The Sat Report: Leo XIV, Habemus Papam
Some brief initial thoughts on the first American Pope
On paper the Cardinals have made a great choice; a Mathematics major, an alum of the Angelicum with a doctorate in Canon law, Augustinian friar, and missionary in Peru. That he is able to speak English will help the Church navigate the world of the Third Millennium no end. That he is American is a significant moment in world history, and should not be underestimated. He is also the first Pope to have operated his own personal twitter account. The poor man is a White Sox fan though. Nobody is perfect.
At Mass this morning offered for the Church at the conclusion of the Conclave, His Holiness delivered an impressive Christ-centred, and what can be described as an anti-modernist sermon. If this first sermon is anything to go by Leo XIV is going to be a great pope. Here it is in full. Please do read it. Here is an excerpt that I found particularly moving:
“Even today, there are many settings in which the Christian faith is considered absurd, meant for the weak and unintelligent. Settings where other securities are preferred, like technology, money, success, power, or pleasure.
These are contexts where it is not easy to preach the Gospel and bear witness to its truth, where believers are mocked, opposed, despised or at best tolerated and pitied. Yet, precisely for this reason, they are the places where our missionary outreach is desperately needed. A lack of faith is often tragically accompanied by the loss of meaning in life, the neglect of mercy, appalling violations of human dignity, the crisis of the family and so many other wounds that afflict our society.
Today, too, there are many settings in which Jesus, although appreciated as a man, is reduced to a kind of charismatic leader or superman. This is true not only among non-believers but also among many baptized Christians, who thus end up living, at this level, in a state of practical atheism.
This is the world that has been entrusted to us, a world in which, as Pope Francis taught us so many times, we are called to bear witness to our joyful faith in Christ the Saviour. Therefore, it is essential that we too repeat, with Peter: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”.”
Just as quickly as one Pontificate ends, another beings. Our Holy Father already has a jammed packed schedule. The first big test will be his press conference with journalists on Monday, May 12th. It will be helpful for him to answer the criticism of his handling of clerical sexual abuse allegations in Chicago and Peru. This will also help set the tone for his Pontificate, and in particular gauge what sort of relationship he will have with the secular media.
In other engagements, on Saturday, the Pope meets with the entire College of Cardinals, before addressing the faithful again on Sunday for his first Regina Caeli address, unusually from the the central loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica. On Friday May 16th, Leo XIV meets with the ambassadors and diplomatic corps accredited to the Holy See. On Sunday May 18th he will celebrate Mass in St. Peter’s Square for the Inauguration of his Petrine Ministry, receiving the Pallium and Fisherman’s ring. On Tuesday May 20th, he will take possession of the Papal Basilica of St. Paul Outside-the-Walls. Wednesday May 21st, he will hold his first General Audience. Saturday May 24th, he will meet with the entire Roman Curia. On Sunday May 25th, he will take possession of the Papal Basilica of St. Mary Major, and of his Cathedral, the Papal Archbasilica of St. John Lateran.
Now briefly, some of my initial impressions. I think for all the great qualities Pope Francis had, a lover of Jesus Christ and Our Blessed Mother, a profound care for the poor and the migrant, he had deep personality flaws that hindered his Pontificate. He was stubborn; the Chile abuse victims, Zanchetta, and Rupnik. He was impatient; the rushed Synodality. He lacked the humility to take advice from people outside of his small circle of papal-pleasing yes-men. He resented criticism, even of the most respectful kind. He could be vindictive.
Leo XIV, on the other hand, is a more reasonable man. He has the humility and temperament fitting of a Pope. I believe he will bring stable and competent leadership back to Rome. I think the priest bashing, name-calling, and rash decisions of the last Pontificate are a thing of the past. The Cardinals have chosen a man who could unify the Church that has been divided for far too long. Instead of the stupid, petty infighting that has dominated ecclesial life for the last 60 years, let us proclaim the Truth and spread the Gospel to the ends of the earth. The Church is the only boat of salvation. We are the only true religion. We must not be ashamed to proclaim this. That was certainly the message I got from the Pope as he addressed the crowds in St. Peter’s Square yesterday, and in his homily to the Cardinals this morning.
The humility Leo XIV showed by donning the mozetta and stole on the central loggia of St. Peter’s Basilica, are indicators of the direction of travel. The Carnival that Pope Francis announced as over, is so back. His name is also significant. Leo XIII has a great unifying Pope. Leo II anathematized his predecessor Pope Honorius I, as a heretic. Leo X excommunicated the archheretic Martin Luther. Leo IV fought the Arab invaders of Europe. What this all means, time will tell. I am hopeful.
His Pontificate will be shaped by who he chooses for positions of leadership in the Roman Curia. Personnel is key. Who he chooses to lead the Secretariat of State, the Governorate of the Vatican City State, in a dire financial predicament, and the Doctrine of the Faith, will be key. The poor governance on matters of doctrine and law, that have been the norm for past 12 years, must not be repeated. The dicastery for Communication needs reform, and as many on twitter have postulated, Bishop Robert Barron is the man for the job. Who he chooses to lead prominent dioceses around the world will also affect the Church. In America alone New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, will all have new Metropolitan Archbishops soon.
The Synodality will move forward, probably not at the frantic pace of Francis, and it will probably work, precisely because it isn’t being rushed. If it not the way to address the problems in the Church, then I am certain that Leo XIV will change course. He is an intellegent man, a man of dialogue, who truly listens. He is going to be the Pope for a very long time, he will certainly leave a lasting impact on the Church.
The Church is in good hands.
KATECHON - The End Times.
On Monday, June 30th 2025, an announcement has been made by the agents of satan from the Vatican about the advacement of the evil work for the Katechon [Papacy|Pope - 2 Thessalonians 2:6,7] to be taken out of the way via the diabolical "synodality" [satanodality] which will make way for the Antichrist to manifest himself & begin his evil manifest reign which is not far from now.
2 Thessalonians 2: 6 And now you know what [Papacy (nueter)] withholdeth, that he [Antichrist] may be revealed in his time. 7 For the mystery of iniquity already worketh: only that he [Pope (he)] who now holdeth do hold, until he [Pope] be taken out of the way. 8 And then that wicked one [Antichrist] shall be revealed: whom the Lord Jesus shall kill with the spirit of his mouth and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.
The Papacy|Pope the highest earthly authority established by GOD is the Katechon/Restrainer (2 Thessalonias 2:6,7). The Katechon is an absolute block for the Antichrist to manifest himself & begin His evil reign. The Katechon has to be taken out of the way for the Antichrist to manifest himself & begin his manifest evil reign of three & a half years which will continue from his hidden reign of three & a half years. The total reign of the Antichrist is 7 years, 3.5 hidden + 3.5 manifest (Daniel 9:27). Note: Taken out of the way & not taken away because the papacy/pope cannot be taken away until the end of the world. The evil work of the diabolical synodality permitted by GOD which includes in its agenda the false decentralisation of the Papacy (false concepts of "first among equals" & "bishop of rome" & not Vicar of CHRIST & the visible head of the Church) is the work of satan via his False Prophet Prevost (P. Leo XIV) to take the Katechon out of the way for the Antichrist to manifest himself & begin his manifest evil global reign. From the start of the Church the "deep" anti-Church & "deep" anti-state evil combination exists on earth, for the mystery of iniquity already worketh (2 Thessalonias 2:7). It is restrained by the Katechon [Papacy|Pope] (2 Thessalonias 2,3)]. The coming out of the "deep" anti-Church & "deep" anti-state evil combination will begin once the Antichrist manifests himself and begins his short manifest reign. Along with the manifestation of the Antichrist will simulatneously take place the loosening of satan who has been chained in hell (Apocalypse 20:3), which took place from the moment GOD JESUS CHRIST died on the Cross. Apocalypse 17:8 The beast [satan] which thou sawest, was, and is not, and shall come up out of the bottomless pit and go into destruction. GOD JESUS CHRIST will kill the Antichrist, destroy the satanic new world disorder and end the world by fire on His final coming.
On 27 June 2025 the agents of satan from Vatican starting with the current Pope of the Catholic Church P. Leo XIV (Prevost the False Prophet of the end times) "approved" pathways for the implementation phase of the synod. The text, structured around four chapters, aims first & foremost to provide an interpretive key for understanding the implementation phase of the synodal process. From the introductory letter: “the synodal form of the church [false church (anti-church) of satan infiltrated inside the Catholic Church in the end times] is at the service of its mission [mission for the new world -dis-order reign of the Antichrist to offend GOD & lead souls to hell], and any change [revolt against GOD] in the life of the church [anti-church] is intended to make it more capable of proclaiming the kingdom of God [in reality the kingdom of satan via the Antichrist] and bearing witness to the Gospel of the Lord [false gospel of the Antichrist via the False Prophet Prevost (Current Pope P. Leo XIV] to the men and women of our time.” The evil pathways for the implementation phase of the evil synod will be available on Monday, 7 July 2025.
For there shall be then great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, neither shall be. (St. Matthew 24:21). This period will be permitted by GOD as a trial, purification & salvation for the elect & a punishment in this life & for all eternity in the torments hell for the reprobates. GOD wants total fidelity to Him which is only possible by His grace which comes only through His only Church the Catholic Church, which He gives ONLY & ONLY to the truly humble (not the false humility of the apostasy). The Catholic Church is perpetual in her existence & indefectible in her essential form. The Catholic Church is perpetually indefectible in HER ESSENTIAL FORM. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WILL STAY IN HER ESSENTIAL FORM TILL THE END, NO MATTER WHAT. Catholic = According to the whole (not parts) - Catholic Doctrine, Worship | Holy Mass; Sacraments & Hierarchy. Acts of the Apostles 2:42 And they were persevering in the doctrine of the apostles and in the communication of the breaking of bread and in prayers. It is a sin of grave matter to partake in the sacrileges & other evils that have been & are rampantly going on in the legal structures of the Catholic Church. It is a sin of grave matter to offer & assist at masses & to administer & receive sacarments outside the legal structures of the Catholic Church.
This period of great tribulation [the manifest reign of the Antichrist] is close, but not from this year. The Catholic Church will be almost desolate during those three & a half years, but she will remain invincible and unconquered, for GOD, who is faithful to His word, has said that the gates of hell shall not prevail against her. (St. Matthew 16:19). It is at this juncture that grace will appear in all its grandeur and efficacy. GOD will not leave His Church a disarmed prey to such a formidable enemy. He will assist Her by invisible and visible means. The elect aided by GOD's never failing all powefull grace, will receive from GOD His Victory in this life and forever in Heaven. What a sublime spectacle !
The final coming of GOD JESUS CHRIST gets nearer; the end of the world gets nearer; the final victory of GOD who is Victory Himself & that which He communicates to His Saints gets nearer.
Apocalypse 3: 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I will also keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon the whole world to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold fast that which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
tick, tick .. tick, tick .. tick, tick - END & an eternal beginning in Heaven or hell. The choice is ones to make.
Blessed be the one and only true GOD now and forever !
The biggest evil permitted by GOD in these end times is deception. A punishment for the reprobates.
What is happening is the formation of the diabolical synthesis for the antichrist via the false prophet prevost (the current Pope, Pope Leo XIV) from the diabolical thesis the novus -dis-ordo and its diabolical anti thesis the trad movement (tradus -dis-ordo controlled fake opposition).
The 1) trad -dis-ordo, 2) tradnovus -dis-ordo and 3) novus -dis-ordo are cockle to deceive.
It is de fide that there has to be Bishops sent by the Pope with mission and jurisdiction until the end of time. This is one of the easiest way to know the Catholic Church, the only true Church of GOD. It is also de fide that the Church has to have a visible hierarchy at all times. The Church was without a Pope between 1268 and 1271, but it still had a hierarchy with Cardinals trying to elect a Pope. The Catholic Church will always stay in her essential. Catholic = according to the whole - Catholic Doctrine, Worship | Sacraments and Hierarchy. THE ESSENTIAL FORM WILL STAY NO MATTER WHAT. Acts of the Apostles 42 And they were persevering in the doctrine of the apostles and in the communication of the breaking of bread and in prayers. Even if Pope Leo XIV (Prevost the false prophet of the end times) does a public satanic black mass. The Church is perpetual in her existence and indefectible in her essential form. The Church is perpetually indefectible in HER ESSENTIAL FORM. The Church has only one lineage. Sedevecantism, sspx (practical schismatics), independent from GOD movement (practical schismatics) etc. are works and temptations of satan to jump the ship into the sea of hell. The excommunicated schismatic Archbishop Lefebvre a damned soul in hell is the common father of the anti GOD trad movement, a diabolical controlled false opposition 'deep hell operation' of satan, belonged to satan. The devil comes in the form of an Angel of light. The agent of the devil Lefebvre wrote to "confused Catholics" to confuse them all the more. His evil work is a decoy for those who knew the evils that had taken place in the Church primarily from the 1960's. To take them away from knowing and understanding the actual problem and doing GOD's will in response to it, by presenting a false solution to the problem. The solution is always in the legal structures of the Church. It is a sin of grave matter against the first commandment to offer mass and adminsiter sacraments without the permission of the Church. PERIOD ! The ends NEVER justify the means. No saint would ever dare do this. Catholic Doctrine: Whoever will eat the lamb outside this house is profane. When one knowingly does not worship GOD in accordance with His will that is in spirit and in truth GOD permits them to fall into base sins of the flesh (Romans 1). The sspx is an outstanding example of this. The wicked evil bad fruits of child abuse have been massive. The worse is the cover up of it. GOD has clearly shown that they are not of Him. He has clearly shown that His protecting hand is not over them. The society of satanic peverts multiplied (sspx). Supplied jurisdiction does not come from thin air. It has to come from the Church through the Pope. Either one accepts the Pope having jurisdiction over the whole Church which is dogma or not. He can be the most wicked evil man on earth. GOD is in absolute control. NEVER ever can a Pope use the keys to end the Church. GOD could permit Popes to do various evils but such can never put an end to the essential form of the Church. NEVER. This is common sense. The right understanding of indefectibility and infallibility. The keys of the kingdom of Heaven are given to the Popes but THEY DO NOT BELONG to the Popes, they belong to GOD JESUS CHRIST. The Popes cannot do whatever they want with them. Isaias 22:22 And I will lay the key of the house of David upon his shoulder: and he shall open, and none shall shut: and he shall shut, and none shall open. Apocalypse 3:7 And to the angel of the church of Philadelphia write: These things saith the Holy One and the true one, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth and no man shutteth, shutteth and no man openeth:.
It is the hallmark of heretics and schismatics to weaponize the evils permitted by GOD inside His Church to try to destroy the Church and tear the flock apart.
Catholics have to do the will of GOD which is only possible by staying inside the Church. They cannot leave the Church nor partake in the evils going on inside the peripheries of the Church (false church of satan infiltrated inside the peripheries of the church in these end times).
Most of the disciples of GOD JESUS ran away when they saw Him hanging torn on the cross. They said he cannot be GOD. So in the same way one cannot say that this cannot be the Church because of the things GOD has permitted to befall on her. What the head has gone through the body also has to. This is a short hour permitted by GOD to the devil and his agents for His greater glory, the salavtion of the elect and the punishment of the reprobate.
The final coming of GOD JESUS CHRIST is not far from now.
St. Jude 1: 20 But you, my beloved, building yourselves upon your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, 21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ, unto life everlasting.
