…but, come on, aren’t and haven’t many, if not all, these things coming/have come to pass?
St Anthony of the Desert (4th Century) Disquisition CXIV: Men will surrender to the spirit of the age. They will say that if they had lived in our day, Faith would be simple and easy. But in their day, they will say, things are complex; the Church must be brought up to date and made meaningful to the day’s problems. When the Church and the World are one, then those days are at hand. Because our Divine Master placed a barrier between His things and the things of the world" (Quoted in Voice of Fatima, January 23, 1968)
Venerable Bartholomew Holzhauser (born in the 17th century) During this unhappy period, there will be laxity in divine and human precepts. Discipline will suffer. The Holy Canons will be completely disregarded, and the Clergy will not respect the laws of the Church. Everyone will be carried away to believe and do what he fancies, according to the manner of flesh.
They will ridicule Christian simplicity; they will call it folly and nonsense, but they will have the highest regard for advanced knowledge, and for the skill by which the axioms of the law, the precepts of morality, the Holy Canons and religious dogmas are clouded by senseless questions and elaborate arguments. As a result, no prinicple at all, however holy, authentic, ancient and certain it may be, will remain free of censure, criticism, false interpretations, modification, and delimitation by man.
These are evil times, a century full of dangers and calamities. Heresy is everywhere, and the followers of heresy are almost everywhere. Bishops, prelates, priests say that they are doing their duty, that they are vigilant, and that they live as befits their state in life. In like manner, therefore, they all seek excuses. But God will permit a great evil against His Church: Heretics and tyrants will come suddenly and unexpectedly; they will break into the Church whilebishops, prelates, and priests are asleep. They will enter Italy and lay Rome waste; they will burn down the Church and destroy everything.
The 6th period of the Church will begin with the powerful Monarch and the Holy Pontiff…
Bl. Anne Katarina Emmerick (Sept. 12, 1820) "I saw a strange church being built against every rule…No angels were supervising the building operations. In that church, nothing came from high above…There cwas only division and chaos. It is probably a church of human creation, following the latest fashion, as well as the new heterodox church of Rome, which seems of the same kind…
"I saw again the strange, big church that was being built there (in Rome). There was nothing holy in it.I saw this just as I saw a movement led by Ecclesiastics to wich contributed angels, saints and other Christians. But there (in the strange big church) all the work was being done mechanically (i.e. according to set rules and formulae). Everything was being done by human reson…
“I saw all sorts of people, things, doctrines, and opinions. There was something proud, presumptuous and even violent about it, and they all seemed to be very successful. I did not see a single Angel or a single saint helping in the work. But far away in the background, I saw the seat of a cruel people armed with spears, and I saw a laughing figure which said: ‘do build it as solid as you can; we will pull it to the ground.’”
January 27, 1822. “I saw a new Pope who will be very strict. He will estrange from him the cold and lukewarmbishops. He is not a Roman, but he is Italian. He comes from a place not far from Rome, and I think he comes from a devout family of royal blood. But there must still be for a while much fighting and unrest.”
April 22, 1823. “I saw that many pastors allowed themselves to be taken up by new ideas that were dangerous to the Church. They were building a great, strange, and extravagant Church. Everyone was to admitted in it in order to be united and have equal rights: Evangelicals, Catholics, sects of every description. Such was to be the new Church…But God had other designs.”
Nursing Nun of Bellay, whose writings were in care of a Trappist monastery, wrote that former disciplines will be returned to the Church
These passages came from Yves Dupont’s “Catholic Prophecy: The Coming Chastisement”.
That is not to say that the N.O. Mass is invalid or illicit or that the Church is fallible, as God clearly protects it, if renewal means chastisements and as those things declared formally ex Cathedra are infallible, not the clerics’ politics or policies–though Church laws, though not eternally declared, like no Communion for Protestants or those in mortal sin, do require observance. We should still pray for clerics and be thankful they can give us the sacraments, as St. Francis did. Still, if you have an indult traditional Latin Mass near enough, it’s worth making your “parish”. I n KC, Mo., one church might as well be a parish.
