Time ran out on me as this article took far longer to complete than I would have liked, and it is considerably into the wee hours of the morning now on Saturday, April 18, 2015. Please pardon me for letting this article speak for itself as I take my leave for a few hours of rest before resuming work on part four later day.

Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Today, Thursday, April 16, 2015, an Easter ferial day on which there may be commemoration of Saint Benedict Joseph Labre, whose feast as such in particular places, finds part two of my current series ready for posting. This current segment is a most incomplete and perhaps even inadequate examination of the role played by officials of the counterfeit church of conciliarism, some of whom were continuing the apostate work of their Americanist predecessors in the Catholic Church, of “forming” the consciences of Catholics I public life to be follow the cowardly example of Pontius Pilate, who stood face-to-face with Truth Incarnate yet preferred to stand well with his fellow men.

As recovery still continues from the oral surgery on Tuesday, April 14, 2015, the Feast of Saint Justin Martyr and the Commemoration of Saints Tiburtius, Valerian, and Maximus, part three may not appear until Saturday, April 18, 2015, although an effort will be made to try to complete for posting by tomorrow morning.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Benedict Joseph Labre, pray for us.

This is part one of what will be a four part series.

This first segment deals with a punishment dealt out to a teacher at a conciliar school in New Jersey for having spoken the truth about the sin of Sodom on her “Facebook” page, which is yet further proof of the chilling effect that Jorge Mario Bergoglio’s warfare against truth and those who attempt to adhere to it as they best they can within the structures of his false church continues to have.

Although I have completed transcribing the pages from the late Archbishop Alban Goodier’s The Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ that will be used in this series, parts of the text that I transcribed will be included in each segment of this series of articles before the entire transcribed text is posted by itself for the reflection and consideration of readers.
Thank you for your patience, which must continue as part two is contingent upon how I weather the extraction of a tooth, which my dentist tells me has deep roots, on Tuesday, April 14, 2015, the Feast of Saint Justin Martyr and the Commemoration of Saints Tiburtius, Valerian and Maximus. Our Lady will send me the graces that I need, and the pain and discomfort to be experienced thereafter will be accepted with joy and gratitude as yet another opportunity to make a small bit of reparation for my many sins as the consecrated slave of her Divine Son, Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, through her own Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Hermenegild, pray for us.

There are three reasons why this commentary has been delayed.

First, last week was Holy Week.

Second, last week was Holy Week.

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!

Work proceeds on my next original article, which should appear by tomorrow, Easter Monday. Thank you for your patience. Holy Week simply took precedence, and my latest concussion (a car door this time that slammed into my forehead with a fair degree of force last week limits the amount of time that can be spent on the computer. Alas, there should be that new article by tomorrow morning.

Alleluia! Christ is Risen!

Silence filled the earth in the forty hours between the death of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ on the wood of the Holy Cross yesterday, Good Friday, and His glorious Resurrection at dawn on Easter Sunday. Silence filled the earth as the God-Man went down into Limbo to announce the news of His Redemptive Act to the souls of the just who had awaited His Coming and His Sacrifice in atonement for the sins of all men from the beginning until the end of time.

Given the state of the Church Militant on earth during this time of papal vacancy, some Catholics, including ourselves, will be anticipating Our Lord’s Resurrection this morning. Others will be doing so this evening, No matter when the Easter Vigil is offered, however, we spend the first hours of this day (from Midnight until the Easter Vigil) continuing our prayers of gratitude as we mourn the death of Our Divine Redeemer by means of our sins.

Christ the King is the Light of the World. It is His light that is symbolized by the Easter fire that is lit at the beginning of the Easter Vigil. The Light of Christ breaks through the darkness of sin and eternal death, leading us by the fire of His bright, burning love as we continue our desert journey of life to the Promised Land of the New and Eternal Canaan made possible by His immolation on the wood of the Holy Cross yesterday, Good Friday. We must follow the Light of Christ as He, the New Moses, leads us as the first Moses led the Hebrew people as he followed a column of cloud during the day and a column of fire during the night, as we reminded once again during the Prophecies that are read during the Easter Vigil.

The Light of Christ, Our Crucified and Resurrected Saviour, will penetrate the souls of those who are baptized today and of those who are confirmed. It will penetrate the souls of those of us who were unable to receive Him in Holy Communion yesterday at the Mass of the Presanctified. It will penetrate the souls of those who are regenerated once again in the Sacred Tribunal of Penance. The Light of Christ that is symbolized by the Paschal Candle is meant to permeate every aspect of our lives without any exception at any time for any reason.

The Light of Christ has indeed broken through the darkness of sin and eternal death. Our Lord is making manifest His Easter Victory over the power of sin and eternal death. A fifty day period of glorious celebration is about to break upon us. Although the Easter Vigil is a long ceremony, eternity is forever. We can certainly spend five hours basking in the glories of the Sacred Liturgy that are, after all, a foretaste of eternal glories, can we not? The rewards are truly Heavenly, rewards that we could not have unless the Co-Eternal and Co-Equal Son obeyed His Heavenly Father out of love for him and out of love for us so that we could have access to the treasures of His Most Sacred Heart here through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

It is frstill too early to use the forbidden “A——a/” word that we have not heard since Septuagesima Sunday. However, it is not too early to look forward to its use prior to the proclamation of the Gospel during the Easter Vigil Mass.

A blessed Holy Saturday to you.

For those unable to get to a true offering of Holy Mass today, here is a listing of the services that will take place at Saint Jude Shrine in Stafford, Texas, for tonight and tomorrow:
