Keep up that line of thinking, @occasnltrvlr, and one day you will learn, first-hand, who Jesus was referring to when he told the Apostles that “it would better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck, and he were cast into the sea. “
If Bishop Schneider is just now figuring this out no wonder our Church is in serious trouble. His statement suggests that he only recently picked up one of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre’s books on the hijacking of Vatican II, SMH
This man will answer to God, of course, but so will the Conciliar-inspired popes, bishops and priests who initiated and continue to promote the false teachings that have grown out of the Second Vatican Council which gave rise to the Satanically-inspired beliefs taking place today. It is those religious beliefs that have allowed this foolish man to likely believe that what he is doing will not displease God. Indeed, his ignorance is confirmed for his family by the prelate and priests who approved his “Catholic” funeral. The Pope and many bishops and priests of the Conciliar religion today may piously shake their heads in disapproval of euthanasia, but God knows that in their heart of hearts they realize that they are part of a religion that steadily moves further away from the authentic teachings of the Catholic Church—the only religion established by Jesus Christ. For the sake of their souls I pray they wake up to the truth.
@QQ I believe you meant to say Gloria TV is not Conciliarist. Gloria TV is certainly Catholic, as they adhere to all the authentic teachings of the Catholic Church, many of which were modified, dropped or ignored after Vatican II. You would be wise to learn more about this topic before offering comments on sites where most commenters are well-informed about the Catholic faith.
@Lionel Leslie Andrades Would you kindly explain what you mean by your very general statements. Perhaps you could share some examples of actions or behaviors that have led you to conclude what you have.
...yet, Pope Leo XIV allows this man to remain in the episcopacy, while overseeing the excommunication of the six, holy bishops the FSSPX. How does this Pope sleep at nights knowing that God sees everything?
Gloria TV continues to bring these shocking matters to our attention and I genuinely appreciate being informed. However, as @Father Karl A Claver has noted, I'm no longer shocked. Many years ago I would have been, but I now recognize that it is not Catholicism. It is an entirely different religion. Yes, the Pope and the bishops are still members of the Catholic Church but most of them have nearly entirely abandoned authentic teachings and promote Conciliarism, the diabolically-inspired religion of Vatican II that continues to lead many away from God. Although Rome has rejected the SSPX which continues to profess only the authentic teachings of Catholicism, faithful Catholics will to be fooled. Yet, many Catholics who have been indoctrinated into following their false religion will continue to drift further away from the truth. Sadly, too, many of these souls are family members who blindly refuse to read the publications that explain what has happened to the Church or even listen to explanations from their faithful Catholic relatives. Nevertheless, all we can do is pray for them.
Yet, he conveniently overlooks the Conciliar religion's "manifest authentic-Catholicism irregularities." If questioned, of course, Kwasniewski would disagree with a significant amount of the current Conciliar practices being winked at or promoted by the Conciliar popes, bishops and priests. I suspect that he wants to try to keep one foot in each camp so he can project himself as being a "Catholic" for all readers. "But because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold, not hot, I will begin to vomit thee out of my mouth."
I'm not sure I'd agree with the comment by this writer that Vance was assigning himself a "grand role" in God's plans. Shouldn't we all be doing God's work while we're here? Perhaps I've missed something in what was said.
There is no worldly solution for the Middle East crisis. There will only be peace when the Jews acknowledge that Jesus Christ is the Messiah and accept Him as their Lord and Savior. Then there will be peace.
Even though the laity is unable to see what is happening to the Conciliarist-led Church in Rome, surely the bishops and many priests see it. And while they may please some, they do not please God, and one day they will face God and will fully understand what Jesus Christ meant when He said: to whom much is given, much is expected.
For the record, the excommunication are on appeal. Under canon Law they are suspended until a final determination is made. The FSSPX has a very strong case on multiple grounds that would place them is a very favorable position of prevailing before a fair tribunal. Whether they will have that fair tribunal remains to be seen, but until there is a final determination by the Pope, even in the eyes of the Conciliarists they are every bit as valid as the judgmental bishop who banned them from Lourdes. The bishop should withdraw his ruling and apologize.
A great statement on the part of Bishop Schneider, but I'm afraid he innocently believes the Conciliar leaders of the Church, including Pope Leo XIV, are interested in suppressing Modernism and re-establishing the authentic teachings of the Catholic Church. He is incredibly naive to not realize what the Conciliarists are actually promoting, as I don't believe he is duplicitous.
Well said, @solipso. By branding himself a "conservative," he attracts confused Catholics and ultimately serves the Conciliarists. While he is correct that the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM) will never be suppressed, it is not for the secular reasons he claims, such as its popularity among young people. Instead, the TLM and the SSPX will endure because of Christ's own promise: the gates of hell will not prevail against His Church.
A clever but meaningless pronouncement. Pope Leo XIV would feel quite comfortable in offering similar assurances. The problem with Conciliarism is that the teachings of the Second Vatican Council have allowed the Modernist leaders to determine what "contradicts or calls into question the doctrine of the Church." They call it a "living" Magisterium.
Sadly, most Catholics are now "Conciliar Catholics." And since Conciliarism is an ever-evolving religion its tenets are constantly being updated. But make no mistake, Conciliarism is Satanically driven and Satan's ultimate goal is to destroy the Catholic Church. Faithful Catholics know that will never happen, but the authentic Catholic Church will suffer greatly as Rome moves further away from the truth through Synodality. And while the role of the SSPX is still unclear to many, all should recognize that it is the only priestly organization celebrating the TLM that adheres exclusively to the authentic teachings that pre-dated Vatican II. The most revealing clue as to its legitimacy, however, is that the SSPX is the only priestly organization that the Conciliarists in Rome regularly attack and work to destroy. There are relatively few Catholics who assist at the SSPX Masses, but as Jesus told us, when He returns He expects to find very few who have not loss their faith.
This priest should really have known how offensive his remarks were. Apparently he was under the impression that he was a priest in the Catholic Church where Jesus Christ ordered His followers to “go ye therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost. No. He’s a Conciliarist! What is absolutely amazing, though, is that Conciliarists who call themselves Catholic, are so indoctrinated they believe the SSPX is schismatic.
