Francis is not the Pope

Deutsch     Magyar

“Here, allow me to go back once again to 19 April 2005. The real gravity of the decision was also due to the fact that from that moment on I was engaged always and forever by the Lord. Always – anyone who accepts the Petrine ministry no longer has any privacy. He belongs always and completely to everyone, to the whole Church. In a manner of speaking, the private dimension of his life is completely eliminated. […] 

The ‘always’ is also a ‘for ever’ – there can no longer be a return to the private sphere. My decision to resign the active exercise of the ministry does not revoke this. I do not return to private life, to a life of travel, meetings, receptions, conferences, and so on. I am not abandoning the cross, but remaining in a new way at the side of the crucified Lord. I no longer bear the power of office for the governance of the Church, but in the service of prayer I remain, so to speak, in the enclosure of Saint Peter. Saint Benedict, whose name I bear as Pope, will be a great example for me in this. He showed us the way for a life which, whether active or passive, is completely given over to the work of God.”

Antipope “Francis” is a heretic and an apostate

Published on 10.20.2024.

Antipope “Francis” (Jorge Bergoglio) is a heretic and an apostate, and therefore not a member of the Catholic Church. Thus, he cannot be the Pope.

Snippets from Argentina

Published on 06.23.2024.

There are a lot of little things about the Argentinian background of the so-called “Pope Francis” (Jorge Bergoglio), which are not reported on widely. This article presents a couple of them.

“The Catholic may not just sit tight and wait for a future pope to rule on a matter which requires immediate action now. We must distinguish between the false pastors of the false church, and the true pastors of the Catholic Church. Now that the Enemy has taken control of the apparatus of the Holy See, we must denounce and condemn the wolves in sheep’s clothing; from whom the pastor has fled. We must separate ourselves from them; and have no bond of communion with them. Now that the “mystery of iniquity” [2 Thessalonians 2:7] with its “operation of error” [2 Thessalonians 2:10] has taken hold of the reins of power in the Vatican, we must sever all bonds with it, reject its heresies and remain in full communion with the Catholic Church by adhering to her faith, sacraments and discipline.” (Fr. Paul Kramer, link)
