    Father Celatus, if that is the Father's real name, possibly identifies Francis as candidate for St John's ultimate transgressor, but protestant eschatology identifies the Catholic Church, i.e. the Papacy, itself, as holding that distinction. It's hard to know for sure who the antichrist is, but there are indicators. That Francis does not blush at sin says something, something positively damning.

      One thing is for certain.

      The anti-Christ will NOT claim to be the Pope.

      He'll claim to be Christ.

      Francis at best likes to draw false parallels between himself and Christ, but has not gone anywhere as far and I doubt he will.

      So the Prottys are and will continue to be wrong.

      That said, Francis isn't helping change their minds and the sin within the Church only serves in the Prot's hardness against her. But as some honest evangelicals themselves admit, they've got their own problems no different than the Catholics.

    Sadly, I gave up listening to a once loved CRS because over time it became obvious that they were not going to address the abuses in the Catholic Church especially those committed by the pope and his minions. I still listen to late night rebroadcasts of old Fulton Sheen recordings, though.

    Father is quite right to identify Vatican II with the apostasy described by St Paul. We know from Sister Lucy and the late Father Gruner that we are living through the Apocalypse, specifically chapters VIII to XIII. I would offer a slight modification to Fathers theory however. Rather than Francis potentially being THE Antichrist, is it not more probable that he is the False Prophet that prepares the way for Antichrist? After all the Fathers of the Church teach that he will be an apostate bishop that emerges from within the Church, and is not modernism eating away at the Church from the inside? Chapter XIII deals with this specifically, and Frere Michel in his "Whole Truth About Fatima" volume 3, goes into great detail to describe how this False Prophet will deceive many, with modernism doing the preparation for this event.

    It seems we are waiting for that smoking gun to establish clearly what many of us suspect - that Francis has cast himself off the faith and is leading many to hell. Perhaps this schism which he has so openly spoke of will be the proof and wake up call to many Catholics that wish to save their soul.

    I also suspect Benedict XVI has some remaining part to play - I would not be surprised if he is the one that Pope St Pius X saw fleeing the Vatican over the bodies of dead priests. He is over 90 now and Francis over 80. There cannot be much time left before we see the final chapters of Fatima play out. Our Lady of Fatima ora pro nobis!

      I don't believe Francis is in any way shape or form the Antichrist because for one thing he is not of Jewish descent and for another he is not nearly charismatic enough, nor smart enough, to fool the whole world.
      The Antichrist , when he comes will indeed fool everyone, even the elect, if those days were not shortened.
      Francis tenure (I won't dishonor the office by calling his rule a papacy) is a miserable trial balloon for the big event sometime in the future. But not yet.

      Well said! I too do not hold to him as the Antichrist, or even the False Prophet for that matter. Along the eschatological timeline, we are not at that point yet imho. There are many in the world today, including some mystics, who believe that the AC is already in the world. I must respectfully disagree.

      I believe that the overwhelming evidence suggests otherwise by the saints, blesseds, venerables, popes, doctors, fathers, etc. that while we are in dire times, we are approaching the 'end of an era' not the end of the world. In terms of a blueprint, there would be an upcoming Minor Chastisement, followed by the Era of Peace (spoken about by Our Lady at La Salette and Fatima), and then the Major Chastisement of the Antichrist, which is followed shortly thereafter by the General Judgment when Christ judges the world. As to what will take place in the church/world, only God knows the specifics, but we do have many, many pieces to the puzzle from not only the approved Marian apparitions but also from such holy men and women like Bl. Anna Maria Taigi, Bl. Isabel Canori-Mora, Ven. Bartholomew Holzauser, Marie Jahenny, Bl. Elena Aiello, Bl. Anne Catherine Emmerich, Ven. Mary of Agreda, Bl. Mary of Jesus Crucified, St. John Bosco, St. John Vianney, St. Louis de Montfort, etc., etc., etc.

      The Minor Chastisement as described by all of these saints is specifically devoid of The Antichrist in this time. There are numerous prophecies as it relates to all things restored under the Angelic Shepherd and Great Monarch who come after much destruction and then only after the world has been taken back for Christ, does AC come.

      Ven. Holzauser's prophecies are of significant interest as they describe clearly the 7 Ages of the Church-the 5th Age which will probably culminate with horrendous chastisements (we are nearing the end of this age now), the 6th Age where the Holy Pope and Great Monarch re-take the world over for Christ, and then finally the 7th Age when the Antichrist comes and is defeated in the end by St. Michael the Archangel as the learned fathers/doctors of the Church taught (e.g. Aquinas, etc.), precipitating the General Judgment which follows AC's reign of terror.

      May our Lady protect us!

      I agree with everything you have just said TradWarrior. In fact i could not have said it better. Often times i see people saying Christ is about to come, but we have the bible, that even He ,himself say..." no one knows the time, not even I" but only the father in Heaven. So you are correct in all that you have said..Thank you posting that. God Bless You.

      Thank you for the kind words Monica. It is a shame because there is SO much on Catholic eschatology that virtually most people are not aware of, including almost all clergymen today. This area of theology should be talked about FAR more today especially with this period in human history that we are living in, unparalleled with previous times in so many different ways. As I mentioned, the general blueprint gives us a plethora of information here from the centuries that unfortunately is not known to most, but it is very detailed. In terms of the specifics of dates/times, you said it best, "Only the Father knows."

    It could well be that Francis is indeed an intermediary step to the FP-Antichrist stage of salvation history. It seems that he will bring an end to the 5th age of the Church which ends with the restoration beginning in the 6th.

    Wonder if he was listening to Relevant Radio. When I was commuting I would tune in, but their resistance to questioning ANYTHING regarding Francis made me crazy.

    • Avatar

      I wondered the same thing. They usually have good content on that radio station, but once and a while something is said that makes one question their position with all that is going on. It seems that they have some traditional minded hosts, but most are sympathetic to Francis and are very careful not to speak out against him and Vatican II. One day I drove home and tuned in to the evening rosary, which was the luminous mysteries. I turned off the radio and recited the proper mysteries for the day instead.

    • Avatar

      John Paul got the appallingly foolish idea to wreck the structure of the Rosary from a Maltese priest by the name of George Preca, who in the 1960s proposed almost the exact same mysteries as the "luminous" set.
      We pray at the end of the Rosary "O God, Whose only begotten Son, by His Life, Death and Resurrection, has purchased for us the rewards of eternal salvation..."
      The Joyful mysteries correspond to Christ's Life
      The Sorrowful mysteries correspond to Christ's Death
      The Glorious mysteries correspond to Christ's Resurrection.
      What do the Luminous mysteries correspond to???? Nothing. They are there merely to disrupt the meditation on the Incarnation Passion and Resurrection of Christ.
      The Most Holy Virgin knew what She was doing when She gave St Dominic 15 decades, not 20.

      The Luminous mysteries were placed there to make a change--anything for change. Keep the people confused, off-balance, and wondering what change will come NEXT? Why did JP II think he had the right to tinker with the BVM's Rosary? I have NEVER said the Luminous mysteries (a.k.a. Illuminati mysteries).

  • Avatar

    I also wondered about the LIFE,DEATH and RESURRECTION and how to put that in the Holy Rosary...You can't. Wouldn't Our Lady have said it to St Dominic if that were th case. I have never been able to say the luminous Mysteries, as when i have tried, i always forget the words to it. Si now i simply do not bother.

    This is just one of many novelties that we have seen in the last half century since VII concluded. So much of what we see in the last 50 years is utterly foreign to the Catholic Church from 33-1962AD. To your point, Pope St. Pius V in "Consueverunt Romani Pontifices" codified the Most Holy Rosary in its form of 150 Hail Mary's with 50 Hail Mary's in each of the 3 Mysteries of Joyful, Sorrowful, and Glorious.

    The New Catechism of the Catholic Church is not without several issues itself. The Penny Catechism, Baltimore Catechism, St. Pius V Catechism, and St. Pius X catechism are FAR better than the CCC and doesn't use the modernist/anthropomorphism-type language that the new CCC and postconciliar documents all use. For example, CCC 121- "the old covenant was never revoked". HERESY!!! Plain and simple. CCC 846-847 on 'No Salvation Outside the Catholic Church'. No footnotes whatsoever of Innocent III (4th Lateran Council), Boniface VIII 'Unam Sanctum' in 1302, or Eugene IV 'Cantate Domino' (Council of Florence) that it is infallible that there is NO salvation outside the Catholic Church. Those are the first 3 documents that any theologian prior to 1962 would footnote on that topic in a catechism! Not to mention so much of what Pius IX said in "Quanto Conficiamur Moerore", "Singulari Quadem", "Quanta Cura"/The Syllabus of Errors", Leo XIII's "Satis Cognitum", etc., etc., etc. Pius IX is briefly cited in the CCC with 'Quanta Cura', but it should have been extensively cited in numerous other parts, but simply is not.

    There is not a single citation either by St. Pius V or St. Pius X in the CCC, 2 of the greatest popes ever, and the only 2 to be canonized in roughly 400 years, prior to this "Let's canonize all the V2 popes now really quickly-thereby canonizing the council itself-which is blantantly ridiculous (JPI will be canonized simply because he smiled a lot). How those 2 popes (with their extremely extensive theological writings) are not quoted and no cardinal/bishop even thought of not including them in 6 years of putting the CCC together is unfathomable! Further problems are the fact that there is no mention of the Rosary anywhere in the Vatican II documents, not even Lumen Gentium, which should have been a no-brainer to include it in. Some council fathers tried, but it was voted down. St. Pius V wrote 'Quo Primum' in 1570, codifying the Latin Roman Missal (the year after codifying the Rosary). He made it abundantly clear that all 7 rites of the church were to be held 'in perpetuity' (following Innocent III, Eugene IV, Trent, etc.) that NO future pope could create a new mass or change any of the rites of the sacraments (Paul VI changed all 7!).

    The construction of the Novus Ordo Missae at the expense of the suppression of the Tridentine Mass by the modernists, was only one such thing they sought. They also tried to change the rosary and completely gut much of the way it had been prayed for roughly 800 years as given to St. Dominic, but were not as successful as they were with concocting a new liturgy.

      Excellent post! I have to read all the documents you cited (except the recent CCC! I prefer the Trent catechism.

  • Avatar

    My understanding about the 150 Hail Mary's is to do with the 150 psalms isn't it. Makes sense to me. Or am i wrong about the psalms?. However i cannot say the Luminous Mysteries, as it just doesn't seem to fit somehow. Yes i was right there are 150 psalms, so 150 hail Mary's. I just checked.

  • Avatar

    You make a very insightful observation on the New Catechism. The CCC is an opus of Modernist dreck and has at its root the false religion of Human Dignity. Remember who final editor was, the heretic +Schonborn..
    Back in the 90s we all thought he was one of the good guys. But in reality he hates, and hated then, the Traditional Faith. Hence no citation from the holy Popes you mention.
    Instead we have a list of sins listed in the CCC which are an offense against Human Dignity, rather than an offense against God e.g. prostitution, slavery and the like.
    Still worse, Human Dignity gets promoted above the duties of man to God. So the followers of the pedo monster Mohamed are said to worship the same God as us, and anyway people, as a matter of human dignity have a right to worship whichever false god they choose. So says the new religion of Human Dignity.
    Oh and the death penalty might be an affirmation both of God's justice and mercy but it is against Human Dignity, see, so out it goes.
    The new Catechism teaches a damnable false religion called Human Dignity, and to hell with the duties of man to his Creator.

    Pope Francis has asked all Catholics to pray the Rosary in this month of October and the St Michael the Archangel prayer.

    • Avatar

      Francis doesn't believe in the Holy Rosary. If he had his way he would introduce 5 new mysteries:
      1. The Virgin shakes her fist at God when she discovers she has been tricked
      2. The Virgin chastises the Child Jesus for His sinful escapade in the Temple
      3. Christ descends into Hell only to discover nobody is there.
      4. Christ washes the feet of 12 filthy religion-of-peace migrants and then gives them Holy Communion.
      5. Christ establishes Judas Iscariot as the first Pope.

    Thanks for the list. Just on the sin of blasphemy alone Bergoglio should be either stone to death or burned to death. No way can he be only stripped of his office. No one should be able to get away of blaspheming Christ and His Holy Mother.

    • Avatar

      But Daniel, how can he be stoned or burned to death? He wants the entire planet to rid itself of the death penalty and nuclear weapons! There is no place in His Mercy Church for justice anymore, especially via the death penalty. The fact that he is opposed by 2,000 years of Church Tradition doesn't matter to him. This of course includes: Christ, Scripture, The Early Church Fathers, The Medievals, and various popes. Among Peter's successors who strongly spoke out in favor of capital punishment includes the following: Innocent I, Innocent III, Paul III, Julius III, Pius IV, Pope St. Pius V (who personally oversaw executions), Sixtus V, Clement VIII, Blessed Pius IX, Leo XIII, Pope St. Pius X, and Pius XII. Not to mention the fact that 6 popes in the 1700's-1800's had 516 criminals executed in the Papal States by Giovanni Battista Bugatti (the official executioner of the Papal States). The more horrendous the crime, the more severe Bugatti's method of execution was.

      This new Conciliar Church of Mercy, where Justice does not exist anymore, only serves to further remove more and more one of God's Greatest Attributes-His Justice. The angels tremble before His Judgment Seat, knowing the Last Judgment will be a serious day of reckoning for all who ever lived, when all men must give an account to Almighty God for how they lived their lives.

      Where is the Holy Fear of the Lord in Francis or the prelates in the upper echelons of the heirarchy today? Where is penance today? Where is the fasting? The mortifications that holy men and women underwent at great cost to themselves through the centuries?

      Long ago (although not that long ago) popes would swear an oath that should they ever go against their predecessors who held the Keys of St. Peter in previous times before them in matters that The Church's Tradition had always taught, that God may not be merciful to them at The Last Judgment!

    Yes, pray the rosary for Pope Francis, for his conversion. Ever since his election and sitting on the Chair of St. Peter there has been such confusion like never before... Paul VI was right smoke has entered the Church and so has satan...

    I'm wondering if the prayers to Saint Michael will backfire on the Pope and he'll become... well, Catholic. V for Vigano!

    Paul VI gave us the documents of Vatican II. He was a heretic and Sodomite. He is right up there with Francis.

    • Avatar

      Hi Daniel, where did you hear that Paul VI was a Sodomite?. I am just curious as i have heard this before but can't remember where. There is such a thing called slander, and i am not saying that is what you are doing, but i really want to know what source you have that information. Thank you.

    • Avatar

      I think I read it in one of the Remnant articles but this is a well known fact because there were many witnesses and Paul VI himself had to come up to say he was not a Sodomite, never happen in this history of the Church when I sitting Pope said things like that.

  • Avatar

    Very good points Daniel. And the evidence of this has been so vividly pointed out in books by Franco Bellegrandi, Fr. Luigi Villa, and Randy Engel, among others on sites and blogs who detail this in much detail.

Hello Everyone. I am new to the discussion. Very much a huge fan of The Remnant and all that Michael Matt and Chris Ferrara have done through the years. I have followed the Remnant for years, but figured it was time to add my voice to the discussion.

Prayers are needed more than ever before for Holy Mother Church. The situation in Rome is more dire than ever before. But we should not be surprised by any of this. Our Lady has clearly tied all of this in very neatly at Quito, La Salette, Fatima, Akita, etc. The times we live in are dark indeed, but we know In The End That Her Immaculate Heart Will Triumph! If Benedict IX, John XII, Alexander VI, etc. couldn't destroy Our Lord's Church from within as well as so many heresies through the centuries such as Docetism, Gnosticism, Arianism, Nestorianism, Monophysitism, Monothelitism, Protestantism, Jansenism, Fascism, Communisim, Modernism, etc., etc., etc.-then NEITHER WILL FRANCIS! Unfortunately, the toll that Our Lord's Holy Catholic Church and the world at large will undergo will be devastating. We just need to remain faithful and do our individual parts as best we can. She will protect us!!!

This synod on how to subvert the faith of youth should clearly show us who is for Christ and his church and who is against him and the one true and apostolic church. I can't see the hard core modernists letting this opportunity pass without trying really hard to push the Martini agenda to the max , even if they are at present feeling some backslash from even middle of the road Catholics.

The title is somewhat misleading...
Bergoglio won't talk about the homosexual clergy crisis because then he would have to reveal his personal culpability.
Oh, he'll talk about nonsensicals and political agendas but he has to continue to hide his own deception and his charade of being a shepherd.
Many are seeing the wolf behind the facade of humility.

 

Own comment: 

The title of the article does not reflect its contents. There is precious little that backs up the headline.

If I am to understand the point that Fr. Celatus is making, it is that Bergoglio will bring the reign of the anti-Christ sooner, after which sanity will return, but I can't be sure because I found little in the piece to argue for a triumph of tradition.

While some have optimistically argued that Bergoglio is helping bring more people to tradition, I would argue that this is an overly optimistic view. Most Catholics wouldn't be able to tell a Bergoglioism from a dogma...Any dogma.

This look bad, but at least there is one comment - from -I can almost whole-heartedly endorse:
