Brian, you’ve done a great job of explaining/clarifying where we are today. We need to keep that balance - be aware and never lose sight of the promises of God. Especially His promise about the gates of hell will not prevail against the church. Many times I’ve had to bring myself back from focusing on the moment and realize I keep trying to put God in a ‘box’. He is still sovereign. He is still the great I AM. What a comfort that He has and does continue to care so much for us that He has shared some things to be prepared. But our eyes MUST always stay firmly on Him!! Thank you, Brian. (I’m 80 yrs old and the journey is amazing!).

God bless you, truly. My grandmother reposed at 79 last year. A lot of us young people in the church have a similar story. Where our parents are not necessarily super committed to their beliefs, but that our grandparents are and they were the initial relatives who planted the seeds in us early on. My grandmother was devout and had a very personal relationship with our Lord. It inspires me every day. Grandparents are a blessing from God, and I loved mine dearly. And you're right. It's easy to get caught up in the current events in the church, but studying church history, we've been through much worse and made it out okay. We will make it out of this okay as well.

Yeah, we can see it described in Revelation 17:4-6.

A happy side note: When in Mark and Matthew Jesus says only His Father knows the hour, he’s playing off a Jewish idiom from the 1st century…it’s what the groom would say about his wedding, because the father of the groom invited all the guests. Or when He tells the disciples He is going to prepare a room for them…this was also a reference to preparation for the wedding. Jesus thinks of the “end times” as preparations for the wedding banquet of the lamb (see Revelation 19). Read “Jesus the Bridegroom by Dr. Brant Pitre and let Christian hope swallow anxiety.

"...his religion will be a Brotherhood..." Sheen says, aka, the Masonic Fraternity, a Christless brotherhood of man. Those who know it's happening see it clearly while those who deny it's happening will never see it because it's already happening in front of them and they still don't see it. February 10, 2021 (LifeSitenews) - For the second time in less than five months, the Gran Logia de España, Spain’s main masonic lodge, has expressed its profound satisfaction at Pope Francis’s involvement in the “Human Fraternity” initiative launched in Abu Dhabi on February 4, 2019. This time, the Spanish Freemasons published a long message welcoming the first ever International Day of Human Fraternity a few days ago, again on February 4, during which Pope Francis, together with Grand Imam Ahmad al-Tayyeb, bestowed an award for peace and fraternity on U.N. secretary general António Guterres in an online ceremony.

Fr. Kramer's explanation of the book of Apocalypse chapter 12:1-5 "Church suffers the keenest pangs passing at that time through the greatest crisis of her whole life. In that travail, she gives birth to some definite “person” who is to RULE the Church with a rod of iron (verse 5). It then points to a conflict waged within the Church to elect one who was to “rule all nations” in the manner clearly stated. In accord with the text this is unmistakably a PAPAL ELECTION, for only Christ and His Vicar have the divine right to rule ALL NATIONS. Furthermore, the Church does not travail in anguish at EVERY papal election which can be held without trouble or danger. But at this time the great powers may take a menacing attitude to hinder the election of the logical and expected candidate by threats of a general apostasy, assassination or imprisonment of this candidate if elected. This would suppose an extremely hostile mind in the governments of Europe towards the Church and would cause intense anguish to the Church, because an extended interregnum in the papacy is always disastrous and more so in a time of universal persecution. If Satan would contrive to hinder a papal election, the Church would suffer great travail. …As a dragon, Satan through the evil world-powers of that time will enter the Church, interfere with her liberty and perhaps by stealthy suggestions having long before directed the choosing of candidates for the episcopate will now endeavor by threats of force to hinder the election of the worthiest candidate for the papacy." (Herman Bernard Kramer, The Book of Destiny [TAN Books Reprint, 1975], pp. 277-279) The Church has been eclipsed for 65 years.

I don’t know about “waiting for something good” but rather waiting for the awful pain of the present apostasy to be over…

It's funny that Fulton Sheen called it the "Ape of the Church"; an intelligent friend of mine suggested I learn more about the Scopes Monkey Trial. It seems to me the 8th of the church is actually exemplified perfectly in that trial: nobody in that trial wanted any Divine authority whatever. The Protestants who wanted prayer did not want it as handed down from the bishops. The atheists who wanted authority wanted the authority of men in lab coats, but again not of bishops on the matter of religion. And the media manifestly always wants a bloodbath. Every controversy in the media that Catholics get harangued about has followed the exact same damn pattern. They portray the people who want god without a head and the people who want a head without God. But never the ones who think God's head can be known and followed.

@Brian I need a clarification on the criteria you mentioned wrt the chronology of great deception. As far as I can tell, the two things are the gospel having reached everyone in the world, and the Jews being converted, regrafted, gathered in etc... But not everyone gentile and jew being converted. Am I wrong in my understanding?

Another great episode Brian. Yes the Jews haven't converted yet, I think that'll be the Rubicon event.

We now have a church under Rome, which promotes ecumenism over doctrine, and fraternity above the singularity of the Christ. Both place man's natural dignity above divine law. Certainly it can get worse, but what should we expect, rhat the ape of the Church suddenly pop into existence. that it won't retain some validity from percieved 'continuity' with the Apostolic Church, and by this deceivethe elect? I fear we are so deep into this confusion we cannot see what is going on. Yet, Francis has made it very clear, for those willing to hear, that he has a deeply Protestant soteriology, and a very liberal form of Protestantism at that. He is a naturalist who puts human sensibility and 'inate sacred dignity' above every doctrine. This is in keeping with the evolutionary Christology of the assent of man that the mid century mods were so enamored with. Though never overtly said, if you listen for Francis' assumptions, you hear his deep Modernism, that religion is a function of human creativity, and thus should serve the conscience of man as this is its source. Is Francis the end of this inversion? Not likely, as he is not its beginning. But to assume the Roman church is still Christocentric from its highest seat, is to be blind to the cult of man it has been transforming into.

As if allowing it to change or dissolve would ruin God's plan for all time. As if God cannot fulfill his plan without our help, and as if there can be no future state of Israel as disconnected from the modern state as the modern state is from the ancient state. God doesn't need our help to keep the world's jews alive so they can convert and fulfill prophecy. What jews there are at that future date will acknowledge Christ as king, regardless of how many there are and regardless of our acts to preserve or destroy them. The collective power and will of all of mankind does not have the strength to "prevent the second coming from happening." That would be absurd.

*Heresy is to contradict the Apostles/New Testament.* It is not a denial of grace. For example: *The Apostle taught that Satan was crushed/defeated by ONE MAN/Jesus dying on the wooden cross -- see Hebrews 2:14* -- the SEED of Israel (Isaiah 65:9) has ALREADY crushed Satan's head/power (Genesis 3:15) -- *so to teach that Mary crushes Satan* (no Biblical verses) *is heresy that contradicts the Apostle/Original Church that wrote the NT for us.*

Anti-Christ, in the greek usage of the term originally, means more 'instead of Christ' rather than 'opposed to Christ'.

The Scriptures say he will be the one that denies Christ came in the flesh.

I really think the comment on “The Catholic Church protecting Jews” is entirely incorrect.

Two sides of the same coin the Hyperpapalist (neo-modernist) and the Sedevacantist both deeply misunderstand the historical role of the papacy and the strict limits of infabillity structured by Vatican 1. Pray for them.

Faith in Christ is to trust the Church He established to have a teaching authority, Holy Scripture and Sacred Traditions in a congregation of the faithfuls. The focal point of the Body of Christ, the Bride of Christ that guides us to Him so that we may not be lost. The church is the boat we ride with Christ towards our conversion to be humble sons and daughters of God worthy to be with Him in His kingdom. Christ is with us to calm the wind, the seas and the storm in this journey with the church and we must not let fear and anxiety take hold of us, lest we might think that the boat we are in with Christ is sinking. When that happens within us, that is where the church of the apes will take hold and what the devil wants. That is why he relentlessly attacks the bride of Christ so that the church of the apes will grow within us to drag us away from Christ and His church.

approx 4:41 -- shouldn't the remedy be to read the NT so that we can plainly see when a current teaching is false ?? Acts 17:11

There have been plenty of apocalyptic times in the history of the Church. Like when the Arians nearly took over, or during the black death, or when armies of Islam arrived at the gates of Vienna at the same time that Luther was tearing the Church apart. These storms all passed. So it's important not to automatically assume that the present storm or the next one is the final tribulation, it may be or it may not.

Just an FYI the Church list three principal signs that will come before the end. The order in which these things will happen is not taught definitively and is a topic of speculation. The 3 signs are 1. The Fulfillment of the Great Commission: Most commonly this is taken to mean that the mere awareness or preaching of the good news of Christ and the Catholic Church has spread out all across the world. Others take this to mean “the universal reign of the Church” - or the dream of Integralism accomplished - the nations are converted/discipled, and submitted to the social kingship of Christ. 2. The Great Apostasy: pretty self explanatory. A near total amount of Christians grow cold and fall away. The collapse of Christendom. 3. The Antichrist: He is revealed he deceives and he reigns. That’s three BUT the newer CCC includes the common teaching of.. 4. The “corporate conversion of the Jews” (the end of Rabbinic Judaism): It points to passages of scripture where it seems to say this will occur just before the end of the time and will trigger the second coming / general resurrection. AGAIN there is no official order, but the order listed is the probably the most common. But there are a few Catholics out there who mix those four up.

Being child like in faith is important I think as per Jesus. As they only look at the facts. We get confused and wrong when we have a lot to loose and will diminish our ability to judge and come to a conclusion. Only a childlike has the capacity to say that the King is naked. For many it’s weighing how much are we to loose if we say anything. Even at Jesus’ time only simple people understood to true identity of Jesus. For a child like person it’s crystal clear what’s happening at the top of the church. And the current pontiff is the perfect candidate to be an antichrist as he works against the teachings of Christ. In the past saints never had anything to loose other than Christ, so they only wanted Christ and stood for Christ. Not for the world.

For a child like person it would be perfectly clear that no Pontiff can ever be the seat of the Antichrist, as that would instantly make Christ a liar. Even to say that he works against the teachings of Christ... *And on this rock I will build my Church and the Gates of Hell shall not prevail it.* "The words - and the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it - proclaim and establish the authority of which we speak. "What is the it?" (writes Origen). "Is it the rock upon which Christ builds the Church or the Church? The expression indeed is ambiguous, as if the rock and the Church were one and the same. I indeed think that this is so, and that neither against the rock upon which Christ builds His Church nor against the Church shall the gates of Hell prevail" (Origenes, Comment. in Matt., tom. xii., n. ii). The meaning of this divine utterance is, that, notwithstanding the wiles and intrigues which they bring to bear against the Church, it can never be that the church committed to the care of Peter shall succumb or in any wise fail. "For the Church, as the edifice of Christ who has wisely built 'His house upon a rock,' cannot be conquered by the gates of Hell, which may prevail over any man who shall be off the rock and outside the Church, but shall be powerless against it" (Ibid.). Therefore God confided His Church to Peter so that he might safely guard it with his unconquerable power." "Wherefore, as appears from what has been said, Christ instituted in the Church a living, authoritative and permanent Magisterium, which by His own power He strengthened, by the Spirit of truth He taught, and by miracles confirmed. He willed and ordered, under the gravest penalties, that its teachings should be received as if they were His own." Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cogitum

Two things: 1- can anything that humans do in this world prevent God from doing something that He wishes to do? Can any human action really prevent the Second Coming? Especially something as crude as killing all Jews? Maybe God will be so disgusted that He chooses not to come again, but that is something different. 2- Of course precious little is known about the Endtime. I think trying to read the signs and predicting this is a fool's game. But if the Ape of the Church is Christianity in reverse, it will not be the Church but only less orthodox and less traditional than we like to see. It will be something totally different. I guess no people in mitres and ritual robes, more like a state ideology. Or something more diffuse, without a clear and rigorous theoretical base. The more diffuse, the harder to pin it down on anything and the harder to fight it. There will always a lot of projection in this, but I envision more like a left-liberal utopia in which religion at all might be tolerated, but is totally marginalised.

The conversion of the Jews doesn't precede the arrival of the Antichrist. According to the traditional understanding of "another comes in his name. Him you will receive" says the Jews will see the Antichrist as their long-awaited Messiah first. By the grace of God, they will recognize their mistake and then turn to Christ.

In the second part of the Fatima secret, the Madonna foretold: "The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be destroyed. Finally, My Immaculate Heart will triumph." In a text published in 2009 where anthropologists, largely non-Catholic and even non-believers, discuss the social relevance of Marian apparitions, the role of Brazilian Catholic thinker Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira (1908-1995) as an "untiring promoter of devotion to Fatima" is mentioned. Some critics have wanted to see in Corrêa de Oliveira's interpretation of the Fatima message, foreseeing a period of convulsive crisis called "bagarre" - where indeed "the good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be destroyed" - followed by a Reign of Mary particularly favorable to the Church, where "finally, My Immaculate Heart will triumph," a sort of Catholic version of Protestant millenarianism. The criticism is unfounded. Not only does Corrêa de Oliveira not predict a specific date for these events - which often appears, though not always, in millenarianism - but also, the two crucial elements of the classic Protestant millenarian schema are absent: a visible coming - but "intermediate" compared to the "final" one at the end of the world - of Jesus to the Earth and the disappearance for a thousand years of evil and evildoers. On the contrary, for the Brazilian thinker, representative of the counter-revolutionary school that uses the term "Revolution" to designate the process of de-Christianization that characterized the West since the Renaissance, "the Revolution will continue - and I am sure of this - even in the Reign of Mary. Revolutionary cells will continue to exist and will be even worse than those of today. It seems impossible, but it will be so. Because the rejection of the graces offered in the Reign of Mary will make men worse than they are today." Pope Benedict XVI, when he repeated that the Church took the message of Fatima extremely seriously, was not far from the perspective of tragedies even worse than those humanity had already gone through - in the language of Corrêa de Oliveira, a "bagarre": "It would be an illusion to think that the prophetic mission of Fatima is concluded. [...] Man has been able to unleash a cycle of death and terror, but he cannot interrupt it..." It would have been certainly wrong to attribute to the Pope speculative - truly millenarian - notions about the "when" of the "triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary." His words were not a prediction but a wish introduced by a "may." But even though we do not know the "when," this "triumph" - which Corrêa de Oliveira, following the great French Marian saint so dear to Pope John Paul II, St. Louis de Montfort (1673-1716), called precisely the "Reign of Mary" - is certain because it is "announced" not by the speculations of men but by the voice of the Madonna herself that the Church, in the person of the Pope, welcomed and made her own. The West - here Pope Benedict XVI resumed the great theme of Pope John Paul II of the "new evangelization" - has become, with the crisis of faith, a mission territory: "The field of ad gentes mission appears considerably expanded today and not definable solely based on geographical considerations." And from Portugal, the Pope "[...] repeats to each of you: My brothers and sisters, you must become witnesses with me to the resurrection of Jesus. In fact, if you will not be his witnesses in your environment, who will be in your place?". "In Sacred Scripture, it often appears that God is in search of the righteous to save the city of men, and he does the same here, in Fatima, when the Madonna asks: 'Do you want to offer yourselves to God to endure all the sufferings that He will send you, in an act of reparation for the sins with which He is offended, and in supplication for the conversion of sinners?' (Memoirs of Sister Lucia, I, 162)." The yes of the visionaries will be the first stone for the construction of the kingdom of the Immaculate Heart of Mary only if we know how to accompany it with our yes, day by day.

YOU: the social relevance of Marian apparitions *ME: The "vision of light" at FATIMA that called itself "Mary", was satanic* (see 2Corinth 11:14) -- *it even did the same satanic miracle that the evil AntiChrist will do in Revelation 13:13-14* -- made a ball of fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men, and DECEIVED those dwelling on the earth by that miracle. Satan knows the Bible far better than YOU do -- he's well aware of the end time horrendous prophecies -- just because he comes to you as a vision of light and tells you what the Bible says, doesn't mean its really Mary being prophetic.

@@veritasmuy2407 As is known, Protestant brethren do not worship Mary. (It's not strange that those who don't have the Church, Zion, Mary as Mother aren't orphaned? Yet, you are a brother!) The reason for not venerating the Madonna is based on the fact that according to Luther, man, after original sin, is deeply corrupted, and the grace of God does not transform him internally. In other words, it does not make him go from sinner to saint, from unjust to just. And even the Madonna would find herself in the same condition as sinners. Mary would have been only the channel through which God used to come into the world. But otherwise, she would also be part of sinful humanity. Protestants recognize the virginity of Mary in the conception of Jesus, but not her virginity during and after childbirth. And primarily because for them, the only source of Revelation is Sacred Scripture. According to Catholics and Orthodox, Sacred Scripture must be read in the light of Tradition, which complements it and guarantees its authentic interpretation. Undoubtedly, at the center of Christian life is Our Lord, the Way, the Truth, and the Life (Jn 14:6). Christian life essentially consists of encountering Christ, welcoming Him, being grafted into Him, and in Him possessing God, who is eternal Life. But just as corruption entered the world through the sin of Adam and Eve, so redemption passes-precisely because the Lord willed it-through the new Adam, who is Christ, and the new Eve, who is Mary, the highest image and expression of the Church. The Madonna is undoubtedly not on the same level as the Lord because she herself was wondrously redeemed by her Son. But Jesus Himself wanted her by His side. He wanted to be introduced into the world by her. He wanted to be introduced into public life by her in Cana of Galilee. On the cross, He entrusted her to us as Mother in the order of grace. And on Pentecost, we see her among the Apostles and other people in the Upper Room. Her presence, however, is noted in a singular way: "All these were persevering with one mind in prayer, together with some women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and His brothers" (Acts 1:14). Therefore, the Madonna, as she has a special role in the life of Christ, also has it towards the Church. Not because we establish it, but because Our Lord wanted it. Christocentrism-rightly referenced by you-is not in opposition to devotion to the Madonna. On the contrary, turning to Mary is the shortest, most beautiful, and most fruitful way to reach our Lord, to holiness. Mary, in fact, is entirely Christ-centered. Indeed, she is the most successful Christocentrism. The Lord Himself places it in our hands to make it our own. We entrust ourselves to Mary. To filially entrust oneself to the blessed Virgin is not an exceptional and unexpected act for the family of Jesus' disciples. It is rather rediscovering a familiarity with the Mother of God and surrendering to her affectionate care for us, which are feelings of always; it is even rediscovering a fundamental aspect of our original identity as living members of Christ. We were entrusted to Mary the very moment we were born as a redeemed people by the blood of the Lord. From the heights of the cross, the Only Begotten Son of God with salvation and new life gave us a mother: "Behold, your mother!" He said to us. That woman, who witnessed agonizing but unweakened the agony of her Son and the frustration of every earthly expectation, has become the reason and source of our hope. That spirited creature, pierced in soul (cf. Lk 2:35) and wounded in heart, has become the cause of our joy. Her immaculate fidelity, which led her to Calvary and intimately associated her with the sacrifice that renewed the universe, remains the support of our faith and our decision to live according to the Gospel. At the foot of the cross, we became simultaneously the property of Christ the Savior and children of His beloved mother. The tenacious bond that connects us to her thus arises with the very origin of our condition as Christians. We entrust to her our children, so that they may encounter Christ, the sense and center of existence, and so that their youth may not be lost pursuing myths without truth and false joys. We entrust the suffering, the sick, the poor, who are still among us and await every day from everyone a little fraternity. We entrust the fate of our society, so that work may not be lacking for anyone, so that we never forget to live together in serenity and mutual respect, so that no one is ever denied the right to express themselves in real freedom, so that violence does not prevail, so that the culture of life is affirmed, so that the longing of men for peace is not disappointed. We all entrust ourselves to Mary, with our hopes and fears, with our yearnings for good and our inner defeats, with our intentions and our pains. Today, the Mother-who was given to us by a Crucified One-welcomes us all and reassures us. At a certain point, you will find (and it is a singular grace) that there is no better way to meet Christ and unite with Him than with Mary, a present, maternal, and living presence in the marvelous communion of the Saints in which Christ has inserted us. Christ has given the Madonna as Mother to each of us in the order of grace, and He has also given her to us as Mother of the Church. Is it not appropriate for the Mother to make her presence felt even through Apparitions? In any case, God has decided so. Marian apparitions serve precisely to remind and explain Divine Revelation. They add nothing to it. Does it seem sensible to say that the apparitions of the Madonna at Fatima are all works of the devil? Evangelicals, like all Protestants, have a fundamental fault. And it is to explain Scripture according to private interpretation contrary to what Scripture itself says they have received from the Church: "First of all, you must understand this: no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation, because no prophecy ever came by human will, but men and women moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God" (2 Peter 1:20-21). By doing so, they not only deprive believers of the right understanding of Sacred Scriptures but also of many precious goods, such as the intercession of Mary and the Saints, against the clear teaching of the Scriptures themselves.

I think Sheen got these ideas from C.S. Lewis

It sure looks like it

People deny the Pope.

You know, there is an actual major world religion (heavily favored as allies of convenience by nearly all forms of Marxists) that's been around for over a thousand years, which has its own alternate version of Jesus which it uses to try and get Christians to convert to it, and retells a good chunk of the Biblical stories in its own version, and has almost a direct inversion of Christian values in terms of enslxvxng women and proselytizing by the swxrd, etc., and seems almost as if designed from the ground up to sort of "re-do" Christianity in a way that's more calculated and optimized for the secular aims of a wxrld dxminating glxbal empire. In most of Europe it's illegal to criticize this religion, but practically mandatory to criticize Christianity, where you can get arrested for praying on a street corner because they've rxcially profiled you as a Christian instead of a member of this fxreign occxupying replacement religion, which the USCCB and the Pope himself are in favor of replacing the heart of Christendom with practitioners of. There's a candidate that fulfills most of these criteria if I ever heard one.

Indeed! Faith in Christ is to trust the Church He established to have a teaching authority, Holy Scripture and Sacred Traditions in a congregation of the faithfuls. The focal point of the Body of Christ, the Bride of Christ that guides us to Him so that we may not be lost. The church is the boat we ride with Christ towards our conversion to be humble sons and daughters of God worthy to be with Him in His kingdom. Christ is with us to calm the wind, the seas and the storm in this journey with the church and must not let fear and anxiety take hold of us, lest we think that the boat we are in with Christ is sinking. When that happens within us, that is where the church of the apes will take hold. That is what the devil wants. That he relentlessly attacks the bride of Christ so that the church of the apes will grow within us with Satan dragging us away from Christ and His church.

I think it was held that many of the Jews will be converted by the preaching of Enoch and Elias during great tribulation, not prior to it. So this would happen DURING the reign of the Antichrist.
