These times...
Yesterday's blog post contained writings regarded Masonry in the Holy Roman Catholic Church...ecclesiastical masonry, to be correct.
I for one do not subscribe to conspiracy theories, however, in reading many sanctioned books, reports, etc.--one cannot help but to arrive at a conclusion that we are currently in, and speeding toward the times of warnings, signs, chastisements and tribulation our Holy Mother has been attempting to make known to Her children particularly over the last 100 years. Apparitions and interior locutions have been ever-increasing since Fatima in 1917. Mary's messages are urgent--calling us to conversion, penance, self-mortification and fasting to decrease the severity of the Father's justice that is coming...
So, if one looks at the state of the Church and the world over the past 30 years, one cannot deny that something has gone terribly wrong...
As with the bible, the Magisterium, and Mary's messages to the world...I cannot pick and choose that which I wish to believe and deny that which I do not want to ascribe to relative to the messages received by Fr. Stefano Gobbi, MMP. It is therefore, under that framework that I accept these messages, including those on ecclesiastical masonry which at first I found difficult to believe. Everything points to a powerful elite moving the world toward a one-world government. Mary tells us they are also in the Church. Will they succeed? If the faithful continue to deny what our Holy Mother asks of us--prayer (daily rosary), penance and fasting--then it will be easy for them to succeed. She also tells us that the chastisements are with us--in the initial stages--"and will become more severe...only prayer and conversion will lessen the wrath--but it is coming..."the cup of justice is overflowing."
That the Church has been attacked with great venom from within is evident. Thus, today I will post two messages relating to this latter issue. I give it in faith. Remember that the time is coming when the Holy Mass will not be celebrated anywhere in the world for 1,290 days. Thus, even if you have fallen away, come to the Sacrament of Reconciliation and return to the Holy Mass and Christ in the Eucharist...

"If the Red Dragon is Marxist atheism, the black beast is Freemasonry. The Dragon manifests himself in the force of his power; the black beast on the other hand acts in the shadow, keeps out of sight and hides himself in such a way as to enter everywhere. He has the claws of a bear and the mouth of a lion, because he works everywhere with cunning and with the means of social communication, that is to say, through propaganda. The seven heads indicate the various Masonic lodges, which act everywhere in a subtle and dangerous way...the task of the Black Beast, namely of Masonry, is that of fighting, in a subtle way, but tenaciously, to obstruct souls from traveling along this way, pointed out by the Father and the Son and lit up by the gifts of the Spirit. In fact if the Red Dragon works to bring all humanity to do without God, to the denial of God, and therefore spreads the error of atheism, the aim of Masonry is not to deny God, but to blaspheme Him...This is why in these times, behind the perverse action of Freemasonry, there is being spread everywhere black masses and the satanic cult. Moreover, Masonry acts, by every means, to prevent souls from being saved and thus it endeavors to bring to nothing the redemption accomplished by Christ..."
"The task of the Masonic lodges is that of working today, with great astuteness, to bring humanity everywhere to disdain the holy law of God, to work in open opposition to the Ten Commandments, and to take away the worship due to God alone in order to offer it to certain false idols which become extolled and adored by an ever-increasing number of people:reason, flesh, money, discord, domination, violence, pleasure..."

"The Black Beast is also Masonry which has infiltrated the Church and attacks it, wounds it, and seeks by its subtle tactics to demolish it. Like a poisonous cloud, its spirit seeps in everywhere, to paralyze faith, extinguish apostolic ardor and produce an ever greater alienation from Jesus and His Gospel...to the attack of the Red Dragon and the Black Beast, I respond by summoning all to the battle, so that God may be ever more glorified and the Church, in its children, healed from the wounds of infidelity and apostasy..."--To The Priests, Our Lady's Beloved Sons (2009),MMP; Interior locutions to Fr.

Be alert to what is coming....
"As for you, Daniel, keep secret the message and seal the book until the end time; many shall fall away and evil shall increase. I heard but I did not understand; so I asked, 'My Lord what follows this?' 'Go Daniel,' he said, "because the words are to be kept secret and sealed until the end time. Many shall be refined, purified, and tested, but the wicked shall prove wicked; none of them shall have understanding, but the wise shall have it. From the time that the daily sacrifice is abolished and the horrible abomination is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is the man who has patience and perseveres until the one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days. Go, take your rest, you shall rise for your reward at the end of days."
--Daniel, 12:4-13
In the 1820's, Blessed Anna Katarina Emmerick, an Augustinian nun and stigmatist, had visions of the Church in the future. On May 13, 1820, she stated, "I saw also the relationship between the two popes...I saw how baleful would be the consequences of this false church. I saw it increase in size; heretics of every kind came into the city (Rome). The local clergy grew lukewarm, and I saw a great darkness...Once more I saw that the Church of Peter was undermined by a plan evolved by the secret sect (ecclesial masonry), while storms were damaging it."
On September 12, 1820, she said: "I saw a strange church being built against every rule...No angels were supervising the building operations. In that church nothing came from high above...There was only division and chaos. It's probably a church of human creation, following the latest fashion, as well as the new heterodox church[not in accord with established religious beliefs or doctrine] of Rome, which seems of the same kind...I saw again the strange big church that was being built there (Rome). There was nothing holy in it...Everything was being done according to human reason. I saw all sorts of people, things, doctrines, and opinions. There was something proud, presumptuous, and violent about it, and they seemed to be very successful. I did not see a single angel or a single saint helping in the work. But far away in the background, I saw the seat of a cruel people armed with spears, and I saw a laughing figure which said: 'Do build it as solid as you can; we will pull it to the ground.'"
Then on April 22, 1823 she spoke these words: "I saw that many pastors allowed themselves to be taken up with ideas that were dangerous to the Church. They were building a great, strange and extravagant Church. Everyone was to be admitted in it in order to be united and have equal rights; Evangelicals, Catholics, sects of every description. Such was to be the new Church...but God had other designs."
From Blessed Anna-Maria Taigi (19th c.):"Religion shall be persecuted, and priests massacred. Churches shall be closed, but only for a short time. The Holy Father shall be obligated to leave Rome."

Our Lady Speaks thus:"...the fourth sign (of the end time), is the horrible sacrilege, perpetrated by him who sets himself against Christ, that is, AntiChrist. He will enter into the holy temple of God and will sit on his throne and have himself adored as God."
"This one will oppose and exalt himself against everything that men adore and call God. The lawless one will come by the power of Satan, with all the force of false miracles and pretended wonders. He will make use of every kind of wicked deception, in order to work harm" (2 Thes, 2:4,9-10).
"One day, you will see in the holy place he who commits the horrible sacrilege. The prophet Daniel spoke of this. Let the reader seek to understand" (Mt 24:15).
"Beloved children, in order to understand in what this horrible sacrilege consists, read what has been predicted by the prophet Daniel:'Go Daniel; these words are to remain secret and sealed until the end time. Many will be cleansed, made white and upright, but the wicked will persist in doing wrong. Not one of the wicked will understand these things, but the wise will comprehend....Now from the moment that the daily Sacrifice is abolished and the horrible abomination is set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred and ninety days. Blessed is he who waits with patience and attains one thousand three hundred and thirty-five days'"(Dn, 12:9-12).
"The Holy Mass is the daily Sacrifice, the pure oblation which is offered to the Lord everywhere, from the rising of the sun to its going down...The Sacrifice of the Mass renews that which was accomplished by Jesus on Calvary. 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, namely, one thousand two hundred and ninety days."

Tomorrow I will provide more on Masonry and its evil manipulations in the world as seen by our Blessed Mother and the saints...to be aware of these things is to come to conversion before it is too late.

When the Son of Man returns...
March 13, 1990 (Sao Paulo, Brazil)
"You read in the Gospel: 'When the Son of Man returns, will He still find faith on earth?' [Luke, 18:8].
Today I wan to invite you to meditate on these words, uttered by my Son Jesus. They are grave words, which cause one to reflect and which succeed in making you understand the times through which you are living. First of all, you can ask why Jesus has uttered them: to prepare you for His second coming and to describe for you a circumstance which will be indicative of the proximity of His glorious return.
This circumstance is the loss of faith.
Also, in another part of Holy Scripture, in the letter of Saint Paul to the Thessalonians, it is clearly announced that, before the glorious return of Christ, a great apostasy must take place. The loss of the faith is a true apostasy. The spread of the apostasy is therefore the sign which indicates that the second coming of Christ is, as of now, close at hand.
At Fatima, I have foretold to you that a time would come when the true faith would be lost. These are the times. Your days are marked by this painful and significant situation, which was foretold to you in Holy Scripture: the true faith is in the process of disappearing in an ever increasingly greater number of my children.
The causes of the loss of faith are: (1) the spread of errors which are being propagated and are often taught by the professors of theology in seminaries and in Catholic schools and which thus acquire a certain character of credibility and legitimacy; (2) the open and public rebellion against the authentic Magisterium of the Church, especially against that of the Pope, who has from Christ the duty of preserving the whole Church in the truth of the Catholic faith; (3) the bad example given by those pastors, who have allowed themselves to be completely possessed by the spirit of the world and who become propagators of political and sociological ideologies, rather than messengers of Christ and of His Gospel, thus forgetting the mandate received from Him: 'Go into the world and preach the Gospel to every creature.' [Mark, 16:15].
Thus, in these days of yours, apostasy on the part of many of my poor children is inundating you more and more.
'When the Son of Man returns....'
If indeed His return is close at hand, then my motherly action becomes more concerned and vigorous, in order to assist all my children to remain ever in the truth of the faith. This is why I have asked you to consecrate yourselves to my Immaculate Heart. This is why, in these times of yours, I have spread everywhere my Marian Movement of Priests: to form the little flock, reunited in the prayer of the cenacles and watchful in expectation--the flock gathered together and formed by me to ever preserve the true faith.
Thus, when the Son of Man returns, He will still find the faith on earth in all those who will have consecrated themselves to be gathered together in the heavenly garden of my Immaculate Heart."

September 15--Memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows
Prayer: Blessed Virgin Mary, you watched in anquish as your son died on the cross for our salvation. Through your sufferings, may the whole Church be ever mindfulof the passion of Jesus. By your prayers, may our eyes be opened to the sufferings of those around us. Following your example, may we be people of compassion and love...Amen.

Modernism to post-modernism...
"We must now break silence, in order to expose before the whole Church, in their true colors, those men who have assumed this bad disguise...to refute their charge that we do not understand their ideas. We desired to show their system does not consist in scattered and unconnected theories, but is a perfectly organized body, all parts which are solidly joined so that it is not possible to admit one without admitting all. We define modernism as the synthesis of all heresies, attempting the task of collecting together all the errors that have been broached against the faith and to concentrate the sap and substance of them all into one. It means the destruction not of the Catholic religion alone, but of all religion. The whole system, with all its errors, has been born of the alliance between faith and false philosophy."
"They audaciously charge the Church both with taking the wrong road from inability to distinguish the religious and moral sense of formulas from their surface meaning, and with clinging tenaciously and vainly to meaningless formulas whilst religion is allowed to go to ruin...modernists do not deny, but actually admit, some confusedly, others in the most open manner, that all religions are true."
"The modernists recognize that the three chief difficulties for them are scholastic philosophy, the authority of the Fathers and Tradition, and the Magisterium of the Church. On these they rage unrelenting war. For scholastic philosophy and theology they have only ridicule and contempt. Whether it is ignorance or fear, or both, that inspires this conduct in them, it is certain that the passion for novelty is always united in them with a hatred of Scholasticism, and there is no surer sign that a man is on the way to modernism [than] when he begins to show his dislike for the system."
"Modernists try in every way to diminish and weaken authority. They propose to remove the ecclesiastical Magisterium itself by sacrilegiously falsifying its origin, character, rights, and by freely repeating the calumnies of its adversaries."--Pope Pius X (1907); A Catechism of Modernism, Fr. J.B. Lemius, O.M.I., (1981);Tan Books and Publishers, Rockford, Illinois.
How prophetic these words are, written in 1907...contemplate...then look at where we are in 2010....

The Great Tribulation...
December 31, 1987 (Como, Italy)
"In my Immaculate Heart, in an act of unceasing prayer, spend with me the last hours of this year, which is now about to end. It is an important year and one particularly blessed by my Immaculate Heart, because it has been solemnly and officially consecrated to me by my Pope.
You are now at the midpoint of the Marian Year. You have entered into my time. You are beneath the sign of the great events which have been foretold to you.
Know how to read and how to meditate upon that which, in Sacred Scripture, has been clearly described for you to help you understand the time in which you are living. With my motherly voice I am leading you all to understand the signs of the great tribulation.From the Gospels, from the Letters of the Apostles and from the book of the Apocalypse, sure signs have been clearly described for you to make you understand what the period of the great tribulation is. All these signs are in the act of being realized in this time of yours.
--First of all, a great apostasy is spreading in every part of the Church, through the lack of faith which is flooding even among its very pastors. Satan has succeeded in spreading everywhere the great apostasy, by means of his subtle work of seduction, which has brought many to be alienated from the truth of the Gospel to follow the fables of the new theological theories and to take delight in evil and in sin, sought after as an actual good.
--Then, in your time, overturnings of the order of nature are multiplying, such as earthquakes, droughts, floods, and disasters which cause the unforeseen death of thousands of persons, followed by epidemics and incurable diseases which are spreading everywhere.
--Moreover, your days are marked by continual rumors of wars which are multiplying and are reaping, each day, innumerable victims. Conflicts and dissensions within countries are increasing; revolts and struggles between various peoples are propagating; bloody wars are continuing to extend themselves, notwithstanding all the efforts which are being made to attain peace.
--Finally, in your time, there are occurring great signs in the sun, on the moon and in the stars.The miracle of the sun which took place at Fatima was a sign which I gave you to warn you that the times of these extraordinary phenomena which are taking place in the heavens have now arrived. And how many times during my present apparitions have you yourselves been able to contemplate the great prodigies that are taking place in the sun.
Just as the buds which sprout forth on the trees tell you that spring has now arrived, so also these great signs which are taking place in your time are telling you that even now there has come to you the great tribulation, which is preparing you for the new era which I have promised you with the triumph of my Immaculate Heart in the world.
This is the reason why your time has been consecrated to me with a special Marian Year in my honor. Because the Most Holy Trinity has entrusted to the Immaculate Heart of your heavenly Mother the task of preparing the Church and all humanity to live with confidence the hour of the great tribulation, which prepares you for the glorious return of Christ."
--To the Priests--Our Lady's Beloved Sons (2009); Interior locutions to Fr. Stefano Gobbi, MMP; #370, pp.541-43.

All these signs are in the act of being realized in this time of yours.
--First of all, a great apostasy is spreading in every part of the Church, through the lack of faith which is flooding even among its very pastors. Satan has succeeded in spreading everywhere the great apostasy, by means of his subtle work of seduction, which has brought many to be alienated from the truth of the Gospel to follow the fables of the new theological theories and to take delight in evil and in sin, sought after as an actual good.
--Then, in your time, overturnings of the order of nature are multiplying, such as earthquakes, droughts, floods, and disasters which cause the unforeseen death of thousands of persons, followed by epidemics and incurable diseases which are spreading everywhere.
--Moreover, your days are marked by continual rumors of wars which are multiplying and are reaping, each day, innumerable victims. Conflicts and dissensions within countries are increasing; revolts and struggles between various peoples are propagating; bloody wars are continuing to extend themselves, notwithstanding all the efforts which are being made to attain peace.
--Finally, in your time, there are occurring great signs in the sun, on the moon and in the stars.The miracle of the sun which took place at Fatima was a sign which I gave you to warn you that the times of these extraordinary phenomena which are taking place in the heavens have now arrived. And how many times during my present apparitions have you yourselves been able to contemplate the great prodigies that are taking place in the sun.
Just as the buds which sprout forth on the trees tell you that spring has now arrived, so also these great signs which are taking place in your time are telling you that even now there has come to you the great tribulation, which is preparing you for the new era which I have promised you with the triumph of my Immaculate Heart in the world.
This is the reason why your time has been consecrated to me with a special Marian Year in my honor. Because the Most Holy Trinity has entrusted to the Immaculate Heart of your heavenly Mother the task of preparing the Church and all humanity to live with confidence the hour of the great tribulation, which prepares you for the glorious return of Christ."
