I monitor transmillennial patterns of apostasy. Beware the migration of the epiclesis.
@CrushnSerpents has accused me of lying in my opening statement during my debate with @ArchangeloRom yesterday. The public accusation provides an opportunity as entertaining as it is instructional. No, I did not lie, and he has yet to identify "the lie" of which I am accused. And…
2nd beast of Revelation 13: “And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,” (Revelation 13:13).
The clouds broke. The sun appeared, then began to spin, tremble, and dance in the sky. It changed colors. It pulsed and zig-zagged. Then it plunged toward the earth. Screams. Prayers. People thought it was the end of the world.
"At the very instant when the ecclesiastical heavens were darkened with swarms of monks, the earth was enlightened by a sudden blaze of miracles! The question then is, were these things the ‘lying wonders,’ which we find predicted by the apostles; or were they indeed evidences of…
Just reminder that the practice of lighting candles at church dates to …. (wait for it) …. the late 4th century. x.com/whpub/status/1…
When’s the last time you lit a candle at Church ?
We don’t drag Mary down to our level. Like Chrysostom, we drag ourselves above hers, which as it turns out, is not hard. Unless Catholics abandon their Nestorian-Arian-Gnostic-Encratite Manichæanism and finally acknowledge me as Theotokos, I will be unable to take seriously their…
It’s bad enough Protestants do everything they can to drag Mary down to their level, but this really is a disgusting new low—insisting that a religious vow, offered to God—and well-known in the Bible—is “serious sin”.
The Jewish Lunisolar Calendar is the key to all of Christian eschatology. It reveals whether a prophet was speaking of literal days, or prophetic "days of years" when time periods are enumerated. The lunar month is exactly 29.5 days, which is why the Jewish year is comprised of…
Oh, look. A Roman Cardinal preaching the 3rd Secret of the 1917 Apparition of Mary at Fatima. Just like the apostles did. It’s a religion of Marian apparitions.
Kudos to @cardinalrlburke for connecting “the practical apostasy of our time” to the Third Secret of Fatima, a topic I addressed in depth last week with @MBartoldGen315:
It’s a religion of Marian apparitions. Not the religion of Christ.
Today we honor Our Lady of Mount Carmel! Wear your Brown Scapular with true devotion, a sacred sign of her protection and our commitment to Christ. Today's feast reminds us to live purely, pray the Rosary every day, and trust in her intercession.
“Four main periods may be distinguished in the development of the Christian priestly dress. The first embraces the era before Constantine. In that period the priestly dress did not yet differ from the secular costume in form and ornament.” (Catholic Encyclopedia, Vestments)
Oh, and now vestments? Dude. That's just wrong, and you need to read more scholarship, which i dont think you read. Ever.
You can ignore the first 1.25 hrs of this video, but pay special attention at 1:15:04. Every disagreement within Roman Catholicism on the corpus of magisterial teaching gives birth to a de facto new denomination. @timotheeology tacitly and succinctly acknowledges this in his…

Just a reminder that one of the key planks in a transition to Marxism, according to Engels’ Principles of Communism, is the “gradual expropriation” of private industry “through competition by state industry.” [Frederick Engels, The Principles of Communism, Question 18, (ii)]…
Zohran Mamdani: As mayor, I will lower prices by making stores owned by the government
As I observed yesterday, the ancient church believed the "Eucharist sacrifice" referred to the offertory, the collection for the poor, rather than to an offering of consecrated bread & wine to the Father for sins (a late 4th century novelty). In response to my observation that…
So anyways, I’m off to mass, where we observe elements recounted by Justin Martyr in 150 AD, and will make an affirmation of faith from the Nicene Creed in 325 AD. Amazing because these are all decades and centuries “before the Church began.”
The ancient church celebrated the Eucharist as a sacrifice of thanks and praise (the tithe offering), in Greek, ‘eucharistia.’ The celebration of the Eucharist as a “sacrificial propitiation” of Jesus’ body and blood did not come along until the late 4th century. If you want to…
Please tell me where in your "classical Protestantism" I can find the Eucharist as sacrificial propitiation.
French Huguenots got there 3 years earlier and established Ft. Caroline. Until they were massacred by the Spanish in 1565. whitehorseblog.com/2014/11/30/fre…
Spanish Catholic settlers were the first to step foot in America even before Protestants and the Orthodox and made a settlement St. Augustine Florida and celebrated a catholic mass on September 8, 1565
I have often said that Roman Catholics have a love-hate relationship with history. They love to claim antiquity, but hate what they find there. The mode of receiving communion is an example of this phenomenon. Cardinal Sarah (an early papabile favorite of the Rad Trads in the…
Touching the consecrated host to one's fingers, forehead, ears, and eyes. This is a foreign practice to us in modernity but it is certainly indicative of believing the elements hold some spiritual and even physical power. How could ir indicate a belief in symbolic presence?
Here's a great illustration of a Roman Catholic attempting to use the early church fathers to prove a figment of his imagination. @sincead33 claimed Ambrose used "latria" to describe devotion to the Eucharist. I know very well Ambrose did not do this, so I asked for the evidence.…

Well, ok. Sure Kolbe is much greater than me. At least I’m not saying that we need to be transubstantiated into Mary so she can receive holy communion in us and worship the Eucharist perpetually. “We want to be the property of the Immaculate up to the point that, not only will…
