Until He Comes - A Traditional Catholic End Times Thriller.
The tradition was always true. The Mass was always the center. The Rosary was always a weapon. A series built for the Catholics who never stopped believing it — and for everyone else brave enough to find out why.

If you tolerate Islam, Islam will grow.
When Islam grows, it will not tolerate you.
If you agree with me, repost this!

Apparently posting about Mama Mary makes some people very angry. That won’t stop me. Mary is the Mother of God, blessed among women, and our Queen and Mother 🩵

The Cardinal would have failed my first year high school theology class, ‘Fundamentals of the Faith.’
LATEST: Cardinal Vesco says the Catholic Church is “not there to convert”
The Archbishop of Algiers said: “We are the Church of this people. Not a proselytising Church, not a Church that is there to convert, but a Church that aspires to be one of the components of this people.”
He called proselytism “poison” because it treats another person’s religion as false, and argued Christians should choose fraternity over seeing themselves as a “besieged fortress.”

No. People are (rightly) upset because you said “SSPX literally is the ONE group we can be SURE is in HELL” (Emphasis added.) That is an outright diabolical statement; a full-blown embrace of despair of salvation for an entire group of people – a statement so evil that merely asserting it (publicly, no less!) is itself a mortal sin. Why? Because you just directed the faithful everywhere to not even bother praying for the repose of the souls of SSPXers who die. (Yes, that’s what you did. You said we can be SURE they are in HELL. And it would be materially heretical to pray for the repose of the soul of someone you are somehow SURE is in hell.) That is an immense scandal. And it’s 100% on you; doubly (triply, rather; quadruply) because instead of retracting it, you continue defending it.
Back to reality: The vast majority of people on earth are outside of the Church. Yet that’s just ONE requirement for salvation. Here’s another: dying without a single mortal sin remaining on your soul. The vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, vast, VAST majority of people on earth presently lack that requirement. Yet you are acting as if CCC 846 (Lumen Gentium 14) is the one and only piece of Magisterium we have on what precludes entry into Heaven. In fact, it’s one of countless. For example, every single Church teaching on what acts (commission or omission) constitute grave moral matters are themselves teachings on who cannot go to Heaven.
Therefore, what remains is continuing to do everything we can to draw souls back into God’s grace while they are alive — whether it is schism, adultery, murder, heresy, or whatever else that is preventing them from being in the Grace of God — while continuing to hope for their salvation (on account of God’s incredible outpouring of mercy at the moment of death; see St. Faustina) even if we cannot succeed in that. We hope they are saved, we hope they are at least in Purgatory, and therefore we pray for them. ALWAYS. Because we are NEVER “sure” that anyone is in Hell, except in those exceedingly rare circumstances wherein we have some Divine revelation indicating that they are (e.g. Judas). Yet here you are claiming that there are hundreds of thousands of people (most of whom love God and their neighbor dearly and are remarkably devoted to Jesus Christ) who we can be SURE are in HELL if they were to die today. The very Popes you claim to be a superlative “Respecter” of would be absolutely ashamed of this statement you are making and defending.

Quas Primas wasn't a devotional suggestion. Pius XI said Christ reigns over nations, not just hearts.
Christ is King.

Friends, as Catholics, we have received an invitation from God the Father to come to the wedding banquet of his Son—to come to Mass and to share in the divine life.
And yet we know, through so many studies on church attendance, that countless Catholics say no to this invitation. This is the central tragedy of the spiritual life: receiving the invitation of the king and saying no.
Say yes this weekend. Go to Mass!

WATCH: Fr. Murr reveals Pope Leo is changing the Church from within.
“Today all of this is repeating itself. After the resignation of Pope Benedict — which was forced, forced by men inside the Vatican — they began remaking the episcopate across the whole world. The new bishops: all liberals. And who was the last man in charge of the Congregation for Bishops? Robert Prevost of Chicago, Cardinal Prevost, who became Pope Leo, the new Pope.”
This interview is incredible. Neal McDonough is an example for us all.

Noah’s Ark resting place “100% confirmed” after 4,300 years, following the discovery of an astonishing “man-made” structure deep underground.
Researchers are beginning to drill near Mount Ararat where the Ark is long believed to be buried.

The relic of Blessed Fulton Sheen was just presented at the Beatification Ceremony in St. Louis. It is the Archbishop’s jawbone. Fulton Sheen, Pray for us.

As I learned it, and still recite: Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with you; blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
This is fascinating. They found Noah's Ark, or believe they have. What else from the Genesis account could actually be true? If that is true, what else in the Bible is true? Repent, go to Mass, partake in the Eucharist in a state of grace.

Scripture for Today:
Memorial of Saint Pius of Pietrelcina, Priest
Lectionary: 451
Reading 1
Proverbs 30:5-9
Every word of God is tested;
he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.
Add nothing to his words,
lest he reprove you, and you will be exposed as a deceiver.
Two things I ask of you,
deny them not to me before I die:
Put falsehood and lying far from me,
give me neither poverty nor riches;
provide me only with the food I need;
Lest, being full, I deny you,
saying, "Who is the LORD?"
Or, being in want, I steal,
and profane the name of my God.
Responsorial Psalm
Psalm 119:29, 72, 89, 101, 104, 163
R. (105) Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
Remove from me the way of falsehood,
and favor me with your law.
R. Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
The law of your mouth is to me more precious
than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
R. Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
Your word, O LORD, endures forever;
it is firm as the heavens.
R. Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
From every evil way I withhold my feet,
that I may keep your words.
R. Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
Through your precepts I gain discernment;
therefore I hate every false way.
R. Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
Falsehood I hate and abhor;
your law I love.
R. Your word, O Lord, is a lamp for my feet.
Alleluia
Mark 1:15
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
The Kingdom of God is at hand;
repent and believe in the Gospel.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Gospel
Luke 9:1-6
Jesus summoned the Twelve and gave them power and authority
over all demons and to cure diseases,
and he sent them to proclaim the Kingdom of God
and to heal the sick.
He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey,
neither walking stick, nor sack, nor food, nor money,
and let no one take a second tunic.
Whatever house you enter, stay there and leave from there.
And as for those who do not welcome you,
when you leave that town,
shake the dust from your feet in testimony against them."
Then they set out and went from village to village
proclaiming the Good News and curing diseases everywhere.

Fruits of Vatican II: celebrating a document that bows down to every fake religion on earth, written by a homosexual who left the Catholic priesthood and was vehemently opposed to converting the Jews.
JUST IN: Vatican publishes document marking 60yrs of Nostra Aetate
Urges renewed ecumenical efforts to build “a fraternal society capable of accepting differences.”
Adds that “To achieve this goal, a genuine shift in mindset is necessary: abandoning the logic of defensiveness, hostility, or conquest in order to adopt an attitude that is open, benevolent, and courageous”
Rejects idea of “founding one great world religion in which all beliefs are flattened.”
Says that this “must be excluded out of respect for oneself and for other”

All I know is this, if homosexuality is made "no longer a sin" by some decree, even though such a decree would be considered unlawful by God's law, it would still split the Church. That's a red line for a lot of Catholics (myself included) and it would result in more SSPX-style splinter groups, coupled by a rapid reduction in Church membership from people leaving for SSPX, Orthodoxy and some even going Evangelical. Having spent some time in the Anglican Communion before becoming Catholic, and then helping to found an Ordinariate parish, I can testify this is a deal-breaker for most Christians. It doesn't matter what their tradition or doctrine is. Nothing kills a church faster than the LGBTQ agenda.

Please pray for this man and his family as well.
I am begging for prayers for my dear friend, Dr. Mike Welker. He has very aggressive brain cancer. Please pray for his healing and for strength and consolation for his wife, Cindy, and for their children and grandchildren. Mike is a professor of economics at Franciscan University and is a generous and true friend in Christ.
