Archbishop Carlo Viganó advised Catholics, and all Christians and people of faith, of the means by which the conspirators for a New World Order wanted to achieve their nefarious ends can be defeated.
“We, believers in Christ Our Only Lord, have no reason to fear, even against all human reason: we know that, reborn in Baptism, we are no longer servants but children of God, and that by preserving the friendship of our Lord with Grace we can trust in Him, in His provident help, in His powerful protection.
“Ultimately, this is true freedom: the freedom of the children of God, who obey His law not out of fear but out of love, not out of compulsion but because in adhering to the divine will they will find their own perfect fulfillment and their complete realization.
“For every soul is created for the greater glory of God, for eternal bliss as a reward of fidelity to the Saviour. ‘Don’t let our hearts be troubled!’”
Indeed, why should we be troubled? We know that as long as we adhere to Christ, no power on earth can succeed. History, since the beginning of the Christian era tells us, and as Christ has foretold, there will be tribulations and persecution but He assured us, He will conquer. The rise and fall of empires, dictators and totalitarian governments are clear evidence that the plans of those who make themselves gods are crushed to the dust.
In fact recent reports already signal the self-destruction of the conspirators and the opportunists of this pandemic and the bundles of restrictions against our freedoms. More people are seeing the light. But I shall elaborate on these events in succeeding discussions.
Still encouraging the faithful not to lose heart, the archbishop said, “The manoeuvres of those who work in darkness are coming to light, showing themselves in all their horror and revealing their perverse and infernal matrix. Lies, deceptions, violence and death. This is the harsh reality of evil before which people of goodwill can only be horrified.
“If Our Lord deigns to listen to the prayers of His children, this castle of lies and fraud will collapse miserably, and its architects will have to go back into hiding to escape the rigors of justice and the execration of peoples. These are decisive hours: we continue to pray, to recite the Holy Rosary, to nourish ourselves with the Most Holy Eucharist, to do penance.”
“To do penance.” That does not seem to be a call of the leaders of the Church. The oratio imperata, the one last year and now, have not recognized the high possibility that this pandemic is a chastisement. While the mandated prayers seek the Lord’s assistance to lift the suffering of mankind, there is no recognition that mankind has fallen into sins that cry to heaven for vengeance and for which we ask forgiveness – legalized abortion, euthanasia, homosexuality, transgenderism, liberalism, religious indifferentism, heresies and infidelities even of the clergy. Could the images of Sodom and Gomorrah be far behind?
The archbishop rightly calls for penance because, “The choral voice that rises up to the throne of the divine Majesty will not remain unheard. Let us not be discouraged, because it is in the moment of trial that the Lord gives us the opportunity to show our trust in Him and to see the greatness of His mercy.
“Whatsoever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son” (Jn 14, 13). Our Lord told us clearly: anything. We, therefore, ask the Father, in the name of the Son our Lord and Redeemer, through the intercession of His most holy Mother our powerful mediator, to show His glory, to grant the exaltation of Holy Church, peace and prosperity to the Christian peoples, the conversion of sinners, the defeat of His enemies.
“God arises, and his enemies will be scattered, and those who hate him will flee before him” (Psalm 68:1).”
Archbishop Viganó’s optimism is now taking physical shape, something we can see, hear and observe in the way things are developing. The petty gods are showing they really are mere dust. They cannot recreate God’s work.
