Archbishop Fulton Sheen once said that if you want to discover the true Church, look at the true accounts of history to discover which Church has been the most persecuted in the last 2000 years. John Henry Cardinal Newman once said, “To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant.”
The first target of Satan, and of his main organization on earth, the Freemasons, is to destroy the Catholic Church. Only the Catholic Church has the most powerful presence of the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. When Bergoglio will finally arrive to the point of forcing all Catholic priests and bishops to no longer celebrate a valid Mass, so that there will no longer be this Real Presence of Jesus, then we will see the true meaning of the words: “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’ spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand” (Mt 24:15).
Those who understand what the Eucharist really is, the infinite God under the appearance of bread and wine, will realize that this sacrilege is the ultimate “DESOLATING SACRILEGE” (Mt 24:15; Mk 13:14; 2Thess 2:3-4; Dan 9:27; 11:31; 12:11)!!!
Writing about the second coming of Jesus Christ in the second letter to the Thessalonians, St. Paul tells us: “Let no one deceive you in any way; for that day will not come, unless the rebellion comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of perdition, 4 who opposes and exalts himself against every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, proclaiming himself to be God” (2Thess 2:3-4). “And you know what is restraining him now so that he may be revealed in his time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains it will do so until he is out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, and the Lord Jesus will slay him with the breath of his mouth and destroy him by his appearing and his coming” (2Thess 2:6-8).
Above all what is “RESTRAINING” the “man of lawlessness” is the presence of Jesus Christ as the Truth (Jn 14:6) and His real presence in the Most Holy Eucharist of the Holy Mass; “the continual burnt offering” (Dan 8:11; 12:11), will be taken away, and the “sacrifice and offering” will cease (Dan 9:27).

Cardinal Newman recognized the obvious difference between the current Roman Church and the early church. He was too deep in history not to see it. He had to develop his famous idea of doctrinal development to explain it. He argued that all the later Roman doctrines and practices were “hidden” in the church from the beginning. They were made explicit over time under the guidance of the Spirit. But the problem that many Roman Catholics fail to see is that there is a difference between development and contradiction. It is one thing to use different language to teach something the church has always taught (e.g., the “Trinity”). It is another thing altogether to begin teaching something that the church always denied (e.g., papal supremacy or infallibility). Those doctrines in particular were built on multitudes of forgeries.

Cardinal Manning solved the problem by treating any appeal to history as treason. He called for blind faith in the papacy and magisterium. Such might have been possible had the fruits of the papacy over 1,500 years not consistently been the precise opposite of the fruit of the Spirit (Matt. 7:16).

Cardinal Newman said that to be deep in history is to cease to be a Protestant. The truth is that to be deep in real history, as opposed to Rome’s whitewashed, revisionist, and often forged history, is to cease to be a Roman Catholic.

Well, that would be the Huguenots, or was it the Waldensians, or one of the others??? Or how about the Jews??? Catholics were the persecutors, not the persecuted...

John Henry Newman was a flaming homosexual...Guess he had it all figured out tho, eh???

I doubt that's true, but it's not a bad idea...

That propaganda is absolutely ridiculous...I, and all other Christians have the most powerful presence of the Body, Blood, Soul, Spirit and Divinity of Jesus Christ within our own bodies...Christians don't need to go eat a cracker, we have Jesus, right now...
