+WELBY RESIGNED - NEXT IT COULD BE FRANCIS

Jorge Mario Bergoglio is a heretic and an antipope. Now he's looking like a heretic, an antipope and a sadist. While supplanting the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church with the post-conciliar, Novus Ordo Synodal Bergoglian sect, he has deprived the diocese of Tyler, Texas of the Traditional Latin Mass, exactly one year after he sacked its faithful shepherd, Bishop Joseph Strickland. One can only imagine the grief 'America's Bishop' now shares with his flock. 

Just the day before Bergoglio took his revenge on his courageous critic +Strickland, Ed Condon, editor and cofounder of The Pillar commented on the Príncipi case saying, “Frankly, I am running out of innocent explanations here.”  The story of convicted priest child abuser Ariel Alberto Príncipi’getting off - and Antipope Francis' involvement - resonates with the resignation 2 days ago of 'Archbishop' Justin Welby, following a damning report into a prolific child abuser associated with the Church of England. 

If the head of the Church of England can face the music on sex abuse, so can the head of the Catholic Church. Francis is in fact not the head of the Catholic Church but as its pretender, usurper pope he can be brought to justice, in this world as he will be in the next. It's astonishing that prelates, priests and people still call him 'Pope Francis' but that can change too. The God Who ordained that Donald Trump should win three consecutive presidential elections can drive fear of the truth from Catholic hearts.

 I returned from the Martinmas festivities today to face the news that has hit American traditionalists since last Saturday. As many American Trads were still celebrating the victory of Trump, the Vatican Regime of New Iconoclasm struck the little diocese of Tyler, Texas.

JUST IN: #Vatican cracks down on Traditional Latin Mass in Tyler,Texas, one year after Bishop Strickland’s removal. Dicastery for Divine Worship informs current apostolic administrator that celebrations according to the 1962 Missal at the Cathedral will end as of Nov 30th. (1/2)

 

 

As you may recall, the Vatican regime previously cut off the head of the diocese, Bishop Strickland, for the unpardonable crime of preaching Catholicism, all while giving “Rapenik” a parish. 

What follows is that story, published by One Peter Five exactly a year before. 

 

 "RAPENIK" GETS A PARISH, STRICKLAND GETS REMOVED

TS Flanders, November 11 2023

(It's now more than a year since the Vatican announced it would open a canonical case on 'Rapenik' - Father Marko Rupnik, the famous mosaic artist and former Jesuit accused of spiritual, psychological, and sexual abuse. Victims say they feel disappointment and betrayal at the Church’s lack of response and transparency.) 

 

News broke this morning that the stalwart man of God, Bishop Strickland of Tyler Texas was removed from his diocese.

 

The official announcement was terse:

The Holy Father has removed Bishop Joseph E. Strickland from the pastoral care of the diocese of Tyler, United States of America, and has appointed Bishop Joe Vásquez of Austin as apostolic administrator of the same diocese, rendering it sede vacante.

This is the definition of arbitrary power: the reason given is that it is the will of the Pope.

This is the definition of bishops being treated as “Vicars of the Roman Pontiff” (condemned by Lumen Gentium).

This is the definition of the spirit of Vatican I.

The Catholic Church has become a tyranny of arbitrary power, wielded by the vicar of Logos Incarnate. It is the very essence of anti-Logos: voluntarism.

What is voluntarist justice? The will of the stronger power over the weaker power.

The Pope is not bound by laws of God or laws of men – canon law, Tradition, whatever else may bind him to justice.

His will is law. His whim is decree.

The Pope says to all laws and customs and obligations to follow charity: non serviam.

The Pope says to all justice and due process: non serviam. 

The Pope says to the cries of the faithful little ones, spiritually abused by wicked clerics, heretics, and the worldwide regime of Marxist globalism: non serviam. 

The Pope says to Mercy Himself: non serviam.

Cardinal Pell of happy memory, one of the Pope’s key advisors, summed up this pontificate well when he said:

Commentators of every school, if for different reasons, with the possible exception of Father Spadaro, SJ, agree that this pontificate is a disaster in many or most respects; a catastrophe… Previously it was: “Roma locuta. Causa finita est.” Today it is: “Roma loquitur. Confusio augetur.”

 

Yes it’s a disaster. Yes it’s a catastrophe. 

 

But it’s more than confusion. It’s naked injustice.

 

The juxtaposition of “Rapenik” getting a parish and Strickland being forced out accurately sums up this pontificate’s cries to heaven for vengeance. (After years of outcry, the “Great Reformer” Pope Francis has been forced to lift the statute of limitations on Rupnik.)

 

Thanks be to God, the good bishop has been counted worthy to suffer for the Faith! And they indeed went from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were accounted worthy to suffer reproach for the name of Jesus  (Acts v. 41).

Blessed are ye when they shall revile you, and persecute you, and speak all that is evil against you, untruly, for my sake: Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is very great in heaven. For so they persecuted the prophets that were before you (Mt. v. 11-12).

Wipe away your tears, brethren, and let us rejoice that this immense suffering has come upon this man of God. For therein are his prayers and penances given a multiplication of merit.

Almighty God will have the last laugh .“Rapenik” Gets a Parish, Strickland Gets Removed: the Francis Pontificate - OnePeterFive

Thus in line with the consistency of the pontificate of our Holy Father, the Dictator Pope, while this was happening last weekend for Tyler, a potentially worse scandal even than Rupnik is brewing, according to CatholicSat:

This is a massive story, and the potential to be a massive scandal for Pope Francis, far graver than Rupnik and Zanchetta combined. The faithful deserve answers in all three cases, no matter how disturbing the truth may be.

 A day before the Vatican crackdown on Tyler happened on Saturday, Ed Condon commented on the Príncipi case last Friday saying, “Frankly, I am running out of innocent explanations here.”

But let’s return to the peripheries and go back to that rural diocese of Tyler, Texas. The city of Tyler is quite small indeed, with only 105,995 souls according to the 2020 census. I myself had the great joy of hearing the then Bishop of Tyler speak last year at the CIC, shortly before he was sacked. I was amazed at the childlike courage of this man of God. I became quite convinced he was a worthy succesor of the Apostles.

Since his sacking, it seems he is trying to follow the path of Bishop Fulton J. Sheen in his later years: committing to preaching the Gospel.

In season. Or out of season.

 Thank God for this good bishop! He has not been excommunicated, like Archbishop Viganò.

2018 - and still the cardinals and bishops stay shtum

 

But what readers may not know, is that many faithful, traditional Catholics have moved to Tyler, Texas over the years to help build up Catholic culture as a part of the “great Catholic migration.” This included what The Pillar falsely maligns as “a controversial residential project”: the Veritatis Splendor Community.

 

(The community itself is Catholicism 101, build a Catholic City, like they did in St. Marys, Kansas, and literally what all our forefathers did for 2000+ years until the age of the automobile created the suburbs. So no, it’s not a “controversial residential project.”

 

What is controversial, Pillar, is that some of the Catholic leadership has been justly criticised – some individual Catholics are controversial, not their project. Two of the leaders of this community committed a public sin and were accused of financial misconduct, but the whole thing was from an anonymous tip, causing Simcha Fisher to ask “Who funded Kari Beckman’s fall from grace?”)

 

Nevertheless the community has endured, trying to do Catholicism 101, just as Bishop Strickland was trying to do Bishop 101, while the world’s bishops (with notable and happy exceptions) were struggling to be the best Vicar of the Roman Pontiff, contrary to Lumen Gentium  27. 

 

After Strickland’s sacking, the community’s (and the diocese’s) interest in the Latin Mass has no doubt been noticed, and now the latest news.     

 

The man appointed to head the diocese (the nearby bishop Vásquez) did not want to act like Bishop 101, but rather a “Vicar of the Roman Pontiff – again that thing that Lumen Gentium 27 condemns – so he asked the Vatican Regime what they wanted to do with the five Latin Mass centers. This allows him to appear like an obedient Catholic, and allows him to condemn anyone who disobeys him. But it also reveals him as a hireling, who does not care for the sheep but runs and hides when he sees the wolf.

 

 “What shall I do,” asked the Hireling, “with this tiny minority of faithful families on the peripheries?”

  “GIVE THEM THE AXE!” thundered the Wolf Regime in  Rome, who loves the margins and the peripheries, where the sheep can be scattered.

 

And so, like a good Vicar of the Roman Pontiff, the Most Reverend Joe. S. Vásquez mercilessly persecuted this tiny minority, by stripping them of all five Latin Masses in his diocese, contrary to what his own letter said: 

 

Vásquez has the gumption ...

 

Perhaps the writer means 'the gall' rather than 'the gumption' 

... to openly mock his persecuted flock by saying that

While this transition may be difficult for some, my hope is that you will open your hearts and move forward on this path with faith and trust. I pray you will experience a deepened unity with the holy Church and greater awareness of the liturgical richness of the ordinary form of the Roman liturgy.

 

Ahem, you’re still using the Ratzinger newspeak, Your Excellency. The new newspeak is “Only form of the Roman Rite.” The Latin Mass is no longer Roman, even though it uses the Roman tongue. Summorum Pontificum is down the memory hole.

 

If this is not open mockery from His Excellency, then it is unpastoral ignorance. Would he welcome a dialogue with his own flock to help inform him about what the Roman  Rite is? Seriously, why not say this to his face, with the proper Catholic reverence for a bishop?

 

But let’s compare this false and forced “deepened unity” with what Vatican II actually says about liturgical unity:

 

The Holy Catholic Church, which is the Mystical Body of Christ, is made up of the faithful who are organically united in the Holy Spirit by the same faith, the same sacraments and the same government and who, combining together into various groups which are held together by a hierarchy, form separate Churches or Rites. Between these there exists an admirable bond of union, such that the variety within the Church in no way harms its unity; rather it manifests it, for it is the mind of the Catholic Church that each individual Church or Rite should retain its traditions whole and entire and likewise that it should adapt its way of life to the different needs of time and place (emphasis added: Orientalium Ecclesiarum, 2).

But this truly Catholic statement has not been followed by Rome since the reform of the Roman Rite (excepting in all the work of Joseph Ratzinger, who alone seemed to take these words to heart).

The Tyler Traditionalists Must Stand Firm, and Invite more SSPX Priests!

 

We should thank God for the FSSP, who are suffering for playing the long game here. By God’s Providence, their priests will now shoulder the care of all these souls who will flock to their parish in Tyler – but how far now will these souls have to drive to be Roman Catholics who have access to the ancient Roman Rite?

 

There is one SSPX chapel in the Tyler diocese, in Clayton, one hour's drive southeast of the city of Tyler. With so many Latin Mass faithful now stripped of their rights to the Rite, more SSPX priests should be invited to care for souls.

But I cannot imagine the heartbreak that some of these families are enduring – having moved across this vast American Empire to find some solace for their children in Catholic culture in the Tyler diocese, and then the Vatican cuts off the head, and mercilessly persecutes the Latin Mass minority.

 

But brethren, consider one thing: our Chinese Catholic brethren. They have suffered under perhaps the most murderously anti-Catholic regime in history, and now they have seemingly been betrayed by the Vatican, and they have kept the Faith. Some risk imprisonment or worse to have the Sacraments.

 

Let us face every new suffering with the joy of faith: Jesus, having joy set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and now sitteth on the right hand of the throne of God  (Heb. xii. 2).

 

This is only way to pass down the Faith to our children in this time of desolation. This holy patience will endure all things. And most importantly, let us not harden our hearts against the Holy Father, nor those Hirelings who seek to be his Vicar, contrary to their consecration as bishop. 

 

Let us be good Christians and love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. Otherwise we are unworthy of the name of Christ.
