MDM-BOT Is NOT Catholic – BEWARE!
It is a very grave injustice and very harmful to people to tell them that MDM-BOT is Catholic (MDM: Maria Divine Mercy; BOT: Book of Truth). The people in MDM-BOT do not obey anyone on the face of the earth and could care less about any document of the Catholic Church that indicates problems with MDM-BOT. As all cults and sects, including those founded on false condemned private revelations, they feel they are above the Catholic Church or any authority on the face of the earth.
Unfortunately MDM-BOT followers masquerade as being Catholic! Instead of putting before themselves the “Book of Truth”, they should put before themselves the Holy Bible and the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC; ed. 1992, promulgated by Pope John Paul II; http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_INDEX.HTM). This is especially devastating to so many poorly catechized Catholics which is so prevalent today.
Prophetic private revelations are so important, especially in times of great crisis and confusion, that Satan seeks in every way to diminish their divulgation, influence and effect. In 1882, Christ revealed to the stigmatist, Marie Julie Jahenny of La Fraudais, France that: "In the last days, a seemingly unlimited amount of FALSE REVELATIONS will arise from hell like a swarm of flies; a last attempt of Satan to choke and to destroy the efficacy of the TRUE REVELATIONS by false ones."
This indicates that the true private revelations are important enough for Satan to try to diminish their effectiveness in helping to alert souls of the very great dangers in this period of time when even “the elect will be deceived if possible” (Mt 24:24). But this also indicates that there are many false revelations and thus one must be wise and prudent especially in regards to recent revelations in which the proper Church authorities have not made any pronouncement yet.
St. John also tells us: “Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are of God: for many false prophets have gone out into the world” (1Jn 4:1).
I get the strong impression from the followers of MDM-BOT that the only thing that is important for them is to read these predictions of MDM-BOT, as if this is the criteria of their salvation and supposed sanctity! On the other hand Our Lady in the Blue Book (Gobbi) repeats in many ways the basic message of Fatima, prayer and sacrifice and penance. Our Lady in the Blue Book leads us to Calvary to imitate her Son Jesus humiliated and crucified on the cross. The followers of MDM-BOT do not see, or do not want to see, this fundamental difference, because it seems that the great majority of people today do not want to follow Christ humiliated and crucified (as was the case 2000 years ago and always) but rather to feel important and protagonists with special secrets and future predictions, which was one of the main appeals of the major heresy in the early centuries of the Church, Gnosticism, which has continued to thrive during the centuries in various different forms.
In this period of great crisis socially, politically, economically and spiritually, there is more than ever before a great human DESIRE TO FIND STABILITY AND SECURITY, which can be only found in true humble abandonment to God through His Mother Mary in each present moment, NOT in the false security which Satan offers us in many ways. Part of our just punishment in this period, as indicated by the prophecy of Saint Francis of Assisi, is to lose the guidance of the Pope, that is to lose the gift of security in the guidance of an apparent living Pope. In the history of mankind, there are numerous examples of people and groups clinging on to false securities which were not based on true trust in God but in themselves and in their own groups; these groups range from the early Donatists in the time of Saint Augustine to Protestants sects to numerous recent schismatic groups. Our only true security is true humble abandonment to Jesus through “the Ark of the New Covenant”, the Immaculate Heart of Mary. “At the time of Noah, immediately before the flood, those whom the Lord had destined to survive his terrible chastisement entered into the ark. In these your times, I am inviting all my beloved children to enter into the Ark of the New Covenant which I have built in my Immaculate Heart for you, that they may be assisted by me to carry the bloody burden of the great trial, which precedes the coming of the day of the Lord” (“To The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons”: July 30, 1986; March 15, 1993; December 8, 1996; December 31, 1996). “The IMMACULATE HEART, (…) ark of the new Covenant, (…) is found ONLY here in the TABERNACLE where Jesus is truly kept” (August 21, 1987). This is our true security, but we must live, moment by moment, our consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. As long as Peter kept his eyes on Jesus, he could walk on water; as soon as he took his eyes off of Jesus, Peter sank into the water (Mt 14:27-31)! Mary helps us keep our eyes and hearts on Jesus!
The fundamental criteria is true humility as Saint Louis de Montfort tells us and which is explained in much greater detail in the private revelations of Our Lady through Don Stefano Gobbi: “To The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons” (http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/), which is approved by many bishops and cardinals. Our Lady continually tells us that we must become little children in her arms “with complete abandonment and with the greatest confidence in your immaculate Mother” (February 2, 1981, etc.). Without true humility, there is always spiritual blindness and obstinacy in not listening to anyone not in agreement with ourselves. This is the moment to be with Jesus on the cross and Mary at the foot of the cross in this period of the purification, of the crucifixion of the Body of Christ, the Church (cf. CCC 675-677)! What did Mary do during the scandal of the crucifixion? What must we do during the crucifixion of the Body of Christ, the Church, so as to imitate our Sorrowful Mother? Jesus was a priest on the cross and very often in the Blue Book one finds the words of the heavenly Mother who prepares her “beloved Sons”, the priests, for the same great vocation of our Lord Jesus, of our “immolation” with Jesus!
In this period there will be a great and eternal separation among all living human beings. The first beast, the Antichrist, along with the second beast, the False Prophet, will deceive those who will willing receive the mark of the beast and who will worship the image of the beast (Rev 19:20; 13:16). The truly humble, who truly trust in God, not in themselves, will receive “the seal of God”. It is the ANGELS who are to seal “the servants of God on their foreheads” (Rev 7:3) with “the seal of God” (Rev 9:4), NOT the “Seal of the Living God” by way of a condemned seer, Maria Divine Mercy, MDM! This “seal of God” will be given to those who truly live faith, hope, charity and humility, so as to have true union with the crucified Body of Christ (CCC 675-677), with Christ crucified and Mary at the foot of the cross with each of us in our immolation in this period of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21)! This is our true and only security, NOT A SEAL ON A PIECE OF PAPER distributed by a condemned seer, Maria Divine Mercy, MDM!!! “If you love me, you will keep my commandments” (Jn 14:15, 23; 15:10; 1Jn 5:3; 2Jn 6). THIS IS OUR REAL AND TRUE SECURITY!!!
The followers of MDM-BOT are fond of proof texting, as do the protestants and so many other heretical groups, by picking out Bible verses and some Catholic devotions, that suit them, to convince people that they are right, but they refuse the guidance of the Magisterium of the Church for 2000 years so as to remain orthodox and not to be subtly led astray.
The followers of MDM-BOT say that true humility is to obey MDM-BOT. Hitler would say humility is to obey Hitler! But the saints say that true humility is to obey God who gave us the Catholic Church, and thus to obey the Magisterium of the Church with all of her documents for 2000 years. Jesus founded his Church on twelve apostles, not on MDM-BOT. “Satan disguises himself as an angel of light” (2Cor 11:14).
A strong promoter of MDM-BOT posted a written work with an imprimatur. I commented: “Why is the imprimatur important to you for this work but not for MDM or BOT???” He replied: “Because Virgin Mary expressly wished that Imprimatur be given for this crucial revelation "Warnings from the Beyond"!”
Of course this is the “Virgin Mary” of a condemned private revelation!
He also wrote: “Imprimatur for the Book of Truth will not be given, because Freemasons are now in Vatican, in the highest positions of the Church!
I commented: “The Blue Book of Gobbi has many Imprimatur's. The Blue Book leads toward true humility and obedience whereas the BOT leads to feeling in a special group better than others, with a false security of a seal on a piece of paper. The Blue Book tells us that THE ONLY REFUGE IN THIS PERIOD OF TIME IS THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY. How many people, who do not know their Catholic faith well are being slowly led toward pride and complacency rather than humility and total trust in the Immaculate Heart of Mary. You must think Satan is so stupid that he cannot create a false private revelation that seems like an angel of light (2Cor 11:14), and that you feel, in your great humility, that you could never be deceived since you believe you are so intelligent and do not need to look at Divine Revelation explained by the Church and the saints for 2000 years! Best wishes for all eternity. I am very sorry for those you will lead to trust MDM-BOT instead of the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC; ed. 1992, promulgated by Pope John Paul II; http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_INDEX.HTM).”
I also wrote:
“It is interesting that the bishop who gave the imprimatur comes from Necedah where I spent 3 years.
The Cult At Necedah, Wisconsin

Explanation and Background”
The written work posted included the following:
Imprimatur: + Nadškof Stanley Monaghan. Necedah, Wisconsin.
It is amazing how many false bishops have passed through Necedah, Wisconsin, which began in 1950!
Even though MDM-BOT is condemned by many bishops, especially in the country of its origin, Ireland, there are many followers of this cult especially in the English speaking world where VERY FEW CATHOLICS ARE WELL CATECHIZED, since there was so much Masonic promoted confusion after the Second Vatican Council. There are also, as always, the clever ones who take advantage of the situation for their own personal glory and other personal motives. Even after the publication of the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC; ed. 1992, promulgated by Pope John Paul II), there are few good pastors well formed in seminary training in the last 40 years and who are willing to suffer and risk being ridiculed, by the badly formed priests and bishops, in order to protect the faithful from so many erroneous doctrines that do great harm to the faithful. We are truly living in the times when there will be “lead astray, if possible, even the elect” (Mt 24:24). “Therefore God sends upon them a strong delusion, to make them believe what is false, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness” (2Thess 2:11-12).
Even though today we hear very little from pastors warnings to protect the sheep, THE SAINTS WARNED US OFTEN OF THE GREAT DANGER OF DIFFERENT DOCTRINES (1Tim 1:3-5), doctrines of demons (1Tim 4,1-5), diverse and strange teachings (Heb 13:9), false apostles (2Cor 11:13), false brethren (2Cor 11:26), false and suspect doctrines and the beautiful lies of the devil (Saint Ignatious of Antioch; Office of Readings, OT 16, Monday and Tuesday).
Saint Paul was not a “dumb dog” (Is 56:10): “So that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the cunning of men, by their craftiness in deceitful wiles” (Eph 4:14).
“Teach what befits sound doctrine” (Tit 2:1); “in your teaching show integrity, gravity” (Tit 2:7).
“Anyone who goes ahead and does not abide in the doctrine of Christ does not have God … (2Jn 1:9).
“If anyone teaches otherwise and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching which accords with godliness, 4 he is puffed up with conceit, he knows nothing; he has a morbid craving for controversy and for disputes about words …” (1Tim 6:3-4).
I have found almost no promoter of MDM-BOT interested in discovering the discernment process of private revelation given to us by the traditions of the Church and of the saints in the last 2000 years, but rather a very strong attitude of justifying and defending MDM-BOT as if MDM-BOT is for them the primary sources of all truth! They are not seeking truth according to God explained by the Church, but according to how they want the truth. For these promoters of MDM-BOT, the truth comes from the supposed words of God by a condemned seer but not from Jesus Christ who founded the Catholic Church. This is in total contrast with the teachings of the Catholic Church regarding the criteria of the discernment process for private revelation!
It is interesting how the two extremes meet! These promoters of MDM-BOT believe they are to source of all truth, and yet Bergoglio, who they condemn, also clearly indicates that he believes he is the source of all truth!
A good example of this is that Bergoglio was not willing to dialogue in any way with the four cardinals who wrote the “Dubia” (November 2016) after the publication of ‘Amoris Laetitia’ (March 2016)! Like Bergoglio, the numerous proud “religious authorities” of the “modern church” feel they can finally interpret all of Divine Revelation in the right way, as if for 2000 years the Holy Spirit made a mistake in the inspiration of the documents of the Church. And yet these proud “religious authorities” are cowards when it comes to answering the grave objections of cardinals, bishops, priests, theology professors or lay people who simply explain that we must remain faithful to the unchanging Divine Revelation as it has been explained infallibly in the documents of the Church for 2000 years.
In ‘Amoris Laetitia” there is no mention (silence) of the great damage to children of separated parents and the responsibility of parents in this regard, but only what the adults want! This is in strong contrast with the teaching of the Church, up until March 2013, to safeguard the family, the fundamental cell of society, and the children, the future of society. Many times I said to my parishioners that if I, Father Joe, begin to preach in contrast to the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC; ed. 1992, promulgated by Pope John Paul II; http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_INDEX.HTM), follow the CCC because the Truth from God does not change; DO NOT FOLLOW Father Joe to hell!!!
St. Thomas Aquinas quoting of St. Augustine, in his commentary on the right of subjects to resist flaky superiors, recalled that in St. Paul’s Letter to the Galatians, he rebuked the first pope, St. Peter, “to his face because he clearly was wrong” (Gal 2:11-14). There being an imminent danger for the Faith, prelates must be questioned, even publicly, by their subjects. Thus, St. Paul, who was a subject of St. Peter, questioned him publicly on account of an imminent danger of scandal in a matter of Faith. And, as the Glossa of St. Augustine puts it (Ad Galatas 2.14), “St. Peter himself gave the example to those who govern so that if sometimes they stray from the right way, they will not reject a correction as unworthy even if it comes from their subjects.” (Summa Theologiae, IIa IIae, Q. 33, A. 4).
If I realize and believe that the truth comes from God not from me, and I have a little virtue, especially humility, I should be willing to listen to someone who says to me that what I wrote or said was not in harmony with what God has revealed to us throughout human history (called Divine Revelation), while quoting documents of the Church. But if I believe or feel that the truth comes from me, I will not be willing to dialogue with anyone not in agreement with me, as have done all the dictators in the history of the world. By throwing out the precious laws of God, we quickly go toward “might makes right” as it is in hell!
Bergoglio will dialogue with no one who is not in agreement with himself. The promoters of MDM-BOT do not want to discover how the Catholic Church goes through the process of discernment for private revelation, because they believe to be above the Catholic Church of 2000 years, and thus they fabricate God according to their desires with the help of a false condemned seer!
Dear friends, we are living in the most deceptive period in the history of the world and of the Church.
“For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect” (Mt 24:24).
“Therefore God sends upon them a strong delusion, to make them believe what is false, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness” (2Thess 2:11-12).
“I heard, but I did not understand. Then I said, “O my lord, what shall be the issue of these things?” He said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the end. Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are wise shall understand.” (Dan 12:8-10).
“Also it was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer them” (Rev 13:7).
Dear friends, stick with well approved apparitions that do not deceive in a hidden way, and that lead to true holiness of life with true humility and self sacrifice with Mary at the foot of the cross.
You might find enlightening and helpful in this period of great confusion: “To the Priests, Our Lady's Beloved Sons” (http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/).
Almost twenty Cardinal and more than 150 Bishops, more than 50,000 priests and religious, have followed the Marian Movement of Priests (MMP), receiving by way of the book which contains the messages, precious teaching from the Mother of God, in this devastating attack of the ecclesiastical Masonry on the sound doctrine of the Church and the Sacraments, especially the Most Holy Eucharist.
Many bishops have given their Imprimatur to this book. You will find in these messages of Our Lady revealed through Don Stefano Gobbi a resemblance to the writings of Saint Louis de Montfort, Saint Therese of the Child Jesus and to the messages of Our Lady of Fatima, with the sweetness that only the Mother of God, and the Mother of each of us, could communicate to those open to the caresses of Our Lady!
