BEHOLD I AM WITH YOU ALL DAYS EVEN TO THE END OF THE WORLD

My Reasons and follow-on

The reason I am writing this 'diary' is because it is stressful to see the door closing....receding into the distance....growing smaller and smaller, the door that will allow people who know they are sinners to enter and be cleansed...freed from the bondage that even good souls know they cannot change permanently.  They wish  to be free of the self-discipline to ensure they remain as good as possible.   Even the 'just man' sins seven times a day....so what is the answer?   It occurred to me that my whole nature had to be changed but how?  

A child starts by learning his a,b,c...how to write the letters and how to pronounce them.   Then he learns  to  put  the  words together to form a sentence.  But what is happening here that is unseen?
He puts down a sentence to convey an idea.   An idea is unseen until it is expressed verbally or written down.   It is HIS idea.  It is original.   Eventually, as he continues his learning, he reads stories and begins to enjoy other people's ideas that have been made visible and/or audible.
This in turn triggers emotions of joy, sadness, interest, curiosity etc.   When his learning is completed and  is a man he has left behind the need for those first steps.  His ideas flow through language and the written word, and he receives ideas from others the same way.   Everything he does and thinks is done naturally..no need any more to labour through each letter and sound.  This is what I mean when I say that a good man wants to be free of the a,b,c,'s of trying to be good by 'nature'.....no, not nature now - 'supernature'   He would love to have a permanent disposition in his soul that flows as his existence flows in ordinary nature.   This is attainable gradually step by step if he follows the a,b,c's of our beautiful Catholic faith. 

Vast numbers have entered and live in an evironment where their redemption is already taking place...where souls  are being changed, purified  by sheer gift of a mercy won by the  minute-by-minute sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus Christ.   Trying to understand it through our human nature is impossible.  It is something that has to be infused into us, like a blood transfusion into an infected blood system.  


Reason can lead me to that door. It is no good denying that my human nature is  infected when I see how prone I am to being deceived and to the evil deeds done by men.  I see so much hatred and enmity around.  It is no good denying this reality.   It has to be recognised, not because I say so, or because I 'believe' it and am forcing it on others.  Do I believe that there is difference between good and evil?   Yes, I do!   And what I see is a world growing more evil day by day.    If evil is not identified and purged then blindness has set in.   So many are prepared to exploit this blindness, our denial to recognise that we need to change the state of our souls that stubbornly refuse to submit to any authority outside of ourseves...man alone is his own authority.   He can do what he likes full stop.   Well, if that is our attitude then God is leaving us to it.  


It appears that some powerful people have made hate a way of life.   Organisations dedicated solely to the destruction of the Catholic Church  proliferate with the same objective as those in the time of Christ on earth who tortured and killed him.  The descendents of those enemies, as also those that preceded them, have continued their single-minded purpose to do the same to Christ's Church.   They have brilliantly succeeded in bringing about that destruction as outlined on the Home Page so that just as Christ's followers were scattered so too Catholics are scattered because of false prophet/wolves in sheep's clothing.    What has happened to such haters - in their souls?  Well, at least one thing can be said...there is a sorting out process going on.   The destroyers on the one hand and the followers of Christ on the other.*   The door marked 'Redemption' is slowly becoming unavailable.


Christ has been silenced by the betrayal  of ravening wolves in sheep's clothing so that evil is now dressed up as good.  They  have  reached  the  throne  of  Peter  itself  using  the  instrument  of  the Vatican  II Council.  Could one ever have imagined that we would have a pope that has redefined the Catholic faith in his own image?   Who conjectures if it is necessary to believe that Christ was a historical figure?*    How does a  Pope offer the sacrifice of the Mass legitimately or validly after enticing debate on Christ's historical existence?   It is the dogmatic infallible teaching of the Church that Christ spoke in St. John's gospel saying, 'Unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood you shall not have life in you.'?   A Catholic, let alone a prelate,  a future pope, has no authority to open up for debate what has been declared infallible truth.  It is understandable if unbelievers  do it if trying to arrive at some understanding of the matter - and if the Pope was merely showing how broad-minded/ecumenical/clever he was without doubting it himself - then how does he account for the faith being doubted by believers?  I accuse John Paul II of deserting the flock, leaving us to our fate, while he drew outsiders to a compromising ecumenical religion that has been stripped of certainties - a one-size-fits-all religion that destroys everything that has been built up since those first apostles. 

*Refer Wojtyla's book "Person and Action " where 37 theses are put forward for debate ...
I have merely mentioned one, but all of them contradict directly the teachings of the Church.
To debate these matters with a view to proving their fallacies can only be laudable, but these ideas have been publicly legitimised by the Pope and have actually become the new one-world religion      


Our recently beatified pope has watered down  the role of 'devil's advocate' making possible his 'beatification' alongside truly faithful and holy saints whose teachings he contradicted and who's predecessor was barely stopped short of being beatified by the courage of one or two people in proving his even greater unworthiness.


Legally and validly elected popes occupy the highest position in the Catholic Church and cannot be judged by man, that is, tried and judged in a court of law.   Neither can the world  judge him for it is by God's standards that Popes have to give an account of their stewardship in representing Christ's truth to the world.   A Pope is absolutely trusted by the family of Catholics as children trust their father, and so it is still with so many  who simply love the faith  that lives on in their hearts.

                                Father Luigi Villa : author of  'Pope VI Beatified?
                                             

AVH: The two books I mentioned were published in 1998 and 2000 by an Italian priest, Don Luigi Villa of the diocese of Brescia, who at the request of Padre Pio has devoted many years of his life to the investigation of the possible infiltration of both Freemasons and Communists into the Church. My husband and I met Don Villa in the sixties. He claims that he does not make any statement that he cannot substantiate. When Paulo Sesto Beato? (1998) was published the book was sent to every single Italian bishop. None of them acknowledged receipt; none challenged any of Don Villa's claims.


In this book, he relates something that no ecclesiastical authority has refuted or asked to be retracted -- even though he names particular personalities in regard to the incident. It pertains to the rift between Pope Pius XII and then Bishop Montini (the future Paul VI) who was his Undersecretary of State. Pius XII, conscious of the threat of Communism, which in the aftermath of World War II was dominating nearly half of Europe, had prohibited the Vatican staff from dealing with Moscow. To his dismay, he was informed one day through the Bishop of Upsala (Sweden) that his strict order had been contravened. The Pope resisted giving credence to this rumor until he was given incontrovertible evidence that Montini had been corresponding with various Soviet agencies. Meanwhile, Pope Pius XII (as had Pius XI) had been sending priests clandestinely into Russia to give comfort to Catholics behind the Iron Curtain. Every one of them had been systematically arrested, tortured, and either executed or sent to the gulag. Eventually a Vatican mole was discovered: Alighiero Tondi, S.J., who was a close advisor to Montini. Tondi was an agent working for Stalin whose mission was to keep Moscow informed about initiatives such as the sending of priests into the Soviet Union.


Add to this Pope Paul's treatment of Cardinal Mindszenty. Against his will, Mindszenty was ordered by the Vatican to leave Budapest. As most everyone knows, he had escaped the Communists and sought refuge in the American embassy compound. The Pope had given him his solemn promise that he would remain primate of Hungary as long as he lived. When the Cardinal (who had been tortured by the Communists) arrived in Rome, Paul VI embraced him warmly, but then sent him to exile in Vienna. Shortly afterwards, this holy prelate was informed that he had been demoted, and had been replaced by someone more acceptable to the Hungarian Communist government. More puzzling, and tragically sad, is the fact that when Mindszenty died, no Church representative was present at his burial.


Another of Don Villa's illustrations of infiltration is one related to him by Cardinal Gagnon. Paul VI had asked Gagnon to head an investigation concerning the infiltration of the Church by powerful enemies. Cardinal Gagnon (at that time Archbishop) accepted this unpleasant task, and compiled a long dossier, rich in worrisome facts. When the work was completed, he requested an audience with Pope Paul in order to deliver personally the manuscript to the Pontiff. This request for a meeting was denied. The Pope sent word that the document should be placed in the offices of the Congregation for the Clergy, specifically in a safe with a double lock. This was done, by the very next day the safe deposit box was broken and the manuscript mysteriously disappeared. The usual policy of the Vatican is to make sure the news of such incidents never sees the light of day. Nevertheless, this theft was reported even in L'Osservatore Romano (perhaps under pressure because it had been reported in the secular press). Cardinal Gagnon, of course, had a copy, and once again asked the Pope for a private audience. Once again his request was denied. He then decided to leave Rome and return to his homeland in Canada. Later, he was called back to Rome by Pope John Paul II and made a cardinal.


TLM: Why did Don Villa write these works singling out Paul VI for criticism?


AVH: Don Villa reluctantly decided to publish the books to which I have alluded. But when several bishops pushed for beatification of Paul VI, this priest perceived it as a clarion call to print the information he had gathered through the years. In so doing, he was following the guidelines of a Roman Congregation, informing the faithful that it was their duty as members of the Church to relay to the Congregation any information that might militate against the candidate's qualifications for beatification.


Considering the tumultuous pontificate of Paul VI, and the confusing signals he was giving, e.g.: speaking about the "smoke of Satan that had entered the Church," yet refusing to condemn heresies officially; his promulgation of Humanae Vitae (the glory of his pontificate), yet his careful avoidance of proclaiming it ex cathedra; delivering his Credo of the People of God in Piazza San Pietro in 1968, and once again failing to declare it binding on all Catholics; disobeying the strict orders of Pius XII to have no contact with Moscow, and appeasing the Hungarian Communist government by reneging on the solemn promise he had made to Cardinal Mindszenty; his treatment of holy Cardinal Slipyj, who had spent seventeen years in a Gulag, only to be made a virtual prisoner in the Vatican by Paul VI; and finally asking Archbishop Gagnon to investigate possible infiltration in the Vatican, only to refuse him and audience when his work was completed -- all these speak strongly against the beatification of Paolo VI, dubbed in Rome, "Paolo Sesto, Mesto" (Paul VI, the sad one).

These “facts” and “statements” of John Paul II are good reasons to judge the proposal for “beatification,” as being superficial, and simplistic, lacking serious investigation
and thorough analysis into his personality, both recent and past, despite the fact that it was declared “desirable” by the current Pope Benedict VXI.
I think it is sufficient to now conclude these historical “facts” and “statements.” Many others could be added to this highly questionable Polish Pope.  A Pope who so abused Christianity, by dragging it to serve Man and not God. Let us remember the prophecy of Pius XII: «There will come a day when the civilized world will renounce God.»
I close with the words the famous Italian writer, Indro Montanelli, who, after a conversation he had with John Paul II and  after  calling  him  “a  subversive  Pope”,  asked  himself:
«… but what Church does he have in mind?  … Toward what kind of Church, will Pope John Paul II set off the Catholic one?»  Here are the words of Indro Montanelli:  «In a conversation with John Paul II in his private apartment ... I knew, or thought I understood, that this Pope would leave behind a pile of rubble: that of the authoritarian and hierarchical structure of the Roman Curia.   Now I understand that this perception was a vaguely catastrophic error, yes, but by default;  as that which Pope John Paul II will leave behind, is not only the ruins of the Roman Curia but of the Church, at least of that one which we have been accustomed to for two thousand years and regard as such and that which we, the laity, ourselves, have in our blood.» (Indro Montanelli – “Corriere della Sera”, March 9, 2000).
