Discernment issues concerning Catholicism

The Last Pope to be appointed? Don’t count on it! Brrm …that’s the sound of the claptrap machine revving up. I feel a book coming on.

Now that the present Pope is to quit, attention is focused on his successor, especially in the light of the alleged prophecies of a man known as “Saint” Malachy, which tells you all you need to know. Be wary lest you be sucked in by this claptrap. I put as much value on it as on the alleged “Mayan Prophecies.” When I first heard those my comment was: “Who cares what they predicted? They knew so much about the future that they are extinct…” The same goes for all those who claim to be seers. I have lived among such people, heard their philosophy, attended séances and so on. The one thing you can be certain of is: they do NOT know the future. Continue reading

Pedophile Protecting Pope to Resign

February 11, 2013

Pope Benedict XVI

Pope Benedict XVI

Joseph Radzinger, alias Benedict XVI, formerly known as “The Rottweiler” from his role as attack dog for his predecessor Carol Wojtyla alias John Paul II under whose auspices he issued the Criminale Solicitacciones instruction of Pope John XXIII has resigned. The uncovered instruction ordering the protection of pedophile sex criminal priests and nuns at the expense of not protecting the little children they were molesting and threatening the little victims with hell if they did not keep their being raped secret did not result in a RICO prosecution in the USA despite 177 out 179 American dioceses and their bishops and arch bishops being found liable for massive damages in court. The Bush Administration squashed civil litigations against Radzinger on political grounds that as a head of state the pope is immune from any judicial or prosecutorial proceedings by International convention. Similar efforts in the UK to have citizen’s arrests of Radzinger during his papal visit of 2010 were stopped by the British government, thus this gangster who orchestrated an international campaign to shield dangerous child molesters was never brought to justice for obstruction or aiding and abetting fugitives from justice. The systematic rape and sodomizing of small children by Roman Catholic clergy under the protection of the church hierarchy stemmed from Australia and New Zealand to the USA and Canada, to Great Britain, to Germany and beyond, but was found most prolific in Roman Catholic countries such as Ireland, Austria, French speaking Africa, and Brazil.

Criminales Solicitaciones

Translated from Latin means “Criminal Solicitation”

[Note: This was translated and commented on by someone named ‘Teeem’ and who referred to themselves as a “Recovering Catholic”. By their knowledge of this document and Roman Catholicism, it is quite possible this person is a former RC priest or very knowledgeable layman that served in the church to some capacity. I have also edited out a number of curse words and vulgarities surrounding the issue at hand. It is quite evident that this person translating the piece was/is not saved and very angry. The original posting was from March 2009 – BE ALERT!]

The headline reads ” For all Patriarchs, Archbishops, Bishops, and other Diocesan Ordinaries ‘even of the oriental rite’ —Instruction on the manner of proceeding in cases of solicitation—-Vatican Press, 1962″ Continue reading

Beware of Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing

by Mike Gendron

The Lord Jesus Christ warned His followers, “Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves (Matt. 7:15). The warning was important because Jesus later said to them: “Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; therefore be shrewd as serpents, and innocent as doves” (Matt. 10:16). The apostle Paul, with a deeply troubled spirit and in tears, penned a similar warning: “I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock” (Acts 20:29). Throughout church history these warnings concerning professing Christians who deceive even the elect have seldom been taken seriously. How can the church be so easily deceived? According to Webster’s Dictionary “deceive” means “to lead astray or to cause to accept as true or valid what is false or invalid.” Could it be the church has not only lost its ability to discern truth from error but also to discern wolves from sheep?

PAUL CULLEN, PATSY McGARRY and PADDY AGNEW

Bishop Magee in St Colman's Cathedral in the Diocese of Cloyne

THE CLOYNE REPORT ON THE BISHOP AND THE VATICAN: TOUGH NEW laws to force the disclosure of information on child sexual abuse are to be introduced in response to another damning report on the failure of the Catholic Church to protect child abuse victims.

The withholding of information about serious offences against a child will be made a criminal offence, Minister for Justice Alan Shatter announced yesterday following the publication of the report on the handling of sex abuse claims in the diocese of Cloyne.

Further measures, including a statutory child protection code, are to be announced by Minister for Children Frances Fitzgerald tomorrow.

The report found that the Bishop of Cloyne, John Magee, misled the minister for children by claiming the church’s guidelines for handling abuse cases were being fully complied with. It also found he falsely told the Health Service Executive (HSE) that allegations of abuse were being reported to gardaí.

In fact, two-thirds of complaints made between 1996 and 2008 were not reported to the Garda and no complaint was passed to the HSE during this period.

The report accuses the Vatican, through its opposition to the Irish bishops’ procedures for handling child sexual abuse, of giving comfort to dissenters within the church who did not want to implement them. In a secret letter to the bishops, Rome describes the 1996 rules as “merely a study document” and not official. Continue reading

The Ministry of Lies

by Patrick Heron
December 2010

There is something strangely missing in the debate presently raging about the Murphy Report. We hear legal debates based on Civic Law, Canon Law and Moral Law. But no one is referring  back to the Law of God or the simple words of Jesus himself in trying to put a context on all of this repulsive abuse that children have suffered at the hands of these so called Christian leaders.

It is”haggios” in the Greek New Testament , “kodesh” in Hebrew Tanakh, and “sanctus” in the Latin Vulgate. Call them “kadoshim” or call them “saints” , it still means “holy ones” and Scripture calls all of those redeemed and sanctified by Christ through The Holy Spirit “Saints”.

The Roman Catholic church however, has a different definition from the scriptural one. To the papacy it is elevating someone to the doctrinal authority of the Word of God by pronouncing them as “canon”. Much as Romanism teaches an unscriptural priesthood apart from the priesthood of all believers, it likewise teaches a separate status of sainthood apart from the sainthood of all believers taught in God’s Word.

Church of England Bishops Convert to Catholicism

LONDON (AP) — Five Church of England bishops announced Monday they are converting to Catholicism following an invitation to disaffected Anglicans from Pope Benedict XVI — the highest-profile defectors among conservatives opposed to gay bishops and female clergy.

The Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales said Bishop of Ebbsfleet Andrew Burnham, Bishop of Richborough Keith Newton, Bishop of Fulham John Broadhurst — as well as retired bishops Edwin Barnes and David Silk — have decided “to enter into full communion with the Catholic Church.”

The New Vatican Attack on Israel as an Occupation of Biblical Lands

So what else should be expected from a pope who in his youth wore a swastika, the uniform of a Nazi, and fought for Hitler and the Third Reich, who now heads the same church that perpetrated the Inquisitions, and who operates from the same Vatican that shielded Nazi war criminals from justice with its infamous “Rat Lines”? When has the apostate Church of Rome ever NOT hated Jews? The latest Vatican action simply promulgates and continues their long, evil history. So what else should be expected from a harlot church who fundamentally rejects the Word of God? It stands to reason that if Rome rejects the Bible it will reject that the Scripture teaches the biblical land is the land of Israel, not an Islamic-Arab, redefined Palestine. Continue reading
