still insist on kneeling, many churches have removed the kneelers! THE MODERNIST PLAN OF 1940. "In order to destroy all sacredness in the worship, the priest will be invited to say the whole Mass in the vernacular." MISSION ACCOMPLISHED BY THE VATICAN II NEW ORDER. Although the use of vernacular in the Mass was condemned with the censure of excommunication by the dogmatic Council of Trent, and even though Vatican II confirmed this dogma, the reality of the Church of the Novus Ordo is quite different. A virtual babble (Babel) of vulgar tongues has intruded into what is supposed to be the Sacred Liturgy. It is interesting that the word vernacular comes from the Latin word for slave, vernaculus, and indeed the Church of the New Order has enslaved its congregations to a phony "mass" and a a phony "communion," which, far from being able to impart any graces, has admitted, in the words of Pope Paul VI, "Satan around the altar."
Isn't THIS rather telling?! I googled Bella Dodd. I heard of her on this forum. Explains an awful LOT. EWTN Catholic Q&A Communists and condemned theologians Question from Fabiana Mouawad on 03-25-2002: Dear Dr. Carroll, Can you please comment on the following information I found concerning 1) the Communist infiltration of the Catholic Church and 2) the influence at Vatican II of previously condemned theologians (for instance, Henri de Lubac - who if anyone was the theological architect of the council) Bella V. Dodd spent a good deal of her prime adult years working for the Communist Party in America. During the 1930's and 1940's she worked diligently for the Communist cause in America while she taught school, participated in Unions, practiced law and involved herself in politics in order to bring socialism upon the country. In the early 1950's she became disillusioned by the lie of Communism, broke with the party, and was instructed in the Catholic Faith by none other than Bishop Fulton J. Sheen. She was baptized by Bishop Sheen in April of 1952. At that time she gave lectures to expose the satanic scourge and testified that: - "In the 1930's, we put eleven hundred men into the priesthood in order to destroy the Church from within." - "Right now they are in the highest places, and they are working to bring about change in order that the Catholic Church will no longer be effective against Communism." Bella Dodd also said that the changes would be so drastic that, "you will not recognize the Catholic Church." In the 1950’s Rome condemned a large number of theologians. In his encyclical, Humani Generis, Pope Pius XII condemned the theory of Henri de Lubac, a Jesuit priest, that there is no difference between nature and grace, between the natural and supernatural levels. This condemnation required all Jesuits to stop teaching this theory or vacate their teaching positions. Two years later a Dominican, Yves Congar, was condemned for his book on true and false reform in the Church and was exiled to Jerusalem. At the same time, a Jesuit priest in the US, John Courtney Murray, began teaching a new theory about the relations between Church and State and was condemned by Rome. Just prior to Vatican II another Jesuit, Karl Rahner, was forced to submit all his writings to the Holy Office on suspicion of Modernism. A Benedictine, Dom Beaudoin, was made to do the same. On the eve of Vatican II, a meeting of the central commission of the Council prepared a list of the theologians who would assist the bishops during the Council. At this meeting, Archbishop Lefebvre, one of the members of the commission, spoke up, "There is something I do not understand. We have here a list of the proposed experts. We have a rule which prohibits us to put on the list any theologian who has been condemned by the Church. On one of the proposed lists there are three condemned theologians." After the meeting, Cardinal Ottaviani took the Archbishop by the arm and said, "It’s the Boss who wants it," that is to say, Pope John XXIII. He made the rule that condemned theologians not be on the list and also ordered that they be on the list! Answer by Dr. Warren Carroll on 03-27-2002: Whatever the Communist machinations, we know that Communism, a work of the Devil, can never take control of the Church, because Christ Himself has promised us that the gates of Hell shall never prevail against it. - Dr. Carroll COPYRIGHT 2002 www.ewtn.com
Alright, I'm sending this to my Dad!! He has started commenting lately that changes have left us resembling Protestant churches. The man is a young 85.
