Satan hates priests and seeks above all to get to us. Jesus remarked laconically and pointedly, quoting from Zechariah (13:7), Strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered. This is why Satan hates priests and seeks to topple them. Corruptio optime pessima (The corruption of the best is the worst.)

We have seen this happen with several outstanding priests.

Pray for all priests and ministers.

I have a non-Catholic friend who actually had a satanic infestation in her home and one of her daughters was being constantly attacked. I don't have time to go into detail, but she agreed to have my deacon go over to her house and bless it. Meanwhile, I explained to her that it is her role and duty to keep her family surrounded in prayer and to pray for them constantly. God gave mothers a special sensitivity.

Now, her home is free and her daughter is no longer bothered. She told me that she now goes into each bedroom when no one else is home and she prays for her family's safety mentally, physically and spiritually.

“We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has gone through. I do not think that wide circles of the American society or wide circles of the Christian community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, of the Gospel versus the anti-Gospel.”

~ Karol Cardinal Wojtyla, who became Saint John Paul the Great {Karol Cardinal Wojtyla, “Notable & Quotable,” “Wall Street Journal” (Nov. 9, 1978), 30.}

“Satan hates priests and seeks above all to get to us.”

“priests” are not a Christian Church office in the NT.
Every believer is a priest.

Noted that the author had to go back to the OT to find a passage NOT about priests, but about Christ, to make up support for an unbiblical idea.

This notwithstanding, mothers rock. Christian Mothers are amazing. Praying Christian Mothers can move mountains.

She told me that the Lord had told her that Satan wanted me and all priests and that she had better pray for me.

Every Catholic, especially those who tend to complain that our clergy is not doing its job, might copy this article and place it in clear view as a reminder, for Our Lady of Akita [in an apparition] very much agreed:

"With the Rosary, pray for the Pope, the bishops and priests." -Our Lady of Akita

And nowhere does Mary state that's a suggestion!

Perfect article, Salvation. Can you hear the hum of our printer? Thank you.

" We have seen this happen with several outstanding priests.

Amen! Fr. Benedict Groeschel, God rest him, got arrested for praying for life, both before clinics and at Notre Dame when the potUS spoke there: he, Ambassador Allan Keyes, and Father Pavone, went right back to ND, and were arrested a second time!
And how blessed in Heaven must be the parents of priests and religious- and of lay people with the courage to stick to their Faith and principles, despite attacks by the evil one and his cohort.
