Mary is not the Co-Redeemer [video]

Necessity of Baptism

Subject: Interesting Infant Baptism Story

Brothers,

Thank you for defending the true Catholic faith. I have been reading a book about Jeanne D'Arc's trial, called Jeanne D'Arc Maid of Orleans Deliverer of France, edited T. Douglas Murray. I thought you might find this interesting. Below is the excerpt from the book where Jeanne was questioned about praying for an infant who returned to life after three days, was immediately baptized and then buried.

From page 52:

"How old was the child you visited at Lagny?"

"The child was three days old. It was brought before the image of Our Lady. They told me that the young girls of the village were before this image, and that I might wish to go also and pray God and Our Lady to give life to this infant. I went and prayed with them. At last, life returned to the child, who yawned three times, and was then baptized; soon after, it died, and was buried in consecrated ground. It was three days, they said, since life had departed from the child; it was as black as my coat; when it yawned, the colour began to return to it. I was with the other young girls, praying and kneeling before our Lady."

"Did they not say in the village that it was done through you, and at your prayer?"

"I did not inquire about it."

Interesting

MHFM: We thought this was a very interesting and short interview (approximately five minutes) about the new Health Care law, and the impact it will have if it is not struck down by the Supreme Court. The most important part begins at the 2:52 mark. We realize that the person speaking is a warmonger, but she makes some good points in this interview.

Perhaps the key point is 1) if essentially no one, including the people who “passed” it, even read the new Health Care bill (a fact); and 2) the bill is not only 2500 pages, but will require tens of thousands of more pages of regulations to be implemented (pages and regulations which no one, including those implementing the new rules, will read). As a result, what will undoubtedly happen is this: the people who are implementing the new rules will simply make up the rules as they go along, since the bill and its accompanying regulations will not be read and cannot be understood, let alone implemented precisely. Moreover, the citizens and businesses will never know if they are in compliance with the new law and its regulations (which bind under serious penalties), since no one knows what the new law is, having not read it combined with the fact that it’s written in incomprehensible gobbledygook. Thus, the end result will undoubtedly be that the person in authority will arbitrarily decide who is in violation of the gargantuan law and who is not.

More Confirmation

MHFM: This is a quote from an article about testimony from the Jerry Sandusky trial. One of the victims of the sicko Sandusky testified that, “he [the victim] never told Sandusky to stop.” He also said that he “never told his grandmother.” The victim also could have alerted others about Sandusky and extricated himself from the situation.

This provides more confirmation of what we pointed out in the video below; namely, that in almost every case the victims of sexual abuse are also guilty of mortal sin, even if the possessed monsters instigating the abuse are more guilty.

Comment

Dear MHFM,

Thank you for making the video that charitably corrects that unfortunate heretic, for misappropriating a title to Mother Mary…

Clark…

Comment

Our Lady is the greatest creature every created by God {Immaculate}, yet just a created being, where God is UnCreated, he is the Creator and Redeemer… As the other emailers have stated, the greatest title that Our Lady was given is, "The Mother of God" all Her glory and privileges, given by God, emanates from that title. Add up all the glory and privileges given to everyone in Heaven and it would not even compare to Our Lady's privileges!

There are many members of the One Body of Christ, but only One Body, One Redeemer, the many members have their office in life, so to speak, they have their role in life to fulfill. Our Lady was created to be the Vessel of Salvation, the Vessel of Grace, the Mother of Mercy. {our life, our sweetest, our hope}

Romans 12:4 For as in one body we have many members, but all the members have not the same office:

It’s to bad that people can't see the specious demonic presentation of Our Lady as co-redeemer, the devil wraps this heresy in a seemingly attractive title. Yes, Our Lady's cooperation was incredibly painful, as the Mother of God, to see Her Son die on the Holy Cross, but she is not co-redeemer. As steve pointed it out, to say co- is to say equal.

Isaias 54:5 For he that made thee shall rule over thee, the Lord of hosts is his name: and thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, shall be called the God of all the earth.

Subject: Email from foul-mouthed heretic

Dear Brothers:

Sounds like this guy is definitely a member of the Vatican II Counterfeit Church. Notice his position which is the keynote of their false religion: "Don't judge". What these liars really mean is: Don't judge evil to be evil; judge evil to be good. That way the devil would get a twofer: Joseph and you! Truth to every proud heretic -- especially when it comes in the form of a rebuke or a correction -- is always looked upon as an insult, rather than a lifesaver. It's astounding how people will essentially sell their souls for a few earthly moments of false harmony and fellowship with one another. This false Masonic "peace" was what Our Lord spoke of when He said: "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you." (John 14:27) Joseph and his supporter apparently prefer the peace which the world giveth.

Displays

Dear Brothers,

The swine not worthy of the pearls of truth displays the Antichrist respect for man that is characteristic of our day. They manifest the heresy of antipope John Paul II, that any offense against man is an offense against God. Yet they fail to see that God is insulted by their lies and unfaithfulness - their infidelity and disloyalty to the Truth…

Comment

Subject: Co-Redeemer

Hi Brothers,

The issue can be pinpointed by focusing on the prefix. "Co-" means equal in all uses I've seen of it. Co-captains, co-workers, etc. all have equal standing on the same level. So, Co-Redeemer(or trix) means equal part share in the Redemption. So Our Lord would also, by definition, be Co-Redeemer. When pressed, all Co-Redemptrix adherents admit they don't believe this, so why bother with it? Our Lady has plenty of honorary titles already; she doesn't need any more. And she probably doesn't want any more, in her humility as well as her devotion to her Son. When explained to mean something other than what the title logically implies, it turns out they mean more like "Sub-Redeemer" which sounds like an insult anyway. But St. Joseph would need a title, because of his cooperative involvement leading to the Redemption. So would his parents, as well as Our Lady's parents . . . and King David, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob . . . even Adam!

So to all of you Co-Redemptrix adherents out there - drop the issue. You won't insult Our Lady. She gets plenty of honor and titles she deserves. But leave the title of Redeemer to the ONLY ONE Redeemer - Our Lord Jesus Christ. This kind of distraction is fruitless.

Thank you,

-Steve

MHFM: The notion of equality is the final impression created by the false title. However, many of those who promote the Co-Redemptrix title would say “co” means “with,” as in Mary redeemed the world with Christ, but that her role was not equal. But that doesn’t matter. Regardless of how they describe it, the title is false and must be rejected, as it contradicts Catholic dogma.

Subject: Mary is not the Co-Redeemer

Thank you for this valuable insight which is LONG overdue! Many Catholics believe this Heresy even though it stands contrary to Church teaching and the Scriptures.

Thank you for a job well done!

Subject: Swine has oinked

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

What sacrilege?!!! A certain swine has oinked like I've never heard it before. What an indecent mouth?!! But then again it is fitting that such words emanate from swine, for after all, do they not eat and feast on the dirtiness of the earth? These swine would do well to clean up their hearts by living the Faith - and therefore, their mouths would in turn, be wholesome in speech.

Subject: Mary Co-Redemptor

The one doing the interview and calling the other a liar, and should go "to confession" and all the other demeaning put downs and accusations, you need to get off your high horse, you are a disgrace to the catholic church, to any church… no excuse for the treatment of someone who is merely debating or discussing an issue. Calling them a liar over and over, you arrogant son of a [word removed]. If I ever spoke to you, whether on the phone or on the air I sure as Mary is the Mother of Jesus, would tell you right where you need to stick that mouth of yours. You are the one who is in need of rehabilitating, you need to learn how to communicate without JUDGEMENT…

MHFM: People who lie should be called liars. You are saying that people should not be admonished for sins, and that's sinful. You also use crude language, while saying that it's inappropriate to call liars what they are: liars. You are amazingly hypocritical. You hate the denunciation of heretics, and lash out in response, because you are of Satan and under his control. If we ever spoke to you, we’d definitely tell you what you are: a disgrace and a liar headed for Hell. The pearls of truth are not for swine like you.

MHFM: It’s a false Protestant idea and it’s not biblical.

When

Dear Brothers,

Re: Mary being a Co-Redeemer

Your video is excellent and so easy to grasp the heresy of Mary being a Co-Redeemer. When I was still in the Novus Ordo church I heard priests and laymen discussing this theme but for some reason I never paid much attention to it and whenever that word “Co-Redeemer” came up the only thing that crossed my mind was Our Lady being intercessor… in our salvation but never ever being in any way a type of redeemer… Apart from the teachings of the true Church the Holy Bible is very clear in revealing that the Redeemer to come is Christ alone the begotten Son of God and would be born of a Virgin and Jesus being God and man simultaneously our Lady is without doubt the Mother of God whom we love and respect. I would even ask these confused souls, when we pray the Rosary, to whom is Our Lady pointing our attention to, her son, her son and God´s only begotten Son, yes when we pray Our Lady´s beautiful Rosary all the mysteries are without doubt pointing to Christ THE Redeemer, Lord of Lords Host of Hosts true God and true Man. It is not at all surprising to see the poor souls embracing these man invented teachings bad fruits of this Apostate New Church.

This week while waiting at the dentist there was also a lady in her sixties and a Novus Ordo “nun”, we began to comment some sad news which appeared on TV, the talk led us to the fact that so much suffering was the result of lack of obedience to God’s Laws, and then the Novus Ordo “nun” also in her sixties said very openly that in the “Catholic Church” there was also much evil and unbelievers, well what about that, I intended to make a few questions but she was called in for her consultation. I and the other lady continued discussing church matters such as Hell and do you know what she said that her priest who was a very devoted “Catholic Priest” was often seen praying before the Holy Sacrament explained one day to the parishioners that there was no Heaven and no Hell, that is, no real heaven or real Hell with physical fire, he teaches that what happens is that when we die we only suffer in our thoughts for not having pleased God, something to that effect, I refuted this and then she agreed and remembered that when she was young the Church did not teach this. The Devil is truly succeeding in manipulating lukewarm souls. Thank you for your hard work.

In JMJ

M…

MHFM: That’s an interesting story about the priest. We’re glad you contradicted the lady. Perhaps you also mentioned it, but one also needs to recommend the information to such a person (e.g., the website) and tell her that she must not attend the New Mass.

What a simple thing to commit Heresy over. Jesus Redeemed the world by himself. The worst part is he will eventually be confronted with his lie. Either he will overcome it or it will drag him to hell.

Subject: Mystery of Iniquity

Dear Brothers,

It's not surprising that Joseph reverted to his heresy, since he showed so much pride and obstinacy in the debate. It is another example of the mystery of iniquity (bad will), how no matter what evidence or patience a person is shown, they refuse to accept the truth. I think his voice sounded unnatural and demonic, especially after Bro. Peter called him a heretic. His fiery rage, like the gates of hell, flared up like Satan. Thank you for the posting it, as well as the video on the SSPV. It shows that the Vatican II apostasy has a much bigger negative influence than most people are willing to recognize.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-11 - "[The Antichrist] Whose coming is according to the working of Satan, in all power, and signs, and lying wonders, And in all seduction of iniquity to them that perish; because they receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. Therefore God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying: That all may be judged who have not believed the truth, but have consented to iniquity."

God Bless,

Revolt

Dear MHFM,

The heretics of the 16 century Revolt tradition and their offshoots enjoy making false allegations against Christianity. The truth is simple. The Bible is a Catholic Book, and when protestants put their own spin on what this is –chapter and verse – they are distorting and doing violence to the word of God both the written word and the Living Word as in the Blessed Lord Himself. Christianity must offset erroneous protestant claims about scripture. The Bible is a Catholic work from first to last. It was given to the Church, for the Church and only the Church is its proper interpreter… The Church has the right to suppress… counterfeits of its works. It also has the right to denounce such works, since the Bible is the intellectual and spiritual property of the Church. Some heretics today complain how Christianity denounced protestant “bibles” and protestant so called “biblical” societies. They also decry how Christians were told not to seek “truth” from protestant works under pain of mortal sin…

Subject: Mary is not the Co-Redeemer

Dear Brother Peter,

Mary is not the Co-Redeemer.

The mystery of iniquity is truly at work in that man. How sad to see someone so willfully blinding himself and hardening his heart against God's truth.

Reminds

Subject: Heresy of co-redeemer

Dear Brothers:

I'm glad you posted this discussion with Joseph. It reminds us that to the heretical mind, there is nothing actually true, and nothing actually false. There is no "yes" or "no" -- just "sorta's". Joseph seemed to be yearning for you to agree with him, because misery loves company more than it realizes. This discussion illustrates the manner in which people receive not the love of the truth: it just bounces off them. But the discussion also reminded me of something else that I would like to mention.

Many years ago, when I was still in the Vatican 2 sect, I had purchased a Rosary tape recorded by a "priest" whose name I believe was Perez. It was put out by an organization that claimed to be "conservative", but I can't remember the name. Before each of the decades, the "priest" would state a petition for that decade, but the petitions he used were not those recommended by St. Louis de Montfort. One of his petitions (which might have been for the 5th Sorrowful Mystery) was a request to the effect that we might be able to participate in the Redemption of men. This troubled me so much at the time, that I began to feel uncomfortable using the tape and I think I did discontinue its use. I could not understand how a supposed priest could make such a mistake.

Now that I think about it in the context of what I have learned from MHFM, the whole false subject of co-Redeeming smacks of the teaching of the Antichrist. If every man is Christ then I guess it makes sense that every man is also the Redeemer. Little wonder the heretic Joseph attempts to diminish Our Lady by claiming that if we do not call her the Co-Redemptrix, we will be dishonoring her. According to Joseph, then, it is not a sufficient honor for Our Lady to be the Mother of God. How Satanic can you get? Just like the Antichrist, Joseph is attempting to put man in the place of God, and even Our Lady cannot be put in the place of God. Thanks for helping us to understand that, as the true popes have certainly always understood, there is no such thing as a harmless heresy.

Lee Ann

MHFM: Thanks for the e-mail. Since numerous people over the years have mentioned it, we should probably point out that we don’t think people should pray the Rosary while listening to a recording of people praying the Rosary. Rather, they should pray it themselves.

Comment

I found brother peter dimond’s debate with the man on mary as co- redemptrix interesting. I thank you very much for your patience and charity in dealing with people like this. Very bizarre man he is. There is some spiritual blockage there… thank you and god bless your apostolate.

from mark v

By the way

MHFM: Those who see (or have seen) the video above will notice that the man we spoke with about the “Co-Redeemer” issue claimed, at the end of the conversation, to agree on the issue and to reject his previous position. That was after he contradicted himself and Catholic truth many times in the conversation. As the video shows, when he claimed to be convinced we told him that despite his assertion we were not convinced that he was convinced. Well, that turned out to be right; for just a few minutes before we posted the video above, he wrote to us. He indicated that he, once again, adheres to and promotes the false position he previously held. So, he is still a dishonest person, an obstinate rejecter of Catholic truth, and a person of bad will, as the video shows.

Romania

Praised be our Lord Jesus Christ.

Hi, I am a teenager from Europe, Romania, I know this is kinda strange but I really need to type this e-mail. (Sorry for my english, not perfect). In Romania the majority of people's confession is orthodox, and my friends too. My family is greek-catholic, and my best friends are orthodox. For just a year, one of them told me about the end of the world, that the catholicism is bad, that only orthodoxy keeps the true teachings, I ignored them. But some day, they invited me to view a video from your website, The Third Secret of Fatima, False sister Lucia and the End of the World. I was really shocked about that. JPII was which I admired him, but after this video my vision changed. One of my friends, was keeping his idea that catholicism is wrong, I ignored him, and started to study more and more.

When I came to a greek-catholic high school, I found catholic latin mass not at school, ( I am from a small town and the high school is in another town "Cluj") (novus ordo), for me It was something new and very awesome. I was very atracted to latin catholic church, I don't like byzantine tradion to much, I wanted to be more " catholic ". After some time, I was interesed in the reform of the liturgy by Paul VI, I saw an video from your website and I was really shocked…

I go often to mass 4-5 per week, and one of time I did go to a roman-catholic church at a latin mass, Now I don't go there anymore, but some weird things I saw there at the Holy Mass were shocking me. One of them are: When the giving Christ's body moment came, 2 lines appear. At the first line the priest is giving the euharist and a deacon keeps in hand some salver, BUT at the second line a WOMEN was giving the eucharist and the priest was keeping the salver. Is this NORMAL?... NOW I KEEP MY CATHOLIC FAITH STRONG and I'M FIGHTING FOR MY SALVATION. Sorry if I this was weird, but I kinda felt it to write this.

Glory be to the Father, to the Sun, to the Holy Spirit Amen.

MHFM: It’s great to hear that you found the information. The New Mass is invalid, and must not be attended. That means that you must not go to the “Mass” you are currently attending. Also, there are problems with Latin Masses offered by “priests” ordained in the New Rite of Ordination. That information is covered on the website. Also, please look at the information on our site which shows why Benedict XVI is not the true pope and the section disproving Eastern "Orthodoxy." The “Orthodox” are unfortunately heretical and schismatic. You should not commune with them in religious matters, and you need to call for them to convert to the true Catholic faith.

Comment

… I agree with Lee ann and the first sentence of her email hits the nail on the head, "Heretical lies fill the void left in a man's mind when he abandons the doctrines which were revealed by God and preserved and taught by real popes."

Matthew 6:24 No man can serve two masters. For either he will hate the one, and love the other: or he will sustain the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

Its automatic, leave God and the devil moves in immediately.

Exodus 15:26 Saying: If thou wilt hear the voice of the Lord thy God, and do what is right before him, and obey his commandments, and keep all his precepts, none of the evils that I laid upon Egypt, will I bring upon thee: for I am the Lord thy healer.

Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (# 9), June 29, 1896:“The practice of the Church has always been the same, as is shown by the unanimous teaching of the Fathers, who were wont to hold as outside Catholic communion, and alien to the Church, whoever would recede in the least degree from any point of doctrine proposed by her authoritative Magisterium.”

Fails

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

The world fails to appreciate the inexhaustible perennial sacrifices made for it by the Church, innumerable have given up their flesh and blood for The Lord Jesus Christ (in the 20th century "the century of massacres") in what is called the ‘Conspiracy of Silence.’ This is minimally acknowledged by secular history today. It is a term used by the Catholic Church to describe the absolute silence and lack of reaction from western democracies (the united states and Europe) and especially their secular media, to the persecutions and slaughters of Catholics by the National Socialists in Germany and by the ‘Terrible Triangle’ (the simultaneous persecutions and bloody massacres of Catholics in these 3 particular countries under Communism: the Soviet union, Mexico , and Spain). The 20th century (WWI & II) was a Catholic affair, for it was the diabolical persecution and attempted eradication of Catholics by the diabolically united enemies of God. It brought out the regicide of the Catholic monarchs. The Mexican revolution against Catholics was financed by Masons in the US government. They provided light armoured cars, tractor-drawn artillery, combat aircraft and even assisted by providing US soldiers to fly the crafts and fight etc; all this financed by US tax dollars paid by Catholics, who never knew their money went to persecute their fellow Catholics. Concerning these bloody massacres, John Lind, one of Woodrow Wilson's advisors, rejoiced over the news: "Great news! The more priests they kill in Mexico, the happier I shall be!" An American pastor, indignant about the outraging of the nuns in Vera Cruz, received this reply from Wilson's personal representative: "After prostitution, the worst thing in Mexico is the Catholic Church. Both must disappear!"

President Woodrow Wilson, who fathered the first international League of Nations, summed up its apostolate thus: "America has a spiritual energy in her which no other nation can contribute to [in] the liberation of mankind. Democracy is a religion. Americans are now missionaries to the world, its President a priest!"…

Went

Subject: Pro-"gay" champion boxer's loss

Dear MHFM,

I believe it was the reader 'Chris' who wrote in some time back, mentioning that a certain boxer would lose since he came out as supporting the sodomites. I agreed with him. Well, that same boxer, named Manny Pacquiao, went on CNN a few hours before his boxing match, apologizing for his statements against the sodomites (euphemistically called "gay" people). His interviewer on CNN, who by the way is himself an open sodomite (Don Lemon), was smiling throughout when Manny made his apologies. Manny Pacquiao, who was so confident, lost his match against Timothy Bradley in a big upset. The man was undefeated for 7 straight years and he was stunned by the loss when the decision went in favor of his opponent. He lost his championship belt. The pro-sodomite mainstream media were upset with the decision, and they were fully supporting Manny Pacquiao. I knew he would lose because of his apologizing for statements seemingly made against the sodomite collective. Of course, since boxing is an evil "sport" I in no way support it or even watch it. But I still wanted Pacquiao to lose, because of his lack of courage against the sodomites, and he did. By the way, it is interesting to point out that boxing matches were officially banned and illegal in many countries and in some parts of the united states in the early 1800s to the 1900s; which, although unlawful, were still sanctioned by regional boxing commissions; when police were bribed, they let the boxing bouts go through. When the 20th century really rolled through, boxing became legal in almost every part of the world.

Preventing

Subject: Heretics and their societies

Dear Brothers:

Heretical lies fill the void left in a man's mind when he abandons the doctrines which were revealed by God and preserved and taught by real popes. And the rise of ersatz "churches" and other replacement societies are Satan's way of preventing people from recognizing that they have lost their God-ordained membership in the Body of Christ.

It seems that when Catholic men became lukewarm about their faith (and had already desired to embrace birth control methods that the demon Paul 6 would later assure the sheep that they could take advantage of) men calling themselves "Catholic" really began to believe the lie that Protestantism was Bible-based. They came to believe that Protestants, and not Catholics, were the ones who really knew the Bible. Added to this was the assault on the Bible by the modernist traitors within the Church (fought by St. Pius X) and, of course, the outright denial of Sacred Scripture by the Anti-popes themselves. Net result in these last days: most Novus Ordo Catholics have no real belief in the Bible and they remain unmoved by its truths which should delight (and light up) their minds. In addition, they have completely forgotten that the prophecies about the end-times are to be found largely in Scripture, and like all prophecies, would not be not fully comprehended until the time of their fulfillment.

And speaking of end-times, it seems that the end-time cults like the Jehovah's Witness and the Adventists did much more than just deceive their duped members into imagining there is no hell. Their bizarre end-time scenarios (which is the real center or substance of these "religions" and the cause of their blasphemous doctrines on God, Jesus Christ, etc.) are absolutely revolting. So revolting, in fact, that they have had the effect of making the very topic of the end-times something to be dismissed out of hand. Little wonder Satan saved this next generation Protestantism for the late 19th Century, when the Apostasy started moving into full swing. As a result of these false sects, many Vatican II sect members (as well as some other protestants) dismiss as fanaticism any mention of the end times! They almost feel a revulsion for the subject. And why not? Didn't their Anti-pope John 23rd specifically tell them to reject gloom and doom? Every generation of Catholics knew about the end-times, including the first generation which questioned St. Paul about it. Every generation, that is, except the generation that would live through it, and this perhaps explains why Jesus told us His coming would be like a thief in the night.

Thank you for exposing the power and workings of heresy both individually and collectively, and the tremendous evil of groups like the SSPV, the SSPX and others who pose as faithful Catholics when all the while they are spokesmen for Satan.

Dear Brothers

… Manny Pacquiao vs Timothy Bradley didn't go to well… I didn't watch the fight, but looked at the result; didn't go well for Pacquiao. Bradley won a contested split decision over Pacquiao, ending the Filipino fighter's remarkable run and handing him his first defeat in seven years. It didn't come easy and it wasn't without controversy, with the pro-Pacquiao crowd booing loudly when the decision was announced. Atheism is flourishing in this godless world, please pray for my family and I, we will in turn continue to pray for you…

Groups

Dear MHFM,

The heretical groups of the so called SSPV and SSPX remind me of that heretic Laisney individual, whom you decimated in the book called Outside the Catholic Church There is Absolutely No Salvation. He made outrageous mortally sinful lies… This actually startled me, that a man who claims to be a priest would lie abominably like this. This makes sense because heretics are liars at heart and so they will do what naturally comes to them. It is analogous to how the self-proclaimed SSPX will distort and misrepresent Sedevacantism in their so called seminaries. These people and many others, believe in a "natural Church." Consequently, they and their adherents will only be satisfied with the outside things and not the substance of the Faith. They will be satisfied with the outward appearance of things because they are carnal people. It is ridiculous how these heretics think they know it all, but know nothing…. I communicated with a Novus Ordo heretic who in the past had converted to the Sedevacantist position because his fiance (now wife) was a Sedevacantist. They then converted back into the Novus Ordo and received the "bishop's" blessing. Anyhow… I argued with him. He is so clueless about Church teaching that he believes a priest ceases to be a priest when they embrace heresy, and would need re-ordination. His pathetic arguments were all about just piling up (scholarly sounding) copy-and-pasted Novus Ordo gobbledygook publications, and he wasn't interested at all in the truth, and would evade addressing my valid points. Thank you for your new video, heretics are abominations and I can see why nothing infuriates Lord God Jesus Christ more than heresy. Lying is usual their language; and they blaspheme the inner Life of Our Lord Jesus Christ. There shalt be weeping and gnashing of the teeth, in the not too distant future - mark my words.

V-2 “Jesuits”

Subject: “Jesuit” pedophile

Dear Brothers,

The Vatican II "Jesuits" don't know what to do with the most dangerous "priest" in America: "Defrocked Jesuit priest and twice-convicted serial pedophile, Donald J. McGuire, was declared, “the Most Dangerous Priest in America” by the Chicago Sun-Times on November 2, 2007. McGuire was sent to the St. Luke’s Treatment Institute and evaluated by Stephen J. Rossetti, who is currently a professor at Catholic University in Washington D.C. Yet when the Dallas Blog emailed Rossetti to ask him about his opinion of America’s most dangerous priest, he responded, I “don’t know” McGuire, in an email dated, March 23."

Dear Brothers,

Thank you very much for your excellent new video on the heresy of "Baptism of Desire".

It clearly shows the bad will of the SSPV and many others of their type. I have had several discussions myself with so-called traditional priests and so-called "Catholics" about BOD and it is astounding how bad-willed most of them are. And many of them can indeed be classified "morons" also, as you so fittingly explain. Bad-willed heretics are so blind, stupid and cannot help contradicting themselves with their illogical garbage.

It is so important that you continue to expose those heretics and liars for what they are.

Many thanks again,

Problem

Dear MHFM,

… after hearing the new video against SSPV. I especially liked the end part as it covered the primary problem of these bad will heretics ; they are like Brother Peter said : 'They are filled with PRIDE' . They don’t want to repent and just use their tongues against God, speaking with fury and undiscipline.

That's what Saint Bernard of Clairvaux used to say :

- Saint Bernard "You do not convince them by reasoning (they do not understand) or by the authorities (they do not receive them), or by persuasion (as they are of bad faith [BAD WILL] )…”

…Sincerely in Christ

Dear Reverend Brothers,

You do a great service to Catholics by pointing out how the VatII Church really works: greeting leaders of false religions on the approach of their yearly diabolic festivals. It has been doing this for nigh 50 years now; yet it never ceases to amaze or to scandalize! It shows how contrary to the apostolic path the Newchurch steadfastly and brazenly adheres. As I read your latest postings on this continuing scandal, I thought: there is no way the Vatican can ever climb down from these expressions of solidarity and praise for false religions. I have concluded that the Vatican is a lost cause, and personally expect that magnificent edifice of Catholic patrimony, Saint Peter's in Rome, will be destroyed before long, as the civilizational conflict worsens and the apostasy deepens. The "reigning pope of the Antichurch" will become the victim of his own folly in not only not converting the enemy (and to what would he possibly convert him? Certainly not to authentic Catholicism!) but also in not even seeing him approach, dagger/nuclear weapon in hand. It's all over but the funeral and the fotos! But please don't slacken in your resolve…

Emperor worship

MHFM: This is a very interesting quote because it shows how a non-Catholic biblical scholar (who would not share our opinion on the fulfillment of the Apocalypse) acknowledges that the language of Apocalypse 13 (and the worship of the beast described) alludes to emperor worship – and the worship of the emperor’s image.

“The worship of the beast clearly seems to refer to the emperor cult, and the crucial verse on this is Rev. 13:15, where those who refuse to worship the image of the beast are to be killed.” (Ben Witherington, New Testament History, p. 397)

This coincides with our opinion on the fulfillment of Apocalypse 13: that it concerns a new version of the pagan Roman Empire, and two Roman emperor figures. One of those emperors figures (Antipope John Paul II) claimed to be “dominus et deus” (Lord and God) just like the pagan Roman emperors (e.g., Domitian) did. The other emperor figure (Antipope Benedict XVI), the second beast/false prophet, causes people to worship the image of the previous emperor, just as the pagan Roman emperors caused people to worship deceased Roman emperors. We covered this in detail in our video on the Apocalypse, especially in parts 4-7. However, viewing the entire program is necessary to understand the points and how we think they fit together.

B16 Heresies

Subject: B16 heresies in books

Could you send me a list of heretical quotes from B16's books so that I can give them to my grandfather who is a devout novus ordo and reads his books. Thank you very much for standing for the truth.

Sincerely,

Paul.

MHFM: We have a section on his heresies: Benedict XVI (The Heresies of Benedict XVI File) [link to section]. That section contains the following files: the file on his heresies that’s featured in our book (The Heresies of Benedict XVI )[PDF file]; the file on his most recent heresies (Some other recent heresies from Benedict XVI); and the file on his heresies arranged by book title (Benedict XVI's heresies by book).

What are you doing?

Subject: What are you doing?

I've never heard someone claim to be catholic that lambasts the church the way you do. If you don't follow the papal authority you are not catholic. You my friend are a schismatic and have excommunicated yourself. You have a very closed mind.

Anthony Abbate's iPad

MHFM: What are you doing?! We’re promoting the truth. You are just a clueless heretic. According to Catholic and papal teaching (which you reject), Benedict XVI is a schismatic and an antipope. He teaches dozens of heresies. If you would wake up you might realize that Benedict XVI teaches that schismatics don’t need to be converted. You have excommunicated yourself. You have no concept of fidelity to the Papacy. Look at the facts. Here’s just one example of heresy from Benedict XVI, out of a hundred that could be given: (The Heresies of Benedict XVI )

During his 2006 trip to Turkey, Benedict XVI went into two schismatic cathedrals and met with three schismatic patriarchs, including the leader of the world’s schismatics: Eastern Orthodox Patriarch of Constantinople, Bartholomew I. Benedict XVI not only committed a forbidden act of communication in sacred things with the schismatic, but he committed one of his worst heresies in his joint declaration with him.

Benedict XVI, Joint Declaration with Schismatic Patriarch Bartholomew, Nov. 30, 2006: “This fraternal encounter which brings us together, Pope Benedict XVI of Rome and Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, is God's work, and in a certain sense his gift. We give thanks to the Author of all that is good, who allows us once again, in prayer and in dialogue, to express the joy we feel as brothers and to renew our commitment to move towards full communion. This commitment comes from the Lord's will and from our responsibility as Pastors in the Church of Christ… As far as relations between the Church of Rome and the Church of Constantinople are concerned, we cannot fail to recall the solemn ecclesial act effacing the memory of the ancient anathemas which for centuries had a negative effect on our Churches.”

Did you get that? He says: “… our responsibility as pastors IN THE CHURCH OF CHRIST”! What could be more heretical than: declaring in a joint declaration with the leader of the world’s schismatics that the schismatic leader, who rejects the Papacy and Papal Infallibility, is “in the Church of Christ”?

Benedict XVI made this formally heretical declaration in a schismatic cathedral as part of a joint declaration during a divine liturgy with a notorious schismatic! Thus, it’s official: Benedict XVI has declared in a public joint declaration that one can reject the Papacy, Papal Infallibility, Vatican I, etc. and be in the Church of Christ. He is without any doubt a public heretic. Anyone who denies this, in light of these facts, is also a heretic. Even the most dishonest and hardened defender of Antipope Benedict XVI will find it impossible to explain this one away.

Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum (#15), June 29, 1896 – Bishops Separated from Peter and his Successors Lose All Jurisdiction: “From this it must be clearly understood that Bishops are deprived of the right and power of ruling, if they deliberately secede from Peter and his successors; because, by this secession, they are separated from the foundation on which the whole edifice must rest. They are therefore outside the edifice itself; and for this very reason they are separated from the fold, whose leader is the Chief Pastor; they are exiled from that Kingdom, the keys of which were given by Christ to Peter alone… No one, therefore, unless in communion with Peter can share in his authority, since it is absurd to imagine that he who is outside can command in the Church.”

All of this heresy from Benedict XVI is also a total mockery of the saints and martyrs who suffered because they refused to become Eastern “Orthodox,” as covered in the section entitled: Catholics who were tortured and martyred because they refused to become Eastern Schismatics.

Comment

Subject: Cristeros Movie

I saw this movie last night, and while it is certainly a refreshingly "good" movie by today's standards, I think it has a few problems. The big doctrinal problem I think is that the movie's Cristeros say they are fighting for their freedom and for religious liberty. In fact in one scene, the leader of the the Cristeros, Andy Garcia's character, in negotiation with the Mexican President, says that he is fighting for "absolute freedom". No qualifier, just total freedom. While contextually, it is better to have religious liberty, as the lesser evil against total Catholic suppression, religious liberty is still on balance an evil, and not a good. And the movie has the Cristeros essentially fighting for freedom, and not for God.

Historically I think the movie creates the impression that the rebellion was an unqualified success in restoring liberty to the Church. In reality, the truce agreed to was a far from ideal compromise, and even then, the government reneged and murdered many thousands of Cristero soldiers and sympathizers after the truce. In many localities, severe persecution of the Church continued for decades in Mexico.

I think the movie soft-pedals the role of the US a little too. It does show the US ambassador negotiating with the Mexican President to provide machine guns and airplanes in return for oil rights (Mexico had recently nationalized US run oil fields). It doesn't show the audience how this negotiation wrapped up (the US did in fact provide not only machine guns and planes, but American pilots to fly them) or the devastating effect of these weapons in the field. I doubt that many US Catholics at the time, and certainly fewer since, realized that their tax dollars were being used to murder their fellow Catholics on their own border, and this movie only gently tiptoes around this fact.

In going back and reading some of the statements in Mexico's anti-clerical laws from the early 20th Century, I find it interesting how much they sound like today's pop-culture Atheist like Dawkins. Religion is derided as superstitious, ignorant, and anti-progress. These men who fought to wipe out the Church saw it as their duty to the advancement of humanity. These murderers would fit right in on any modern college faculty.

All of that said, the movie does paint Catholics in general and the warrior priests in particular in a very favorable light. Neither does it shrink from portraying the violence the government perpetrated against them. It conveys the brutality without any gratuitous gore. I think people should see it, but then try to read more about this whole history.

Subject: Lutheran Wedding

Dear Brothers,

The Lutheran wedding affair is horrible. It shows how since Vatican II, in most "Catholics" minds, there is no such thing as heresy or heretics… It is more of the same Nestorian worship of man, and the confusion of creatures with the Creator, like a Kabbalistic Eutyches.

Groups

FSSP, SSPX, SSPV, CMRI, among others, are groups you don't approve of ... is there any group out there that you wholeheartedly approve of, or are the true Catholics such a minority that it's almost impossible for them to join together…? As someone who wants to be faithful to the Catholic Faith, I find this frustrating.… Our Lady of Salette prophesied that "Rome will lose the Faith and become the seat of the Antichrist ... the Catholic Church would be in eclipse." How right she was ... :(

Patrick Palmer

MHFM: The groups you mention are unfortunately heretical, and no Catholic should join them. That can be demonstrated. We approve of Most Holy Family Monastery. A person’s focus should be to embrace the truth and fulfill God’s will.

There are some options for receiving sacraments in the case that a person is fully convinced on the core issues. Before receiving sacraments, one must reach the point where one is committed never to attend the New Mass again, believes in Outside the Church There is No Salvation without exception (no “baptism of desire”), rejects NFP, won’t support any heretical priests, etc. That’s explained in this file: Where to go to Mass or confession today?. People should also make the traditional profession of faith from the Council of Trent, which can be accessed from the aforementioned file. Once a person is convinced on all relevant matters, we can help that person with possible locations for receiving sacraments. We also recommend people to pray the Rosary each day, all 15 decades if possible.

“Jesuit,” Wedding

A while ago I told you how me and my brother not going to my cousins wedding caused a rift in my family. Some interesting things resulted from this. My V2 brother decided he felt weird about going to a lutheran wedding so he went and talked to a V2 "jesuit" theologian. Surprisingly the "jesuit" said that since my cousin was raised V2 he is still under "canon law" and needs to get permission from a "bishop" to marry a lutheran in a lutheran "church"… So my brother sent my cousin a letter saying he needed to go get permission from a "Bishop" in order for my brother to attend. This caused a new wave of disturbance through my family. My cousin had a little spat, saying something like how dare he judge me or something. This caused my militant atheist brother to FREAK OUT. Calling people saying they are terrible, family is important, you’re hurting people. So now my Mom is in the middle of this new rift. Her atheist son demanding she convince her three sons to go (two Catholic one V2). My Mom then is forced to side with us saying she cannot be mad that they are following their conscience (she is still going to go to the wedding though). Then my Mom’s twin sister calls (my cousin’s mother). My Mom’s twin sister is upset, asking, "Since when can we not attend non Catholic weddings?". My Mom says, "well we never used to be able to". Then after the conversation my Mom is upset, that her sister is upset about her sons following their conscience. So upset that she tells the story to me and a few others. So I thought that was an interesting turn of events.

MHFM: That’s interesting, and the “Jesuit” is still not correct according to traditional Catholic teaching. When mixed marriages were permitted (and that was rare), there had to be a dispensation, an agreement to raise the children Catholic, and the marriage certainly could not be contracted in a non-Catholic church. Thus, his statement that permission from a heretical “bishop” allows marriage in a Lutheran church is contrary to Catholic teaching; and obviously a Catholic should never attend a non-Catholic marriage ceremony, even one between two baptized Protestants that happens to be valid.

Now, he's divorcing his second wife and wants her to support him. Mel doesn't have enough money? That whole family is a joke. Shows what happens to "Catholics" when they persist in heresy -- despising and rejecting any and all correction.

Learning

I am interested in learning more about the Catholic Church. While in Hospice Center with my father who recently passed… It was as though God was trying to get my attention. I was on Youtube recently and watched some of your posted videos. I only came upon your videos by chance. It was nothing I was searching for at the time. What caught my attention was the honesty in the videos. I was raised Protestant and the Catholic Church was frowned upon. I have always felt as though as long as a group of believers obey Gods word and worship in truth that the church was accepted by God whether Catholic or another denomination. I can understand the confusion that comes from fragmentation as a lot of the Protestant denominations would denounce each other for differences in doctrine. I know the Catholic Church desires to reunite all believers. Can you give me some info. on why all Christians should be under the Catholic Church? Also if the churchs' Popes and other high officials are not of the church at present, then how much of the Church follows God and how do you know which Churches to attend? My questions are not meant to provoke or offend. This is just some questions that I wanted to ask and I feel as though I would get an honest answer from your organization. Thank you for your time.

Bblevins…

MHFM: We’re glad you came across the information. The Catholic Church alone is truly Christian and biblical. That’s proven in our book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church, and in the material on our website that refutes Protestantism. Hence, the other denominations are false and belong to Satan, as they reject and pervert core truths of Christ. They do not lead to salvation.

Pope Leo XII (1824): “It is impossible for the most true God, who is Truth itself, the best, the wisest Provider, and the Rewarder of good men, to approve all sects who profess false teachings which are often inconsistent with one another and contradictory, and to confer eternal rewards on their members… by divine faith we hold one Lord, one faith, one baptism… This is why we profess that there is no salvation outside the Church.” (Ubi Primum #14)

You seem to have retained a somewhat modern “ecumenical” attitude, one that accepts differences in belief. It’s important that you put that away, as it’s incompatible with a true faith in the one revealed truth of Christ. Also, the Church does not need to reunite with “believers,” for it contains all the true believers. The Church’s “oneness” or unity is one of its marks. The people outside the Church (i.e., the members of non-Catholic religions) are not believers, but unbelievers that need to be converted. You ask if Benedict XVI, etc. are not of the Church, then how much of the Church is of God. Benedict XVI is an antipope. The structure over which he presides is not the Catholic Church. That’s explained in the material. As a result, their false teachings do not represent the true teachings of the Church. As you look at the videos and articles – and we hope you will – we think you will see that point. You should pray the Rosary each day.

Comment

Brothers,

The movie ‘The Greater Glory’ which I saw last night is in theaters now which shows the true account of Mexico during the years of 1926-29, where the Mexican president declared war and persecution on the Catholics in that country. It’s getting lots of good reviews, shows us just how evil people are and how there’s a hatred of Christ and His Church. Also shows how the Catholics said ‘enough is enough’ and armed themselves and started a war against the Government. Shows the rounding up and killing of priests and faithful, troops storming into Latin Mass and shooting everyone and the hangings of Catholic children. Powerful and moving movie shows what an armed resistance can do against an evil government…

Comment

Dear MHFM,

Just thought I'd bring this to your listeners attention. The movie "For Greater Glory"...the Cristeros War in Mexico 1926-1929, is finally being released (after a 2 year delay)… Formally titled "Cristiada". It took 2 years to finally be permitted to be distributed to viewers in theaters. This film of the devotion and heroism of the Cristeros is something that Satan and his… agents… do not want people to view! The story is told through a secular Mexican military officer, played by Andy Garcia, who sees his nation being devastated by these godless forces and turns to the Truth and the ONLY Real Source of hope and strength...He turns to Christ and the Rights of Christ as King and Savior of the World!! This is a film for our time as Christ and His Blessed Mother are now our only recourse in fighting these Satanic forces. May this be our devout battle cry as well...

VIVA CRISTO REY!

LONG LIVE CHRIST THE KING!

LONG LIVE OUR LADY OF GUADALUPE!

Dear MHFM,

The msnbc media outfit is just one of many left winger tv networks enmeshed with the globalist panopticon propaganda control grid system. It's pretty much standard operation for leftist press to be arrogant, dismissive, and derisive in regards to the truth and any dissenting points against Establishment control. They are following the battle plan of the communists and radicals laid out by Saul Alinsky (in his book called "Rules for radicals" which he dedicated to Lucifer in his preface) which states that nothing is more effective than ridicule, it is almost impossible to counteract and that it infuriates the opposition. The leftist media is following the tactics laid out by Alinsky, point by point, and they are staffed by communists, socialists and other radicals. I also wanted to add that Anti-Clerical mythology is crucial in the arsenal of the globalist panoptical controls. The globalist know they can't move forward without fighting the Church, so they utilize straw men (the Vatican II sect) and misconceptions in an attempt to discredit Christianity. For deep down in the hearts of the pagan (all non-Catholics) they realize that a Priest stands as a conviction against their sinful lives, and that there is death and judgment for our sins. This releases tremendous outbursts of Anti-Catholicism (masked under Anti-Clericalism) within the hearts of the pagan. The world hates Christianity for it testifies that their works are evil…

Rome Reports

Subject: Rome Reports

ROME REPORTS TV News Agency

In a current video, this news agency is suggesting that the Vatican is being blackmailed in regard to two letters signed by B16's youngish secretary named Georg Gaenswein. The report says that the "moles" who stole documents are not releasing the contents of those 2 letters (just the dates of the letters with Georg's signature), out of consideration for B16. But supposedly they will release the contents of those letters unless certain individuals who have mismanaged things are ousted from the Vatican. So, this is all about a concern for good government, eh?

In another one of their videos (Who Has Access to the Papal Apartments?), Rome Reports names all the characters who freely come and go there, and could have stolen and passed along documents. Included in this group of characters are 4 so-called "consecrated women" who are members of the "Communion and Liberation Movement", if I heard that right. (Sounds like they carry rifles instead of Rosaries.) Perhaps the butler didn't do it, after all. Perhaps the Hag Brigade stole the documents in retaliation for B16's pretended concern for "tradition", and the Vatican's pretended rebuke of these so-called "nuns". It is hard to say who is more sickening: the False Prophet, or those who recognize him as Pope.

Thank you so much for the help, and yes after watching your video on nfp i now understand how it IS in fact birth control and is against true christian teachings… I had another question brother… i was wanting to know where you, and your brother stand on Charismatic worship, and more specifically, speaking in tongues, falling down paralyzed in what people claim an embrace of love that cannot be described, and visions or dreams. A lot of this took place at the retreat after we are guided to ask God to grant whatever spiritual gifts he has for us, as it is mentioned through paul's epistles, and Acts. This im curious to ask because i have witnessed my parents receive these gifts, and me knowing my parents since childhood i dont believe them to be actors, or crazy…

MHFM: They are heretical, as they accept Vatican II, salvation outside the Church, and Antipope Benedict XVI.

From the article, "We don't try to make them become Catholic," said Lyons. "Our goal is that they relate to Jesus Christ, that they relate to God." It’s so evil and empty.

World

Subject: universities and education

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

The world fails to appreciate the mighty work of the Church in systematizing education into branches of knowledge and of building the first universities. As teaching and educating humanity is the duty of the Church, it comes as no surprise that the Church should build the first universities; and it is indeed proper that Education originated and came from the Church. For the depth of the knowledge of the Church is manifold and penetrating. The Church did not only preserve the Sacred Scriptures, but they also collected, preserved, and multiplied the manuscripts precious to the world. To the Church the world is indebted for much of its ancient literature.

The Church also built the first schools, not just universities; for its monks were learned in all areas and systems of knowledge and more than ready to carry out the Church's mandate of educating all mankind unto Truth. The Benedictines were instrumental in this regard and they set the model of education from which the schools of youth, and the universities, flourished. To these belong the right of the work of Education and the cultivation of literature, and the competent portion of mankind has always readily admitted such, as the circumstances required. It is also fitting the Church discovered and invented the scientific method.

When the Protestant outbreak occurred, governments of continental Europe made the schools and universities of their own territories state institutions, paying the professors as government employees, sometimes prescribing textbooks, methods of teaching, and even doctrines. The governments then retained the monopoly of establishing universities and of appointing the professors. As a result of taking education out of the hands of the Church, anti-Christian and atheistic tendencies have become standard, in all branches of "knowledge." As a result, private endowments of schools that maintain the truth of Revelation can be said to be extinct…

Comment

In reading your e-exchanges today it calls to mind that when I "randomly" came across a document online maybe 7-, 8 years ago… The thing that jumped out the very most at me out of the whole document was the "plan" to infiltrate the catholic church and to "gnaw/chew" at it FROM WITHIN LIKE RATS in order to bring it down...And now we have B16 the RAT, supposedly finishing the job in the final days of the counter church. Maybe the enemies of Holy Mother Church were not counting on or perhaps foolishly underestimating the power of the intercession of Mary Queen of Heaven and Earth since she can so obviously, so easily crush ANY "rat"! Human or otherwise. Maybe not too many people are aware of the fact that she has already done so, in terms of crushing the enemies of the church, by exposing them, and by supporting the faithful remnant in our day. The other thing that comes into my mind about this is that I think I read somewhere in MHFM materials about the word "gnaw" or "chew" in reference to what Jesus said about those who would eat His Body and Blood in the Eucharist, ( I read this somewhere that the word Our Lord used was "gnaw" or "chew" .) Isn't it an odd contrast to those who would worthily ingest His precious body and blood versus those who would do everything in their and hell's power to make the Most Blessed Sacrament rare or nonexistent on the earth? …

Conundrum

Subject: conundrum

Dear Most Holy Family,

Since my conversion to traditional Catholicism 7 months ago I have tried to convert my wife who even though attended a traditional mass isn't ready to leave the novus order. My biggest problem now is that my wife has decided 3 kids is enough, in 2 months times she will have given birth to our 3rd child, she is 40 yrs old. She wants me to get snipped and I told her no, her response is if I don' I better stay away from her sexually. While I'd rather do that instead of mortally sinning by doing the procedure, if we don't have sexual relations isn't that sinning anyways since we won't be producing children? What options do I have if she insists she doesn't want more children? Thanks for all your work.

DG

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. Your wife is a disgrace. It’s interesting that while she clearly has no regard for Catholic teaching – even a teaching the Vatican II sect would claim to uphold: e.g., that male or female sterilization is forbidden – she still insists on showing up at the Novus Ordo “church.” Isn’t it amazing that people feel obliged to show up at a “Catholic” church, even though they have no problem rejecting basic Catholic teaching? That’s another clear example of how for most (including most traditionalists), “Catholicism” is defined by showing up at a building and/or by community – not true, interior, day-to-day fidelity to God and the faith. Presenting themselves at a church building offers a false salve to their consciences – a misleading feeling that they are fulfilling the minimum requirement to God when they are not. How they deceive themselves…

That being said, the course of action you should follow is very clear. You should not approach your wife. She is sinning by her choice, since the decision to abstain was not made mutually between husband and wife and for a proper reason. You are not committing any sin by staying away from her. Since she’s a heretic, you should not pray with her. Also, you should not allow her to take your children to the Novus Ordo. Her activity would also be grounds for separation.

Horrors

Dear Brothers:

I am glad that SP notified us of the article on Rudy Eugene and voodoo. That horrific incident is a physical manifestation of what Satan has been able to do spiritually to the Church and thus the world. And what a simile: gnawing like Rats. It is also useful to remember that after the Last Judgment and the Resurrection of the Dead, when all men's bodies have been rejoined to their souls, activities such as face chewing will be a common past time in Hell (except that time will never pass, and such horrors will be eternal). These horrors should make people run for the Rosary, but so many people are so blind -- even these previews of hell can't sway them.

And speaking of previews of hell, it is sad to think that the Catholic Church's once beautiful religious orders (which have done so much for the eternal welfare of souls and produced such beautiful Saints like Therese and Bernadette) are almost all gone in these Last Days. Now what the world has is a Legion of Hags who have the audacity to mock God and the Blessed Virgin Mary by calling themselves "nuns". And what a sickening farce Satan produces when he makes it appear as if the Vatican is opposed to this wolf pack! Yet, more sickening still are the Vatican II adherents ("traditional" or otherwise) who are so willfully blind, they can't even recognize a chewed up face when they see one. Isn't it interesting, too, how these women promoting degeneracy always call their conferences "leadership" conferences. Perhaps they do that to honor their leader, Satan, while deceiving others who are not quite as "enlightened".

Dear MHFM,

It is quite revealing how you describe, "The Rat," Ratzinger as being the second beast in The Apocalypse series. On reading, "The Apocalypse," Chapter 16v13-14-"And I saw from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs." Upon seeing several pictures of antipope JPII, with his vivid facial expressions, he clearly seems to look like a frog. It's unmistakable if you look closely at this strange face. Like it says, "...they are the spirits of devils working signs..." Great work MHFM!

In answer to Co... about why we pray to the Blessed Virgin Mary. I just finished re-reading the SECRET OF THE ROSARY by ST.LOUIS DE MONFORT for the umpteenth time!!
I LOVE this book! Co.. must read this as does everyone else, because every time I read it I find something more in it! There is so much to absorb and understand! Our Lady has saved so many souls who are on the brink of hell! This is why there is so much chaos and problems in the world because we do not pray to Our Lady. She has helped defeat so many Muslims, ie.Batttle of Lepanto, and more as are described in this book!

… Another favorite of mine of Our Lady is the GLORIES OF MARY by St. ALPHONSUS. God Bless you and your work.

Dear Brothers,

The official SSPX news service, DICI, claims it is "prejudging" to comment on the union of the SSPX with Rome before the actual document is in their hands. It's more of the same "you can't judge heresy," which is heresy itself. The fact is that all the documents necessary to make such a judgment have already been issued, and they consist of the infallible pronouncements of true popes who defined dogma and condemned heresy. It never ceases to amaze me at how they manage to dodge the issue of the necessity to condemn heresy. They even invent new words so as to avoid it. Yet the truth won't just disappear.

The fact that the SSPX priests and bishops are heretics and schismatics is clearly evident even by their desire to be united with the Vatican II sect and its antichrist antipopes. They mock the necessity of belonging to the Catholic Church for salvation, and hold to the sacrament denying heresies of "baptism of desire," "baptism of blood," and "invincible ignorance." They prove themselves unworthy of heaven because they have no love, fear or faith in the Most Holy Trinity, and Jesus Christ, God Incarnate, and they pander to man as if he were the Most High. Then they persecute true Catholics. What an outrage!!!

God Bless,

Subject: SSPX deal with Rome

Dear Brother Peter and Brother Michael

I would be very interested in your views on the big story of an impending deal between the SSPX and Rome. I find this an important issue as it reveals many things about the current state of the SSPX, which is hopelessly divided between authoritarian compromisers with Rome led by Bishop Fellay, who allow no openness or debate in the Society on such an important matter, and those who oppose any deal led by Bishop Williamson. Those who oppose a deal are being characterized as sedevacantists by the Fellayites. If only this were true, but on the contrary opponents of a deal with Rome reject sedevacantism and adopt the same recognise but resist strategy of Archbishop Lefebvre. However, the damage done to the traditionalist movement of a deal between the SSPX and Rome would be immense as it would seem the last bastion of organised resistance to Vatican II has fallen. The only good thing about this I think is that the battle lines will be more clearly drawn and more and more Catholics who resist Vatican II will be forced to seriously consider sedevacantism. But the confused theology of the SSPX, together with its authoritarian structure, is really preventing a clear and effective rebellion against the treachery of its leadership. Your observations and views on this crisis in the SSPX would be much appreciated.

Yours in Christ

Gerard

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. One thing: we do not believe the SSPX represents the last bastion of organized resistance to Vatican II. They represent one heretical group’s organized compromise and semi-resistance to parts of Vatican II. The last bastion of organized resistance to Vatican II is a description that applies to the true uncompromising Catholics in our day, who work to expose the heresies of Vatican II and the Counter Church in a truly faithful and consistent fashion. We hope to comment on the SSPX’s potential deal with the apostate antipope soon.

Ratio

Subject: The Cumulative Phenomenon

Dear MHFM,

I think the ratio between persons who are same-gender attraction oriented versus those who are not, is much higher in government than in the general population. This phenomenon has been reported all over the globe. Additionally, the ratio of persons sympathetic to same-gender attraction oriented lifestyles versus those that are not, is still higher in government compared to the general public. A sorting process has occurred that facilitates the accumulation of certain kinds of persons in government that will defend the interests of the internationalists: communists, socialists, freemasons, and a multitude of other affiliated bodies who share with them their chief opinions, are so united by a community of purpose for the complete overthrow of that order which the Christian teaching has wrought - as Pope Leo XIII warned of in his encyclical Humanum Genus of April 20th, 1884. Demonic forces are definitely responsible for this turn of events, including the furtherance of an intrinsic evil that not even the Russians tolerate parades for.

“Jehovah’s Witnesses”

Subject: Sloth and Bad Will

Dear Brothers:

I have come to the conclusion that the rise of the cult called the "Jehovah's Witnesses" may be one of the many punishments God has permitted in the period of Apostasy which began in the latter part of the 19th century. This sect was one of the bizarre movements (and perhaps the largest) that arose in America after 1860, which I believe was the period referred to by Our Lady of La Salette. While all false religions (including all forms of fake Christianity) are based on lies, the lies of the Jehovah's Witnesses is like a gusher right out of the abyss.

They lie about their founder and his successors (which is a matter of historical record). They lie about the times the sect falsely prophesied the day of Armageddon, and then had to revise their prophesy when it didn't occur (also a matter of record). They lie about the doctrines which they claim to believe in. They lie when posing as students of the Bible, since they know nothing of the Bible and never have the slightest interest in any Biblical material that is offered to them. While pretending to believe in Jesus, they lie about Him, His words and about the Church He founded. And, if you should attempt to give them a few facts and to talk to them for more than a minute or two, they will probably start misquoting you and, thus, are lying about that, as well. Astounding. It's like they have a compulsion to lie, and the sheer magnitude of their lies is like a barricade that prevents any truth at all from getting in.

I suspect that a lot of these people are ex-Catholics (or rather, people from so-called "Catholic" settings) who never knew the Catholic faith, and never bothered to learn it. I seem to recall hearing that this cult does not permit its adherents to look at other material (lest they should find out the truth). I don't know if that is true, but one thing is for certain: if they go along with that directive, it is as much a result of their own spiritual and intellectual sloth -- which is probably what got many of them caught in the first place. Not to mention that these cults save them from having to worry about those troublesome things like sin, judgment and the need for repentance (others will have to worry about that). The Jehovah Witnesses -- and all others like them who reek of bad will -- are precious to Satan, and he keeps giving these faithless people plenty of snake oil with which to soothe their deadened consciences.

Concerning

Subject: Voodoo

Dear Brothers,

Concerning the Miami man who chewed up another man's face; his girlfriend suggests that he may have been under a voodoo curse. Although there is no conclusive evidence at this point to suggest so, it is still a very real possibility. I can attest to that from my lifelong knowledge of the voodoo aspect of Haiti. My mother was born and raised in Haiti and she says that such incidents are not unheard of in Haiti among voodoo practitioners. They basically worship the Devil so it's not surprising that the Devil could inspire someone to commit such a horrific act. One does not necessarily have to be heavily involved in voodoo, but to even associate with voodoo people presents an occasion of sin and leaves one's soul open to reception of demons. Whether or not this is the case with the Miami man is not clear at this point.

Comment

Subject: Extent of evil influences

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

The elites at the top are themselves sodomites and in fact, they will be gathering at the Bohemian Grove this summer solstice in July as usual. A disgusted President Richard Nixon, in now released White House tape recordings, is overheard criticizing the Bohemian Club gathering which he attended as one of the most filthy sodomite affairs he had ever witnessed. This elite secret society group is consumed by sodomite imagery. Having forsaken the Lord Jesus Christ and having voluntarily forsaken the eternal gifts and exceptional joy and happiness tendered through Him and made available by His Grace, they are given over to a reprobate sense and to fleshly depravity. Liberally minded persons inundate society, and even Liberals who are not themselves sodomites, nevertheless tend to support such activity. The inhuman vice of the elites know no bounds while consumed in their hedonism. Since sodomites are possessed by the demon of Lust; possessed persons that are coordinated can do much in making way for their evils.

The US Appeals Court struck down the Defense of Marriage Act provisions regarding federal benefits, tax filing; the first step toward forcing "gay marriage" on entire country. On Thursday, May 31, the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) was again "struck down" by a unanimous decision of the three-judge US Court of Appeals for the First Circuit in Boston -- supporting the original decision handed down in July, 2010. The suit was filed in Boston in 2010 by several sodomite couples with the assistance of the state-supported sodomite legal group Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders. The original decision in July, 2012… was upheld by the US Appeals Court.

The US Appeals Court's decision thus asserts that sodomist actitivity and sodomite "unions" are legitimate and unassailable from a moral or other standpoint. And from that assertion, sodomite "unions" and God ordained marriage are morally and legally interchangeable. And sodomites are simply a minority group whose rights are illegally being denied by the federal government. This is all the sodomite groups needed to move forward. The sodomite movement knows it cannot accomplish its goals through the ballot box (they've lost 32 state elections in a row)…

Stranger

Dear Brothers,

… Why exactly do Catholics pray to The Virgin Mary? I was having a conversation with a stranger about the issue over the internet and they told me that Catholicism is one of the biggest deceptions that exists. They said that confession isn't Biblical and that praying to Mary or the saints is idolatry. I just need something good to reply to her, because I couldn't answer it myself.

Thanks if you're willing to answer my questions.

Co…

MHFM: The stranger is wrong. This section from our book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church, covers your question about Mary: The Bible teaches Mary's Immaculate Conception, Perpetual Virginity, Bodily Assumption and more [PDF]. There are also sections on confession and praying to saints.

Martial Arts

Dear Brothers,

I would like to clarify things again… In this quote of Pope Leo XIII "Pope Leo XIII, Pastoralis Officii (#1), Sept. 12, 1891: “Clearly, divine law, both that which is known by the light of reason and that which is revealed in Sacred Scripture, strictly forbids anyone, outside of public cause, to kill or wound a man unless compelled to do so in self-defense.” He said so in the last sentence that if a man is compelled to do so in self defense then does that mean that it is acceptable to practice martial arts as a means of self defense? I would agree with you if you say no because most of these martial arts are rooted in Shintoism and budhism.

Sincerely and God speed,
Tristan

MHFM: It would not be forbidden to know or practice martial arts maneuvers, as long as they are divorced from any spiritual elements. However, we would not recommend spending significant time doing so, unless it’s your recreational or exercise activity.

Outrage

MHFM: This is from our News & Commentary section: Conversion Therapy California Ban: Bill To Ban Gay Reparative Therapy Passes Senate This is a total outrage! It shows that the Devil is moving at breakneck speed to push total acceptance of homosexuality in every facet of society. At this pace, biblical opposition to homosexuality will soon be illegal. It’s remarkable how much influence the homosexuals have when we consider that, while the evil influences that cause homosexuality are obviously more prevalent today, homosexuals are still in the great minority. Their profound sway in the world at this time – the world which is an enemy of God (James 4:4) – can only be ascribed to demonic forces.

Sex-selective abortion

Subject: sex selection abortion

Today's hot issue with the phony conservatives is the discovery that Planned Parenthood Clinics don't care if a woman chooses to abort her baby because it is a girl, not a boy. O'Reilly declares "that's what they do in China!". Talk about not seeing the forest through the trees! Here we've been slaughtering babies for any reason what so ever, for some 40 years, as it is a sacred "privacy right" to murder your child; the illegality of large sodas in NY, lest you get too fat, notwithstanding. But kill your baby just because she is a girl? O the humanity!

It is truly a "Twilight Zone" like phenomenon, the whole debate. I suppose the smarts among the "prolifers" think that this argument, though logically imperfect, is a cunning tactic which will force people to look afresh at the whole abortion issue. But the double edged sword of moral compromise cuts just as easily the other way, because the essential premise of their argument doesn't attack the intrinsic evil of murder, but rather tries to make the central evil one of sex discrimination, which in fact IS NOT intrinsically evil. It is rather sensible and just to make distinctions between men and women in many regards. So in the long run, this illogical argument will be turned against justice, (perhaps used to justify say women in combat) no babies will be saved, and moral illiteracy and confusion will increase. It just keeps getting dumber and dumber. I am ever amazed by it.

Comment

Subject: Oscar with the "deist" friend

Dear MHFM:

Oscar wrote to you about his "deist" friend and said the following:

"I have a friend who somewhat believes in a God, but doesn't believe in any religion as the correct one (by 'somewhat believes in God' I mean that this person is sort of a deist, that there is a God but that there is no one true path to Him)."

Oscar should question his friend in detail as to how he came to the conclusions that "no religion is the correct one" and how there is "no one true path" to Him. It is very important for Oscar to point out to his friend that it is completely irresponsible, illogical and unwise to arrive at such "conclusions" without careful and exhaustive research and analysis. The reason being that if his friend is wrong (which he is) then the consequences are eternal.

Oscar should point out that his friend (like most people) has spent much more time on trivial (and relatively trivial) pursuits and past times… than he has investigating the truth about religion. In all likelihood, Oscar's friend is just parroting what his friends, family or schools have "taught" him, and he has not given any real thought to what he is saying.

If Oscar's friend has half a brain or an ounce of good will, he will realize the idiocy of believing such things without at least doing his homework first, and then act accordingly.

Pillars

Dear Brothers,

As Todd had commented on the towers, I thought I'd follow-up with the fact that the word "pillar" is mentioned in the bible 32 times and the word "pillars" is mentioned 76 times. The NY city twin towers were made more famous for years to come, after they fell into the ground as they became non-visible to the eye. The wake-up call sent out that day, was heard around the world and acknowledged by only a few as a warning of the end times. It's possible the incident was allowed to bring attention to the real pillars that are unseen in this evil world, and that being Christ, His Church and the other pillars that hold up the Church as mentioned in "The Book of Destiny" below.

"The word "pillar" might allude to various things in the Old testament but is used in a purely allegorical sense in the New. The apostles are pillars (Gal II.9); the Church itself is a pillar (1 Tim. III. 15). St. Clement employs the same metaphor (Clem. V.) when writing of the "greatest and most righteous pillars"' which seem to be SS. Peter and Paul. The pillar is built into the church and remains an irremovable and integral part of the building giving it stability and beauty. If anyone is made a pillar in the Church, he will remain there as long as the Church stands. With His own hand, Christ will inscribe on each pillar in His Temple the name of God, the name of the New Jerusalem and His own new name." (The Book of Destiny, Rev. Herman Bernard Kramer, p.102)

May God continue to protect you and bless your works,

Majority

If I could give a quick response to V's email, it seems V is unsure about the truth because MHFM, is in a minority position compared to the rest of the world.

Matthew 7:14 How narrow is the gate, and strait is the way that leadeth to life: and few there are that find it!

Luke 13:23-24 And a certain man said to him: Lord, are they few that are saved? But he said to them: Strive to enter by the narrow gate; for many, I say to you, shall seek to enter, and shall not be able.

Saint Anselm: “If thou wouldst be certain of being in the number of the elect, strive to be one of the few, not of the many. And if thou wouldst be quite sure of thy salvation, strive to be among the fewest of the few… Do not follow the great majority of mankind, but follow those who enter upon the narrow way, who renounce the world, who give themselves to prayer, and who never relax their efforts by day or by night, that they may attain everlasting blessedness.” (Fr. Martin Von Cochem, The Four Last Things, p. 221.)

1 Peter 3:20 Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water.

The Truth is never found with the majority, otherwise they would not be going to hell.

Todd

MHFM: “Thou shalt not follow the multitude to do evil: neither shalt thou yield in judgment, to the opinion of the most part, to stray from the truth.” (Exodus 23:2)

St. Augustine (c. 413): “Therefore, because you have been made members of Christ I must warn you; for I fear dangers for you, and not alone from those who are pagans, not alone from the Jews, and not so much from the heretics as from bad Catholics. Choose from among the people of God those you would imitate. For if you wish to imitate the multitude, you shall not then be among the few who shall enter in by the narrow way.”

Center

Dear MHFM,

I was just thinking how Christ is the center of all history and everything reflects Him and His one true church. Tragically the comparisons today are mainly in the evils of the world. You know how we have not had a real Pope since Pius XII. Isn't it strange how around the same time and continuing until now we haven't really had a truly elected president in this secular government either. Kennedy was basically our last real president and he warned us in a famous and rare last speech that there were dark forces and secret societies that were really controlling our government now and then a week later he was assassinated. I don't and I definitely don't think that you think that was a coincidence. He was definitely the last independently minded president and some of the presidents that came after him were also not really elected which is a proven fact about the W Bush "presidency". Every one after Kennedy was either instated by Bilderberg and the Trilateral Commission or totally controlled or both. It just goes to show as you've pointed out in your… research that when Our Lord's one true church loses the influence it had it’s not long before all other secular governments become the hellish police states that they have become. Because the one true Catholic Church has always been the only force in the world that was keeping the world from turning into the cesspool it is now. What a terrible time in world history this is! THESE ARE THE DARK AGES!!!

God Bless,
Nathan Barton

MHFM: This is a very interesting short speech by JFK on the conspiracy and secret societies: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xhZk8ronces Considering this, it’s not at all surprising that he was killed.

Person

Dear MHFM,

I have friend who somewhat believes in a God, but doesn't believe in any religion as the correct one (by 'somewhat believes in God' I mean that this person is sort of a deist, that there is a God but that there is no one true path to Him). This person doesn"t believe in an afterlife either. This person believes in science and in evolution. This person also believes all the hoaxes and lies that the freemasons release such as the 9/11 hoax, the "death" of Bin Laden, etc.

I was wondering: How can I convert this person? I want to try to convert him to the Traditional Catholic Faith, but I don't know where to begin since he comes from a family that doesn't practice any religion.

What should I do? Any advice would be really helpful.

Thank you for your time,
Oscar

MHFM: You could show him the videos that we have disproving evolution, and demonstrating miraculous aspects of the faith (Creation and Miracles; Information Proves God; Miraculous Image of Guadalupe; etc.). You could also show him the video documentaries about 9/11: to hopefully make him realize that he has been deceived. If he rejects that information (and we have a number of videos relevant to the aforementioned issues), then he’s of bad will. To soften his heart, you could also try to get him to pray the Our Father and the Hail Mary. The video, Rock-n-Roll Sorcerers of the New Age Revolution (available from our store), is also good for complete pagans to see. It should convince a person that the Devil exists and is active. But you can only lead a horse to water; you can’t make him drink.

Comment

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

… The Most Holy Rosary faithfully recited is a treasure trove and source of immense graces.

P.S. A Russian news article admits that the Our Lord Jesus Christ died in 33 A.D. according to the scientific evidence. This is just a bit more proof of Russia converting from its former ways of actively persecuting the Catholic Church.

http://en.rian.ru/science/20120526/173689533.html

Topics

Thank you for the response. I admit that I am currently living in sin and need to repent. I am exploring these topics to gain an understanding of the faith, why Jesus died for our sins and all the evidence supporting the Catholic faith. As a recently graduated law student, I feel compelled to consider both sides of arguments.

This is the approach I took with the position of the Sedevacantists. Although you hold a "minority position" I listened with an open-mind and heart. It is an incredibly persuasive position. As you say, the truth is irrefutable…

Thank You,

V…

Ephesus

MHFM: This is a somewhat interesting quote about Ephesus, and perhaps why St. Paul spent so much time there.

“The city held a strategic location of inestimable importance. In terms of both land and sea routes, Ephesus was key. This is why the emperor’s college of messengers was based in this city. Ephesus was the communications hub for almost every part of Asia. This may help explain why Paul spent nearly three years there, as he was in the communication business in a major way. It also may explain Revelation 1-2, which lists seven churches all on the main road out of Ephesus… Ephesus’s religious-tourist trade [involved] the world-famous temple of Artemis [or Temple of Diana]... That temple was one of the seven wonders of the ancient world… The importance of Ephesus for the Pauline mission should not be underestimated. It turns out to be the last place where he spent the longest time working, and indeed, it was the last place where he worked at length as a free man.” (Ben Witherington, New Testament History, pp. 280-281.)

Subject: NFP Video

Dear Brothers,

Great job on the new NFP video. You succinctly addressed many points that I’ve been trying to intelligently verbalize for quite some time. I’ll be passing this video on. NFP is certainly diabolical and the fact that people have to resort to mental gymnastics to justify and defend it only points to their ill will. I have never seen an apology for nfp that wasn’t rife with emotionalism, e.g. how it enables spouses to fully give themselves to each other (whatever that nonsense means) and appeals to women’s “health issues”.

Great job and God bless you both,

Children

Subject: Children

Dear MHFM:

As usual, great job on the NFP video. Since I have not been involved in the N.O. pseudo-church for all these years, I was not aware that NFP was promoted by it! Anyone with a modicum of sense knows and can see that if one avoids children, this is birth control. Having grown up in Mexico, I have known of the rhythm method and people have always called it for what it is, a contraceptive, albeit a chemical-free one.

Before my conversion to the true faith as a result of your analyses and explanation of what happened in the late 50s and early 60s, I practiced the rhythm method sporadically before marriage, and have now added it to my long list of sins against God for which I fervently wish to pray, though I know I come short....

In Christ and his Immaculate Mother Mary forever,

New Video Posted

MHFM: This is a new video.

NFP: A Birth Control Deception [video]

This video covers Natural Family Planning. This is an issue of extraordinary importance, since almost all people in the world use either artificial contraception or NFP. A lot of new material is covered in this video: quotes from the fathers of the Church, answers to objections, interesting video clips, and much more. Important issues are dealt with from beginning to end, and some of the most interesting parts come in the last 20-30 minutes. Thus, we strongly recommend that people watch this video all the way through.

NFP

Your NFP video is one of your best. It was important for you to distinguish between the infallible document of Pius XI and the fallible speech given by Pius XII. While many women correctly state they do not want to take chemical contraceptives, they miss the point that as married people, they must be open to children.

My wife has a rare neurological disorder which causes her to walk poorly and have trouble taking care of our 18 month old. Before our son was born, we did not worry about having a baby or not for nine years of marriage. My wife (please pray for her conversion) wanted to practice a version of NFP. I told her I could not support it. "God does not give you something (or children) you can't handle." I told her this and told her I believe it. Very few people actually believe that even though people say it… she dropped her NFP position and we conceived our second child… and is due in November. While we are anxious about many things, I will put my trust in God that He wants us to have this second baby and will give us what we need to raise him-her well.

My wife's divorced and remarried step-mother found out about our new child and she said with her bad will "That is interesting" Clearly, she (an Episcopal) lacks the faith. People who practice NFP violate the First Commandment (along with the Sixth and the Fifth) as they think they are gods and decide when and if they will have children. Anyone who wants to marry (especially as a real Catholic) should be required to watch this video.

Also, I was born 10 months after my parents were married. Thank God my parents are not the NFP people in the video. I would have been an inconvenience to them and would never have existed, nor my son and the child on the way. This video is a tune up for those with the true faith in God.

Marriage

Hello brothers,

My name is Sergio, I'm 23 and I've only recently been awakened to my catholic faith… After coming to the realization of the truth by your help which I thank God abundantly for. I wanted to ask, I have fallin in love with a fellow catholic and we both are as devotioned to God and our True Catholic teachings as we can be, but I wanted to know, when is one considered ready for matrimony? How does one know it is God’s will to get married and procreate, I believe it to be God’s hand who has brought us both together during such a time of darkness and deception. Any helpful advice or supplicational prayer would be appreciated. May God continue to strengthen you and your fight for the bringing of truth.

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. To be considered ready for matrimony, the two people would have to first and foremost hold the true Catholic faith and the correct positions on the core issues in our day. That includes rejecting and not supporting the many heretical positions, groups and individuals out there. Second, the two should have a prayer life, including the Rosary, which they intend to continue after they marry. Third, they would have to possess a basic understanding of the obligations of marriage. That’s essentially a recognition and understanding that all forms of birth control (including NFP) are forbidden. You probably realize that fact. You should also pray to God and Our Lady, asking that you fulfill God’s will in your life, and that you know whether you should pursue marriage. If you do so sincerely and with faith, you will get a feeling about the way God wants you to go in your life. Three Hail Marys for specific intentions is very effective. Finally, you should have the ability to support yourself, your wife and a future family before entering marriage.

Marriage

Dear Brothers,

What do I do now? Where is there a church that has the true service? I am at a loss. I live in a small town we have 2 Catholic Churches and I have attended both of them. They both have the new mass. When I ask the priest when will they have a Latin Mass, they didn't seem to have an answer.

I am very happy that I found you on the internet. I am learning so much.

Sincerely yours,

Rita Johnson

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. You would have to get out of the New Mass. It’s invalid and must not be attended. This video covers that matter: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gD9a2uJWc8c&list=PLD841087C099E5B90&index=4&feature=plcp

Before receiving sacraments, one must reach the point where one is committed never to attend the New Mass again, believes in Outside the Church There is No Salvation without exception (no “baptism of desire”), rejects NFP, won’t support any heretical priests, etc. That’s explained in this file: Where to go to Mass or confession today?. People should also make the traditional profession of faith from the Council of Trent, which can be accessed from the aforementioned file. Once a person is convinced on all relevant matters, we can help that person with possible locations for receiving sacraments. However, the options for receiving true sacraments in our day are becoming more and more limited as a result of the extent of the apostasy. We also recommend people to pray the Rosary each day, all 15 decades if possible.

Comment

Brother Peter and Brother Michael,

First, I would like to thank you for your incredible depth and array of films available on Youtube. They are very informative and ring true with me. I was raised Catholic and attended Catholic school through highschool…

Much of your criticism of the current Catholic church and views on the infiltration of Freemasons/Anti-popes/Satanic worship is eye-opening. It is difficult to counter. Yet, I am open-minded enough to admit my ignorance and review your evidence fully. It is persuasive…

Sincerely,
Vincent Vitatoe

MHFM: We are glad you are considering the information. It’s important to distinguish between the post-Vatican II structure, which is not the Catholic Church, and the true Catholic Church – which consists of the remnant of true traditional Catholics who maintain the faith. Thus, criticism of the former entity is not criticism of the Catholic Church.

Across

I came across your website and have been raised catholic but have strayed away from the faith because I was aware of the dogmas that are going on.....but I still have total faith. Is there a church or monastery in my area that is not affiliated with the vatican 2... a branch like yourselves..... Thank You-...........my name is Mike

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. No, the churches and monasteries in your area are heretical and accept Vatican II. The apostasy is widespread, as you will see as you continue to look at the material on the website.

Onan

Subject: Apologies to Onan

Dear MHFM:

Any "Catholic" who claims that NFP is morally acceptable would have to agree that Onan (Genesis 38) would not have been struck dead had he simply practiced NFP instead of "Onanism". They would also have to concede that Onan was a victim of scientifically-ignorant times. For if only the science of 4000 years ago had been "advanced" enough, then Onan would have had the "morally acceptable" NFP method available to him. (Sorry Onan, and every other person who died before 1900 A.D. or so.)

I think this "Onan-challenge" is an interesting honesty test for NFP-proponents. The inevitable "squirming" and logic-bending that is required to justify this untenable position is a real bad-will indicator.

Ironically, modern NFP is statistically more effective at preventing conception than "Onanism", thus Onan was actually "more open to life" than NFP-practitioners are.

As I sat listening to Brother Peter's… presentation on the satanic behavior of NFP and thinking about all the other presentations that Brother's Michael and Peter have made, it came to my mind the promises made to St. Benedict and I am amazed at seeing the promises being put into action.

Promises made to St. Benedict regarding the destiny of his Benedictine order and that of its friends and enemies:

1) His order will continue to exist to the End of the World.
2) It will, at the End of the World, in the final battle, render great services to the holy Church and confirm many in the faith. . . . .

I wanted to bring out a point on a visional {picture} that Brother Peter used a number of times throughout the presentation and that was the cycle beads that are used in NFP. I don't think it's by chance, their idea of using beads to chart this evil behavior and in fact I believe it represents the antithesis of the Rosary, as we know the Rosary represents Life itself, that being the story of Salvation {Incarnation, Life, Death, Resurrection of Jesus Christ}. The cycle beads represent the prevention of new life and the destruction of the souls of the husband and the wife and the corruption of their family {death}.

The soldiers of the reign of the antichrist actually tell you it is satanic, if you look at the picture carefully the two hands held together side by side, holding the beads in a circular shape in the palms of the hands, you see the satanic peace symbol, the vertical beam of the upside down broken cross is created by bringing the hands together side by side and the two lower joints in the pinky fingers show the inverted broken cross beam.

I agree with Tom Miles statement in his email "I truly believe the short reign of peace for the world promised by Our Lady of Fatima ended on 9/11/01 when the twin towers fell". It made me think of St. Don Bosco's dream, The Two Pillars of a Safe Harbor in Life, the one Pillar which represents Jesus in the Eucharist, which is the taller Pillar and the other Pillar represents Our Lady, this Pillar is a little shorter. With the twin towers, tower 1 was 1368 ft. tall and tower 2 was 1362 ft. tall, was this satan's symbolic attempt to destroy the Two Pillars of a Safe Harbor in Life, I believe so!...

Position

Subject: NFP Video

Dear Brothers:

Your NFP video is another outstanding work about which people have been sending in some insightful comments. I will only add that the double-minded NFP position of "a child is a blessing, yes, but it's not really a blessing unless and until we way so" reminded me of that other double-minded position often articulated by the SSPX and other false Catholics: "There is no salvation outside of the Church -- yes, that's true -- but it is certain that people outside of the Church can be saved." And my hair almost stood on end when I heard the NFP promoters compare the use of this birth control to Christ's sacrifice on the Cross! It doesn't get more evil than that. Thank you for this important and revealing video; it is yet another eye-opening glimpse into that den of iniquity that is the Vatican II church.

Talk

Subject: NFP Primary

Dear MHFM, Great video for all men to watch. Obviously, the primary end with NFP is birth control and self satisfaction. When one of the couples talks about giving to themselves more fully because of NFP, I felt a little more disgusted than with the other NFP promoters comments. That's like a tight little circle of self and partner idolizing. It fits well with the religion of man. Another disturbing twisting of the primary is the "men" in these videos. You can clearly see who the primary or leader of the "family" is. The men look like sheep and the women look like wolves, it's bizarre. The whole thing is so twisted, it's hard to know where to start!

Thank you MHFM, Ave Maria

Refute

Subject: NFP video

Dear Brothers,

Thank you for the intensely interesting video refuting the diabolical deception of NFP. The proponents of this doctrine of death constantly refute themselves out of their own mouth because they know that what they are doing is wrong and is against the natural law. They openly lie and contradict themselves over and over again. Thank you also for the clear explanation about the Magisterial teaching against NFP, as well as the non-Magisterial sources that heretics cite to try and justify the mortal sin of NFP. NFP is one of the SSPX and other false traditionalist groups' heresies, and the consequences are plain to see; They end up putting nature above God, and their own will and desire above God's Most Holy Will. Their false triune god is man, the devil and them self. It is not surprising then that they cannot conceive of the fact that they are following antichrist antipopes, since they prevent the conception of natural life by means of NFP, as well as the conception of supernatural life by means of the heresy of "baptism of desire." NFP is like "invincible ignorance" where they deliberately ignore the truth so as to prevent life, while kidding themselves that they are pro-life. It is a total frustration of God's will and of natural processes, so it is not hard to see why it is deserving of eternal hell because their decision to prevent life, and to prevent another soul from beholding God in Heaven in the Eternal Beatific Vision of the Holy Trinity, is infinite and eternal in malice. It is outrageous that the NFP practitioners liken their sin to Jesus Christ dying on the cross, as if their sin were some kind of heroic sacrifice… The last clip shows that it is all about money for them, since they say that every month they ask themselves, "do we have enough money or don't we have the money?...Are we comfortable?" NFP is all about self-will, self-intention and self-desire, as is Satanism viz. Aleister Crowley's Gnostic "Thelema," meaning "will, desire, intention." If it were up to the NFP heretics, the Word of God would never have Incarnated, Suffered or been Crucified, since that involved doing God the Father's will rather than His own human will (though Christ had two wills, since He had two natures and two nativities).

Matthew 26:39 - "And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt."

Matthew 7:21 - "Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven."

God Bless,

Forth

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

Thank you for the new video setting forth the teaching of Christianity on the detestable practice of limiting babies. As Catholics, we have always been the perennial defenders of the defenseless, the oppressed, and champion of the innocent and weakest in society. The beasts of lust just phase out babies that were meant to be. This is a Satanic act. In the infinite evil of abortion, babies are killed after having had an existence however short; but in the euphemistically called "natural" family planning, the babies don't even have a chance at life. It has eternal and infinite, unspeakable, inexpressible, beyond description, and immeasurably mind boggling consequences. In their inhuman, perverse, and false love, they don't realize Matrimony is the Office of Motherhood, and it is to sin against it to believe and do these things (NFP).

It goes to show that these mortal sinners who are not trying to come out of mortal sin are completely cold to the love of neighbor; their hearts are so cold, have grown so cold that it doesn't even phase them at all, when they heartlessly and methodically avoid babies. They decide not to have babies, arbitrarily; babies that were meant to come according to the Order and Providence of God. As you said "having strayed from God's Faith and having resisted His Will, they have become blind to the depths of Satan and how the enemy of mankind deceives.” …

Hebrews 13:4 “May marriage be honorable in every way, and may the marriage bed be immaculate. For God will judge fornicators and adulterers.”

Ephesians 5:12 “For the things that are done by them in secret are shameful, even to mention.”

There is also the so called "theology of the body" in the Vatican II sect, which is the deification of human love - the worship of the self - a custom so frequent among the pagans (the non-Catholics). It reminded me how on EWTN, Novus Ordites so casually use the word that Pope Pius XI called 'disgusting', while expressing and justifying their indecent intentions.

Amazing video on NFP… Showed NFP to be nothing but sinful birth control. Answered all my technical questions on the issue. Bottom line, NFP users have no trust in God.

NFP

Dear Brothers in Christ,

Thank you for the excellent video on the so-called Natural Family Planning. You have proved beyond any reasonable doubt that this method is mortally sinful. I would like to add a few comments. First, the term "Natural Family Planning" is forged by the Devil so that it tacitly suggests that the method is "natural" and therefore could not be in opposition to God's will. While we should respect the nature as God's creation and the proof of His omnipotence and beauty, we should never forget that the creation is not equal to God and that the nature could never be a valid substitution for God. To equalize nature and God constitutes paganism, atheism, pantheism and many more "isms" we can see in this dark world. That is why the pagans, atheists and the adherents of every false religion have no problem with accepting NFP. If there are some adherents of NFP and purported followers of God's will, who do not yet completely despise honesty, I would like to ask them if they deeply in their hearts think that their beloved method NFP could rightfully be named as "Family Planning by God". Second, by using the weakness of the last Pope, Pio XII, the Devil succeeded to put the label "Catholic" on the NFP. The function of this hidden and yet visible label is to deceive the Catholics, so that they could falsely think that the method is approved by God.

Third, while we are not forbidden to have some plans and desires, we must not be forgetful about the fact that our desires and plans should be in accordance to God's will. We do not have the right to desire and plan anything in opposition to God's will. The word "planning" in NFP tacitly suggests that we do have that right, since the notion of planning is inseparably connected with the notion of family--the notion instituted by God's design through the sacrament of marriage.

As you've pointed out in your video, the infallible test by which we can see that the matter comes from the Devil are the inherent contradictions. The "Catholic" couples using the NFP say that they are open to life, to God's will, and yet they are doing something to impede the very will. They admit that the pregnancy is a blessing, and yet they are doing something to avoid the very same blessing. That's incredible and amazing. Who would try to avoid God's blessing? The answer to this rhetorical question is obvious.

Dearest Mother of God and St. Joseph, guard the MHFM against all their enemies, and pray for all true Catholics.

Refuting

I just finished watching the new video refuting NFP. It is a wonderful, wonderful video! The Church's teaching is laid out very clearly, and all the horrible objections are crushed by the undeniable truth. Although the video was excellent, I became sick to my stomach while watching it because the clips showing couples justifying NFP was like nasty stinking vomit spewing right out of hell. It was so obviously evil, yet the people were acting as if NFP was heaven sent… I am shocked at the lack of willingness to see and stand for the truth while they claim to be Catholic. I know that God creates everything with perfect order…

What is reasonable about doing something which deliberately frustrates good fruit from growing? The answer is: Nothing! That would be like a farmer who buys fertile land and also buys the right seed to sow in his field, but then refuses to plant the seed in the soil, yet still considers himself a good farmer who looks forward to a rich harvest… How can it be love since the intention to avoid children is clearly selfish? In NFP, a couple is willing to distrust God and deprive life of the opportunity to even begin, yet they will call this love? What falsity! What hypocrisy! Even the atheists are more honest than those "Catholics" who accept and promote NFP. Atheists do not hide NFP behind false terms and theology. They call it what it is--PURE BIRTH CONTROL. What sad times we live in. Still, as Christ promised, the light of God is still burning brightly in some places. Thank you so much for your video. Hopefully, some people using NFP will open their eyes, stop lying to themselves, repent, and begin to truly trust in God and His plan.

God bless MHFM,

Jaclyn

Video

I'd like to commend you on your recent video "NFP: A birth control deception". Thank-you for taking the time to put together a well-thought out and professional video on such a modern deception. Amazing how modernism had taken off after the message of Our Lady of La Salette in the mid-1800's and the last three valid Popes. Possibly the 100 years (1864-1964) promised to Satan in order to take over… as overheard by Pope Leo XIII and mentioned in his pray to Saint Michael concerning the great Apostasy in Rome. Although the last three valid Popes carried the name of Pope Pius (X, XI, and XII), the strong teachings of Pope Pius XI against NFP and other matters had become so watered down by 1959, especially by Pope Pius XII, that the gates of hell were opened for the great revolution of the spiritually bankrupted modern Vatican II counter-church. I truly believe the short reign of peace for the world promised by Our Lady of Fatima ended on 9/11/01 when the twin towers fell, as can be seen by the massive global tyranny that has evolved within the governments, banks and false Christian sects that includes the Vatican II church.

May God continue to Bless your works,

Tom Miles

Reading

Subject: BC / AD & BCE / CE

Dear brothers,

As I was reading the message about the world and its calendar and how we have Pope Gregory XIII and The Church to thank for it and how for many centuries we have been using the BC & AD terminology. We all know why it is that we use these terms BC & AD it refers to the central event in all the history of the universe, the birth of God the Son Almighty himself as a lowly human. In recent years you have had secularists using (and trying to force on the world) that BCE & CE stuff in order to attempt to erase Christ from every facet of life so the pagans (everybody outside the Catholic Church) don't feel bad about being idolaters and followers of Satan. Well, I have to ask them exactly what makes them still make this year’s date 2012? What exactly happened around 2,012 years ago that they are commemorating? Nothing!...that's what. Therefore since they are commemorating nothing the BCE / CE dating then makes no sense, I guess it was just picked at "random". I also recommend whenever anyone asks what BCE or CE means to tell them it means BEFORE THE CHRISTIAN ERA & THE CHRISTIAN ERA. In this way these heathens can be made to realize that they can never escape Christ in this world or the next no matter how hard they try to ignore or deny him or what they try to change.

Report

Subject: BBC Report

Dear Brothers,

Here’s a hilarious report from the BBC: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-18207323. It shows how the roots of so-called “anti-semitism” cannot even now be discussed in British schools. According to Michael Gove, the British Education Secretary, “anti-semitism”, however defined, is so utterly irrational that it defies any attempt at academic analysis. And to encourage students to discuss it in an exam is “bizarre” and “insensitive”! It shouldn’t come as any surprise that Michael Gove is a self-confessed zionist and “friend of Israel”.

Clearly, AQA should go on the offensive here, not the defensive. They should question Gove’s suitability for his post in view of his manifest deference to Jewish lobby groups and his patently hypocritical arguments. Once an education minister starts abusing his office in this ridiculous, anti-intellectual, totalitarian manner, it’s time for him to go!

I shall definitely be discussing this issue with my students next week!

World

Dear MHFM,

The world fails to appreciate and depends on the legacy of Pope Gregory XIII and his calendar which is still in force today. It is also called the 'Christian Calendar' and was put into force by his Papal Bull “Inter gravissimas pastoralis officii nostri curas” ("Among the most serious duties of our pastoral office…") on February 24, 1582 and introduced the dating clauses Anno Incarnationis Dominicae (In the Year of the Incarnation of Our Lord) and ‘Anno à Natiuitate Domini nostri Iesu Christi’ (“In the year from the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ”). It introduced 12 months and the correct dates and days, etc.

The creation and use of the Gregorian Calendar is because of the inaccuracy of the Julian System. Due to the discrepancies, the Julian calendar (introduced by Julius Caesar 46 B.C.) was inaccurate and over 11 minutes forward. Consequently, due to the obvious astronomical errors, 10 days had to be dropped, the number of leap years reduced, and great engagements and calculations were made to ensure discrepancies never appear.

Our units of temporal measurement, from seconds on up to months, are so complicated, asymmetrical and intricate that the world had to turn to the Church, so as to make a coherent accurate reckoning of units, possible. The Church readily demonstrated its credentials and competence in matters dedicated to and concerning the measurement of history and time, for the Our Lord Jesus Christ is the God of history as it were, and everything revolves around Him and centered upon Him nicely. So modern “science” realizes that to be astronomically practical, it must readily embrace the correct calendar – the Christian Calendar.

The Gregorian Calendar is the predominant international standard today. It is the internationally accepted civil calendar that was first adopted in 1582. It is also called ‘the civil calendar’ and ‘the Western Calendar.’ This is the calendar accepted by science. That the Church has a proper understanding of astronomy, is readily obvious, that even the so called self proclaimed ‘doctors’ of modern “science “today are in obeisance to it and rely on it greatly. Christianity knows things better, and sets in motion, as it were, through the Our Lord Jesus Christ, the procurement of benefits for mankind at large, that even the sounder part of the enemies of Christianity admit this. It seems that the Popes named Gregory have left permanent marks upon Christianity and the entire world.

So right now it is ‘In the Year of the Incarnation of Our Lord 2012’

Carbon Tax

Subject: Carbon Tax

Dear Brothers,

Australian businesses will be fined for making errors in judgment relating to the Satanic Carbon Tax:

"The carbon tax – what the ACCC says you can and can’t do:

* A hair salon displays a new price list from July 1 saying all services will increase by 10 per cent due to the carbon price. It is aware input costs have risen such as rent, wages and cost of products. It estimates electricity costs will rise by about 4 per cent because of the carbon price.

ACCC Verdict: the salon would be overstating the impact of the carbon price and its claim is misleading." (http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/more-news/dont-serve-carbon-lies/story-fn7x8me2-1226366243071)

This does not mean that Australians cannot criticize the Carbon Tax, as some dishonest journalists have said (e.g. http://www.infowars.com/australians-face-huge-fines-for-speaking-ill-of-new-carbon-tax/), but rather that if businesses advertise or tell their customers inaccurate information they will be fined. It basically means that if the businesses mention the Carbon Tax at all in their advertizing, then the wrath of the "Almighty-Government-God" will strike them down! The problem of course is that the whole tax is misleading, inaccurate and an error in judgment - a New World Order scam - yet the government doesn't get fined or held accountable because at the end of the day, Australia is still run by Britain. They could only get away with it in Australia because we are so geographically isolated. It proves that the Illuminati are nothing more than cowardly criminals.

Pope St. Pius V, Regnans in Excelsis, Excommunicating Elizabeth I of England: "3. We, seeing impieties and crimes multiplied one upon another the persecution of the faithful and afflictions of religion daily growing more severe under the guidance and by the activity of the said Elizabeth - and recognizing that her mind is so fixed and set that she has not only despised the pious prayers and admonitions with which Catholic princes have tried to cure and convert her but has not even permitted the nuncios sent to her in this matter by this See to cross into England, are compelled by necessity to take up against her the weapons of justice, though we cannot forbear to regret that we should be forced to turn, upon one whose ancestors have so well deserved of the Christian community. Therefore, resting upon the authority of Him whose pleasure it was to place us (though unequal to such a burden) upon this supreme justice-seat, we do out of the fullness of our apostolic power declare the foresaid Elizabeth to be a heretic and favourer of heretics, and her adherents in the matters aforesaid to have incurred the sentence of excommunication and to be cut off from the unity of the body of Christ."

God Bless,

Chris White

Comment

Dear Brothers:

If the reins of government in what appears to be the Catholic Church have been allowed by God to fall into the hands of Satan, I guess we should not be surprised that the governments of the world are also in the hands of Satan. "Because all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her." (Apoc. 18:3)

In the Protestant revolt against God, men desired to throw off the sweet yoke of Christ and His Church in the name of that false "freedom" which, centuries later, would give rise to Antichrist John Paul II and the Vatican II sect. All of the sound principles and doctrines that were taught by the true popes for centuries (which had the power to rightly order all aspects of both individual and national life) have been gradually discarded to the point where now, every last principle of morality and civility seems to be gone. The State has indeed been separated from the Church, and, as a result, mankind has become totally depraved and degraded. But no real surprise there: it's exactly what the true Catholic popes have always warned would happen when Man puts himself in the place of God by imagining that he (and not Christ) is the way, the truth and the life… this Antichrist Doctrine was explicitly taught by John Paul 2 who denied Christ in every way possible, and yet people calling themselves "Catholic" accept him as the legitimate Vicar of Christ. Can there be anything in the world that is worse than to be in union with Antichrist?

Abortion

Subject: Abortion

Reading Andrew's email and the Catholic quote of the day made me think of God's Mercy in regard to these aborted babies going to hell but not being tortured by fire but by other type of punishments. The very fact that God demands that you must be baptized, to be a member or inside the Catholic Church, the structure set up by Jesus Christ, if this is not done, it’s a simple fact that one dies outside of Salvation. One might ask, how could God allow this to happen to a baby, human beings born into this world are, by nature, children of Wrath {child of Adam}. Also God sees all things past, present and the future, all things before Him at once, so God sees the bad end that these babies would have made if they were allowed to live their life on earth, otherwise how could it be possible that God would make a statement like this found in Matthew 7:13-14, Matthew 22:14, Luke 10:2, Luke 13:23 etc. So by the very fact that they would have made a bad end, they weren't chosen to be baptized and even those that are baptized, many don't make it because they choose the allurements of the world, instead of God.

Ephesians 2:3 In which also we all conversed in time past, in the desires of our flesh, fulfilling the will of the flesh and of our thoughts, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest:

John 3:5 Jesus answered: Amen, amen I say to thee, unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

John 3:7 Wonder not, that I said to thee, you must be born again.

Matthew 3:16 And Jesus being baptized, forthwith came out of the water: and lo, the heavens were opened to him: and he saw the Spirit of God descending as a dove, and coming upon him.

Pope Eugene IV, The Council of Florence, Sess. 8, Exultate Deo, 1439: "Holy baptism, which is the gateway to the spiritual life, holds the first place among all the sacraments; through it we are made members of Christ and of the body of the Church. And since death entered the universe through the first man, ‘unless we are born of water and the Spirit, we cannot,’ as the Truth says, ‘enter into the kingdom of heaven’ [John 3:5]. The matter of this sacrament is real and natural water."

Pope Pius XI, Quas Primas (# 15), Dec. 11, 1925 (to all patriarchs, primates, archbishops, and bishops): "Indeed this kingdom is presented in the Gospels as such, into which men prepare to enter by doing penance; moreover, they cannot enter it except through faith and baptism, which, although an external rite, yet signifies and effects an interior regeneration." {child of God}

Todd

Said

It needs to also be said when it comes to abortion, that it is demonically inspired, instituted and supported by Satan and all the legions of Hell. It is Satanic to the core in its foundation and continuation and I have heard it said before from the lips of videotaped Satanists that there are abortion "doctors" who are Satanists who perform abortions because they see it as a way to offer human sacrifices to Satan legally and perpetually to curry his favor more than any other of his followers and get paid for it to boot.

It has also been said by them that they will intentionally get themselves impregnated for the express and specific reason of having an abortion so they are able to make a human sacrifice to Satan and have it be legal. That's right… they get themselves intentionally pregnant with the full predetermined intention of killing the child in a legal human sacrifice ritual, that their government or businesses insurance will pay for.

Typical

Subject: Bad-willed heretic

Dear Brothers,

The bad-willed heretic who wrote in doesn't appear believe in the dogma, outside the Catholic Church there is not salvation. It is typical of supporters of the Vatican II Antipopes to get that wrong, since that's what the whole Last Days apostasy is about. It should be clear to anyone with the faculty of reason that the Catholic Church on Earth is a type of Heaven, in contrast to the world which is a type of Hell. If one does not hold to the same truths as does Heaven (dogmas), and if one does not avoid sin and stay holy like the Saints in Heaven, then one will go to Hell. Yet in the Vatican II sect, there are no such boundaries between Heaven and Hell, sin and grace, God and the Devil. In the Vatican II sect it is one gigantic soup of "order from chaos" (viz. "evolution" science fiction/heresy). And since MHFM is the only place that has really stood up for the dogmas, outside the Catholic Church there is no salvation, and the absolute necessity of water baptism (against the heresies of "baptism of desire/blood" and "invincible ignorance"), without compromising in other ways, those outside the Catholic Church, but who want to be seen as inside, rage against you and your works like the gates of hell that they are. What it boils down to is the Deicide of Jesus Christ. Antipope Benedict XVI evidently thinks it is necessary to continuously kill Jesus Christ over and over again, so that He can rise from death over and over again, in some kind of macabre Masonic "order from chaos" cycle or drama. Such is impossible of course because though Christ died in His human nature, and rose from death with the same human nature, He never suffered or died in His divine nature because God cannot suffer or die. Of course, we still call it Deicide, since Christ is one Person, just as we call the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. Every time Benedict XVI goes and commits heresy schism or apostasy, he attempts to kill Jesus Christ again, which is impossible, for Jesus Christ can never die again.

Osee 13:14 - "I will deliver them out of the hand of death. I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy death; O hell, I will be thy bite: comfort is hidden from my eyes."

John 11:25,26 - "Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live: And every one that liveth, and believeth in me, shall not die for ever. Believest thou this?"

Romans 6:8-12 - "Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live also together with Christ: Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him. For in that he died to sin, he died once; but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God: So do you also reckon, that you are dead to sin, but alive unto God, in Christ Jesus our Lord. Let no sin therefore reign in your mortal body, so as to obey the lusts thereof."

God Bless,

Bad will

… I really do understand what you guys are trying to do, but our Lord said Himself that there will always be tares along with the wheat in the Church (Matt 13:30). Even today's Mass reading about Paul's final announcement to the Church at Ephesus where he said to the congregation there that "savage wolves will come in not sparing the flock", "and men coming forward perveting the truth to draw disciples after them". But he never said to set up your own church (a la Luther et al). The popes have said and done extremely foolish and hideous things--no doubt. But like St. Paul said in 1 Thess. 5:21 I will "test everything and hold fast to what is good", what, in essence, you guys do. I have even left religious orders because of the ridiculousness I found in them (even one's that offer the latin mass!!!!!). The Lord Jesus knows my heart and by His power (and ONLY that ) He is holding His only true Church together…. Peace

MHFM: You are unfortunately a heretic. If you had any faith, which you don't, you would realize that Benedict XVI has set up his own Church and that he doesn't even believe in the Papacy. He has also agreed with the Lutherans on Justification. It’s an outrage that you presume to quote the Lord Jesus Christ, as you simultaneously defend heretics who teach that Christ is unnecessary. You obviously reject the Catholic dogma that heretics are automatically expelled from the Church.

You are deceived. You cannot recognize the Catholic Church in our day – and that the Vatican II Church does not represent it – simply because you don’t believe in the traditional teaching of the Church.

Cause

Dear Most Holy Family Monastery,

To be possessed can mean that Satan has gained mastery over the will so devastatingly that sinfulness passes beyond ordinary depravity in the world, and its cause must be sought in a power above the order of nature. To be possessed can mean that Satan has beclouded the intellect, so that the light of faith cannot illuminate it. To be possessed can mean that Satan has befuddled a person’s reason. What can properly describe the prerequisite condition in a man that decides to sell the organs of infants after their infanticide? What is even more madness, is that experimentation on slain infants is not only unnecessary, but it doesn’t help alleviate any condition whatsoever anyways (not that it would make it moral, but it just goes to show there is a darkness enveloping and underlying this abomination)…

I remember seeing a presentation by a former abortionist that committed more than 75,000 infanticides; of a real time ultra sound video showing a 12 week old baby girl in 1978, who was getting aborted. Before the infanticide occurred, the former abortionist began explaining the ultra sound footage, and the baby girl was actually sucking her thumb and moving in the womb, and when the abortionist’s suction tube tried getting the baby, the baby girl began moving violently and tried dodging the suction tube. Her heart raced from 140 beats per minute, to 200. Her mouth was actually open crying, and finally when the baby girl’s limbs were grabbed she let out a silent scream and the mouth could be seen wide open in agony, while she was ripped. Then the infanticide practitioner crushed the baby girls’ head with forceps. To further dehumanize the baby, instead of the head of the baby being called a head, it is instead called “number 1” -”the abortionist crushes number 1.” Infanticides and their accompaniment markets and experimentations are Satanic Rituals, there to venerate and pay homage to Satan. These rituals are unspeakable and unimaginable abominations…

Heretical priest

I am soooooooo unexplainably disgusted right now. In fact, I don't even know if I can eat.

… St. Cyril and Methodius Ukrainian Catholic church in St. Catharines, Ontario. This is the church where I had an unfriendly conversation with this priest a few weeks back. He relayed a personal opinion that denounced Brother Peter and Brother Michael Dimond to be OUTSIDE THE CATHOLIC CHURCH.

… this Father Bohdan Choly … began discussing the conversation we had a few weeks back (one week?). He asserted that he had discussed this Baptism of Desire refutation with a few elder priests and that he needs to know how obstinate I am in denying the Catholic Faith. (cant' remember his exact wording). Next, he begins slandering all views in opposition to Baptism of Desire, claiming that Baptism of Desire has always been taught by the Catholic Church.

… Next, he just continued uttering filth

Next, he began ridiculing that I'm ............ unto like a Protestant

Next, he began glorifying himself ....., chirping that he's studies theology for 7 years (?)

Next, he spat that 'the Brothers' are most likely guilty of misquoting.

I then asked him to state something specific that he found fault with. His response? THE ENTIRE BOOK IS A MISTAKE !!!! (referring to 'Outside the Catholic Church .....')… Next, he SPEWED THAT SOMEONE CAN BE BAPTIZED BY SAND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow !!!!!!!!!... Next, being quite aghast, I asked him to repeat this contention. He repeated it. Next, I told him that I would be quoting him. His eyes kinda shifted and he added that the Catholic church ......... in the 17th Century .......... allowed people to be baptized by SAND .......... in exceptional circumstances !!!!!! I was completely appalled and, after rebuking him .... nearly fainted in disgust…

MHFM: There are many horrible heretics out there. The heretic you mention (who should be avoided) does not understand or believe in the dogma Outside the Church There is No Salvation, and what he said about baptism in sand is heretical.

Thoughts

Subject: Thoughts

I watched your video on "death and the journey into hell". Based on the video it almost seems like one little false move by whomever and you will be damned. We'll never be perfect. We are all sinners until death. Based on how this world is now, I can see the thought of more going to hell then heaven. I've broken every commandment. I'm trying to stay away from sin but I still find myself suffering with the same sins. I pray to Jesus and Mary all the time. I pray the rosary and many other prayers. I try to make a point of doing goods acts in the name of Jesus whether great or small. This video made me feel as though no matter what I do I will be damned. Jesus be with you and your family.

Ace…

MHFM: You say that it’s as if one false move will send you to Hell. A mortal sin is not a false move; it’s a willful commission of an act that’s gravely offensive to God. You clearly have a desire to justify mortally sinful activity, and your problem is that you won’t exercise your will and resist sin. You claim that you pray; yet you persist in grave sins. There are two reasons for this: 1) you don’t pray with true faith and sincerity; and 2) you don’t have the first degree of humility: a fear of God that compels one to avoid mortal sin. Hence, your problem is pride. You think God’s law is a joke – not serious enough to warrant a change in your lifestyle – and you are mistaken.

St. Benedict (c. 520): “The first degree of humility, then, is that a man always have the fear of God before his eyes, shunning all forgetfulness and that he be ever mindful of all that God hath commanded, that he always considereth in his mind how those who despise God will burn in hell for their sins, and that life everlasting is prepared for those who fear God.”

Islam

Subject: Islam

Dear Brothers,

I was just looking at your recent article you linked to about Islamic persecution of "Christians" and the one about the Imam talking about Muslim men allowed to have up to 4 wives and as many concubines as they want. I had studied Islam a lot and hear about all these stories going on. Sadly, this is what that evil religion actually teaches. It actually teaches violence against non-Muslims. The true popes were right to call it an "abominable sect". Yet, Benedict XVI has the audacity to say that this is a great religion. How can anyone doubt that Benedict XVI is an antipope? He praises one of the most evil false religions in the world. Granted, all false religions are evil. But none have expressed their evil quite so much as Islam. How can this be a religion of peace? Or how can it be a noble or good religion, as Benedict XVI thinks? This just proves, beyond a doubt, that Benedict XVI is definitely an antichrist and a total apostate antipope.

God bless,

Comment

Subject: Doug with the bad-willed cousins

Dear MHFM:

Doug with the bad-willed cousins mentioned this in his e-mail:

"I actually had not recommended to my cousins that they pray the Lord's Prayer or the Hail Mary every night, so I tried to do that today at school. He responded with hostility and annoyance."

A significant reason that atheists are so angry, hateful and spewing is that they are internally conflicted. Their mind is trying to rationalize that God does not exist in direct opposition to what they actually know in their heart (soul) that indeed He does.

If Doug's cousin "truly" believed that God did not exist then he would not have reacted with hostility or annoyance, but rather he should have been amused at the idea of praying and willingly consented, since he "knows for sure" that they are just a bunch of "meaningless" words. Doug should point out to his cousin that his refusal and resistance to recite a bunch of "meaningless" words indicates that in his heart (soul) he actually knows/fears that God actually does exist.

Hopefully, if Doug can prevail here by goading his cousin to put his money where his mouth is, by saying these prayers (just "meaningless words" after all), the Lord will open his eyes and mind to the truth. It probably won't be an instantaneous change but saying these prayers (even just once) will weigh heavy on his soul and mind and "torment" him. It may also be just enough to allow his guardian angel to start more actively prodding him to wake up.

Prove

Brothers,

… This will hopefully be my last email about my cousins, there's just one more thing I have to resolve before I stop spending my time on them for good.

I actually had not recommended to my cousins that they pray the Lord's Prayer or the Hail Mary every night, so I tried to do that today at school. He responded with hostility and annoyance. He then asked me to prove to him that he is not GOD. I asked him what he meant by this, and he said that I can’t disprove or prove to him that he is God, and therefore trying to prove God is trying to prove a negative. I tried to rebuttals with some common philosophical and theological arguments, but he then said my logic was "ridiculous." There was no point in bring up Catholic dogma or miracles like Our Lady of Guadalupe, I had already tried to use these. Now of course the only man who was God was Jesus Christ, but is there any way to prove to him that he is not God?

Sincerely in Our Lady,

Doug

MHFM: You could ask your cousin to tell you, off the top of his head, how much rainfall Brazil gets in a year, and how many deer there are in North Dakota. When he is unable to do so, explain to him that he just proved he is not God; for God is omniscient (all-knowing) and your cousin is not.

The existence of God can be proven; but after you say a few final words to your cousin, you shouldn’t spend more time with him. He is of extreme bad will.

Comment

Dear MHFM,

I wanted to say how truly there is a war on for everyone's soul these days, but especially true traditional Catholics, and I don't think the battle's ever been more constant or brutal. I totally agree… that pretty much the whole world is possessed and servants of satan. I actually think they're given missions each day…

your… helpful video on King Solomon and his fall from grace… some wisdom I gleaned from the Solomon video is how he was originally a very good man and one of the best that ever lived and was taken down by his addiction to lust. His kingdom which once was a perfect model and tribute to Our Lord's infinite reign became a total bastardization of its original purpose and became the center of the worship of man. Incredible how he was getting 666 talents of gold every day I think it was. It makes me compare to the counterfeit demonic bride that everyone thinks is the "Catholic" church today. The big difference is that Benny is like an anti-solomon from the bowels of Hell that was rotten to the core from the beginning and never had a period of goodness like Solomon. It’s amazing how everything in the OT mirrors and prophetically foreshadows this awful time. He's bathed in custom cologne, has thousand dollar shoes, He's a spiritual business man from Hell who was born for one mission and one mission only, to destroy as many souls in the last battle as possible…. I mean it just makes me sick how by now anyone can consider this negative mirror image to be the Immaculate Bride of Christ. Does anyone even care? The Vatican, once the wise governing body of Christ's one true church is nothing but an unbelievably giant money laundering and soul killing operation. We True Catholics should all spend a little time meditating on the horror of the level of wrath Our Lord must perpetually be having for these minions...

Problems

Dear MHFM,

What do you think of people diagnosed with the so called bi -polar disorder? Are they possessed?

MHFM: Those who have mental problems have spiritual problems. If they convert to the true faith and pray the full Rosary each day, their problems should be solved.

Atheist

Subject: Atheist friend

Dear Brothers,

I have an acquaintance who is currently an atheist, at least that's what he claims. But I've shown him your video on Creation and miracles, as well as the Summa Theologica of St. Thomas Aquinas and he said that his eyes are a lot more open than before and he liked your video. I even suggested that he pray the rosary, and from what he told me, he said he did pray it and it made him feel better. Now, he's still not converted yet. But it seems like he has an open heart to the truth. I'm emailing you to ask if you and all the members of your monastery can keep him in your prayers, for his conversion. His name is Anthony. Thank you. :-)

Italy

BBC News - Italian earthquake: Centuries of history destroyed My father's family Tomasi came from a tiny town called Minti outside Torino------so while this grieves me deeply I also see how the hand of GOD acts in every place on earth to show that HE is in control of all and since virtually every single person not only in Italy but throughout the entire earth has rejected, abandoned and betrayed HIM in these times....well, it is most certainly within HIS mighty capability to let something like this occur...human "pride" is crushed.

Ethiopian

MHFM: This is a somewhat interesting quote about Philip’s conversion of the Ethiopian eunuch, recorded in Acts 8:26-40.

“The stress in the eunuch story is on God leading Philip to the eunuch and providentially arranging for the eunuch to be reading a text of Isaiah conducive to evangelism about Jesus – Isaiah 53. The emphasis on the man being an Ethiopian makes it very likely that he was black. Indeed, Ethiopians in antiquity were proverbially thought to be the darkest people on earth. We should stress that there is no evidence from antiquity of widespread prejudice against a particular group of people simply because of their skin color, or a combination of their skin color and distinctive ethnic features (e.g., hair, facial features). On that score, Luke lived in a different world from ours.” (Ben Witherington, New Testament History, p. 193.)

Food

Subject: Organic Food Co-op

Dear MHFM,

Is it sinful to enter an "Orthodox" Catholic church, when a person goes there for an organic food pickup? Every week where I am at there is an organic food Co-op and they arrange for all the pickups to be received at an "Orthodox" parish

MHFM: No, it’s not. However, if you have not done so, we recommend that you give them a copy of the book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church.

Impression

Subject: Correct me if I'm wrong?

I was under the impression that: 1) The Fatima requirement was for Russia to be consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary IN UNION WITH (ALL) THE BISHOPS (don't think this was ever attempted).....I wonder if John XXIII was supposed to accomplish this and his Masonic doctrine of Man had taken precedence instead and he had VATII?...

Mrs. A

MHFM: Your question is addressed in detail in the article. That’s why people interested in this issue need to put out some effort and READ THE ARTICLE.

The Whole Truth about the Consecration and Conversion of Russia and the Impostor Sr. Lucy

We will quote a short paragraph from the article which answers your question; but to see all of the facts that support and fill out this position, one has to read the whole article.

But didn’t Our Lady promise that Russia would be consecrated in union with all the Bishops of the world? No! This is a key point. Our Lady requested that Russia be consecrated in union with all the Bishops of the world, but on July 13 she only promised that “In the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and it will be converted and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world.” Notice that Our Lady didn’t promise: “The Holy Father and all the Bishops will consecrate Russia to me…” Further, heaven revealed that the actual fulfillment of the consecration of Russia would not be fully in accord with heaven’s original wishes; for instance, it would be “late” (more on this in a bit).

After

Subject: death

Brother Michael and Brother Peter,

After the recent death of my non-Catholic grandmother I have had pondering thoughts. I am the only Catholic in my family and understand that I am not to attend any non-Catholic services including funerals. When it is my parents' time to leave this world what are the guidelines for what you can and cannot do in terms of preparing their funerals, etc.? Are you allowed to carry through with their requests for what they want said or done at the funeral? As a Catholic do you have to find someone else to try to do this work in place of yourself? I would really appreciate your input on this subject.

May God continue to bless you both,

Jodi P.

MHFM: It’s sad to have a family member die outside the faith. Unfortunately, it’s a reality that basically every Catholic must face. When pondering this sobering reality, the overriding consideration should be that each person ultimately chooses his or her own fate. Each person ultimately searches out and follows after what he or she really wants and really values. Thus, those who die outside the Church did so because they didn’t want God and they didn’t want the truth. They wanted to go their own way, and that’s what they did.

A Catholic should not fulfill any kind of funeral requests made by a non-Catholic family member. A Catholic must not be involved with a non-Catholic funeral. The only thing one may do with a deceased non-Catholic family member is have that person buried. However, it must not be a Catholic/religious burial.

Australia, Anglicans

Subject: Anglicans

Dear Brothers,

Another agreement is being made here in Australia between the Vatican II sect and the Anglican schismatics: "Bathurst will become the sixth diocese in Australia to formalise the relationship between its Anglican and Catholic churches when Bishops Richard Hurford and Bishop Michael McKenna sign a covenant of friendship next week, reports the Western Advocate." (http://www.cathnews.com.au/article.aspx?aeid=31363) They refuse to condemn the Protestant heretics, and so end up in communion with them. It is outrageous. What schismatics! It shows again that they have absolutely no faith in Catholic dogmas, such as the necessity of membership in the Catholic Church for salvation, or in the Papacy and Papal Infallibility.

Matthew 16:18- "And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

2 Thessalonians - "Therefore, brethren, stand fast; and hold the traditions which you have learned, whether by word, or by our epistle."

Comment

New Jersey Man Has $20k Stolen From Him by Tennessee Police - YouTube

When I listen to this man (whose job it is to uphold the law) justifying the practice of stealing money from people, I am reminded of one of the little episodes which is described in MHFM's book on Padre Pio.

It's where Satan goes into Padre Pio's confessional disguised as a man, confesses every disgusting sin imaginable, and then justifies those sins. And the ability and skill of the devil in justifying these sins was enough to take even a man like Padre Pio aback. Makes one wonder if the devil wasn't giving Padre Pio a sneak preview of things to come. Once upon a time, evil things had to be hidden, but no more. Now, everything evil is openly called good. It's like the world is possessed.

Also wanted to add that Bill Mulligan brought out an interesting point about efforts being made by many in Russia to oppose abortion. I doubt you will find much about that in the Gruner or SSPX propaganda on Fatima.

Dear MHFM,

Isn't it somewhat ironic that the twelve apostles of Jesus Christ were jewish and converted to Christendom, and millions of willing jews throughout salvation history converted, as well as other races converting throughout the world, and the second vatican council 1962-65 condemns Catholics from evangelizing jews to convert, or any other religion? Calling Catholics who do so, anti-semitic and proselytizers in the negative. That's nearly two millenia fighting for Catholicism in its true form. What's wrong with this VII production?

Russia

Subject: Russian Facts

In response to the writer (Paul) who seemed to be questioning your well documented position that the Fatima promises concerning Russia have been fulfilled (Russia has undergone a kind of "conversion"), a couple of facts: 1) Paul points to the income tax as a Russian "error". The income tax system in the US was established under Woodrow Wilson in 1913, four years before Fatima and the Russian Revolution. So this point seems to be just wrong factually, as well as of questionable relevance. 2) While Russia (after the communist takeover) was the first modern country legalize abortion (1920), modern day Russia has passed many anti-abortion laws in the last couple of years and the Russian President's wife is actually a pro-life activist. Seems like a sort of "conversion" to me...

In the last couple of decades (since the fall of the Eastern Block) it seems hard to argue that the US isn't the nation most responsible for spreading error throughout the world on behalf of zionism and its proxies.

Dear Brother Peter Dimond,

I am most impressed with your talk on defending the efficacy of the Papacy as supported in Scriptures. This is a very powerful and convincing presentation that must be made accessible in all media formats, including print and video. I would be most appreciative if you made the transcript available as a link or included in some book that is for sale or provided among what donations may help cost-defray.

Consecration, B-16

Subject: Consecration of Russia

About the consecration of Russia:

Let me first say that I wish to ask this question for clarification. When Our lady of Fatima said, "“Russia will spread its errors throughout the world." We can still see Russia spreading its errors such as abortion and income tax. Two ideas that originated in Russia and unfortunately are still being spread today. Can it be that when Pius XII consecrated the russian people, he failed to specifically consecrate Russia as a nation rather than its people. Also, I do not know if he had all of the other bishops consecrate Russia with him? Benedict is not the Pope, I can clearly understand this, but unfortunately many people fail to recognize or even begin to question this. Would it be possible the Blessed Virgin manifest herself to him. Turns his heart good, say Alphonse Ratisbonne style, and then proceeds to consecrate Russia properly. In a comparison to the likes of Darth Vader, who was truly evil (V2) but then ultimately destroys the "Empire" and Mary's Immaculate heart triumphs.

If anything at all please respond about the Pius XII consecration.

Sincerely,

Paul

MHFM: First, the consecration of Russia matter – and the precise question you ask – is addressed in detail in this article: The Whole Truth about the Consecration and Conversion of Russia and the Impostor Sr. Lucy

By the way, with each day that goes by, the position we expressed on this issue years ago is proving itself true. Does it look like a consecration of Russia is in our future? No, that’s because it was accomplished in the past. (Our article was also the first and only explanation of how the consecration of Russia was performed before Vatican II, and how all the relevant information is consistent with that conclusion).

Second, you ask about Antipope Benedict XVI converting. We’re always puzzled when people focus on the possible conversion of the most wicked men in the world. You are talking about one of the most evil men in all of history, who was placed in the current position because he’s a reprobate and he’s fulfilling a precise role for Satan at the end of time.

People should not be focusing on whether there is any ounce of goodness in devilish men who are trying to smash Our Lord’s Church to pieces. They are not only trying to destroy the Church; they are doing it in the most insidious way: under the guise of protecting and leading her. Antipope Benedict XVI’s conversion is FAR LESS LIKELY than Planned Parenthood’s entire company shutting down tomorrow and going exclusively into pro-life causes. People should be focused combatting, rejecting and exposing these antichrists for what they are: men who are wicked to the core.

Pope Gregory XVI (1840): “This is surely the time when the Christian battle line should smash the devil as he rages all over the world…” (Probe Nostis #15)

Comment

In your Judas quote which is inspiring towards God's truth, I'm sure Luther, Montini, Wojtyla, and Ratzinger had/have identical expressions of deception. Those expressions never change, much like the saying, "Birds of a feather, flock together." Antichrists to the core!

Judas

MHFM: Mark 14:44- “And he that betrayed him, had given them a sign, saying: Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; lay hold on him, and lead him away carefully.”

This is a somewhat interesting quote about the incomprehensible insincerity and phoniness exhibited by Judas when betraying the Lord of all creation.

“A kiss was a normal form of greeting between disciple and teacher, a token of real friendship. Judas says, ‘The one I kiss should be grabbed and led away securely.’ The intensive verb used in v. 45 [Mark 14], kataphileo, means ‘to kiss with every show of affection,’ thus making the betrayal even worse. It is striking that after the betrayal by the kiss, Judas completely disappears into the night, never to appear again in Mark’s narrative.” (Ben Witherington, New Testament History, p. 167.)

We mention this aspect of the betrayal in the second half of this video: The Agony of Jesus in the Garden [video].

Discussion

Subject: “Imposter” Sr. Lucia

Thanks for the very interesting discussion on Sr. Lucy. It's not so hard to believe that Sr. Lucy lived to be 98 years old. I know several people that have done so, but more importantly it may be that she was really told that she would live to see the triumph of the Immaculate Heart, or the chastisement that would follow if The Blessed Virgins commands were not heeded. To say she would stay "a short time longer", could imply that it was possible for the commands to be met in a timely manner (they were not) so Sr. Lucy stayed, but under house arrest….

Karl

MHFM: The fact that few people live that long is not the reason one must conclude there was an impostor. The evidence is overwhelming in a variety of areas: 1) the changes in appearance; 2) her blatant contradictions to the real Sr. Lucia and the message of Fatima; 3) her blatant heresies; 4) how a traditional view of Fatima, the true Third Secret and Fatima’s fulfillment cannot be maintained without rejecting the post-Vatican II “Lucia” (for she clearly and without any doubt confirmed the phony Third Secret and the Vatican’s interpretation of it); 5) the clear need to silence and in fact eliminate the real Sr. Lucia before 1960 and after the Fuentes interview; and more. Only a dishonest person would reject all of the proof and still believe that the post-Vatican II “Sr. Lucia” was the real one. The point about Our Lady saying to the girl Lucia, “you will remain a little longer,” is just one more small piece of evidence that fits well with the true and proper conclusion: there is no way the post-Vatican II “Lucia” was the real Sr. Lucia.

Dear Brothers,

Manny Pacquiao's comments apologising to gays about offending them because he condemned homosexual marriage are sure to spell doom for his boxing career. It won't be surprising to read headlines about him losing some boxing matches soon.

Romans 1: 25-27 - "Who changed the truth of God into a lie; and worshipped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God delivered them up to shameful affections. For their women have changed the natural use into that use which is against nature. And, in like manner, the men also, leaving the natural use of the women, have burned in their lusts one towards another, men with men working that which is filthy, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was due to their error."

Impostor Sr. Lucia

Subject: The Impostor Sr. Lucia

Dear MHFM:

Around the 1:49 mark of your video "The Third Secret of Fatima, the Impostor Sr. Lucia, and the End of the World " (as found on YouTube), you make the strong case for the statistical improbability against Sister Lucia (born 1907) living to the age of 98 years old (dying in 2005). I refer your attention to EWTN's website about Fatima, specifically this link:

http://www.ewtn.com/fatima/apparitions/June.htm

At the June 13, 1917 apparition, the following conversation takes place between Our Lady and Lucia:

Lucia: "Will you take us to heaven?"

Our Lady: "Yes, I shall take Jacinta and Francisco soon, but you will remain a little longer, since Jesus wishes you to make me known and loved on earth. He wishes also for you to establish devotion in the world to my Immaculate Heart."

I find Our Lady's choice of words here extremely interesting. It would seem unimaginable that Our Lady meant by the phrase "a little longer" as a period of 88 years (1917-2007). Even by today's standards, 88 years is considered a very long life.

… I would say that this very well might be Our Lady's way of indicating that Lucia would definitely not live a full life (e.g. 70 years), and certainly not an extraordinary long life (i.e. 98 years). If so, then it would also seem that this was mentioned as a prophecy/warning against the impostor Sister Lucia and against all those who vouch for her. Furthermore, the fact that the impostor Sister Lucia was allowed to live to the year 2005, may have been an act of Divine intervention to make it clear that her apparent longevity was completely irreconcilable with Our Lady's words to Lucia that she would "remain (living) a little longer."

"To teach in order to lead others to faith is the task of every preacher and of each believer." —Thomas Aquinas

You have done the work, your material is interesting, and true. Every single person is capable of spreading it. The debates have been on your side, the quotes, teachings, and actions are all on your side. People need only legs, fingers, or a mouth to spread the truth. Though holiness is the goal (be ye holy), it is also a process, a process that involves the spreading of the faith. No matter who you are, or where you stand spiritually; at this very moment, you are capable of spreading the faith. You are capable of great things, and though not yet holy, you are capable of beginning the process.

Pray for me.

Creation

Dear Brothers,

Thank you for high-lighting the truth about the Genesis creation account. It is extremely important to believe in the miraculous creation of the universe by the Holy Trinity, and that He alone is the Creator of all things visible and invisible. There are many graces that are lost simply because people refuse to believe that everything was created in seven (or six, more accurately) days. Antipope Benedict XVI probably thinks it is merely symbolic, as would countless other false traditionalists and heretics. It is especially relevant today since modernist heretics abound, and modernism is founded on the heresy of evolution…

God Bless,

Outrage

Subject: Externals and Slogans

Dear Brothers:

As Kevin points out, anyone should be able to recognize that there is something apocalyptically wrong with the Vatican II church (because there is simply too much evidence). In fact, any person claiming to be Catholic (or even Protestant) if he were of good will, would be willing to examine the claims of sedevacantism, especially when he is reminded that there have been anti-popes before in history. The Vatican II sect is silent on the promotion of gay marriage, just as it is silent on all the public pro-abortion politicians claiming to be Catholic. ( In fact, it often praises them.) If the anti-popes can tolerate Pelosi, why wouldn't they tolerate Obama? And it doesn't take a theologian to question what "conservative" and "traditional" rags like The Wanderer have been reporting for decades. One example: the story about Fran Ferder and her male associate (a nun & priest combo) traveling throughout the dioceses promoting homosexuality among religious. According to the Wanderer, did the Vatican investigate them? Sure, and it only took the Vatican eight years to conduct their study and tell them to stop -- but allowed the program to continue anyway. And the people writing for, selling, and reading these rags don't see a problem in this?

Where is the outrage? Why do these supposed Catholics feel no compelling need to try to get to the bottom of this -- or be determined to die trying? Most people have no faith at all and couldn't care less, and the punishment seems to be that over time their blindness gets worse and worse. And as for those who might be inclined to stop and wonder what is going on and why, well, Satan has people like Corapi, Salza, Fellay and all the other Anti-Missionaries to assure them that all is well and that they can all go back to sleep… these double-talkers, as Vladimir and MHFM have pointed out, will just keep those mind-deadening slogans going -- because false Christianity is all about externals and slogans.. For the individual as well as for the nation, it's either Christ and His true Catholic Church or it's Satan --and mankind has opted for Satan.

It is nearly official. Some people, do not support you, not because you they do not think that you follow The Truth, but simply because you are not "nice." Never mind the years of reading documents and creating presentations to expose the antipopes... never mind the fact that your material is their reason for getting away from the invalid New Mass, and rejecting the complete antichrists in Rome... thanks for all of this, but you are not "nice." What a joke. Let me tell you about "nice" people (not that you need me too). Nanci Pelosi is "nice," Obama is "nice," I am sure that the politicians in China and Europe are also very "nice." We then have a dividing line, as in, all of these MASS MURDERERS of the innocent unborn are "nice people." Niceness has become the ultimate, Cardinal, and ONLY "virtue" necessary in today's antichrist world. "Niceness" is one reason for this apostasy in the first place, as in, that is the only "virtue" on display in the Vatican II sect.

Except that, "NICENESS IS NOT A VIRTUE!" And "nice" is also not synonymous with love. I say "thank you" and "your welcome" and I give a little fake laugh, and a little smile, because these things bring about the results that I want. People act positively towards me if I am nice. This, however, is NOT LOVE, this is clever…

Recently

Dear Brothers,

I was recently debating a woman on sola scriptura. I showed her all of the facts on how the Canon of Scripture was given to us by the Catholic Church, why the bible proves the Church's teachings on Our Lady, the Eucharist, confession to a priest, etc...but she still believes "Romanism" is a "false gospel." It just goes to show what bad will these Protestants show.

Sincerely in Our Lady,

Doug

MHFM: Yes, you really see it in encounters with them.

State

Subject: Revolt

Dear Brothers,

The state of the present world situation as discussed by Mark V and the other responder will never be a "Democracy of truth" as we know it. We're living in a time as never seen in history where the great revolt has occurred and the "man of sin" sits in the house of both the secular and the visible counter-church. There is no visible good in the world that is standing up for the truth (except MHFM) as we watch this game between the V-II, the SSPX and other false Christians battle it out in what would appear to be a boxing match between rivaling gang members.

This great deception and web of lies is becoming so obvious as seen by the current events in the world. Lost souls are buying into this garbage of the Vatican II, and these phony politicians because it all fits "so nicely" in this evil world as if they were trying on custom tailored clothing. Its as if the insane asylums have closed their doors and are not allowing anymore crazies in, as seen with the e-exchanges from Dr.. (Not) and (Deceived and bad willed).

2 Thessalonians 2:3-4; Let no man deceive you by any means, for unless there come a revolt first, and the man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, Who opposeth, and is lifted up above all that is called God, or that is worshipped, so that he sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself as if he were God.

God Bless Your Works,

Ring of Fire

Solar Eclipse 2012: 'Ring Of Fire' Set To Appear May 20

Dear Brothers:

It has been said that the story of Creation and the real history of the world is also taught through the phenomena of nature. I don't doubt that that's true, even if modern man has become too carnal to see it.

What a story Heaven told to the Aztecs via the garments which Our Lady wore in her miraculous image of Guadalupe!

Can't help but wonder: Does the phenomenon of the "ring of fire" in the eclipse of the sun reflect the Faithful Remnant in these endtimes when the true Catholic Church, which brings the Son's light to the world, is in eclipse? And is it the ring of fire which all of us (who wish to be a part of that Remnant) must be in the darkness of this Great Apostasy? God Bless Most Holy Family Monastery for showing us the way.

Today

Today 2 LatterDay/Mormon young men came to my door. I told them that I was a Traditional Catholic. One man said 'how is that working for you?' So I told him That Christ founded my church and all Protestants 'protested' against the Catholic church He founded. I tried to give them your book, "The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church" and he said he didn't want it. (That happened before with the Mormons, they will never accept other literature) I said that his 'church?' was founded by a man- he said Smith was a prophet. I told him he was a Freemason. I asked him if he knew about Freemasons and he said no. So I told him to look it up because they worship the devil. I think that kind of scared him, I hope, because then they left in a hurry. It is so sad they are so blinded by the devil. God bless you in your wonderful work!

MHFM: One should also tell them that they cannot be saved as Mormons, but only as Catholics.

Silence

Subject: Silence of Vatican on Obama Gay Marriage Announcement

Just wanted to pass this along. I was reading news story on Obama recent Gay "marriage" announcement and it stated Vatican is silent on issue.

It suddenly occurred to me that this all by itself - absent of everything else - is a simple yet absolute condemnation of the Vatican II sect. The “President” of the United States – “leader” of free world – makes a public announcement such as this and the vatican is silent?

What a scandal. A true Pontiff would be all over this…

Kevin

MHFM: That’s a good point.

Wrote

Dear Brothers in Christ,

The reader who wrote: "I can tell you it is not the will of the Father to be judging the Pope" is an obvious liar, and very probably an adherent of the V2 sect. While the statement in itself is accurate, it is as deceiving as any other statement coming from the Devil's mouth. First, how does he/she know that it is not up to the faithful to judge the Pope? Well, it is a dogma. It is one of the many dogmas of The Catholic Church rejected by the "Pope" he/she is referring to. Second, the apostate reader obviously doesn't like to quote Christ's words about false Christs, who will be appearing at the end times and will deceive many. How the faithful is supposed to judge who is a false Christ if he/she is not supposed to judge who is false Pope? The apostate reader obviously claims that it doesn't matter what the "Pope" teaches, and this claim is just the consequence of the apostates' conviction that it doesn't matter what Jesus Christ has taught. They, the abominable V2 sect adherents, just have their "Pope" and nothing else matters to them.

Third, the abominable V2 sectarians have completely taken over the communistic method of "managing the masses". The Devil's servant Lenin had supposedly said: "We will win masses by slogans". And they, the bolsheviks, have won the masses and killed millions in gulags and all other places in the world. Likewise, the V2 sectarians have picked up some slogans, such as "do not judge", "God is love", "Pope is not to be judged", and that's all they want to know, that is, they want to think they know what all of these slogans mean. In their gibberish "faith" there is no place for the dogmas of The Catholic Church and the true obedience to God and to the true popes. They have their "evolving dogmas", just like the bolshevik murderer Stalin, who has rejected the dialectic dogma of "negation of the negation" and replaced it with some other "dialectic law". That's because it had crossed his criminal mind that someone could think that he, Stalin, who himself is a negation, could also be negated. The abominable V2 sect, in devilish communion with all other false religions of the world, is a negation of the true faith.

Our Most blessed Mother Mary and St. Joseph, pray for all true Catholics in the world.

Vladimir from Zagreb, Croatia

MHFM: Yes, and the meaning of the principle, “No one can judge the First See or the Pope,” is that a pope (who is the supreme judge in the Church) cannot be subjected to a canonical trial. It also means that his authoritative acts (official decrees) cannot be judged. It does not mean that a true pope cannot be criticized, in regard things he does in a non-magisterial capacity; and of course the Vatican II impostors aren’t true popes at all but non-Catholic heretics and antipopes.

On this matter it’s very interesting to reconsider how this principle, “No one can judge the First See,” is ironically crucial to proving the position that heretical “popes” lose their offices (ipso facto) without any declaration or judgment by a man. Some defenders of the Vatican II antipopes, who reluctantly acknowledge a few problems with the antipopes’ volumes of heretical teaching (it’s amazing, isn’t it?), assert that a trial or formal decree would have to precede the rejection of a heretical “pope”; for the average person cannot “judge,” they say. This is not only completely wrong; but ironically, in wrongly asserting that the principle “No one can judge the pope” requires that a trial or decree (from a council or bishops or cardinals) precede the rejection of a heretical “pope,” they are violating the very principle they cite. They are calling for a judgment of “the pope” while simultaneously arguing that he cannot be judged.

In the process they are demonstrating the truth that heretical “popes” MUST lose their offices automatically, without any declaration, trial or formal judgment (which is Catholic teaching); for no one could render the judgment or subject the pope to a trial. This was covered in detail in our article, John Salza Has No Idea What He's Talking About [article]. It shows how one heretic, in advancing false arguments in a futile attempt to defend the antipope, fell into a complete and embarrassing denial of the principle: “No one can judge the First See.” The article shows that defenders of Antipope Benedict XVI are not only wrong, but they have no idea what they are talking about. Each principle they cite points us directly back to the falsity of their position. They throw out arguments and quotes that sound good and successfully deceive the typical reader, but serve to destroy their own conclusions when carefully scrutinized. Here’s one important section of the article. We cite this because it shows how defenders of the antipope misuse Catholic principles, and how the proper understanding of every Catholic principle is ALWAYS consistent with the true position: that a heretic such as Benedict XVI CANNOT be considered a true pope, and must be considered an antipope.

--

… we have three layers of contradictions laid by Salza’s erroneous writing on the sedevacantist issue: 1) contradictions within the first article; 2) contradictions within the second article; and 3) contradictions between what he said in the first article and what he said in the second article. Let’s consider #3 right now: contradictions between his first article and his second article.

SALZA’S FIRST ARTICLE DECLARED THAT CATHOLICS NEED A DECLARATION TO CONSIDER ANY PROFESSING “CATHOLIC” OR CLERIC A HERETIC

HIS SECOND ARTICLE REJECTS THAT POSITION (AFTER I REFUTED IT), AND NOW HE APPLIES HIS FALSE PRINCIPLE ONLY TO A “POPE”!

In Salza’s first article, he argued that the key error of the sedevacantists is failing to recognize a distinction. He distinguished between 1) the fact that a heretic ceases to be a member of the Church and vacates his office without declaration; and 2) the fact that Catholics supposedly cannot know who is a heretic “until the Church tells us.” The left column reflects his first article, and the right column his second. Notice (in the left column) that he applied his false argument, that we need the Church’s judgment to consider someone a heretic, to all professing Catholics and to clerics in general, not only to a pope.

Then notice (in the right column) how he changes his position and even lies about having ever taught it.

FIRST ARTICLE SALZA SAYS YOU CANNOT CONSIDER ANY OTHER “CATHOLIC” A HERETIC UNTIL “THE CHURCH TELLS US” John Salza, First Article: “Sedevacantists correctly maintain that Divine Law expels a formal heretic from the Church without further declaration… However, the same Code of Canon Law also determines how we know a cleric has publicly defected from the Faith and lost his office as a result of the defection: The Church tells us. Thus, ecclesiastical law follows Our Lord’s directive: “tell it to the church; and if he refuses to listen even to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector” (Mt 18:17). While the person in Matthew 18 was publicly suspected of a transgression, Jesus tells us to treat him as excommunicated only after the Church judges the matter. “… St. Paul is not giving every Catholic the authority to make a formal and binding determination of another Catholic’s orthodoxy.”

SECOND ARTICLE SALZA NOW CLAIMS THAT HE NEVER SAID THAT John Salza, Second Article, p. 5: “Ability to Recognize a Formal Heretic: Catholics are able to recognize a formal heretic without a declaration from the Church. See canon 188.4 and Cum Ex Apostolatus. While Dimond and I agree with this statement, Dimond (as you will see) repeatedly claims that I don’t believe Catholics can recognize a formal heretic, and that is simply not true (I have never held such an error). This is a deliberate or negligent mischaracterization of my position.”

In his first article (left column), he clearly teaches that a declaration from the Church is necessary to consider someone a heretic; and he argues that this principle applies to “a cleric” (not just a pope) and even to “another Catholic’s orthodoxy.” That means that he was applying his false principle to all who professed to be Catholics. He was arguing that you cannot consider any “Catholic” a heretic until “the Church tells us.” In my article (John Salza’s Arguments Against Sedevacantism Crushed) I completely refuted his false argument, and that’s why Salza abandoned it in his second. He now argues (right column) that you can recognize a professing “Catholic” as a heretic without a declaration from the Church, and he even dishonestly says he never taught otherwise.

Anyone can see that Salza’s statement is false and dishonest. He clearly taught that Catholics cannot recognize another “Catholic” as a heretic “until the Church tells us.” The fact that Salza is changing his position (again) and lying about it should make it clear to anyone that his position is false and indefensible.

PP. 5-6- SALZA’S NEW POSITION CAUSES HIM EVEN MORE HERETICAL PROBLEMS

Salza’s new position is that while Catholics can recognize some people as formal heretics without the Church’s declaration, in the case of a pope a declaration is always required. This opens up a whole new can of worms for his position because the canons he consistently cites and misuses don’t specify that they apply exclusively to a pope. Even more importantly, in making his false argument that a claimant to the papal office must be declared a heretic before anyone could consider him one, Salza violates the dogmatic principle that a pope and the First See cannot be judged. As I will show, there are literally dozens of errors, lies and contradictions in Salza’s second article, but this error might be the most important.

THE PRINCIPLE THAT A POPE AND THE FIRST SEE CANNOT BE JUDGED BURIES SALZA’S ARTICLE AND HIS WHOLE NEW LINE OF ARGUMENTATION

The principle that a pope and the First See cannot be judged is bound up with Catholic teaching on the primacy. It was articulated from the earliest days of the Church. Essentially, it means that since the pope is the leader of the Church with universal primacy and jurisdiction, no cleric, bishop or Catholic can depose the pope or SUBJECT THE POPE TO A CANONICAL TRIAL. While a pope can summon a lower cleric (such as a bishop, cardinal or priest) to a trial for heresy, no one can do the same to a pope; for there is no authority on Earth higher than a reigning pope.

Pope St. Nicholas, epistle (8), Proposueramus quidem, 865: “… Neither by Augustus, nor by all the clergy, nor by religious, not by the people will the judge be judged… ‘The first seat will not be judged by anyone.’” (Denz. 330)

Pope St. Leo IX, In terra pax hominibus, Sept. 2, 1053, Chap. 11: “By passing judgment on the great See, concerning which it is not permitted any man to pass judgment, you have received anathema from all the Fathers of the venerable Councils…” (Denz. 352)

Pope St. Leo IX, In terra pax hominibus, Sept. 2, 1053, Chap. 32: “… As the hinge while remaining immoveable opens and closes the door, so Peter and his successors have free judgment over all the Church, since no one should remove their status because ‘the highest See is judged by no one.’” (Denz. 353)

Canon 1556, 1917 Code of Canon Law, On trials in general: “The First See is judged by no one.”

Nevertheless, throughout his second article, John Salza argues that the pope not only can be judged to be a heretic by an official declaration, but that such a declaration (and a preceding trial) are necessary for a Catholic to consider the pope a heretic!

John Salza, Second Article, p. 7: “Second, even if the pope were subject to canon 2200 and thus his formal heresy were presumed (which is not true), the pope would still be entitled to rebut the presumption in a canonical trial…”

John Salza, Second Article, p. 6: “Even if there were evidence of malice or disregarded warnings, the pope would be entitled to rebut such evidence as a matter of due process. That is why Dimond fixates on a Catholic’s ability to recognize heresy without the intervention of the Church (because he wants to personally judge the heresy) and also why he ignores or dismisses the canon law that requires declaratory sentences for heresy (again, because he wants to personally judge the heresy).”

He teaches that there must be a process and examination of the pope. He even says that the pope would be entitled to rebut such evidence in a trial. All of this reveals his flawed theology, and his heretical understanding of the issue. The pope cannot be subjected to a trial or examination, nor can he be deposed by a declaration from any cleric, bishop, body of bishops or even a council. In fact, the notion that a council could judge or depose a pope is the heresy of Conciliarism; yet many non-sedevacantists argue that a council must handle the matter. (A non-sedevacantist on YouTube, whose user name begins with “September,” made a similar false argument. Like Salza, he also refused our debate challenge.) That’s why the loss of papal office, and the ability of Catholics to recognize it, must happen WITHOUT ANY DECLARATION; for no one can judge the pope. Any Catholic, on the other hand, can recognize that a manifest heretic is not a pope.

Here are some more quotes in which Salza promotes his primary heresy on this matter: that a pope can be judged, subjected to a trial, and deposed.

SALZA’S FUNDAMENTAL HERESY EXPOSED – JUDGING AND DEPOSING A POPE

The sheer number of times that Salza promotes his fundamental heresy is alarming. His entire argument revolves around this heretical position, which he vomits forth page after page. When reading his repeated utterances of heresy on this matter, which serve to demonstrate that his position is false and his understanding of canon law fatally flawed, keep the pure Catholic truth on this matter firmly in mind: since no authority on Earth or in the Church could officially judge a reigning pope or subject him to a canonical trial or depose him, a claimant to the Papacy who demonstrates manifest heresy must be considered to have lost the office WITHOUT ANY DECLARATION, JUDGMENT OR TRIAL (BY VIRTUE OF THE DIVINE SENTENCE OF HERESY). For that reason, one is not judging a pope when one recognizes that Benedict XVI (an obvious heretic) isn’t a Catholic. Rather, one is simply acknowledging that a manifest heretic, who has publicly defected from the faith, is outside the Church and, as a result, devoid of any Catholic authority.

SALZA CALLING FOR TRIALS, DECREES AND JUDGMENTS AGAINST A POPE John Salza, Second Article, p. 7: “Second, even if the pope were subject to canon 2200 and thus his formal heresy were presumed (which is not true), the pope would still be entitled to rebut the presumption in a canonical trial…” John Salza, Second Article, p. 10: “… in Peter Dimond’s world, the pope is presumed guilty until proven innocent (actually, Dimond would not even give the pope a chance to prove himself innocent in a canonical trial!” John, that’s because a pope cannot be subjected to a canonical trial. John Salza, Second Article, p. 10: “Further, the pope, above all men, would have the right to rebut any evidence that he is intentionally departing from the Catholic Faith as a matter of justice and due process. Again, that goes without saying.” John Salza, Second Article, p. 10: “Even if the popes were not ignorant of Church teaching (a fact that would have to be established in a canonical trial)…” John Salza, Second Article, p. 15: “The Dimond brothers can compile all the heterodox quotes of the conciliar popes that they wish and “adjudicate” them on their website as if they are the Magisterium… When it is a question of evidence which can deprive one of an ecclesiastical office, an ecclesiastical authority must resolve the question.” Here Salza clearly articulates the condemned heresy that an “ecclesiastical authority” can deprive (at least de facto) a pope of office. John Salza, Second Article, p. 18: “A condemnatory sentence for heresy is declared only after a canonical trial, and canon 2223.4 requires a condemnatory sentence to be declared if it is for the common good of the Church (in the case of a claimant to the papacy whose heresy has not yet been proven to be morally imputable).” John Salza, Second Article, p. 20: “Hence, the only way Dimond can strip the pope of his office is through the canonical procedures that he, quite wrongly, says do not apply.” No one can strip the pope of his office. This is staggeringly false theology. John Salza, Second Article, p. 6: “Even if there were evidence of malice or disregarded warnings, the pope would be entitled to rebut such evidence as a matter of due process. That is why Dimond fixates on a Catholic’s ability to recognize heresy without the intervention of the Church (because he wants to personally judge the heresy) and also why he ignores or dismisses the canon law that requires declaratory sentences for heresy (again, because he wants to personally judge the heresy).”

THE CHURCH CONDEMNING TRIALS, DECREES AND JUDGMENTS AGAINST A POPE Pope St. Nicholas, epistle (8), Proposueramus quidem, 865: “… Neither by Augustus, nor by all the clergy, nor by religious, not by the people will the judge be judged… ‘The first seat will not be judged by anyone.’” Canon 1556, 1917 Code of Canon Law, On trials in general: “The First See is judged by no one.” Pope St. Leo IX, In terra pax hominibus, Sept. 2, 1053, Chap. 11: “By passing judgment on the great See, concerning which it is not permitted any man to pass judgment, you have received anathema from all the Fathers of the venerable Councils…” Pope St. Leo IX, In terra pax hominibus, Sept. 2, 1053, Chap. 32: “… As the hinge while remaining immoveable opens and closes the door, so Peter and his successors have free judgment over all the Church, since no one should remove their status because ‘the highest See is judged by no one.’” Pope St. Nicholas, epistle (8), Proposueramus quidem, 865: “… Neither by Augustus, nor by all the clergy, nor by religious, not by the people will the judge be judged… ‘The first seat will not be judged by anyone.’” Canon 1556, 1917 Code of Canon Law, On trials in general: “The First See is judged by no one.” Pope St. Leo IX, In terra pax hominibus, Sept. 2, 1053, Chap. 11: “By passing judgment on the great See, concerning which it is not permitted any man to pass judgment, you have received anathema from all the Fathers of the venerable Councils…” Pope St. Leo IX, In terra pax hominibus, Sept. 2, 1053, Chap. 32: “… As the hinge while remaining immoveable opens and closes the door, so Peter and his successors have free judgment over all the Church, since no one should remove their status because ‘the highest See is judged by no one.’” Pope St. Nicholas, epistle (8), Proposueramus quidem, 865: “… Neither by Augustus, nor by all the clergy, nor by religious, not by the people will the judge be judged… ‘The first seat will not be judged by anyone.’”

We’ve uncovered the fatal flaw of Salza’s second article. His false theology leads him to the dead end that a declaration, preceded by a canonical trial, would have to be rendered against the pope. He argues that only after such a trial and declaration can Catholics remove their submission to him.

SALZA’S HERETICAL WORLD, IN WHICH A POPE COULD BE SUBJECTED TO A TRIAL

In Salza’s heretical world, we could have the following ridiculous scenario. Evidence of heresy is produced against a claimant to the papal office in Rome. The cardinals, some of the bishops or a council call for a trial against the pope. In response, the pope (to use Salza’s words) tries “to rebut the presumption in a canonical trial.”

John Salza, Second Article, p. 7: “Second, even if the pope were subject to canon 2200 and thus his formal heresy were presumed (which is not true), the pope would still be entitled to rebut the presumption in a canonical trial…”

During the trial, the pope vigorously maintains his innocence, and he even issues a decree on the matter. Nevertheless, the finding of the trial is that the pope is guilty. Catholics are therefore forced to remove their obedience from the pope, as a result of this declaration against him. Hence, the declaration serves as a deposition. Moreover, they are forced to reject the pope’s own authoritative decree which proclaimed his innocence. Hence, they pass judgment on the judgment of the Apostolic See! Of course, all of this is heretical and clearly contradicts Vatican I.

Vatican I, Dogmatic Constitution on the Church of Christ, Sess. 4, Chap. 3: “And since the Roman Pontiff is at the head of the universal Church by the divine right of apostolic primacy, We teach and declare also that he is the supreme judge of the faithful [cf. n.1500 ], and that in all cases pertaining to ecclesiastical examination recourse can be had to his judgment [cf. n. 466 ]; moreover, that the judgment of the Apostolic See, whose authority is not surpassed, is to be disclaimed by no one, nor is anyone permitted to pass judgment on its judgment [cf. n.330 ff.]. Therefore, they stray from the straight path of truth who affirm that it is permitted to appeal from the judgments of the Roman Pontiffs to an ecumenical Council, as to an authority higher than the Roman Pontiff.”

Since he’s a proven liar, Salza will probably either change his position on this matter (now that we’ve refuted it) or flat out deny that he taught the heresy that a pope can be subjected to canonical trial (despite the proof above). Denying that he taught it won’t get him anywhere, however, for his heretical position (that a pope can and must be judged, subjected to a trial and even de facto deposed by a declaration) is the core of his argument. It’s mentioned throughout his heretical article. That having been established, let’s return to the beginning of his article and consider more of his errors, lies, and contradictions.

Comment

Subject: True Civilization

Dear MHFM,

In reply to mark v, I also wanted to say and supplement that a true democracy is only one that is Catholic, wherein the Church is married to the state in perfect harmony. Pope St. Pius X, Notre Apostolique, August 15, 1910: "..for there is no true civilization without a moral civilization, and no true moral civilization without the true Religion.." A true democracy defends the rights of the Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Rights of Holy mother the Church, and the rights of the people. Pope St. Pius X "There is only one human dignity and that is Catholic dignity." When intrinsic evils such as infanticide and sodomite so called unions are called and made lawful, and the family is getting wiped out systematically, it can be understood that we live in a barbarian form of what I would even hesitate to call normal society. It is barbarianism; this is the reign of darkness.

System

… the political system or situation is so horrible right now in this country. We are no longer a true democracy, we have become an oligarchy, that is where a few elite control and rule over us. They handpick who is going to rule over us. The American people have lost control over their own country. A true democracy is where the people decide who will rule over them. Thank you very much for your patience. From Mark v

Creation

I find your channel very interesting, and unique, Sir.

I am thankful to see that some Catholics still believe in the Creation account of Genesis, and are faithful to what Scripture teaches about early world history.

I am not a Catholic, but have run into many Catholics who dismiss Genesis as myth, and who sadly believe that the god of Islam made the heavens and the earth.....

Thank you for your unique channel, and videos, Sir.

In Christ ~ Grace

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. One of the biggest problems today is that most modern “Catholics” do not possess faith in the biblical creation account, and they are open to such fairy tales as evolution. This ruins supernatural belief in Christ and His dogmas. While it’s good that you accept the truth about the creation account, it’s necessary to become a Catholic. Only Catholicism is true Christianity, and there is no salvation outside of it. Please see our book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church.

Deceived and bad-willed

We will see who the one is who is deceived!! Sorry I don't plan on seeing you in the future. I'm reminded of the scripture that says not all those who say Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven but those who do the will of my father. I can tell you it is not the will of the Father to be judging the Pope. That will be the Lords Job. Your pride wants to judge him but it will be your downfall!

MHFM: You are so clueless as a result of bad will. The information is there for you to see that your antipope doesn’t believe in Jesus or the Gospel, not to mention the Council of Trent, Vatican I or the Papacy. Yet, you ignore and despise it all. You are a reprobate. We are not judging a pope, but an anti-Catholic apostate. You are not defending a pope, but an invalid non-Catholic heretic; but you don’t care about truth or facts.

Not

I know you have heard this time and time again. Your disobedient. You are NOT Catholic because of your disobedience. My question to you is, if sede's are "legit" catholics, why are you all so insidious? Tricking proper catholics at every venue? You know you all do this. Check yourselves and your shady ways.

Dr…

MHFM: No, you know nothing about obedience; you know nothing about the Papacy; you know nothing about the Magisterium. You only understand lies and savor the cult of man. True Catholic principles, rooted in the office of the Papacy, are meaningless to you.

Say

Mr. White is correct on Fellay. I have heard upper SSPX clergy speak and have heard them say; for B16, it is a doctrinal misunderstanding or confusion of the faith that he suffers from. What was sad is everyone listening seemed to accept it. Obviously, Ratzinger CANNOT not know what he is doing is heretical. Also, they, the SSPX clergy refuse to use the word heretical when speaking about Ratzinger. I hope… a split is coming and inside this group are clergy that wish to pursue the true Catholic Faith.

Subject: The Rosary Article

Dear MHFM, Apocalypse 12-17: "And the dragon was angry against the woman: and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ." Clearly we see who the antichrist was, and is. The boldness of JPII, antichrist, to detract from the power of the Mother of God, and the sheeple of satan follow along in step. The modern church has no sense of respect for the heavenly, no longer. Sad, much like the dry feeling Lot must have felt when he saw the salt figure of his wife on his journey to Segor.

Search

Good evening. My search for Catholic truth always starts with my Lord, but was greatly accelerated earlier this year by your dvds, books, and website. Shock, anger, and sadness at what happened to my beloved church while I wasn't paying attention. Actually I have noticed a lot of things but chose to ignore it, or maybe suppress it. Like ignoring the check engine light as we keep driving along. Being 67 years old I came of age before Vatican 11 so I should know better. I wasn't smart enough to be even a "material heretic". I just went along with the program. NO more!... I realized by your instruction that we are not to contribute or support this novus ordo sect in anyway…

Communism

Dear MHFM,

The communist menace shall be extinguished by Catholic invincibility, the bane of the communists. In a compendium of the work by Lavrentiy Pavlovich Beria, a communist Jew and the chief of the secret police under Stalin, the Catholic Church is called “that terrible monster the Roman Catholic Church still dominates mental healing throughout the Christian world and their well schooled priests are always at work to turn the public their way.” This communist manual also laid stress on foaming hatred against the Catholic Church through left wing pressure groups and propaganda to bring it into a state of odium before the masses. They also stressed ridding mental health institutions of the Priests, and admitted the efficacy of Priests healing the insane. The communists admitted that their control of mental health centers cannot and hasn’t helped people at all, but in fact turns out more insane people who were otherwise healthy going in. They admitted that they turned out massive death casualties in these institutions and that this should be kept a secret…

Martha Lyles: What the Fire Spared: On Mary and Motherhood

Dear Brothers:

I'm really glad you included this article which demonstrates that false signs and wonders come in all shapes and sizes. The woman writing the article starts out by saying: "The rosary is a perfect prayer and its mysteries are a cradle of comfort". Then she immediately adds: " What an enduring gift from John Paul II one decade ago: the Mysteries of Light that completed the story." Wow. Isn't it slick how this article pretends to be giving glory to Our Lady but is actually promoting the Antichrist. According to this woman, the Rosary as it was given to St. Dominic by Our Lady was incomplete, and Our Lady was obviously mistaken in calling the rosary her Angelic Psalter. In fact, everyone got it wrong, including all of the Catholic saints and popes who, over all these centuries, have promoted the Rosary with its three sets of mysteries.

The real point of this woman's article is that, in knowing the complete way that the Rosary should be prayed, JP2 was greater than Our Lady (or, at the very least greater than every other saint), as he was the one who brought the rosary to its perfection. (Little wonder why they are already referring to JP2 as "the Great"). This woman's article will no doubt be a BIG hit with the rest of the sickening Novus Ordo crowd who enjoy being dupes of Satan because they have no more love and esteem for Our Lady than they do for her Divine Son.

Letters

Dear Brothers,

Two letters between the SSPX hierarchy have been leaked, and I got a copy of them. They reveal that the SSPX supporters are being deliberately deceived. For example, in the letter from Bp. Fellay to the three other bishops, he wrote: "Well, the Pope has let us know that his concern to settle our affair for the good of the Church was at the very heart of his pontificate, and that he also knew that it would be easier both for him and for ourselves to leave things as they presently stand." Antipope Benedict XVI wants the SSPX to remain schismatics, obviously because he is a schismatics himself, e.g. praying with the Angilcans, "Orthodox," etc. The three bishops say that "a doctrinal agreement is impossible with current Rome," yet they still hold Rome to be the Catholic Church rather than heretics, schismatics, apostates and the Whore of Babylon: "Of course, on the two sides of current division between the Conciliar Church and the FSSPX many wish that Catholic unity be restored. Honor to those on both sides. But reality governs everything, and all these sincere desires must yield to the reality that since Vatican II the official authorities of the Church have deviated from the Catholic truth, and today they are shown to be quite determined to always remain faithful to the Conciliar doctrines and practices. The Roman discussions, the “doctrinal preamble” and Assisi III are clear examples of this." They say "reality governs everything," as if God were merely human consciousness. What blasphemy!!! They are all schismatics in the SSPX hierarchy because they imagine that the Church can be divided, which is impossible: Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum: "But when we consider what was actually done we find that Jesus Christ did not, in point of fact, institute a Church to embrace several communities similar in nature, but in themselves distinct, and lacking those bonds which render the Church unique and indivisible after that manner in which in the symbol of our faith we profess: "I believe in one Church." "The Church in respect of its unity belongs to the category of things indivisible by nature, though heretics try to divide it into many parts...We say, therefore, that the Catholic Church is unique in its essence, in its doctrine, in its origin, and in its excellence...Furthermore, the eminence of the Church arises from its unity, as the principle of its constitution - a unity surpassing all else, and having nothing like unto it or equal to it" (S. Clemens Alexandrinus, Stronmatum lib. viii., c. 17)." Fellay also says that the Superior General is the "principle of unity" in the SSPX, not the Papacy: "Our venerable founder [Lefebvre] gave to the Society bishops a task and precise duties. He made clear that the principle of unity in our Society is the Superior General." That contradicts Vatican I: Pope Pius IX, Vatican I: "In order, then, that the episcopal office should be one and undivided and that, by the union of the clergy, the whole multitude of believers should be held together in the unity of faith and communion, he set blessed Peter over the rest of the apostles and instituted in him the permanent principle of both unities and their visible foundation." Fellay also questions whether the three bishops even hold Benedict XVI to be "pope": "Reading your letter one seriously wonders if you still believe that the visible Church with its seat in Rome is truly the Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ, a Church horribly disfigured for sure from head to foot, but a Church which nevertheless still has for its head Our Lord Jesus Christ. One has the impression that you are so scandalised that you no longer accept that that could still be true. Is Benedict XVI still the legitimate pope for you? If he is, can Jesus Christ still speak through his mouth?" I guess for Bp. Fellay who has absolutely no faith in what Jesus Christ revealed, but who worships man, then heresy is not much of a big deal, as if burning in fire forever were merely a teaching used to control the masses. What an apostate and antichrist!!! Also, Fellay is utterly blind to the fact that the Devil speaks through Benedict XVI's mouth, obviously because he himself is a mouthpiece of Satan!!! Fellay then mocks the necessity to condemn heresy: "Depth: within the Society, we are in the process of making the Council's errors into super-heresies, as though it is becoming absolute evil, worse than anything, in the same way that Liberals have dogmatised this pastoral council. The evils are already dramatic enough so that one not need to exaggerate them any further." Bp. Fellay proves himself an utterly faithless coward, liar and heretic. He has absolutely no faith in the Papacy and Papal infallibility, for he calls nothing heresy, and nothing dogma. He resorts to the vain philosophy of "realism" rather than to divine revelation. Bp. Fellay is a mouthpiece of Satan and does not have the grace of the Catholic faith. The SSPX could be about to split! However, all their bishops are heretics, schismatics and apostates, mainly because they refuse to condemn anyone as heretics. They think heretics can be members of the Catholic Church, which is heresy, modernism and liberalism itself. It goes back to their acceptance of the heresies of "baptism of desire," "baptism of blood," and "invincible ignorance." Outside the Catholic Church and Trinitarian water baptism there is absolutely no salvation.

God Bless,

Think

Dear Brothers,

What are we to think of Maria Valtorta and her writings. It does have a supernatural feel to it, but having made it this far I am skeptical of much. Below I have included the information and where you can find about 1,000 pages of free samplings of her writings…. I found it amongst SSPX websites and affiliates. Thanks! And may the Almighty keep you standing strong and bearing witness to the True Church!

Erick Vega

MHFM: Her writings are false and should be avoided.

Happened

Dear Sirs:

Let me introduce myself, I am Charles Hawthorne, a 59 year old male that lives in Beaumont, Texas. I was not raised in the confines of a church but was allowed to seek God on any level that I saw fit. In order for me to profess that I believe in the ways of any certain church, and therefore trust them to correctly develop my mortal soul, I must be genuinely convinced that the teachings of that church does accurately reflect Gods true wishes. I have attended churches of many different denominations and yet have not found any that I would not feel hypocritical by saying that I believe in any particular churches ways.

Can you help me establish the truth to some important religious concerns? What happened to the fourth commandment, "Remember the Sabbath and keep it Holy" ? Was this written in stone by the finger of God and handed to Moses on the tablets of the Ten Commandments? Which day did he command us to remember? (It was the only day that He blessed after He created the Heavens and Earth and everything in them) Who changed the Holy Day of Worship from the seventh day of the week to the first day? Why was this done? Who were they trying to align with? Who said, "Had She not such great power, She would not have been able to change the Holy Day of Worship from the seventh day (Saturday) of the week to the first day (Sunday) of the week? Did Jesus say, "I came not to change , but rather to enforce" ? Who said , "Not one jot or tittle shall be changed for as long as the Heavens and Earth shall continue to exist?... Who believes that any man has the power to forgive you of sin, and once you are forgiven, "even God in Heaven above is powerless to reverse that forgiving"?

You must have access to vast amounts of religious knowledge, I only know what I have found on my own. Will you tell me the truth or just something to justify these actions? God knows the truth. I seek truth inspired directions. Can you, or will you help me find God's word?

I appreciate your help,

Charles Hawthorne

MHFM: The first article you should see is this: Is Saturday or Sunday the Holy Day according to the Bible? This article deals with your concerns on the Sabbath. It refutes the view of Seventh-Day Adventists and Seventh-Day Baptists who believe that the day specifically dedicated to God, rest and worship is Saturday not Sunday. Many of your other questions are addressed in our book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church, and in our section refuting Protestantism. We recommend that you obtain the book.

Confession is taught in the Bible. In expressing your concerns about Catholic teaching on forgiveness, you do not accurately describe the Church’s position. The Church does not teach that men are able to forgive sins independently of God. You imply that the Church’s priests and God have two independent apostolates of forgiveness, and that while one is sometimes activated the other is not. No, God gave power and authority to men to forgive sins on His behalf and in His name (John 20:23). Hence, if God does not deem a man worthy of forgiveness – for example, if a man has no intention of amending his ways when he confesses a grave sin – then the priest is also unable to forgive the sinner in confession.

That’s why St. Paul, who was made a priest and bishop in the Church, says that the ministers of the Church are ministers of God’s reconciliation (forgiveness).

2 Corinthians 5:18-20- “God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation… Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.”

If you prayed the Hail Mary and the Our Father, you would get the graces to see the truth of the Catholic faith.

Heard

MHFM: This is a somewhat interesting quote to contradict evil skeptics, who attempt to undermine the truth of the Gospel with myths and baseless comparisons to paganism.

“A commonly heard argument says that the story of Jesus’ birth is simply a variant of the myths of origins told about figures in the Greco-Roman world, such as the stories about Augustus. The truth, however, is that none of the pagan stories are about a virginal conception, a notion that lends itself to the accusation of the child being illegitimate. The pagan stories are usually about some kind of act of hieros gamos – a divine being descends to earth in the guise of a man, mating with a human woman. But this is not at all what Matthew or Luke suggests happened in the case of Mary, which is about miraculous conception without any form of intercourse and without the aid of any male figure, divine or otherwise.” (Ben Witherington, New Testament History, p. 68.)

Baptism

Dear Mhfm,

The part of Ireland I live in is very close to St Bridget's well. She baptised many people here and also cured people from various illnesses. I recently found out that unbaptized infants are actually buried underneath the grass at the well because the judge refused to put them in a church grave yard. I think this is a good example that Christians down through history always held you had to be water baptized to be a member of the Church.

As far as "baptism" of desire goes how could members of other religions possibly merit that if it did exist (which it doesn't) if infants can't. Nearly everyone who believes in bod/bob says it can apply to jews, muslims etc.

… a youtube user… messaged me something one time along the lines of "you’re from Ireland and I know catholics and protestants have a dispute in your country which is probably the reason you don't believe in baptism of desire since you want them to go to hell".

That was not his exact quote but trust me he said something to that effect. Now of course I don't want anyone going to hell but I firmly believe they will if they don't convert. But isn't that totally evil he basically said protestants who hate catholics could get a baptism of desire. Baptism of desire destroys everything to do with faith.

Looking forward to your new video. I love listening to your old radio programs. Would you consider possibly doing one on youtube sometime? I know you’re extremely busy however.

God Bless

Sean

Thank you for helping me realize what has happened to the Catholic Church. I believe I was guided by the Holy Ghost to your website and truthful information. Keep up the excellent/hard work. Now, I need to speak out about it but it’s been hard for people to believe the truth. Pray for me and I will pray for your monastery as well. May God bless.

Subject: The Notorious Apostate

Dear MHFM,

Luther founded the false religion of Protestantism in Germany. Adam founded the illuminati sect in Germany. It makes sense the Antipope hails from there, to carry on the torch of the most destructive movements in human memory. He is a Bavarian with extensive illuministic and rabid heretical trappings. It is also beginning to make sense that one of the biggest hoaxes in human history is intimately tied to this place, namely, the Zionist advertised fantasy of mass gassing campaigns allegedly carried out in WWII by the National Socialist Party of Germany. It even imprisons deniers of the ardent beliefs of the gas chamber cult.

There has been a new religion, which professing friendship with the world, and sowing hatred against God’s dogmas, is being steered by the non-Catholic sect led by Antipope Benedict XVI, the apostate successor of the rabid AntiChrist himself John Paul II the Apostate. This new religionism emanating from the Robber Council of Vatican II gave birth to all the bastard sacraments, bastard priests, bastard doctrines, bastard seminaries, bastard churches, and bastard hierarchy that is so well known to us today for its emptiness and dedication to apotheosis – the worship of man.

In the 600+ page work and expose’ that you put together on the Vatican II post conciliar new religion, when you mentioned the historicity of Our Lord and the Scriptures were being attacked in Vatican II colleges, I myself must point out that this is a very big problem. In trying to convert a member of a false religion that went to such a college, he told me the Franciscan “monks” came to teach the “religion” class and they attacked not only the historicity of the Scriptures, but also the historicity of the writers of the Gospels viciously. It almost makes me think such persons were direct infiltrators, but then again people who are aware of the activities of the exploding apostate and continue to consider him to be a staunch Catholic, believe in nothing and can truly be called atheists.The apostate VII sect teaches nothing of the history of the Church, nor anything of the Church Fathers; any semblance of this will only be found in “conservative” wing VII publications and avenues that are connected with the invalid… Mass. On a personal note, I had never heard of mortal sin in my life before, until I was 16; I had some interest in the faith and was in a habit of picking up booklets left out on the table, at a VII church. When I read the little that I found out on mortal sin, I was horrified of having never heard or being taught such a thing in my life. I also had never heard of the prohibition about not eating meat on Fridays….

Occurred

Dear Brothers

A very, very strange thing has occurred in that I found your website quite by accident, but I am convinced God was guiding my typing fingers. Previously I have been a follower of Lucian Pulvermacher ("Pope Pius XIII") and before that, David Bawden ("Pope Michael"). Truly, your site has opened my eyes. Now at last I see where salvation lies after so many years of wandering among dangerous false shepherds…

Coach

Subject: Nebraska Coach

I hope you reach out to the Nebraska assistant coach, Ron Brown, who was so outspoken (and whose story you linked) about homosexuality. I understand that he is almost certainly a "protestant", and a material heretic, but at the same time, it takes an extraordinary amount of courage nowadays for someone with a prestigious, probably lucrative position (Nebraska is a Big 10 school) to be so forthcoming and plain spoken nowadays. Surely to speak against homosexuality in public, in that environment is the ultimate heresy against the modern, false ethos. It signifies grace and goodwill. He is probably in for a hard time in the secular world. He may be open to the complete Truth. I hope so.

Bill Mulligan

MHFM: First, a Protestant who rejects the Catholic faith is not a “material heretic.” He is a formal heretic, which means a true heretic. A “material heretic” is not even a heretic: he is a member of the Catholic Church, an erring Catholic. That man is not a “material heretic.” In fact, he believes in sola fide (faith alone) and sola scriptura (scripture alone).

Second, while it’s good that he has spoken some truth about homosexuality, that’s not an indication of overall good will. Many people of bad will defend some truths with courage: think of the false Catholics who protest abortion, or the false traditionalists who are outspoken about some truth of the faith; yet those same people refuse to submit to what Christ revealed on salvation, and refuse to reject the anti-Christ apostasy of the Vatican II antipopes. Your conclusions are liberal and inconsistent with Catholic teaching.

We do agree with you that he should be contacted with the information, and there’s a chance he might respond.

Subject: on Protestantism

Dear brothers,

As I was reading your e-exchanges section as I do every day (and as I've mentioned before in a previous message, I do that more than once a day) I noticed the two people one named Clark and one name LeeAnn who I have seen in this section before talking about Protestantism. As I was reading what they had to say I felt as though I should ad in my own two cents worth of commentary about Protestantism, I deal with them on a daily basis after all my state is 98.5% Protestant the other 1% is ‘Catholic’ and that last .5% is Eastern Orthodox. Firstly I have to say that anyone who deals with a Protestant needs to bring up to them the one thing that I do, and it usually makes them fuming flaming, cussing, spitting mad.

When it comes to their false belief concerning faith alone just ask them "Since all you have to do is believe in Jesus and you're a "Christian", you are "saved" and going to heaven, since Satan himself believes in Jesus therefore he is a "Christian" also right? And I guess at the end of time he's going to heaven since he believes in Jesus." And when they tell you no, ask them "Well, why not?"

As we all know Satan has counterfeited elements of Christ's church in advance in the centuries before the rise of THE CHURCH and the religion that HE himself established for the benefit and salvation of all mankind. He did this with Zoroastrianism by having them have so called holy water and a priesthood and the use of bells and candles and altars and incense, etc. Satan did this with a lot of religions he founded he even knew enough of Christ's life story in advance to counterfeit those certain elements and spread them out and place them into the stories of these pagan "gods" such as Horus etc., he even went so far as to abominate the truth with Islam that there is one true God. Now why would he not counterfeit Christianity?...

Share

Dear MHFM,

I had a few things I wanted to share during my encounters in trying to convert 2 different kinds of people. I evangelized to an atheist organization and communicated to an atheist woman working there (she is the president of that organization). When I brought up ‘No Salvation Outside the Catholic Church’, she immediately rejected my counsel and said the head of the “Catholic Church” in Australia recently said even the atheists can go to heaven (she must be referring to “Cardinal” George Pell) she even enthusiastically said that eternal hell isn’t such a worry after all. She then wanted evidence of the one True God and His Religion. I brought out the miraculous characteristics of the Holy Shroud of Turin and also Padre Pio’s astounding gifts from God. I brought out so much evidence that she couldn’t refute anything. I mentioned Gemma Di Giorgio being born blind as a result of not having pupils, and Padre Pio restoring her sight, even without her pupils, and that this is anatomically and scientifically impossible. I also said that doctors since her youth have examined her and declared her condition inexplicable. Even though this is the sort of evidence she asked for, she told me to please stop and that I made absurd assertions…

Recall

My Greetings Brothers in Faith,

I can clearly recall the deep feeling of loss when Vat II was "explained to me". Here as a young man who was schooled by the BVM's… Altar Boy at 12… being told "All this is going away--thank God". I knew something was wrong, was criticized for speaking out, and felt left out. I always looked forward to Midnight Mass at Christmas, the majesty of the Gregorian Chants, the feeling of joy, and happiness. The last time I attended a Midnight Mass I thought I was attending a folk music festival, how sad I was. Today I still pray… And stand by what I believe and professed at my confirmation using the words of the Nicene Creed. Thank You for your service to God, and holding true to what some still hold dear.

Dominus Vobiscum,

William Witt

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. We hope you see the rest of the information which covers how one must not attend any of the New Masses, and that the Vatican II Church is not the Catholic Church.

Refuse

Dear brothers,

My name is Doug and I'm a sixteen year old Traditional Catholic who holds the sedevacantist position. However, I have two cousins who are both militant atheistic secularists, and i'm concerned about what the fate of their souls will be. They attend pro-abortion and pro same-sex "marriage" rallies often, hate the Catholic faith, etc. I've tried to give them sacramentals, such as the Miraculous Medal, the Green Scapular, and a Saint Benedict crucifix, but they refuse to accept them. I've even showed them some of your material, such as your videos on Our Lady of Guadalupe, the Exorcism of Emily Rose, Information Proves God, and Creation and Miracles, but even after watching them, they still refuse to believe in the Catholic Faith. Besides praying the Rosary for them, is there anything else I can do to bring them to the Faith?

Sincerely in Our Lady,

Doug

MHFM: Perhaps you tried this already, but you could recommend that they pray the Hail Mary or the Our Father. If they say no, then you definitely should not spend more time on them. As you know, most people are of bad will. If they don’t respond to the grace God is giving them, there’s nothing you can do. You tried to help them (we assume you told them they will go to Hell unless they convert), and now you should move on.

Fruitless

Dear Brothers,

The SSPX is asking their supporters to pray a Novena for Bp. Fellay and antipope Benedict XVI: "The intention of this novena will be that the Holy Ghost may give the graces of light and strength to the Holy Father, Benedict XVI, and to the Superior General of the Society, Bishop Fellay." They could pray Novenas forever and it wouldn't make the slightest improvement to Benedict XVI because he is the False Prophet and an antichrist. Also, The heretic, schismatic and apostate Bp. Fellay blasphemes the Holy Ghost too by his heresies and desire to get in with Rome. It's another big fake show of the Vatican II sect. They will do anything to deny Jesus Christ, the Holy Trinity and the necessity of membership in the Catholic Church and of water baptism for salvation. Sickening and outrageous apostates!!!

Matthew 12:32 - "And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he that shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to come."

John 1:1-5 - "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him: and without him was made nothing that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it."

Protestantism

Dear Brothers:

In reply to Clark's email, MHFM makes the really important point (which we should always keep in mind) that the protestant is an anti-christ who rejects Christ and His word. As MHFM has shown, the Bible declares that the anti-christ is he who denies or dissolves Christ. While JP2 did this explicitly and formally when he sat in the Temple of God, every heresy in some way destroys the truth about Who Christ is. The "Jesus" whom protestants claim to worship is a false Christ. Their "Christ" did not reveal a religion. He did not found a Church or establish the Papacy. He did not fulfill the old form of worship and provide the new. His words are not truth and can be ignored and denied. He did not tell men what they must do to be saved: the protestant tells men what they need to do to be saved. In their hideous cult of pride which is, as Clark has pointed out, nothing more than a hatred of the Catholic faith, they put man in the place of God by insisting that everything God has done, man can do better. Scripture has told us that there was to be one Antichrist but also many little anti-christs over the course of history. Likewise, although there would be only one counterfeit "Catholic" Church and religion at the end of time, it too was to be preceded by many false sects of perdition calling themselves "Christian churches". The endtimes counterfeit "church" with its heretical religion is God's punishment of the world for the sins of the world, including the horrible, world-destroying sin of heresy.

In their utter blindness, these people cannot see that heresy was the cause of the fall of Satan: he thought he knew better than God, and preferring his own will to God's, will get to command for all eternity those men who will have followed his example. The "new truth", as the Antichrist JP2 put it, is simply the old lie.

Subject: Critical dismantling of heretic pillars

Dear MHFM,

It seems that the up and coming self-appointed leaders of the Protestant community and daily springing denominations feel the need to establish their intellectual and “theological” bona fides of Protestant “legitimacy” by engaging the greater part of their time in stirring their congregations in polemics towards what they perceive to be Catholicity; after throwing in a few straw men and many other misconceptions against the Catholic Faith, it would almost seem that the newly springing denominations exist and find this as their only purpose. Instead of arguing and criticizing their parent denomination from which they broke, they align their deadly emotions towards Catholicity.. it would seem that basically all the denominations have an inherent characteristic of unifying and attacking the Church through lies and half-truths, rather than attacking their fellow Protestant parent denomination's doctrines, because that’s where their sympathies lie.

Protestantism is ever a prey of party disputes, dissensions… rivalries… denominations… in the Protestant false religion… each disagree with the other on the most fundamental points of doctrine. They cannot agree and keep dividing and subdividing by the year. Their only similarity appears to be their opposition to the Catholic Church. Today the divisions and subdivisions of Protestantism are too well known to need comment.

Another illogicality of Protestantism lies in an absence of a continuity of Apostolic Succession. The 16^th century Protestant outbreak was never commissioned by the Apostles. Their self-appointed “ministers” cannot trace their lineage back to the time of the Apostles. Protestant revolters simply sent themselves upon whim and rebellion against Our Lord. They abandoned the exegetic patrimony of the Church; and shunned the unanimous consent of the Fathers.

… Clark

MHFM: Yes, it’s difficult to describe the righteous indignation one has in hearing a Protestant talk about Scripture and the idea that Catholicism contradicts it. It’s an outrage to hear a Protestant talk about the Bible, as if he is on the side of the word of God and the Catholic is lost, when he (the Protestant) is actually an anti-Christ heretic who rejects Christ and His word.

Subject: Farm Worker parable

This is a parable that Jesus told. It applies to the Vatican 2 false church:

21:33-40 - "Now listen to another story. There was once a man, a land-owner, who planted a vineyard, fenced it round, dug out a hole for the wine-press and built a watch-tower. Then he let it out to farm-workers and went abroad. When the vintage-time approached he sent his servants to the farm-workers to receive his share of the proceeds. But they took the servants, beat up one, killed another, and drove off a third with stones. Then he sent some more servants, a larger party than the first, but they treated them in just the same way. Finally he sent his own son, thinking, 'They will respect my son.' Yet when the farm-workers saw the son they said to each other, 'This fellow is the future owner. Come on, let's kill him and we shall get everything that he would have had!' So they took him, threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. Now when the owner of the vineyard returns, what will he do to those farm-workers?"

The V2 are actually worse, for they were not "let" the farm by the land owner (God). Instead, they usurped the role of the rightful farm workers and took it upon themselves to farm without permission and steal...

Asked

Dear Brothers,

Last night at work I was having lunch with an acquaintance. She is an employee who works on another floor. She befriended me and I think she may be romantically interested in me. She brought her food from home to share with me. She is a Seventh Day Adventist. While eating lunch she asked me what I normally bring to work to eat. I told her sometimes I make ham and cheese sandwiches. She gave me such a ridiculous response. She claims the Bible says anyone who eats pig will not go to Heaven. I replied that only Catholics will go to Heaven. She then proceeded to criticize Catholics with the usual Protestant rhetoric, that we worship idols (images and statues of saints and Mary), etc. I thought of giving her a copy of your book, The Bible Proves the Teachings of the Catholic Church. However she does not read English very well. Her native language is French and Haitian creole. I doubt if you have any of your books available in French but is there a possibility in the future you could work on that just like you have your website in Spanish? I'm a Haitian-American and can communicate with her in her native tongue. It's a shame that during this Great Apostasy so many of them have apostatized from the true faith and have founded their own heretical sects or joined another. I know of numerous examples. Haiti was once 95% Catholic but I read somewhere recently that it has dropped to about 80%, if my memory serves me well. Of course this is Novus Ordo but the point is that many of them have rejected Catholicism altogether.

Found out

Dear Brothers,

I'm an 18 year old male and found out when I was about 16 about the Vatican II church and have since then abjured from it and all past heresy. My only dilemma now is that I have social anxiety, depression and general anxiety and it keeps me from preaching my faith and living out a true catholic life…

Phil

MHFM: Thanks for the interest. We believe that if you pray the full Rosary each day; make a good general confession of any un-confessed mortal sins to a valid priest; live the life of grace; and ask for special assistance to overcome your anxiety, then it will pass.

Eucharist

… Jesus tells us in John 6:54,"Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life"(The New American Bible, Fireside Bible Publishers). It seems like the Eucharist is just as important as Baptism in order to receive eternal life or am i missing something?

Thank you and God Bless

Adrian

MHFM: There is a necessity to receive the Eucharist: for all who hear the command and can fulfill it. However, it is not absolutely necessary in the way that water baptism is absolutely necessary for every man. This is discussed in section 22 of our salvation book.

JOHN 3:5 VS. JOHN 6:54

Some writers have tried to refute a literal interpretation of John 3:5 by appealing to the words of Our Lord in John 6:54: “Amen, amen I say to you: Except you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you.” They argue that the language in this verse is the same as in John 3:5, and yet the Church doesn’t take Jn. 6:54 literally – for infants don’t need to receive the Eucharist to be saved. But the argument falters because the proponents of this argument have missed a crucial difference in the wording of these two verses.

John 6:54- “Amen, amen I say to you: EXCEPT YOU eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you.”

John 3:5- “Amen, amen I say to thee, UNLESS A MAN be born again of water and the Holy Ghost, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”

Our Lord Jesus Christ, when speaking on the necessity of receiving the Eucharist in John 6:54, does not say: “unless a man eat the flesh of the Son of man…” He says: “Except you…” His words, therefore, are clearly intended for the people to whom He was speaking, not every man. Since the people to whom He was speaking could eventually receive the Eucharist, they had to in order to be saved. This applies to all who can receive the Eucharist, that is, all who hear that command and can fulfill it, which is what the Church teaches. But in John 3:5, Our Lord unequivocally speaks of every man. This is why the Catholic Church’s magisterial teaching, in every single instance it has dealt with John 3:5, has taken it as it is written.

The difference in the wording of these two verses actually shows the supernatural inspiration of the Bible and the absolute necessity of water baptism for every man.

Dalai Lama

No surprise if the "Dalai Lama" is a mason---in fact I think it would be a bit more of a surprise if he were NOT one! Since "the whole world is seated in wickedness"............however, the "Dalai Lama" is slimier than most. I remember one day I was sitting at my desk in my college house studying when I happened to glance out the window and there he was, the "Dalai Lama" came slithering through our campus en route to some "talk" that day on campus...........what a slimy critter, and he doesn't seem to age much either which is a bit odd. He is just like a serpent, yuck. How deluded so many are!

Golgotha

I have been contemplating a lot about the unspeakable scene at Golgotha, the Crucifixion of Jesus, gesmas and Dismas, imagine the Tree of Life in the Midst and the reprobate on the left and the elect on the right… while Jesus is in utter pain and misery because of Dismas' sins {and mine}, Jesus doesn't even consider His own unimaginable pain, He turns to Dismas… Jesus provided everything for Dismas, the Grace of repentance {to acknowledge and say I'm truly sorry}, the Grace of Penance {Dismas', death on the cross}, unto Salvation….

MHFM: We should point out that many people wrongly bring up the Good Thief as an example against the necessity of water baptism, when he is not, as this video covers: The Good Thief, the Old Testament Saints, and the Necessity of Baptism [video]

Concerned

I enjoy reading your writings which brings me back in time when the nuns talked the same way regarding salvation. Mortal sin for missing Mass on Sunday, mortal sin for eating meat on Friday's etc. Salvation is found in the Catholic church & everyone else is a heretic. The message I am concerned with is your position with the most recent Pope's. I find it hard to believe, that these traveling Pope's who visit other countries, can afford to be candid with your positions that would be very offensive to other believer's. They are giving a message within a very delicate way to avoid hatred, that will cause many Catholics to lose their lives, in many of these countries. You can't make friends by telling them that they are going to HELL.

I was told that the Holy Spirit works within the church & when the conclave of cardinals reach a decision, white smoke indicates that through the working of the Holy Spirit, a Pope is selected. Are you concerned that you may be guilty of the most serious sin in scripture, which is the sin against the Spirit?

Thanks

MHFM: A Catholic has an obligation to tell the truth wherever he may be. Martyrs shed their blood rather than deny one article of the faith; yet you are proposing that it’s somehow justified to praise false religions in the hope that their leaders will deal more leniently with Catholics? That’s contrary to the faith. Moreover, the notion that the Vatican II antipopes are simply praising false religions in order to make friends or be polite is not reality. They praise false religions from within the comfort of the Vatican. They enshrine their heretical teaching on non-Catholics within official documents. They willingly take part in syncretic gatherings that have been condemned by the Church. They believe and promote the heretical idea that Christ and the Church are not necessary. They are apostates. That’s simply a fact.

You say that you cannot make friends by telling people they will go to Hell. Yes, you can. Jesus told everyone in the world that unless they believe in Him they will go to Hell (Mk. 16:16); and He also said that those who listened to His commands are His friends: “You are my friends, if you do the things that I command you” (John 15:14). A true friend tells his neighbor the truth. He doesn’t hide it from him. He doesn’t tell him he’s going to Heaven if, in fact, he’s going to Hell.

Finally, you are wrong about the conclave. The Church teaches that a heretic cannot be validly elected pope, since a heretic is not a member of the Catholic Church. The mere fact that an election has occurred does not mean a valid occupant of the papal throne has been chosen, as Church history and Catholic teaching prove. That’s covered in detail on our website and in our videos.
