American Bishop: Immigration a Great Way to Destroy the USA

The US Conference of Catholic Bishops continues to work for the destruction of the United States of America. The Conference has set January 6-12 to be called, 'National Migration Week 2002,' in response to the pope's July 25, 2001 letter on migration and inter-religious dialogue.

The reason for observing such a week seems very nice - welcoming the poor to our shores and respecting their religions - but below the surface, Rome has other reasons for pushing such an agenda. After all, I don't think the Vatican is welcoming bible believing Protestants to Sicily or Venezuela.

In, 'A Message to Our Children,' Chair of the Committee on Migration Bishop Nicholas DiMarzio, in challenging Americans to surrender their nation to the "benefits" of illegal immigration into the USA writes, "We are afraid our country will change, that we may begin to speak new languages and that we will begin to do things in different ways. We may even be afraid that our churches and schools will begin to change."

Yeah, I'm afraid - because the unabated illegal immigration into the United States will only result in the breakup of the United States. Rome has always hated the Protestant USA - you bet Rome wants "change" here!

Some reasons Rome is driving this are:

1. A strong, Protestant, and unified United States is the main impediment to papal hegemony in world religion. We get a glimpse of the pope's world view in a quote from his July 25 letter, "Humanity has more and more taken on the features of a large village..." Village??? Interesting choice of words! Looks like the pope of Rome and Hillary Clinton are on the same page. We can be sure their "village" view of the world excludes bible believing Protestants.

2. The poverty in Latin America, for example, is a direct result of almost 500 years of being under the Roman heel, and the USA is the perfect safety valve to "export" their problems to and retain the status quo.

3. The prevention of revolutions in Latin America. Yes. The Roman Church (which always sides with the rich) has never fared well when revolutions take place. Can there be a better way of foisting off the problems Roman idolatry has created by sending their problems north of the border! Revolution prevented and the USA torn down - this one is certainly a "win-win" for the Roman Church.

4. Rome created the problem to begin with, and then tries to make Americans feel guilty about being Americans. Rome tells us in mock indignation, "Shame on you for defending your national sovereignty." But guilt is a ploy liberals like to use, and one mastered by Roman clergy in the confessional.

5. Therefore: It is in Rome's interest to ensure Latin America STAYS poor.

Bishop DiMarzio also denies the need for Jesus Christ when he writes, "All these people, from so many different lands...are our sisters and brothers." But the BIBLE says in Galatians 3:26, "FOR YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST." Yes, by faith ALONE in the Jesus of the BIBLE, not the "jesus" of the wafer, nor any Hindu or Moslem versions of a "jesus."

I pray many see that Rome does not care for immigrants, but in building an imperial religion. May Catholics repent, confess Romanism as sin, and receive Christ by faith ALONE. Lord, protect the United States from the Roman Catholic Church!

Pilgrims - Faith Not of Rome

With the American holiday of Thanksgiving coming up, Rome is even twisting the facts about the Protestant, bible-believing Pilgrims, to serve her own ends. This is found in a November 1 article in the, 'West Tennessee Catholic,' in the, "A Message from Dr. McDonald" column, by Dr. Mary McDonald.

She tries to draw parallels between the Pilgrims' struggles and the struggles of Catholics in western Tennessee today, but it turns out to be nothing but an insult to the Pilgrims.

Dr. McDonald writes, "The struggles of those first Pilgrim families, harsh as they were, do not differ greatly from the struggles experienced by families today." I beg her pardon? Of the 102 Pilgrims, half died the first winter, including 10 of the 17 husbands, and 14 of the 17 wives. I don't think the death rate in western Tennessee will be 50% this winter.

Describing the challenges the Pilgrims faced, she writes, "They (Pilgrims) recognized their need and turned to the only two sources they knew, God and neighbor...It was their faith that elevated their souls, enlivened their spirit and gave them courage to proceed..."

This sounds nice, but Dr. McDonald, a local superintendent of Catholic schools no less, neglects to "teach" her readers a few things:

1. She makes NO mention of the BIBLE, and it's role as the Pilgrims' sole authority on faith. Yes, the Pilgrims, "recognized their need and turned," to the BIBLE - not rosaries, wafers, or papal bulls! However, the mission of any Catholic periodical is to keep people FROM studying the BIBLE. Secondly, as a superintendent of Catholic schools, Dr. McDonald is well trained in keeping BIBLICAL references away from people. The last thing she would want in her schools are young students, whose hearts have not yet been hardened by Romish idolatry, reading the BIBLE and seeing that the Catholic Church is a false church!

2. Her church condemned (and still does) people like the Pilgrims. In the 7th Session of the Council of Trent, 'Canon 8' says, "If anyone says that by the sacraments of the New Law grace is not conferred 'ex opere operato,' but that faith ALONE (emphasis mine) in the divine promise is sufficient to obtain grace, let him be anathema." I find it hypocritical that Dr. McDonald tries to exhort her readers by the example of a people her church has cursed. I shudder to think what the Pilgrims fate would have been if the Inquisition or the Conquistadors had got their hands on them.

I pray the Lord uses Thanksgiving to open the hearts of many Catholics to the Christ of the BIBLE. May they repent, confess Rome as sin, and receive by faith ALONE the true Jesus Christ whom the Pilgrims had placed total faith and trust in.

"Diversity" - Bad for America, Good for Rome

Roman archbishop Daniel Pilarczyk of Cincinnati, Ohio continued the over 450 year Catholic "tradition" of attack on Protestant nations in his November 7 lecture titled, 'In Pursuit of Racial Justice.' This lecture was supposed to speak on the race riots that took place in (heavily Catholic, I might add) Cincinnati this past April, but "His Grace" used the lecture as a platform for his liberal and one-world "diversity" views, and to show his contempt for the United States of America.

Like any good liberal, Pilarczyk extols the virtues of "diversity." He said, "We need diversity to make up for the limitations that each of us brings to our common civic existence." Really??? If "diversity" is so wonderful, why aren't Roman bishops in Latin America preaching it? Certainly Latin America could use a little more religious "diversity." Or better yet, how about the city of Rome? Now there's a place that could use a little more "diversity." Or is "diversity" only good for the USA?

"Diversity" is nothing but a liberal code word for the continued fragmentation and balkanization of the United States. A common language, culture, and heritage are vital to the strength of the United States - and Pilarczyk well knows further "diversity" will destroy the United States. He doesn't care, his sworn allegiance is to a man, the pope, not the US Constitution. Our Lord Jesus Christ had a way of describing religious phonies like Daniel Pilarczyk - "HYPOCRITES."

Naturally in such a lecture, the politically correct groups are spoken of nicely. BUT, the only group of people he saves his wrath for are, "White Anglo-Saxon Puritans who distrust everyone but themselves, who insist that everyone believe and behave as they themselves do, who burn witches. Many of our founding fathers were not particularly pleasant people." Whoa! Were the people who settled the USA in the 1600's and 1700's all that bad?

Some thoughts:

1. A Catholic archbishop is the last guy who ought to bring up the subject of burning people.

2. We see the real heart of a Roman clergyman exposed. They hate the fact that the USA was settled by bible-believing Protestants, and that God blessed this land. There's a reason Pilarczyk's Polish ancestors did not emigrate to Mexico or Panama - God would have nothing to do with countries steeped in Romish idolatry - and it shows. Any blessings the Lord gives the USA today is in spite of Catholicism, not because of it.

3. God gave our freedoms in the United States through the Anglo-Saxon common law. Liberty is a foreign concept to the Roman mind.

4. The BIBLE anticipated and describes such men as Archbishop Pilarczyk, with their rage toward those who dare to trust in Christ ALONE by faith ALONE for a full and free salvation. Psalm 37:12-13 says, "THE WICKED PLOTTETH AGAINST THE JUST, AND GNASHETH UPON HIM WITH HIS TEETH. THE LORD SHALL LAUGH AT HIM: FOR HE SEETH THAT HIS DAY IS COMING."

I pray many see that Rome continues to work for the destruction of Protestant nations not under her boot. May Catholics repent and confess their church as sin, forsake Rome forever, and receive Christ by faith ALONE.

"Mr. Bosco...Dream Me a Dream"

Since Roman Catholicism rejects the BIBLE as the sole authority on faith, Rome therefore has to seek other ways to "teach" it's flock in times of trouble. After the September 11 attacks, one such way Catholics are being taught are by the dreams that Catholics are having, and better yet, the dreams of saints!

Penny and Bob Lord (yes, that's their last name) are a Catholic wife and husband team that scour the world for such experiences, one of which is documented in their fall, 2001 newsletter, 'Good Newsletter,' in an article titled, "The Twin Towers and the Two Columns."

The article recounts a dream the 19th century Italian "Saint" John Bosco had. John Bosco (1815-1888) was an Italian priest who started the Roman "Salesian" order. Bosco was famous for his dreams, which began when he was nine years old. He was so well known for dreaming that in 1867, Christ's "personal representative on earth", Pope Pius IX, was so impressed that he asked Bosco to write down in detail what his dreams were!

In this dream, Bosco sees two flotillas of wooden ships engaged in battle. One flotilla has a flagship commanded by the pope, and the pope's flotilla is trying to reach two classic Greek style columns that somehow are standing out in the middle of the ocean. (Ed. note - do you get the analogy? Two columns and the two towers.)

In a picture accompanying the article, one column is 50 feet high, and has a statue of Mary on top with an inscription, "Help of Christians." The other column is about 75 feet high, and has a 10 foot wide Roman eucharistic wafer standing on edge on top with the inscription, "Salvation of believers."

The dream continues, "Standing at the helm (of the flagship), the pope strains every muscle to steer his ship between the two columns from whose summits hang many anchors..." I must admit, the thought of John Paul II straining himself at the helm of a wooden ship seems a bit humorous - I can just picture the silken papal robes flapping in the wind as the pope struggles to stay awake!

(For some of our readers, the poem 'Casabianca' may come to mind: "The boy stood on the burning deck, Whence all but he had fled; The flame that lit the battle's wreck, Shone round him o'er the dead...")

As the battle progresses, "Suddenly the pope falls...(and) dies. A shout of victory rises from the enemy...but no sooner is the pope dead than another takes his place...Breaking through all resistance, the new pope steers the ship safely between the two columns and moors it to the two columns."

John Bosco's conclusion from this dream was, "Only two things can save us in such a grave hour: devotion to Mary and frequent communion."

The conclusion I come to is John Bosco did not believe in Jesus Christ! Bosco was once complimented for his work, and his reply was, "I have done nothing by myself. It is Our Lady who has done everything." This is idolatry - the Catholic Church was guilty of Mary worship then, and the Catholic Church is guilty of Mary worship today. 2 Timothy 4:4 speaks of a time when, "THEY SHALL TURN THEIR EARS AWAY FROM THE TRUTH, AND SHALL BE TURNED UNTO FABLES," and this dream is an example of a fable the BIBLE predicted.

We have a choice - to trust in the teaching from man's mind - Roman Catholicism, or to trust in the teaching from God's mind - the BIBLE! May many Catholics whose famished souls are tired of the false bread of Rome repent of Romanism and receive Christ by faith ALONE.
