Can we all agree that the, ‘Infallible’, God Authorized Church Leaders, Church Synod and Church Council of Caiaphas in 33 A.D., in spite of having the Holy Spirit with them, failed miserably! With Jesus Incarnate, St. Peter and the Holy Spirit participating in the Church Council of Caiaphas, many Catholics would think the Church Council of Caiaphas should be seen by the Catholic Church as infallible. Also, when Jesus, ‘‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be dispersed’ in Apocalyptic times, is the shepherd struck by Jesus, infallible?

I see a similarity between the infallible God Authorized Church leader Caiaphas’ Synod, and Pope Francis’ Synod. Both Caiaphas and Pope Francis had years of studying the teachings from Jesus ahead of their Church Councils. Jesus Himself, along with St. Peter and the Holy Spirit, participated in the infallible God Authorized Church, Church Synod and Council of Caiaphas in 33 AD. To me, it seems obvious as to what caused the infallible Church Council of Caiaphas to fail. Other Catholics may want to put our best Catholic Theologians on it, to do decades of intense research, in order to figure out how God’s infallible God Authorized, Church Leaders of the Church Council of Caiaphas, along with Jesus Incarnate, St. Peter and the Holy Spirit, could have failed.

Matthew 26:57 Jesus Before the Sanhedrin.

Those who had arrested Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. Peter was following him at a distance as far as the high priest’s courtyard, and going inside he sat down with the servants to see the outcome. The chief priests and the entire Sanhedrin kept trying to obtain false testimony against Jesus in order to put him to death, but they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward who stated, “This man said, ‘I can destroy the temple of God and within three days rebuild it.’” The high priest rose and addressed him, “Have you no answer? What are these men testifying against you? But Jesus was silent. Then the high priest said to him, “I order you to tell us under oath before the living God whether you are the Messiah, the Son of God.” Jesus said to him in reply, “You have said so. But I tell you:

From now on you will see ‘the Son of Man

seated at the right hand of the Power’

and ‘coming on the clouds of heaven.’”

Then the high priest tore his robes and said, “He has blasphemed! What further need have we of witnesses? You have now heard the blasphemy; what is your opinion?” They said in reply, “He deserves to die!” Then they spat in his face and struck him, while some slapped him, saying, “Prophesy for us, Messiah: who is it that struck you?”

When we see Jesus’ Matthew 24 sign for Jesus’ Second Coming, which is the “Desolating Abomination” “Standing in the Holy Place”, this triggers another Apocalyptic event. Jesus says that He will strike the Shepherd so His sheep will be dispersed. Which makes sense. Jesus doesn't want His Faithful to follow a “Desolating Abomination”.

Zechariah 13:7 Oracles Concerning the End of False Prophecy. The Song of the Sword.

Awake, O sword, against my shepherd, against the one who is my associate—oracle of the LORD of hosts. Strike the shepherd that the sheep may be scattered; I will turn my hand against the little ones. In all the land—oracle of the LORD—two thirds of them will be cut off and perish, and one third will be left. I will bring the one third through the fire; I will refine them as one refines silver, and I will test them as one tests gold. They will call upon my name, and I will answer them; I will say, “They are my people,” and they will say, “The LORD is my God.”

There is a slight difference in Jesus’ delivery in His apocalyptic quote from Zechariah. Zechariah’s prophecy states “strike the shepherd...” Jesus quotes it as, “I will strike the shepherd…”. USCCB Bible notes reference both Zechariah 13 and Matthew 24 “The Destruction of the Temple Foretold”, to Jesus’ Matthew 26:31 ‘I will strike the shepherd and the sheep of the flock will be dispersed’, quote.

Matthew 26:31

‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be dispersed’

USCCB NABRE Bible Note for Matthew 26:31

Will have…shaken: literally, “will be scandalized in me”; see note on Mt 24:9–12. I will strike…dispersed: cf. Zec 13:7.

Matthew 24 The Destruction of the Temple Foretold

USCCB NABRE Bible Note for Matthew 24:9-12

Matthew has used Mk 13:9–12 in his missionary discourse (Mt 10:17–21) and omits it here. Besides the sufferings, including death, and the hatred of all nations that the disciples will have to endure, there will be worse affliction within the church itself. This is described in Mt 24:10–12, which are peculiar to Matthew. Will be led into sin: literally, “will be scandalized,” probably meaning that they will become apostates; see Mt 13:21 where “fall away” translates the same Greek word as here. Betray: in the Greek this is the same word as the hand over of Mt 24:9. The handing over to persecution and hatred from outside will have their counterpart within the church. False prophets: these are Christians; see note on Mt 7:15–20. Evildoing: see Mt 7:23.

Jeremiah 23:1 A Just Shepherd.

Woe to the shepherds who mislead and scatter the flock of my pasture, says the LORD.

Therefore, thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, against the shepherds who shepherd my people: You have scattered my sheep and driven them away. You have not cared for them, but I will take care to punish your evil deeds. I myself will gather the remnant of my flock from all the lands to which I have driven them and bring them back to their meadow; there they shall increase and multiply. I will appoint shepherds for them who will shepherd them so that they need no longer fear and tremble; and none shall be missing, says the LORD.

Behold, the days are coming, says the LORD, when I will raise up a righteous shoot to David; as king he shall reign and govern wisely, he shall do what is just and right in the land. In his days Judah shall be saved, Israel shall dwell in security. This is the name they give him:

"The LORD our justice."

Matthew 24:3 The Great Tribulation

“Tell us, when will this happen, and what sign will there be of your coming, and of the end of the age?”...

…“When you see the desolating abomination spoken of through Daniel the prophet standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then those in Judea must flee to the mountains...

...for at that time there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will be.

Divine Mercy in My Soul, 635 The Blessed Virgin Mary

... you have to speak to the world about His great mercy and prepare the world for the Second Coming of Him who will come, not as a merciful Savior, but as a just Judge. Oh, how terrible is that day! Determined is the day of justice, the day of divine wrath. The angels tremble before it. Speak to souls about this great mercy while it is still the time for [granting] mercy. If you keep silent now, you will be answering for a great number of souls on that terrible day. …

Acts of the Apostles 26:17

I shall deliver you from this people and from the Gentiles to whom I send you, to open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God,

Matthew 6:9 The Lord's Prayer

your kingdom come,

your will be done on earth as it is in heaven .../

/... Subject us not to trial but

deliver us from the evil one.'

Divine Mercy in My Soul, 429

I heard these words spoken distinctly and forcefully within my soul, You will prepare the world for My final coming.
