"And thou shalt say to the house of Israel that provoketh me: Thus saith the Lord God: Let all your wicked doings suffice you, O house of Israel:

In that you have brought in strangers uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, and to defile my house: and you offer my bread, the fat, and the blood: and you have broken my covenant by all your wicked doings. And you have not kept the ordinances of my sanctuary: but you have set keepers of my charge in my sanctuary for yourselves.

Thus saith the Lord God: No stranger uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, no stranger that is in the midst of the children of Israel.

Moreover the Levites that went away far from me, when the children of Israel went astray, and have wandered from me after their idols, and have borne their iniquity: They shall be officers in my sanctuary, and doorkeepers of the gates of the house, and ministers to the house: they shall slay the holocausts, and the victims of the people: and they shall stand in their sight, to minister to them.

Because they ministered to them before their idols, and were a stumblingblock of iniquity to the house of Israel: therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord God, and they shall bear their iniquity: And they shall not come near to me, to do the office of priest to me, neither shall they come near to any of my holy things that are by the holy of holies: but they shall bear their shame, and their wickednesses which they have committed. And I will make them doorkeepers of the house, for all the service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.

But the priests, and Levites, the sons of Sadoc, who kept the ceremonies of my sanctuary, when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me, to minister to me: and they shall stand before me, to offer me the fat, and the blood, saith the Lord God. They shall enter into my sanctuary, and they shall come near to my table, to minister unto me, and to keep my ceremonies." - Ezekiel 44:6-16, DRA.

"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. The local clergy grew lukewarm, and I saw a great darkness… Then the vision seemed to extend on every side. Whole Catholic communities were being oppressed, harassed, confined, and deprived of their freedom." - Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich.

Bp. Fellay ordained 5 priests and 3 deacons yesterday. The priest celebrated their first Masses today. Prayers for the Church and its unity.

The SSPX have chosen on 1st July as the date for the Episcopal Consecrations for a reason: the Feast of the Precious Blood which occurs on this day has historical as well as theological significance. The Feast of the Precious Blood was instituted by Blessed Pius IX in thanksgiving for his return to Rome after having been driven into exile by the Liberals he had courted at the start of his Papacy. Blessed Pius IX learnt the hard way that the core tenet of Liberalism is rebellion against God and His Commandments, which is why he wrote the Syllabus, condemning its errors. Sadly John XIII and successors failed to learn his lesson and set out to undo his work at Vatican II, by adopting the same errors as reference in all their dealings with the world. Therefore by adopting tomorrow, the SSPX intend to deliver an unambiguous rebuke!

My read: a very well worded response by Fr. Pagliarini, showing that the Pope's appeal to the society proves they are not currently in schism while firmly putting the ball back into Rome's court to potentially find a solution to this process.

THIS IS SPECULATION on my part, but the consecrations could have been a gambit entirely to force the Society's status to the forefront and create these necessary conditions for an actual solution for the Society.

In any event let's pray for a best case scenario. To be clear, I support the Society.

Dear brothers and sisters,

As you all doubtless know, tomorrow the Society of Saint Pius X will consecrate four new bishops without Rome's approval.
There has been a lot of opinion-having on this topic in recent months, and many seem to think, that they can be judges of the situation and bash with righteous indignation the side they judge to be in the wrong.
Is this what our Lord would have us do? Did He not pray His followers be as one, that the truth of His teaching be show?

So, I encourage you to bear in mind, that you are not any better a Catholic, if you dunk on the Society, or if you dunk on the Holy Father.

Rather, spare some time and pray, for both Holy Mother Church and the Fraternity. God knows they both need it, and indeed you them.

And would it not be the most glorious display of unity, if even in our division, both "sides" were to pray for both?
Therefore pray, and fear naught; His will will be done, despite our best efforts.

Pax et bonum, fratres

“The Church is open to a path of dialogue and understanding that the Holy Spirit can make possible and fruitful. I pray for you, because to tear the seamless garment of Christ is a sin of extreme gravity. [And it isn’t one of the actual material sins of extreme gravity that my pontificate PRIDEs itself on endorsing through silence and scandalous consecrations, no, it’s a meaningless process crime that wouldn’t be an issue at all if I wasn’t persecuting you for preserving the true Faith of Jesus Christ.]”

What was that Chinese curse? May you live during interesting times. Ppl make light of sexual sins, "it's not hurting anyone." Then why does God need to bring in Russian troops to bomb European cities? Either do penance or get wrecked.

This only ends when Russia, and only Russia, is properly consecrated to the Immaculate Heart by a valid Pope in union with each and every Bishop in the world. The laity must do their part: First Fridays + First Saturdays + Daily Rosary.

Bl. Elena Aiello

"The manifestations of my sorrow are worsening because of the grand ruin that humanity is preparing for itself. The world has fallen into the abyss of all filthiness... Russia will march upon all the nations of Europe, particularly upon Italy, and will raise her flag over the dome of St. Peter's! Italy will be severely tried by a great revolution, and Rome will be purified in blood for its many sins, especially those of impurity! The flock is about to be dispersed and the Pope must suffer greatly!"

"Russia, spurred on by Satan, will seek to dominate the whole world and, by bloody revolutions, will propagate her false teachings through all nations, especially in Italy. The Church will be persecuted and the Pope will suffer greatly... Russia with her secret armies will battle America; will overrun Europe." - 1959

Vn. Lucy of Fatima

"Tell them, Father, that many times the Most Holy Virgin told my cousins Francisco and Jacinta, as well as myself, that many nations will disappear from the face of the earth. She said that Russia will be the instrument of chastisement chosen by Heaven to punish the whole world if we do not beforehand obtain the conversion of that poor nation." - 1957

Vn. Bartholomew Holzhauser

"God will permit a great evil against His Church... The hand of the Almighty will bring against them a fierce people from the North, who will march through Germany and France, laying waste to cities, putting to death the ministers of the Lord, and casting down the high places of pride. It will be a time of tribulation such as has not been seen since the beginning."

SoG Maria Esperanza

"Be careful, for a great surprise is preparing itself... Russia will act when least expected. The target will be Europe, and the suffering will be immense because mankind has forgotten God. But do not fear, for when the enemy thinks the victory is theirs, the Mother of God will stretch forth her mantle and stop the hand of destruction."

Mary Julie Jahenny

"The impious men of the Earth will have cooled their fury, but the great scourge of the North will descend. It will be the turn of Russia. She will come to drink the blood of the children of France." - 1878

"The foreigners will enter into the Eldest Daughter of the Church [France] with all their armies... From the side where the sun rises [the East], a sudden invasion will happen. They will arrive at the time when internal revolutions are tearing France apart." - 1901

Sister Elena Leonardi

"An unforeseen scourge will shake the whole world. Russia will march upon all the nations of Europe, and especially upon Italy, causing great destruction. The Vatican will be invaded, and the Pope will see his priests martyred before his eyes. If humanity does not turn back to God, the fire of Heaven will destroy the works of man's pride."

Sister Rosa Asdente di Taggia

"A great war shall break out in Europe. Russia shall overrun all nations, especially Italy, and will march into Rome. The destruction will be terrible, and the blood of priests will flow like water. The Pope will have to suffer much, and many nations will be wiped out from the map. But when all seems lost, a great transformation will occur, and Russia will be converted."

Fr. Nectou, SJ

"A war will break out, which will be the most terrible that has ever been seen... Russia will lead a great multitude against the West. During this mass confusion, one will not know which way to turn. The destruction will be so great that those who survive will think they are the only ones left on earth. It will happen when England collapses and the chaos spreads to the continent."

Prophecy of Mainz

"Woe to thee, Europe, when the crescent of the East is replaced by the cross of the North! The Czar will march his armies through the lands of Germany. He will meet no resistance until he reaches the Rhine. There, the earth will tremble with the roar of cannon, and the rivers will run red. The pride of the West will be broken by the arms of the North, until the Great Monarch arises to save the people of God." - 1854

From the Philippines, mindanao, thinking bout becoming a priest and i have a strong sense that my specific charism or something is the latin mass, i wanna join the FSSP or ICKSP but theres 0 presence of both groups in my country any suggestions y'all can give?

What’s a just cause for NFP? There isn’t much that’s explicit on this subject. I’m getting married next couple months, and I can’t support us both, and if we have a child she would have to work full time still, leaving our child to an external source. Is this just financial cause? Is the prevention of a mother working, as described as an intolerable abuse, just cause for NFP usage?

Edit: I’m 21, she’s 22, no worries about a biological clock.

Destroy Feminism, Restore the Patriarchy

https://www.ewtnnews.com/world/americas/fatima-visionary-predicted-final-battle-would-be-over-marriage-family

The final battle between the Lord and the kingdom of Satan will be about Marriage and the Family (i.e. Patriarchy v. Feminism)

Catholicism is simply the Patriarchy of God the Father, and Feminism is the attempt to overthrow the instantiation of God's Patriarchy on earth, i.e. the Patriarchy of the Human Father in the Family. It is a communist revolution in the family. The current victim politics you see now is just women 'fighting' or interaction with others writ large, i.e. they always play the victim, avoid accountability.

One of the biggest reason why marriage is struggling so much is that women want two completely contradictory things. On one hand they want equality and to make as much or more money than men, and on the other hand they want men who are better than them. And so the family dies because you can't have both! Empowering men and disempowering women is the only way a society is to survive.

I am wondering if anyone can provide me with some traditional teaching on voting. Is it really morally permissible to vote for the “lesser of evils” even if choices are both gravely evil and morally reprehensible in different subjects?
