We must use the shield of Our Lady of Mount Carmel's Brown Scapular to defend us against all of the attacks of the devil in our lives, especially as we seek to protect ourselves from the contagions of conciliarism, including the insidious lie of false ecumenism.

The Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, which is commemorated today, Sunday, July 16, 2017, the Sixth Sunday after Pentecost, represents what tremendous love that Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has for us by sending us His Most Blessed Mother to give us a sacramental by which we are clothed in the garment of her Brown Scapular, which serves as a particular protection at the moment of death if we have been faithful to all of the conditions of our enrollment.

Our Lord has permitted His Most Blessed Mother to give us so many aids to get home to Heaven--the Rosary, the Brown Scapular, the Miraculous Medal, the Green Scapular, devotion to her Immaculate Heart as part of her Fatima Message.

We must wear our Brown Scapular of Mount Carmel constantly as we bear witness as best we can that we have been given a loving Mother in Heaven who intercedes for us to live in such a way in this passing, mortal vale of tears that we will always be ready to die and have her pleading for us nunc, et in hora mortis nostrae. Amen."

Let us continue to pray for each other and for Holy Mother Church in this time of apostasy and betrayal as we shield ourselves in Our Lady's garment of the Mount Scapular and pray with fervor and devotion her Most Holy Rosary every day. I beg your prayers also for our daughter on the occasion of the ninth anniversary of her Confirmation.

A blessed commemortated Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel to you all!

Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us.

Saint Simon Stock, pray for us.

I want to honor my own Confirmation patron saint, Saint Henry the Emperor, on his feast day once again.

Saint Henry the Emperor was a superb exemplar of the Social Reign of Christ the King who sought to foster peace among men by promoting the missionary work of Holy Mother Church in parts of central and eastern Europe near the end of the First Millennium. He knew that Catholicism was the one and only foundation of personal and social order, seeking at all times to honor Christ the King and Mary our Immaculate Queen.

May we plead with him this day and every day to help us to see the world more clearly through the eyes of the Catholic Faith as the consecrated slaves of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, He Who is the King of every man and every nation on the face of this earth without any exception whatsoever, through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

A rather thorough commentary is being prepared to comment on the recent attack by Antonio Spadoro and Miguel Figuerora on what they called the "ecumenism of hate" that has united many Catholic supporters of President Donald John Trump with evangelical and fundamentalist Protestants. Please understand that I am going to take whatever time I need to complete this commentary, but it will be very thorough.

Finally, please continue to pray for Charlie Gard, his parents and all who are seeking to save his life from a court-ordered execution of the sort that was abolished in the United Kingdom decades ago. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Henry the Emperor, pray for us.

Saint Cunegunda, pray for us.

Although I had hoped to have a new article ready for publication today, the work that went into esterday's commentary precluded its completion. 

Thus it is that I offer a revised reflection on the holy life and work of Saint John Gualbert that was written some years ago now and has not been offered again since 2014.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John Gualbert, pray for us.

Saints Nabor and Felix, pray for us.

A very long commentary on the Charlie Gard case.

Please continue to pray for Charlie Gard, his parents and all those who are trying assist them.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius I, pray for us.

Although work on my commentary about the Charlie Gard tragedy will be completed later today (or, more likely, by this time tomorrow morning), I did take time yesterday into the overnight hours early this morning to provide a brief commentary about President Donald John Trump’s address in Krasinski Square in Warsaw, Poland.

The President’s address is being hailed by many “conservatives.” Despite touching on undeniably important themes, however, the speech spoke about God and faith in generic terms. Not once was there any mention of the Holy Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ or to the Catholic Faith as the very foundation of Poland. (Please don’t waste your time writing to me to say that the president mentioned “Saint John Paul II.” I reiterate: The Holy Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ and the words Catholic Church are not to be found in the president’s address of three days ago.)

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Veronica Giuliani, pray for us.

Saint Thomas More, pray for us.

Saint John Fisher, pray for us.

The Martyrs of Gorkum, pray for us.

Saint Maria Goretti, pray for us.

[Midnight update on the Feast of Saints Cyril and Methodius: Although I started writing a commentary five days ago about the tragedy involving young Charlie Gard in England, events surrounding this innocent victim of the modern merchants of death-dealing Judeo-Masonic statism have been moving very rapidly. The Charlie Gard story demonstrates how the forces of Modernity in the world and Modernism in the counterfeit church of conciliarism exist in symbiotic relationship where the latter is always deferential to the former. There are many aspects to this tragedy that need to be explored in depth, but I will not have the time to do so until Saturday, although I will probably need Sunday as well to complete the commentary. 

[In the meantime, of course, please pray for Charlie Gard and for his parents, who do not appear to be married to each other and who labor under the misapprehensionn that "palliative care" could have been helpful for their son, as we pray in reparation for our own sins and those of the whole world that have helped to create a world where civil states and transnational bureaucracies are controlled by utterly godless, amoral monsters.

[Our Lady, Help of Christians, pray for us,

[Saints Cyril and Methodius, pray for us.]

This commentary will not discuss the lurid details of the news that broke yesterday concerning arrests made in the apartment of an importan ally of Jorge Mario Bergoglio in his mission to "accompany" unrpentant sinners who have no intention of reforming their lives. It is simply enough to note that the counterfeit church of conciliarism is pevesely false of its very nature.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Bergoglio met with an “ecumenical” delegation of Orthodox clergymen a week ago today. This is but a brief effort to explain that, no matter the apparent conflicts du jour within the conciliar structures, there is more that unites the conciliar revolutionaries with each other than divides them. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us. 

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Today is the magnificent feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary to her cousin, Saint Elizabeth, and her preborn Divine Son’s preborn Precursor, Saint John the Baptist. This date, July 2, marks the end of the period of Our Lady’s Visitation, which began on April 2, lasting until the day after the octave day of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist. Our Lady’s perfect Charity for her cousin and her Divine Son’s Precursor should prompt us to perform the Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy at all times, making sure as well to proclaim the Holy Name of Mary, she whom all generations are duty bound to call blessed, as the Mother of God who made possible our salvation by her perfect fiat to the will of God the Father at the Annunciation and who is the Queen of Heaven and on earth, the very Immaculate Conception who prays for us now and at the hour of our deaths.

The Fourth Sunday after Pentecost is commemorated at Holy Mass today.

I have completed the transcription work for my next article. Today will be spent completing my own text.

A blessed Feast of the Visitation of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary to you all.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Processus and Martinian, pray for us.

This is a revised reflection that is offered to the readers of this site today, the Feast of the Most Precious Blood Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The Most Precious Blood of Jesus is our laver of redemption, as our own sins, each and every single one of them, caused It to be shed during the events of Holy Thursday and Good Friday.

It was the thought of coming into contact with the horror of our sins, the very antithesis of His Sacred Divinity, that caused Our Lord to sweat droplets of His Most Precious Blood in His Agony in the Garden of Gethsemane.

It was our sins that caused the Most Precious Blood of Jesus to be shed so terribly during His cruel scourging at the Pillar.

It was our sins that caused the Most Precious Blood of Jesus to be shed as He was crowned with thorns to mock His Sacred Kingship over men and their nations.

It was our sins that caused the Most Precious Blood of Jesus to continue to be shed from the scourging and the crowning as He walked up the steps to be judged by the Roman procurator, Pontius Pilate. Droplets of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus are still venerated by pilgrims as proceed on their knees up the Sancta Scala in Rome right across from the Basilica di San Giovanni Laterano.

It was our sins that caused the Most Precious Blood to be shed as Our Lord’s hands and knees were crucified. It was our sins that caused the Most Precious Blood of Jesus to be shed unto Its last drop as He hung on the gibbet of the Holy Holy Cross for three hours, flowing in a torrent as Our Lord’s wounded side was pierced with the lance of Saint Longinus.

What is It that is poured out onto our souls when they are Absolved by a true priest in the Sacred Tribunal of Penance?

The Most Precious Blood of Jesus.

The Most Precious Blood of Jesus strengthens us when we receive It worthily in Holy Communion.

It was the shedding of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus on the wood of the Holy Cross that ratified the New and Eternal Covenant He inaugurated at the Last Supper, thereby obliterating forever the old sacrifices of the blood of bulls and goats and lambs in Temple worship, thus superseding he Old Covenant of the Jews.

We must celebrate this great Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus, which was pumped through Our Divine Redeemer’s Sacred Body by His Most Sacred Heart, the very font of Mercy, with gratitude that we, sinners who caused It to be shed in torrents under the most unspeakably cruel conditions, are bathed unto our redemption by Its merits.

May we never take the Most Precious Blood of Jesus for granted.

Transcription work for the next original article is ongoing. As I have explained in the past few weeks, the lapse of several days between articles does not mean a lapse in the efforts to produce them. It is simply taking me longer now than in the past. However, I should have the next commentary completed by tomorrow or, at the latest, Monday.

A blessed Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ to you all!
Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Saint John the Baptist, pray for us.

Today's republished article is a slightly revised version of a commentary published on July 3, 2016, at a time when the quite boring spectacle "will they or won't they" formally "reconcile" with the counterfeit church of conciliarism was in the news again. 

Oh, who are the "they"? 

Who else? 

The Society of Saint Pius X, whose leaders still continue on their march to oblivion by seeking to "reconcile" with a "pope" who is no pope at all but a figure of Antichrist and thus an enemy of the sanctification and salvation of souls and thus of all social order.

I will, though, have a new reflection on the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul for your consideration by Monday, July 3, 2017, at the latest.

For the moment, however, I will note that the forthcoming commentary will deal, at least in part, with the "homily" that the Argentine Apostate gave yesterday, Wednesday, June 28, 2017, the Feast of Saint Irenaeus within the Octave of the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Octave of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist, and the Vigil of the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, at the public consistory at which he elevated five Jacobin/Bolshevik concilia revolutionaries to the conciliar college of make-believe cardinals. Believe it or not, Bergoglio actually spoke the truth when he said the following:

He has not called you to become “princes” of the Church, to “sit at his right or at his left”.  He calls you to serve like him and with him. (Jorge Makes Puts More Jorges in the Antipapal Pipeine.)

This is true, 

Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ has not called the five new conciliar make-believe "cardinals" to be princes of the Catholic Church as they are not Catholic and have never been ordained to the Catholic priesthood and consecrated to the fullness thereof as bishops. They are not cardinals. He, Bergoglio, is not a pope.

A blessed Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul to you all.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Saint John the Baptist, pray for us.
