Catholic during the Great Apostasy

In the Book of Exodus, it is written that God listened to the complaints and lamentations of the Israelites, relented, and led them out of the house of bondage. Oppression was growing in Egypt; people turned to God, asked for rescue, and fulfilled the commandments given to them. Although someone may say that these, too, were only requests related to their own needs and therefore somehow based on thinking about themselves, after all, they were directed in the right direction—to the True God.

Knock, and it will be opened to you – as our Lord Jesus Christ says.

God heard the complaints of His chosen people – directed exactly to Him, not to Baal! Quite the opposite situation occurs when people pray to some idols. How great a crime this is in the eyes of God! Let it be testified that for the sins of the flesh, after all, so hated and causing disgust with God, only individual cities, like Sodom, were destroyed. Deviations that were violations of God’s first commandment, that is, praying to some pagan deities, always led to punishments falling on the entire nation. Besides, such “ecumenism,” or pagan belief in many gods, was itself the cause of moral decline and man’s plunge into the abominations of sinful desires. Departure from the Living God through worshiping varieties of Satan is the beginning, but also the end.

If a man thinks that, then he becomes the master of his fate. Unfortunately, as always, he is very wrong. This is the beginning of submission to the authority of Satan and the end of reliance on God. Do you see anywhere for human dominion here?

Man falls very low; he wallows in the mud and dirt of this world, but his pride rises high. He thinks he will reach heaven, and he falls like the tower of Babel. He thinks he is a god, and he is the devil’s footstool. What is the difference between kissing the Koran, participating in pagan rituals, and offering sacrifices to the golden calf?

Do you see any? At least you shouldn’t see one. If God, from the beginning of the world, has always punished for such behaviour, then why do you think it will be different now?

God is unchanging and always equally just. And merciful to those who want to return to Him.

Contrary to popular belief, man does not change either. Always prone to the same lusts and always prone to the same sins. Satan’s methods also remain the same. The idea is always to make you think that you are equal to God and, therefore, that you can do anything and are not limited by any moral or legal rules. After all, the laws that man has established can be changed. We see this today. Democracy is becoming a communist dictatorship.

God may, in his mercy, have mercy on people, but after all, they should apologise, humble themselves, and pray for forgiveness.

However, is this possible in this day and age?

At a time when blasphemers and deviants are called saints, isn’t support for a normal family called fascism? Furious physical attacks on, for example, opponents of abortion are treated as part of democracy, and reading or quoting the Bible can lead to imprisonment in countries of former Christian civilization and to death in others.

Anyone who says that godless authorities are to blame is wrong. They aren’t. Our Lord Jesus Christ said, Give what is imperial to the emperor and what is divine to  God.So the problem is that we give everything to the world, and nothing is left for God. So we support the system of evil morally. Only sometimes, if there is still a spark of true faith smouldering in us, do we reject something. But often it is not a firm “no”.

Everyone needs to look in the mirror of their soul and see the truth. Without this, God will not hear your cries because you direct them to someone else. To your own ego, or at worst to Satan lurking in the darkness of your souls. The image of God in your soul must be true.

Just because the state allows something, does not mean at all that it mandates it. And herein lies the fundamental difference. As long as the emperor did not mandate divine worship, Christians did not have to defy him. Even allowing abortion, which is an evil that allows the killing of innocent children, is not a commandment, and so a Catholic who even in his mind cannot allow such a crime should consider such a law dead and simply not use it.

Does the right to divorce change anything for a Catholic? No. It’s not an order to divorce just a right to it, and therefore identical to abortion it should be dead.

That’s why Jesus Christ says – give to the emperor what is emperor’s, and to God what is God’s. Few laws prescribe any action. Most are prohibitions or permissions, so for a Catholic they are not a threat.

It is known that it would be better to live in a state that respects divine law, but this is not the case, and we must adapt to it. However, under no circumstances can we go hand in hand with the world. This is the path of the modernist church leading straight to hell. The conclusion is simple – it is not the laws made by governments and people that is the biggest problem, but the acquiescence to them occurring among the people .

What is the problem, the fact that Poland has bad abortion laws, or the fact that only about 10% of the population is in favor of a total ban on abortion?

The same in the church structures. What is the real problem? Derogatory popes with their administration, or the fact that people overwhelmingly accept it?

The problem is that the faithful have left God for their sense of grandeur—for idols of stone and wood. If you think, for example, that the abolition of Freemasonry would change anything, then you are deeply mistaken. The world is so saturated with Masonic ideology that it would change nothing. People would immediately create ideologically similar organisations because they have rejected God and consider themselves gods.

We need to ask God for forgiveness, and perhaps in his mercy he will waive annihilation, but here the problem is similar to what I described above. Only about 10% see the apostasy at all and the punishments falling all the time since the Revelation of Mother God at Fatima. Of this remnant, however, not everyone wants to convert. Stuck in the blasphemous structures of the modernist church, they support the derogatory administration and wait for the apocalypse and the like. They really think that God will save them for their allegiance to the synagogue of Satan. An absurdity that is worse than the very paganism of the rest.

Let us pray to the One God to reverse our terrible fate,  giving ourselves completely to His will and rejecting the lies and hypocrisy of the world. There are few of us left, but the apostles were only twelve. With God, all things are possible, so let us only trust in our beloved Savior. The Mother of God extends her hand to everyone in whom she sees a spark of hope for conversion. The humble and meek Queen will lead us straight to her Son on the Cross and Resurrection.
