"Qui legit, intelligat"
 In Father Louis Campbell's sermon for the First Sunday of Advent, he reminds us of the promised Second Coming. When the Son of man returns on the clouds of Heaven with His Saints, will there be anyone of Faith left? The way the conciliar church has evolved that might be a problem, a big problem. For they have lost the Faith of our fathers, the Faith of the saints, the Faith founded by Christ. Instead, this newChurch is something that was spawned from the spoils of the French Revolution and incubated in Freemasonry, Modernism and Marxism to hatch in the laboratory of Vatican II where they concocted this monster that contradicts the Lord. It is anathema and there is no kind way to say what will happen to those who have knowingly prevented the pruning of the bad tree, allowing the blight to spread to other branches as the leaves are wilting, blown into oblivion by false doctrines. Indeed they will pass away, for the only thing that will be left standing when Christ returns will be His Words. Father reminds us of Our Lord's very clear words of warning to those who would refuse the fullness and entirety of His Gospel for man does not have the right to reject or alter the Word of God for He has established for all time The Church, Teacher of Truth

With a new liturgical year upon us, Kevin Tierney tackles the nuances between the essence of the Traditional Mass Propers and those invented by the Novus Ordo handlers who have gutted so much from the sacramental theology of Holy Mother Church. Like mad scientists the church of Vatican II has constantly been tinkering and trying to improve something that never needed such. Yet, in order to placate man and the Protestant mentality, the New Order has compromised so much that oozes out in the Novus Ordo Propers as Kevin illustrates in his column comparing the Propers for the First Sunday of Advent in his column
Advent or Invent?
Gabriel's Clarion
 
Gabriel Garnica continues his series on the existing grotesque three-headed dragon which advances at the gate. In this issue he identifies the Second Dragon which has so manipulated itself with its ugly three-heads into the social fabric of everything from media to marketplace to masses. Gabriel exposes these three heads of the Second Dragon: Radical Feminism, Sodomite Forces, and Social Martyrs and warns us that it is this very beast which seeks to undermine the family unit and all the inherent values that God has deigned. The heat intensifies as this Second Dragon sears and scorches souls after the First Dragon has ignited the coals of rebellion. Gabriel explains in his third part of "The Dragon," titled,
The Second Dragon
Living our Faith
 We continue with our revised series on emphasizing the practical aspect of our Faith from a totally Traditional Catholic perspective. In this issue we focus on the great heresy of Protestantism and how today's conciliar church has compromised so much to placate man, rather than God. Those who are responsible will be held accountable for they have caused the scandal that has jeopardized countless souls especially in the 16th century and in these last 50 years. In this installment we focus on the 16th century and what resulted from it and why we must be in concert with Holy Mother Church to be aware of what Protestantism really is. That is why we provide this feature for we feel confident that these catechetical "points of enlightenment" will help more Catholics better understand their Faith, especially those who were not blessed with early formation of the Faith in the home and their parish school. Regardless of where any Catholic is in his or her journey toward salvation, he or she has to recognize that the Faith they were initiated into at the Sacrament of Baptism, making them truly members of the Mystical Body of Christ, is the most precious gift they have been given in life. If they truly want to live their Faith as it was taught in the Church of Peter to Pius XII, they must know the Faith and live it as Traditional Catholics. That is the only way to KEEP THE FAITH! Thus, in this issue we share the Church's The Church's Vigilance in the face of Protestantism

THE STRAIGHT STUFF
 Griff Ruby completes his two part essay on the topic of schism. In his second part he treats the Voice of Peter and how it has been silent for several decades and could very well continue mute until the Second Great Western Schism is healed. To combat this, Griff suggests a coming together of the various Traditional Catholic groups for united we stand, divided we fall. There is a vital need for a Traditional kind of 'ecumenism' - Trad-ecumenism, if you will, in bringing together those who uphold the Truths and Traditions of Holy Mother Church for a more charitable understanding of each group whether they believe John Paul II is a valid pope or not. For it is the liturgy and doctrine that unites us in one common goal: a stronger resistance to those who would usurp the Voice of Peter. Griff explains in The Essence of Schism Part TWO
Gabriel's Clarion
Gabriel Garnica continues his series on the existing grotesque three-headed dragon which advances at the gate. In this issue he gives us a sneak peak inside the enemy's camp, showing what the supporters of this beast are plotting. Gabriel exposes their agenda. One thing is for sure: the Dragon lurks in his cave, below the surface of visibility, plotting and planning, ready to pounce and spew forth even more incendiary idiocy in trying to corral souls for satan.
What does the future hold as the Dragon prepares to scorch more souls? Gabriel shudders to think, but he avers that the faithful should all call upon those two great dragon-slayers of the Church - St. George and, of course, St. Michael the Archangel so we can all ready our shields, steady our swords for the Church Militant. We must be at our posts, ready to defend souls for the greater honor and glory of God in this fight to the finish. Gabriel outlines the enemy's plan in his second part, titled
The Dragon's Next Move
Christ or chaos
   Dr. Thomas A. Droleskey provides a provacative piece on his site which we want to bring to your attention for it deals, as Tom notes, with the fact that it has never been the case in the history of the Church that heresies and errors have been defeated by ignoring them. The great saints of the past forcefully battled heresies and errors, understanding that nothing less than the salvation of souls and thus the right ordering of societies depended upon their doing so. It must be no different in our own day. Those who contend, for example, that we should just be "content" with the beauty of the Traditional Mass without pointing out the inherent harm of the Novus Ordo do not have the history of the Church on their side. He explains in his column The Faith Must Be Defended
 Dr. Droleskey's book G.I.R.M. Warfare has just been released this week. In it, he provides a paragraph by paragraph analysis of the 1997 General Instruction to the Roman Missal. This was first published originally between March of 2001 and June of 2003 in Christ or Chaos and also ran sequentially as "The Germs of G.I.R.M. here. It has now been revised somewhat and expanded to include articles relevant to the necessity of restoring the Traditional Latin Mass, G.I.R.M. Warfare is the perfect gift to give to your friends and relatives who think nothing is wrong with the Novus Ordo or that the "next document" from Rome will solve the problems of liturgical abuses that have their origin in the Novus Ordo Missae itself. Christmas is coming. Give them the ideal gift to bring them back home to the True Faith. To order G.I.R.M. Warfare, make out your check or money order to Chartres Communications for $24. per book ($21.00 for the book, $3.00 for shipping and handling) to: Chartres Communications, Post Office Box 188, Pine Island, New York 10969.
Living our Faith
 
We continue with our revised series on emphasizing the practical aspect of our Faith from a totally Traditional Catholic perspective. In this issue we focus on dangers to the unity of the Faith: Heresy and Schism and the safeguards Holy Mother Church takes to protect souls from these mortal wounds. We highlight the major heresies and schisms up to the Protestant Reformation in this issue so more can identify current heresies and schisms that are more prevalent today in the Vatican II church and which Griff Ruby covers in his current article. For these reasons we provide this feature for we feel confident that these catechetical "points of enlightenment" will help more Catholics better understand their Faith, especially those who were not blessed with early formation of the Faith in the home and their parish school. Regardless of where any Catholic is in his or her journey toward salvation, he or she has to recognize that the Faith they were initiated into at the Sacrament of Baptism, making them truly members of the Mystical Body of Christ, is the most precious gift they have been given in life. If they truly want to live their Faith as it was taught in the Church of Peter to Pius XII, they must know the Faith and live it as Traditional Catholics. That is the only way to KEEP THE FAITH! Thus, in this issue we share the Church's teachings on Vigilance Against Heresy and Schism
THE STRAIGHT STUFF
Griff Ruby steadies his arrows at the topic of schism and begins in this issue a two-part essay on what exactly schism is and who really is in schism. He details the logistics to show that it is truly misunderstood and that, more often than not - especially when emanating from those in support of the Vatican II church - the ones truly guilty of schism are those that separate themselves from any traditional Catholics whatsoever, traditional Catholics being who have upheld all of the authentic teachings of the Church, and therefore rejecting the alien modernist “gospel” of V-2 in obedience to St. Paul’s admonition in Galatians 1:8-10. While heresy and apostasy are sins against Faith, schism is a sin against Charity. Many bandy about the term in denigrating those who do not agree with them, thus, perhaps not even realizing that they are committing the sin of schism. Yet, where there is schism then at most only one side can be with Christ and the other against per Our Lord's words in Matthew 6: 24. Griff explains in The Essence of Schism Part ONE
Gabriel's Clarion
Gabriel Garnica sounds the clarion to signal all of the existing grotesque dragon which advances at the gate. This three-headed beast mocks the Holy Trinity and all that God holds sacred by slithering into civilization in the secular sector primarily because the ecclesial sector did not safeguard the drawbridge of infrangible doctrines and reinforce the ramparts against the savage beast's fiery projectiles of godlessness. As morals lapse, those seeking God's will grow thinner, yet they are the valiant knights who will dig in their heels to fight this vicious reptilian spirit of wickedness on high. Gabriel identifies the purpose of the different heads, all connected to the massive body of perdition seeking to sear souls in the fiery pit of hell. It is time to rise up and slay
The Dragon
Living our Faith
We continue with our revised series on emphasizing the practical aspect of our Faith from a totally Traditional Catholic perspective. In this issue we focus on the most important goal of each and every soul: their eternal salvation. Christ clearly delineated how one can be saved: Believe and be baptized. Likewise, He concluded without a doubt what would happen to those who did not: they would be condemned. Those are not our words, but the Son of God's! That is why we provide this feature for we feel confident that these catechetical "points of enlightenment" will help more Catholics better understand their Faith, especially those who were not blessed with early formation of the Faith in the home and their parish school. Regardless of where any Catholic is in his or her journey toward salvation, he or she has to recognize that the Faith they were initiated into at the Sacrament of Baptism, making them truly members of the Mystical Body of Christ, is the most precious gift they have been given in life. If they truly want to live their Faith as it was taught in the Church of Peter to Pius XII, they must know the Faith and live it as Traditional Catholics. That is the only way to KEEP THE FAITH! Thus, in this issue we share the Church's doctrines on The Church and Salvation
"Qui legit, intelligat"
In Father Louis Campbell's sermon for the Twenty-Fifth and Final Sunday After Pentecost, he highlights the focus of this last Sunday of the liturgical year - celebration of the Church Triumphant - our final goal. He points out how Holy Mother Church made sure that those recognized as worthy of saints, which assured to all the faithful that that particular person was indeed in Heaven, passed first through the fire of extreme testing to make absolutely sure of their certain holiness. To assure this, the Church had to have signs from Heaven to ascertain that, indeed, God had approved by providing at least two supernatural miracles. This meant that, at times, it might take decades, centuries, even a millennium before someone was elevated. Father emphasizes how exclusive a 'club' it truly was and should be. Yet, with the advent of the Modernists, all common sense and prudence was discarded as John Paul II began a marathon of trying to beatify and canonize as many as he could in order to please everyone, and in so doing weaken the prestige of the saints where today heroic virtue is relative. Without the necessary procedure of the devil's advocate, a canonization is null and void. So those praying to men like Jose Escriva, don't be too sure there will be any intercession. That is because, try as Modernist Rome has to obliterate the Canon Law of 1917, the True Church has always maintained that if the scrutiny of devil's advocate is not employed, the canonization is invalid. While the church of Vatican II has left countless souls in the dark, we can take consolation in the fact that God will not forget "The Lot of the Saints in Light"
Lex Orandi, Lex Credendi
Kevin Tierney compares the Feast dedicated to Christ as Sovereign King of all His subjects universally. Because Kevin did not cover the Traditional Feast on October 31, he has taken the Proper from that Sunday for the Solemnity of Christ the Supreme King and compares it to the last Sunday in Ordinary Time, which the newChurch has made Christ the King Sunday. Because there is no way to compare the Last Sunday After Pentecost with the Novus Ordo observation of the final Sunday before Advent, Kevin has chosen to match comparable texts in order to show how different they really are. Though there are a few texts that are identical such as the Traditional Epistle and the Second Reading in the NOM, the choice of Gospels is a dead give-away as to what the New Order does not want to admit or totally submit. In effect, one needs to look behind the mask of the vernacular jester to see what their real agenda is as Kevin has been exposing over these many weeks. In realizing this, we can more readily see why we have seen so many abuses in the New Order rite with little regard to the reverence and unchangeability of what was divinely ordained and set in stone with the Latin Mass of Tradition. This is obvious in the comparisons of the Traditional Proper for the Solemnity of the Supreme Kingship of Jesus Christ and the Novus Ordo Christ the King Sunday as Kevin illustrates in his column
The Vernacular Jester in Christ the King's Court
Living our Faith
We continue with our revised series on emphasizing the practical aspect of our Faith from a totally Traditional Catholic perspective. In this issue we focus on the indefectability of the Church just as Jesus assured in Matthew 28: 20, "Behold, I am with you all days, even unto the consummation of the world" God cannot deceive nor be deceived. Therefore we need to weigh what the conciliar popes and new church has conveyed with what Holy Mother Church always taught in order to see where the true Church truly is and that She is unchangeable. More proof the modern church cannot be the true Church for she has abdicated at least two of the four indelible Marks of the Church - One and Holy. That is why we provide this feature for we feel confident that these catechetical "points of enlightenment" will help more Catholics better understand their Faith, especially those who were not blessed with early formation of the Faith in the home and their parish school. Regardless of where any Catholic is in his or her journey toward salvation, he or she has to recognize that the Faith they were initiated into at the Sacrament of Baptism, making them truly members of the Mystical Body of Christ, is the most precious gift they have been given in life. If they truly want to live their Faith as it was taught in the Church of Peter to Pius XII, they must know the Faith and live it as Traditional Catholics. That is the only way to KEEP THE FAITH! Thus, in this issue we share the Church's doctrines on The Indefectability of the Church
Traditional Insights
  
Mario Derksen packs a powerful punch with his second installment on his two part exposé on what happened in the 1958 and 1963 conclaves that has thrown all of Christendom into a vortex of confusion and left so many without God's protection as he illustrates how the Church truly has been in eclipse, just as Our Lady warned at La Salette. Mario avers that, "Like the sun during a solar eclipse, the True Pope, and thus the True Church, is there and visible, but blocked from vision. Still, a faint outer corona can be seen for those who look hard enough. I believe that the entire Novus Ordo Church with its hierarchy and 'Popes' is blocking the vision of the True Church and the True Pope." He bases these findings on mounting evidence corroborated through secular, governmental, and ecclesial documentation, that the election of Cardinal Angelo Roncalli - and Giovanni Montini five years later and subsequent elections after that - were invalid, and that is exactly what the Freemasons were counting on to assure their men would not be protected by the Holy Ghost in the Modernists', Masons', and Communists' efforts to destroy the last remaining obstacle to their godless globalization agenda: The One True Church founded by Christ! Mario details in his column in part two of his two-part essay on Eclipse of the Church: 1958 and Beyond
Gabriel's Clarion
Gabriel Garnica takes note of the dark landscape modern advertising has taken in promising everything and delivering nothing. The gray, dark tones, almost void of color, seem to permeate television screens and magazine ads, selling hopes but never Hope. Marshall McCluhan once said the medium is the message, but the message today is lost in the sizzle, not in selling the steak, as much as what is at stake - the hot coals of hell where consumers are being softened to accept whatever the devil has to sell. The saddest part is that so many are buying it lock, stock and hellbent to sell their souls for a fleeting second of satisfaction that quickly dissipates as fast as a 15 second commercial. What is equally as sad is that the Church could have prevented this destruction had the Modernists not infiltrated her. He explains in his column for this issue Persuasion, Propaganda, Products and Politics = Perdition
Living our Faith
We continue with our revised series on emphasizing the practical aspect of our Faith from a totally Traditional Catholic perspective. In this issue we focus on the infallibility of the Church just as Jesus assured in John 14, "I will ask the Father and He will give you another Advocate to dwell with you forever…But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your mind whatever I have said to you." God cannot deceive nor be deceived. Therefore we need to weigh what the conciliar popes and new church has conveyed with what Holy Mother Church always taught in order to see where the true Church truly is. That is why we provide this feature for we feel confident that these catechetical "points of enlightenment" will help more Catholics better understand their Faith, especially those who were not blessed with early formation of the Faith in the home and their parish school.

Thus, in this issue we share the Church's doctrines on The Infallibility of the Church
Gabriel's Clarion
 
In Gabriel Garnica's column for this issue, he exposes the total hypocrisy of Hollywood and the sodomite agenda both in the media, medical and clergy. With the release of the film Kinsey praising infamous pedophile propagandist Alfred Kinsey, played by ex-Catholic Liam Neeson, the hypocrisy is so thick that even satan might blush at the boldness of the Hollywood elites and progressives in pushing this trash movie and the blatant lies that purposely seek to cover up who Kinsey was - a child of lucifer whose work has led billions to the depths of eternal damnation! While the film is subtitled, "Sex, The Measure of All Things," all would be wise to heed what Our Lady imparted to the visionaries at Fatima: more souls are in hell for the sins of the flesh than any other sin!" Gabriel reveals what is truly behind the mask in his column "And Lead Us Not Into Temptation...or Hypocrisy"
Living our Faith
We continue with our revised series on emphasizing the practical aspect of our Faith from a totally Traditional Catholic perspective. In this issue we provide the foundation - the Cornerstone of the Church - Christ Himself who is the Founder of the only One True Church outside of which there is No Salvation (The thrice-defined Dogma - Extra Ecclesiam Nullam Salus). Compare these clear and certain teachings with what the conciliar church has perpetrated in watering down the Faith so insidiously over the past 40 years that it is no longer recognizable as Catholic. That is why we provide this feature for we feel confident that these catechetical "points of enlightenment" will help more Catholics better understand their Faith, especially those who were not blessed with early formation of the Faith in the home and their parish school.

Christ or chaos
   The announcement of President Bush's appointment of White House Counsel Judge Alberto Gonzales as Attorney General proves sadly that Dr. Thomas A. Droleskey was right on in his prognostication about this staunch pro-abort Latino. Tom warned in an article on January 15, 2001 in his Christ or chaos that Bush would eventually elevate Gonzales and for pro-lifers not to be fooled by the President's rhetoric. In the aftermath of this most recent election when the strong Christian vote for morality swung the election for Bush, this wasn't what most of those voters had expected. Dr. Droleskey could say today, "I told you so" for the most recent action by Bush is just more of the ol' shiftiness - whether it comes from Washington or modern Rome, it's still skimble-skamble and wrong! Tom's words from over three years ago have come back to haunt us all as you'll see in his retro column
Sandra Day O'Connor, Part Deux
"Qui legit, intelligat"
In Father Louis Campbell's sermon for the Twenty-Fourth Sunday After Pentecost, he compares what Christ commanded to what is being peddled by the Vatican II church today, a direct contradiction to Our Lord's charge as well as Pope Pius IX's assertive words that we must do all in our power to "rescue them from the darkness of the errors into which they have unhappily fallen and strive to bring them back to Catholic truth." He identifies the cavalier attitude of the newChurch in placating pagan religions while selling out the true Faith. The Faith of the hierarchy of the modern church cannot seem to comprehend the parables Christ spoke which are "hidden from the foundation of the world," and consequently, the faith of the modern church is so weak that it has caved to the world, the flesh and the devil by approving the non-Catholics in their error, a grave heresy that has and will continue to deny countless souls from attaining everlasting life. Father points out the bad fruits of the false religion of Vatican II and how fruitless are their works in contrast to Paul's words in Colossians 1: 10 "Fruitful in Every Good Work"
Gabriel's Clarion
 
In Gabriel Garnica's column for this issue, he rails at those who clamor for social justice, yet justify the killing of the unborn. Gabriel points out clearly that without the ultimate social justice morality, justice is blind. He equates the plight of the slaves in earlier times and sees no difference except this slavery is much, much worse for the victim has no way to defend himself. Indeed a much more treacherous slavery has returned with a vengeance. Gabriel shows that there is no social justice if we continue to allow such a vile injustice as abortion to rule the land! He explains in his column Pro-Life: The Ultimate Social Justice Morality
Lex Orandi, Lex Credendi
We continue with the second part of a multi-part essay on the charismatic movement in the modern church. While Kevin Tierney has been bringing you this series most Sundays in comparing the Propers of the Mass of the Traditional Latin Mass and the Novus Ordo, the title of this feature "Lex Orandi, Lex Credendi" also extends to ways in which one prays determining how one believes. The charismatic movement, which John Paul II is on record as boasting as the "greatest movement in Church history" is, like the rest of the conciliar church, heading for oblivion. Kevin points out in the second part how the wisdom and guidance offered by the holy Doctor of the Church St. John of the Cross contradicts the over-eager charismatic agenda today and invites satan right in the front door. He continues to expose the pitfalls in his treatise with part two on

The Sanity of Sanctity
We continue our recent tradition of bringing you the Litany of Saints for the Saints and Feasts of November, the original concept submitted by Jacob Michael in September. Need some impetus to pray for the Holy Souls in Purgatory? What we provide is a litany to all of the saints whose feast days are celebrated in the month of November. Many of these saints are little-known and often are not, for that reason, invoked in our prayers. Just as almost all in Purgatory are forsaken today by the post-conciliar church. If you add this short litany to your daily Rosary, you will have the benefit of invoking the prayers of some of these lesser-known saints for November. Litany of the November Saints

In This Issue:
Editor's Note: Thanks to the kind permission of Mary, Immaculate Queen Press, we are reproducing below for each day in November the respective prayers for the holy souls in Purgatory. They carry an Imprimatur from Patrick Cardinal Hayes of New York. You can order the booklets for .50 each from Mary Immaculate Queen Center, 8504 N. St. Michael's Road, Spokane, WA 99217-9333. Below are for the prayers for the ninth through thirteenth day of November. 
Editor's Note: On this Feast of Saint Andrew the Apostle one may begin a special prayer to obtain favors if it is in alignment with God's will. It is believed that whoever recites the following prayer with a pious heart
15 times a day from November 30th - the Feast of St. Andrew -
until Christmas Day, will obtain what the person asked. The prayer carries an Imprimatur from Archbishop Michael Augustine of New York City during the Pontificate of Pope Leo XIII on February 6, 1897. Since one should say this short prayer 15 times a day, it is recommended to memorize it below so you can say it wherever you are. 
Beginning November 29 is the Novena in preparation for the Double of the First Class Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception. This year is even more special considering it is the 150th Anniversary of proclamation of the Dogma of the Immaculate Conception by Pope Pius IX on December 8, 1854. The Immaculate Conception is special to Americans for the USA is dedicated to this special dogma. See
