  • Yes, Satan will tempt us with everything to make us believe God has abandoned us but we must not despair.  We must get mentally as well as spiritually ready for what is to come.


    I see those stories of the martyrs, of young teen girls getting their breasts cut off, of little children thrown into fires, of lions tearing at their flesh...and they sing songs of praise to God and die with smiles on their faces!

    How easy it would be to despair and think that God abandoned them, but of course we know it was quite the contrary.

    Jesus Himself and Sacred Scripture elsewhere said it would look like this...sending a grand delusion...wolves in sheep's clothing...shepherd struck and sheep scattered...will I find the faith on earth...cashless society...

    It's all coming true so that strengthens my faith actually!



    "And I saw seats; and they sat upon them; and judgment was given unto them; and the souls of them that were beheaded for the testimony of Jesus "  Apoc 20:4

    I exposed AB Vigano's public meetings with Crowleyan Satanist Dugin so I ask protection on myself family friends priest, under the Blood of Jesus Christ and mantle of the Blessed Virgin Mary! If harm comes to any of us may that embolden the faithful to speak out all the more so Catholics are not deceived.

    Agreed, and the part I bolded, Fr Ripperger says that God allows/uses demons as instruments of our purification. 
    For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places

    Do you really have to inject Father Ripperger into every thread?  He's also anti-Traditionalist in some ways.  I heard his little spiel about Trads being uncharitable, but he doesn't draw the appropriate distinctions, almost implying that any rejection in principle of various Novus Ordo practices is motivated by pride and (therefore) demon-inspired (as nearly all vices are in his view).  While there's definitely a tendency toward price that CAN be there and that we must remain on guard about, criticism of the NO is not inherently disordered.  Quite the contrary.

    Even if Fr. Ripperger SAYS this, in practice he denies it.  Otherwise, we would refer any troubles we may have vis-a-vis demonic influences to Him rather than directly addressing the demons and taking them on ourselves.

    By injecting him into this thread, you're merely trying to rehabilitate him after his views about demonology have been discredited as dangerous and un-Traditional.
