An Open Letter to Bishop Richard Williamson concerning an alleged recent "Directive from the Mother of God"
Dear Bishop Williamson
With regard to the latest Eleison Comments, ("Inside Story - I;" October 18, 2014), surely you are aware that to advertise a private revelation by a contemporary woman as being, in your estimation ("readers are entitled" to "distrust" your "judgment"), a "directive from the Mother of God," violates everything the mystical doctor par excellence, St. John of the Cross, wrote on this subject (please re-read The Dark Night of the Soul, Book II, from chapter XVI forward).
Personally, I pray first and foremost for the conversion of the degraded United States of America, which is the usury, pornography and sodomite capital of the world -- and for the conversion of Jerusalem -- where the evil of evils has its lair. These are the top two black holes on earth today (the rise of Islamic terrorism being a creature chiefly of Israeli, US and British intelligence). In comparison with these, Putin's Russia, which defends Our Lord and Lady from blasphemy, and is the nation-state most energetically advocating for the defense of Christians in war-torn Middle Eastern nations like Syria, is far down the list of countries needing "conversion" in the 21st century.
To see Catholic prelates led around by a living woman's "visions" is not edifying and may seriously harm your credibility. Moreover, if this is Our Lady speaking in actuality, why didn't she first request that Bishop Fellay repent of his deceit and Judaizing? Furthermore, Bishop Fellay has had the SSPX faithful recite umpteenth thousands (or millions) of rosaries of late. Is Our Lady ignorant of this fact? Are these rosaries only efficacious if specifically aimed at Russia?
Unlike the woman of your acquaintance, I do not presume to speak for the Blessed Virgin Mary, but I will venture to opine that if Mary were speaking today, she would tell all Catholic men to get off their duffs and out into the streets, and work for Christ the King in the media and political, legal, academic and cultural arenas -- actively resisting and organizing to expose sodomy, usury, pornography, blasphemy and тαℓмυdism in high places; pounding the pavement to elect local candidates of moral fibre, and organizing seminars and speeches on topics of historical and political import, as well as encouraging university degrees for Catholic youth headed into the judiciary, journalism, law enforcement, etc. Most "traditional" Catholics are nearly completely passive in almost all of these areas of activism.
How do you know that the woman seer you are promoting is not of the devil? Is she not persuading Catholic men who should be standing up and getting into the arena of combat, that they mainly need to emphasize the rosary to fulfill what Heaven has called them to do?
The rosary prayers alone could never have won at Lepanto. It took thousands of troops and sailors in armor, and with blood and fire, to accomplish that victory. We can say a trillion rosaries, and if the softies in the pews imagine that their main pursuits (which seem to be reading, saying rosaries and talking), will win them a victory over God's hellish enemies, they are seriously deluded.
Jesus Christ said, "Occupy until I come." Are we contesting for the seats of power in the West until He returns again? Where are the heavenly directives from female visionaries to do as Christ taught us?
I pray that we are not being spiritually enervated and paralyzed by an eschatological mentality that forever prophesies imminent doom or "chastisement" (as has been predicted for some thirty-five years), and mocks the notion that we could re-conquer the seats of power in America (as Spain did in taking the Iberian peninsula back from Islam and their Judaic allies). Yes, Jesus may return to earth tomorrow, or He may return 200 years hence. Our duty is to the battle underway, which requires soldiers in the trenches -- very real, physical "trenches." And dear God, may we please cease our egotistical disparagement of Russia as a nation so much more blighted and in need of conversion than America and "Israel." If ever there was a misdirecting cue from hell -- plain to all who have eyes to see -- this is it.
As I write these words, Hollywood, New York, Jerusalem and the City of London are responsible for far more demonic mayhem on this planet than Russia under Vladimir Putin.
In Christ,
Michael Hoffman
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho
