Obedience has limits, even regarding legitimate authority. But here we are talking of illegitimate authority, toward which unjust acts are owed DISOBEDIENCE. God gave you a rational intellect to sort these things out. “Go and relate to John what you have heard and seen.”

Disobedience to Laws Enacted Contrary to Reason Is ‘Effectual Barrier’ Against Tyranny
December 1, 2021 Edward Pentin
“The highest duty is to respect authority, and obediently to submit to just law; and by this the members of a community are effectually protected from the wrongdoing of evil men. Lawful power is from God, and “he that resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God” {Rom. 13:2); wherefore, obedience is greatly ennobled when subjected to an authority which is the most just and supreme of all.
But where the power to command is wanting, or where a law is enacted contrary to reason, or to the eternal law, or to some ordinance of God, obedience is unlawful, lest, while obeying man, we become disobedient to God.
Thus, an effectual barrier being opposed to tyranny, the authority in the State will not have all its own way, but the interests and rights of all will be safeguarded—the rights of individuals, of domestic society and of all the members of the commonwealth; all being free to live according to law and right reason; and in this, as We have shown, true liberty really consists.”
From Pope Leo XIII’s 1888 encyclical Libertas Praestantissimum.

Francis Plans Bloodbath: Roman Rite Communities Will Be FORCED Into Novus Ordo
Michael Charlier writes on Summorum-Pontificum.de (30 November) that measures will be announced before the end of 2021 to force all Roman Rite communities into the Novus Ordo.
Charlier has published accurate reports and predictions in the past. Francis wants to “return” the Roman Rite communities “to the single mode of celebration” of the New Pseudo-Rite, before publishing regulations for Traditionis Custodes.
According to Charlier, papal delegates will be sent to these communities. Unlike commissioners, they won’t replace existing superiors but will be their superiors. Their mandate is “to reconcile” their communities “with the spirit of the Council”.
As a first step, presiding the Eucharist will be ordered to totally replace the celebration of Mass so that these priests can subsequently be integrated into Novus Ordo pastoral work.
The public celebration of Mass, which is still permitted for the time being, will be entrusted only to Novus Ordo priests who are faithful to the failed Council. Roman Rite priests will only be allowed to celebrate Mass internally and in exceptional cases. The administration of the other sacraments will be forbidden.
The papal delegates are not authorised to be flexible and to negotiate with the communities. Rigidity, legalism and refusal of dialogue will reign.
Charlier assumes that the “papal delegates” will succeed in subduing “parts and probably majorities of the leadership of some communities” but not a “large majority” of the members, thus “the communities will break up – which may well be in the spirit of Francis’ strategy.”

If Mr. Charlier is correct, hopefully the Ecclesia Dei and traditional minded diocesan priests will make a mass exodus to the SSPX. It will require a lot of humility for the FSSP priests especially, but that would be a good thing. Also, hopefully, the SSPX will publicly declare their belief that Bergoglio is an antipope and bind themselves to Rome via the true Vicar of Christ on earth Pope Benedict. Too optimistic? I hope not.
While on the subject of the SSPX, I’ve been scanning some older articles on Tradition in Action website and they in a very charitable way had some discouraging claims against Abp. Levebvre, saying he offered the NO Mass for some time, like almost a year? Anyone know if there is any truth to this? I’ve just recently learned of TIA from the documentary on Our Lady of Good Success.
SSPX is in the situation they are in (lost moral compass on covid shots) because of their insistence that Francis is the Vicar of Christ on Earth, so you see how that goes for you.
No, Archbishop Lefebvre never offered the NO Mass. You should steer clear of TIA – they are notorious liars and hate the SSPX. Truly wolves in sheep’s clothing and are fooling a lot of would be traditionalists.
They refuse to call Our Lady by the name she requested – Buen Suceso – which does not translate to “good success” but “good event”. The nuns at the Conceptionist convent where the apparitions occurred have asked that everyone use the proper title as it is crucial to the understanding of the message given to Mother Mariana by Our Lady. The good event is the Purification and subsequent Restoration of the Church.
For more information do a you tube search for the talks that Fr. Purdy, fsspx gave on Our Lady of Buen Suceso.
Thank you Catherine. I will search Fr. Purdy.
TIA also features articles by Prof. Plinio Correa de Oliviera who was controversial due to his cultish group in Brazil. TIA has some good news and articles but take them with a grain of salt.
Thanks for the Fr. Purdy suggestion. I’ve listened to two of his teachings on Our Lady of Buen Suceso….very edifying and informative. I’ll never call it Good Success again. ☺️
It was the whole “pachamama” thing that really “sealed the deal” for me with regards to the question, “Is this guy Pope or not?”
A lot of these groups being “targeted” will all say “Francis is the Pope” without hesitation. They’ll soon have to make a stand. I predict almost all of them will cave eventually.
The “recognize and resist” position doesn’t work, for proof, try to apply that same logic to the Blessed Mother:
“I recognize Mary as the Blessed Mother, All generations will call her Blessed, The Church has approved many apparitions of Her down through the centuries, and I think that one of the best gifts the Lord can give us is His Mother! But when She tells me to Pray the Rosary, to go to Mass, make Confessions, and do Penance for sinners, I will resist that, I won’t do any of that! That’s Papist idolatry, and vain and repetitive prayers! Almost as bad a Christmas!” — That’s what the “recognize and resist” crowd sounds like to my ears at least…
Francis presided over the worship and veneration of a demon. NONE of the “Bad Popes” from history ever did that! With that one act, he proved every Jack Chick tract about the Catholic Church true, and set back evangelization efforts 100 years. He welcomed a lot of evil into the world with that. He rolled out the red carpet for it with that act.
The Pope is supposed to be a “Rock” I don’t think it is any accident that the first Pope St. Peter was martyred at Rome. St. Augustine wrote that Vatican hill got its name from the cries of the unwanted babies the pagan Romans left to die there. (In Classical Latin V makes a W sound, so it “Wahhh”-tican.) You can’t have such a concentration of such horrible sin in one location without some residual spiritual effect on the spot. The Pope is supposed to be “The Rock” that plugs up that hole. Right now I fear that hole is wide open, and that explains why the world is in the shape it is.
Hey bergoglio, we have the Mass of the Ages here in our catacomb any time we want. The remnant will survive in their obedience to God. Trying to make our Advent this year dark, will not work. It is bright even though we are all suffering some kind of repercussion from this scamdemic. The dark of night will succumb to the light of day, we will live in the light, Grandma and I.
God Bless us one and all today.
This Mario guy quacks and looks like a false prophet. If he is the false prophet he will gather all Catholics in one rite of mass and then transform it into the Novus Absordo, the abomination of desolation. With all the grace gone the antichrist will have an easy time conquering the world,
I agree T, but no need to use the future tense.
I have my own reasons for thinking the Novus Ordo still has the real presence. I’ve been carefully studying this man for years. I believe he might be the false prophet many mystics have warned about. Mass will go underground and he will build the one world church where communion is just a cookie–or word, poisons the masses who are deceived.
