SOS to the Slovak Catholics
Lvov (Ukraine), 11 May 2011
Dear Catholic faithful,
the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate is turning to You in this historic moment. At present, the spiritual and physical future of Slovakia is being decided. Western Catholic Church is experiencing a great spiritual crisis and moral decay. During the Pope’s visit to the U.S. or Australia, no sooner did he deplane than he apologized for paedophiliac scandals caused by priests and bishops. 160,000 Catholics struck off their names from the Church in Germany last year and 60,000 in Austria. Jehovah’s Witnesses and other sects, catch mainly lukewarm Catholics in masses. In 2009, Ireland was about to decide for or against the enactment of the so-called Lisbon Treaty which has put on the first place propaganda of homosexuality. Irish Bishop N.Treanor publicly lied that the LT was allegedly in conformity with God’s law, and thus he manipulated the public. He achieved promotion of the Lisbon Treaty in the whole Europe. Many Church hierarchs are spiritually blind or even commit sin against the Holy Spirit, so they are not able to see a catastrophic situation in the world and the Church. Instead of being remorse of the world and pointing the right way, they are leading masses of sheep entrusted to the broad way of perdition. Majority of bishops and false prophets – liberal theologians – has opened to the historical-critical theology, which denies the inspiration of the Holy Scripture, the Divinity of Christ, all the miracles in the Holy Scripture and Christ’s real and historical resurrection. The so-called spirit of Assisi, which was implanted to the Church by John Paul II, casts out the Holy Spirit from the Church and has opened the door to the spirit of antichrist. Assisi created the public opinion that faith in the redemptive death of our Lord Jesus Christ and respect for demons are equivalent paths to salvation. The spirit of Assisi introduces new thinking which denies the essence of the Gospel. It puts an end to true mission and begins an antimission inside the very Church. John Paul II made apostatical gestures that reflect his internal apostasy. He promoted them up to his death and did not revoke them. This is a loss of faith and adoption of a new anti-Gospel teaching:
1) he allowed a sacral prostitute to publicly put on his forehead a consecrating demonic mark of the god Shiva.
2) during the syncretistic meeting of all religions in Assisi he let all crosses be removed from churches (those which could not be removed were covered) and let pagans worship demons through their idolatrous ceremonies in these churches.
3) in the temple in Assisi he allowed the cross to be removed from the tabernacle and a statue of Buddha to be placed there and worshipped by pagans,
4) as a token of respect he publicly kissed the Koran, which denies the Divinity of Christ,
5) in his speech to the representatives of all pagan religions he publicly asserted that the pagan religions give forgiveness, peace and love. This is a lie and blasphemy. Forgiveness of sins is only through the saving faith which Abraham had before he was circumcised (cf. Rom 4:1ff). The faith of Abraham is in sharp contrast with reverence for demons in Hinduism, Tibetan Lamaism, Indian and African shamanism and the current New Age movement.
We confess and believe in the Office of St. Peter, the papacy. Benedict XVI, however, abused it when he canonized the spirit of antichrist. Peter the first Pope and any other Pope throughout the Church’s history, the whole Scripture, all the martyrs, prophets and saints and the whole true Church of Christ contradict the apostatical gesture of Benedict XVI. What is true then? The Word of God, tradition of the apostles, martyrs and saints, or false syncretism with the spirit of antichrist which casts out the Holy Spirit from the official Church? This Church was represented by Benedict XVI until 1 May 2011. Excommunication by God – anathema – either falls upon Benedict XVI and the apostatical hierarchy in accordance with Gal 1:8-9, or it falls upon the orthodox Church with orthodox Popes existing throughout 2000 years. “What communion has light with darkness?! And what accord has Christ with Belial?!” (2Cor 6:14b-15). For the sake of protection and preservation of the office of St. Peter, every Catholic must make a resolute step and separate from the apostate Pope. All from among the bishops, priests or believers who will not separate from the apostate Benedict will remain under God’s curse – anathema.
Every bishop and priest in Slovakia faces a choice. Either he will renounce the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – by the feast of Pentecost and stop mentioning the name of the apostate Pope during Holy Mass, or he will celebrate the Mass invalidly. As from 13 June 2011, the Liturgy celebrated by apostate bishops and priests is no longer valid. It will be a mere pious performance and mockery of Christ crucified.
The spirit of apostasy has over 25 years been destroying the saving faith and paralyzing the bleeding Christ’s Church. A common Catholic believer in Slovakia cannot comprehend this true diagnosis of the Church and the grievous fault of John Paul II for bringing in another gospel which no longer leads to salvation. The greatest tragedy in the history of the Church is 1 May 2011. On this day, by false beatification, Pope Benedict XVI:
a) de facto excommunicated his predecessor.
b) elevated the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – to the altar and hence excluded himself from the Church.
c) dragged the whole Catholic Church into apostasy and cast out the Holy Spirit from the Church.
As from 1 May 2011, the Church is in a sedes vacantis state. The Papal See is vacant; the Pope – an apostate – now occupies the papal office illegally. Therefore, every bishop and every priest is obliged no later than the feast of Pentecost (12 June 2011) to publicly renounce the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – and to stop mentioning the name of the apostate Pope in the Liturgy. Unless a bishop or priest does so, he makes it manifest that he remains in unity with the spirit of antichrist and as from 13 June 2011, he is publicly excluded from the Church and as an apostate celebrates Holy Mass invalidly. The Mass celebrated by him is then a mere pious spectacle and an insult to our Saviour.
In recent years, the Church hierarchy has been silent on all crimes. By means of lies and half-truths it has deceived the common faithful and dragged them to a broad way leading to eternal perdition.
A gay-pride parade is going to take place in Slovakia on 4 June 2011. Even a child knows that a gay-pride is a Trojan horse used to introduce gay marriage, gay adoption of children etc. in all nations of Europe.
What is the reaction of the Church hierarchy in Slovakia? Only a small group of brave Catholics demonstrated with banners against a gay-pride last year. The spokesman of the Conference of the Bishops of Slovakia (KBS) vehemently condemned these defenders of moral and spiritual values. By pious rhetoric and by quoting the Catechism on so-called tolerance and supposed discrimination he paralyzed whatever resistance of the Catholic believers to moral devastation of the Slovak nation. KBS thus betrayed Christ, the Church as well as the nation.
The April 2011 Catholic demonstration against a gay-pride was likewise boycotted by the Church hierarchy.
On 5 May 2011, gay marriage and gay adoption of children was legalized in Brazil. One of the members of the Bishops’ Conference in Brazil declared that legalization of homosexuality is a matter of politics and not of the Church. He said: “The Church will by no means crusade against introduction of homosexuality.” This is a manifest spirit of blindness and betrayal of Christ and of the Church. Practice has shown recently that KBS is of the same spirit.
The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate hereby appeals to the Conference of the Bishops of Slovakia (KBS) before the whole Slovak nation to call upon all Catholics of Slovakia in a pastoral letter on Sunday 22 May 2011 to voice a protest against gay-dictatorship. They should choose the most appropriate time and place for a demonstration – best on 28 May 2011 in Bratislava. If the Slovak nation remains passive owing to a betrayal on the part of the Church hierarchy, the curse will pass from the fallen-away hierarchy on the people. God’s Word clearly terms homosexuality an abomination (Lev 18:22) and shows that fire was sent down from heaven on Sodom and Gomorrah as a punishment (Gen 18-19). God’s Word gives this manifest example to serve as a warning to all nations and for all times (Jude 7). If the bishops of Slovakia point to the pernicious consequences of homosexuality, including the spread of AIDS and the danger of eternal damnation, the demonstration in Bratislava on Saturday 28 May 2011 will surely be attended by a quarter of a million peaceful demonstrators at the least. The political structures of Slovakia will have to respond to the will of the people.
A positive example is Lithuania. It has passed a law these days which imposes a penalty in the amount of
$ 430-1290 for public promotion of homosexuality.
Dear bishops of Slovakia, wake up from the spiritual sleep, break with the spirit of betrayal and show true repentance. The first step is to stand resolutely in defence of moral and spiritual values in a fight against homosexual perversion and to call upon the entire nation in a pastoral letter to attend a peaceful demonstration in Bratislava on 28 May 2011. Your second step of true repentance and faithfulness to Christ to save the papal office and the bleeding Church in Slovakia will be the following: Let every bishop in his diocese clearly explain in a pastoral letter the tragedy of apostasy which Benedict XVI has brought down on himself and on the whole Church. Call upon every priest to renounce the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – and to stop mentioning the name of the apostate Pope in the Liturgy until the day when an orthodox Pope is elected. Unless You do so, on 12 June 2011, on the feast of Pentecost, God will remove the continual sacrifice from all bishops and priests of Slovakia who will remain in unity with the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist. From that time on, bishops and priests will no longer celebrate the Liturgy validly; their Liturgy will be a mere performance and mockery of Christ’s sacrifice on the cross. Every priest is obliged in conscience to obey God rather than traitors of Christ and of the Church. Liturgy will be celebrated validly only by those priests who will dissociate themselves from the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist – even at the price of persecution by apostates. These faithful priests, even at the price of the catacombs, will represent true and restored Church. These priests will be obliged to separate from those bishops who will not have broken with the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist.
Dear bishops, whatever sympathies with the apostate Popes John Paul II or Benedict XVI must not go against Jesus Christ and His Church. If You become traitors of Christ and persist in Your betrayal, both You and the priests united with You will be eternally condemned. You will thus draw down the heaviest curse on the Slovak people, for which You shall take responsibility and punishment for all eternity!
The Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate prays that there would be at least one courageous true-Catholic bishop who would separate from the spirit of Assisi – the spirit of antichrist, stop mentioning the name of the apostate Pope in the Liturgy and call upon the priests of his diocese to follow his example. This bishop will set a precedent not only for the Slovak nation but for the whole Western Catholic Church. Therefore we call upon all sincere Catholics in Slovakia to respond to the information from this letter and to make a net of day-and-night prayer-guards until the feast of Pentecost. Every Catholic believer shall pray for one hour every day for the diocesan bishop and for restoration of the Catholic Church in Slovakia. We also ask the believers to encourage their bishops through personal letters to make this step of faithfulness to Jesus Christ for the sake of restoration of the Catholic Church in Slovakia and restoration of the papacy.
The betrayal committed by Benedict XVI is a severe blow to both the Church and papacy. We believe that through true repentance this greatest evil will eventually serve the purpose of restoration of the Catholic Church! If only Slovakia could become the model for restoration of the whole Church!
Praying for all the Catholics as well as bishops and priests in Slovakia,
