My Beloved Children,
Come to Me, My little children, and I will make you fishers of men. Just as I converted Peter and the apostles—most of whom were fishermen—into fishers of men to bring them to Me and make them know God, their Savior, so too do I use you, My children, to bring My Word, My Gospel, to your fellow human beings. You read My words, and you are happy because I am God and because God always has so much to offer each of His children. He bestows His graces of conversion, His graces of sanctification, and His graces of perfection upon all who listen to Him, pray to Him, and desire to live as true Christians.
For two thousand years, the Church has experienced great moments of growth, conversions, and evangelization throughout the world, but there have been schisms, separations, and errors that have weakened its expansion. There were the heresies (1) of the early centuries; in the 11th century, there was the significant schism of the Orthodox, who, due to a different interpretation of the Creed, refused to recognize the authority of the successor of Peter. In the 16th century, there was the pride and lust of King Henry VIII of England, who led his kingdom into Anglicanism; there was the revolt of Luther and Calvin, who led a great many gullible and rebellious people into numerous Protestant sects. There were many seditions within the Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, through which it was guided, with God’s help, by the successors of Peter.
The great Council of Trent (1545–1563) brought about a major Catholic consolidation and restored discipline to the Church. The Holy Church continued to face persecutions, fomented by infiltrated political parties or by ideological movements (free thought, liberalism, modernism…), against which the popes of the 19th and 20th centuries spoke out and condemned them.
There was the Syllabus of the Principal Errors of the Present Time and the encyclical “Quanta Cura” by Blessed Pope Pius IX,
there was the great encyclical of Leo XIII on the sect of the Freemasons, “Humanum Genus,”
there was “Pascendi Dominici Gregis,” in which Saint Pius X denounced modernism, which, he said, could be considered the synthesis of all heresies.
There was “Mortalium Animos” by Pius XI denouncing ecumenism,
There was “Humani Generis” by Pius XII against the new theology, and many other encyclicals, decrees, sermons, and expositions.
Then came the Second Vatican Council, called for by Pope John XXIII to ‘open the Church to the world,’ and the world rushed in, even though I had said to My apostles: “If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, since My choice has drawn you out of the world, the world hates you. ” (Jn 15:19). The new modernists of the new theology—some of whom had been formally condemned by Pius XII and whose most well-known figures were Father Henri de Lubac, Father Karl Rahner, the philosopher Maurice Blondel, Father Teilhard de Chardin, Father Hans Urs von Balthasar, and Father Yves Congar—had a considerable influence at the Council. The change was such that Cardinal Suenens (1904–1996), moderator at the Council, declared with satisfaction: “The Second Vatican Council is 1789 within the Church.”
Following this disastrous council, profound changes were made to the Catholic liturgy and the sacraments, making them acceptable to Protestant pastors. Then came the schism between the multitude of Christians who actively or passively followed the modernist movement imposed upon them and those who wished to preserve Tradition—that is, the two-thousand-year-old religion handed down from the apostles.
Modernist thought was decreed to be the official Catholic religion, and this was followed by a considerable decline in religious practice.
Churches emptied, the number of religious vocations plummeted, convents and monasteries were sold, the number of priests dropped drastically, and the promised “new wind” resulted in the impoverishment of Catholic vitality and the end of the “missions” that had still been flourishing in the 19th century and the first half of the 20th. To give a concrete example:
in 1950, the number of ordinations in France was 1,000; in 2025, it was 90—a staggering drop of 91%. Less religious practice means less faith, hence fewer vocations. “Every good tree bears good fruit, while a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, you will recognize them by their fruits” (Mt 7:17–20).
In more down-to-earth terms, I refer you to a song from 1970: “He spoke the truth; he must be executed.” Thus, over time, all those who oppose the so-called correct version—the religiously correct, the politically correct, that is, the language intended to offend diverse sensibilities as little as possible—will be called upon to remain silent so that the truth does not shock error.
This is how ecclesiastical leaders will invite or receive Protestants but not Catholics who have remained faithful to Catholic Tradition. This is how a pope on an official visit will kiss the Quran or receive a red mark on his forehead, the Tilakor Tika, a sign of recognition among worshippers of Shiva;
these acts were considered gestures of politeness, but would I have agreed, during My time on earth, to politely bear upon Myself the mark of the demon? For it is too often forgotten that pagan gods are demons—real and dangerous.
My Children, I, the Lord speaking to you, call you to Me. I need you, your faithfulness, your love for the Truth, for I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. My Holy Spirit guides the Holy Church, My bride, through the centuries, but could she have been mistaken for twenty centuries to such an extent that upholding Tradition would be a false path? When I promised her divine help, I did not promise her the absence of temptation, but divine help to triumph over temptation. Pray, then, that she may overcome her temptations and remain faithful, or if she strays, that she may return to what she has always taught, always believed, and always defended.
My dearest Children, I do not change and will never change. I will refute error and defend the Truth; I am God, and I created humanity for its beauty, for its holiness, for its love. Be like Me and in My image: upright, just, and always active in defending the rights of God, My Heavenly Father, the Triune God, the Eternal God.
I love you; I await you.
I bless you, in the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit †. So be it.
Your Lord and Master, your God
