I ended yesterday’s post with what is arguably the most important question facing both the Church and the world today:
Who exactly is Jorge Mario Bergoglio?
The answer to this question is neither pretty nor difficult to ascertain; all it takes is simple observation and a modicum of Catholic sense.
Even so, in His unfathomable mercy, Our Lord sent the Blessed Virgin Mary to Fatima to forewarn us; so that even the dim of wit might be able to discern the signs of the times accurately and thus conduct themselves accordingly.
Recently, I made mention of Cardinal Ratzinger’s claim (made prior to his complicity in the dubious publication of the Third Secret “in its entirety” by the Vatican in the year 2000) that the message of Fatima is “essentially the same” as that given by Our Lady at Akita, Japan.
Since then, several readers have voiced their concerns over the authenticity of the Akita apparitions.
Now, it may very well be that Akita deserves closer scrutiny. Its authenticity, however, is not especially relevant concerning the as yet unpublished portion of the Third Secret.
Please allow me to explain…
What truly matters is that the Fatima apparitions are authentic, and Cardinal Ratzinger, after having read the Third Secret, confirmed that its contents are congruous with the warning recorded by Sr. Agnes Sasagawa at Akita as follows:
The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church in such a way that one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against other bishops. The priests who venerate me will be scorned and opposed by their confreres, churches and altars will be sacked. The Church will be full of those who accept compromises and the devil will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave the service of the Lord. The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God. The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness. If sins increase in number and gravity, there will be no longer any pardon for them.
As I told you, if people do not repent and better themselves, the Father will inflict a terrible punishment on all humanity. It will be a punishment greater than the Flood, such as one will never have seen before. Fire will fall from the sky and will wipe out a great part of humanity, the good as well as the bad, sparing neither priests nor faithful. The survivors will find themselves so desolate that they will envy the dead.
While the events in Akita took place in 1973, there were published reports as early as 1963 claiming that the Third Secret warned of precisely the same things. Specifically:
Satan will succeed in infiltrating to the top of the Church … Cardinals will oppose Cardinals; Bishops will oppose Bishops … Fire and smoke will fall from Heaven … Millions of people will die by the hour and the survivors will envy the dead.
[Click HERE to view a lengthy 2013 article published in Fr. Luigi Villa’s Chiesa Viva detailing the 1963 report referenced above.]
Though the 1963 report does little to verify the authenticity of Akita, it does provide testimony in support of Cardinal Ratzinger’s claim concerning the message of Fatima.
At this, I would like to return to the question at hand by focusing on specific aspects of Our Lady’s warning; confident that this will lead us to an answer.
“Satan will succeed in infiltrating to the top of the Church … The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church…”
Clearly, Our Lady is talking about diabolical influence being made manifest in individual men in Rome, but which ones?
Specifically mentioned are Cardinals and Bishops, but note well that Our Lady then goes on to say:
“The demon will be especially implacable against souls consecrated to God.”
Though it is perhaps too chilling for many to acknowledge, if we put all of this together, it seems that one man on earth in particular fits this warning to a tee:
Jorge Mario Bergoglio; Cardinal, Bishop, and member of the Institute of Consecrated Life known as the Society of Jesus.
And what do the words and deeds of this man tell us about his relationship with the demon?
Over the last three years, Francis has demonstrated a stunning amount of contempt for sacred things – doctrinal, liturgical, and devotional, as well as palpable disgust for those faithful Catholics who cleave to them.
Francis is a man who refuses to bend his knee before the Blessed Sacrament, and yet he has no difficulty doing so before mere men; to say nothing of the seductive serenade of the Humblecam’s shutter.
Though he claims to be the Vicar of Christ, he has an obvious aversion to making the Sign of the Cross – the instrument of Christ’s victory over sin and death. He even insults Christ, the One he supposedly represents, by bowing his head for the blessings of heretics in clerical costume.
He condemns those who but seek converts to the one true Faith – the very mission of the Church – and yet never seems to tire of expressing esteem for the false religions.
Just this week, he joined in a public celebration of the protestant revolt; an event that led, and continues to lead, countless souls into grave error; away from the Most Holy Eucharist; away from the sacrament of confession wherein our sins are forgiven; away from the one true Church of Christ outside of which there is no salvation.
In short, with every passing day, Francis’ hatred of things Catholic (aka the things of God) is becoming more and more difficult to deny.
As such, one is hard pressed to avoid coming to the terrible conclusion that this man, Jorge Mario Bergoglio, aka Francis, is as much or more than any other individual alive today the personification of Our Lady’s warning concerning the work of the Devil being carried out from the top of the Church itself.
This is a bitter pill to swallow, indeed, but the evidence is both overwhelming and irrefutable.
As for how we must conduct ourselves in light of this terrible truth…
First and foremost, we must pray and fast for the intention of Jorge Bergoglio’s conversion; just as we might for the good of anyone else who so clearly despises the one true Faith established by Christ, but in this case with the good of the Church and the good of innocent souls also well in mind.
We must resist, expose, and condemn his many errors and the innumerable affronts that he heaps upon Our Blessed Lord almost daily; defending the dignity of Christ and the truths of our Holy Catholic faith as best we are able within whatever sphere of influence we happen to have.
As for those who, by the grace of God, occupy a position of authority in the “top of the Church;” these men have a much graver responsibility to resist, expose, and condemn Francis’ many errors – loudly, clearly and publicly; theirs being the solemn duty to protect the flock from the obvious danger that this man poses to souls.
Truly, my friends, it is no exaggeration to say that Jorge Bergoglio is without question the most dangerous man on the planet; bar no one.
If he isn’t converted, deposed, or mercifully taken from this world, and soon, there can be no doubt whatsoever that countless souls will suffer the tragic effects of his nefarious activities for generations to come.
This being so, we must pray and fast for those in the sacred hierarchy; that they may have the courage, by grace, to speak out before its too late and they are held to account for the offenses of Francis as if they were their very own.
Finally, let’s be clear, none of this is to judge the interior disposition of Francis’ soul or that of anyone else – Our Lord alone can do that; it is simply to acknowledge a painful reality:
Jorge Mario Bergoglio is a churchman under the influence of the demonic who, whether knowingly or not, does the Evil One’s bidding with remarkable aplomb.
St. Michael the Archangel, protect us!
Immaculate Mary, pray for us!
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us!
This article is right on the money, but diabolic disorientation in the Church is as old as the Vatican Council of 1962. Our Lady wanted the Fatima Secret to be published in 1960, because by then, it would be more clear. The release of the Secret would have been enough to derail Vatican II, which in 1960, was in the planning phase.
It looks more like the Anti Christ is amongst us when such an apology for a Pope openly despises the Mystical Body of Christ the way he does.The Cardinals who are Faithful to the church ought to be calling for him to go back to Argentina and join some Protestant sect or other-there are plenty of them around.Louis,the Good Lord will deal with Papa Franco in his own good way.
I too, believe Jorge Bergoglio to be the most dangerous man on the planet. I believe this with my whole heart. It is stunning so very few articulate the abject horror of his papacy. I can’t help but feel Benedict hangs on for a reason.
Dear Louie,
Who would have ever believed that Holy Mother the Church would come to this! If anyone had dared intimate in the early 1900’s that we would have such a pope as we have today, he would have been locked away in lunatic asylum. But God’s ways are not our ways and His will is being done in our day and age, as it is always done. We can take great comfort in the fact that Our Lady, His beloved Mother, will triumph. I believe that this shall happen much sooner than many think.
“Truly, my friends, it is no exaggeration to say that Jorge Bergoglio is without question the most dangerous man on the planet; bar no one.”
At first these words seem exceedingly shocking, but when you think about it, Bergoglio is in fact more dangerous than the Clintons, Obamas, LGBTQABC123, Soros, UN, EU and all the rest combined! How? Because they can only inflict harm on the body but Bergoglio can inflict harm on you soul by spiritually scourging the unwary sheep. So yes, it makes tragic sense.
Anyone who is not FOR Christ is AGAINST Christ. Therefore, Bergoglio could be accurately identified as ANTI-CHRIST. To give this label to a secular leader is frightening. To give this label to the person who is supposed to be the VICAR OF CHRIST is absolutely horrifying. St. Michael, the Archangel, defend us in the day of battle. That day is NOW!!
The work of the devil will infiltrate even into the Church………….and on Jan 22, 1973 abortion was legalized, and nary a word from our shepherds.
Bergoglio is the second beast of Revelation 13, the false prophet making way for the antichrist.
What sets PF/Bergolio apart from other Vatican Popes from Paul VI on?
Regarding Rev 13, John Paul II and Cardinal Ratzinger fit the story line in a remarkable way. JPII was slain as to death, whose wound was healed. As the head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith, Ratzinger exercised all of JPII’s power in his sight. Ratzinger caused the world to “worship” JPII by making him a saint. The massive video boards that lined the street on the day of JPII’s canonization, gave him life and made him speak.
Note: “Worship” has different levels of meaning.
Louie,
This part of the “Fiery prayer” by St. Louis de Montfort is so you.
Keep on barkin!
Children: True servants of the Blessed Virgin, who, like other Saint Dominics, would go everywhere carrying the bright and burning torch of the Holy Gospel in their mouths and the holy Rosary in their hands; barking, like faithful watchdogs, at the wolves who would fain tear to pieces the flock of Jesus Christ; burning like fires and lighting up the darkness of the World like other suns. Men who would, by means of a true devotion to Mary, that is to say, interior, not hypocritical; exterior, not critical; prudent, not ignorant; tender, not indifferent; constant, not unsteady; and holy, without presumption, crush wherever they go the head of the old serpent, in order that the curse Thou placed on him might be entirely fulfilled: I will put enmities between thee and the Woman and thy seed and Her seed: She shall crush thy head(Gen. 3:15).
Louie:
As an ex-Lutheran, a proselyte who is reaping the eternal benefits and blessings of being proselytized by a good priest and a lay family of the Church, Francis’ words and actions have not gone unnoticed.
Many Catholics do not realize just how depraved the group is that the POPE hand-selected to join shoulder-to-shoulder in Lund. It SHOULD be absolutely horrifying and shocking, but it appears not to be. Most Catholics must be that spiritually dumbed-down and as to what it all means that no Bishops and Carinals have clearly condemned this action, I am appalled. Shocked.
Not sure how to put this but straight up. The POPE celebrated the Great Divorce of the Church with the most rank set of moral degenerates conceivable. Led by a lesbian, they are real perverts, Lutherans that many Lutherans despise and that even Luther would condemn, real sexual deviants that Pope Pius V would have given over to the medieval authorities to have garroted, debased impostors to the Christian faith. While we know that Luther destroyed marriage for Protestantism, most don’t realize that he was anti-contraception, and it is inconceivable that even he the Arch-heresiarch would have accepted abortion while these depraved anti-Christians promote or accept all of THAT. THAT is who this Pope personally selected to celebrate schism with. And worse, he does not just meet with them, but goes on to tell the world that the Catholic faith is like them and we want to be one with them in “full communion”!
After 50 years of edge-dulling, the sword of shame in the Catholic Church is pretty dull, and it seems that almost nothing brings about a cutting sense of it anymore except among a small number of Catholics. But facts should. Folks, we are not dealing with just any “Lutherans” in Lund, we are dealing with a group that promotes raw, pure evil and a Pope who supports them.
As you have noted this very interesting connection between Fatima and Akita, I am reminded of 2 Thessalonian 2:1-12.

May we truly fast and pray for truth and that conversion amy sweep the prelature of the Church.
If Martin Luther got it right, why is it that all Protestants aren’t Lutheran? Obviously, the thousands of Protestant sects and their members which came after the “great reformation” didn’t agree with Luther. If this is so, why does Francis think Luther deserves to be honored, while Christ is betrayed? I wouldn’t be surprised if Martin Luther was canonized by Francis or by the next “pope” who I expect will not be much better or even worse (God forbid!) All of this goes back to “Saint” JP2 who initiated the scandalous Assisi meetings which, in essence, made Catholicism just another “religion” among all “religions, beliefs and cults”. JP2 set the stage, Francis is dancing on it.
Nothing. They all modernists.
Excellent insight from RodH.
It is not a papacy. He is not the pope.
I wouldnt put too much emphasis on Akita. It was approved by the Concilior Churh after all.
Good comments. Francis is merely the quintessential Vatican II pope. They were, in fact, all destroyers, and in fact since it is Paul VI who promulgated (but not in a binding way) the Novus Ordo Rite of Mass, he may still be yet un-topped depending on how one counts the beans.
–
Akita is authentic. The local ordinary is the authoritative judge of such matters unless his ruling is contradicted by a higher authority. The good bishop made his rule, and it has never been contravened by the Holy See – in fact there has never been even the slightest whisper of such a thing I’m aware of. It matters not a whit what the other bishops of Japan think.
