In January 2015, I, Father Joseph Dwight, posted (http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2015/01/spiritualfood-1501.html; http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2015/02/spiritual-food-1502.html) and sent the
following two emails to over 100 people in the Neocatecumenal Way for whom I had tried to help
for about ten years here in Italy, from 2005 to 2015.

The Neocatecumenal Mass
First email of January 2015:

We have been duped, manipulated and brainwashed with the greatest sophistication of mental
manipulation in the history of the world. Thus many are ignorant and innocent of what they have
been led into. But when they are confronted with at least one person who succeeded in pulling
himself/herself out of the very strong current, a person who left the stampeding herd, toward the
cult of man instead of the cult of God, toward the beautiful but empty lies of the father of lies (Jn
8:44), instead of going toward the way, and the truth, and the life (Jn 14:6), they are then
before a fundamental choice, to seek the Truth outside of their own heads, or to take the much
easier way of continuing what they have slid into which is what just about everyone around them
is doing, to be politically correct, which does not lead to the absolute and saving Truth Who is
Jesus Christ. Many also have let their hearts become attached to certain things not of God,
including glory before men especially in the Church, and have push aside the inspirations and
graces of God with many small compromises which are always accompanied by more and more
blindness to the real situation from Gods perfect point of view.
It is interesting that years ago there was a psychological study done in which a high school
teacher told everyone to raise their right hand, but in the classroom of 30 students there were 29
who were told beforehand to raise their left hand. The one who did not know about this began to
raise his right hand but when they saw the 29 who raised their left hand, decided to raise his left
hand. Then one of the 29 put his hand down and raised his right hand. When the one alone saw
this, he decided to raise his right hand also. After many similar tests, the results were very
conclusive that when just one person has the courage to follow what is right, it gives great
courage for others who have been intimidated by the mass mob stampeding away from the
uncomfortable, but saving Truth which is accompanied by the cross of Christ.
Somehow I believe that God has given me the grace during my life to seek the inconvenient Truth
outside of my head and to be willing to take the risk to stand up even when I was very often totally
alone in what I had discovered and what I had to do. I received a lot of this part of my character
from my Dad, but when I realized that my Dad had slid down the wrong direction, God gave me
the grace to follow the Truth even though I suffered greatly by being rejected by my parents. Visit:

I have been in the Church all my life and thus needless to say I have suffered the most from my
spouse, the Church. I have been betrayed and abandoned by priests, loosing my community or
parish or friends; twice I suffered a difficult depression after such experiences. These experiences
offered me many opportunities to struggle for the Truth which gives true freedom. Visit: The

Each time we suffer in these difficult situations, and we persevere in praying and not abandoning
God after His pruning (Jn 15:2; Prov 3:12; Heb 12:5-6), our hearts are enlarged and we are more
and more free of ourselves and of our hidden egoisms so as to have more room in our hearts for
God and His graces. This is the experience of all of the saints.
Very recently (a few days ago) I realized that God was asking me to make another painful cut in
my life. This is also the reason why this edition of my Spiritual Food is a little late this month. To
describe this well for you, I will now offer you the email that I sent, only a few days ago, to over
100 members of the Neocatecumenal Way here in Italy.

The following is the email I sent to over 100 members of the Neocatecumenal Way here in Italy
on January 19, 2015:

Dear brothers and sisters of the Neocatecumenal communities,
I have been helping out with the Holy Masses and the Penitential celebrations with you for almost
10 years. I had mentioned to you a few times that I knew that your statutes had been approved a
few years ago, but the way in which you celebrated the Holy Mass was not yet approved and that
Pope Benedict had formed a commission to examine the Holy Mass celebrated in the small
groups Saturday evening among the members of the Neocatecumenal Way. I believed up to
only a few days ago that this commission had not finished their work before Pope Benedict
had left the papacy. A few days ago I discovered that instead the commission had finished their
work and the three founders of the Neocatecumenal Way - Kiko Argello, Carmen Hernandez
and Father Mario Pezzi had received a letter on December 1, 2005 written by Cardinal Arinze,
the prefect of the Vatican Congregation for the Liturgy with a list of decisions of the Holy Father
to which they were to obey.
I discovered that Kiko Argello, Carmen Hernandez and Father Mario Pezzi did not obey the
letter sent by Cardinal Francis Arinze. I was about to offer my decision that I must obey the
decisions of the Holy Father Saturday evening at the Masses I celebrated for two groups,
January 17, 2015, when a catechist, for more than 20 years, told me that after the letter of Arinze,
the Neocatecumenal Mass was approved by Pope Benedict. And so I did not offer my decision in
my printed letter Saturday evening (attached).
When I tried to find this approbation of the Holy Father on the Internet, I discovered that what had
happened was that the pontifical council for the laity headed by Cardinal Stanislaw Rylko had
prepared the text for a decree of blanket approval of all the liturgical and extra-liturgical
celebrations of the Neocatechumenal Way, to be made public January 20, 2012 on the occasion
of a meeting scheduled between the Pope and the Way. The decree was redacted according to
the guidelines of the congregation for divine worship, headed by Cardinal Antonio Caizares
Llovera. The founders and leaders of the Way, Francisco "Kiko" Argello and Carmen Hernndez,
were told about it and joyfully told their followers about the imminent approval. All unbeknownst
to the Pope.
Benedict XVI found out about the text of the decree a few days before the meeting on January
20. He found it illogical and mistaken. He ordered that it be scrapped and rewritten according to
his guidelines.
(http://chiesa.espresso.repubblica.it/articolo/1350217?).
In the Address of His Holiness Benedict XVI to the Community of the Neocatechumenal Way,
January 20, 2012, Pope Benedict gave a genuine lecture almost an ultimatum that the
celebrations in the small communities must be regulated by the liturgical books that must be
faithfully followed, as he had ordered already in the letter of Cardinal Arinze more than 6 years
earlier.
(http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/speeches/2012/january/documents/hf_benxvi_spe_20120120_cammino-neocatecumenale_en.html).
Thus, I ask you to read my decision in my letter (attached) which I had intended to give last
Saturday, January 17, 2015, but instead I offer now after having discovered that the
neocatecumenal Mass had not been approved. Toward the end of this letter I offered a
proposal, my idea.
Dear brothers and sisters, The Truth will make you free! (Jn 8:32), non only in this short life,
but for all eternity!

The following is the printed letter that I had planned to give out Saturday evening at two
neocatecumenal Masses, January 17, 2015:
January 17, 2015
I have been helping out with the Holy Masses and the Penitential celebrations with you for almost
10 years. I see a lot of good will and good fruits. Precisely for this reason I offered myself even to
the point of offering two Holy Masses every Saturday evening with you, and the Penitential
celebrations whenever you called me.
I had mentioned to you a few times that I knew that your statutes had been approved a few years
ago, but the way in which you celebrated the Holy Mass was not yet approved and that Pope
Benedict had formed a commission to examine the Holy Mass celebrated in the small groups
Saturday evening among the members of the Neocatecumenal Way. I believed up to only a few
days ago that this commission had not yet finished their work before Pope Benedict had left
the papacy. A few days ago I discovered that instead the commission had finished their work and
the three founders of the Neocatecumenal Way - Kiko Argello, Carmen Hernandez and Father
Mario Pezzi had received a letter on December 1, 2005 written by Cardinal Arinze, the prefect
of the Vatican Congregation for the liturgy with a list of decisions of the Holy Father to which
they were to obey.

Of the six points detailing the popes directives, only one permits the Neocatechumenals to
continue what they are doing. This regards placing the exchange of peace before the offertory, a
traditional practice in the Christian liturgy which is still in use today, for example, in the Ambrosian
Rite celebrated in the archdiocese of Milan. All the other points require the Neocatechumenal
Way to eliminate a large portion of its liturgical innovations.
Our Holy Mother Church seeks to help and protect the ecclesial movements in order not to
loose the gifts that the Holy Spirit has given to each movement. Being part of the Focolare
Movement since 1986, many times I heard from the mouth of Chiara Lubich that she followed
immediately and totally every small indication from Pope John Paul II, even if she had to change
her important programs. Like the saints and good religious, Chiara Lubich trusted totally in God,
not in herself, and thus she believed that if she obeyed the Pope, her superior, after she
expressed well her thoughts, even if she was not in agreement with the decision of the Pope, she
did the holy will of God. If the Pope truly made a mistake, according to God, the Pope will most
likely change his idea, precisely because Chiara Lubich obeyed. Humility and obedience cause
the graces of God to gush forth! If what Chiara Lubich believed was right was truly right according
to God, God will take care of the problem, and to change the idea of her superior, in Gods own
time. The first criteria of discernment regarding private revelations is precisely humility and
obedience (Visit: The Catholic Church and Private Revelation; http://priv-rev.blogspot.com).
Certainly, the responsibility of superiors is great! Visit: The Great Responsibility of Religious
Leaders (http://josephdwight.wordpress.com/2014/08/07/great-responsibility/).
At the beginning of a movement the Church offers a period of observation as well as certain
verbal authorizations, as Pope John Paul did with the leaders of the Neocatechumenal Way. Then
afterwards Mother Church guides us for our true good and for the true good of the ecclesial
movement. It is similar to Jesus Who received all, did many miracles and healings, but slowly led
all those, who were willing, with Him toward Jerusalem, toward Calvary, and finally to the
crucifixion where there was only the Mother of Jesus, Saint John the apostle and some women.
Jesus leads all those of good will toward Calvary with the cross, toward trust in God not in
themselves, which is the only way to overcome our egoisms in order to love God and neighbor in
an authentic way. The Truth will make you free! (Jn 8:32).
The recall of Benedict XVI regards the ways in which the neocatecumenal groups celebrate the
Mass. The Pope wants them to conform to what is prescribed in the liturgical norms valid for the
whole Church.
I was surprised when I discovered that Kiko Argello, Carmen Hernandez and Father Mario
Pezzi did not obey the letter in which were articulated the directives of the Pope. Their act of
partial obedience is in a letter which they wrote to the Pope on January 17, 2006. They limit
themselves in fact to thank the Pope for having conceded to them another two years of time. And
they return to defend their way of doing the communion. They underline that to do the communion
in this way is an essential instrument to convert the ones further away from the faith: to abandon
this would compromise their mission. On this crucial point of the communion they indicated that
they want to follow their way. It is in fact the diffuse opinion among the neocatecumenals that the
letter of Arinze was something provisionary, modifiable, a simple instrumentum laboris, and that
in the end their practice will be substantially approved. This opinion persists even after the recall
of Benedict XVI regarding the rite of the Mass, in his talk given to the neocatecumenals on
January 12 2006.
In any case, this is not the thought neither of Arinze nor of the Pope. In an interview on
February 15, 2006, on Vatican Radio, the cardinal prefect for the congregation for the liturgy
reasserted that the letter is the conclusion to everything. In this way he explained the process
from which the letter originated:
The letter flowed out of what emerged from the examination of this congregation of how the
Neocatecumenal Way celebrates the Holy Mass for many years. To exam this we had a mixed
commission among people nominated from the Neocatecumenal Way and people nominated by
our congregation. In the discussions emerged many practices which they do during the Mass,
and many emerged which were not according to the approved books. This is the background.
Everything was examined in many sessions by the mixed commission during a period of two
years or more. And there was also a discussion among seven cardinals of the Roman curia,
desired by the Holy Father, who examined everything. Thus, this letter is the conclusion to
everything.
BEHOLD THE LETTER WRITTEN BY CARDINAL ARINZA:
"I am to inform you of the Holy Fathers decisions..."
Congregatio de Cultu Divino et Disciplina Sacramentorum

Prot. 2520/03/L
From Vatican City, December 1, 2005
To the esteemed Mr. Kiko Argello, Ms. Carmen Hernandez, and Rev. Father Mario Pezzi,
Following the conversations with this Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the
Sacraments on the celebration of the Most Holy Eucharist in the communities of the
Neocatechumenal Way, in keeping with the guidelines issued in the meeting with you on
November 11 of this year, I am to inform you of the Holy Fathers decisions.
In the celebration of the Holy Mass, the Neocatechumenal Way shall accept and follow the
liturgical books approved by the Church, without omitting or adding anything. Furthermore, in
regard to some elements the guidelines and clarifications are emphasized as follows:
1. Sunday is the Dies Domini as the Servant of God Pope John Paul II wished to illustrate in the
Apostolic Letter on the Lords Day. Therefore the Neocatechumenal Way must enter into dialogue
with the diocesan bishop in order to make it clear that the community of the Neocatechumenal
Way is incorporated into the parish even in the context of the liturgical celebrations. At least one
3 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
Sunday per month, the communities of the Neocatechumenal Way must participate in the Holy
Mass of the parish community.
2. As for any admonitions issued before the readings, these must be brief. Adherence must also
be shown to what is set out in the Institutio Generalis Missalis Romani (nn. 105 and 128) and to
the Praenotanda of the Ordo Lectionum Missae (nn. 15, 19, 38, 42).
3. The homily, because of its nature and importance, is reserved to the priest or deacon (cf.
Codex Iuris Canonici, can. 767 1). As for the occasional contribution of testimonies on the part
of the lay faithful, the proper places and methods for these are indicated in the Interdicasterial
Instruction Ecclesiae de Mysterio, which was approved in specific form by Pope John Paul II
and published on August 15, 1997. In this document, sections 2 and 3 of article 3 read as follows:
2 - It is permitted to have a brief instruction that helps explain better the liturgy that is being
celebrated, and even, in exceptional circumstances, a few testimonies, as long as these conform
to the liturgical norms, are offered on the occasion of Eucharistic liturgies celebrated on particular
days (for seminarians, the sick, etc.), and are thought truly helpful as an illustration of the regular
homily delivered by the celebrating priest. These instructions and testimonies must not assume
characteristics that might cause them to be confused with the homily.
3 - The possibility of dialogue during the homily (cf. Directorium de Missis cum Pueris, no. 48)
can be used occasionally and with prudence by the celebrating minister as a means of exposition,
which does not transfer to others the duty of preaching.
Careful attention must also be paid to the Instruction Redemptionis Sacramentum, no. 74.
4. On the exchange of peace, permission is granted to the Neocatechumenal Way to continue

using the indult already granted, pending further instructions.
5. On the manner of receiving Holy Communion, a period of transition (not exceeding two years)
is granted to the Neocatechumenal Way to pass from the widespread manner of receiving Holy
Communion in its communities (seated, with a cloth-covered table placed at the center of the
church instead of the dedicated altar in the sanctuary) to the normal way in which the entire
Church receives Holy Communion. This means that the Neocatechumenal Way must begin to
adopt the manner of distributing the Body and Blood of Christ that is provided in the liturgical
books.
6. The Neocatechumenal Way must also make use of the other Eucharistic Prayers contained in
the missal, and not only Eucharistic Prayer II.
In short, the Neocatechumenal Way, in its celebration of the Holy Mass, should follow the
approved liturgical books, keeping in mind what is laid out above under the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,
and 6.
Acknowledging the favors that the Lord has bestowed upon the Church through the many
activities of the Neocatechumenal Way, I take this occasion to extend to you my best regards.

IN CONSCIENCE, BEFORE GOD, I CAN NO LONGER CELEBRATE A MASS NOT

APPROVED BY THE CHURCH. In these last several years I have begun to understand more
and more, in my meditations each day and before our Eucharistic Lord one hour everyday for the
last 14 years, the greatness of the Eucharist, the substantial presence of Jesus, the Son of God,
in Person, in every smallest particle of bread. I also began to discover and to understand how
much the devil has worked, with great astuteness and subtleness, in the Catholic Church, to
cause to diminish the faith, love and reverential humility before the infinite God in the Eucharist,
the source and summit of the Christian life. (Vat. II: LG 11; CCC 1324). A year ago I had written
an article (in Italian): Il Dio Infinito Fra Noi (http://cibo-spir.blogspot.it/2014/01/il-dio-infinitofra-noi.html).
4 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
I am always willing to help out with the penitential celebrations.
I would like to offer a proposal, my idea. Even though I am totally convinced that it is very
important to obey this letter from Cardinal Arinze, in the letter of Kiko, Carmen and Father Mario,
which they wrote to the Pope on January 17, 2006, they underlined that to do the communion in
this way is an essential instrument to convert the ones further away from the faith: to abandon
this would compromise their mission. The communities which are already on the way for more
than 5 or 10 years, it seems to me that they are no longer the ones further away from the faith.
And thus if a few of the communities are willing to obey the letter of Cardinal Arinze, in agreement
with their Pastor (where they are accommodated) and with their catechists, I am very willing to
celebrate the Holy Mass in the way approved by Holy Mother Church with you.
In the Beginning of the Year Convivience 2013-2014, Kiko said at the end of the ecclesial
catechesis: It is a very important the point of the catechism on politics, it is a very important
point. There are those who think that history is immanent, that we are going toward a better
world, with more democracy, more progress, and we can say that this is false! We are going
toward the apostasy, toward the antichrist, as the Book of Revelation and the Catechism say.
I believe in this very difficult period, with less prayer than ever and more sin and more indifference
than ever, Satan disguises himself as an angel of light (2Cor 11:14) better than ever. And
thus, it is very important to remain faithful to the Magisterium of the Church. The Church is the
handmaid of the Truth, not the Author of the Truth! Who Decides The Truth? (http://spirfood.blogspot.it/2014/06/who-decides-truth.html). The work of the devil will infiltrate even the
Church in such a way that one will see CARDINALS OPPOSING CARDINALS, bishops against
other bishops. the Church will be full of those who accept compromise (Our Lady of
Akita, Japan; October 13, 1973, the anniversary of the great miracle of the sun at Fatima,
October 13, 1917)!
In the Act of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary for the associated priests of the
Marian Movement for Priests, one reads: Above all, we wish to be united with the Holy Father
and the hierarchy, firmly adhering to all their directives, so as thus to set up a barrier to the
growing confrontation directed against the Magisterium, that threatens the very foundation of
the Church.
Dear brothers and sisters, let us help each other (Heb 3:13) to not gently slide (full of joy, Diary
of St. Faustina, no. 153) into apostasy, with compromises, before the man of lawlessness is
revealed, the son of perdition (2Thess 2:3-4)!

The following is the second email (http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2015/02/spiritual-food-1502.html)

sent in February 2015:
Dear friends of the Neocatecumenal Way,
Since I tried to serve the Neocatecumenal communities for 10 years, naturally a few people
spoke to me in person, by telephone and by email about my decision: In conscience, before
God, I can no longer celebrate a Mass not approved by the Church. Some did not understand
this my decision; I offer here more clarification.
One can find the first email, last month, about the Neocatecumenal Mass at:
(http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2015/01/spiritual-food-1501.html)
My fundamental reply is what I already wrote (http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2015/01/spiritualfood-1501.html). That is, even if I do not understand all of the motives of the list of decisions of
the Holy Father in the letter sent by Cardinal Francis Arinze on December 1, 2005, I trust in the
Vicar of Christ, and I obey the decisions of the Holy Father. Thus, I will try to explain at least a
little of what I understood in the guidance and wisdom of Pope Benedict, and in particular, in the
Liturgical Books which guide the whole Catholic Church in the liturgical celebrations, above all
the most important one, the Holy Mass!
As I already wrote: The recall of Benedict XVI regards the ways in which the neocatecumenal
groups celebrate the Mass. The Pope wants them to conform to what is prescribed in the
liturgical norms valid for the whole Church. In the Address of His Holiness Benedict XVI to
the Community of the Neocatechumenal Way, January 20, 2012, Pope Benedict gave a genuine
lecture almost an ultimatum that the celebrations in the small communities must be
regulated by the liturgical books that must be faithfully followed, as he had ordered
already in the letter of Cardinal Arinze more than 6 years earlier.
Also Pope John Paul II gave the same recall to the Neocatecumens:
Celebrate the Eucharist and, above all, Easter, with true piety, with great dignity, with love for the
liturgical rites of the Church, with exact observance of the established norms by the
competent authority, with the will of communion with all the brothers (In Italian: Osservatore
Romano, 11 febbraio 1983; http://www.geocities.ws/Athens/Delphi/6919/OR110283.htm).
As I already indicated, the attitude of the saints was to trust the Pope, to seek to under stand
5 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
the thought and desire of the Vicar of Christ, INSTEAD of seeking, in a perhaps cunning way,
ways to get around the orders of the superior, or to seek in everyway possible to justify the way of
doing things not in harmony with the order of the superior. Thus I will not try to explain in a
casuistic way the motive for which Pope Benedict did not approve the Neocatecumenal Mass
from the point of view of the Liturgical Books, but rather I will try to indicate what I understood of
the wisdom of the Liturgical Books in general.
One can find easily the Liturgical books on the Web; I offer two of the most important ones:
The General Instruction of the Roman Missal
(http://www.liturgyoffice.org.uk/Resources/GIRM/Documents/GIRM.pdf)
Redemptionis Sacramentum
(http://www.vatican.va/roman_curia/congregations/ccdds/documents
/rc_con_ccdds_doc_20040423_redemptionis-sacramentum_en.html)
These Liturgical Books offer certain matters to be observed or to be avoided regarding the
Most Holy Eucharist for the Church in the whole world. Beyond the normal liturgical norms, one
finds explanations when a Priest or a Bishop must make an exception according to the needs of
the situation. For example in a small parish the Priest must distribute the Eucharist by himself,
whereas in a parish in Huntington Beach, California, where I worked for one year (1990-1991),
there were about 1000 people at each Mass with one Priest, and thus there are the explanations
in the liturgical books when one can apply the exceptions to the norms in order to guide the Priest
of Bishop in order to maintain as much reverence as possible before the Most Holy Eucharist. Or,
for example, the norms explain where to put the Tabernacle in a church where there is very little
tourism and where there is a lot of tourism, etc., always with the goal of maintaining as much
reverence as possible before the Most Holy Eucharist. I am the Lord your God, you shall
have no other gods before me (Ex 20:2-5; CCC 2083-2141). You shall worship the Lord your
God and Him only shall you serve (Mt 4:10), not men!
In the liturgical books there are norms about the importance of the sanctuary and that
The Priest may give the sign of peace to the ministers but always remains within the sanctuary,
so as not to disturb the celebration. There are explanations when one can apply an exception to
use a normal table to celebrate the Holy Mass while the norm is to use an altar in the
sanctuary as dignified as possible to celebrate the most important celebration on the face of the
earth. Is this not what the document of Cardinal Arinze, ordered by the Pope, said?
5. On the manner of receiving Holy Communion, a period of transition (not exceeding two years)
is granted to the Neocatechumenal Way to pass from the widespread manner of receiving Holy
Communion in its communities (seated, with a cloth-covered table placed at the center of the
church INSTEAD OF THE DEDICATED ALTAR IN THE SANCTUARY) to the normal way in
which the entire Church receives Holy Communion. This means that the Neocatechumenal Way
must begin to adopt the manner of distributing the Body and Blood of Christ that is provided in the
liturgical books.
There is always the tendency to NOT maintain the cult or worship of the Creator, but to slid
toward the cult or worship of creatures in the Holy Mass. It is nice to be together! A community
of believers helps a lot to persevere in the faith, if the community leads us toward God,
TOWARD THE CREATOR! One also feels good to be esteemed by others around us in the
community and in the Church. For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God (Jn
12:43). HOW CAN YOU BELIEVE, who receive glory from one another and do not seek the glory
that comes from the only God? (Jn 5:44; Gal 1:10). But Jesus said: WOE TO YOU, WHEN ALL
MEN SPEAK WELL OF YOU (Lk 6:26). If I sought to please men I should not be the servant of
Christ; St. Augustine; Week 13, Tuesday). Behold the motive of our holy Mother Church to offer
us certain matters to be observed or to be avoided regarding the Most Holy Eucharist, in the
liturgical books. And thus there is often the temptation for the exceptions (for particular cases),
one after the other, accumulated together, indicated in the liturgical books, to become the rule
(habitual), not only for a Mass or for a parish, but even for the celebrations of the Holy Mass for
an entire ecclesial movement!
THE PURITY OF INTENTION IS FUNDAMENTAL:

Jesus wants our heart. If one struggles, if one watches over the heart continuously, one succeeds
in always giving more the heart to Jesus with the help of Mary. If one does not struggle, if one
does not watch over his/her own heart continually, automatically one gives the heart to other
things, created things, but not to the Creator! For you shall worship no other god, for the Lord,
whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God (Ex 34:14). You shall not go after other gods, of the
gods of the peoples who are round about you; for the Lord you God in the midst of you is a
jealous God; lest the anger of the Lord you God be kindled against you, and he destroy you from
off the face of the earth (Deut 6:14-15). He who loves father or mother more than me is not
worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me (Mt 10:37). If
any one come to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and
brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple (Lk 14:26). What
would Jesus say if someone loves the community more than Jesus, even to the point of
using the great sacrifice of Jesus, the Holy Mass, for himself or for the community?!? But if you
say this is impossible for us Catholics in the Mass, then what is Jesus saying in these passages:
If any one come to me and does not hate his own father, or the community?!? Do we think
that Jesus is a little bit exaggerated but we modern people are intelligent and wise (Mt 11:25; Lc
10:21)!?!
Whatever your task, work heartily, as serving the Lord and not men, knowing that from the Lord
you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you are serving the Lord Christ (Col 3:23). For if
any one thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself Do not be
deceived; God is not mocked (Gal 6:3,7).
On several occasions, I have learned how some religious defend their own glory under the
pretext of being concerned for the glory of God, whereas it is not a question of the glory of God,
but of glory of self. O Jesus, how painful this has been for me! What secrets the day of Your
judgment will bring to light! How can one steal God's gifts? (Diary of Saint Faustina, no. 1149).
He who wants to learn true humility should reflect upon the Passion of Jesus (Diary, no.
267).
Sister Mary Gabriel (in purgatory) communicated to Sister Mary of the Cross:
Alas, how many lives seem to be filled with good works and at the death are found empty.
This is because all those actions that appeared to be good, all those showy works, all that
conduct that seemed irreproachable - all these were not done for Jesus alone. Some will have
their eyes opened when they come here to this life (in Purgatory). On earth they wanted to be
made much of, to shine, to be thought very exact in religious observances, to be esteemed as
perfect religious. This is the mainspring of so many lives. If you only knew how few people
work for God and act for Him alone. Alas, at death, when they are no longer blinded, what
regrets they will have. If only sometimes they would think of eternity. What is life compared to that
day which will have no evening for the elect, or to that night which will have no dawning for the
damned? On earth, people attach themselves to everything and everyone except to Him, who

alone ought to have our love and to whom we refuse it. Jesus in the Tabernacle waits for souls to
love Him and He finds none. Hardly one soul in a thousand loves Him as it should. You love Him
and make up to Him for this guilty indifference which exists all over this world.
A Manuscript On Purgatory (http://purgatory-manu.blogspot.com).
The Vatican's chief exorcist, Father Gabriele Amorth, in his interview of 2001, speaking about
many bishops who do not believe that the devil exists, said: I could give you the names of so
many bishops and cardinals who, on their appointment to a diocese, stripped exorcists of their
faculty to perform the rite. Or there are bishops who openly say they dont believe, that these are
things of the past. Why is that? UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE HAD THE INSIDIOUS
INFLUENCE OF CERTAIN BIBLISTS and I could mention some illustrious names. We who are in
daily physical contact with the other world know that this influence is evident in numerous
liturgical reforms. (For example?) The Second Vatican Council asked that some texts be revised.
Disobeying this command, they set about re-writing them completely with no thought for the
danger of making things worse instead of better. So many rites came off badly from this mania
to throw out the old and start from scratch, as if the Church to date had always conned us
and as if only now the time had at last come of the great geniuses, the super theologians,
the super-biblists and the super-liturgists who know what the right thing is for the Church.
This is a lie: the last Council simply asked that the texts be revised, not destroyed.

Lex orandi, lex credendi (Latin loosely translated as "the law of praying [is] the law of believing"
or the content of prayer is the content of the faith) refers to the relationship between worship
and belief. The liturgy of the Holy Mass must lead us to more faith in the real and substantial
presence of the infinite God in the Most Holy Eucharist, not less! Modern men today do not want
to make an act or gesture of humility even before the infinite God in the Eucharist. But one cannot
detach or separate the body fro the heart; one ends up with less reverence before God even in
the heart. And our holy Mother Church knows this very well! The way in which we celebrate the
Holy Mass INFLUENCES GREATLY ON OUR FAITH, or on the loss of faith slowly, in the real
and substantial presence of the infinite God in the Most Holy Eucharist! A similar saying to Lex
orandi, lex credenda is: If you do not live what you believe, you end up believing what you live.
There is always the possibility of liturgical minimalism. 50 years ago people tried to avoid talking
in church before the infinite God in the tabernacle; today it is normal to chatter in church!
Bishop Athanasius Schneider observes ruefully that there are many whose views coincide with
those of the pagan world who declare themselves Catholics and even faithful to the Pope, while
those who are faithful to the Catholic faith or those who are promoting the glory of Christ in the
liturgy are labeled extremists. Such critics may assert that Bishop Schneiders concern over
Holy Communion is like worrying over the numbers of angels on a pinhead. But the bishop insists
that treatment of the Eucharist is at the very heart of the crisis. The Eucharist is at the heart
of the Church, he said. When the heart is weak, the whole body is weak. He argued that
receiving Communion in hand contributes gradually to the loss of the Catholic faith in the
Real Presence and in transubstantiation. Bishop Schneider also rejected the idea that
concern for the liturgy is less important than, or even separate from, concern for the poor. This is
erroneous. The first commandment which Christ gave us was to adore God alone. Liturgy is not
a meeting of friends. It is our first task to adore and glorify God in the liturgy and also in our
manner of life. From a true adoration and love of God grows love for the poor and our
neighbor. It is a consequence.

The popes did not want to change the custom of receiving Holy Communion on the tongue, but
so many bishops and so many priests did not obey the Magisterium of the Church. Read:
Memoriale Domini, Inaestimabile Donum.
(http://www.ewtn.com/library/curia/cdwmemor.htm; http://www.adoremus.org
/InaestimabileDonum.html).
Often I say to my parishioners before the Our Father: Have we made that act of faith , each
one of us, that five minutes ago there was on this altar only a piece of bread and wine, and now
there is the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God? If not,
automatically our faith diminishes! The liturgical books are precisely for this purpose! If one
does not obey the liturgical books of the Catholic Church, automatically the faith, the love and the
reverential humility slowly diminishes before the infinite God in the Eucharist, the source and
summit of the Christian life, without realizing it!
Dead bodies float and go down with the flow of the river; in order to arrive to the Truth, to heaven,
it is necessary to swim against the current everyday, especially today with so many beautiful lies
and underhanded deception spread about everywhere by our enemy.
I also tell my parishioners: If at a certain point Father Joe begins to say things that are not in
agreement with the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC), follow the CCC because
the Truth, which frees and saves, does not change. DO NOT FOLLOW FATHER JOE ALONG
THE PATH OF PERDITION! I must preach according to the CCC, not according to my head or for
human respect; I will not go to hell for anyone! But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should
preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed! (Gal 1:8).
Many people do not understand how one can maintain the two extremes of total trust in God
as trustful children and at the same time reverential humility before the infinite God in the
Eucharist. That is, how can one maintain in the liturgy the nearness to God without loosing
reverential humility? Only with the help of God can one maintain the proper relationship with
Jesus who has two natures, divine and human, our God and Creator, and our elder Brother.
Some religions, such as Muslim, see God as if far away, and far above us, and do not understand
how we Christians can believe that the infinite God became a man among us; the heresy of
Jansenism tends in this direction. But today the pendulum is totally to the other side in which one
hears only about the humanity of Jesus, and it is put aside, at least silence, that Jesus is also
One of the Persons of the Most Holy Trinity. One finds this equilibrium between the two extremes
in biblical tradition, explained in the documents of the Magisterium of the Church. One who truly
trusts in God, as children, with the help of our heavenly Mother, understands well how it is
possible to maintain the truth of who we are and Who is God, which is essentially humility, which
is the fundamental definition of humility! Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and BECOME LIKE
CHILDREN, you will never enter the Kingdom of heaven (Mt 18:3). How can one become a child
without the Mother, the Mother who gave us the Holy Rosary, who accompanies us on our knees
before her Eucharistic Son? The most fundamental virtue of children is trust! It is not by chance,
in these times of the greatest crisis ever, that God has offered us in a more profound way the
Divine Mercy by way of Saint Faustina: Jesus I trust in You! Jesus said to Saint Faustina:
BEFORE I COME AS A JUST JUDGE, I first open wide the door of My mercy. He who refuses to
pass through the door of My mercy must pass through the door of My Justice (Diary, 1146).
YOU WILL PREPARE THE WORLD FOR MY FINAL COMING (Diary of Saint Faustina, 429).

In the booklet, "Saint Veronica Giuliani - True Disciple and Apostle of Mary, by Fr. Emmanuele of
the Immaculate and Sorrowful Heart of Mary, on reads:
- And to the Holy Eucharist, this "great invention of love," as she called It, to which she
resorted to ask the most difficult graces, obtaining permission to receive Him every day; and how
often she received Him from the hands of the Angels ... or from Most Holy Mary ... One must look
in the mirror of the Diary to understand how little reverence and so much superficiality we
approach the Sacred today, and how little faith in the real and working presence of God in this
wonderful Sacrament, even to the limits of desecration ... How important it was for her the way
to receive Him! All ... ALL THE SPIRITUAL FRUITS DEPENDED ON THIS. She used to say,
"Whenever we receive Him in the Blessed Sacrament, God is reborn in the souls of the righteous
who, with the heart ,serve Him and receive Him with purity." It is enough to remember that
she was raptured into union with God after almost every Communion

THE DREAM OF ST. JOHN BOSCO coincides very well with this warning of Msgr. Schneider
and it helps us to understand the great importance of remaining close to Jesus in the Eucharist,
with our Rosary in hand, precisely in this period of crisis in the Church and outside of the Church.
It is very interesting in this his most well known dream that the man in white at the helm of the
ship in a great storm, attacked on all sides by other boats, guides the ship in the direction
between the two pillars: on the top of one there is our Eucharistic Lord in the monstrance,
on the top of the other one sees Our Lady.

Blessed Anne-Catherine Emmerick, an Augustinian German nun (1774 1824), proclaimed

Blessed on October 3, 2004 by Blessed John Paul II, wrote:
May 13, 1820: I saw also the relationship between the two popes. . . I saw how baleful would be
the consequences of this false church. Once more I saw that the Church of Peter was
undermined by a plan evolved by the SECRET SECT, while storms were damaging it. But I saw
also that help was coming when distress had reached its peak. I saw again the Blessed Virgin
ascend on the Church and spread her mantle [over it]. I saw a Pope who was at once gentle,
and very firm.....

Pope John Paul II tells us:

THERE CAN BE NO DANGER OF EXCESS in our care for this Mystery, for in this
sacrament is recapitulated the whole mystery of our salvation.

The Pharisee thought that it was very exaggerated when the sinner standing behind Jesus at
his feet, weeping, she began to wet his feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her
head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment (Lk 7:38)!
Il fariseo pensava che era molto esagerato quando la peccatrice si rannicchi piangendo ai piedi
di Ges e cominci a bagnarli di lacrime, poi l asciugava con i suoi capelli, li baciava e li
cospargeva di olio profumato (Lc 7,38)!
In the Letter of His Holiness Pope, Benedict XVI, Proclaiming A Year For Priests, On the 150th
Anniversary Of The "Dies Natalis" of John Mary Vianney (06-16-2009), Pope Benedict wrote:
He (John Vianney) was convinced that the fervor of a priests life depended entirely upon the
Mass: The reason why a priest is lax is that he does not pay attention to the Mass! My God, how
we ought to pity a priest who celebrates as if he were engaged in something routine!. He
was accustomed, when celebrating, also to offer his own life in sacrifice: What a good thing it is
for a priest each morning to offer himself to God in sacrifice!. By spending long hours in
church before the tabernacle, he inspired the faithful to imitate him by coming to visit Jesus with
the knowledge that their parish priest would be there, ready to listen and offer forgiveness. Later,
the growing numbers of penitents from all over France would keep him in the confessional for up
to sixteen hours a day. It was said that Ars had become a great hospital of souls. His first
biographer relates that the grace he obtained [for the conversion of sinners] was so powerful that
it would pursue them, not leaving them a moment of peace!. The saintly Cur reflected
something of the same idea when he said: It is not the sinner who returns to God to beg his
forgiveness, but God himself who runs after the sinner and makes him return to him. This good
Savior is so filled with love that he seeks us everywhere.
(http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/letters/2009/documents/hf_benxvi_let_20090616_anno-sacerdotale_en.html).
BUT TODAY, HOW MANY PRIESTS AND BISHOPS DO AS DID THE HOLY CURATE OF
ARS? The last several popes have told us that the gravest sin today is that there is no more sin;
we have lost the sense of sin. One of the most fundamental tasks for Jesus was that of
Redeemer, to free us from our sins for those of good will who are willing to confess their sins (Mk
2:17; Lk 5:31-32, etc.). Thus one of the most fundamental tasks for priests is to be the doctor of
the souls, to help the souls to identify and tu cure the sicknesses of the soul, especially those
most grave which are called mortal sins, that is, the sins that render the soul dead, but the body
walks with a dead soul up until death if there is no priest to help the person to recognize the
gravity of their situation and to make a good confession! If priests do not help people to identify
the sicknesses of the soul, people do not have anything to confess, and thus have no need of
Jesus the Redeemer, who came for sinners, not for the just who believe to have no sins. In this
way the Redemption is nullified for these people because they do not believe to have need of the
Savior.
WHAT WOULD YOU THINK OF A DOCTOR WHO CARED NOTHING ABOUT DISEASE and
sends home the patients with grave sicknesses saying to not to worry because THE DOCTOR
DOES NOT WANT TO SCARE OR UPSET THE PATIENT. Such doctors would be called
quakes, incompetents, guilty of gross professional negligence; they would be sued for
malpractice. But if priests do not speak about the only thing that can kill the soul, mortal sin,
because the people (spiritual patients) do not want to hear these things, what would we think
about such priests? If the doctor acts in this way, the person could lose his life; but if the doctor of
souls, the priest, does like this, the person could loose his immortal which last for all eternity! For
what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give
in return for his life (Mt 16:26; Mk 8:36)?
We must recognize that our human nature is such that we automatically slid toward the easiest
path, or toward the path which gives us more recognition before people. Precisely for this one
8 von 25

finds often in the Gospels from the mouth of Jesus: Watch therefore! Seven times in the Book
of Judges alone, in the Old Testament, the people of Israel went through the cycle of sin,
suffering, supplication to God, salvation from God, and then the slide back again into the lack of
prayer and of the observance ot the 10 Commandments, and then they began all over again to
sin again. It is interesting that when the Israelites were tired of deciding and doing things on their
own and experienced how much better it is to follow Gods chosen ones, they finally pleaded with
Gideon to rule over us, you and your son and your grandson also... (Judg 8:22). How many
Catholics are not yet tired of following their own heads of relativism instead of the teachings of the
Magisterium of the Church?
You parents understand well the great tendency for the children to take the easy way; but
also our Holy Mother Church understands this very well. The Second Vatican Council gave more
responsibility to the people, but unfortunately the great majority, instead of living this responsibility
as Christians who want to give joy to Jesus, which means to seek to discover and do what Jesus
wants, took the easy way just like spoiled children all their lives. For example, the documents of
the council told us that we could substitute abstinence from meat on Friday with some other
sacrifice to honor the day that Jesus died for us, given the fact that many eat delicious fish which
was not a sacrifice. And so, almost all the Catholics only heard the words that it is not necessary
to abstain from meat each Friday, and nothing else! When the pill arrived in 1960, the great
majority of Catholics took the easy way, and thus when Humanae Vitae was published there
was a great rebellion by the spoiled grownup children that were habituated to a Christianity
without the cross, even though this does not lead toward true freedom and afterwards to heaven.
Very quickly the contraceptive mentality lead us to abortion, euthanasia, gay unions, When the
Mom is not around to push us, the children who have not assumed their responsibilities, that is,
those who have not fallen in love with Him who gave us everything, Jesus, they take the easiest
way, or the way that is more gratifying to their self-importance. God who is totally respectful of our
free will, waits for each one of us in silence to give freely as we have receive freely everything
that we have (Mt 10:8).
How many Jews thought that when the Messiah arrived everything would be easier e that
they would even be at least more free from the 10 Commandments? Instead Jesus took us to the
heart of the Law: Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come
not to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not
an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished. Whoever then relaxes one of
the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of
heaven (Mt 5:17-20). When the children leave home, how many have an attitude to be free
from the rules of the parents, and how many seek to understand the wisdom of what they
received from their for their true good? How many Catholics, after the council offered more
responsibility, took advantage of the situation to do things as they pleased, to trust in themselves,
instead of seeking to discover and to understand the documents of our Mother Church for our
true good together with the cross of Christ?
If a person does not struggle to remember and to make an act of faith as profound as possible
before the Eucharist, especially during the celebrations of the Holy Mass, automatically the faith,
love and reverential humility diminishes! The liturgy, guided by the liturgical books of the Church,
must help us to do precisely this!
So many today do not want to pay attention to the liturgical books which offer certain matters to
be observed or to be avoided regarding the Most Holy Eucharist. But when we look at the
directives, in detail, which God gave to the Israelites, who did not even have the infinite God in
the Eucharist, I hope it helps us to make a good examine of conscience!
"If his offering to the LORD is a burnt offering of birds, then he shall bring his offering of
turtledoves or of young pigeons. And the priest shall bring it to the altar and wring off its head,
and burn it on the altar; and its blood shall be drained out on the side of the altar; and he shall
take away its crop with the feathers, and cast it beside the altar on the east side, in the place for
ashes; he shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it asunder. And the priest shall burn it on
the altar, upon the wood that is on the fire; it is a burnt offering, an offering by fire, a pleasing odor
to the LORD (Lev 1:14-17).
There are two good reasons why this does not mean much to us. One is that we know now that
God is no longer honoured by animal sacrifices, a primitive thing. We as Christians have even a
stronger reason for not taking this seriously, because we know that is it the sacrifice of Calvary
that renders all other sacrifices useless and needless.
But when we look more attentively at the passage we see other things: 1) There could only be
two types of birds: turtle doves or young pigeons. Why would that be? In those times, they were
the noblest types of fowl. The point behind that is, nothing but the best is what God is deserving
of. This must apply also today, when I do what I do for God, nothing slipshod; it ought to be the
best. 2) You note the fact that everybody is going to be making a sacrifice; if you were wealthy
you would sacrifice a lamb; if you were poor you would bring up birds. Why what was the reason
for that? Well it is a tribute to God, a way of acknowledging Gods Lordship, a way of saying to
God, I have an utter dependence upon you. Today I should have said that very same thing! It is
not something that that poor man in 600 BC felt the need to, I should be doing the same. 3)
Notice the great detail is in all this. It doesnt say bring the birds up and the priest will sacrifice
them. No. They have to be certain kind of birds. Then it must be the priest who brings it to the
altar. Then the priest shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it asunder. And the priest shall
burn it on the altar (Lev 1:14-17). There are about 10 specifications that have to be observed
here. What does that imply? If someone here would give me very specific instructions about
where to look, how to sit, how to speak I would gather that this is very important. The more
precise and specified it becomes, the more you are stressing the significance of this. The point is
this: when you do what you do for God, you cannot be slipshod; you have to be very very earnest
and careful. He deserves nothing but the best from you. Here the directives come from God by
way of Moses; for Catholics the directives come from God by way of the Magisterium of
the Church!
The Magisterium of the Church has given us many directives to help us to not neglect the things
of God, in particular the Eucharist! The problem is that when there is lacking faith, the faith to
believe that the directives of Moses or of the Magisterium of the Church are directives of God, or
even to not care at all, these directives from Moses or from the Magisterium of the Church are
taken in the way spoiled and rebellious or full of proud children receive them from their parents.
On interprets the directives like from a mother, not considered very intelligent, who perhaps nags
too much. The rebellious children even accuse the parents of being full of pride because
they do no do like the great majority of parents do today who have let themselves slid into
relativism, the easier path and more gratifying to our personal individualism! These untrusting
children even say to their parents to shut up, because the parents are sinners, the priests are
sinners, and so, everybody shut up! How many Catholics today do as good children who trust in
their parents and seek to understand the directives of the parents instead of seeking all the
excuses and all the scapegoats to do as they please???
Also in the Book of Leviticus, God explains the attitude, THE SPIRIT IN WHICH IT IS
NECESSARY TO LOVE ONES NEIGHBOR:
"And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field to its very border, nor
shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest; you shall leave them for the poor and for the
stranger: I am the LORD your God (Lev 23:22). These are the instructions given to wealthy
landowners in those days; this is how widows and orphans could sustain themselves by gleaning,
9 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
as did Ruth and Noeme. This was a way of saying to people: take thought of the need of those
around you, especially those who are hurting. This passage also indicated to not do good for
goodness sake, which too many people tend to do today. They just feel good doing the charity
they do. And that is not bad, but there is a higher motive suggested here. You do this not because
you feels good when you help someone who is in need. Not even because that is justice; I have
so much more than I need, I should share with those who are in desperate need. NO. The
reason given here is: I am the LORD your God; that is, do it for Gods sake. Thats what
keeps if from being mere social action. When you get Christians who forget this, that you are
doing it to honor God, you are no better than any government worker who is involved in helping
the poor. Even the head of the social workers in India said one time to Mother Teresa of Calcutta:
I finally have understood the difference between us social workers and you sisters; you do it for
Someone, and we do it for something! And this man in charge was not even a Christian!
In an interview with Time Magazine (1989), Mother Teresa of Calcutta was asked: Why
have you been so successful? Mother Teresa replied: Jesus made Himself the bread of life to
give us life. That's where we begin the day, with MASS. And we end the day with ADORATION of
the Blessed Sacrament. I don't think that I could do this work for even one week if I didn't have
four hours of prayer every day. (http://www.servelec.net/mothertheresa.htm). When I saw Mother
Teresa (together with Jean Vanier, founder of lArche, for people with developmental disabilities)
in the Church at Mondo Migliore (Rocca di Papa, Roma; January 1989), when she looked at the
Eucharist and when she bowed down to the point of touching her head on the cold marble floor
during the Consecration of the Mass, it made a great impression on me! Mother Teresa never
opened a new house for her sisters if there was not the possibility of having not only daily Mass
everyday, but also adoration everyday; because she would say that spending time in adoration
before our Eucharistic Lord, the faith grows in the real, substantial and personal presence of
Jesus, and thus one is able to see more and more with the eyes of faith the presence of Jesus in
the least of these my brethren. Mother Teresas motto of life was: You did it to Me (Mt 25:40)!
TODAY, IN THE MASS, THERE IS SO MUCH EMPHASIS ON THE PEOPLE, ON THE MUSIC,
DANCING, BALLOONS You just have to say: where are we? Are we in the entertainment
business, and if you are you will lose out because you cannot be entertaining every week. It is
important to love your neighbour, but Mass has really turned into a social issue, and then the
sacrifice, many times, the whole idea of Calvary, communion with God seems to be slipping
away. With the unapproved and misguided liturgical innovations, we are loosing the sense of
the sacred, the depth of mystery; we no longer awestruck at the Sacrifice of Jesus for the
redemption of the world. After the Council in many churches the Blessed Sacrament was moved
from the center. With that went the custom of genuflecting as you entered the church. The fact to
have easy access to the sanctuary which before was consider sacred and reserved. All of these
exception of the rules made by the great geniuses, the super theologians, the super-biblists and
the super-liturgists who know what the right thing is for the Church, as Father Amorth said, have
chiped away at the holiness, the sense of the sacred. Its gone.
SLOWLY THE PRAYER IN FAMILIES HAS DIMINISHED; very few families pray the Rosary
together today. Due to the fact that there is much less prayer today, many older people, who still
come to church on Sunday, grumble because the Mass is too long, while they have so much time
for everything else, being in retirement. A priest in France said to me that very few Catholics go to
Sunday Mass, and they do not even want a Funeral Mass but they want only a little holy water
sprinkled on the coffin at the cemetery. Among other things, behold the consequences of not
following the liturgical books with the motive: to do the communion in this way is an essential
instrument to convert the ones further away from the faith: to abandon this would compromise
their mission. It seems to me to do the Holy Mass in this way would compromise the faith
of all who celebrate the Mass in this way, slowly without realizing it! Theologians explain
to us that Judas Iscariot believe he was doing a good thing to force Jesus to show His power
before everyone in order to save the people from the Romans; but he did not do things according
to God in humility and suffering on the cross, but according to the mentality of the world, in a
triumphal way before the people.
How many young priests succeed, with their person charisma, a gift from God, to attract the
youth in the parishes, but afterwards do not use this gift from God to lead the youth toward
Jesus in the Eucharist, with the help of Mary, but finish like a community that exists to serve
itself, which serves the gratification of the people in the community? He (Jesus) must increase,
but I must decrease (Jn 3:30). Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the
earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. He who loves his life loses it,
and he who hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life (Jn 12:24-25). If a person, with a
charisma from God, does not die in the hands of God, in the hands of the guidance of the
Magisterium of the Church, there will not be true fruits that last!
Every one to whom much is given, of him will much be required (Lk 12:48). But the prophet
who presumes to speak a word in my name which I have not commanded him to speak, or who
speaks in the name of other gods that same prophet shall die (Deut 18:20).
WE ARE LEAVING BEHIND THE BIBLICAL TRADITION, because in the Old Testament, there
was a profound reverence for the sacred. Their attitudes in the Temple where there was the Arc
of the Covenant (much less than the infinite God in the Eucharist!) where there was the special
presence of God, the way in which they offered the sacrifices, they had a tangible sense of God,
the nearness of God. Everyone knew that how one was to behave! Only the high priest, once a
year (the feast of Yom Kippur), entered the second Tent of the Temple (Ex 30:10; Lev 16:2-29;
Heb 7:27; 9:7). They did not into the Temple in a hurried fashion once a year; the motive was
respect, not forgetfulness or neglect. Even today the habit of using Gods proper name; no Jew
would say Yahweh, only to show reverence and respect, to create a sense of awe. So when they
would read the text and they came upon the word Yahweh, they would hold back, they would not
even think of pronouncing it. In these small ways, you build up that sense of the sacred. And
the great geniuses, the super theologians, the super-biblists and the super-liturgists who know
what the right thing is for the Church, have gotten rid of all these devices that had developed
over the years to do just that, to create a sense of awe, about the Eucharist specifically.
One justifies getting rid of these signs and disciplines in order to attract those further
away from the faith, or to make children of 9 or 10 years to feel more at ease, while in the
schools is taught sex education to these children which 60 years ago was for older boys and girls
which was to be explained by the parents at the right moment for each boy or girl! We are seeing
that the experimentation that we have done in this area has failed. And it is a terrible failure. If it
had been math that we had been experimenting with, there would had been the human cry, we
would never had let it happen. We have let children grow up into adulthood without a proper
grasp on the faith, of the sacred, without a proper understanding of the Eucharist, butchered! The
question should never be introduced to making it more attractive; we do not go there for kicks.
You go to worship God to pay a debt, if anything, and even you are feeling lousy, you go. But we
are not saying that to the kids coming up, especially with our example of faith which is seen in our
unspoken attitudes before the Eucharist. The Holy Mass is not meant to be fun.
THEY SAY THE MASS IS A MEAL. You never hear anymore that the Mass is a holy sacrifice. We
have lost the biblical tradition of maintaining the first priority of rendering worship to God, not
to man! Thus the first priority today is to have this sense of all being here together, while putting
aside the question of worship of God. Certainly a meal fosters the convivial experience; and thus
10 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
this is what is promoted. The big thing is to be together. The alter therefore is the table. And the
Eucharist is a meal.
This is not to deny that the Mass is a meal; it is after all patterned on the last supper. But it is also
a sacrifice, and that table is also an altar on which a sacrifice is performed. The exegetes of
Sacred Scripture and of the first period of the Christian community explain to us that when we
look at the time of the Apostles, right after the resurrection, the first generation of Christians were
Jewish, and they continued to be Jewish even after the resurrection. And so the went every
Saturday to the synagogue where they would read part of the Scriptures. And they went Saturday
afternoon then, the Sabbath, to the temple where there would be the afternoon sacrifice. Then in
the year 70, the temple was destroyed, and so they did not go to the temple anymore. We read in
Acts, of John and Peter, as a routine thing, going up to the afternoon sacrifice. Now the temple is
gone. They continue to go to the synagogue until their Jewish confreres decide that their belief in
Jesus, who they called the Nazarene Rabbi, their belief in this person as the Messiah, disqualifies
them as Jews, they were excommunicated. So now these people, how do they worship. They did
always, since our Lord had directed it, the breaking of the bread. So what they do now? They put
together this form of worship which is based both on the experience of the synagogue and
on the experience of the sacrifice in the temple. So the liturgy of the Word that we have today
is a reflection of the synagogue we have readings, we pray over the ideas that turn up in those
readings, we have a homily on those readings. Then we go to the altar; there you have the
modern day counterpart of the temple. There you have a real sacrifice. The liturgical books hold
us to not loose this our precious heritage, guided by the Holy Spirit, in which in the Mass there is
the parts of the synagogue, of the sacrifice and of the breaking of bread.
We are at the service of God, not God at our service! The first question in the catechism for
children was: Who created you? We responded as children: God. The Second question was: Why
did God create you? We responded: To know God, to love Him and to serve Him, and to be with
Him in Heaven. For a great number of people today, religion, the liturgy, the parish, the pastor, the
pope and even God Himself, exist to serve us! The cult of man instead of the cult of God! For a
great number of people today religion does not exist to help us discover the will of God and to do
the will of God!
For many people the documents of the Church, in particular the Liturgical Books, and also the
writings of the popes and of the saints regarding these things, will seem exaggerated, after
years of sliding into the exceptions, into our relativism. In his homily at the Mass preceding the
conclave that quickly elected him Pope Benedict XVI, then Cardinal Ratzinger said: Today,
having a clear faith based on the Creed of the Church IS OFTEN LABELED AS
FUNDAMENTALISM. Whereas relativism, that is, letting oneself be "tossed here and there,
carried about by every wind of doctrine", seems the only attitude that can cope with modern
times. We are building a dictatorship of relativism that does not recognize anything as
definitive and whose ultimate goal consists solely of one's own ego and desires.
(http://www.vatican.va/gpII/documents/homily-pro-eligendo-pontifice_20050418_en.html;

Professor Dr. Scott Hahn, of the Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio, said that the crisis
in the Church began when Catholics began to see the Eucharist as a sacred object instead
the divine Person.
The Servant of God, Archbishop Fulton Sheen, said that whenever there is a falling off in
the faith of our Catholic people it will always be seen first in regard to the Eucharist, to
their devotion to the Eucharist. And he proves this from the Gospel of St. John ch. 6, when Jesus
talked about the bread of life, which He promised to give it to the people. And He said my flesh is
real food and my blood is real drink (Jn 6:55). And many of the people who had been following
him walked away. The bishop points out that Jesus lost some of his disciples too that day and
even lost one of his Apostles. Jesus said to the twelve, Will you also go away? Simon Peter
answered Him, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life; and we have
believed, and have come to know, that you are the Holy One of God. Jesus answered them, Did
I not choose you, the twelve, and one of you is a devil? He spoke of Judas the son of Simon
Iscariot, for he, one of the twelve, was to betray him (Jn 6:67-71). Bishop Sheen points out that
Jesus is referring to Judas who did not believe in the teaching of the Eucharist. Today there are
many Catholics, and many Catholic leaders, who do not believe in the real presence.
Why do so many people NOT WANT TO CONSIDER THE POSSIBILITY OF SLIDING INTO
NEGLIGENCE IN MAINTAINING RESPECT AND REVERENTIAL HUMILITY BEFORE OUR
EUCHARISTIC LORD, while they realize this danger of sliding in the normal things of life? If a
husband or a wife neglects the relationship with the spouse, one knows what happens to this
matrimonial relationship! If males habitually look at pornography, without repenting and struggling
against this temptation, they end up looking at women as objects of pleasure, instead of people to
appreciate and to esteem. When husbands, who are habituated to looking at pornography, make
love with their wives, they are making love with the pornographic image in their heads, not with
their wives, which is a true betrayal (http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2013/04/james-59.html)! When a
girl uses her half naked body as bait, she attracts fish which are interested in her body; when
these fish are tired of her body, he goes to another body and she falls into depression and she
wonders why?!? If she covers her body modestly and uses the mystery of her unique personality
that God has given her, she attracts boys who are interested in her unique character that is
unrepeatable and thus this attraction will last a whole lifetime, with the help of prayer, and into
eternity! This is not easy when the great majority of male fish have become intoxicated, even to
the point of modifying their brains, with pornography and thus are brainwashed and strongly
stimulated to seek what they see in the pornographic magazines, the TV, the perfect bodies
which do not exist. The girls end up trying to compete with the perfectly disguised, camouflaged
and fixed-up models and end up doing extreme diets and all kinds of other body-shaping
exercises. One of my nieces in California had great difficulty with anorexia!
Our Eucharistic Lord wants to be treated as a Person to be loved, NOT AS A SACRED

OBJECT that is useful to create community or for other motives!!!
It is interesting to read the writings of Sister Lucy of Fatima:

At times we found little Francisco, who was hiding in order to pray of to think, as he would say,
to the Lord, sad due to so many sins. If we asked him: - Francisco, why do you not tell me and
Jacinta to pray with you? He would respond: - I like more to pray alone, to think and to console
the Lord who is very sad. One day I asked him: - Francisco what pleases you more: to console
the Lord or the convert sinners, so that souls do not go to hell? I like more to console the
Lord. Did you not notice how Our Lady, also last month, became so sad, when she said to not
offend anymore the Lord God, who is already very offended? I would like to console the Lord and
then convert the sinners so that they might not offend Him any more.
For so many Catholics today, the first priority is man or the community, not God. Everything is
upside down, for motives that seem good! Behold how Satan disguises himself as an angel of
11 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
light (2Cor 11:14)!
HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE IN LOVE WITH JESUS like Blessed Francisco of Fatima, who want
to console the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary? Saint Padre Pio said
that Jesus will suffer until the end of the world for our sins, because for God, there is neither the
past nor the future, but the eternal present. At the Holy Mass we are truly present at Calvary, the
sacrifice of Jesus substantially; but how many Catholics want to discover or know this reality in
order to put God at the center of the liturgy, at the center of the Holy Mass, instead of people or
the community?
Blessed Francisco of Fatima, after having received Holy Communion from the Angel at Fatima,
began to pass at least three hours everyday before the Tabernacle.
Pope John Paul II said in his homily at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima;
Saturday, May 13, 2000:
Later Francisco, one of the three privileged children, exclaimed: "We were burning in that light
which is God and we were not consumed. What is God like? It is impossible to say. In fact we will
never be able to tell people". God: a light that burns without consuming. Moses had the same
experience when he saw God in the burning bush; he heard God say that he was concerned
about the slavery of his people and had decided to deliver them through him: "I will be with you"
(cf. Ex 3: 2-12). Those who welcome this presence become the dwelling-place and, consequently,
a "BURNING BUSH" of the Most High.
(http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/travels/documents/hf_jpii_hom_20000513_beatification-fatima_en.html).
The sons of this world are wiser in their own generation than the sons of light (Lk 16:8).
Satan and his followers know well the tactic to help people slowly slide in the direction according
to his agenda.
"Religion does not fear the daggers point; but it can vanish under corruption. Let us not grow
tired of corruption: we may use a pretext, such as sport, hygiene, health resorts. It is necessary to
corrupt, that our boys and girls practice nudism in dress. To avoid too much reaction, one would
have to progress in a methodical manner: first, undress up to the elbow; then up to the knees;
then arms and legs completely uncovered; later, the upper part of the chest, the shoulders, etc.
etc." (International Review on Freemasonry, 1928)
In an interview with the Sec. of Agriculture, Esra Taft Benson during the Eisenhower
administration, KHRUSHCHEV said, You Americans are so gullible. No, you wont accept
communism outright; but well keep feeding you small doses of Socialism until you will finally
wake up and find that you already have communism. We wont have to fight you; we will so
weaken your economy UNTIL YOU FALL LIKE OVERRIPE FRUIT INTO OUR HANDS.
From a website in Italian one finds the following in regards to MASONRY AND SEXUAL
CORRUPTION:
2) Our job is to PROMOTE A WAVE OF PORNOGRAPHY and to present it with sympathy as the
supreme goal of artistic freedom (Word of order of the Italian Communist Party).
3) If we want to destroy a nation, WE MUST FIRST DESTROY ITS MORALS; then it will fall in
our laps as a ripe fruit. Awaken the interest of the youth for sex and it will be yours (Lenin).
(http://cattoliciliberi.forumcommunity.net/?t=25524939) (http://markbeast.blogspot.com).
When Pope Paul VI issued his prophetic encyclical, HUMANAE VITAE (1968), there was an
incredible negative reaction not only on the part of the laity who wanted to enjoy the pleasures of
sex without any responsibility or openness to life by using artificial birth control, but even on the
part of a great number of priests and bishops, even entire Episcopal conferences (e.g., the
Winnipeg Statement of the Canadian Bishops)! BEFORE 1930 ALL MAINLINE PROTESTANT
DENOMINATIONS WERE IN ACCORD WITH THE CATHOLIC CHURCH that the use of artificial
birth control was a grave evil and a serious sin. When the Anglican Church changed its stance in
1930 (Lambeth Conference) the other protestants churches quickly followed suit while Pope Pius
XI reaffirmed the Churchs constant teaching on this grave evil in his encyclical Casti Cannubii
(1930).
WHEN THE ANGLICAN CHURCH FIRST APPROVED THE USE OF CONTRACEPTION IN

1930 IT WAS ONLY FOR SERIOUS REASONS and only for married people who have been
generous for life. However, by providing an opening for contraception, the qualifying phrase for
serious reason was quickly ignored. Subsequently the use of contraception was viewed as
virtuous behavior, and even the silent holocaust of abortion has become a private ethical choice
of birth control. The unborn, unwanted babies no longer have any legal protection; they are now
ripped to pieces after they are brutally murdered. BABIES DO NOT CHOOSE TO DIE! IS THIS
NOT A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THE SLIPPERY SLOP? The former Hippocratic oath for health
care workers read: I will administer no abortafacient to a pregnant woman. The original
Hippocratic oath acknowledged that abortion was a form of doing violence not only to the child
but to the woman as well. Read also: CONTRACEPTION: WHY NOT?. Janet Smith explains
why the Catholic Church keeps insisting, in the face of the opposite position held by most of the
rest of the modern world, that contraception is one of the worst inventions of our time.
(http://www.catholiceducation.org/articles/sexuality/se0002.html).
As soon as we do not see life as a precious gift but only as a convenience to ourselves, our
society quickly sinks into the chaos of hell in the culture of death! When everything totally crashes
and there is great suffering and confusion, the great majority will wander why! We are so blind to
our fundamental egoism, pride, sloth and lack of charity which caused the catastrophe! Visit:
Prophecies of Humanae Vitae (http://pop.org/201003231196/prophecies-of-humanae-vitae).
Behold the agenda of the angel of light who disguises himself as an angel of light (2Cor 11:14)!
Step by step pornography, artificial birth control, abortion, euthanasia, gay unions toward the
culture of death! Behold the agenda of the angel of light working in the Church to take from us the
graces of the Eucharist with the lose of faith, love and reverential humility before the the source
and summit of the Christian life! SAINT PADRE PIO said: "It would be easier for the world to
survive without the sun than to do so without the HOLY MASS."

Satan knows very well the principle of the slippery slope, slowly. The Gay activists after the
War Conference in Warrenton, Virginia (February 1988), and then the book "After the Ball
(1989), programmed very well how to brainwash and manipulate the American public to loose the
sense of grave sin in the act of homosexuality. Visit the section: 37. The Astounding Impact of
the Ruthless Manipulation of Militant Gay Activists! (Catholic Prophecy Today;
http://markbeast.blogspot.com). Over a hundred years ago the homosexual act was considered
Sodomy and it was identified as an act. It still is Sodomy. It was referred to as the homosexual
act. But in the 1960s it was then conditioned. The condition of homosexuality was redefined as a
condition rather than an act. It did not change, it was just redefined. What really happened here
was while you can criticize an act and you can even say it is a criminal act, how do you criticize a
condition that someone suffers with? How can you criticize the act that one commits who has this
regrettable condition! Cant you be more compassionate?!? AND THEN FROM THE
CONDITION WE NOW HAVE AN IDENTITY.
This is not a new technique. In 1970, the CALIFORNIA MEDICAL JOURNAL released an article
how abortion would be a very lucrative business; it was admitted in the article that indeed that if
this were to be presented to the American population it would never fly because the American
population would never permit the killing of a child in the womb. It was admitted in the article that
everyone knows that life begins at the moment of conception. So they had to change the
language; they had to change the way in which people refer to the child in the womb; they had to
begin to depersonalize the child. (Recycling Wrongs: All Over Again;
http://lawreview.vermontlaw.edu/articles/v32/3/short.pdf; http://www.all-creatures.org/murti
/pub-thelib-01.html; http://www.prolifecare.com/holyinnocents/evidence.html).
In order to change those concepts you have to obfuscate, you have to change terminology,
you have to change language, you have to rationalize, you have to make something abstract
which God makes very clear.
Positivism sounds like something nice and reasonable, to adapt the laws for our new times
and needs. But the incredible deception is that the elected government officials and the appointed
judges apply positivism individually like little dictators without letting the citizens vote on changing
the laws for our new times and needs. Our founding fathers, having suffered under tyrannical
governments and having seen the folly of the French Revolution, knew very well that the best
constitution in the world will crumble if the citizens loose their faith and morals.
I write these things to help us understand the strategy of our enemy regarding the Eucharist. It is
necessary to CHANGE THE EUCHARIST FROM THE REAL SUBSTANTIAL PRESENCE
Jesus Christ in Person, to a sacred object, like a crucifix; it is necessary to take away the
exterior gestures of reverential humility before the Eucharist! Satan knows very well that you
cannot detach or separate the body from the heart; one ends up with less and less reverence
before God also in the heart. And our Holy Mother Church knows this very well! Spoiled children
say to the mother: Be quiet Mom; we have already heard these thing, enough! Satan uses the
same strategy as in the sexual revolution, brainwashing us with the mass media that you can
detach and separate the body from the heart and the mind in order to use the body for pleasure
without the consequences to the person. But how is it that so many people enter into depression
in our sexualized culture; three times more among the females?!?
Even Jesus Himself complained often of this loss of faith with Saint Faustina:
Oh, how painful it is to Me that souls so seldom unite themselves to Me in Holy Communion. I
wait for souls, and they are indifferent toward Me. I love them tenderly and sincerely, and they
distrust Me. I want to lavish My graces on them, and they do not want to accept them. They treat
Me as a dead object, whereas My Heart is full of love and mercy. In order that you may know at
least some of My pain, imagine the most tender of mothers who has great love for her children,
while those children spurn her love. Consider her pain. No one is in a position to console her. This
is but a feeble image and likeness of My love (Diary of Saint Faustina, no. 1447).
After Communion today, Jesus told me how much He desires to come to human hearts. I desire
to unite Myself with human souls; My great delight is to unite Myself with souls. Know, My
daughter, that when I come to a human heart in Holy Communion, My hands are full of all kinds of
graces which I want to give to the soul. But souls do not even pay any attention to Me; they
leave Me to Myself and busy themselves with other things. Oh, how sad I am that souls do not
recognize Love! They treat Me as a dead object. I answered Jesus, "O Treasure of my heart,
the only object of my love and entire delight of my soul, I want to adore You in my heart as You
are adored on the throne of Your eternal glory. My love wants to make up to You at least in part
for the coldness of so great a number of souls. Jesus, behold my heart which is for You a dwelling
place to which no one else has entry. You alone repose in it as in a beautiful garden. O my Jesus,
farewell; I must go already to take up my tasks. But I will prove my love for You with sacrifice,
neither neglecting nor letting any chance for practicing it slip by" (Diary of Saint Faustina, no.
1385).
Sister Mary Gabriel (in purgatory) communicated to Sister Mary of the Cross:
(October 3rd, 1880) If only it were given you to understand with what scorn and indifference
Jesus is treated on earth, not only by the world in general, but how He is insulted, mocked and
held in derision even by those who ought to love Him. Such indifference is found even in religious
communities of men and women, His chosen people, where He ought to be treated as a Friend, a
Father, a spouse. Often He does not even receive the consideration shown to a stranger. This
indifference is found also among the clergy, at present more than at any other time. He is
treated as an equal by those who should tremble at the thought of the awful and august
mission with which they have been entrusted. The most sacred reality is often treated with
coldness and boredom. How many are there who have the interior spirit? I can assure you that
there are but a few. Here in Purgatory the priests who are expiating their indifference and their
want of love are numerous. Their culpable negligence must be atoned for in the midst of fire and
torture of all kinds. You can judge from this that God who is so good and loving to all His
creatures finds few who love and console Him. Alas, there are few. That is the sorrow of the
Sacred Heart of Jesus, the ingratitude of His own. Yet His Sacred Heart is full of overflowing love
and seeks only to share it. He wants to find some souls bereft of self so as to overpower them
with His love, more than He has as yet done for anyone. Oh, how little Jesus is understood on
earth, and how little are His mercy and His love understood! People try to seek everything except
that which gives real happiness. How pitiable!
A Manuscript On Purgatory (http://purgatory-manu.blogspot.com).

From the meditations of Cardinal Ratzinger on the Way of the Cross at The Colosseum (Good
Friday 2005):
The Lord compares the course of his whole earthly existence to that of a grain of wheat, which
only by dying can produce fruit. He interprets his earthly life, his death and resurrection from
the standpoint of the Most Holy Eucharist, which recapitulates his entire mystery. He had
13 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
experienced his death as an act of self-oblation, an act of love, and his body was then
transfigured in the new life of the Resurrection. He, the Incarnate Word, now becomes our food,
food which leads to true life, life eternal. The Eternal Word the power which creates life comes
down from heaven as the true manna, the bread bestowed upon man in faith and in sacrament.
The Way of the Cross is thus a path leading to the heart of the Eucharistic mystery: popular
piety and sacramental piety of the Church blend together and become one. The prayer of the
Way of the Cross is a path leading to a deep spiritual communion with Jesus; lacking this, our
sacramental communion would remain empty. The Way of the Cross is thus a mystagogical
way.
(http://www.vatican.va/news_services/liturgy/documents/index_via-crucis_en.html).
Jesus loved them to the end (Jn 13:1), that is to say, to the summit of every possibility of love,
because Jesus renders perpetual, today, the Sacrifice accomplished one single time on
Calvary for the salvation of all: Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for
his friends (Jn 15:13).
When Jesus was surrounded by the Pharisees snares and rejected by the mighty; when He was
making his way along the roads of Galilee and Judea to announce the Good News; when He was
healing the sick, pardoning sinners, and setting free the possessed; when He was awaited by the
poor and consoled by the little ones Jesus was constantly yearning to reach the fulfillment of
this, his Passover. I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer (Lk
22:15). I have earnestly desired! Jesus whole life was directed to this supreme and ineffable
moment. From the incarnation in the womb of Mary to his birth, from the threatened childhood to
youth, from early manhood spent in the poor house of Nazareth to his public life, each day Jesus
was constantly impelled toward this moment.
Jesus perpetuates this same offering for us in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Eucharist.
Because it is there we adore Jesus risen who sits at the right hand of the Father, still with
the wounds of his passion, in an attitude of intercession for us. The Holy Father Benedict, at
the World Youth Day at Cologne, said: By making the bread into his Body and the wine into his
Blood, He anticipates his death, he accepts it in his heart, and he transforms it into an action of
love. What on the outside is simply brutal violence - the Crucifixion - from within becomes an act
of total self-giving love. This is the substantial transformation which was accomplished at
the Last Supper and was destined to set in motion a series of transformations leading ultimately
to the transformation of the world when God will be all in all (cf. I Cor 15: 28). (August 21, 2005;
http://w2.vatican.va/content/benedict-xvi/en/homilies/2005/documents/hf_benxvi_hom_20050821_20th-world-youth-day.html).
HOW DO WE LIVE OUR DAY, OUR WEEK, in view of sacrificing ourselves with Christ on the
cross, humiliated, in the supreme sacrifice of Jesus, that is, in the Holy Mass?!? Do we ardently
desire this (Lk 12:15)?!? Or is the Mass rather something that gives me kicks, something for me,
a benefit for me, to be together with other creatures, but not to suffer with Mary at the feet of the
cross where the Creator suffers for us in the eternal present?!?
Before the passion and crucifixion of Jesus, with all the different people involved, DURING
THE HOLY MASS, each one of us can ask ourselves: WHICH PERSONALITY DO I
REFLECT?
In stark contrast with the liturgical books of the Catholic Church, on finds in
The Masonic Plan For The Destruction Of The Catholic Church (http://spir-food.blogspot.it
/2013/11/masonic-plan.html):
3. Assign the Protestant ministers to reconsider the Holy Mass and to desecrate it. Sown doubts
about the Real Presence in the Eucharist and confirm that the Eucharist - with greater
proximity to the Protestant faith - is only bread and wine and is intended as a pure symbol.
Spread Protestants in seminaries and schools. Encourage ecumenism as the path towards unity.
Accuse anyone who believes in the Real Presence as subversive and disobedient to the Church.
6. Prevent the faithful from taking Holy Communion kneeling. Tell the nuns that they must
dissuade the children from keeping their hands together before and after Communion. Tell them
that God loves them as they are and that they should feel completely at ease. Eliminate in the
church kneeling and any genuflection. Remove the pews. Tell people that during the Mass they
must show their faith in an upright position.
9 Eliminate all the hymns even those to Jesus because they make the people think of happiness
and serenity that comes from the life of mortification and penance for God already from
childhood. Introduce new songs only to convince people that the previous rites were somehow
false. Make sure that in every Mass that there is at least one in which Jesus is not mentioned
and instead speaks only of love for men. The youth will be thrilled to hear about the love of
neighbor. Preach love, tolerance and unity. Do not mention Jesus, prohibit any announcements
of the Eucharist.
11. Discontinue the practice of celebrating the Holy Mass in the presence of the Blessed
Sacrament in the Tabernacle. Do not admit any Tabernacle on the Altars that are used for the
celebration of the Holy Mass. The board should have the appearance of a kitchen table. It
must be transportable to express that it is not at all sacred but must serve a dual purpose as, for
example, a table for conferences or for play cards on it. Later place a chair at that table. The
priest must take that position to indicate that after the Communion he rests as after a meal. The
priest must never kneel during the Mass or do genuflections. At meals, in fact, no one ever
kneels. The chair of the Priest must be placed in the place of the Tabernacle. Encourage the
people to worship and also to adore the priest instead of the Eucharist, to obey him instead
of the Eucharist. Tell the people that the priest is Christ, their leader. Place the Tabernacle in a
separate room, out of sight.
14. Try to get all the personal books of piety to disappear and destroy them. As a consequence of
this the Litanies of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, of the Mother of God, of St. Joseph will cease also
as the preparation for Holy Communion. The thanksgiving after Communion will become
superfluous as well.
29. Have the distributing of Communion done by women and lay people. You say that this is the
time of the laity. Begin with giving Communion in the hand, as do the Protestants, rather than on
the tongue. Explain that Christ did it the same way. Collect some hosts for "black masses" in our
temples. Afterwards distribute instead of the personal Communion a cup of unconsecrated hosts
that one can bring home with them. Explain to them that in this way they one can take the divine
gifts into everyday life. Place automatic dispensers of hosts for communions and name these
Tabernacles. Tell them that they must be exchanged peace signs. Encourage people to move into
the church to interrupt devotion and prayer. Do not make Signs of the Cross; in place of it instead
a sign of peace. Explain that also Christ got up to greet the Disciples. Do not allow any
concentration in such moments. The Priests must turn their back to the Eucharist and honor
the people.
Our culture has disconnected human life and human morality from the Author of human
life and morality, and thus, as Fedor Dostoevsky put it, ALL BECOMES PERMISSIBLE, except
of course the 10 Commandments and all of Gods laws! Our culture today tells us that if it feels
14 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
good, if you subjectively think it is right, if it is easy and if it satisfies you in that moment, do it! Our
culture has separated freedom for the Truth (Pope John Paul II, Evangelium Vitae).
Slowly, with great astuteness and subtleness, Satan leads us to disconnect the Eucharist from
the Real and Substantial Presence of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. As soon as Saint John the
Apostle saw the principle Celebrant of the heavenly Holy Mass, he fell at his feed as though
dead (Rev 1:17)!
Someone in the Neocatecumenal Way told me that Kiko explained that after the Second Vatican
Council many Catholics, who sought dialogue and tried to draw closer to atheists and non
believers, lost their authentic faith in the Catholic Church. But how is it that one does not
realize the same danger regarding the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in order to to make it
more understandable and acceptable?
Our Lady revealed to Father Stefano Gobbi:

Jesus is the Truth because it is He the living Word who is the font and seal of all divine
revelation. And so the ecclesiastical Masonry works to obscure his divine word, by means of
natural and rational interpretations and, in the attempt to make it more understandable and
acceptable, empties it of all its supernatural content. Thus errors are spread in every part of the
Catholic Church itself. Because of the spread of these errors, many are moving away today from
the true faith, bringing to fulfillment the prophecy which was given to you by me at Fatima: - The
times will come when many will lose the true faith (June 13, 1989).
It is lack of discipline to disregard with ease the norms which the Church has laid down for
the regulation of liturgical and ecclesiastical life. Today each one tends to direct himself according
to his own tastes or free choice, and with what scandalous facility are violated the norms of the
Church (February 2, 1979).
WHEN PARENTS CORRECT THEIR CHILDREN, how many children ask their parents questions
in order to understand better the thought and directives of their parents in order to follow these
directives better? Instead how many children have rather the attitude of what have I done
wrong, in order to try to do as much as possible as they desire? How many neocatecumens
asked me: And so, what is it that we have not done in regard to the decree of December 1,
2005? Or even to say that the decree is already out of date; people who speak in this way, are
they truly seeking what God wants, ready to loose their ideas and their attachments, or do they
want things the way they want things?!? As I wrote last month: It is in fact the diffuse opinion
among the neocatecumenals that the letter of Arinze was something provisionary, modifiable, a
simple instrumentum laboris, and that in the end their practice will be substantially approved.
Does one trust in God or does one trust in himself? How easy it is to make little compromises
(accompanied with more and more blindness) in order not to loose something to which we are
attached and thus there is not the sincere desire to discover the guidance of the Holy Spirit by
way of the Magisterium of the Church!?!
How strong it is the temptation to not take the risk of dialoguing or to label a person who is
not in agreement with us, to put the person in another category, indicating his errors or sins of
the past as if it were impossible to learn form our errors and to go forward?!? This means that
children or parishioners must not listen to their parents or pastors, because parents and pastors
have committed some errors in the past and are sinners! But who is willing to take the risk of
dialoguing in seeking the reality, the truth outside of ones own head, with the foundation of the
documents of the Magisterium of the Church and other documents outside of ones own head?
How many want to put certain information or certain facts in a closed box and embrace the easier
philosophy of life which does not lead to the Truth on the cross: Ignorance is bliss? The person
labeled not normal, or a proud bigot (because he does not do as does the majority), but willing
to open his eyes, OR THOSE INTELLIGENT AND WISE ONES (Mt 11:25; Lk 10:21) who do not
want to sincerely dialogue with those who are not in agreement with themselves? For the
accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God
(Rev 12:10; Job ch. 1). The Truth will make you free! (Jn 8:32; Jer 6:16)! How many very
intelligent scientists do not believe in the existence of the Creator of the universe? How many
very intelligent Catholics do not care about the guidance of the Magisterum of the Church?
All the words and explanations in the world cannot help to discover the wisdom of God if we
have allowed ourselves to slide into compromises. Pope Benedict and Pope John Paul II could
have offered more explanations about the necessity to follow faithfully the liturgical books, but if
there is no obedience, if there is not trust in the Magisterium of the Church; what use is an
attempt to explain the motives of a decree? If I obey only what I am in agreement, am I obeying
the Magisterium of the Church or obeying myself? Saint Augustine tells us: IT WAS PRIDE that
changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels. Humility is the foundation of
all the other virtues.
In this very short life, each one of us makes a fundamental choice for all eternity, to trust in
God or in ourselves. In heaven there is room for one God, not two. In hell, everyone believes to
be God as did the first inhabitant of hell, Lucifer (which means carrier of light) who became
Satan, the promoter of darkness, the father of lies (Jn 8:44)!
I AM TRULY CONVINCED that if Kiko, Carmen and Father Mario might have trusted in God, in
the Magisterium of the Church, instead of themselves, they would have helped many in the
Neocatecumenal Way to not gently slide into apostasy (2Thess 2:3-4) in this period of the great
tribulation (Mt 24:21)!
Let us pray for each other in order to struggle everyday to discover the uncomfortable Truth
from God, accompanied by the cross of Jesus on this earth, in order to arrive to the absolute
Truth (which makes us free) in paradise for all eternity!

I OFFER HERE SOME WRITINGS AND DOCUMENT REFERENCES OF THE POPES AND OF
THE SAINTS to help us under stand and appreciate more the greatness of the Eucharist, which
will help us to penetrate more the wisdom of the documents of the Magisterium of the Church in
regard to safeguarding the faith, love and reverential humility before the Eucharist, the source
and summit of the Christian life. (Vat. II: LG 11; CCC 1324).
Post-Synodal, Apostolic Exhortation, Sacramentum Caritatis, of the Holy Father Benedict XVI, to
the Bishops, Clergy, Consecrated Persons, and the Lay Faithful, on the Eucharist, as the Source
And Summit of the Church's Life and Mission (02-22-2007; http://w2.vatican.va/content/benedictxvi/en/apost_exhortations/documents/hf_ben-xvi_exh_20070222_sacramentum-caritatis.html).

/news_services/liturgy/details/ns_lit_doc_20110615_disposizioni-integrative_it.html).
Saint Martin de Porres: He loved the most holy Eucharist also with complete singlemindedness, often adoring it for hours on end in the sanctuary of the church and longed to
receive it as often as possible as the food of his soul. (Office of Readings; 3 November).
Saint John of Kenty: Each day, when he had finished his work, he would go straight from the
college to the church. There before Christ present in the Eucharist he would spend long hours in
prayer and contemplation. The God of whom he spoke was the same God who was in his heart.
(Breviary; Dicember 23).
Saint John Bosco would say: Make frequent visits to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament and the
devil will be powerless against you!
A Damned Priest Warns About Hell

A mother of a family is a reparatory soul that since 27 years old, or rather from her fourteenth
year, was tormented by terrible crisis of fear and periods of total insomnia. She was treated
during eight sessions in the clinic, with all the modern means of medicine and psychiatry.
When, after a rigorous treatment of sleep, discharged as an unexplained case, a well-known
exorcist, fortuitously met, determined that it was an irrefutable case of possession. After an
exorcism which was attended by several priests, in Fontanelle - Montichiari (Brescia), angelic
demons (fallen angels) and also human demons (damned men) had to make, by order of the Holy
Virgin, cautionary disclosures addressed to the Church.
Since 1975, shortly after that possession was established by a famous exorcist (Father Ernest
Fischer), in addition to a number of human and angelic demons (damned and demons), VERDI
GARANDIEU was also forced to manifest himself. He would have exercised his priestly ministry
in the seventeenth century in a village in the Pyrenees of the diocese of Tarbes. What we know of
his life is known to us by the revelations that he had to make during an exorcism, April 5, 1978.
Here are some of the revelations of the damned priest:
Indifference towards the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
V: ... because I had already left the way that the Holy Spirit has indicated to me and prescribed
for me! It is terribly tragic, much more than you people might be able to think about it. It is all the
more tragic because a priest (crying) that no longer gives a good example and is about to leave
the path of virtue draws with him a mass of people or at least a good number, and this also
begins at the Mass. From beginning to end a priest does not celebrate the Holy Mass with depth
and compassion if his priestly conduct is not in conformity. He will arrive even, in each case it
happened to me ... (almost crying).
E: Speak the truth, Verdi Garandieu, only the truth in the name of Jesus Christ and the Most
Blessed Virgin ...!
V: ... he will come to the point of feeling repugnance for the Mass, to the point of preferring that it
does not exist. And yet, because he is a priest, he says it, he must celebrate it before the people.
Perhaps, in my case, the Sacred Host was still consecrated, and still is with thousands and
thousands of priests who still believe, because God is merciful, because the faithful come with
piety in the heart, and cannot know what is in the hearts of the priests, but, but (with an exhorting
voice) woe, woe ...
(A Damned Priest Warns About Hell; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2013/12/damned-priest.html).
Father Pellegrino Maria Ernetti (1925-1994), a Benedictine Monk in the Abbey of Saint George
Major in Venice (Italy), where he received hundreds of people each week to undergo exorcism,
began to record on magnetic tapes these exorcisms, and so little by little emerged a catechesis
on the devil.
Here are some revelations recorded by Father Ernetti:
B) The meal where you eat the flesh and the blood of that crucified One that I killed It is
here where I loose my battles, it is here where I find myself disarmed I no longer have
strength to fight, those who nourish themselves with this flesh and drink this blood become very
strong against me, they become invincible against my shrewd seductions and temptations, they
seem different from the others, it seems that they have a special light and a very quick
intelligence they reject me immediately and they distance themselves from me and they crush
me as if I were a dog what sadness, what pain to deal with these CANNIBALS But I fiercely
persecute them and many go and eat that host in sin hahaha what happiness what
contentment what joy they hate their God and they eat Him, hahahaha! My victory
victory a hurrah How senseless are those who waste hours and hours during the day and
night, kneeling TO ADORE A PIECE OF BREAD hidden in a box on the altar of that false God.
How much these people anger me! They destroy all my works that I obtain through so many
sacrilegious Christians, priests, sisters and bishops How many sacrileges I continually reap, it
is my incessant victory How much pain How much rage these irrational adorations!

HUMILITY OF THE SAINTS BEFORE THE EUCHARIST:

(in contrast with our presumption!)
March 21, 1935. Often during Mass, I see the Lord in my soul; I feel His presence which
pervades my being. I sense His divine gaze; I have long talks with Him without saying a word; I
know what His divine Heart desires, and I always do what will please Him the most. 1 love Him to
distraction, and I feel that I am being loved by God. At those times when I meet with God deep
16 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
within myself, I feel so happy that I do not know how to express it. Such moments are short, for
the soul could not bear it for long, as separation from the body would be inevitable. Though these
moments are very short, their power, however, which is transmitted to the soul, remains with it for
a very long time. Without the least effort, I experience the profound recollection which then
envelops me-and it does not diminish even if I talk with people, nor does it interfere with the
performance of my duties. I feel the constant presence of God without any effort of my soul. I
know that I am united with Him as closely as a drop of water is united with the bottomless
ocean (Diary of Saint Faustina; no. 411).
St. Therese of Lisieux:

I am just a speck of dust, but I want to make my dwelling in the shadow of the sanctuary with
the prisoner of love. My soul longs for the host; I love Him and want nothing more. It is a hidden
God who attracts me. I am the atom of Jesus Christ.
THE SECRET OF MARY by St.Louis de Montfort

37. 3. Consecrating ourselves in this way to Jesus through Mary implies placing our good deeds
in Mary's hands. Now, although these deeds may appear good to us, they are often defective,
and not worthy to be considered and accepted by God, before whom even the stars lack
brightness. Let us pray, then, to our dear Mother and Queen that having accepted our poor
present, she may purify it, sanctify it, beautify it, and so make it worthy of God. Any good our
soul could produce is of less value to God our Father, in winning his friendship and favor,
than a worm-eaten apple would be in the sight of a king, when presented by a poor
peasant to his royal master as payment for the rent of his farm. But what would the peasant do
if he were wise and if he enjoyed the esteem of the queen? Would he not present his apple first to
her, and would she not, out of kindness to the poor man and out of respect for the king, remove
from the apple all that was maggoty and spoilt, place it on a golden dish, and surround it with
flowers? Could the king then refuse the apple? Would he not accept it most willingly from the
hands of his queen who showed such loving concern for that poor man? "If you wish to present
something to God, no matter how small it may be," says St Bernard, "place it in the hands of Mary
to ensure its certain acceptance".

I, Father Joseph, received this email, February 23, 2015, from a neocatecumen in a community
that I help out from 2005 to 2015.
Dear Father Joe,

Do you think to carry forth your pastoral mission instead of continuing to spread these
inaccuracies by way of Facebook and by way of email, and to pass so much time in the digital
world.. you do not share our Way you are free to do so remember though how you helped
us for years and this instrument, in the hands of the CHURCH, helped you for years you are
such an intelligent person that you are not able to see the good that this Way produces in the
people and in the ordained persons and also in the church I wish you a good pilgrimage of life,
hoping to see you again soon
Peace, David
-------
The reply of Father Joseph Dwight:
Dear David,
Thank you for your email. I thank you also for your concern for me and for others.
But I am sorry that you do as so many others, to not want to consider another point of view in a
true dialogue, with the true motive of seeking the truth together, with trust in our Holy Mother
Church. Every morning for the Office of Readings, we pray the Invitatory Psalm which invites us
to trust in God and it reminds us of all the benefits of God and to listen to his voice! Harden not
your hearts as at Meribah, as on that day at Massah in the desert! How easy it is to do as
the Israelites, with harden hearts!
A great number of people in ecclesial movements are attached to feeling important or fulfilled or
to be part of an important movement in the Church, and do not want to consider any other
point of view or another explanation; they want to defend at all costs their group and their
movement and their experience.
Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger said on May 27 1998: THERE IS MANIFESTED MANY

DANGERS, as well as the ways of overcoming, in the (ecclesial) Movement. THERE IS THE
THREAT OF UNILATERALITY which leads to exaggerating the specific mandate which has its
origin in a given period or in strength of a particular charism is a fact THAT CAN LEAD TO
ABSOLUTIZING ones own movement, which ends up identifying itself with the Church herself, to
understand itself as the way for all while in fact this one way can be made known in different
ways. (http://www.rns-italia.it/vademecum/Vademecum.htm).
THERE IS A STRONG TENDENCY FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE ECCLESIAL MOVEMENTS TO

ABSOLUTIZING ONES OWN MOVEMENT especially today when we find ourselves more than
ever in a social, cultural and spiritual crisis at all levels. But we priests must seek that maturity to
not run from this lack of maturity which suffocates the life which is there, but to stand with Mary at
the foot of the cross, waiting with patience and with our example, their Christian maturity. One
17 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
makes a journey of faith and maturity together, each respecting the role and vocation of the other.
(see also: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/apost_exhortations/documents/hf_jpii_exh_30121988_christifideles-laici_en.html).
I have come to realize that the more time a person is in the Neocatecumenale Way, very often
the more one become habituated to feel important in the Church and before other people in
the Church, and less willing to go with Jesus in the direction of finishing life totally humiliated on
the cross.
I wrote in an article, more than a year ago, that upset several catechists of the Neocatecumenale
Way:
When one reads the diary of Saint Faustina, one sees that while she progressed in union with
Jesus, she was MORE AND MORE AWARE OF HER MISERY, and at the same time more
trustful in the mercy of God with much gratitude toward God for this inestimable gift of His mercy!
Instead, very often, the more that we go forward in an ecclesial movement or in or priestly
ministry, we believe to be less pitiful and more worthy to stand before God and men. And when a
person does not do what he must do according to our criteria as leaders in an ecclesial
movement o as a pastor of a parish, instead of trying to understand the situation and the motives
of the person, who often we treat this person badly, very badly. Is this the way to love our
neighbor as ourselves? What remains after death for all eternity, a great work that we believe to
have done or our personal virtue? Saint Bonaventure and many other saints tell us that without
humility there is not virtue, and there is also spiritual blindness! (Visit also in Italian: Il Dio Infinito
Fra Noi; http://cibo-spir.blogspot.it/2014/01/il-dio-infinito-fra-noi.html).
Do we want to help each other reciprocally to seek what God wants in this situation, or do we
only want to label (digital world) each other in order not to listen to one another so as not to
consider what one says or writes, and to defend our position at all costs?
God can reveal the truth in the dense fog by way of people that God chooses, often with
instruments who are small and humble and with less intelligence. For I tell you, God is able from
these stones to raise up children to Abraham (Mt 3:9).
Why did you not have the courage to enter into what I had written, some phrase that I wrote,
and to explain to me that a phrase that I wrote was not in harmony with a document of the
Magisterium of the Church, instead of criticizing everything in a general way? This would be a
mature way, a true act of love for me and for others! If one writes: to pass so much time in the
digital world, is this not a general judgment, diversion to lead us further away from the
fundamental discourse in order not to confront that which we do not want to confront in a dialogue
(also by email) based on the documents of the Church? Or to write: to carry forth your pastoral
mission instead of continuing to spread these inaccuracies by way of Facebook and by way of
email. But do you have the courage to explain these inaccuracies not according to relativism of
your head or of others around you, but according to the documents of the Magisterium of the
Church, and the writings of the popes and of the saints? You were very concerned because I put
my article on Facebook, but for you is the Truth important for you? What is more important, to
defend the importance, the prestige of your group, or to defend and to follow the Truth which is
crucified on the cross?
You, like so many others, do not want to consider the possibility of the seriousness of the
situation, today in the Church and in the world, as well as the situation of the Neocatecumenal
Way. After having written quite a bit in my two previous emails, I finished the second email with
the phrase:
In an article, to which I made reference, one finds the seriousness of the situation according to
Pope Benedict:
(http://chiesa.espresso.repubblica.it/articolo/1350217?)
ROME, April 11, 2012 With a letter written personally to Cardinal William J. Levada, Benedict
XVI has ordered the congregation for the doctrine of the faith to examine whether the
Neocatechumenal Masses are or are not in keeping with the liturgical teaching and practice of the
Catholic Church.
A "PROBLEM," IN THE POPE'S JUDGMENT, THAT IS "OF GREAT URGENCY" FOR THE
WHOLE CHURCH.
Benedict XVI has been ALARMED for some time about the particular ways in which the
communities of the Neocatechumenal Way celebrate their Masses, on Saturday evening, in
separate locations.
In reality, the danger feared by Benedict XVI and by many bishops as demonstrated by the
many complaints that have been made to the Vatican is that the particular ways in which the
Neocatechumenal communities all over the world celebrate their Masses may introduce into the
Latin liturgy a new de facto "rite" artificially composed by the founders of the Way, foreign to the
liturgical tradition, full of doctrinal ambiguities and a source of division in the community of the
faithful.
As I had included in my last email:

Also Pope John Paul II gave the same recall to the Neocatecumens:
Celebrate the Eucharist and, above all, Easter, with true piety, with great dignity, with love for the
liturgical rites of the Church, with exact observance of the established norms by the
competent authority, with the will of communion with all the brothers (In Italian: Osservatore
Romano, 11 febbraio 1983; http://www.geocities.ws/Athens/Delphi/6919/OR110283.htm).
According to you David, these two popes, John Paul II and Benedict, they are not very
enlightened or not guided by the Holy Spirit or they have even made a mistake because they
both said to the neocatecumens to observe the established norms, the liturgical books, with
fidelity as is required of all the other Catholics in the whole world?
How easy it is for us to put this great urgency, this alarm of Pope Benedict into the
category of an exaggeration of Pope Benedict or of others like Father Joe. Are we attached to
something that we want and thus we are not willing to consider another point of view, even from
the Vicar of Christ! Do we believe to be above the guidance of the Catholic Church? Do we use
18 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
all of our intelligence in order to justify our position without taking the risk to have a true dialogue,
seeking the truth without personal attachments, putting on the table the documents of the
Magisterium of the Church, and the writings of the popes and of the saints? When we are
attached to something that we do not want to loose, very often we ask questions not to learn
something from someone who is not in agreement with us, but rather to put in place the other
person according to our thought or idea, as did the Pharisees with Jesus with the questions (the
snares). This is how so many lawyers do in order to defend their client at all costs, without
seeking the truth, without considering the possibility that the client is not saying the truth. I met
here in Italy one of the lawyers of the famous trial case in California more than twenty years ago,
of O.J. Simpson. What a spectacle on American TV everyday for several months; what a mockery
of justice!
Reading your email, I do not believe you are willing, like so many others, to consider the point of
view of Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict to follow faithfully the liturgical books for the
whole Church, and even less, to obey the Magisterium of the Church. If the founders of the
movement do not obey the Magisterium of the Church, the Neocatecumenal Way is not as you
wrote: this instrument, in the hands of the CHURCH if the founders obey only that which they
are in agreement with the Magisterium of the Church! I have a very strong impression, after
having helped out the neocatechumens for ten years, that what Kiko says is much more important
than what the Magisterium of the Church says for the great majority of the neocatecumens, just
like their leader, Kiko!
The great majority of Catholics today see religion, the parish, the pastor, ecclesial movements, as
something that might be useful for themselves, rather than something that might help them to
discover the will of God and to help them to do the will of God! Thus they are looking in the
wrong direction, they are not interested in a point of view that does not lead them to what they
want! Without a fundamental change in direction, without a fundamental change in where they put
their trust (in ourselves or in God), all the books and documents of the Church will not help people
to realize that they are not living the Our Father: Thy will be done, not mine!
God said to Moses: Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you that I may prove them,
whether they will walk in my law or not. I have heard the murmurings of the people of Israel
(Ex 16:4,11). The people of Israel murmured even after God gave them bread from heaven, as so
many Catholics do not respect the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ in the
Eucharist. After the resurrection of Jesus, God speaks by way of the Magisterium of the Church.
There has been more murmurings against the Magisterium of the Church in the last 50 years
(Humanae Vita, Memoriale Domini!) than ever before in the history of the Church. It is very
interesting what Saint Francis of Assisi prophesied:
2. The power of the demons will be greater than usual, the immaculate purity of our religious
community and of others, will withered to the point that very few Christians will want to obey the
true Sovereign Pontiff and the Roman Church with a sincere heart and perfect charity. At the
decisive moment of this crisis, a personage not canonically elected, raised to the Pontificate,
will endeavor to administer shrewdly to many the mortal poison of his error. (http://spirfood.blogspot.it/2013/11/prophecy-st-francis.html).
I repeat the urgency, and the great danger:

Cardinal Ivan Dias often cited the phrase of Pope John Paul II: We are standing before today
the greatest fight that humanity has ever seen. I do not believe that the Christian community has
totally understood this. We are today before the FINAL CONFRONTATION between the Church
and the anti-Church, between the Gospel and the anti-Gospel (http://www.lastampa.it/2007/12
/13/blogs/san-pietro-e-dintorni/lotta-finale-all-anticristo-VjY7tBXJk6gNU3YmWcyOvN
/pagina.html).
Strongly surrounded by the atmosphere of relativism today, it is easy to let our hearts to become
attached to so many things, not only material, but also our importance before other creatures, and
thus we have learned many ways to put aside the writings of the Magisterium of the Church and
of the saints and of the popes, in order to justify: Ignorance is bliss!
Our Lady at Akita, Japan, said (October 13, 1973):
The work of the devil will infiltrate even the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals
opposing cardinals, bishops against other bishops. The Church will be full of those who
accept compromise (http://www.miraclerosarymission.org/akita.htm).
I understand this great urgency, this alarm of Pope Benedict! This is why I also put my
article on Facebook. With every member of the Neocatecumenal Way, going door to door for two
years in their formation, the Neocatecumenal Way has grown quickly, precisely within the Church,
but without obedience to the Church, to the Magisterium of the Church. The way of celebrating
the Holy Mass is fundamental (Lex orandi, lex credenda!)! If one obeys the liturgical books of
the Church, one maintains and one helps to grow the cult of God; if one does not obey the
liturgical books of the Church, one slowly goes, in an imperceptible way, toward the cult of man,
which is the fundamental strategy of the prince of the world, Satan!
David, you wrote: you are such an intelligent person that you are not able to see the good that
this Way produces in the people and in the ordained persons and also in the church. And so
according to you, Pope Benedict and Pope John Paul II are at least a little crazy and not
balanced, as you believe to be, and do not see things in the right way? According to you, Satan
is no longer able to disguise himself as an angel of light, or perhaps Satan converted?!? The
masters of spirituality have always explained to us that this angel of light always offers us at least
90% of the truth to destroy us, like a drop of poison in a nice glass of red wine; otherwise who
would fall into his traps?!? Behold the importance of obedience to the Magisterium of the Church!
According to you David, the truth is established by the majority of the people in the group or
by the Catholics or by God? And if you respond by God, how can one discover the truth? By the
vote of the people, or by the polls, or ??? You as a Catholic, why did Jesus found a Church? Of
what use is the Magisterium of the Church, according to you, or according to the great majority of
the Catholics today? Who do men say?
Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do
men say that the Son of man is?" And they said, "Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah,
and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets." He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
Simon Peter replied, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." And Jesus answered
him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my
Father who is in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, * and on this rock * I will build my church,
19 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
and the powers of death * shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of
heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on
earth shall be loosed in heaven." (Mt 16:13-19).
The men had an opinion, but the first pope, Peter, did not offer an opinion. Why David do you
believe more the opinions of the people in the community, or the other catechists, or even the
founders of the Neocatecumenal Way, more than the Magisterium of the Church???
I come from the United States where there are more than 30,000 independent protestant groups
who believe in the same Jesus Christ, the same God, but interpret the same Bible in different
ways, often in contradictory ways. Do you believe David that Jesus did not know about this
problem? Do you believe that Jesus who said to us that the Truth shall set you free, who said
that I am the Truth, that Jesus did not offer the possibility for those of good will to discover and
to live the Truth who is Jesus Christ? Behold the Magisterium of the Church!
David, after 15 years in the Way, you have heard many catechesis, you gave many catechesis,
but after everything, for you, of what use is the Church, what is the Church? The documents
are only a collection of opinions??? The Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults is only a
summary of many opinions gathered together in 2000 years?!?
If the authority of the Church, as God intended, matters very little to you, that which I wrote
matters even less to you. I can make many references to the documents of the Church, but we do
not realize how far we have slid into the atmosphere of relativism which totally surrounds us
today. Relativism is like acid rain, which destroys everything, and we do not realize how far we
have slid into relativism without a lot of sincere prayer, in true humility, with the help of our
Eucharistic Lord and Mary. You have your opinion and I have mine, and the Church has her
opinion, and each pope has his opinion. We are all happy and full of exuberance! But if all is
relative, then also relativism is relative, an inherent contradiction! There is no longer the
absolute Truth; how nice, what freedom; we are free from the absolute Truth! And thus the
documents are not important. God must change according to what the world wants in each
epoch. Surrounded by this atmosphere of relativism, I understand why you think something is
missing in the brain of Father Joe, a little stupid, or he has lost some balance in his closure in the
digital world, because Father Joe makes references to the documents of the Church when the
whole world today is totally into relativism and thus everything changes as we wish. G.K.

On The World Over April 9, 2010: George Weigel & Frank Cottrell Boyce
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NUgaRrHj8k), George Weigel said: Christianity, and
specifically the Catholic Church, is the last obstacle still standing on the chess board to a
sweep of the board by the forces of what Pope Benedict called the dictatorship of relativism. The
marriage question is engaged here, life issues are engaged here. This is all of a piece
If a person does not do as the huge herd running in the world of relativism, toward the cult
of man, then he is labels outside of the world, not politically correct. But God is outside of the
world, and how can we discover the mentality of God when our criteria is based on what the
majority of the people think, above all today in the most wicked generation in the history of the
world? According to you David, all of the hermits are crazy because they detached themselves
from the mentality of the world? How many times in history the world drifted far from God but
some saint succeeded in escaping from the wicked generation (Mt 17:17; Lk 9:41), precisely to
save himself and that wicked generation?!? GOD IS NEEDED! Saint Anthony, Abbot, went into
the desert; Saint Benedict went to Subiaco; Saint Francis went to Laverna! According to the
mentality of the world, they are all crazy because they did not embrace the mentality of the world?
After my decision to no longer celebrate a Mass not approved by the Magisterium of the Church,
a few people telephoned me to ask me how I was. When I responded well, they asked me if that
is the truth, with an attitude or even the hope that I was not doing ok, because how is this
possible since I am detached from their special group!?! They must convince themselves that
Father Joe is not well in order to justify not listening to what I want to say and their way of doing
things. The cult of man! Is not my desert, my Subiaco, my Laverna, my Mount Tabor, an hour
everyday before the infinite God in the Tabernacle, one hour beyond the time of the Holy Mass
and of the Liturgy of the Hours? The saints passed as much time as possible before the infinite
God in the Tabernacle! If God is not before the neighbor, the love that we believe to have for the
neighbor is totally human love, nothing divine!
It seems to me that to have lived in two cultures, with two languages, helps a lot to open ones
mental horizons, to be able to see the culture of origin from another point of view and to be able
to see another culture from the point of view of the first culture. So many insecure people do not
listen to another point of view but rather criticize, and even condemn, those who do not think like
they do! When we have an experience of only one ecclesial movement there is the great
tendency and danger of absolutizing ones own moment and to judge everything from one point
of view! Archbishop Fulton Sheen, commenting on the Magi and the pastors at the birth of Our
Lord, said that the Magi read many books and thus understood that they did not know everything;
the people who have read only one book believe to know everything!
Are the saints who left the world all crazy and full of pride according to you, David, because they
did not follow the mentality of the world, the herd that stampedes with the cult of man,
because they entered into another type of digital world, and then they were criticized and
condemned by the world? My aunt, Mother Agnes of Divine Love, a cloistered nun, Carmelite,
was not prudent or wise according to the people of the world? The world says that these nuns do
not concretely contribute something to the world, and thus they have wasted their lives, which are
not worth anything! But to the contrary, the Church says that the life of prayer and penance and
sacrifice, like the Carmelite nuns, is the higher vocation! But all the saints had in common humility
and obedience to the Magisterium of the Church, not to themselves and neither to a group that
does not obey the Magisterium of the Church!!!
Behold What the devil dislikes:

F) I am very vexed by those little servants with the head covered who abandon all and
everything in order to close themselves within four walls, in order to sacrifice all that is beautiful
and good for that God that only I have succeeded in defeating Day and night they mortify
themselves with night prayers and reckless and insubstantial fasting, they do not sleep
sufficiently, they do not eat according to the needs of the appetite and of the body which demands
the necessary diet, they do not speak freely anywhere and always taciturn sulky looking
full of sadness, the most inhuman they pray, they sing and all this sacrifice they do for who?
For what particular motive, for what ends, for what results? Fortunately the vast majority are not
very intelligent dull witted lacking in willpower who let themselves be dragged in by some
dissatisfied priests poor sissies who do not know the true pleasure of sex with all of its relative
pleasures! Poor little servants, who have never felt the sensations of the flesh, by way of
intercourse and by the kisses of my men! And yet how many of them I cause to fall, I reduce
them to a wretched life, sterile, deprived of all fervor, throwing them into the greatest
lukewarmness Yes, I butcher them because above all I fear the cloistered ones I fear
greatly! They are my most terrible and well-trained enemies, they rip from my hands so many
souls of every sex, of every class and condition What terrible enemies when they begin to
pray for the conversion of a soul to snatch from me, they no longer stop, no longer no longer
20 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
they are tenacious and obstinate! And then if it is not enough the long and exhausting prayers to
their false crucified God, who they shamelessly call their SPOUSE, they then begin with the
arduous penances of every type what enemies what storm troopers! I have tried many times
to diminish the vocations to this stupid life but unfortunately I have not yet succeeded there
are still too many stupid little and foolish women, even though many times they have college
degrees What enemies! (Likes and Dislikes of the Devil; http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2014/01
/likes-and-dislikes-of-devil.html).
I realize that my two previous emails that I already sent are worth very little for the great majority
of people in the Catholic Church and in the Neocatecumenal Way, and among a great number of
priests and bishops today who no longer obey the Magisterium of the Church. Because by now,
totally surrounded by the atmosphere of relativism, like the air we breath, the documents
of the Magisterium of the Church do not count for much at all! What then is our criteria of
discernment, if not the Magisterium of the Church?!? If we put aside the law of God explained in
its fullness in the documents of the Church, who wins the argument or establishes the law of the
land? The strongest one!?! Behold the dictatorship of relativism, as Pope Benedict told us!
The devil leads us to look at the exterior things only, which become a distraction, a diversion,
so as not to look at the interior content, to not look at everything from the point of view of the
Creator of the universe. Thus one does not consider what the person is trying to say, but one
looks at how the person is not like the others, he is not normal (like all the prophets!), he must
have a problem, he has made mistakes in the past, so it is not taken into consideration what the
person is trying to say. But normally God chooses the most ill-fated to do His work for two
reasons: 1) only God could have done this with such a miserable instrument, 2) God works only
in the humble because the humble trust in God, they make room inside of themselves for God
instead of for themselves, and thus they become instruments of God and not of themselves!
Cursed is the man who trusts in man Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord (Jer 17:5,7)!
The devil plays the same game of distractions, of diversion regarding the Church,
disseminating slander and lies; he shows us only the sinners in the Church and in the history of
the Church the scandals of some priests, the false presentation of the crusades so that the
people do not arrive at the content, that is, God has given us a guide, a Church made up of
sinners, not by perfect angels from heaven, as the critics believe to be! One of the fundamental
trials for each one of us is to seek out and find the pearl of great price (Mt 13:46), the hidden
treasure (Mt 13:44) inside the Church, not withstanding all the filth around that pearl, that
treasure, that diamond inside the box often covered with the excrements of the sinners and of the
scandals! The protestants and the sects believe to be better, more perfect, and thus have refused
the true Church and have lost the fullness of the means of sanctification, the sacraments and
especially the Eucharist, and the fullness of the truth with the guidance of the Magisterium of the
Church (Lumen Gentium 8) made up of fragile and weak men. One of the strongest proofs that
the Catholic Church is the true Church is precisely this, that notwithstanding all the negative
things outside and inside the Church, she is still here on the earth after 2000 years, with the Truth
that does not change! How else could Jesus assure us that the Truth shall set you free (Jn
8:32), or I am the Truth (Jn 14:6)?!? It is very important to study the true history! Only God could
do this miracle. When Napoleon said to a cardinal that he will destroy the Church, the cardinal
responded: If we bishops have not succeeded in destroying the Church in 1900 years, how do
you think you can do it? The Mass is valid even if the priest is a great sinner and in the state of
mortal sin. But the people, again, look at the exterior, and many do not go to the Mass of that
priest, even though in that Mass the bread and wine become the Body and the Blood of Jesus
Christ, while the poor priest, not repentant, commits a personal sacrilege! When Saint Francis
met a scandalous priest, he did not reprimand that priest as the people expected, but he knelt
down before that poor priest, kissed his hands, and said to the people around him that from these
hands I receive my Lord in the Eucharist and the pardon of my sins! After this, that poor priest
sent away the women in his house and converted with much penance.
Seventy years ago, many Catholics trusted the Church without explanation. Now we must,
with great effort, rediscover that God gave us only one Church to guide us in the dour combat
(CCC 409) of life, in this valley of tears, in this cold and dense fog in the Catholic Church,
provoked by the father of lies (Jn 8:44) who sows many deceptions and lies continuously, as an
angel of light (2Cor 11:14). The Israelites abandoned God many times, and every once in a
while they surrendered to the man of God that God had given them, that is, the judges and the
prophets. In the book of Judges alone, the Israelites went through this cycle of abandoning and
returning to God seven times!
Our Lady revealed to Father Stefano Gobbi (02-09-1985): Darkness, with A THICK, COLD
FOG, has entered the Church, obscuring it in the splendor of its truth. For this reason, every day,
my word is forming you to the spirit of wisdom, that you may always see, in the light, the truth
which my Son has taught you and proclaim it with courage to all in its integrity.
From some crevice, the smoke of Satan has entered the temple of God (Pope Paul VI;
June 29, 1972; http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/paul_vi/homilies/1972/documents/hf_pvi_hom_19720629_it.html).
Certainly there are the sects. But according to the world today, totally immersed into
relativism, almost all of the saints had the sectarian mentality, because their gaze was totally
and continuously turned to God. Look at how many saints left the world to find God! How many
people, according to their personal vocation, do not have this courage because human respect is
so important to them. If any one comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and
wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple
(Lk 14:26). Jesus is very demanding, more than any other founder of a religion because Jesus is
God and can offer heaven! The world believes that Jesus is truly crazy, a fundamentalist,
according to the mentality today.
In a certain sense it is a miracle to get to paradise, because it is necessary to detach oneself

from the mentality of the world (Jn 17:6; Rm 12:2) which means to not go along with the vast
majority. There is always the temptation to judge others who do not believe as we do. But Jesus
is radical! There is no doubt! According to the world all of the true Christians are in a cult because
Jesus asks for everything, even to loose our friends and relatives. And even to be despised as a
egotist and crazy person by the people who surround us. We are truly in the times when the true
followers of Christ will be killed in the name of God. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever
kills you will think he is offering service to God (Jn 16:2; Mt 24:9)!
6. Those who preserve their fervor and adhere to virtue with love and ZEAL FOR THE TRUTH,
will suffer injuries and, persecutions as rebels and schismatics; for their persecutors, urged
on by the evil spirits, will say they are rendering a great service to God by destroying such
21 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
pestilent men from the face of the earth. But the Lord will be the refuge of the afflicted, and will
save all who trust in Him. And in order to be like their Head, [Christ] these, the elect, will act with
confidence, and by their death will purchase for themselves eternal life; choosing to obey God
rather than man, they will fear nothing, and they will prefer to perish rather than consent to
falsehood and perfidy. (The Prophecy of Saint Francis (Assisi); http://spir-food.blogspot.it
/2013/11/prophecy-st-francis.html).
And so, if it is difficult to distinguish between people who are in the cults not of God and those
who truly follow Jesus totally even to the point of despising the world and even their life, who can
help us to distinguish the difference, the right path? The opinion of the majority of the
people? If we throw out the guidance of the Magisterium of the Church, what do you offer me
David to help me to discern, to distinguish between good and evil? Your opinion? The descision
of a founder of a movement? What does 2000 years of history tell us when there were moments
and situations similar to what we see today in the Church?
The devil has worked hard to undermine authority, non only that of the Church but also of
parents, so that children follow the mentality of the world, not of the parents. But who is the prince
of the world (Jn 12:31; 14:30)? If the devil has led us to not care about the documents of the
Church nor the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults, we will be formed by who, by which
group? In the end there is only heaven or hell for all eternity! In heaven there is the Truth (Jn
14:6); in hell there is the father of lies (Jn 8:44)!
DAVID, HOW CAN WE DISCERN IN THIS SITUATION, THE NEOCATECUMENAL MASS?

Behold the fundamental question! What are the fundamental guide posts? Have we slowly
embraced the agenda of Freemasonry to throw out the absolute Truth so that the Freemasonry
can form our brains, and to lead us where their head, Satan, decides? If we do not have the
anchor of the Church, the guidance of the Church which explains to us the Truth of God which
does not change, then where are we going, how do we decide things, how can we discern good
or evil, for our true good, and for the good of our children and of the society? Without this anchor
in the great storm on the sea of life, this dour combat (CCC 409), where is our little boat of our
life going, or the boat of our community, or the boat of an ecclesial movement? Is there a better
anchor than the Magisterium of the Church, David? The Church is not the Author of Truth but the
handmaid of Truth!
David, are you trying to discover together what Jesus wants, or what you want, and therefore
you do not want to have an open and sincere dialogue with the risk of discovering something that
you do not want? I am not saying that I have all the answers in my pocket, and neither are you
saying this. But I am saying dialogue as Pope John Paul II encouraged us many times to do. A
sincere dialogue is to not ask questions to put in line the other person according to our head and
without reference to the documents of the Magisterium of the Church, but rather to allow each
one to offer his thoughts based on documents and on reality, not according to relativism, of which
Pope Benedict said that it is "the most profound difficulty of our time.
In his homily at the Mass preceding the conclave that quickly elected him Pope Benedict XVI,
then Cardinal Ratzinger said: Today, having a clear faith based on the Creed of the Church IS
OFTEN LABELED AS FUNDAMENTALISM. Whereas relativism, that is, letting oneself be
"tossed here and there, carried about by every wind of doctrine", seems the only attitude that can
cope with modern times. We are building a dictatorship of relativism that does not recognize
anything as definitive and whose ultimate goal consists solely of one's own ego and desires.
(http://www.vatican.va/gpII/documents/homily-pro-eligendo-pontifice_20050418_en.html;
http://www.ignatiusinsight.com/features2005/colson_relativism_may05.asp).
To some parishioners who grumble because I do not preach or bless a Christianity without the
cross of which they are used to, I say: If I preach according to my head and not according to
the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults, I, Father Joe, will go to hell, and I will not
go to hell for anyone! Today, more than ever, there are a great number of priests who do not
preach according to the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults and they risk going very
deeply into hell, and they lead with them many souls, all those who believed and lived their easier
and more comfortable lies. This is exactly what Our Lady had Saint Michael the Archangel
communicate at Garabandal, Spain, in 1965, precisely when there was a great rebellion at all
levels of the Church against Humanae Vitae! The family is the fundamental cell of society and
from which every human person has his origins. Behold the fundamental attack of our enemy,
who wants to destroy us! If one parent encourages the children to follow Christs commandments
with the cross, and the other parent says that this is not necessary because God loves you, who
will the children follow? The easier way! If one priest in a zone of 10 priests preaches the whole
Gospel, without remaining silent about the more difficult parts of the Gospel explained by the
Magisterium of the Church, which priest will the people follow, and which priest will the people
criticize?
A great number of people are on broad road, covered with sand and flowers, full of joy,
music and all sorts of pleasures. People walked along it, dancing and enjoying themselves.
They reached the end without realizing it. And at the end of the road there was a horrible
precipice; that is, the abyss of hell. The souls fell blindly into it; as they walked, so they fell. And
their number was so great that it was impossible to count them. And I saw the other road, or
rather, a path, for it was narrow and strewn with thorns and rocks; and the people who walked
along it had tears in their eyes, and all kinds of suffering befell them. Some fell down upon the
rocks, but stood up immediately and went on. At the end of the road there was a magnificent
garden filled with all sorts of happiness, and all these souls entered there. At the very first instant
they forgot all their sufferings (Diary of Saint Faustina, no. 153). Today, I was led by an Angel to
the chasms of hell But I noticed one thing: that most of THE SOULS THERE ARE THOSE
WHO DISBELIEVED THAT THERE IS A HELL (Diary, 741) (http://www.saint-faustina.com/Diary
/DMIMS1.shtml).
Ignorance is bliss! But if one does like this one does not unmask the angel of light (2Cor
11:14), one does not go toward true liberty, because the uncomfortable truth sets us free, not the
truth according to our heads of relativism, or according to the world, that is, according to the
prince of this world, Satan (Jn 12:31; 14:30)!
Take courage David, seek the uncomfortable truth by way of dialogue even with those who are
not in agreement with you!
Do we want reality and the truth as we want it, or do we confront reality as the reality is, and
as the truth is, as do mature adults?!? Unfortunately, the devil has ferociously attacked, in a very
underhanded and sly way, the fathers of the families, the priests and the bishops, to lead them to
not live their vocation from God, as men, to not be ready to offer the uncomfortable truth on the
cross, to not be ready to sacrifice themselves for their wives, for their families, for their parishes,
22 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
for their dioceses, for the society and for the whole world. And thus many youth and adults today
did not have a father or a pastor as an evangelical model, like Jesus, in order to assimilate and to
imitate this male model of God in the period of formation especially as a child up to 12 years of
age, when the child is fundamentally formed. The television today presents males as misfits,
wimps, and cowards, and it strongly pushes us to be politically correct, but not correct according
to Divine Revelation, not according to a true man of God! Today there is greatly lacking personal
discipline to be able to seek and to do and to proclaim the crucified Truth, and to be ready to
remain alone on the cross with Jesus abandoned, or at the foot of the cross with Mary desolate,
for the true good of others, for the redemption of the world!
Dear David, for your own good I write these things. How many children, today more than ever, did
not have a father who loved his children enough to discipline his children? It was recounted on
EWTN (TV) that a man in prison for more than 20 years said that his Dad did not love him
because his Dad never gave him discipline as a true father, who loves his children (Heb 12:6;
Prov 3:12). Children often rebel at discipline from Dad, but children do not respect a Dad who
does not discipline his children.
The Servant of God, Archbishop Fulton Sheen used to say: The truth is the truth even if no one
believes it; error is error even if everyone believes it! The films 60 years ago often gave us this
evangelical model of a man, for example, the sheriff in the film: High Noon (1952)! Many fake
being true males but only up to the point that they do not have to loose something to which they
have let their hearts become attached to, especially, the glory before people, slowly sliding into
blindness with each compromise in order to defend these attachments. The most true Man was
totally humiliated on the cross 2000 years ago; this is the model of the authentic man which
today the world, which surrounds us and influences us, does not at all understand, as so many
Catholics today! Also how many wives have not put God, the Truth, before her husband or her
mother or any other person or thing (Mt 10:37; Lk 14:26)?
The reality today is so overwhelming that without God it is impossible to confront the
reality and the truth as it is! Behold the fundamental necessity of humility before the Eucharist
with the help of Mary, because without humility, God does not help us, He goes away from us!
Jesus said to Saint Faustina: The greatest misery does not stop Me from uniting Myself to a soul,
but where there is pride, I am not there (Diary, no. 1563). But with God, all is possible (Mt 19:26),
even to act as men of God, even if we have not received this formation from our Dad as children.
Dear David, life is tough! It is tough for everyone today because so many Catholics did not pray
in the last decades and we have arrived to this point, the period of the great tribulation (Mt
24:21)!
But as other saints tell us for these our times, Sister Lucy of Fatima said to Father Agostino
Fuentes, the postulator of the cause of beatification of Giacinta e Francesco (December 26,
1957): Father, it is urgent that we realize this terrible reality. We do not want to fill the souls with
fear, but only it is urgent a recall to reality. From when the Holy Virgin gave such a great
efficaciousness to the Rosary, there does not exist any material, spiritual, national or
international problem that cannot be resolved with THE HOLY ROSARY AND WITH OUR
SACRIFICES. To recite it with devotion will be to consol Mary and to wipe away so many tears
from her Immaculate Heart. Our Lady expressly said: We are approaching the end times.
SAINT PADRE PIO said: "It would be easier for the world to survive without the sun than to do so
without the HOLY MASS." This saint also said: The ROSARY is the weapon for these times!
Saint Louis de Montfort, in his book True Devotion to Mary (no. 47), wrote:
I said that this will happen especially towards the end of the world, and indeed soon, because
Almighty God and his holy Mother are to raise up great saints who will surpass in holiness
most other saints as much as the cedars of Lebanon tower above little shrubs. This has
been revealed to a holy soul whose life has been written by M. de Renty.
So David, take courage. Spend as much time as possible on your knees before the infinite God in
the tabernacle with the Rosary, and there does not exist any material, spiritual, national or
international problem that cannot be resolved!
Rest assured of my prayers and sacrifices for you.

After having stopped celebrating the Holy Mass with a neocatecumenal community in January
2015, I received an email from a neocatecumen for which I celebrated the Holy Mass for his
community for 10 years, from 2005 to January 2015. I then responded to his emails. This

Spiritual Food 1508
La liturgy is a gift to be received in humility, not something we construct for ourselves,

not a fabrication!
23 von 25
08.11.15 15:45
The last week of last June, I participated in the International Spiritual Exercises, at Collevalenza
Sanctuary of Merciful Love (Madre Speranza), June 22-27, 2015. A whopping four meditations
were dedicated to the theme of the Eucharist and how Satan, at all costs, wants to take away or
destroy the faith, love and humility before the Eucharist. If I find time in the following months, I will
publish one or more of these meditations in my Spiritual Food.
In the Spiritual Food 1501, 1502 and 1503 I wrote about my experience of the devastation due
to the disobedience by the three founders of the Neocatecumenal Way, to not follow faithfully
and exactly the liturgical books of the Catholic Church for the whole Church, as Pope John Paul II
and Pope Benedict XVI had asked the three founders of the Neocatecumenal Way to do.
So many in the Neocatecumenal Way feel more and more important before people as if they
know better how to offer the solutions for the Church and the world than Pope John Paul II or
Pope Benedict. The more time passes in celebrating the Mass not in conformity to the liturgical
books of the Church the more the Mass becomes something that exists to serve the Community
and the people instead of an opportunity, a gift to be able to fulfill our first obligation to our Creator
expressed in the First Commandment: You shall worship the Lord your God and Him only shall
you serve (Mt 4:10; Deut 6:13; Mk 8:33). The three founders of the Neocatecumenal Way, Kiko
Argello, Carmen Hernandez and Father Mario Pezzi, in their letter to the Pope on January 17,
2006, did not obey the letter (December 1, 2005) in which were articulated the directives of the
Pope. In effect, the three founders of the Neocatecumenal Way expressed that they know better
than the Vicar of Christ on earth what is best for souls and for the Church!
The manipulative maneuvers within the Vatican, just before Pope Benedict was to meet with
the neocatecumenals on January 20, 2012, shows just how much power the Neocatecumenal
Way has and how obstinate they are in not trusting in God through His first representative, the
Pope, but trusting in themselves! God works through the humble not the proud! New members of
the Neocatecumenale Way are not guilty of this great lack of trust in God, but without knowing it,
they slowly slide toward the cult of man instead of going toward the cult of God since the leaders
of the Neocatecumenale Way refused the guidance of God by way of the guidance of Holy
Mother Church! Thus, as the years pass in this type of formation, especially regarding the way
the Holy Mass if celebrated, these members become more and more imbued with this same spirit
of which Jesus referred to in His prayer to the Father: I thank Thee, Father, Lord of heaven and
earth, that Thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to
babes (Mt 11:25; Lk 10:21).
Pope Benedict XVI, in the General Audience in Saint Peter's Square, Wednesday, 3 October
2012, told us:
Dear friends, the Church becomes visible in many ways: in charitable action, in mission projects,
in the personal apostolate that every Christian must carry out in his own walk of life. However the
place in which she is fully experienced as Church is in the liturgy; it is the act in which we believe
that God enters our reality and we can encounter him, we can touch him. It is the act in which we
come into contact with God: he comes to us and we are illuminated by him. For this reason, when
in reflections on the liturgy we focus our attention exclusively on how to make it attractive,
interesting and beautiful, we risk forgetting the essential: the liturgy is celebrated for God
and not for ourselves; it is his work; he is the subject; and we must open ourselves to him and
let ourselves be guided by him and by his Body which is the Church (http://w2.vatican.va/content
/benedict-xvi/en/audiences/2012/documents/hf_ben-xvi_aud_20121003.html).
The following was the keynote address at TIME DRAWN INTO ETERNITY: Sacred Time and the
Liturgical Calendar, a conference held by the Te Deum Institute of Sacred Liturgy, Diocese of
Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The Titular Bishop of Manaccenser and Auxiliary Bishop of Melbourne, Most Rev. Peter J. Elliott,
MA Oxon, MA Melb, STD, tells us:
Our Pope (Benedict) invites us to see the glory of Christ Priest and Victim in the liturgy. He leads
us into this glory, above all by his own example of a priest humbly entering the divine mysteries of
the altar. By word and demeanor he reminds us that liturgy is a gift to be received in humility,
not something we construct for ourselves, not a fabrication. Here he strongly rejects a
decadent style of liturgy that set in soon after Vatican II. That style was contrived to be a
deliberate break with the past.
Time opens a door into the cosmic dimension of liturgy. The Pope, as Cardinal Ratzinger,
expounded a cosmological vision of worship. He insisted that the liturgy of the Church is not just
the product of human cultures. Rather, liturgy intersects time and space, history and the cosmos,
because creation is healed through the redeeming love of Christ. The Paschal Mystery of our
Lord and Savior can never be separated from his Body, worshipping in this material universe
through the liturgy yet worshipping in the glory of eternity, magnificently expressed at the Second
Vatican Council in Sacrosanctum Concilium 8: In the earthly liturgy we take part in a foretaste of
the heavenly liturgy..
In Milestones, Memoirs 1927-1977, the short autobiography that covers the first fifty years
of his life, our Holy Father Pope Benedict explains how his love of the liturgy began when he
was a boy. Naturally the child I then was did not grasp every aspect of this, but I started down
the road of the liturgy, and this became a continuous process of growth into a grand reality
transcending all particular individuals and generations, a reality that became an occasion for me
of ever-new amazement and discovery. The incredible reality of the Catholic liturgy has
accompanied me through all phases of life, and so I shall have to speak of it time and again.
Cardinal Ratzingers critique of liturgical discontinuity rested on the conviction that authentic
liturgical development is always organic. This understanding was favored by the Fathers of the
Second Vatican Council in Sacrosanctum Concilium. But changes that followed the Council were
not always organic. As he bluntly put it, organic growth was replaced, as in a manufacturing
process, with a fabrication, an on the spot banal product.
Change in liturgy should not be concocted by committees or individuals or produced by
experiments. That undermines the foundation of liturgical continuity - that liturgy is a gift, from
God, through the Church. Yet he is frank about past problems, comparing the liturgy to an
endangered fresco preserved by whitewash, which was stripped away, only to be endangered by
climatic conditions as well as by various restorations and reconstructions.

Benedict XVI and liturgical reform; Dom Alcuin Reid, OSB:

As he (Pope Benedict) so eloquently explained as Cardinal: "If the Liturgy appears first of all
as the workshop for our activity, then what is essential is being forgotten: God. For the
Liturgy is not about us, but about God. Forgetting about God is the most imminent danger of our
age. As against this, the Liturgy should be setting up a sign of God's presence.
"Yet what is happening, if the habit of forgetting about God makes itself at home in the Liturgy
itself, and if in the Liturgy we are only thinking of ourselves? In any and every liturgical reform,

and every liturgical celebration, the primacy of God should be kept in view first and
foremost."
Commentators have remarked on Benedict XVI's courtesy and humility. These, and his profound
love of the Church, mean that he will take seriously the words he wrote not twelve months ago:
"The Pope is not an absolute monarch whose will is law, but is the guardian of the
authentic Tradition, and thereby the premier guarantor of obedience. He cannot do as he
likes, and is thereby able to oppose those people who for their part want to do what has come
into their head. His rule is not that of arbitrary power, but that of obedience in faith."
Pope Benedict XVI will not act beyond his competence in respect of the Sacred Liturgy, but he
will act, for he is convinced that, as he wrote in 1997, "the true celebration of the Sacred
Liturgy is the centre of any renewal of the Church whatever."
(http://www.ad2000.com.au/articles/2005/jun2005p9_1959.html)
One finds in Spiritual Food 1507 the words of Our Blessed Mother revealed to Don Stefano
Gobbi:
"It is lack of discipline to disregard with ease the norms which the Church has laid down for the
regulation of liturgical and ecclesiasticl life. Today each one tends to direct himself according to
his own tastes or free choice, and with what scandalous facility are violated the norms of the
Church (February 2, 1979)
In the meditation below one finds these words:

In the face of this reality, the denouncement by Fr. Gobbi regarding error that is taught as truth on
the great silence and omission on the part of some Ecclesiastical authorities in the face of
liturgical and doctrinal abuses, seems to be timely and reflect a weak side and debility of some
members of' the Hierarchy who lack a spirit of true communion with the Holy Father, and with the
teaching of the authentic Magisterium of the Church, and apostolic zeal for the defense of the
faith.
There are messages that affirm the influx of Freemasonry among the members of the Hierarchy.
From this group will emerge an element that will through corruption take over power of the
Church and abolish the sacrificial character of the Holy Mass. This man will act as an antichrist
who will draw Protestant teaching into the heart of the Catholic Church. Protestantism denies
the sacrificial value of the Eucharistic Celebration and recognizes only the convivial
aspect of the Last Supper.
If on the one hand this assertion may seem strong or exaggerated, on the other hand, it seems to
be evident that the actual fact referred to by a Salesian priest, a missionary in the State of
Amazonas in Brazil, regarding the archbishop of the capital of that state, which decreed the
prohibition of the Holy Mass in the parishes on the outskirts of the city on the second Sundays of
each month, in order to encourage the celebration of the Word presided over by religious and lay
faithful. Would this not be a subtle way to create doubt among believers between the most
important value of the Holy Mass and the celebration of the Word, and would this not be a form
of protestantization of the Church's teaching on the Eucharist?
