       The Truth About This Crisis

       The Truth About This Crisis
       I think it is high time that we talk frankly about what is truly
       happening in the Church. It is quite probable that we are
       approaching the denouement of this horrible play, a century in
       the telling, in which the Synod on the Family, currently playing
       out in Rome, may be the opening scene of the final act.
       
       We endlessly speculate and debate over who is with Cardinal
       Kasper and who is not, who will stand up and who will be quiet,
       and where does doctrine end and pastoral praxis begin.
       Meanwhile, a “dark and false Church,” as foreseen by Blessed
       Anne Catherine Emmerich, which has grown within the Church for a
       century, continues its unhindered progress.
       
       We have many Cardinals and Bishops of the Holy Catholic Church
       who publicly put God’s law in opposition to God’s mercy! We have
       Cardinals and Bishops who say that the very words of Jesus, the
       same second person of the Trinity who suffered and died so that
       we might live, insufficiently express love!
       
       Add to this the daily expressions of indifferentism and every
       other facet of Modernism (see Pascendi Dominici Gregis ) that
       are promulgated not only without fear of reproach, but with loud
       praise.
       
       To say such things and to promote such thinking is cooperation
       with the devil, the devil that has as its end the destruction of
       the Church.  Whether these persons do this knowingly or
       unknowingly I cannot say, but I can say that it is evil.
       
       For those of you now rolling your eyes over what you might
       consider hyperbolic and overly dramatic language, I ask you to
       consider a few things. Pope Leo XIII said in his encyclical
       Satis Cognitum:
       
       The Church, founded on these principles and mindful of her
       office, has done nothing withgreater zeal and endeavour than she
       has displayed in guarding the integrity of the faith. Hence she
       regarded as rebels and expelled from the ranks of her children
       all who held beliefs on any point of doctrine different from her
       own. The Arians, the Montanists, the Novatians, the
       Quartodecimans, the Eutychians, did not certainly reject all
       Catholic doctrine: they abandoned only a tertian portion of it.
       Still who does not know that they were declared heretics and
       banished from the bosom of the Church? In like manner were
       condemned all authors of heretical tenets who followed them in
       subsequent ages. "There can be nothing more dangerous than those
       heretics who admit nearly the whole cycle of doctrine, and yet
       by one word, as with a drop of poison, infect the real and
       simple faith taught by our Lord and handed down by Apostolic
       tradition" (Auctor Tract. de Fide Orthodoxa contra Arianos).
       The practice of the Church has always been the same, as is
       shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers, who were wont to
       hold as outside Catholic communion, and alien to the Church,
       whoever would recede in the least degree from any point of
       doctrine proposed by her authoritative Magisterium.
       
       I consider it self-evident that there many within hierarchy of
       the Church currently in attendance at the synod that hold who
       hold beliefs different from that of the Church.  Their words and
       actions make this abundantly clear and undeniable even by even
       the most ardent defenders of normalcy.
       
       This work of destruction is a century in the making.  There are
       those who wish to blame Vatican II for all the evil in the
       Church, but that is naïve.  The ambiguities and novelties of
       some documents of Vatican II were placed there and exploited by
       those in this “dark and false church” prior to Vatican II.  The
       cracks in Vatican II and all that followed are merely symptoms
       of the growth “dark and false church.“
       
       Pope Pius X in Pascendi Dominici Gregis warned us of the
       Modernist enemies within the Church a century ago.
       
       That We make no delay in this matter is rendered necessary
       especially by the fact that the partisans of error are to be
       sought not only among the Church's open enemies; they lie hid, a
       thing to be deeply deplored and feared, in her very bosom and
       heart, and are the more mischievous, the less conspicuously they
       appear. We allude, Venerable Brethren, to many who belong to the
       Catholic laity, nay, and this is far more lamentable, to the
       ranks of the priesthood itself, who, feigning a love for the
       Church, lacking the firm protection of philosophy and theology,
       nay more, thoroughly imbued with the poisonous doctrines taught
       by the enemies of the Church, and lost to all sense of modesty,
       vaunt themselves as reformers of the Church; and, forming more
       boldly into line of attack, assail all that is most sacred in
       the work of Christ, not sparing even the person of the Divine
       Redeemer, whom, with sacrilegious daring, they reduce to a
       simple, mere man.
       
       This is a perfect diagnosis and description of the mercy vs.
       doctrine debate that has preceded this Synod.
       
       This cancer that has been metastasizing in the Church for a
       century and those who cooperate with it hide in plain sight to
       the best of their ability.  There is no Holy Canon, no dogma,
       and no principle at all, no matter how holy, authentic, ancient,
       and certain it might be, that remains free of censure,
       criticism, false interpretation, modification, and delimitation
       by those in this insidious “dark and false church.”  All is
       clouded by senseless questions and elaborate arguments, even the
       very words of Our Savior. (See Holzhauser).
       
       All that is necessary for those who work for its destruction to
       remain in the Church is to state that they accept the teaching
       of the Church while practically opposing it in every way.  There
       is apparently no limit to the benefit of the doubt contained in
       this well of deceit. They are rebellious and disobedient
       children who truly place themselves outside the Church, but they
       will not leave. No, for the real work of destruction is inside
       and they have spent a century climbing to the positions where
       they can complete their work.
       
       And while some well-meaning Catholics, desperate to believe all
       is well, try to mask the cracks in the façade of St. Peter’s
       with layer upon layer of ‘hermeneutic of continuity’ spackle,
       the furious work of destruction continues unabated within its
       walls.
       
       If the Church were merely an institution of man it would be a
       foregone conclusion that the gates of hell will soon prevail.
       Of course, it is not. We have that promise.  God will save His
       Church. But there will be a terrible price to pay.  Our Lady
       will not be able to restrain the flaming sword of our
       destruction.
       
       It is time that those who see the truth of what is happening to
       the Church speak out about the evil that would be done to Her.
       We must call evil, evil.  We must get on our knees and
       relentlessly beg our good God to rescue us from this “dark and
       false Church. “
       
       We must hold to the Church in the universal and timeless sense,
       we must do penance, we must fast, and we must pray incessantly,
       echoing Pope Benedict XVI, that the few years which “separate us
       from the centenary of the apparitions at Fatima hasten the
       fulfilment of the prophecy of the triumph of the Immaculate
       Heart of Mary, to the glory of the Most Holy Trinity.”
