Transcription of the above sermon, gratefully reprinted and adapted from the Cor Mariae forum:
Fr. Pfeiffer - October 2016:
... Some considerations today on some points that have been brought out by Bishop Williamson again and again, particularly the last couple of weeks once again visiting a couple of our parishes or places where I say the Mass - particularly last Monday he was in Oregon and in the same place where I have said the Mass not for some time....and then just before that St. Mary's in Kansas. It is in a different place but they took away about half of our parish in St. Mary's Kansas. I don't know what other places were visited, but about bringing up the issues of the new Mass and the miracles and the teaching of the Church and so on.
Up until less than two years ago we had no concern about these two matters. We know that the new Mass is evil and that Vat.II is evil ...we're having Mass here in a little meeting room; having Mass in homes and people's houses, and even our church that we've built in the last forty years are buildings we built from nothing, or old Protestant churches that were turned over to Catholic churches or old Catholic churches that were closed down because of the crisis of Vatican II.
So, our churches of the Latin Mass and tradition of the last fifty years exist because we recognised that the new conciliar church and the new Mass is not of God. And the new conciliar church and the new Mass they are leading souls to hell. The new conciliar church and the new Mass which is simply a liturgical expression of the new conciliar church; liturgical expression of the new theology of Vat.II that this new theology is not the theology of my father; not the theology of my grandfather; not the theology of my spiritual Father; the priests that formed me; not the theology of my principle father who was raised a Catholic or my grandfather all the way down the line until the first Catholic was made a Catholic in my family - and the same with your families.
Our faith is given to us by our ancestors. We stand upon the shoulders of our fathers. We teach the same doctrine they teach; we live the same faith they live; we live the same soul, the same doctrine, the same spirit, the same everything as our fathers and ancestors.
And what's happened?
Well fifty years ago there was a wandering away from God by the Church. Real bishops, real priests and the true pope. The real bishops, the real priests and the true pope wandered away from God. They took the churches with them. All the Catholic churches in Phoenix are no exception. All these churches built to honour God. Catholics who have been here for 500 years.
And what do they do?
They took away the faith of these Catholics that have been here for almost 500 years. And they have taken away their faith. They are not teaching them the same as the old missionaries that came here establishing the faith. And there are those who followed them - continued the same faith - they came, these real priests the descendants of real priests. The bishops were descendants of real bishops, the pope the descendant of the real popes -these descendant bishops, priests and pope of the fruit of the holy Roman Catholic Church taught another religion. Therefore we say NO! We must stay with the religion of our fathers. So therefore we were driven out of the churches and we had to build our own churches. We had to establish chapels inside of houses and so on everywhere in the world. And the vast majority went along with the Vat.II church. A small minority stood up against it. The great moral leader of that movement, Archbishop Lefebvre who was not special as a Bishop. He was simply following the great number of Bishops that have been Bishops down the last 2,000 years. He was not following the modern Bishops. He was simply saying and preaching the faith that was given to him by his ancestors but he was called a renegade. His seminary was called the seminary savage - a wild-cat insane seminary. He was eventually excommunicated - invalidly, and so on.
Then what happened 40 years later?
Forty years later in 2012 the Society of St. Pius X that he founded decided real priests, real bishops the four bishops of the Society these real, priests, bishops and real faithful of the Catholic Church, being faithful to the Catholic Church of two thousand years decided to wander away in their teaching. And they decided to say that we must be part of the conciliar church; we must be approved by the conciliar church. They started to say that the new mass is legitimately promulgated and it is truly of God. They started to say that the Vat.II although it has imperfections in it - and although we don't agree with every element of it it's 95% perfect and 5% taken out of context.
Therefore the council is not an evil council - it's a dangerous council. So some still criticised it, but they criticised it secondarily, not essentially and the faith has slid away from the mainstream SSPX and they are dragging souls into modernist Rome. Bishop Fellay had an interview a few months ago to the Catholic Register of the US which is a principle paper of the US, and one of the points he made to interviewer - he said to them 'Well the people must understand this new reality of the church in which we are. It is hard to get the faithful to understand this new reality and so we have to be patient and slowly educate the people about this new reality.
What is the new reality?
We've got to accept modernism. So the resistance stands up in 2012 and fights against the modernism. Notice that all we are is the continuation of 2,000 years of history. We are not a new movement. We are not a new doctrine. We are not a new spirit. We are not a new anything. In fact, we reject all that is new called by the Sacred Scripture and called by our church - 'novelties'. When you hear the word 'novelty' that's the same as hearing the word 'devil'. It is the same as hearing the word 'sin'. It is the same as hearing the word 'lie'. It is the same as hearing the word 'evil'. So when you hear the word 'novelty' - sin, lie, evil - reject it! We reject novelties! Novelty has entered into the whole mainstream church since 1965. Novelty has entered the SSPX and theology in 2012. And now the practice is coming ...just a few weeks ago in Australia the Society priest decided to read the epistle in English. When saying the Mass, instead of saying it in Latin, he turns around and reads it in English. And reads the Gospel in English which is a modernist practice that has been going on in France for more than twenty years. And now it's spreading. And many other things like that. There is a slow spreading of modernism throughout the whole Society. And so what do we do? We stand up against it as our ancestors did.
Now four years into the resistance what are we hearing? We're hearing Bishop Williamson, the leader of it, and other priests following him who refuse to fight against him, some of them - are saying, 'Well, there's grace on the new Mass'. He just gave a talk in Kansas, near St. Mary's just a few weeks ago on September 20th - another one just last Monday in Oregon and speaking about the grace that comes from the new Mass. And (giving) long talks about it. That the new church still has good in it. That the new church is still good. That grace still flows from the new mass. The proof is the miracles.
One of our faithful asked a question last Monday - who went to the talk afterwards, but not the Mass - thirteen people were at the Mass. She asked, 'Your Excellency, would you consider retracting your statements about the false benefits of the new mass and the false miracles?' He slammed his fist against the table and said 'NO"! I will not! And then a discussion followed on these things. That there are benefits from the new mass. The new mass has true in it and the new mass has false in it. The new mass has good in it, and the new mass has bad in it. But the good and the true benefits the soul. This is the teaching which is condemned by our Holy Mother the Church . It is the foundation of the heresy of ecumenism. And remember that modern ecumenists say that Buddha is good because he's Buddha and he's good for belly button diseases and the other gods are good for all kinds of things. That they are good in themselves. That's the modern ecumenist. But the first ecumenist did not say that. The first ecumenist said, 'we're only be ecumenical to Protestants. We're not being ecumenical to pagans only to Protestants.
Why is that?
Because the Protestants believe that Jesus is God and that's good. And it's true. They don't believe in the Blessed Virgin Mary and that's bad and that's false. But they believe that Jesus is God and that's true. They don't believe in the hierarchy of the Church, they don't believe in the Sacraments but they do believe that Christ gives grace and you have to go to Christ to get to heaven. So! the Protestants can be saved in what is good in their Protestantism. What is bad is horrible to Protestants. What is good is good to Protestants.
So the fact that Jesus is God, that's good. And the fact that Mary is not the Mother of God well that's bad. But this can be overlooked because they say Jesus is God. 'Look at all the people already that don't think Jesus is God. We have the unity that we standing together and saying that Jesus is God'. Now take that theology fifty years forward. And now what do we say? Donald Trump, holy Trump the trump card. Donald Trump is against something bad. What is it? I don't know but .... a bad economy. We know that. And we're in favour of a good economy so we can stand in union with Donald Trump because Hillary is worse. Tomorrow night she is supposed to be giving a talk. They are going to have a ninety minute debate and the scuttlebutt is that if she can't stand in the debate, if she survives the debate she may continue as a Democrat running evil person in charge. And if she doesn't make it through the debate then the other .... in the crowd will make her step down and put another Satan in her place. Or representative of Satan. Meanwhile the representative of Satan is running against the representative of Beelzebub. And the two are arguing.
And what are they arguing about?
How to make our people more comfortable in money. And so what happens? The Catholic says 'Well.... we have in common with the Protestants that we believe in Jesus so let's not pay attention to our theological differences, and it is recognised that a Protestant can do a lot of good because they believe that Jesus Christ is God. So let's unite with him insofar as he's telling the truth and let's be silent about our differences.
And what happens?
We lose our faith. So now we've lost that faith, so what's the next level? Well, those who believe Jesus is God, and those who believe Allah is God and all those who believe in a Jewish God all believe in only one God. At least we're not like the Hindus who believe in many Gods! So let's be united so long as we say we believe in God. And so they begin to put God, God, God - God bless America. Whichever God you believe in because there's only one God. But now we realise that there are people out there that are promoting homosexuality, and there's people out there that are promoting evils of abortion, but the Hindus are not in favour of abortion. And the Hindus don't like immorality and the Hindus are very modernist. So, let's just say those who believe in a Higher Power or Higher Powers - this we have in common because we all believe in Higher Powers. Now we come to the level - I even know homosexuals who are against homosexual marriage. So let's say that even if you’re going to be a homosexual at least be against homosexual marriage because we all agree that marriage is union between a guy and a girl because they love each other or something like that.
Marriage is a union between a man and a woman because of babies - that's what it is. So they don't even know what marriage is. You see how it goes down and never stops? Once you've given up the truth you can't stop giving it up. You may want to stop with ecumenism only with Protestants; you may want to stop with ecumenism between religious people because religious people are people of faith. You may want to stop with ecumenism only with good atheists - but it can't stop. Once you have given up Christ as God - as the truth it never stops. And this is the problem. It's a very grave error when Bishop Williamson says that what is true in the new Mass does good what is evil in the new Mass is dangerous. He doesn't say it does bad - it's dangerous. Many things that are good are dangerous. All Catholics know that beer is good and whisky is good and wine is good, but if you like a drink too much it's dangerous...give me thirty bottles and see what happens. How are you going to be standing upright. The wine is still good. But drinking too much - dangerous! Is wine evil? No, it's not, but dangerous for an alcoholic. And when we say people like alcoholics and the new Mass is like beer - dangerous, well that means it's not evil - it's only dangerous. So therefore be careful. Take it in small doses and you're going to be OK.
So he says there's truth in the new Mass. .And there's dangerous things in the new Mass. I am not saying the new Mass is good, but I am not saying it's all that bad either. So it is both good AND it is bad. So when you tell me your thing is good, no I say it's bad. You're saying it's bad, no, it's good. And they are both true because it's half good and its half bad. You speak to me on the left side, I jump to the right. You speak to me on the right side I'll jump to the left. It's call, 'dancing round the word' 'ambiguity' 'equivocation' - not acceptable for the man of God. But what's happening is it's leading souls astray. And then in the discussion about this new Mass what does he say? 'We must follow the e-vi-dence'. Mocking one of my parishioners last week. 'We must follow the e-vi-dence'.
E V I D E N C E - evidence. I don't have a conclusion or offer a conclusion and then say the evidence doesn't matter - I go from the premises to the conclusion says the Bishop and not the conclusion first, I don't make an a priori judgement. A priori means one up front. But, in fact as Catholics we do make an a priori judgement. We know that our faith is a priori - first and foremost - the infinite, infallible, immutable truth and can never be changed. And no other so-called truth can overcome it. And even if I don't know the argument - even if I don't know all these angles - I know what St. Jerome says, if a.....in Sacred Scripture comes to me says, St. Jerome, 1,600 years ago and he shows to me by good arguments and good proofs how God was wrong, how the Sacred Scripture was wrong and how the teaching of Christ and His Church was wrong I will nevertheless believe the teaching of Christ because I know it to be true. I will nevertheless believe in scripture because I know it to be true. And I won't accept his arguments. And what do we discover in due time? He's wrong! The enemy of God is wrong.
In 1859 the enemies of God came to the Catholic Church and they said all scientists in the world have proven beyond the shadow of a doubt without any possibility of doubt that the earth must be millions and millions and millions of years old. Now they discover it's billions of years old. Back then it was only millions. So millions of years old and therefore everyone knows it's that way, and scripture says it's 6,000 years old - the bible is wrong - and the Catholic says, 'Well, you've proven that the Church is millions of years old, we have to adjust our thinking.
Maybe the word 'day' doesn't mean 'day' - Doris Day or something like that. So, we didn't know what the word 'day' means so now we have re-analyse the word 'day'. We don't know what it means, and the Church backed down because they were afraid the scientists were right, and the scientists were liars, and sons of the father of lies. And so what was discovered in the twentieth century? By looking at the rivers that are in this world none of them are over 4,000 years old. Not one river on this planet is over 4,000 years old. All of them date back to the ..... No tree is older than that; there is not enough dust, in fact the proof is irrefutable that the earth cannot be more than 10,000 years old. Somewhere between 4,000 and 10,000 years - it cannot be more than ten and cannot be less than four - that is the scientific evidence. But they didn't now that in l859 but they new what God said. And they said we change the word of God to match the E V I D E N C E! Evidence changes. Go to a courtroom sometime. Evidence is quite manipulative. One politician told me he said, 'It's true, that figures never lie. But liars often figure'. You can always manoeuvre the truth to make it say what you want it to say, and men have been doing this for thousands of years.
So what do we mean by evidence?
There are things I can know without checking through all the details. There are things I can know without having to be an academic. I know that Jesus Christ is God and I know that he rules from the ...., but it tells in the history channel that he didn't. These are intelligent men who have studied profoundly. No they have not. They are liars, they are sons of the father of lies who will burn profoundly. But I don't need to believe their garbage. I already know that it's false. There are things I CAN know a priori because I can know what my Church taught. And what did the Church teach? St. Thomas Aquinas tells us miracles are called wonders. These are wonders which defy natural explanation and the true wonder is one which is done only by God. Some wonders we just don't understand but its a higher intelligence like man can do something that an animal can't do. For an angel to do something that a man can't do. These are not miracles they are the function of a higher intelligence. But there are some things that only God can do and only God does! He interferes with nature, He interrupts the laws of nature for a brief time in order to perform a miracle. Only God can perform miracles. No-one else can perform miracles. All miracles are from God - that is the teaching of our Catholic faith, and it's just common sense. Now God cannot perform a miracle for an evil purpose. God can only perform miracles for a good purpose.
What is that purpose?
He, Himself says in Sacred Scripture, and it is the teaching of our Church that the purpose of miracles is to confirm the faith; to strengthen the faith, and one of our arguments against the Protestants, the Hindus, Muslims - against all other false religions that we are the only religion with true miracles.
A guy was telling me the other day about a miracle that happened in his Hindu village. He said a rock came down and it fell through the village and it didn't kill anyone. So they called it a miracle rock. That's not a miracle. That's just a rock that missed the houses. But we have real miracles - such as Jesus Christ rising from the dead. Such as the saints raising people from the dead. Such as Padre Pio giving a girl who had no eyes - all she had was two white blobs in her eyes. She blessed him and she could see until she died. But he didn't bother to give her her eyes because it would take too much time. So she could see without eyes. And she saw without eyes until she died a few years ago. These are miracles.
Now, what about these modern miracles? The argument is there are miracles in the new Mass. These miracles prove that the new Mass is not altogether bad - so says the Bishop. And then they have the miracles. Three miracles. One approved by the SSPX 'cos remember the SSPX got on the miracle bandwagon just a few months ago with the miracle the SSPX put out in an article that is still available on SSPX.org. The article says that miracle of ....in Poland 2014 is a Eucharistic miracle. Bishop Williamson mentions a miracle in.....in Poland 2008. He also wrote about a miracle in Buenos Aires in 1997. We have a 1997 miracle, a 2008 miracle and a 2014 miracle miraculous hosts. The position about these three miracles - the one written by the SSPX in Poland....they all say exactly the same thing.
1. There was a Host dropped on the floor because of Communion in the hand or because the priest dropped the Host. 2. The Host is put into a glass of water so that it would dissolve and then be poured into the ground several days later after it had dissolved. 3. It was placed in a cabinet in the Sacristy, not in the Tabernacle.
After a few days a sister opened up the cabinet and it was red on the Host. They then took it to an analyst different people analysed it and said it is the muscle of a human heart, all three the same. The muscle of the human heart that had undergone trauma - therefore it is a Eucharistic miracle.
The Bishop of Buenos Aires approved that miracle - the other two bishops approved those other two Eucharistic miracles. There are pilgrimages going on in each of these three places and their are souls who visit there to see the Eucharistic miracle. Then the SSSPX and Bishop Williamson say the same thing. One of the signs that there is a miracle is that the Bishop approved. Think about that for a moment as a traditional Catholic. The Bishop approves of dancing girls. The Bishop approves the new Mass. The Bishop approves of ecumenical services. The Bishop approves of gay Masses throughout the world. Not every Bishop but many bishops. The Bishop approves of clown Masses. The Bishop approves of many things which we all have a problem with because they are against the law of God. So now we say that the Bishop has approved all these things against the law of God. When he approves it IS something so it must be right. Bad argument. He who approves of evil evil evil evil is not good judge of what is good good good and good. That's a problem. And so it is not a very good argument - that the bishop approves. Also the same Bishop like Bergoglio - a bishop who is well known today because he has become Pope Francis - he himself says he doesn't believe in a Catholic God. He himself doubts the resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ. He doesn't know that he does not believe in the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. And each day you could tune in to hear his latest heresy of the week.
And he has many many heresies that he says all the time. He denies the teaching of the Catholic faith continuously. He approved of the miracle. That this is a genuine miracle. And why does he approve of such a miracle? Because it's a miracle that proves the goodness of the new Mass and the goodness of the new church. What do these miracles do? They lead souls away from the true Mass into the false Mass. Leads souls away from the true Church into the false Church.
What are the results of these miracles?
St. Thomas says, 'Only God can perform a miracle and a miracle is only done to confirm the true faith, and miracles are only found in the true Church' and even the examples of the past where Balaam was a false prophet and others that have performed miracles or been involved in miracles and prophecy - each of these miracles and prophecies confirmed the Holy, Roman Catholic Faith. That's what they do. They never confirm another faith. They confirm the true faith.
Fr. Chazal said in a sermon back in an April report, he said that the miraculous apparitions of Akita - these are also from God and that the sister in Akita was given the stigmata in her hands and clearly she was given the stigmata so that she wouldn't receive Communion in the hand.
Well, you know what?
There's a famous stigmatist that we all know - Padre Pio - we've seen pictures of him. He has a wrap around his hand and blood all over his hand. Now if the stigmata of the hand means you shouldn't touch the host with your hand what does that mean? Padre Pio should not, should not touch the host when he celebrates Mass. He should use his toes or his teeth or something else. But he should not touch the host with his hands. He had the stigmata for fifty years. When he received the stigmata he was already a priest. He said the Mass every day for those fifty years and every day he touched the host with his hands because he's a priest of God. He elevated the host with his hands. And therefore, to argue that a stigmata in the hand signifies that you shouldn't receive Communion in the hand is absolutely absurd. Why are they reaching? reaching to justify the unjustifiable. And souls are discussing it and discussing it. Does grace flow from the new Mass? No it does not. And the argument given is that grace must flow from the new Mass because of the valid Presence of Christ. If Christ is present then there must be grace. No, that's not true. That is not the teaching of the church, and if it were then you can go to the local Orthodox Mass there is an Orthodox Mass here in Phoenix somewhere. You could go to Protestant Churches, such as the High Anglican Church Masses because High Church Anglicans believe in the Real Presence and even got themselves re-ordained. I remember meeting many Anglican Priests - my name is Father Andrew Anglican priest - I was re-ordained.
Why did they tell me that?
Because Pope Leo XIII wrote an encyclical . ........ in which he said the Anglican priests are invalid. And guess what?
Many of them new he was right and guess what they did? They got orthodox and bad Catholic Bishops to re-ordain them. So now they have valid priests. So why don't you check in to the local Anglican High Church of England...we have one of those churches in Denver where the priests are not allowed to say the Anglican Mass unless they were re-ordained. So they are valid Masses. Book of Common Prayer said in English....this is my Body, this is my Blood. Christ is really present. So why not go sing the Gregorian chant...they do it a lot better than we do. So why not go to the Anglican church to get Mass to get grace. If the Mass that's valid gives grace then we don't need the Catholic Church. But we need the Catholic Church. It is not enough to be valid. Valid simply means that Christ is made present. They say because Christ is present He gives grace. And what's the proof? The proof is the Council of Trent.
This is absurd!
But from the Council of Trent they say, 'If anyone denies the Sacraments of the new law give grace let him be anathema. So Mr. Johnson said this a while ago that Father Pfeiffer must be a heretic because he says that the valid Masses don't give grace. The Council of Trent clearly teaches that valid Masses give grace. That's not what the council of Trent teaches. Grace passes through the sacraments...what does that mean? It's against the Protestant heresy which is that Sacraments don't give grace; the sacraments are not vehicles of grace. Grace only comes to me firstly because of my act of faith. And the sacraments are just symbolic nice little ceremonies. Customs. And of course if they are just customs then why do them?
That's why ninety percent of Protestants dumped them. Why have these ceremonies if they don't give grace they're just customs. So, of course Protestants in the beginning all had Mass but they have now, ninety percent of them, dumped the Mass and they only have little discussions and singing services. Because why have it if it doesn't give grace?
Grace truly flows through the Mass. Grace truly flows through Baptism and all the seven Sacraments .But the grace can be blocked! And this is called an obex. This is basic sacramental theology. It's not complicated sacramental theology, it's basic sacramental theology. An obex or a block that prevents grace from getting into a soul. So imagine the Sacraments and grace are like a big water tank. If the water tank has no hole, has no valve, has no way for the water to exit then no water comes to you. You don't get any water. So likewise, the Sacraments truly hold grace. But in order for you to you to receive the grace it has to flow through the channels and you would have to have not only a valid receiver of the Sacrament you have to have a licit receiver of the Sacrament. What does St. Paul say, it's in the Holy Scripture : To receive Holy Communion unworthily is to eat and drink unto destruction. Its a valid Holy Communion, it's validly received and you receive it as a sacrilege and you get a deeper place in hell. It is not enough that Christ be present. More is required - the state of grace. But before that Faith and Unity with the Church! When we say this Mass we say it one with the Holy Father the Pope Francis. This Mass is not said alone. Even if I say Mass in the airport. I often say Mass in the airport or hotels or wherever. Wherever the Mass is said it is in union with our holy Mother the Church and if it's not in union THERE IS NO GRACE!
So what does St. Thomas say?
- 'and since the consecration of the Eucharist is a power which follows the power of Order such persons that are separated from the Church by heresy, by schism or by excommunication they can indeed consecrate the Eucharist which, on being consecrated by them, contains Christ's true Body and Blood.'
Christ is truly present - so they're valid. But they act wrongly and they sin by doing so. And in consequence they do not receive the fruit of the sacrifice which is a spiritual sacrifice. They don't receive the fruit. They don't receive grace. And again: 'not having lost the power of Holy Order, he consecrates Christ's true Body and Blood, but because he is severed from the unity of the Church his prayers have no efficacy.
When the heretic, when the modernist says the Mass it doesn't have efficacy. And the efficacy can become null because of the individual blockage of the priest himself or because of the blockage of the rite. If the rite is blocked from the Church grace cannot flow. The new Mass is evil. Grace cannot flow from it. [....] they validly sacrifice in the name of Christ but they do not offer sacrifice as ministers of the Church and hence no good. Leo Thirteenth 1983 quotes St. Augustine they are nonetheless valid and they serve in some measure that form and the periods of piety that St. Paul mentions 1 Cor. 13 :3 and which St. Augustine speaks of at greater length 'the form of the bread says, the latter with great precision may still be visible even apart from the vine but the invisible life of the root can be preserved only in union with the stock. That is why the corporal sacraments which some keep and use outside the unity of Christ can preserve the appearance of piety, but the invisible and spiritual virtue of true piety cannot abide there any more than feelings remain in an amputated member.'
So there is no grace - he uses the word 'grace' there at the beginning '..from this it follows also that they cannot promise themselves any of the graces and the fruits of the perpetual sacrifice of the sacraments which although they are sacrilegiously administered are nonetheless valid'.
There's no grace says Leo Thirteenth. We must be united to the Church in order to receive grace. And if we have a sacrilegious rite it doesn't give grace.
Now does God give grace to these souls?
Bishop Williamson said in his talk the other day - [........] 'and God is going to bend them all, and God is going to save the resistance Catholics and God wants to save the SSPX Catholics and God wants to save the Novus Ordo Catholics. He has so many more to take care of than just us'.
What does Christ say?
Will there be any faith left when I return?
We're not resistance Catholics, we're just Catholics. Catholics who believe as our Fathers and ancestors who hold the true faith. We don't play games with that faith. And we cannot play games with that faith. We must hold this true faith whole and undefiled against all the errors and heresies of the modern world whole and undefiled.
What about the others?
God gives grace to every human being in order to be saved. He gives actual grace to every soul including someone who has committed a murder; including someone who is involved in Satanism; including someone who is doing the most vile acts. God gives them the grace to repent. He gives them the grace to stop. He gives them the grace to make a perfect act of charity and save their souls and go to heaven. But does the grace come from murder? No it doesn't. One example is the famous video of the Silent Scream about abortion. There are many women who have seen that video where a baby is being murdered inside the womb and those women decided not to have an abortion. They received the grace to repent from the abortion they had in the past. Does that mean grace flows from that doctor who murdered that baby? And grace flows from that Mother who had her baby murdered in order to have a more convenient life? Are we grateful to the good part of the crushing of the head? Are we grateful to the murderer - the doctor? Are we grateful to the evil that's been done? And did good come from the evil? St. Thomas Aquinas says this is a perversion. No good comes directly from evil. It comes in spite of the evil. The murderer did not give grace. And the new Mass is the murderer of souls. The new Mass is the murderer of the faith.
IT DOES NOT GIVE GRACE!
And we have one billion examples around us in the Church today. Souls wandering away from God. Empty! Filling Hell. Grace must flow.
Bishop Williamson said 'some have said that the new Mass is being strangled but not condemned the grace is less than it was before'
We used to condemn that. This is the teaching of Fraternity of St. Peter; it's the teaching of the indult communities that grace is less in the new Mass more in the old Mass which means that the old Mass is better and the new Mass is OK. You have just said theologically - the new Mass is OK. Now that means you no longer have a reason to not go to it. Now if you have an emotional hang-up that you won't go to it then let's be patient and given time you will lose those emotional hang-ups and you'll be able to go to it. Once you accept it, it's accepted. If the new Mass gives grace which it does not; if the new Mass only strangles a little bit so that the grace is not as much as it used to be, then if you've got a choice between the old Mass and the new Mass of course you would go to the old Mass. But if you don't have an old Mass then go to the New!
St. John the alms giver, said in the seven hundreds 'You never receive Communion from the hand of a heretic even if he says only the true Mass'. In his days there was no new Mass, there was only a true Mass. And he said you do not receive Communion from the hands of heretics. And somehow this is spreading and spreading amongst some of our people.
This is a grave error. It must be condemned.
We must hold the teaching of our ancestors and also, if we have charity what does that mean? It means we love our neighbour and want to help him stop taking the poison. We want to help him out of the pit. The new Mass is a pit! The new modern Church is a pit! And now the SSPX is trying to dive headlong into it. And now many parts of the resistance, following this new teaching, are saying, 'Well the new Mass is not essentially evil any more. It's not as bad as some people say they are. And the proof of these miracles which are not miracles.
Going briefly back to the evidence...
Three miracles identical to each other. Why is that? Each of them not witnessed. Each of them inside a cabinet. Plenty of opportunity for someone to come in and put human flesh there - real human flesh can be put there and it can be protected. It is easy for these to be in cahoots. Remember the Texan in Texas there was the dry wall scandal a few years ago. When there were more than thirty or forty men thrown into prison for possession of cocaine. What they possessed was sheet-rock dust. The police took sheet-rock and drywall and grounded it into powder. It looks just like cocaine. They put it in bags. They put it in the back of the car. They arrested the guy - took it to a lab and the lab confirmed that it was genuine cocaine. High grade. Taste drywall sometime - you won't get high, you might get sick but you won't get high. No-one can mix it up. The judge was involved; the labs were involved; not just one lab.; the police were involved. There was a whole corrupt ring, and why did they do it? Because the Sheriff wanted to say 'I have more arrests this year than anybody else.' I know at least thirty were convicted for possession of drywall. That is what they were convicted for, but it said 'this is cocaine that they possess'. They were thrown in prison. They released them at the end and said to the cops,'That wasn't nice, you shouldn't do that'. That was the punishment.
They should be locked up in prison for as long as the longest sentence and not be allowed any parole. But they didn't do that. We are in an age we have systems of corruption. Now why the corruption? There's a reason for it. People are leaving the novus ordo church and they are losing something called money. They are losing support. So we need to create miracles - we've got to justify this new church. So they justify it by creating false miracles. This one worked in Buenos Aires after three attempts. Third miracle in the same church - the first two miracles didn't work out, but the third they finally got right. Now they've got the third miracle that matches the same miracle in Poland. So get ready for another miracle for a church near you. It smells a rat.
And what is its result?
Souls going to new Mass; souls continue to receive Communion in the hand; souls accepting the conciliar church; souls not really returning to God. But if you want to know about miracles look at the charismatic movement - so many miracles the charismatic movement. They claimed thousands of miracles. And people came to church and they filled the churches in droves. And they became more religious. But what happened in a couple of years they formed their own religion. They denied the Blessed Virgin Mary. The end up going away and building their own churches. They wander away from the faith. It's a temporary conversion.
Let's wait and see how long term these conversions are.
Let us persevere in the truth and not accept these false miracles in the new Mass. Not fall into this trap. We hold the true faith and it's for everyone. Christ does not have one love for traditional Catholics and another love for Novus ordo Catholics another love for Protestants etc. He has only one love; He has only one faith; He has only one demand and it's for all men on earth. Not just for us. And remember what our Lord said, 'Will there be any faith left when I return?' Of course there will be, but there'll be few who hold the faith. But the faith won't change though many will walk away from it. Let's stay firm in the faith. God bless you all. In the Name of the Father.…
... Some considerations today on some points that have been brought out by Bishop Williamson again and again, particularly the last couple of weeks once again visiting a couple of our parishes or places where I say the Mass - particularly last Monday he was in Oregon and in the same place where I have said the Mass not for some time....and then just before that St. Mary's in Kansas. It is in a different place but they took away about half of our parish in St. Mary's Kansas. I don't know what other places were visited, but about bringing up the issues of the new Mass and the miracles and the teaching of the Church and so on.
Up until less than two years ago we had no concern about these two matters. We know that the new Mass is evil and that Vat.II is evil ...we're having Mass here in a little meeting room; having Mass in homes and people's houses, and even our church that we've built in the last forty years are buildings we built from nothing, or old Protestant churches that were turned over to Catholic churches or old Catholic churches that were closed down because of the crisis of Vatican II.
So, our churches of the Latin Mass and tradition of the last fifty years exist because we recognised that the new conciliar church and the new Mass is not of God. And the new conciliar church and the new Mass they are leading souls to hell. The new conciliar church and the new Mass which is simply a liturgical expression of the new conciliar church; liturgical expression of the new theology of Vat.II that this new theology is not the theology of my father; not the theology of my grandfather; not the theology of my spiritual Father; the priests that formed me; not the theology of my principle father who was raised a Catholic or my grandfather all the way down the line until the first Catholic was made a Catholic in my family - and the same with your families.
Our faith is given to us by our ancestors. We stand upon the shoulders of our fathers. We teach the same doctrine they teach; we live the same faith they live; we live the same soul, the same doctrine, the same spirit, the same everything as our fathers and ancestors.
And what's happened?
Well fifty years ago there was a wandering away from God by the Church. Real bishops, real priests and the true pope. The real bishops, the real priests and the true pope wandered away from God. They took the churches with them. All the Catholic churches in Phoenix are no exception. All these churches built to honour God. Catholics who have been here for 500 years.
And what do they do?
They took away the faith of these Catholics that have been here for almost 500 years. And they have taken away their faith. They are not teaching them the same as the old missionaries that came here establishing the faith. And there are those who followed them - continued the same faith - they came, these real priests the descendants of real priests. The bishops were descendants of real bishops, the pope the descendant of the real popes -these descendant bishops, priests and pope of the fruit of the holy Roman Catholic Church taught another religion. Therefore we say NO! We must stay with the religion of our fathers. So therefore we were driven out of the churches and we had to build our own churches. We had to establish chapels inside of houses and so on everywhere in the world. And the vast majority went along with the Vat.II church. A small minority stood up against it. The great moral leader of that movement, Archbishop Lefebvre who was not special as a Bishop. He was simply following the great number of Bishops that have been Bishops down the last 2,000 years. He was not following the modern Bishops. He was simply saying and preaching the faith that was given to him by his ancestors but he was called a renegade. His seminary was called the seminary savage - a wild-cat insane seminary. He was eventually excommunicated - invalidly, and so on.
Then what happened 40 years later?
Forty years later in 2012 the Society of St. Pius X that he founded decided real priests, real bishops the four bishops of the Society these real, priests, bishops and real faithful of the Catholic Church, being faithful to the Catholic Church of two thousand years decided to wander away in their teaching. And they decided to say that we must be part of the conciliar church; we must be approved by the conciliar church. They started to say that the new mass is legitimately promulgated and it is truly of God. They started to say that the Vat.II although it has imperfections in it - and although we don't agree with every element of it it's 95% perfect and 5% taken out of context.
Therefore the council is not an evil council - it's a dangerous council. So some still criticised it, but they criticised it secondarily, not essentially and the faith has slid away from the mainstream SSPX and they are dragging souls into modernist Rome. Bishop Fellay had an interview a few months ago to the Catholic Register of the US which is a principle paper of the US, and one of the points he made to interviewer - he said to them 'Well the people must understand this new reality of the church in which we are. It is hard to get the faithful to understand this new reality and so we have to be patient and slowly educate the people about this new reality.
What is the new reality?
We've got to accept modernism. So the resistance stands up in 2012 and fights against the modernism. Notice that all we are is the continuation of 2,000 years of history. We are not a new movement. We are not a new doctrine. We are not a new spirit. We are not a new anything. In fact, we reject all that is new called by the Sacred Scripture and called by our church - 'novelties'. When you hear the word 'novelty' that's the same as hearing the word 'devil'. It is the same as hearing the word 'sin'. It is the same as hearing the word 'lie'. It is the same as hearing the word 'evil'. So when you hear the word 'novelty' - sin, lie, evil - reject it! We reject novelties! Novelty has entered into the whole mainstream church since 1965. Novelty has entered the SSPX and theology in 2012. And now the practice is coming ...just a few weeks ago in Australia the Society priest decided to read the epistle in English. When saying the Mass, instead of saying it in Latin, he turns around and reads it in English. And reads the Gospel in English which is a modernist practice that has been going on in France for more than twenty years. And now it's spreading. And many other things like that. There is a slow spreading of modernism throughout the whole Society. And so what do we do? We stand up against it as our ancestors did.
Now four years into the resistance what are we hearing? We're hearing Bishop Williamson, the leader of it, and other priests following him who refuse to fight against him, some of them - are saying, 'Well, there's grace on the new Mass'. He just gave a talk in Kansas, near St. Mary's just a few weeks ago on September 20th - another one just last Monday in Oregon and speaking about the grace that comes from the new Mass. And (giving) long talks about it. That the new church still has good in it. That the new church is still good. That grace still flows from the new mass. The proof is the miracles.
One of our faithful asked a question last Monday - who went to the talk afterwards, but not the Mass - thirteen people were at the Mass. She asked, 'Your Excellency, would you consider retracting your statements about the false benefits of the new mass and the false miracles?' He slammed his fist against the table and said 'NO"! I will not! And then a discussion followed on these things. That there are benefits from the new mass. The new mass has true in it and the new mass has false in it. The new mass has good in it, and the new mass has bad in it. But the good and the true benefits the soul. This is the teaching which is condemned by our Holy Mother the Church . It is the foundation of the heresy of ecumenism. And remember that modern ecumenists say that Buddha is good because he's Buddha and he's good for belly button diseases and the other gods are good for all kinds of things. That they are good in themselves. That's the modern ecumenist. But the first ecumenist did not say that. The first ecumenist said, 'we're only be ecumenical to Protestants. We're not being ecumenical to pagans only to Protestants.
Why is that?
Because the Protestants believe that Jesus is God and that's good. And it's true. They don't believe in the Blessed Virgin Mary and that's bad and that's false. But they believe that Jesus is God and that's true. They don't believe in the hierarchy of the Church, they don't believe in the Sacraments but they do believe that Christ gives grace and you have to go to Christ to get to heaven. So! the Protestants can be saved in what is good in their Protestantism. What is bad is horrible to Protestants. What is good is good to Protestants.
So the fact that Jesus is God, that's good. And the fact that Mary is not the Mother of God well that's bad. But this can be overlooked because they say Jesus is God. 'Look at all the people already that don't think Jesus is God. We have the unity that we standing together and saying that Jesus is God'. Now take that theology fifty years forward. And now what do we say? Donald Trump, holy Trump the trump card. Donald Trump is against something bad. What is it? I don't know but .... a bad economy. We know that. And we're in favour of a good economy so we can stand in union with Donald Trump because Hillary is worse. Tomorrow night she is supposed to be giving a talk. They are going to have a ninety minute debate and the scuttlebutt is that if she can't stand in the debate, if she survives the debate she may continue as a Democrat running evil person in charge. And if she doesn't make it through the debate then the other .... in the crowd will make her step down and put another Satan in her place. Or representative of Satan. Meanwhile the representative of Satan is running against the representative of Beelzebub. And the two are arguing.
And what are they arguing about?
How to make our people more comfortable in money. And so what happens? The Catholic says 'Well.... we have in common with the Protestants that we believe in Jesus so let's not pay attention to our theological differences, and it is recognised that a Protestant can do a lot of good because they believe that Jesus Christ is God. So let's unite with him insofar as he's telling the truth and let's be silent about our differences.
And what happens?
We lose our faith. So now we've lost that faith, so what's the next level? Well, those who believe Jesus is God, and those who believe Allah is God and all those who believe in a Jewish God all believe in only one God. At least we're not like the Hindus who believe in many Gods! So let's be united so long as we say we believe in God. And so they begin to put God, God, God - God bless America. Whichever God you believe in because there's only one God. But now we realise that there are people out there that are promoting homosexuality, and there's people out there that are promoting evils of abortion, but the Hindus are not in favour of abortion. And the Hindus don't like immorality and the Hindus are very modernist. So, let's just say those who believe in a Higher Power or Higher Powers - this we have in common because we all believe in Higher Powers. Now we come to the level - I even know homosexuals who are against homosexual marriage. So let's say that even if you’re going to be a homosexual at least be against homosexual marriage because we all agree that marriage is union between a guy and a girl because they love each other or something like that.
Marriage is a union between a man and a woman because of babies - that's what it is. So they don't even know what marriage is. You see how it goes down and never stops? Once you've given up the truth you can't stop giving it up. You may want to stop with ecumenism only with Protestants; you may want to stop with ecumenism between religious people because religious people are people of faith. You may want to stop with ecumenism only with good atheists - but it can't stop. Once you have given up Christ as God - as the truth it never stops. And this is the problem. It's a very grave error when Bishop Williamson says that what is true in the new Mass does good what is evil in the new Mass is dangerous. He doesn't say it does bad - it's dangerous. Many things that are good are dangerous. All Catholics know that beer is good and whisky is good and wine is good, but if you like a drink too much it's dangerous...give me thirty bottles and see what happens. How are you going to be standing upright. The wine is still good. But drinking too much - dangerous! Is wine evil? No, it's not, but dangerous for an alcoholic. And when we say people like alcoholics and the new Mass is like beer - dangerous, well that means it's not evil - it's only dangerous. So therefore be careful. Take it in small doses and you're going to be OK.
So he says there's truth in the new Mass. .And there's dangerous things in the new Mass. I am not saying the new Mass is good, but I am not saying it's all that bad either. So it is both good AND it is bad. So when you tell me your thing is good, no I say it's bad. You're saying it's bad, no, it's good. And they are both true because it's half good and its half bad. You speak to me on the left side, I jump to the right. You speak to me on the right side I'll jump to the left. It's call, 'dancing round the word' 'ambiguity' 'equivocation' - not acceptable for the man of God. But what's happening is it's leading souls astray. And then in the discussion about this new Mass what does he say? 'We must follow the e-vi-dence'. Mocking one of my parishioners last week. 'We must follow the e-vi-dence'.
E V I D E N C E - evidence. I don't have a conclusion or offer a conclusion and then say the evidence doesn't matter - I go from the premises to the conclusion says the Bishop and not the conclusion first, I don't make an a priori judgement. A priori means one up front. But, in fact as Catholics we do make an a priori judgement. We know that our faith is a priori - first and foremost - the infinite, infallible, immutable truth and can never be changed. And no other so-called truth can overcome it. And even if I don't know the argument - even if I don't know all these angles - I know what St. Jerome says, if a.....in Sacred Scripture comes to me says, St. Jerome, 1,600 years ago and he shows to me by good arguments and good proofs how God was wrong, how the Sacred Scripture was wrong and how the teaching of Christ and His Church was wrong I will nevertheless believe the teaching of Christ because I know it to be true. I will nevertheless believe in scripture because I know it to be true. And I won't accept his arguments. And what do we discover in due time? He's wrong! The enemy of God is wrong.
In 1859 the enemies of God came to the Catholic Church and they said all scientists in the world have proven beyond the shadow of a doubt without any possibility of doubt that the earth must be millions and millions and millions of years old. Now they discover it's billions of years old. Back then it was only millions. So millions of years old and therefore everyone knows it's that way, and scripture says it's 6,000 years old - the bible is wrong - and the Catholic says, 'Well, you've proven that the Church is millions of years old, we have to adjust our thinking.
Maybe the word 'day' doesn't mean 'day' - Doris Day or something like that. So, we didn't know what the word 'day' means so now we have re-analyse the word 'day'. We don't know what it means, and the Church backed down because they were afraid the scientists were right, and the scientists were liars, and sons of the father of lies. And so what was discovered in the twentieth century? By looking at the rivers that are in this world none of them are over 4,000 years old. Not one river on this planet is over 4,000 years old. All of them date back to the ..... No tree is older than that; there is not enough dust, in fact the proof is irrefutable that the earth cannot be more than 10,000 years old. Somewhere between 4,000 and 10,000 years - it cannot be more than ten and cannot be less than four - that is the scientific evidence. But they didn't now that in l859 but they new what God said. And they said we change the word of God to match the E V I D E N C E! Evidence changes. Go to a courtroom sometime. Evidence is quite manipulative. One politician told me he said, 'It's true, that figures never lie. But liars often figure'. You can always manoeuvre the truth to make it say what you want it to say, and men have been doing this for thousands of years.
So what do we mean by evidence?
There are things I can know without checking through all the details. There are things I can know without having to be an academic. I know that Jesus Christ is God and I know that he rules from the ...., but it tells in the history channel that he didn't. These are intelligent men who have studied profoundly. No they have not. They are liars, they are sons of the father of lies who will burn profoundly. But I don't need to believe their garbage. I already know that it's false. There are things I CAN know a priori because I can know what my Church taught. And what did the Church teach? St. Thomas Aquinas tells us miracles are called wonders. These are wonders which defy natural explanation and the true wonder is one which is done only by God. Some wonders we just don't understand but its a higher intelligence like man can do something that an animal can't do. For an angel to do something that a man can't do. These are not miracles they are the function of a higher intelligence. But there are some things that only God can do and only God does! He interferes with nature, He interrupts the laws of nature for a brief time in order to perform a miracle. Only God can perform miracles. No-one else can perform miracles. All miracles are from God - that is the teaching of our Catholic faith, and it's just common sense. Now God cannot perform a miracle for an evil purpose. God can only perform miracles for a good purpose.
What is that purpose?
He, Himself says in Sacred Scripture, and it is the teaching of our Church that the purpose of miracles is to confirm the faith; to strengthen the faith, and one of our arguments against the Protestants, the Hindus, Muslims - against all other false religions that we are the only religion with true miracles.
A guy was telling me the other day about a miracle that happened in his Hindu village. He said a rock came down and it fell through the village and it didn't kill anyone. So they called it a miracle rock. That's not a miracle. That's just a rock that missed the houses. But we have real miracles - such as Jesus Christ rising from the dead. Such as the saints raising people from the dead. Such as Padre Pio giving a girl who had no eyes - all she had was two white blobs in her eyes. She blessed him and she could see until she died. But he didn't bother to give her her eyes because it would take too much time. So she could see without eyes. And she saw without eyes until she died a few years ago. These are miracles.
Now, what about these modern miracles? The argument is there are miracles in the new Mass. These miracles prove that the new Mass is not altogether bad - so says the Bishop. And then they have the miracles. Three miracles. One approved by the SSPX 'cos remember the SSPX got on the miracle bandwagon just a few months ago with the miracle the SSPX put out in an article that is still available on SSPX.org. The article says that miracle of ....in Poland 2014 is a Eucharistic miracle. Bishop Williamson mentions a miracle in.....in Poland 2008. He also wrote about a miracle in Buenos Aires in 1997. We have a 1997 miracle, a 2008 miracle and a 2014 miracle miraculous hosts. The position about these three miracles - the one written by the SSPX in Poland....they all say exactly the same thing.
1. There was a Host dropped on the floor because of Communion in the hand or because the priest dropped the Host. 2. The Host is put into a glass of water so that it would dissolve and then be poured into the ground several days later after it had dissolved. 3. It was placed in a cabinet in the Sacristy, not in the Tabernacle.
After a few days a sister opened up the cabinet and it was red on the Host. They then took it to an analyst different people analysed it and said it is the muscle of a human heart, all three the same. The muscle of the human heart that had undergone trauma - therefore it is a Eucharistic miracle.
The Bishop of Buenos Aires approved that miracle - the other two bishops approved those other two Eucharistic miracles. There are pilgrimages going on in each of these three places and their are souls who visit there to see the Eucharistic miracle. Then the SSSPX and Bishop Williamson say the same thing. One of the signs that there is a miracle is that the Bishop approved. Think about that for a moment as a traditional Catholic. The Bishop approves of dancing girls. The Bishop approves the new Mass. The Bishop approves of ecumenical services. The Bishop approves of gay Masses throughout the world. Not every Bishop but many bishops. The Bishop approves of clown Masses. The Bishop approves of many things which we all have a problem with because they are against the law of God. So now we say that the Bishop has approved all these things against the law of God. When he approves it IS something so it must be right. Bad argument. He who approves of evil evil evil evil is not good judge of what is good good good and good. That's a problem. And so it is not a very good argument - that the bishop approves. Also the same Bishop like Bergoglio - a bishop who is well known today because he has become Pope Francis - he himself says he doesn't believe in a Catholic God. He himself doubts the resurrection of Our Lord Jesus Christ. He doesn't know that he does not believe in the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. And each day you could tune in to hear his latest heresy of the week.
And he has many many heresies that he says all the time. He denies the teaching of the Catholic faith continuously. He approved of the miracle. That this is a genuine miracle. And why does he approve of such a miracle? Because it's a miracle that proves the goodness of the new Mass and the goodness of the new church. What do these miracles do? They lead souls away from the true Mass into the false Mass. Leads souls away from the true Church into the false Church.
What are the results of these miracles?
St. Thomas says, 'Only God can perform a miracle and a miracle is only done to confirm the true faith, and miracles are only found in the true Church' and even the examples of the past where Balaam was a false prophet and others that have performed miracles or been involved in miracles and prophecy - each of these miracles and prophecies confirmed the Holy, Roman Catholic Faith. That's what they do. They never confirm another faith. They confirm the true faith.
Fr. Chazal said in a sermon back in an April report, he said that the miraculous apparitions of Akita - these are also from God and that the sister in Akita was given the stigmata in her hands and clearly she was given the stigmata so that she wouldn't receive Communion in the hand.
Well, you know what?
There's a famous stigmatist that we all know - Padre Pio - we've seen pictures of him. He has a wrap around his hand and blood all over his hand. Now if the stigmata of the hand means you shouldn't touch the host with your hand what does that mean? Padre Pio should not, should not touch the host when he celebrates Mass. He should use his toes or his teeth or something else. But he should not touch the host with his hands. He had the stigmata for fifty years. When he received the stigmata he was already a priest. He said the Mass every day for those fifty years and every day he touched the host with his hands because he's a priest of God. He elevated the host with his hands. And therefore, to argue that a stigmata in the hand signifies that you shouldn't receive Communion in the hand is absolutely absurd. Why are they reaching? reaching to justify the unjustifiable. And souls are discussing it and discussing it. Does grace flow from the new Mass? No it does not. And the argument given is that grace must flow from the new Mass because of the valid Presence of Christ. If Christ is present then there must be grace. No, that's not true. That is not the teaching of the church, and if it were then you can go to the local Orthodox Mass there is an Orthodox Mass here in Phoenix somewhere. You could go to Protestant Churches, such as the High Anglican Church Masses because High Church Anglicans believe in the Real Presence and even got themselves re-ordained. I remember meeting many Anglican Priests - my name is Father Andrew Anglican priest - I was re-ordained.
Why did they tell me that?
Because Pope Leo XIII wrote an encyclical . ........ in which he said the Anglican priests are invalid. And guess what?
Many of them new he was right and guess what they did? They got orthodox and bad Catholic Bishops to re-ordain them. So now they have valid priests. So why don't you check in to the local Anglican High Church of England...we have one of those churches in Denver where the priests are not allowed to say the Anglican Mass unless they were re-ordained. So they are valid Masses. Book of Common Prayer said in English....this is my Body, this is my Blood. Christ is really present. So why not go sing the Gregorian chant...they do it a lot better than we do. So why not go to the Anglican church to get Mass to get grace. If the Mass that's valid gives grace then we don't need the Catholic Church. But we need the Catholic Church. It is not enough to be valid. Valid simply means that Christ is made present. They say because Christ is present He gives grace. And what's the proof? The proof is the Council of Trent.
This is absurd!
But from the Council of Trent they say, 'If anyone denies the Sacraments of the new law give grace let him be anathema. So Mr. Johnson said this a while ago that Father Pfeiffer must be a heretic because he says that the valid Masses don't give grace. The Council of Trent clearly teaches that valid Masses give grace. That's not what the council of Trent teaches. Grace passes through the sacraments...what does that mean? It's against the Protestant heresy which is that Sacraments don't give grace; the sacraments are not vehicles of grace. Grace only comes to me firstly because of my act of faith. And the sacraments are just symbolic nice little ceremonies. Customs. And of course if they are just customs then why do them?
That's why ninety percent of Protestants dumped them. Why have these ceremonies if they don't give grace they're just customs. So, of course Protestants in the beginning all had Mass but they have now, ninety percent of them, dumped the Mass and they only have little discussions and singing services. Because why have it if it doesn't give grace?
Grace truly flows through the Mass. Grace truly flows through Baptism and all the seven Sacraments .But the grace can be blocked! And this is called an obex. This is basic sacramental theology. It's not complicated sacramental theology, it's basic sacramental theology. An obex or a block that prevents grace from getting into a soul. So imagine the Sacraments and grace are like a big water tank. If the water tank has no hole, has no valve, has no way for the water to exit then no water comes to you. You don't get any water. So likewise, the Sacraments truly hold grace. But in order for you to you to receive the grace it has to flow through the channels and you would have to have not only a valid receiver of the Sacrament you have to have a licit receiver of the Sacrament. What does St. Paul say, it's in the Holy Scripture : To receive Holy Communion unworthily is to eat and drink unto destruction. Its a valid Holy Communion, it's validly received and you receive it as a sacrilege and you get a deeper place in hell. It is not enough that Christ be present. More is required - the state of grace. But before that Faith and Unity with the Church! When we say this Mass we say it one with the Holy Father the Pope Francis. This Mass is not said alone. Even if I say Mass in the airport. I often say Mass in the airport or hotels or wherever. Wherever the Mass is said it is in union with our holy Mother the Church and if it's not in union THERE IS NO GRACE!
So what does St. Thomas say?
- 'and since the consecration of the Eucharist is a power which follows the power of Order such persons that are separated from the Church by heresy, by schism or by excommunication they can indeed consecrate the Eucharist which, on being consecrated by them, contains Christ's true Body and Blood.'
Christ is truly present - so they're valid. But they act wrongly and they sin by doing so. And in consequence they do not receive the fruit of the sacrifice which is a spiritual sacrifice. They don't receive the fruit. They don't receive grace. And again: 'not having lost the power of Holy Order, he consecrates Christ's true Body and Blood, but because he is severed from the unity of the Church his prayers have no efficacy.
When the heretic, when the modernist says the Mass it doesn't have efficacy. And the efficacy can become null because of the individual blockage of the priest himself or because of the blockage of the rite. If the rite is blocked from the Church grace cannot flow. The new Mass is evil. Grace cannot flow from it. [....] they validly sacrifice in the name of Christ but they do not offer sacrifice as ministers of the Church and hence no good. Leo Thirteenth 1983 quotes St. Augustine they are nonetheless valid and they serve in some measure that form and the periods of piety that St. Paul mentions 1 Cor. 13 :3 and which St. Augustine speaks of at greater length 'the form of the bread says, the latter with great precision may still be visible even apart from the vine but the invisible life of the root can be preserved only in union with the stock. That is why the corporal sacraments which some keep and use outside the unity of Christ can preserve the appearance of piety, but the invisible and spiritual virtue of true piety cannot abide there any more than feelings remain in an amputated member.'
So there is no grace - he uses the word 'grace' there at the beginning '..from this it follows also that they cannot promise themselves any of the graces and the fruits of the perpetual sacrifice of the sacraments which although they are sacrilegiously administered are nonetheless valid'.
There's no grace says Leo Thirteenth. We must be united to the Church in order to receive grace. And if we have a sacrilegious rite it doesn't give grace.
Now does God give grace to these souls?
Bishop Williamson said in his talk the other day - [........] 'and God is going to bend them all, and God is going to save the resistance Catholics and God wants to save the SSPX Catholics and God wants to save the Novus Ordo Catholics. He has so many more to take care of than just us'.
What does Christ say?
Will there be any faith left when I return?
We're not resistance Catholics, we're just Catholics. Catholics who believe as our Fathers and ancestors who hold the true faith. We don't play games with that faith. And we cannot play games with that faith. We must hold this true faith whole and undefiled against all the errors and heresies of the modern world whole and undefiled.
What about the others?
God gives grace to every human being in order to be saved. He gives actual grace to every soul including someone who has committed a murder; including someone who is involved in Satanism; including someone who is doing the most vile acts. God gives them the grace to repent. He gives them the grace to stop. He gives them the grace to make a perfect act of charity and save their souls and go to heaven. But does the grace come from murder? No it doesn't. One example is the famous video of the Silent Scream about abortion. There are many women who have seen that video where a baby is being murdered inside the womb and those women decided not to have an abortion. They received the grace to repent from the abortion they had in the past. Does that mean grace flows from that doctor who murdered that baby? And grace flows from that Mother who had her baby murdered in order to have a more convenient life? Are we grateful to the good part of the crushing of the head? Are we grateful to the murderer - the doctor? Are we grateful to the evil that's been done? And did good come from the evil? St. Thomas Aquinas says this is a perversion. No good comes directly from evil. It comes in spite of the evil. The murderer did not give grace. And the new Mass is the murderer of souls. The new Mass is the murderer of the faith.
IT DOES NOT GIVE GRACE!
And we have one billion examples around us in the Church today. Souls wandering away from God. Empty! Filling Hell. Grace must flow.
Bishop Williamson said 'some have said that the new Mass is being strangled but not condemned the grace is less than it was before'
We used to condemn that. This is the teaching of Fraternity of St. Peter; it's the teaching of the indult communities that grace is less in the new Mass more in the old Mass which means that the old Mass is better and the new Mass is OK. You have just said theologically - the new Mass is OK. Now that means you no longer have a reason to not go to it. Now if you have an emotional hang-up that you won't go to it then let's be patient and given time you will lose those emotional hang-ups and you'll be able to go to it. Once you accept it, it's accepted. If the new Mass gives grace which it does not; if the new Mass only strangles a little bit so that the grace is not as much as it used to be, then if you've got a choice between the old Mass and the new Mass of course you would go to the old Mass. But if you don't have an old Mass then go to the New!
St. John the alms giver, said in the seven hundreds 'You never receive Communion from the hand of a heretic even if he says only the true Mass'. In his days there was no new Mass, there was only a true Mass. And he said you do not receive Communion from the hands of heretics. And somehow this is spreading and spreading amongst some of our people.
This is a grave error. It must be condemned.
We must hold the teaching of our ancestors and also, if we have charity what does that mean? It means we love our neighbour and want to help him stop taking the poison. We want to help him out of the pit. The new Mass is a pit! The new modern Church is a pit! And now the SSPX is trying to dive headlong into it. And now many parts of the resistance, following this new teaching, are saying, 'Well the new Mass is not essentially evil any more. It's not as bad as some people say they are. And the proof of these miracles which are not miracles.
Going briefly back to the evidence...
Three miracles identical to each other. Why is that? Each of them not witnessed. Each of them inside a cabinet. Plenty of opportunity for someone to come in and put human flesh there - real human flesh can be put there and it can be protected. It is easy for these to be in cahoots. Remember the Texan in Texas there was the dry wall scandal a few years ago. When there were more than thirty or forty men thrown into prison for possession of cocaine. What they possessed was sheet-rock dust. The police took sheet-rock and drywall and grounded it into powder. It looks just like cocaine. They put it in bags. They put it in the back of the car. They arrested the guy - took it to a lab and the lab confirmed that it was genuine cocaine. High grade. Taste drywall sometime - you won't get high, you might get sick but you won't get high. No-one can mix it up. The judge was involved; the labs were involved; not just one lab.; the police were involved. There was a whole corrupt ring, and why did they do it? Because the Sheriff wanted to say 'I have more arrests this year than anybody else.' I know at least thirty were convicted for possession of drywall. That is what they were convicted for, but it said 'this is cocaine that they possess'. They were thrown in prison. They released them at the end and said to the cops,'That wasn't nice, you shouldn't do that'. That was the punishment.
They should be locked up in prison for as long as the longest sentence and not be allowed any parole. But they didn't do that. We are in an age we have systems of corruption. Now why the corruption? There's a reason for it. People are leaving the novus ordo church and they are losing something called money. They are losing support. So we need to create miracles - we've got to justify this new church. So they justify it by creating false miracles. This one worked in Buenos Aires after three attempts. Third miracle in the same church - the first two miracles didn't work out, but the third they finally got right. Now they've got the third miracle that matches the same miracle in Poland. So get ready for another miracle for a church near you. It smells a rat.
And what is its result?
Souls going to new Mass; souls continue to receive Communion in the hand; souls accepting the conciliar church; souls not really returning to God. But if you want to know about miracles look at the charismatic movement - so many miracles the charismatic movement. They claimed thousands of miracles. And people came to church and they filled the churches in droves. And they became more religious. But what happened in a couple of years they formed their own religion. They denied the Blessed Virgin Mary. The end up going away and building their own churches. They wander away from the faith. It's a temporary conversion.
Let's wait and see how long term these conversions are.
Let us persevere in the truth and not accept these false miracles in the new Mass. Not fall into this trap. We hold the true faith and it's for everyone. Christ does not have one love for traditional Catholics and another love for Novus ordo Catholics another love for Protestants etc. He has only one love; He has only one faith; He has only one demand and it's for all men on earth. Not just for us. And remember what our Lord said, 'Will there be any faith left when I return?' Of course there will be, but there'll be few who hold the faith. But the faith won't change though many will walk away from it. Let's stay firm in the faith. God bless you all. In the Name of the Father.…
