  • "in the end my Sorrowful Heart will triumph..."   :confused1:

    Just like JP2 the bishops seek novelties and innovations.  They simply will not comply with her request.

  • There is a traditional Rosary Rally for all law enforcement tomorrow July 16 at 12 pm on the corner of rt 45 and rt 538 Mullica Hill New Jersey.  (South hαɾɾιson township). If you are in the area, join us.  It's going to be very hot.  I'm probably going to bring water in a cooler for people.
    May God bless you and keep you

  • With so many sodomists, pedergasts, thieves and other demonic activity, there should be a Rosary Crusade to restore the whole Catholic Church back to Jesus Christ.   Also needed is an exorcism too.
    May God bless you and keep you

  • Quote from: Raphaela
    Very regrettable that they should say "the Consecration of Russia to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary", which Our Lady certainly never asked for. Theological objections can be made to putting these two adjectives together, as one refers to Our Lady's life on earth - the Seven Sorrows - and one to a now eternal and absolute privilege. The Immaculate Heart is not sorrowful in Heaven! Just as it would be wrong to refer to the "Suffering Sacred Heart".

    After Cardinal Mercier had granted an indulgence for Belgium for the invocation "Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary, pray for us", he wrote to Pope Pius X, asking him to grant a universal indulgence. He received a coldly worded refusal, with an implicit criticism of the Cardinal's own local indulgence. The Pope gave no reason, and Pius XI granted an indulgence after the First World War, but the apparent allocutions of Our Lord to Berthe Petit, from which this devotion originates, are certainly open to criticism, reflecting themes of unjustified anti-German propaganda found in the Belgian yellow press during WWI.

    It's interesting that two organisations which consecrated themselves to the "Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary" both went into misfortune, the Blue Army of Fatima and the Little Pebble cult. The SSPX first consecrated itself to this in 1982 or 83, just at the time when Archbishop Lefebvre resigned as Superior General and the first moves seem to have been made towards the present disastrous policy.        


    I noticed this when I read it but wanted to see what others said since I really don't know anything about it, it just gave me pause since it isn't what Our Lady asked. Do you have links to this information? I have found some info on the private revelations related to it but not about St Pius X's rejection of it. Instead I read that he ratified the indulgences. Either way, it's still not what Our Lady asked at Fatima. I don't know why it seems so difficult to do exactly as she asked.

    I was writing from memory last night, but I’ve now found the book, The Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary: Revelations of Jesus and Mary to Berthe Petit - A Belgian Mystic (1870-1943), republished by the SSPX, London, 2002. It was written by a French missionary priest  in the 1950’s or 60’s and the translation has a US imprimatur of 1965.

      Perhaps St. Pius X wasn’t being exactly cold in his letter of 1911 to Cardinal Mercier, but he certainly wasn’t encouraging. The book says:

    Quote
    In a letter to the Belgian Primate written with his own hand, the Sovereign Pontiff said in conclusion: "Your Eminence had exercised the privilege of granting 100 days’ indulgence to the ejaculation. I would ask that the pious lady be content with this for the present."

     
    It wasn’t Pius XI but Benedict XV who granted an indulgence to the invocation, but it’s not clear from the book whether it was a local or universal one. There is no prayer to the 'Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart' in the Raccolta of Indulgenced Prayers of 1951, so if it was universal, it must have been suppressed by then. The Blue Army didn’t consecrate themselves to it, they just 'adopted the invocation'. It does seem that this devotion sank without trace after Fatima and the spread of Reparation to the Immaculate Heart, except in a few small circles, and it certainly comes entirely from the Berthe Petit allocutions.

    These can be criticised from both a religious and historical point of view, but it would take a long analysis. One example: in 1917, Cardinal Bourne of Westminster, who caught Cardinal Mercier’s enthusiasm, consecrated England and the British Empire to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary. The voice attributes the Allied victory in WWI almost entirely to his actions. On October 17th, 1918:

    Quote
    Had I not intervened in answer to recourse to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of My Mother, and through the leading of My apostle Francis [Bourne], victory would have been on the side of [Germany and Austria].

    So Our Lady is made responsible for the Balfour Declaration? And the banishment of Emperor Charles and the destruction of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, to which the Church had transferred the prerogatives of the Holy Roman Empire? Etc.

    One more quote, from the Second World War, Nov. 1941, with the Germans still the absolute villains and no mention of Russia:

    Quote
    The chastisement is rumbling, the leaders [of Germany] feel it coming near, they dread it and they realize that they can do nothing to avert it. It is then that My judgment and the power of My Will shall be made known. My Work will never fall short of achievement. Belgium will again be prosperous. (My italics)

    I can’t believe this is Our Lord speaking!

    Could the whole thing be a fαℓѕє fℓαg by the Enemy to distract from Fatima?

  • I love Fatima, but those who say Russia has not been consecrated
    to the Immaculate Heart may be wrong. I believe they could very
    well be wrong.
    They always state it as a"fact" that Russia wasn't consecrated,
    and this is disingenuous and arrogant, in my opinion.
