Jesus: “They will think that killing you is worship of God” (Jn 16:2)

  • “The time is coming when anyone who kills you will think they are offering worship to God.” (Jn 16:2)

I always used to imagine that the “anyone” to whom Jesus was referring was someone else, you know, “those other guys,” not us. But it isn’t always that way. The “anyone” to whom Jesus refers is one of us, like Judas.

In Signorelli’s fresco, the Dominican friar who has just been axed to death is surely Saint Peter Martyr (of Verona). His assassin was a Catholic, a heretical Catholic, but a Catholic nonetheless, who later converted and became a friar himself.

The ones directing this murder as worship of god is the anti-Christ and Satan. It’s hard to tell whose hand is the one pointing down to the martyred saint:

The anti-Christ looks just like Christ Jesus, doesn’t he? That’s the point: like Christ in all things but innocence.

Today, we have bishops and priests who push the murder of babies in order to extol “vaccines”. If a pharmaceutical company takes a healthy, fully developed baby, removing it’s organs while it is still alive, being taken out of the womb, in order to do research and/or development and/or testing, it’s all murder. That baby is so very dead, no matter if it was for the research, the development or the testing, whether one or two or all of those things. One is not morally better or worse than the other. Murder is murder. Dead is dead. Killing the image of Jesus, the least of the brethren, is still killing the image of Jesus, the least of the brethren. Every time.

Seminarians around the world are being called ideologues if they don’t get “vaccinated”. They are being thrown out of seminaries. They will not be ordained. Those Jesus called to offer His Holy Sacrifice are themselves being cut down, that is, by seminary rectors, therefore by bishops, you know, bishops who look just like Jesus (see above).

Priests are also being told that if they don’t get “vaccinated” they will not be able to do anything for anyone, no more baptisms, no more confirmations, no more Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, no more Holy Communion, no more confessions, no more marriages, no more last rites, and it will be useless to promote acceptance of a vocation. Priests are thus also being cut down by those bishops who think that in doing so they are offering pure worship to God.

Most of all, it is the culture of death mentality that has crept into the Church. The culture of death becomes a cult of death, a worship of death, not Jesus laying down His life for us, but the murder of the most vulnerable, the least of the brethren. “That’s what true love is!” they proclaim.

The time has already arrived in which “they” – those among us – think that murdering the image of Jesus is worship of God.

UPDATE: Aussie mum on Fulton Sheen’s take on the Anti-Christ

FROM AUSSIE MUM:

“It makes sense that Modern Times which started with dismembering the Church would end with the triumph of Mary’s Immaculate Heart, that Heart that gave its all to bring the Church to birth. Our Lord would surely want this for His Mother before the end of the world given all that she suffered in solidarity with Him for our sakes.

“Venerable Fulton Sheen seemed to think that the anti-Christ is imminent. I don’t necessarily agree. The spirit of anti-Christ has certainly taken hold though and that is what I think our Immaculate Mother will triumph over. Our Lady said, “In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me and she will be converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world” (July 13th, 1917). Hence, the world does not come to an end with her triumph, not until after a period of peace has followed. Presumably the anti-Christ will arrive during that peaceful period, destroying it, and Our Lord will deal with him directly.

“In summary, the period Venerable Fulton Sheen speaks of is, I think, two linked periods which were introduced by the visual presentation of the Woman of the Apocalypse in 1531, setting the scene for both:

(1) the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary over the Spirit of anti-Christ rampant today; and

(2) the end of history, Christ dealing directly with the anti-Christ.

“Surprising visuals, only given in Modern Times and both miraculous

(1) The words describing Our Lady and the Church in the last book of the Bible written approximately a millennium and a half earlier, depicted visually in 1531 by Our Lady of Guadalupe

(2) The words describing Our Lady in the first book of the Bible set at the dawn of history, depicted visually in 1830 in the design Our Lady gave for the front of the Miraculous Medal (Our Lady crushing the head of the serpent)

Rome, Anti-Christ & Great Apostasy: Archbishop Fulton Sheen

In the last few days I’ve been hearing much about Fulton Sheen’s take way back in 1948, about Padre Pio’s take way back around 1960, about Our Lady of Fatima and the great apostasy and the one about whom we would have the presentiment that he is the Holy Father (what a strange way of phrasing that description). I call to mind Don Bosco’s vision of the great battle and that the Church would be anchored between the Eucharist and Jesus’ mother (both smashed down today…). And so on and so forth…

My head has been spinning with the in fine velocior events (those untoward happenings which occur at a much faster rate when we arrive to the end), spinning, that is, until, the other day, offering Holy Mass ad orientem, I was terribly distracted, as it were, by another kind of presentiment altogether, that Jesus was very much with me at that Most Holy Sacrifice of His. I know academically and with devotion that the priest acts in Persona Christi, in the Person of Christ, at the Consecrations at Holy Mass, but this was happening just before those Consecrations. My take-away from such an experience, if you will, is – how to say – a deeper impression in my very being that Christ our God is always with us.

I’ve been preaching that mankind is always and everywhere in every culture (or lack thereof) the very same, what with all the weaknesses of original sin, so that it is only political correctness one way or the other in the swinging of a pendulum, from fake-peace to all-out bloodshed, that generally people are faking that they are good people while a fake-peace reigns or that they are good people while they openly commit the bloodshed. There are always a percentage of men who are stably with the Lord Jesus, who see and thank Jesus for those wounds of His, and who therefore admit our fallen condition and are in humble thanksgiving to the Lord right through any times of fake-peace or any times of all-out bloodshed while the ever swinging societal pendulum swings away, and there are always a percentage of men who are violently simmering with their violence just below the surface, who wish they could be more violent in times of fake-peace, and who rejoice when all-out bloodshed is countenanced by political correctness. But Jesus is always, always with us, wherever the pendulum of political correctness happens to be.

At the end of the Apocalypse we read about the attitude we are always to have, through fake-peace and through violence: we are to be crying out with great enthusiasm and insistence, “Come, Lord Jesus! Maranatha! Let’s get this done! Yay! Finally! Let’s bear witness to Jesus! Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!”
