Swimming in Gratitude: A Memorial Reflection
Preamble:
It is August 1st again. A line from the Office of the feast of St. Peter's Chains struck me particularly today as I am in thankful contemplation of the 7th anniversary of my being rescued, by an "angel of the Lord", from the modernist chains that kept me fastened to the Modernist impostor church for the first twenty nine years of my life. It reads thus:
"Peter therefore was kept in prison. But prayer was made without ceasing by the church unto God for him" (Acts 12:5)
Prison, unceasing prayer, the imprisoner, the agents of the imprisonment... I ponder these points within the context of the Modernist imposture at the service of their agenda of revolution in permanence.
Comes in The Servant of God, Fr. Guanella
As I noted in the 15th chapter of "My Treasured Mistake", according to the Servant of God, Father Guanella, the diabolical agents of liberalism and secularism are the “Judases” and “Caiphases,” “Neros,” and “Diocletians” of the time.
He wrote:
"Brethren! The Judases and Caiaphases who crucified Jesus Christ still exist today. They are the Masons who, so many times every day, blaspheme God and seek to put the Almighty to death…” “There are also today the Neros and Diocletians, the executioners of the martyrs.”
Now, King Herod had St. Peter arrested and imprisoned. St. Peter knew he was a prisoner. He remained in perfect joy, commiting himself with entire confidence and submission to divine disposal.
Just like the Servant of God, Fr. Guanella, saw in the Masons the "Neros And Diocletians -the executioners of the martyrs", who, with an informed Catholic Common Sense, would fail to see in the Modernists the "Herods"; and their imposter institution the "prison" in which unsuspecting Catholics are fastened with chains and kept under strict guard?
A Grateful Beneficiary
Now, while St. Peter was fully aware that he was a prisoner, the prisoners of the "Herods" of our days, the Modernists, are usually unaware that they are prisoners. However, the prisoners of the Modernist impostor institution occupying Catholic buildings who remain in "perfect joy" within the system are those who, being in dearth of any vestige of Catholic Common Sense, have not love of the truth.
It is a fact that those with some vestige of Catholic Common Sense, however informed, always, without fail, feel as in a strange land with the Modernist impostor church. These, informing their Catholic Common Sense , eventually find themselves to be beneficiaries of the unceasing prayer of the Church now eclipsed and also of the actual graces ordained by divine Providence to unchain them and let them out of the Modernist prison.
Yes, everyday in the eclipsed Catholic world, unceasing prayer is offered, among other things, for "the liberty and exaltation of our Holy Mother the Church", for "the rooting out of all heresies", for those stuck in the darkness of error...
Those with Catholic Common Sense but imprisoned in the Modernist hybrid ecumenical pan religion posing as Catholic Church, collaborating with actual graces given them are led surely to recognize and reject it for what it is. What are some of these "actual graces"? Listening to a Modernist agent without the Modernist mask making derogatory statements about what they call "pre-conciliar Church"; an article online either stumbled upon or shared by someone, a YouTube video, encountering someone who styles himself "traditional Catholic"...the list goes on.
I am a grateful beneficiary of the unceasing prayer of the remnant Catholics and the actual graces ordained by divine Providence to undeceive the prisoners of the Modernist impostor church. When I was freed from all the "chains" that held me in that prison seven years, it felt like a dream, a vision. And, it still feels like it seven years later...
Summing up.
While, seven years ago today, based on objective Catholic principles I reckoned myself as freed from Modernist chains, the majority voice thought me deluded and a fool. Today, Seven years later, the popular option of me has not changed just as my conviction remains the same.
Either due to gross ignorance or sheer malice, I am still considered a “lost sheep,” a “heretic,” a “schismatic” who “left the [Catholic] Church” to join a “cult” group; I am still considered an antiCatholic.
Since my priestly ordination two years ago, some outrightly call me out as an impostor cleric, and others implicitly treat me to be such; while according Modernist impostor lay-robbed men with all the respect and reverence due to a Catholic Priest.
Schooled in line with the principles for the sustenance of the Modernist revolution in permanence, they call good evil, and evil good - "good called evil" i.e. a validly ordained uncompromising Catholic Priest called invalid and an imposter; "evil called good", I.e. lay-robbed men signed up in the Modernist revolutionary agency reputed as valid Catholic Priests.
They call those in the uncompromising and uncompromised Apostolic succession heretics and schismatics to be avoided; while highly esteeming the sharers in the Modernist Apostate Apostolicity. Wise in their own eyes, they are ill-disposed to any attempt to draw their attention to objective Catholic principles and facts against which no argument can be made.
How unfortunate, they are made beneficiaries of a number of biblical woes:
Woe to you that call evil good, and good evil: that put darkness for light, and light for darkness: that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter. Woe to you that are wise in your own eyes, and prudent in your own conceits. (Isaias 5: 20-21)
Kyrie Eleison!
For my part, swimming in gratitude for being enrolled, despite my unworthiness, in the unchanged and unchanging Apostolic vineyard as an unprofitable servant, it is mine to meditate prayerfully on the following Apostolic injunction:
But in all things let us exhibit ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in tribulation, in necessities, in distresses, In stripes, in prisons, in seditions, in labours, in watchings, in fastings, In chastity, in knowledge, in longsuffering, in sweetness, in the Holy Ghost, in charity unfeigned, In the word of truth, in the power of God: by the armour of justice on the right hand and on the left: By honour and dishonour: by evil report and good report: as deceivers and yet true: as unknown and yet known: As dying and behold we live: as chastised and not killed: As sorrowful, yet always rejoicing: as needy, yet enriching many: as having nothing and possessing all things. (2 Cor. 6: 4-10)
Lauds Deo Virginique 🙏
