"It is I, the accused, who would have to judge you" Bishop Marcel Lefebvre.

 

Satan's hour

Note. This writing by Archbishop Lefebvre is so up-to-date that it is well worth reading it carefully over and over again and meditating on it to realize that the enemies of God have almost reached their end. never as now the Church and Catholic and non-Catholic society are no longer in a convulsion but in a total decline. It is an eloquent message for the small flock that God Our Lord has reserved for these times in order to act both socially, as we can, and with prayer so as not to succumb to the enemy onslaught.

The judgment formulated by the Pope is clear and formal. This plan comes from satan. The plans of the Masons are satanic and are inspired by hatred against Our Lord Jesus Christ. It is necessary to see things precisely as Leo XIII describes them to understand the origin and motives of this war waged with such intelligence and, I would say, with such prudence, against Christian institutions and, consequently, to oppose the reign of Our Lord. Jesus Christ. They have waged this war for centuries throughout the world. That is why it cannot be that the origin of such a plan and realization are only men; its origin cannot be more than the devil. It really is the city of the devil, which is organized against Our Lord Jesus Christ and against the Christian city.

Satan is evidently evil and remarkably intelligent. Sometimes he knows how to disguise himself with violence, sometimes hiding it with very humanitarian appearances, and sometimes with very absolute doctrines such as communism and later with liberalism, which is made up of a good number of variants, in such a way that one is lost.

Many get caught up in that ambiguous language used to deceive simple people who do not reflect and allow themselves to be carried away.

Of course all men are free, equal and brothers. But here it is not about true freedom, equality or fraternity. We must try to understand well the motives and objectives of this truly satanic struggle. The Pope has no qualms and categorically accuses Satan of being the origin of all these Masonic doctrines, which dishonor man, family and society.

«The endeavor of the Masons - to destroy the main foundations of what is just and with this, and thus encourage those who, in imitation of the animal, would like to be licit what pleases - is nothing other than to push the human race ignominiously and shamefully to its extreme ruin. Evil and dangers that threaten domestic and civil society are increasing. Because, as we have previously stated, there is in marriage, according to the common and almost universal feeling of all peoples and centuries, something sacred and religious: it also prohibits the divine law that can be dissolved. But if this is allowed, if the marriage becomes profane, discord and confusion must necessarily continue in the family, the woman falling from her dignity and the offspring remaining uncertain, both regarding their property and their own life.

The crime that Freemasonry engenders

It is interesting to observe the consequences of the behavior of the Masons. On the one hand, they create secular works for young people and children, and at the same time they do everything necessary to fill the prisons with them. (In the first case it is about the great works of philanthropy that they advertise with great fanfare and in the second case, they themselves promote crime and then present themselves as champions of social and civil peace.)

They do not allow the Church to impart Catholic education, whose morals they reject, and they spread dishonesty, vice, pornographic films and works, etc. (At present, religious education no longer exists even in “religious” schools due to Masonic modernism. Let us never forget the unprecedented fury of Plutarco Elías Calles in Mexico in 1926, when he expropriated or closed all the Catholic schools in the Mexican Republic) They do everything to corrupt the youth and later it has been necessary to build prisons for delinquent children and psychiatric or reformatory hospitals. Is incredible; all that was not known before. The reformatories used to be orphanages, run by nuns or the brothers of San Juan de Dios. Currently, in France, there are, for example, the Poncalec sisters, where the police take children abandoned by their parents.

There were works like these, in which the children found a family atmosphere and affection from those brothers or sisters who had received them. However, those congregations were persecuted and their members expelled. Everything possible has been done to make these works disappear and, supposedly, to create other secularized works (Rather worldly works directed by specialized personnel by them to de-Christianize, corrupt and worldly all “public welfare” institutions as we see it today.)The result has been that prisons have had to be built for children, which are authentic concentration camps and where all vices reign, or, as there are too many criminals, nothing is done to them; you can't lock them all up. That is what we see happening now in all countries, that is to say: the increase in crime, robberies, drugs ...

Switzerland is not exempt from these upheavals affecting the youth. In Zurich and Lausanne gangs of young people have been seen stealing cars, breaking shop windows to steal and behaving like real bandits while the police are content to watch, because they do not know what to do. He checks the facts, catches some of them, interrogates them… They go to jail for a few days, and then they are released and things start over. The responsible authorities do not know how to govern society, from which they have wrested all its moral foundations. Everything that could offer young people elements for a convenient and orderly life has been abolished. ¡In the name of freedom, all barriers have been removed ... It’s awful!

The spread of the drug is one example. It is a terrible plague that spreads even in schools that are still Catholic. No one can say what can be done to put an end to this ever-spreading evil. If we have reached that point it is because we no longer want to impose the moral law or the law of God. The decalogue is no longer the basis of societies, or of the family, or of education.

There is only the "rights of man", the right to freedom. Freedom !: there we see the results.

The revolution and the desire for change

The doctrine of the Masons according to which men are equal ruins all authority in the political organization of civil society. If that concept were applied to the Church, its entire structure would be ruined. It is essentially hierarchical and authority is conferred by higher authorities, except for the election of the Pope in the conclave. The Pope appoints the bishops, the bishops call the priests, etc. The Church is an entirely hierarchical society, whose organization is opposed to the rationalistic doctrines of the Masons.

When the doctrines of the Masons are applied - says the Pope - their consequences lead to the Revolution.

«From the turbulent errors, which we have already enumerated, the greatest dangers for the States are to be feared. Because, once the fear of God and respect for divine laws have been removed, the authority of princes despised, the mania of revolutions allowed and legitimized, you let go of popular passions with the greatest license, with no other brake than punishment, it must be followed. necessarily the upheaval and ruin of all things. And even precisely this ruin and disorder is what the masses of communists and socialists united conscientiously plot and expressly proclaim together , to whose designs the sect of the Masons cannot be said to be alien, since it greatly favors their plans and agrees with them in the main dogmas. (…) Masons.(At present, thanks to the Second Vatican Council, the official or Modernist Church is no longer hierarchical but “democratic.” This is one of the main distinctions between the modern Church and the Traditional or visible Church, hence the distinction between both in that one is "official" and the other is visible)

If only they would all judge the tree by its fruits and know the seed and principle of the evils that oppress us and the dangers that threaten us! We have to deal with a cunning and malicious enemy who, flattering the ears of peoples and princes, has captivated one and the other with soft words and flattery. By insinuating themselves among the princes by feigning friendship, the Masons set their sights on achieving them as powerful partners and collaborators to oppress the Catholic religion (...)

They did not otherwise deceive, flattering them, the peoples. Voicing freedom and public prosperity, making it clear that because of the Church and the monarchs, the multitude had no longer left their wicked servitude and misery, they deceived the people, and, awakened in them the thirst for novelties, they incited them to fight against both powers».

The aggiornamento: adaptation to the liberal spirit

Popes have frequently condemned the thirst for change. The desire for change is the evil of modern men and it was the one that attacked the Council. Under the pretext of aggiornamento they wanted to change everything. You have to change under the pretext of adaptation. You have to catch up with modern man, and as modern man always changes, you have to always change and adapt indefinitely.

That the apostolate methods must be adapted to a certain extent, is something evident. The problem does not even arise, because it is something elementary. It is not preached to adults like children, nor to intellectuals and cultured people like simple people. There is an adaptation, of course. It is natural, and for that it was not necessary to convene a council.

But what seems unimaginable is that, in fact, they wanted to discuss the formulas to supposedly adapt the way of expressing our faith and make it more accessible to modern man. They are pure speculations!

The "rights of man": what man is it? What exist are men, not the "man" separated from all reality. When it comes to adapting to modern man, what man is it about? From Europe, from South America, from China ...? That makes no sense. Modern man is simply a man whose brain has been shaped by Masonic doctrines, which are ideas that are absolutely contrary to the Church, to the very principles of nature and to the principles as God conceives them.

To pretend that the ideas and vocabulary of this "modern man" can be Christianized is totally unrealistic. As much as it is said: "the rights of man are something admirable and could be made evangelical", it is impossible! They have been prepared by the Masons and have wanted them against the Decalogue. It does not speak of the duties of man but only of his rights, with the aim of destroying the law of God, so that it is no longer the basis of societies and is replaced by freedom.

The rights of man: the goddess reason, worshiping human reason, all that is the Revolution. Put man in place of God.

How can you imagine an adaptation to these people? It is impossible!

They have wanted to adapt so much that, finally, they have ended up rationalizing our liturgy, which contained so many beautiful, sacred and divine things. They have made them rationalistic and humane. The sacred rite of the Mass has been lowered to make it a meal, a communion and a Eucharist.

They have made a democratization without hierarchy - because there is no longer one - and the priest is no longer more than the designated president , but who could also be appointed by the community. It's horrible to see where that desire for adaptation has taken us.

We cannot use the language of the Protestants and rationalists without becoming such little by little, because that language has a very concrete meaning and expresses very well what they want.

No Catholic can join Freemasonry

So the Pope asks the bishops, first of all, to denounce Masonry: "That they be known as they are": "That the peoples learn from your speeches and pastorals, given for this purpose, the evil arts of such societies to flatter and attract, the perversity of their opinions and the criminality of their deeds. Let no one who considers what his profession of Catholic and his salvation owes to him, judge it lawful by any title to give his name to the Masonic sect, as repeatedly prohibited by Our predecessors. (…)

In addition, it is convenient with frequent sermons and exhortations to induce the crowds to be carefully instructed in the matter of religion, and for this we highly recommend that in timely writings and sermons the main and most holy dogmas that enclose all Christian philosophy are explained. , with which it is possible to heal the understandings through instruction and thus strengthen them against the multiple forms of error.

It's true. The more we know our religion, the more we live it, in particular our liturgy, to which we are so attached and which was once that of the whole Church, and we see ourselves more as immunized against the evil tendencies of rationalism and all its errors.

Prayer for those who fight against the sects

Finally, the Pope, as he has to do, turns to the prayer and ends with it:

«We well know that all our common labors will not be enough to pluck these pernicious seeds from the Lord's field if the owner of the vineyard does not benignly favor our efforts from heaven. It is necessary, therefore, to implore with vehement desire and request their powerful help (...)

Such a fierce assault demands the same defense, that is, that all the good ones unite in a very broad coalition of works and prayers ».

The Pope encourages us to turn to prayer, because in it is our authentic help.

«We therefore ask you, on the one hand, that, by narrowing the ranks, already one firm, you resist against the more and more violent forces of the sectarians; on the other, that they raise their hands to God and plead with him with great groans, so that the Christian religion flourishes with new vigor; May the Church enjoy the necessary freedom; let the straying back to the good path; and that, at last, errors give way to truth, and vices to virtue.

As intercessor and lawyer let us have the Virgin Mary Mother of God (…) Let us also turn to the prince of the good Angels, Saint Michael, the victor of the infernal enemies; and Saint Joseph, husband of the Blessed Virgin, as well as Saint Peter and Saint Paul, great Apostles, sowers and undefeated defenders of the Christian faith, in whose patronage we trust, as well as in the persevering one ( ^Saint Matthew 26, 11. )

everyone's prayer, so that the Lord may come timely and benign to the aid of the human race that is thrown into so many dangers».

Finally, at the end of this very important encyclical and which somehow sums up everything that his predecessors had already said about the Masonic sects, the Pope gives his apostolic blessing.
