Obedience to people rather than to God
Lvov (Ukraine), 9 November 2011
In 1986, Pope John Paul II organized the first syncretistic meeting in Assisi. At that time, although it was not available to the public, much of the clergy was in opposition because they disagreed with the heretical step of the Pope. The event was deliberately explained to the public as an effort towards peace and no one could say that it was actually destruction of the Catholic faith. The year 1986 witnessed a breakthrough – demonism infiltrated the Church, whereafter every year the process of a change of the thinking in the Church went on through organization of other syncretistic meetings. At the same time, in the field of theology, the authority of the Scripture was degraded through historical-critical theology which called into question its Divine inspiration. Meanwhile, the process of questioning the Divinity of Christ and of all the fundamental truths of the faith proceeded.
The second breakthrough in the process of mass apostasy within the Catholic Church was beatification of John Paul II who had blazed a trail of heresy. Owing to the criminal step of beatification, Pope Benedict XVI ceased to be the Head of the Church and the visible Vicar of Christ on earth. By beatification of an apostate he elevated the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of Antichrist – to the altar of the Church and brought down a curse upon all those who form spiritual unity with him.
The third breakthrough step and in actual fact canonization of the spirit of Antichrist – the spirit of New Age – in the Church was a meeting in Assisi and in the Vatican on 26-28 October 2011. The ex-Pope created unity with pagan representatives who worship demons.
In what situation does a common Catholic believer find himself today? The Pope abused his supreme authority for a betrayal of Christ and official, albeit hidden, introduction of an antichristian spirit and system into the Church. He thus ceased to be a Pope, a Catholic, and even a Christian in the eyes of God. However, he is purposefully retained in office so that his betrayal and a new apostatical path might create an impression of Church doctrine and be sheltered by the supreme authority. Similarly, the whole Catholic hierarchy, formed by the new logic of Assisi for 25 years and raised on historical-critical theology, has betrayed Christ and the saving faith. The hierarchical structure of the Church has thus become a monopoly of the spirit of antichrist. Such is the reality today. That was why orthodoxy began to be persecuted in the Church as dangerous fundamentalism, labelled as primitive fanaticism, a schism, and even as an attack on the “Holy Father”.
Annas, Caiaphas and all the Sanhedrin acted before the people as representatives of divine authority in whose hands were the means to salvation. Thus they kept people in fear and obedience. To oppose them meant to stand against God. Anyone who dared to do so was branded as a God-condemned criminal. Those who abused their authority condemned and crucified the very Son of God, our Lord Jesus Christ.
Those who act as representatives of divine authority today, even though they have betrayed God, hold the power by holding the church offices, and the believers, whose faith is immediately connected with obedience to authority, thus get under the sway of traitors of Christ and His Gospel. An inextricable dilemma emerges. The believers want to be saved and so they adhere to the hierarchy. But this hierarchy has betrayed and is on the broad way leading to destruction.
The priests who have gone through the formation of historical-critical theology and of the spirit of Assisi gradually inculcate this officially sanctioned apostasy in the common believers. For this purpose they abuse their authority and obedience of the believers. The clergy does not lead the Catholics to the essence of the faith, that is, to personal conversion, the practical following of Christ and the need to testify about Him to the world. Most Catholics are not converted nor are they rooted in Christ, wherefore they do not distinguish the Spirit of Christ from the spirit of Antichrist. The hierarchy is not interested in their conversion because they would then get out of its heretical domination. For the unconverted Catholics the norm is neither the Scripture, nor the apostolic and ecclesiastical tradition, but just the fluid of ecclesiastical authority. They fear to disrupt it because they have had a fixed idea instilled into them that it is the biggest sin for which they will suffer punishment. If someone points out the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of Antichrist – and the crime of the two Popes, one is hypocritically ridiculed: “Are you perhaps wiser than the Holy Father?” If any of the Catholic believers expresses doubts about the new trend in the Church, which is against the nature of the Scripture and Tradition, they artfully persuade him that everything is in order and conclude with a convincing slogan: “The Holy See cannot be wrong.”
How to bring those deceived Catholics, who owing to their religious feeling are held under the sway of the apostatical Church structure, back to the path of salvation? It is almost impossible. We face an absurd situation: for fear lest they should get outside the Church structure, they adhere to the apostatical hierarchy which, however, is expelled from the Church – the Mystical Body of Christ – and is under God’s anathema – curse (Gal 1:8-9). But the Catholic faithful do not believe this reality of excommunication since a person in episcopal vestment is more trustworthy for them than the truths of the Catholic faith which an unconverted Catholic believes and accepts only academically. Unconverted people do not believe God and His Word ingenuously, because until they are born anew their personal faith is substituted by a faith in the Church structure. That is why they are constantly in fear lest they should come into conflict with the Church apostates because of orthodoxy. But today these Church apostates have the spirit of the apostle Judas.
When Jesus healed the man blind from birth, He did it in an atmosphere that was very similar to the current situation in the Church. His parents knew the truth that their son had been born blind and that Jesus made an unheard-of miracle. He opened the eyes of a man blind from birth. Under normal circumstances, this joyous news would have filled them with a desire to share their joy with everyone. However, as they perceived that the church system would immediately cast them out if they sided with Jesus, they were totally paralyzed by fear. Something abnormal takes place. The parents would have been happier if their son had not been healed, only to avoid the pressure on the part of the apostatical hierarchy. The mere admitting of the truth entails persecution and destruction by this system.
It is similar even today. One is very well aware that to stand up for Christ and for the essence of the faith means to stand against everything that was fostered as a virtue from one’s childhood: respect for authority, obedience, respect for hierarchy, so-called loyalty to the Church and to the Holy See. If a believer comes to see things in their context and understand that accepting Christ’s truth, though in one aspect only, sets him in opposition to the whole apostatical Church colossus, he gets frightened that he does not have the strength to stand against it. In addition, if he is not converted and does not have a living biblical and prayer community, he does not even have the opportunity to offer resistance to the apostatical and unlawfully ruling hierarchy. Internal disunity holds him in false submission to heresy, because he can by no means oppose the Church authority. He finds himself at a deadlock: If he accepts the truth, his hitherto religious lifestyle on which his faith was dependent will be ruined, and he cannot bear it. The opinion of the neighbours also plays an important role. He does not want the people to think about him that he betrayed the faith to which he had been faithful for all his life. Moreover, he is unable to live in pure faith, in full dependence on God alone, because nowadays it means to deny the whole hierarchical system of the Church, including the last two apostate Popes, which a common Catholic believer finds inadmissible. He tries to convince himself that those who tell him the painful truth are mistaken. He perceives that this truth leads him to a necessary change. He is to lose something that was stable and does not know what to do next, so he is afraid of the change. He is to leave the apostatical structure but sees that the orthodox Church has only few centres and wherever there is one, its faithful are defamed and persecuted. And so, just like the parents of the man blind from birth he does not have the courage to follow the living Jesus. Therefore he chooses the second option – he closes his eyes, ears and heart to the truth, escapes from it and does not want to accept it at any price. It is clear to him: If I admit that this hierarchy has embraced idolatry in Assisi and covered up such serious crimes as paedophilia, I have to admit that it has lost the Spirit of God. The sin of abominable impurity is the fruit of heresies and of the spirit of Assisi – idolatry! However, if I accept this truth, I will also have to admit the serious consequence of heresies, that means, anathema proclaimed in God’s Word. And when I admit this truth, I will have to accept the fact that this hierarchy is in apostasy and celebrates the liturgies invalidly. But I do not want to accept this because I prefer a churchy lifestyle in which I can deceive myself and live my own life without getting into conflicts or suffering persecution and contempt for the sake of the living Jesus.
The false instinct of self-preservation makes such a Catholic want to believe the lie that those who tell him the truth cannot be right because they stand against the majority which is in power. He starts to accept as a matter of fact the “official” statements made by apostates who systematically and mercilessly denigrate the orthodox believers as a dangerous sect. Identifying with their lies, he joins this treacherous hierarchy on their path to destruction.
The same principle of abuse of authority and office which began to operate in the Church has now started to operate in the world too.
State government, which should protect the nation, passes such laws that lead to self-destruction of the nation. Physicians, who should protect life, become murderers by performing euthanasia, infectious vaccination, and by mutilating and killing children for the purpose of obtaining organs. This process started in medicine with the adoption of the delusion of homoeopathy with an occult background, which has a negative effect on the human mind and spirit.
Instead of providing children with good education, many teachers now abuse their authority for children’s demoralization directly in the lessons – sexual antieducation, courses of tolerance, gender schizophrenia.
Lawyers promote antilaws and crime instead of right and justice.
Culture, nowadays “pseudo culture”, is an instrument of demoralization and devastation of society rather than of its enhancement. International organizations that had previously been guarantors of justice, human rights, liberties and national values now concentrate on promotion of the international crime of so-called reduction – in other words, genocide of humanity. A lever to achieve a change in thinking was integration of the homosexual perversion in all spheres of public life. The Church neglected to punish this perversion in the form of paedophilia among the clergy and, on the contrary, covered it up (USA, Ireland, Australia…).
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops has issued a “study” this year in which it has lowered the age limit of paedophilia to 10. No state laws have ever committed such atrocities against children.
The responsibility for these crimes of the American episcopate falls fully on the Vatican leadership. This mass betrayal of Christ and the Church is the fruit of the heresy of historical-critical theology and of the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of Antichrist. Every Catholic believer who wants to be saved must separate himself from the spirit of apostasy which has been embraced by the apostatical hierarchy along with the last two Popes. These two Popes with the spirit of Assisi are in opposition to all the Popes and, above all, to Christ Himself!
