Wars Are Caused By Our Sins – Fatima
I always seek to help any person I meet to get to heaven, trying to adapt my words to each person. Recently I found myself in a car with my car mechanic who does not frequent the Church, the Sacraments or prayer, as do the great majority of Italians today.
I said to him: “Giampaolo, when your children were small, did you give them advice and guidance for their good or for their harm?”
Giampaolo responded: “For their good”.
Then I said: “God the Father created the whole universe, the angels and human beings, and He gave us the Ten Commandments for our good not for our harm. Looking at the history of mankind and the Bible, when people lived the Ten Commandments things went well; when they did not live the Ten Commandments things went very badly. Today there are very few people trying to live the Ten Commandments as God wishes, and thus WE ARE GOING VERY QUICKLY TOWARD THE THIRD WORLD WAR. Our Lady of Fatima told us that wars are caused by our sins (not so much by the few evil dictators like Hitler).
“Today I heard the words: In the Old Covenant I sent prophets wielding thunderbolts to My people. Today I am sending you with My mercy to the people of the whole world. I do not want to punish aching mankind, but I desire to heal it, pressing it to My Merciful Heart. I USE PUNISHMENT WHEN THEY THEMSELVES FORCE ME TO DO SO; My hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice. Before the Day of Justice I am sending the Day of Mercy. I replied, "O my Jesus, speak to souls Yourself, because my words are insignificant." (Diary of Saint Faustina, no. 1588).
I think Giampaolo understood something. I find it easier to talk to people like Giampaolo, than the majority of priests today formed in seminaries that have been subtly but powerfully taken over by the ECCLESIAL MASONRY with the help of many Freemason bishops.
In most seminaries and Catholic Universities today, ECCLESIAL MASONRY has succeeded in changing, in the last 50 or 60 years, the foundation of faith and morals from being based on the Truth of God which does not change with the world, to the truth of the world which changes every day according to the whims of men. This has been done with very beautiful, well studied words and slogans and with a fundamental appeal to the pride of each person. Today one also finds a strong atmosphere and attitude of instilled arrogance in many ecclesial groups such as the Neocatecumenal Way, who do not obey anyone not in agreement with themselves and their founders, not even the Pope! (“The Neocatecumenal Mass”, http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2015/02/the-neocatecumenal-mass.html).
History, as well as Sacred Scripture, shows that changing the Truth of God to please the people of the world has VERY GRAVE CONSEQUENCES!
THE TRUTH COMES FROM GOD, NOT FROM THE CHURCH. The Church is the servant of the Truth, not the Author of the Truth (Jn 14:6). The Church must protect and defend the precious gift of the Truth, not modify or change the truth in a hidden sly way to please the world. When I speak with these priests brainwashed in the seminary in the last 50 years, I SENSE AN AIR OF ARROGANCE in which they believe they are called to finally interpret all of Divine Revelation in the proper way, as if the Holy Spirit did not infallibly guide the Church and her doctrines in the last 2000 years. These modern presumptuous priests consider all the documents of the Church before the arrival of themselves as old fashioned and out of date for the modern world and the modern church, or at least in need of their expert interpretation!
St. Thomas Aquinas quoting from St. Augustine, in his commentary on the right of subjects to resist flaky superiors, recalled that in St. Paul’s Letter to the Galatians, St. Paul 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 or did was not in harmony with what God has revealed to us throughout human history (called Divine Revelation), while quoting documents of the Church and the writings of the saints. This is true not only regarding doctrinal and moral truths, but also regarding true sanctity which must always be accompanied with true humility so as to lead also others to true humility by our example. Without humility, there is no virtue, and we greatly risk losing any possible good fruits even though we might be in the right regarding the truth. 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, and all those who do not have true humility and who have slid into subjectivism and relativism. By throwing out humility and the precious laws of God, we quickly go toward “might makes right” as it is in hell!
The Truth comes from God, and not from the Church, and thus no priest, bishop or pope can change the Truth of Divine Revelation which is well summarized in 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). After pointing this out to several priests in my diocese of Perugia, Italy, I asked them WHY DOES POPE FRANCIS NOT DIALOGUE WITH ANY CARDINAL, Bishop, Priest or university professor who are NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH POPE FRANCIS, as if the Truth comes from Pope Francis instead of from God?!? A very significant example of this was the four cardinals who wrote the “Dubia” (November 2016) and their book “Remaining in the Truth of Christ: Marriage and Communion in the Catholic Church” (October 2014)! These cardinals and bishops and professors were not offering their opinions among all the other human opinions, but rather they were doing what all the saints did and what Saint Paul did 2000 years ago! Why is there no longer dialogue, in the last ten years, with any cardinal or bishop or priest or professor who proclaims that we must remain faithful to the saving authentic Truth of Christ which does not change with the world?!? Instead these courageous men are silenced in various clever and hidden ways. Jesus said “the Truth (of God (the Rock) not of the world (sand)) will set you free” (Jn 8:32). Jesus did not say “a pope or a bishop will set you free”!?! Did God give us the Ten Commandments for our own true good, or for our harm? Do we trust ourselves or God? WHY DOES POPE FRANCIS SURROUND HIMSELF with priests and bishops who promote the CULTURE OF DEATH with homosexuality, same-sex marriage, trans-gender, etc???
Our Lady to Don Stefano Gobbi tells us that the great apostasy (2Thess 2:3) began with the priests. "These priest-sons of mine, who have BETRAYED THE GOSPEL in order to second the great satanic error of Marxism ... It is especially because of them that the chastisement of Communism will soon come and will deprive everyone of all they possess. Times of great tribulation will unfold. Then it will be these poor sons of mine who will begin the great apostasy. Watch and pray, all of you, priests who are faithful to me!" (July 28, 1973; “To the Priests, Our Lady's Beloved Sons” (approved by many bishops and cardinals; http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/).
“By your word, which will repeat ever more loudly and clearly the truth which my Son Jesus has come to reveal to you. Do you see how many of your brother-priests BETRAY this truth, in the attempt to adapt it to the MENTALITY of the world, impelled by a false illusion of being better understood, listened to by more people and more easily followed? NO ILLUSION IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN THIS.” (February 2, 1976).
“What is it that is obscuring the beauty and the brightness of the Church? It is the smoke of the errors which Satan has caused to enter into it. These are becoming constantly more and more disseminated and are bringing very many souls to the loss of the faith. The cause of such a vast diffusion of errors and of this great apostasy rests with UNFAITHFUL PASTORS. They remain silent when they should speak with courage to condemn error and to defend the truth. They do not intervene when they should be unmasking the rapacious wolves who, hidden beneath the clothing of lambs, have insinuated themselves into the flock of Christ. They are MUTE DOGS who allow their flocks to be torn to pieces. You, on the other hand, must speak out with force and with courage to condemn error and to spread only the truth. The time of your public and courageous witness has come.” (September 8, 1985).
BUT THE FEW PRIESTS WHO REMAIN FAITHFUL to the unchanging Truth of God will be the main instruments in the hands of Our Lady for the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary before the Second Coming of her Son, Jesus Christ. “Behold: when everything will have come tumbling down, all that will remain will be the strength of their tears that will compel me to intervene in an amazing and terrible way. And my TRIUMPH will begin with these beloved sons, my priests.” (February 23, 1974).
MOST OF THE FEW FAITHFUL PRIESTS WILL RECEIVE THE GIFT OF MARTYRDOM, but Mary will be at the foot of their cross as She was for Jesus 2000 years ago. “Oh, and even they (priests consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary) in GREAT PART will be called to the ultimate testimony. But their blood will wash and purify this world, so that from it a new world may be born, renewed in love and consecrated anew to the triumph of God!" (December 26, 1974). “Above all, I ask you to offer me the fragrant and precious flower of your suffering. On the altar of my Immaculate Heart, I want to offer all my children, in a perennial act of immolation and reparation. Only through the suffering of my littlest children can I hasten the time of the triumph of my Immaculate Heart in the world.” (May 1, 1994).
SAINT PADRE PIO said: "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do so without the HOLY MASS." This saint also said: “The ROSARY is the weapon for these times”! A good CONFESSION (a Sacrament) is more powerful than an exorcism (a sacramental)! “One day through the Rosary and the (brown) SCAPULAR, I will save the world” – Our Lady to Saint Dominic (1214).
“This is the moment for all to take refuge in me, because I am the Ark of the New Covenant. 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).
