The efficacy of your prayers

Dear Friends,

It's been quite the ride for the last month and two days. What started off as a seemingly typical bronchial infection just before Christmas developed into pericarditis (inflamed pericardium and fluid) and while I was in hospital for that, I picked up a virus that a week later developed into Influenza A. I missed many a Mass and Christmas, New Year's and all the festivities were pretty much put on the back-burner. I've felt like a toxic waste dump given the medications which I'm now addressing through some naturopathic attention.

The good news is the Influenza was knocked out by the Tamiflu, but so was I.

The better news is that the pericarditis is gone but there will be three months of medication to keep it that way. I need a few weeks to fully recover from the drugs and the beating up of my immune system before returning to the germ factory where I work.

Now, here is what I want to tell you.

When I saw the Cardiologist last week he said to me that I was quite fortunate. When he first saw me he was thinking "Where am I going to stab this one?"

He then went on to explain that there were two others there that night with an attack of pericarditis (it's more common than you think) but they did not respond to medication and had to have a long needle inserted into the pericardial sac to remove the fluid - something he "hates" to do. I can imagine. I'd hate having it done.

So, why me? Why did I respond to the medication with a reduction of 2mm and was able to go home and these other two people had to endure such a treatment?

I can only conclude that it was your prayers.

For that, I can only thank you.

And thanks to God above, FATHER, SON and HOLY GHOST.

Bergoglio visits his confessor, Scalfari

It the news is not insane enough out of Rome, we know find that once again Bergoglio has spoken with Scalfari.

More to come, no doubt.

Hey Bergoglio - this is here to piss you off! Have a nice day.

Breaking: Viganò accuses Gänswein of "isolating" Pope Benedict XVI

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/abp-vigano-denounces-benedicts-secretary-for-abusive-and-systematic-control-of-pope-emeritus


Testimony by Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò

It is time to reveal the abusive and systematic control exercised by Archbishop Georg Gänswein over the Supreme Pontiff Benedict XVI since the beginning of his Pontificate.

Gänswein habitually filtered information, arrogating to himself the right to judge how opportune or not it was to send it to the Holy Father.

I can testify that, when Pope Benedict summoned me in audience on April 4, 2011, a few days after I had sent him my first letter (that was later illegally published during Vatileaks), I said to the Pontiff: “I will not speak to you about the situation of corruption in the management of the Papal Villas, since I assume that you have already taken note of the memo on the matter, which I delivered to your secretary for you, in view of this audience.”

The Holy Father, in all simplicity and innocence, and without showing any surprise, said to me: “No, I didn’t see anything.”

I also testify to another event that shows how Monsignor Gänswein controlled information for the Holy Father and conditioned his freedom of action. On the occasion of the canonization of Marianne Cope and Kateri Tekakwitha, having requested in writing to the then-prefect of the papal household, Archbishop James M. Harvey, to be received in audience by the Pope, and having received no response, I went to the same Prefect on Tuesday, October 23, 2012, asking him why I had received no response to my request for an audience. 

I remember perfectly the circumstance, because Archbishop Harvey suggested that I attend the general audience the next day, so that I could at least greet the Holy Father personally, with the other bishops who were present. Archbishop Harvey answered me with the following words: “Gänswein said to me: ‘Archbishop Viganò is the last person who can approach Pope Benedict!’” 

He then added that, at the beginning of his pontificate, Benedict XVI, indicating Gänswein to him with his index finger, exclaimed: “Gestapo! Gestapo!”

This unscrupulous attitude was revealed from the very beginning of his pontificate, also in the determination with which Gänswein managed to distance from the pope his precious assistant and secretary, Ingrid Stampa, whom then-cardinal Ratzinger had wanted at his side for well over a decade after the death of his sister Maria Ratzinger.

Furthermore, it is known that to escape this total control exercised over his person by Gänswein, Pope Benedict often went to visit his previous special secretary, Bishop Josef Clemens, inviting Ingrid Stampa to these familial gatherings. 

I am issuing this statement following what Archbishop Gänswein asserted in recent days to the ANSA news agency, contradicting what Pope Benedict himself had written in his correspondence with Cardinal Sarah. This statement is a sensational and slanderous insinuation against the most eminent Cardinal Robert Sarah, which he swiftly denied.

Bergoglio throws a temper tantrum!

From the Facebook page of Antonio Socci:

https://www.facebook.com/197268327060719/posts/2709919482462245/


Reliable sources inside the Vatican have pieced together what happened. The book “From the Depths of Our Hearts” is clearly by Benedict XVI and Cardinal Sarah (as is indeed the letters between the two of them -  made public by Cardinal Sarah -  demonstrate unequivocally). Everything had been decided and agreed upon from the very start. The other day – when the part defending celibacy was published -  pandemonium broke out in the Vatican because Bergoglio was fuming with rage. In fact, that authoritative  pronouncement by Benedict, stops him from tearing apart ecclesiastic celibacy, as he had intended to do in the upcoming Post-Synod Exhortation. So, he personally summoned Monsignor Gaenswein, Benedict’s secretary, but also Prefect of Bergoglio’s Papal Household and, furious, ordered him to have Benedict XVI’s name removed from the cover of the book (being unable to demand the changing of the texts therein).

Bergoglio demanded a full and total disclaimer. For this reason the first filtered report spoke of sources “close to Benedict XVI” who said Benedict had not written the book with Cardinal Sarah, nor had he approved the cover (that is, his signature on the volume).

This however, was not true and Benedict XVI was unable to accept speaking falsely by implicitly accusing Cardinal Sarah of having involved him without his consent. Neither did Pope Benedict have any intention of taking back what he had written in defense of celibacy in the book. In fact Cardinal Sarah immediately made the letters exchanged between them public, which showed the book had been decided upon by both of them, and without doubt he made them public with Benedict’s permission. To re-establish the truth.   

On the other hand, Benedict also found himself needing to protect his secretary from the South American’s “vengeance”, seeing as he had received a peremptory order from Bergoglio. So this solution of compromise was adopted: in  successive book editions the author will be Cardinal Sarah “with the contribution of Benedict XVI”.  The text of the book, nevertheless, remains the same.

With this messy compromise, the Bergoglian court can say to the mass-media that “Benedict XVI removed his signature from the book” (even if it’s not true) but in actual fact the book remains just as it is, with Sarah’s signature and Benedict’s name as author of the parts agreed upon.

A very ugly story of clerical bullying, which, in the end aims at muzzling Benedict XVI.  

The fundamental question remains however: If Bergoglio – in his Exhortation -  hits out at celibacy (with the ordination of “viri probati”), he places himself de facto in direct contrast with the  doctrine of the Church, reaffirmed in recent days by Pope Benedict XVI. Thus, he becomes  responsible for a very grave rift, fraught with consequences.

Amazon Synod Report "Confidential" Letter from Hummes to the world's Bishop's leaked to LifeSiteNews

This is big. Very big.

Bergoglio intends to deliver his exhortation on the pagan synod soon. Brazilian Cardinal Hummes sent a letter to the world's cardinals and bishops with an outline of the plan and warned them to keep it secret. Look at the threat to them. Get on line bosy. Obey the corporate office apparatchiks.

How wonderful that one of them has put Christ and the truth over these filthy rats.

2020 is going to be the end of this rotten papacy and an outing of all of these sodomites, apostates, heretics and scumbags.

Are we to conclude then what many of us have believed for seven years now? That Georg Gänswein is really Pope Benedict's prison warden?

What a disgrace. What a circus. What fools are these idiot prelates. From Bergoglio on down.

They've been caught and found lacking in all things moral and ethical.

Benedict XVI wrote the essays with Cardinal Sarah, the letters prove it. 

When will the Swiss Guard do their duty and arrest Bergoglio and free Benedict from his prison?

Viganò calls out Bergoglio for his crimes against God, Mary and the Church!

Originally posted on December 23, I have reposted today because it deserves repeating given the rats that are coming after Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Sarah.

Thus says God, the Lord,

who created the heavens and stretched them out,

who spread forth the earth and what comes from it,

who gives breath to the people upon it,

and spirit to those who walk in it…

“I am the Lord, that is my name;

my glory I have given to no other,

nor my praise to graven images…

The Lord goes forth like a mighty man,

Like a man of war he stirs up his fury;

he cries out, he shouts aloud,

he shows himself mighty against his foes.

For a long time I have held my peace,

I have kept still and restrained myself;

now I will cry out like a woman in travail,

I will gasp and pant.

I will lay waste mountains and hills,

and dry up all their herbage;

I will turn the rivers into islands,

And dry up the pools…

They shall be turned back and utterly put to shame,

who trust in graven images,

who say to molten images,

“You are our gods.”

Who gave up Jacob to the spoiler, and Israel to the robbers?

Was it not the Lord, against whom we have sinned,

in whose ways they would not walk,

and whose law they would not obey?

So he poured upon him the heat of his anger

and the might of battle;

it set him on fire round about, but he did not understand;

it burned him, but he did not take it to heart.

(Isaiah 42:5-24)

MARY IMMACULATE VIRGIN MOTHER

ACIES ORDINATA, ORA PRO NOBIS

“Is there in the heart of the Virgin Mary anything other than the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ? We too want to have only one name in our hearts: that of Jesus, like the Most Blessed Virgin.”

The tragic story of this failed pontificate advances with a pressing succession of twists and turns. Not a day passes: from the most exalted throne the Supreme Pontiff proceeds to dismantle the See of Peter, using and abusing its supreme authority, not to confess but to deny; not to confirm but to mislead; not to unite but to divide; not to build but to demolish.

Material heresies, formal heresies, idolatry, superficiality of every kind: the Supreme Pontiff Bergoglio never ceases stubbornly to humiliate the highest authority of the Church, “demythologizing” the papacy — as perhaps his illustrious comrade Karl Rahner would say. His action seeks to violate the Sacred Deposit of Faith and to disfigure the Catholic Face of the Bride of Christ by word and action, through duplicity and lies, through those theatrical gestures of his that flaunt spontaneity but are meticulously conceived and planned, and through which he exalts himself in a continuous narcissistic self-celebration, while the figure of the Roman Pontiff is humiliated and the Sweet Christ on earth is obscured.

His action makes use of magisterial improvisation, of that off the cuff and fluid magisterium that is as insidious as quicksand, not only flying at high altitude at the mercy of journalists from all over the world, in those ethereal spaces that can highlight a pathological delirium of illusory omnipotence, but also at the most solemn religious ceremony that ought to incite holy trembling and reverent respect.

On the occasion of the liturgical memorial of the Virgin of Guadalupe, Pope Bergoglio once again gave vent to his evident Marian intolerance, recalling that of the Serpent in the account of the Fall, in that Proto-Gospel which prophesizes the radical enmity placed by God between the Woman and the Serpent, and the declared hostility of the latter, who until the consummation of time will seek to undermine the Woman’s heel and to triumph over her and her posterity. The Pontiff’s intolerance is a manifest aggression against the prerogatives and sublime attributes that make the Immaculate Ever-Virgin Mother of God the feminine complement to the mystery of the Incarnate Word, intimately associated with Him in the Economy of Redemption.

After having downgraded her to the “next door neighbor” or a runaway migrant, or a simple lay woman with the defects and crises of any woman marked by sin, or a disciple who obviously has nothing to teach us; after having trivialized and desacralized her, like those feminists who are gaining ground in Germany with their “Mary 2.0” movement which seeks to modernize Our Lady and make her a simulacrum in their image and likeness, Pope Bergoglio has further impugned the August Queen and Immaculate Mother of God, who “became mestiza with humanity... and made God mestizo.” With a couple of jokes, he struck at the heart of the Marian dogma and the Christological dogma connected to it.

The Marian dogmas are the seal placed on the Catholic truths of our faith, defined at the Councils of Nicaea, Ephesus and Chalcedon; they are the unbreakable bulwark against Christological heresies and against the furious unleashing of the Gates of Hell. Those who “mestizo” and profane them show that they are on the side of the Enemy. To attack Mary is to venture against Christ himself; to attack the Mother is to rise up against her Son and to rebel against the very mystery of the Most Holy Trinity. The Immaculate Theotokos, “terrible as an army with banners” (Canticle 6:10) — acies ordinanata — will do battle to save the Church and destroy the Enemy’s unfettered army that has declared war on her, and with him all the demonic pachamamas will definitively return to hell.

Pope Bergoglio no longer seems to contain his impatience with the Immaculate, nor can he conceal it under that seeming and ostentatious devotion which is always in the spotlight of the cameras, while deserts the solemn celebration of the Assumption and the recitation of the Rosary with the faithful, who filled the courtyard of St. Damascene and the upper loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica under St. John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI.

Papa Bergoglio uses the pachamama to rout the Guadalupana. The enthronement of that Amazonian idol, even at the altar of the confession in St. Peter’s Basilica, was nothing less than a declaration of war on the Lady and Patroness of all the Americas, who with her apparition to Juan Diego destroyed the demonic idols and won the indigenous peoples for Christ and the adoration of the “Most True and Only God,” through her maternal mediation. And this is not a legend!

A few weeks after the conclusion of the synodal event, which marked the investiture of pachamama in the heart of Catholicity, we learned that the conciliar disaster of the Novus Ordo Missae is undergoing further modernization, including the introduction of “Dew” in the Eucharistic Canon instead of the mention of the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Most Holy Trinity.

This is a further step in the direction of regression towards the naturalization and immanentization of Catholic worship, towards a pantheistic and idolatrous Novissimus Ordo. The “Dew,” an entity present in the “theological place” of the Amazonian tropics — as we learned from the synodal fathers — becomes the new immanent principle of fertilization of the Earth, which “transubstantiates” it into a pantheistically connected Whole to which men are assimilated and subjugated, to the glory of Pachamama. And here we are plunged back into the darkness of a new globalist and eco-tribal paganism, with its demons and perversions. From this latest liturgical upheaval, divine Revelation decays from fullness to archaism; from the hypostatic identity of the Holy Spirit we slide towards the symbolic and metaphorical evanescence proper to dew which masonic gnosis has long made its own.

But let us return for a moment to the idolatrous statues of rare ugliness, and to Pope Bergoglio’s declaration the day after their removal from the church in Traspontina and their drowning in the Tiber. Once again, the Pope’s words have the scent of a colossal lie: he made us believe that the statuettes were promptly exhumed from the filthy waters thanks to the intervention of the Carabinieri [Italian police]. One wonders why a crew from Vatican News coordinated by Tornielli, and Spadaro of Civiltà Cattolica, with reporters and cameramen from the court press, did not come to film the prowess of the divers and capture the rescue of the pachamamas. It is also unlikely that such a spectacular feat did not capture the attention of a few passers-by, equipped with a mobile phone to film and then launch the scoop on social media. We are tempted to pose the question to the person who made that statement. Certainly, this time too, he would answer us with his eloquent silence.

For more than six years now we have been poisoned by a false magisterium, a sort of extreme synthesis of all the conciliar misconceptions and post-conciliar errors that have been relentlessly propagated, without most of us noticing. Yes, because the Second Vatican Council opened not only Pandora’s Box but also Overton’s Window, and so gradually that we did not realize the upheavals that had been carried out, the real nature of the reforms and their dramatic consequences, nor did we suspect who was really at the helm of that gigantic subversive operation, which the modernist Cardinal Suenens called “the 1789 of the Catholic Church.”

Thus, over these last decades, the Mystical Body has been slowly drained of its lifeblood through unstoppable bleeding: the Sacred Deposit of Faith has gradually been squandered, dogmas denatured, worship secularized and gradually profaned, morality sabotaged, the priesthood vilified, the Eucharistic Sacrifice protestantized and transformed into a convivial Banquet...

Now the Church is lifeless, covered with metastases and devastated. The people of God are groping, illiterate and robbed of their Faith, in the darkness of chaos and division. In these last decades, the enemies of God have progressively made scorched earth of two thousand years of Tradition. With unprecedented acceleration, thanks to the subversive drive of this pontificate, supported by the powerful Jesuit apparatus, a deadly coup de grace [death blow] is being delivered to the Church.

With Pope Bergoglio — as with all modernists — it is impossible to seek clarity, since the distinctive mark of the modernist heresy is dissimulation. Masters of error and experts in the art of deception, “they strive to make what is ambiguous universally accepted, presenting it from its harmless side which will serve as a passport to introduce the toxic side that was initially kept hidden.” (Fr. Matteo Liberatore SJ). And so the lie, obstinately and obsessively repeated, ends up becoming “true” and accepted by the majority.

Also typically modernist is the tactic of affirming what you want to destroy, using vague and imprecise terms, and promoting error without ever formulating it clearly. This is exactly what Pope Bergoglio does, with his dissolving amorphism of the Mysteries of the Faith, with his doctrinal approximation through which he “mestizos” and demolishes the most sacred dogmas, as he did with the Marian dogmas of the Ever-Virgin Mother of God.

The result of this abuse is what we now have before our eyes: a Catholic Church that is no longer Catholic; a container emptied of its authentic content and filled with borrowed goods.

The advent of the Antichrist is inevitable; it is part of the epilogue of the History of Salvation. But we know that it is the prerequisite for the universal triumph of Christ and his glorious Bride. Those of us who have not let ourselves be deceived by these enemies of the Church enfeoffed in the ecclesial Body, must unite and together face off against the Evil One, who is long defeated yet still able to harm and cause the eternal perdition of multitudes of souls, but whose head the Blessed Virgin, our Leader, will definitively crush.

Now it is our turn. Without equivocation, without letting ourselves be driven out of this Church whose legitimate children we are and in which we have the sacred right to feel at home, without the hateful horde of Christ’s enemies making us feel marginalized, schismatic and excommunicated.

Now it is our turn! The triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary — Coredemptrix and Mediatrix of all graces — passes through her “little ones,” who are certainly frail and sinners but are absolutely opposed to the members enlisted in the Enemy’s army. “Little ones” consecrated without any limit whatsoever to the Immaculate, in order to be her heel, the most humiliated and despised part, the most hated by hell, but which together with Her will crush the head of the infernal Monster.

Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort asked: “But when will this triumph take place? God knows.” Our task is to be vigilant and pray as St. Catherine of Siena ardently recommended: “Oimè! That I die and cannot die. Sleep no longer in negligence; use what you can in the present time. Comfort yourselves in Christ Jesus, sweet love. Drown yourselves in the Blood of Christ crucified, place yourselves on the cross with Christ crucified, hide yourselves in the wounds of Christ crucified, bathe yourselves in the blood of Christ crucified” (Letter 16).

The Church is shrouded in the darkness of modernism, but the victory belongs to Our Lord and His Bride. We desire to continue to profess the perennial faith of the Church in the face of the roaring evil that besieges her. We desire to keep vigil with her and with Jesus, in this new Gethsemane of the end times; to pray and do penance in reparation for the many offenses caused to them.

Bergolian thugs in fake Catholic media accuse Cardinal Sarah of being a liar

Update at 06:30hrs. EST.

From Joshua McElwee, to James Martin, Massimo Faggioli to Austen Ivereigh and a so-called priest named Dan Horan - all these have come out like vultures condemning our Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI that he is incompetent and that Cardinal Sarah is a liar. I won't reprint their comments here, there are two links below that summarise them.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/critics-of-pope-benedict-furious-over-news-of-new-book

https://wdtprs.com/2020/01/lib-reactions-to-the-new-book-from-card-sarah-and-benedict-xvi-order-soon/

Yet, Cardinal Sarah has said that it is wrong to interpret this book as being opposed to Francis. Meanwhile, Father Fessio of Ignatius Press has announced that he will be publishing the "fake" book from the incompetent Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Sarah has issued a letter vehemently defending his honour against those who have called him a liar, including his correspondence with Pope Benedict XVI.

What this reveals to me is that the filthy rats listed above know that they are on the ropes. They are vicious and they have come to realise that the jig is up on them, and their filthy master, the Argentinian boil on the seat of Peter.

Pope Benedict XVI must speak. 

Someone raised a question yesterday, "Why is the Swiss Guard not staging a rescue."

Papa Ratzinger is in danger, he is a prisoner but something bigger is happening here and it may be divine.

Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Sarah lay down the law to Bergoglio!

Is it time to storm the Vatican and rescue Pope Benedict XVI?

https://www.ncregister.com/daily-news/pope-emeritus-benedict-and-cardinal-sarah-collaborate

Every once in a while God sends you a helicopter - get on it!

With the above in mind, let me tell you how I almost refused all three out of stubborn manliness and pride. This is also a lesson gents in something more profound:

"ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR WIFE!"

I had been feeling great, on vacation working around the house. On the 19th of December something hit me like a ton of bricks and given my usually well-controlled asthma, hit my lungs. Breathing was a struggle, my heart was racing, pain across my chest and shoulders, I almost thought I was having a heart attack. But wait - I don't need a doctor, I just had a treadmill stress test ECG and echocardiogram as a routine thing and at 63, and not too skinny, I got to 94% of maximum heart rate, no restrictions or hypertension and when I started my blood pressure was 120/78. I had been a runner for about 30 years of up to 30km a week. Of course, I ignored it and struggled through. It was a Thursday and the Fox was concerned over the weekend. "Go to the doctor!" Well, finally she said it again on Monday the 23rd. I said no and then lay down. Suddenly a little voice said, "Listen to your wife." It was late 7PM and we found a walk-in clinic and obtained an anti-biotic. It was just before they closed.

God sent a truck, you see. He sent it through my wife, whom I should have listened to earlier, but I eventually got in it.

On the 27th, I felt bad and called the Respirologist, the office was closed and I left a message. On the 30th, the Fox said, "Are you going to call?" Well, I hesitated, after all, I left a message. Again the Fox said, "Call!" I did and it turned out they had over 100 messages and the secretary had not yet gotten to mine. If Fox did not insist, I would not have called and gotten in and checked and things would have gone from bad to worse. I explained the situation and my Jewish doctor with a picture of St. Pio of Pietrelcina on his wall saw me right away. He did not like what he heard and sent me for an xray and had the result on his computer before I got back to the office. Cardial effusion of an unknown cause and ordered into the hospital. I was admitted until January 2 and sent home with treatment and the pericarditis is resolving itself. It turns out, whatever bug I had, latched itself on to the pericardial sac and wreaked havoc.

Last night, January 10, at about 5, I felt week and took my temperature, it was 99.5. As Fox arrived home, it was 100.6 at 5:40 and I suddenly realised, we are not waiting for the helicopter, we're getting into the truck. "Take me to the walk-in" said I. "Don't you think the hospital would be better given the situation?" said Fox. Well, guess what. The walk-in had a sign up that they were taking no more. I asked the receptionist to ask the doctor, the doctor said "No." Well, that was the Holy Spirit. Why? Because, it turns out that I am a fluid kind of guy - the heart is clearing up but now it is in the lungs but caught at the early stage so now, I have influenza and on Tamiflu and they only ascertained this after another xray and various blood tests and ultrasounds - the walk in clinic would have given me a useless anti-biotic and sent my on my way. As an aside, the doctor at the urgent care centre of the hospital said that at the sister hospital where I had been, there was an outbreak of influenza and they had no doubt that that is where I got it. In my case, this was caught early enough that Tamiflu should knock this demon back to Hell. I can already feel some relief - Laus Deo!

I was in this hospital on the 31st of December. Fifteen years to the day that my brother died in that very same hospital of pneumonia of a bug he caught there on the 28th. He had leukaemia and was susceptible to anything and everything. He had gone for a minor matter but it would become the death of him.

Is my point becoming clearer?

As I look back on all of this, there was no doubt in my mind now that I was sent a truck and then a boat and I was turning them down out of my own manly pride.

I have no doubt, none whatsoever in my mind and in my bones that God sent me that truck and that boat. Finally, he sent me a helicopter. My wife was the truck driver, was in the boat and was flying the helicopter.

Thank you Lord for the helicopter piloted by my beloved. Thank you for waking me up and hitting me hard enough to get on it. I'm glad I got on.

To you, dear readers and friends, thank you for your prayers.

And above all:

TE DEUM LAUDAMUS!

 

I.  Praise to the Trinity

We praise thee, O God: we acknowledge Thee to be the Lord.

All the earth doth worship Thee, the Father everlasting.

To Thee all Angels cry aloud: the Heavens and all the powers therein.

To Thee Cherubim and Seraphim continually do cry, Holy, Holy, Holy: Lord God of Sabaoth;

Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty of Thy Glory.

The glorious company of the Apostles praise Thee.

The godly fellowship of the Prophets praise Thee.

The noble army of Martyrs praise Thee.

The holy Church throughout all the world doth acknowledge Thee;

The Father of an infinite Majesty;

Thine honourable, true, and only Son;

Also the Holy Ghost: the Comforter.

 

II.  Praise of Christ

Thou art the King of Glory, O Christ.

Thou art the everlasting  Son of the Father.

When Thou tookest upon Thee to deliver man: Thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb.

When Thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, Thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers.

Thou sittest at the right hand of God in the glory of the Father.

We believe that Thou shalt come to be our Judge.

We therefore pray Thee, help Thy servants whom Thou hast redeemed with Thy precious blood.

Make them to be numbered with Thy Saints in glory everlasting.

 

III.  Prayers

O Lord, save Thy people: and bless Thine heritage.

Govern them and lift them up for ever.

Day by day we magnify Thee; and we worship Thy Name, ever world without end.

Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin.

O Lord, have mercy upon us.

O Lord, let Thy mercy lighten upon us: as our trust is in Thee.

O Lord, in Thee have I trusted: let me never be confounded.

The Octave of the Epiphany - stolen from you and me, but we can take it back!

We are now at the second day within the Octave of the Epiphany. Never heard of it, eh? Well, if you follow the nervous disorder, then you're not alone. For even the 1962 does not have it. Those monsters were already there and for whatever reason. Pope Pius XII listened to that demon Bugnini and not only gutted the Holy Week but did in the Octave of the Epiphany as well. It is not only the Novus Ordo that needs to be thrown into the dustbin of history but eventually the 1962. It is not that some simplifications were not necessary but all of it went to far. There will come a time to go back to 1949 and start over!

The irony is that you can still find ghosts of it in the 1962 and the 1970 disaster.

So why not just bring it back/

But you can still honour it.

Oh, and did you know that the Church has always taught that the Epiphany, the Baptism of the Lord and the Wedding Feast at Cana all occurred on the same day as the Lord's great Manifestations?

No, you didn't - because they robbed you of that, too!

Red pill friends. Now!

Tribus miraculis ornatum, diem sanctum colimus:
Hodie stella Magos duxit ad praesepium:
Hodie vinum ex aqua factum est ad nuptias:
Hodie in Jordane a Joanne Christus baptizari voluit,
ut salvaret nos, Alleluia.

We observe this holy day, ornamented with three miracles:

Today a star led the Magi to the manger;

Today wine was made from water at the wedding;

Today in the Jordan Christ desired to be baptised by John,

The slap heard around the world

You've seen the pictures by now. I could not comment on it prior due to my malady and there is not much to say now but this.

Bergoglio hit a woman, twice and he stormed off as the petulant monster that he has often displayed. There is no excuse. She waited for hours to see him, to plead about something - China? A personal situation? What did Jesus do when the woman touched the hem of his garment? 

A commentator, whom I thank dearly, has just replied and in justice, I print it here: 

"Spanish speaker here and I apologize for my broken English. I do not like the man who now usurps the chair of Peter and I think there is no excuse for slapping a woman, but I clearly hear him saying to her: "Hey, dame la mano". That's it. No more. Which translates: "Hey, let go of my hand" or "give me my hand". Nothing added. I am surprised that people say he called her "bruja" or "puta" or anything else. I tried to hear several times and I never hear something similar. I mention this out of justice."

Yes, Bergoglio is human, but it is no excuse. He did the same thing in Mexico. Remember this? 

Don't give me the garbage that he is human. This is a result of his egoism, his desire to be god, to be seen as so humble. Well, I guess the smell of that little sheep wasn't good enough for the man who grovels and kisses the feet of tribal leaders and loves to be seen with the global elite.

The man is a putrid disgrace. The woman was desperate, clearly. Where was his mercy? Oh, he's apologised? Means nothing. Let him seek her out and apologise to her. He hit her, twice.

The man is a creep and a disgusting boor on top of everything else.

Prayers please - update

Thank you for your prayers and kind wishes. Pericarditis is nothing to ever ignore friends. It can happen without warning and unless it is from one of the more obvious causes, heart attack or surgery and such things, it can be from viral or bacterial chest infection that migrates to the pericardial sack as in my case. It's not nice and don't delay ever being treated.

It's not gone but under control enough that I can be home with medication because as nice as the nurses and staff were, who the heck wants to be in the hospital.

Thank you all.



Friends,

On this evening of the slap heard around the world, may I request prayers as I will be in hospital for treatment and observation for 48 hours. It seems that the wretched bug that deep-sixed my singing at Midnight Mass and St Stephen’s has invaded the area around my heart causing fluid and pressure.

The option of not attending to this does not exist because it would mean sticking me with a needle and tube (think here of the dropsy scene from Downton Abbey) or worse - like no room for heart to beat and, well, I am into singing Requiems for others, not having it done for me, not for decades yet, please God. But worry not, improvement is occurring.

I will be out of commission tomorrow as well and blogging will be pretty light if any.

And don’t slap any women!

Here is to Anno Domini 2020!

Te Deum Laudamus.

The "spastic" papacy of Bergoglio does not even spare the Most Blessed Mother

Mary of Nazareth, Our Lady, Our Blessed Mother was preserved by the future sacrificed of her Son from original sin so that he could dwell in her for nine months as He became the Flesh to save all of us and the world. It is so simple, no? Therefore, by this, Blessed Mary ever-virgin participated in every way in our salvation, even in her own sorrows which Simeon told her, "and as sword will pierce your heart." It is in this that logic simply tells that her part by her fiat, her so be it, to the Angel Gabriel and his message from God meant that she participated in every way. She was a "co" a partner and active participant in our redemption - she was Co-Redemptrix. One does not need to be a theologian to get this and it is to the loss of the Protestants that they continue to deny it.

In today's Matins we read this sermon by St. Leo, Pope:

In any day of the year, dearly beloved, whenever we make our meditations, we are mindful of the birth from a Virgin Mother of our Lord and Saviour. Whenever our souls are uplifted in the worship of our Maker, whether we sigh in supplication, rejoice in praise, or offer sacrifice, there is nothing which we more frequently or more confidently set our minds upon than the fact that God, the Son of God, begotten of the co-eternal Father, was also born by a human birth. But on this day his Nativity, which is to be adored both in heaven and on earth, is brought before us as at no other time. For today it is as though a new and radiant light is shining forth in the heavens, in such wise that the brightness of this wondrous mystery is perceived even by our senses. And not only do we call to mind what the Angel Gabriel said to the awe-stricken Mary, but in some sort we seem even to be present at that colloquy when she conceived of the Holy Ghost. And we marvel both at the promise made to her, and at her faith in that promise.

In the Collect after the Alma Redemptoris at the end of Lauds, we read this:

O God, who, by the fruitful virginity of blessed Mary, hast bestowed upon mankind the reward of eternal salvation: grant, we beseech thee, that we may experience her intercession, through whom we have been made worthy to receive the author of life, Our Lord Jesus Christ thy son. Amen.

Nota bene: "by the fruitful virginity of blessed Mary, hast bestowed upon mankind the reward of eternal salvation." Co-Redemptrix!

But not with Bergoglio.

Sandro Magister features an article by Pietro De Marco of the papal homily. The author, a former professor of the sociology of religion at the University of Florence and at the Theological Faculty of Central Italy, a philosopher and historian by training, has for years been known to and appreciated by the readers of Settimo Cielo.

Statement of Hermits of Westray on being "excommunicated"

If you follow Deacon Nick Donnelly then you've no doubt heard of the tragic Christmas Eve "excommunication" of the Hermits of Westray brought to you by the Bergoglian Church of Mercy.

Here is their response.

They can excommunicate all of us. These filthy heretics, effeminates, apostates and Freemasons have no authority over the faithful. They will soon all fall. There time is very, very short.

What is this lovely fragrance?
