RE: the Great Apostasy

Sounds like you have read Fr. Stefano Gobbi’s messages. I agree this is the time. The Blessed Mother said that the evil one would have to think he has defeated the Church in order for her to pull the rug out from under him. Recalling this gives me peace, although I am not really sure how faithful Catholics need to respond when our Pope can no longer be trusted.

I disagree that Begoglio is a legitimate pope. Pope Benedict XVI (Joseph Ratzinger) attempted to bifurcate the papacy, by keeping for himself the munus contemplative aspect of the office, but disposing himself of the governing aspect. This cannot be done, and it is a violation of Cannon 188.

Benedict is still wearing the papl vestments - no other “resigned” pope in Church history has done that.

Benedict is holding the papal title of “pope emeritus” - again, no provision in Catholic doctrine for such position, nor has such practice ever occurred heretofore in Church history.

Benedict remains in the papal residence - same issue.

Since a bifurcation of the papacy cannot be legitimate, then it makes Benedict’s resignation objectively flawed - and thus null and void, per Cannon 188.

Therefore, Benedict XVI is STILL the legitimate pope - and Bergoglio is nothing but an imposter, an anti-pope. Which means that none of his edicts, decisions, encyclicals, canonizations, etc. hold any validity. They are all equally null and void.

I strongly suggest you refrain from calling Jorge Bergoglio “pope” - because, in doing so, you lend legitimacy to the lie that may result in uncountable souls being damned for eternity.

BTW - yes. And Father Gruner (RIP). And Ann Barnhardt. And the homilies of the Traditional Catholic priests within “the Resistance” movement that came about when SSPX Bishop Felay betrayed the legacy and mission Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre.

She DID??

I've missed that in the NT.
