"THE MYSTICAL BODY OF CHRIST AND THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH ARE ONE AND THE SAME THING":PIUS XII

 

SPEECH BY ANACLETO GONZÁLEZ FLORES

"Many Catholics fail to grasp the gravity of the moment and, above all, the causes of the disaster; they are unaware of how the three great enemies—Protestantism, Freemasonry, and the Revolution—work tirelessly, driven by an alarming and well-organized program of action.

These three enemies are defeating Catholicism on every front, at every hour, and in every possible way. They wage battle in the streets, in public squares, in the press, in workshops, in factories, and in homes. It is a widespread conflict; they have drawn their swords and deployed their battalions everywhere. This is a fact. Christ does not reign in the public square, in schools, in parliament, in books, in universities, or in the public and social life of the Nation. It is the Devil who reigns there. In all those environments, one breathes the very breath of Satan.

And what do we do? We have contented ourselves with praying, going to church, and practicing a few acts of piety, as if that were enough 'to counter the immense conspiracy of God's enemies.' We have left everything else to them: the streets, the press, and the teaching posts at every level of education. In none of these places have they encountered serious opposition. And when we have acted, we have done so so poorly, so feebly, that it could be said we have not fought at all. We have sung in our churches, yet we have not sung to God in the schools, the public squares, or parliament, having sidelined Christ out of fear of the prevailing atmosphere.

To reduce Catholicism to secret prayer, to fearful complaint, to trembling and terror before public authorities—even as they kill the national soul and butcher the Nation in the open street—is not merely cowardice or excusable confusion; it is a historic, religious, public, and social crime that deserves utter execration.

....Souls are suffering from diminishment and anemia."  ...spiritual. We have become beggars, renouncing our role as masters of our own destinies. We have been driven out of everywhere, and we have abandoned everything.

Until now, most of us Catholics have done nothing but ask God to act, to work, to bring things about—to do something, or indeed everything, regarding the fate of the Church in our homeland. Consequently, we have limited ourselves to prayer, waiting for God to intervene. And all this under the guise of a supposed "prudence." We need the imprudence of Christian boldness.

Moreover, there are many Catholics who dare to label as imprudent anyone who asserts their rights in the face of their persecutors. This situation of isolation, estrangement, and national fragmentation must end once and for all. We must, without delay, seriously consider how we—the Catholics of our homeland—can cease being a mere heap of disconnected particles and instead become an immense body with a single program, a single head, a single mindset, and a single organizational banner to confront our persecutors.

BEWARE, EXERCISE GREAT CAUTION! ⚠️

"Everyone should avoid familiarity or friendship with anyone suspected of belonging to Freemasonry or groups affiliated with it. Know them by their fruits and avoid them. All familiarity must be shunned—not only with those godless libertines who openly promote the sect's character, but also with those who hide behind the mask of universal tolerance, respect for all religions, and a desire to reconcile the maxims of the Gospel with those of the revolution. Such men seek to reconcile Christ and Belial, the Church of God and the godless state."

POPE LEO XIII, Encyclical Custodi di quella Fede.

THE LAST JUDGMENT ACCORDING TO SACRED SCRIPTURE

The Last Judgment will take place after the resurrection of the dead. Jesus Christ Himself will judge all people: "When the Son of Man comes in His glory... all the nations will be gathered before Him" ​​(Mt 25:31-32). God will publicly reveal the truth about each person—their good and bad deeds, and even what remained hidden: "God will judge the secret actions of men" (Rom 2:16).

This will not be because God needs to learn anything—for He knows our hearts perfectly—but rather to manifest His justice before all. "We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ" (2 Cor 5:10). "Those who have done good will rise to life, and those who have done evil will rise to condemnation" (Jn 5:29).

Then Christ will definitively separate the righteous from the sinners (Mt 25:33) and pronounce the eternal sentence: "Come, you who are blessed by my Father" (Mt 25:34), or "Depart from me, you who are cursed" (Mt 25:41).

The Pope Said It

 

MEEKNESS, THE MARK OF THE TRUE CHRISTIAN

 

 Meekness, together with humility, is the distinctive mark of true Christians and deeply pious people. Our Lord Jesus Christ chose to present Himself to us as the model of these two virtues: "Learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart" (Mt 11:29). 

 Meekness is neither weakness nor cowardice. It is the virtue that keeps the soul serene and self-possessed, even amidst offenses, contradictions, and suffering. The true Christian knows how to defend the truth and fulfill his duty with firmness, yet without hatred, inner violence, or a desire for revenge. 

 The serenity characteristic of meekness accompanies Christians even in martyrdom. We see this admirably in Saint Stephen, who, while being stoned, prayed for his executioners: "Lord, do not hold this sin against them" (Acts 7:60). In this way, the disciple imitates his Master, who said from the Cross: "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing" (Lk 23:34). 

 Meekness, united with humility, causes the soul to become increasingly like Jesus Christ and enables it to remain at peace even during the greatest trials. That is why the Lord said: "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth" (Mt 5:5).

MILLIONS OF CORRUPTED CONSCIENCES

 And to God’s question, "Where is your brother?" we have replied: 

 "I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?" 

 Just as happened with Cain, God holds us responsible for the blood of our brothers—the little ones murdered in their mothers' wombs. Unlike other crimes, almost everyone participates in abortion: the mother and father who conceived the child, the grandparents who consented to it, the friends who recommended it, those who manufactured the surgical instruments, the doctors who performed the procedure, the politicians who pushed for the law, the judges who decriminalized it, those who promote it, the Catholic laypeople who support it, the priests who fail to denounce this crime, those who believe it is justified in certain circumstances, and those who remain silent. 

 That is why abortion is the most execrable crime of all: because it not only kills millions of human beings, but also corrupts millions of consciences. We are speaking of millions of souls lost every day. 

 Whatever God sends us, we richly deserve...
