Wrote this many weeks ago. Less than a week later we helped one of the faithful priests that came our way. God provides. Although written in a state of great distress, wondering how to serve God properly, it applies even moreso now than then. I display it again. Let's stop hiding!!!
Friends,
Please take out your book "Open letter to confused Catholics" by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre and read page 146. Actually pages 129 to the end directly apply to us today but page 146 is particular to what we wish to express.
There are two semi valid reasons for not making a stand. Reasons that really shouldn't exist for too long. The first being the question how. How do I go about a public resistance? Do I stand on a rock and start preaching? Of course not. This is one of our problems currently. Stand up and walk out when a priest praises Bishop Fellay's errors or his "grace of state" in a sermon? That we will do next time it happens. But is it enough? We want to fight for Our Lady. Her time of victory is very soon. Wouldn't it be great to KNOW we have fought for her?
The second reason for not standing up is the loneliness of standing up by yourself. We are from a very large parish. This parish, this town is lethargicly (if there is such a word!) quiet. There is no talk of it. It is like a ghost town spiritually with NOBODY willing to be put in the spotlight as a whipping boy. My family and I wouldn't mind but those two things are pulling us back. That along with the fact the devil will single us out for horrible things. But with Our Lady on our side that doesn't bother as much as the first two reasons.
We live about 5 hours from an "independent" priest. We use to travel exactly that long in our early days of being Traditional. We can do it again. There are ways around unjust censures and expulsions but if it were just us being expelled it wouldn't make as much thunder and it would wake up so few people. As Archbishop Lefebvre said "The truth does not depend on numbers and numbers do not make the Truth." The day and time will come when we finally figure out a way to make our resistance known publicly and then maybe the others will gain courage too. This is what happens when the sheep are without a shepherd.
We MUST resist! We MUST fight for our Lady! My wife heard a sermon by a priest who refuses to fight because he needs to "obey" his superiors. In the sermon he said he is glad there was no agreement with Rome because of the new Archbishop that doesnt beleive in the virginity of Our Lady. He made it sound like this: "I am glad there was no agreement with Rome because if there was I would have to accept that the virgin Mary is not a perpetual virgin and I really believe the opposite." ..... WHERE IS COMMON SENSE? You Priests need to read "Open Letter to Confused Catholics" Pages 129-136. Page 133: "For it is a master-stroke of Satan to get Catholics to disobey the whole of Tradition in the name of obedience." This poor priest is rather strong on a great many things but he is weak. Very weak indeed when he faces "obedience" Remember, it was this "obedience" that greatly contributed to the success of the infamous "vatican II" (soon to be wiped out by our blessed Mother) and the devil is simply replaying the same trick now. Shouldn't we know better?
We have written much here. If you are still reading please do let yourselves be known as we will do shortly. I told my wife perhaps we should wait a couple of months as we plan on moving next spring. She looked at me and said "What if it is too late?" What if our Lady will already have claimed the victory by then? We will be left out in the cold. If we still get to heaven we will not be part of that great company that stood up for God and our Lady in the darkest crisis of the Church!
The only thing we are wary of is being called in to a priest's office. We must refuse to have anything to do with modernist conversations or debates about the current situation because satan is very active with this illusion and we wouldn't want to be infected. Part of a battle is not just the offensive but also the defensive.
Hence our thoughts we now display on the internet hoping that one day soon we will no longer have to "hide" on the internet feeling like we are accomplishing something of value. Let's all of us who wish to follow our Lady make a stand. You will find there will be no more time for internet opinions. Sure, now we use it because now we are trying to gather the "troops" together. Fight with us for God and His Mother.
Have suggestions on how to go about eliminating the two "reasons" for not coming out? Post them! Want to fight with us? Let us know! Send a "personal" message. This website is probably being watched but thankfully prayer and sacrifice and standing up for a good cause is not reproachable. At least not in God's "eyes".
It can still get worse. What will tomorrow's religion be if we do not resist?
VIVA CHRISTO REY!!
