    [Catholic Caucus] Francis Loves RupnikA few days ago, Francis sent a mobile phone video to the 16th Mariological Congress in Aparecida, Brazil, in which he approaches a reproduction of a Marian mosaic by Father Rupnik, located in a hall of Santa Marta, and explains in detail the meaning of the work (1:20). IlSismografo calls this behaviour of Francis “simply bewildering.”

    Proverbs 16:18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.The stage was set for the tribe of Benjamin to fight to the death protecting their rights from their religious zealot brothers Israel demanding justice. After all, the tribe of Benjamin was on the “right side of history” in elevating Sodomy and casting off the chords of their pearl clutching Biblical heritage. Sodomy was something, perhaps the only thing, worth dying for. No one was going to tell them what to do, hold them accountable, shackle them with Biblcal restrictions, or come to their house and push them...

    Proverbs 16:5 Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD: though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.The Judges 19–21 story continues with the eleven tribes of Israel (minus the Tribe of Benjamin) convening a meeting together at Mizpeh (near Jerusalem) to discuss the account of Gibeah and determine what to do. The Levite was brought to recapitulate what transpired in Gibeah in the presence of Israel’s leaders. After hearing the account the eleven tribes gathered together as one man to bring justice to those responsible for this heinous crime…Judges 20:11 So all...

    Proverbs 16:18 Pride goeth before destruction, and an haughty spirit before a fall.Now that June “Pride Month” has been institutionalized nationally and indelibly etched into American culture it is critical for Americans to understand the Sodom and Gamorrah story of Genesis 19. There is another Bible story just as critical to understand; Judges 19–21, the story of the Tribe of Benjamin descending into Sodomy. The of Tribe of Benjamin, unlike Sodom and Gamorrah, was not a gentile demon worshipping nation devoid of Biblical Truth. They had come out of Egypt with Israel by God’s hand, had faithful leaders like Moses...

    Amid a major power grab by the United Nations World Health Organization (WHO) seeking to further empower the global agency, lawmakers and leaders across the United States are stepping up efforts to protect self-government, national sovereignty and the rights of all Americans. In fact, many in Congress and beyond say it is time for the U.S. government to defund and even withdraw from the WHO once again.But critics are working on ways to fight back. The Sovereignty Coalition, formed to fight the WHO assault on self-government, brings together a broad alliance of conservative leaders, organizations, and lawmakers united in the...

    Leanna Crawford’s story behind her latest song immediately captured my attention. She related a time from her childhood when she saw fireflies light up her yard at night. Her dad responded to her amazement by asking, “How can you not see the Creator in all this?” The song that came as a result of her father’s question, “How Can You Not See God?” has become a favorite of mine. How can people not see God in the beauty and wonders of creation? You might guess where my mind goes when I hear this question; I wonder, “How can you not...

    I’m in no mood to mince words here, nor is there any good reason to. The truth about our nation’s political and cultural upheavals needs to be plainly stated. I’ll start with the burner on low and turn up the heat as I go. I think I’ll lose some of you before you’re done reading this. As Jack Nicholson’s character thundered in the movie, A Few Good Men, “You can’t handle the truth!” But hey - that’s the nature of truth. It always divides. Here’s the understatement of the year: “America is in a full-blown mess.” From every vantage point:...

Introduction by Michael Matt“Rome will lose the Faith and become seat of the Antichrist.” These foreboding words form the most controversial part of the message of Our Lady of La Salette, delivered in 1846 to little Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat in La Salette-Fallavaux, France.Though the message includes not a few hope-filled promises of heavenly intervention and even divine protection, it is described as “Our Lady’s Apocalypse” for a reason. It is not for the faint of heart. Nevertheless, it was officially approved by the Church, and...

Imagine, however, if, just by promoting the biblical view of marriage, you could face jail time.

    In 2018, I wrote a series of articles called God’s Perfect Numbers, based on the numbers 3, 7, 10, and 12 and their biblical significance or representation (https://www.raptureready.com/2018/10/19/gods-perfect-number-part-1-by-randy-nettles/). In this article, I will expound upon one of these “perfect” numbers. The number 12 signifies the perfection of rule or government. “It is found as a multiple in all that has to do with rule. The sun which rules the day; and the moon and stars which govern the night, do so by their passage through the 12 signs of the Zodiac which completes the great circle of the heavens of...

    By most standards, 19-year-old Cindy Collins was a naïve college student when she faced an unplanned pregnancy. It was 1973 and she was unaware of anything outside her immediate sphere of daily living. She didn’t know much about the women’s movement or the effort to legalize abortion nationwide through legislation. “All I knew at the time was that I was confused and afraid,” Collins told Live Action News. “Here I was in a relationship with my first boyfriend and just a freshman in college. My roommate suggested I go to Planned Parenthood and they would help me.” A survivor of...

More than 3,000 lawsuits have been filed against the Catholic Church in California under a 2019 state law that also extended the statute of limitations to allow all alleged victims of sexual abuse to...
