Thou Shall Not Make a False Peace

DVRodriguez2023-11-26T16:31:51-05:00

Why is the Synod discussing so many un-Catholic things? Why is the Latin Mass being suppressed? Why is Russia once again at war? We must seek the cause. And we shall find an all encompassing answer to these problems. Christ's truth requires that man first conquer in the interior life; then he can conquer on the outside. Yet modern man has sought new avenues according to his own wisdom. He seeks an easy way apart from the cross. He chooses compromise with the world to accomplish only an external peace. Yet false peace brings perpetual war. As we ignore Our Lady [...]

Great Pearl and Irrelevance of Novelty

DVRodriguez2023-11-20T08:46:34-05:00

False religions deny Christ and thus have the spirit of anitchrist. Modern Jews are defined by their rejection of Christ. Protestants identify themselves by their denial of the Church. This same pattern, of finding one's identity by denial or rejection, is found in the novus ordo liturgy. Many of its advocates harbor a virulent animus against Tradition, wishing to sentence the traditional liturgy to death. Revolutionaries long for the complete destruction of the old order, otherwise their revolution can't fully succeed. Traditional Catholics should not fall prey to identification by being against the new order for they have the most beautiful thing [...]

Silent Killers

DVRodriguez2023-11-14T06:14:12-05:00

The dramatic rise in our use of technology is severely handicapping us. Everything we consume is immediate, fleeting and has to entertain. God is not this way. Yet each day we expend much effort habituating ourselves to prompt gratification. We are looking for a God that is easily packaged. This makes it extremely difficult to be in a relationship with God. Even worse, technology induces us to look at obstacles as impossibilities instead of as an invitation from God to do something greater. No one of us is dealing with technology correctly. We see its terrible effect upon vocations. Limit your [...]

Decline of Public Authority

DVRodriguez2023-11-06T13:53:21-05:00

Obedience is a moral virtue that inclines the human will to comply with the will of another who has the right to command. We must obey the just commands of superiors because they represent the authority that comes from God. A grave error is to think men ("the people") are the source of public authority. Our nation is founded upon this false principle. When those in authority do not acknowledge the divine source of their authority, they abuse their power, becoming despotic. Subjects in turn mock rulers and only comply out of fear. The result is social dysfunction. Having cast Christ [...]

Tower of Faith and of Truth

DVRodriguez2023-10-24T14:05:57-04:00

There is a terrible crisis afflicting the Church. It revolves about unimaginable loss of faith. And the depth of the crisis is accelerating. Simply consider how Catholics today view Mass and Marriage. Or how Catholics are asking, "What if the Church changes this or that teaching?" Take time to examine your own deficiencies in the faith. Pray the Rosary well, for it is a tower of salvation against the assaults of the devil. Never abandon the holy Rosary!

Can Dogma Change?

DVRodriguez2023-10-24T14:12:25-04:00

Five cardinals sent dubias to the Vatican. Francis' answers increase doubt and raise greater concerns. Much is being said at the synodabout the theory of the 'development of doctrine.' Modernists are using this notion, first expounded by St. Vincent of Lerins, to undermine the Church. We must understand it correctly and not fall into their snares of deceit. Our understanding of a doctrine may deepen, but the meaning can never change to something contrary. Authentic development establishes identity with the past, not difference. It make us more, not less, Catholic. A reversal in doctrine is a clear sign of heresy. The [...]

Synod Follows Path of Devils not of Angels

DVRodriguez2023-10-10T07:31:04-04:00

October is a month dedicated to the Rosary and holy angels. The angels reflect God's glory as images of His perfections. Consider what St. Michael defends and promotes: the glory of God; the Church; the Blessed Virgin Mary; the Holy Eucharist; the Pope; and true doctrine and true worship. St. Michael fights against the enemies of God who seek to undermine, change and destroy the holy things of God. Lucifer attempted it before creation. Today, we see Francis and his synod undermining the Deposit of Faith (foundational truths revealed by God and necessary for our salvation). We are in the midst [...]

Is it Catholic to Support Illegal Immigration?

DVRodriguez2023-10-07T20:21:03-04:00

We are witnessing a Great Replacement via mass immigration. This is not a conspiracy theory merely a factual observation. A mass population influx can destabilize a country similar to a military invasion. Nations in Europe and North America are experiencing such tremendous ethnic and civilizational substitution that one wonders if traditional Western cultures will be lost. Mass migration is a new form of slavery, hurting the immigrant and inflicting terrible damage on his homeland. Thomas Aquinas and our Popes have provided sound teaching regarding immigration but few Catholics know it. It is part of the Natural Law that we love and [...]

Why Our Lady Weeps

DVRodriguez2023-10-13T09:32:04-04:00

The sorrows of the Mother of God give insight into every aspect of our faith. Her sorrows are not just something of the past but also of the present. She wept at LaSalette because God's holy law was being profaned. Consider how she must be weeping today as Francis and his synod seeks to undermine the Church and destroy the holiest things of God. This synod is the work of the devil. Now a bishop who defends the truth is persecuted by the Vatican. Pray to share in the sentiments of Our Lady's Immaculate Heart. Offer your Rosary as reparation in [...]

Resist the Cultural Genocide in Our Church

DVRodriguez2023-09-24T05:57:19-04:00

Ireland, the land of saints and scholars, suffered under Britain terrible persecution meant to destroy their culture. The main aim of the French Revolution was to de-Christianize the nation. Cultural genocide is the effort to eradicate a people by destroying their culture. The modernists did not want another Church, they wanted a different Church. Catholic tradition was destroyed not by an invading army but from within. Now, we must rediscover and reestablish tradition. Abhor innovation and have a holy stubbornness. Show you will not surrender Catholic Tradition (in liturgy, spirituality, morality, catechesis, etc.). We must be willing to fight for our [...]
