Herewith is a brief reflection on the Feast of Pope Saint Leo the Great, which is suppressed this year because the feast falls on Easter Tuesday.

The readings for Matins contained the Divine Office for the Feast of Pope Saint Gregory the Great summarize the nature of the purity of the papacy as the absolute guarantor of doctrinal orthodoxy at all times:

When the Lord, as we read in the Evangelist, asked His disciples Who did men, amid their divers speculations, believe that He, the Son of Man, was; blessed Peter answered and said Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus answered and said unto him Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but My Father, Which is in heaven and I say also unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it; and I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. Thus therefore standeth the ordinance of the Truth, and blessed Peter, abiding still that firm rock which God hath made him, hath never lost that right to rule in the Church which God hath given unto him.

In the universal Church it is Peter that doth still say every day, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God, and every tongue which confesseth that Jesus is Lord is taught that confession by the teaching of Peter. This is the faith that overcometh the devil and looseth the bands of his prisoners. This is the faith which maketh men free of the world and bringeth them to heaven, and the gates of hell are impotent to prevail against it. With such ramparts of salvation hath God fortified this rock, that the contagion of heresy will never be able to infect it, nor idolatry and unbelief to overcome it. This teaching it is, my dearly beloved brethren, which maketh the keeping of this Feast to-day to be our reasonable service, even the teaching which maketh you to know and honour in myself, lowly though I be, that Peter who is still entrusted with the care of all other shepherds and of all the flocks to them committed, and whose authority I have, albeit unworthy to be his heir.

When, therefore, we address our exhortations to your godly ears, believe ye that ye are hearing him speak whose office we are discharging. Yea, it is with his love for you that we warn you, and we preach unto you no other thing than that which he taught, entreating you that ye would gird up the loins of your mind and lead pure and sober lives in the fear of God. My disciples dearly beloved, ye are to me, as the disciples of the Apostle Paul were to him, (Phil. iv. 1,) a crown and a joy, if your faith, which, in the first times of the Gospel, was spoken of throughout the whole world, Rom. i. 8, abide still lovely and holy. For, albeit it behoveth the whole Church which is spread throughout all the world, to be strong in righteousness, you it chiefly becometh above all other peoples to excel in worth and godliness, whose house is built upon the very crown of the Rock of the Apostle, and whom not only hath our Lord Jesus Christ, as He hath redeemed all men, but whom also His blessed Apostle Peter hath made the foremost object of his teaching. (Pope Saint Leo the Great, as found in Matins, The Divine Office, Feast of Pope Saint Leo the Great.)

Well, it is all there, isn’t it?

One must engage in all kinds of intellectual gymnastics to believe that the contagion of heresy is not rife within the counterfeit church of conciliarism, which is why all those who are not yet convinced of the truth of our ecclesiastical situation in this time of apostasy and betrayal should re-read these words:

This is the faith which maketh men free of the world and bringeth them to heaven, and the gates of hell are impotent to prevail against it. With such ramparts of salvation hath God fortified this rock, that the contagion of heresy will never be able to infect it, nor idolatry and unbelief to overcome it. (Pope Saint Leo the Great, as found in Matins, The Divine Office, Feast of Pope Saint Leo the Great.)

Jorge Mario Bergoglio has esteemed the symbols of idolaters. So have Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI and “Saint John Paul II” before his own election as the head of the false conciliar sect on March 13, 2013, and Bergoglio has shown repeatedly that he has no belief in the integrity of the Catholic Faith. So have his predecessors in the past sixty-four and one-half years.

As the Arizona State Supreme Court has upheld the constitutonality and enforceability of an 1864 statute banning surgical killing with the "exception" of the life of the mother and thus unleased a firestorm of criticism from such unlikely "allies" as Joseph Robinette Biden, Jr., and Donald John Trump, it is useful, I believe, to address this matter before continuing work on Jorge and Victor's Anthrpocentic View of Morality. It may not be possible to complete the article about the Arizona State Supreme Court decision this evening, but I hope to have it completed and posted by late afternoon on Thursday, April 11, 2024.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Leo the Great, pray for us.

Although I know full well that this website has a limited readership and has even less influence than that out there in the vast expanse called cyberspace, I am also aware that there are new readers now again who happen upon this site within the Providence of God. This is why I make an effort to reiterate points that may be familiar to long time readers as something that is “familiar” to them might be entirely “new” to someone who has never read these commentaries.

Thus, this commentary about former President Donald John Trump’s April 8, 2024, announcement reiterating his support for the evil that is in vitro fertilization and, in essence, washing his hands of baby-killing in the thoroughly delusional belief that “everyone” is “happy” with the law as it stands in the post-Hobbs world where the “people” can “decide” on a moral matter that is beyond their authority to do anything other than to obey the true God of Divine Revelation, Most Holy Trinity, and His Holy Commandments.

God is a majority of One, President Trump, and you will discover this at your Particular Judgment if you do not seek to remedy your shallow pronouncements and submit yourself in humility to the teaching authority and sanctifying offices of the one true Church, the Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation and without which there can be no true social order.

Next up will be a detailed examination of Victor Manuel Fernandez’s Dignitatis Infinita, and subsequent comments about the conciliar church’s efforts to “reform” its own teaching about the intrinsically disordered nature of perverse acts in violation of Holy Purity. I do not expect that such a commentary will be published before Saturday, April 13, 2024, the Feast of Saint Hermenegild.

Once again, non-tax-deductible financial gifts are urgently needed at this time.

Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

This is the fourth of a series that began six months ago about the endless conflicts that must take place in the Middle East until everyone there exclaims "Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini. Hosanna in Excelsis!"

A reflection on today's transferred Feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary can be found by scrolling below.

Finally, although the next commentary will be a scathing review of Donald John Trump's "final" statement about the chemical and surgical execution of the innocent preborn, the one after that, which may take a few days to complete, will be a thorough evaluation of Victor Manuel Fernandez's Dignitatis Infinita, March 25, 2024, which is a typical conciliarspeak piece based upon mostly naturalistic and corrupted "interpretations" of Catholic teaching. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Early April 9, 2024, update: Although I am working on my brief commentary about Pontius Trump's definitive surrender to the "will of the people," the hour, at 12:31 a.m., is too late to continue to working given the hour at which this commentary was posted twenty-three hours go. I will get back to work this afternoon and post it upon completion thank you. Also, there is a need to raise over $2000 for medical expenses. Non tax-deductible financial gifts are thus needed. Much obliged.

Today's article is a slightly revised reflection on the transferred feast we celebrate today, the feast which signifies the moment when the Second Person of the Most Blessed Trinity, the very Word through Whom all things were made, personally entered into human history as He was made Incarnate in the Virginal and Immaculate Womb of His Most Blessed Mother by the power of the Third Person of the Most Blessed Trinity, God the Holy Ghost, Who overshadowed Our Lady after she had given her perfect Fiat to the Will of the First Person of the Most Blessed Trinity, God the Father, as that Will was made known to her by Saint Gabriel the Archangel.

The whole of human history is changed today--and no one can remain neutral about what happened on this day. If the Second Person of the Most Blessed Trinity really did become Man this day in Our Lady's Virginal and Immaculate Womb so as to redeem us on the wood of the Holy Cross thirty-three years later, as we know is indeed the case, then every person and every nation on the face of this earth must acknowledge this fact and subordinate everything to the Deposit of Faith that He has entrusted exclusively to His Catholic Church for Its eternal safekeeping and infallible explication.

We must pray to Our Lady every day so that we will never lose sight of the centrality of the Incarnation in our own lives and in the lives of our nations, never lose sight of the fact that Holy Mass itself is Incarnational as the Word Who was made Incarnate in her Virginal and Immaculate Womb is made Incarnate on altars of sacrifice under the appearances of bread and wine by true bishops and true priests. Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ spent nine months in the tabernacle of Our Lady's Virginal and Immaculate Womb, thereby sanctifying the wombs of al mothers. He is in solidarity with every child in every mother's womb. Every abortion, whether by chemical or surgical means, is an indirect attack on the Incarnation that took place this very day.

A blessed Feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Virgin Mary to you all.'

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Today, April 5, 2024, is Easter Friday and the Commemoration of Saint Vincent Ferrer, O.P., who was never afraid to display the Holy Cross of the Divine Redeemer before anyone, including Jews and Mohammedans.

The next original article to appear on this site will be Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini, Hosanna in Excelsis, part five, and will deal with the ongoing genocide being committed by the Israeli Defense Force against the Palestinians. The killing is so unrestricted that even a vehicle delivering aid to the refugees made homeless by the shelling of Gaza City was itself the target of an Israeli attack.  The situation has been further escalated by an Israeli airstrike that destroyed the Iranian consulate in Damascus, Syria, and killed a top Iranian military commander in charge of the Mohammedan nation's forces there. 

Here is some good travel advice: Do not plan any trips to the Holy Land this year.

May God have mercy on us all.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Vincent Ferrer, O.P., pray for us.

This is a brief follow-up to the commentary published three days ago. Another original commentary will follow in a day or two.

Once again, this would be a most propitious time for those who are willing and have the financial wherewithal to do so to make a non-tax-deducible financial gift to help defray the costs of completely unexpected expenses, including of a medical and mechanical nature. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Isidore of Seville, pray for us.

A self-explanatory title, which is about all I have strength enough to write at a very late/early overnight hour.

Another original commentary will follow in day or two.

Alleluia! Chirst is Risen!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

I am providing you with Father Francis X. Weninger’s first sermon for Easter Monday as it is every timely despite its being written and delivered around one hundred thirty-five years ago.

This sermon, which the book publisher explains in a prefatory note was written in German, focused on the persecution of Holy Mother Church, and believing Catholics by the thirty-third degree Freemasonic Chancellor of the German Empire, Otto von Bismarck, during the Kulturkampf that began shortly after the end of the Franco-Prussian War in 1871. Father Weninger’s exhortation for courage in the midst of this persecution will provide Catholics today with great encouragement in the midst of the persecutions and acts of government repression that are employed here in the United States of America and elsewhere in the so-called “civilized” world during the plandemic.

Please take the time to read this truly inspirational sermon. You will not regret doing so.

An original commentary will be published within fifteen minutes of this posting.

Alleluia! Christ is Risen!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Herewith republished are three of Father Francis X. Weninger's sermons for Easter Sunday!

Alleluia! Christ is Risen!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

A postscript: Although I am not umindful of the blasphemous, sacrilegious event taking place at the White House today, this is Easter Sunday. A commentary on this unspeakably horrid matter will be posted tomorrow, Easter Monday, April 1, 2024.

Alleluia! He is Risen!

Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has made manifest His Easter Victory over sin and eternal death. “O death, where is Thy victory. O death, where is thy sting?”

We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise again incorruptible: and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption; and this mortal must put on immortality. And when this mortal hath put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written: Death is swallowed up in victory. O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?

Now the sting of death is sin: and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, who hath given us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast and unmoveable; always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. (1 Cor. 15: 51-58)

Our Lord made His Easter Victory over sin and eternal death manifest first to His Most Blessed Mother, who stood so valiantly at the foot of His Most Holy Cross as she cooperated completely in His Redemptive Act, bringing us forth as the spiritual sons and daughters of the living God in great pain by means of adoption. W need to rely on the help of Our Lady as the consecrated slaves of Her Divine Son through her own Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart so that we may persevere in a state of Sanctifying Grace with perfect contrition for our sins until the moments of our deaths so that our bodies and souls will be resurrected on the Last Day at the General Judgment of the Living and the Dead and counted among those destined for the enjoyment of an unending Easter Sunday of glory in Paradise.

Nothing else matters if we save our souls by cooperating with the graces won for us by the shedding of every single drop of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ's Most Precious Blood on the wood of the Holy Cross and that flow into our hearts and souls through the loving hands of Our Lady, she who is the Mediatrix of All Graces. Nothing else matters if we fail to soul our souls.

This glorious day of Easter rejoicing is meant to be but a foretaste of Heaven. Let us live as redeemed creatures as we reject the naturalism of Modernity and the Modernism of the soul-killing agents of the counterfeit church of conciliarism. This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad!

A blessed Easter Sunday to you all!

Alleluia! Christ is Risen!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.
