Boeselager said. “He was asked, I supposed, nobody of us was present, but in a pastoral way [by Pope Francis] to consider resignation. And Grand Master graciously offered his resignation to the sovereign council.”

So says the hypocritical Boeselagar, who himself refused to tender his resignation upon his superior's request for reasons of supporting immoral conduct

“People decided not to help us because they thought we were fighting against the pope,” La Rochefoucauld added “But it was not true. We need to restore the trust.”

It's the opposite La Rocehfoucauld. It's why people have been withholding donations: because you are supporting immorality.

So the Pope is asking the Knights of Malta to held Islam invade Europe. This is beyond bizarre.

St. Pius V and Our Lady of Victories, pray for us.

Good. So they are going to go to the “home” countries of the disposed and kill off the bad guys (islam I assume) instead of importing all the filth that allowed their “home” to be run by “religious” morons, retards, inbred and islamic dung.

I’m a lifelong Catholic who has completely given up on the Church. I cannot stand Dope Francis and his politics. Plain and simple. They’ll never get another dime of my money nor a minute at Mass. And I feel great about it.

Malta has been turned against the very civilization it used its strategic location to protect for 1,000 years?

I can see being selective in your distribution of money, but to deprive yourself of the Mass? Go to please God and in search of sanctifying yourself. To quote Anne ROche Muggeridge—”DOn’t let the b*stards drive you out.”

In the seige of Malta in 1551 the Knights of Malta were abandoned to their fate when a massive muslim army under Suleiman the Magnificent showed up on their shores to wipe them out on their way to Rome. Outnumbered 8 to 1, their 6,000 men stood against as many as 48,000 Turks. When they looked to the Pope and Kings of Europe for assistance they received mostly silence and a small relief force of just 600 men. They would have to face this horde alone.

But face it they did, from the end of May and all through the Summer they fought fiercely with massive losses on both sides until the Turks, broken in spirit, prepared to leave Malta and return home. This was when the lords of Europe finally arrived with a substantial releif force of 8,000 men and fell upon the retreating muslims. The Turks fled Malta finally on September 11, of all dates.

What would Grandmaster La Vallette think of his order now being forced by a Pope to assist the invading Muslim hordes into Europe?

Knights of Malta: Exclusive Interview with Rick Joyner

Did you know there are several religious organizations claiming to be the original Knights of Malta? Today on TRUNEWS, Rick Wiles is joined by Reverend Rick Joyner, the President of MorningStar Ministries, and a member of one of these competing factions. In this exclusive interview, Rick Joyner explains his participation in the Florida Priory of the Knights Hospitallers of the Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem Knights of Malta, The Ecumenical Order, and provides never before heard background to a group often misconstrued with the official Catholic order.

I think that he would think that some one is trying to give Honorius a run for his money

Did you know there were no prots in existence when the Catholic order of the Knights of Malta was established?

Which reminds me:

The difference between the Dominicans and the S.J.s:

THe Dominicans were founded to combat the Albigensians, the Jebbies to combat Protestantism. Have you seen an Alibigensians lately?

nor a minute at Mass. And I feel great about it.

Our Lord was on the Cross for three hours for you. Worship Him at Holy Mass in spite of the stupid human tricks that are going on around us. He will give you the strength and the peace to endure to the end.

Amen

We each have a fox hole to man. For Pete’s sake, man it!

The namby pambies are abandoning their position and proud of their cowardice. Stunning, really.

The siege took place in 1565 and it was a different era then. I choose to say no more, except to pray that God may guide the Church in these evil days.

1565, you are correct. Sorry. 1551 was the year of an earlier, smaller invasion that the Turks abandoned quickly in favor of other targets. Sorry.

So, THIS is why Francis wanted to take over the Order.

Vestiges of Catharism abound - Camisards, Quakers and Protestants.
