This is an excellent sermon, by Fr. Hewko, given to the boys on the Florida pilgrimage.

Quote:If anyone wants to know where I stand, it is with Abp. Marcel Lefebvre. He surpassed the best theologians of his time and he, by far, surpasses all the lay theologians of the internet! That is where I stand, period! He said these New Rites of Pope Paul VI were doubtful, period! He spoke extensively on this, without necessarily falling into sedevacantism. There is an undefinable darkness about this evil which Sacred Scripture calls the "mystery of iniquity", it is, without a doubt, partly what Our Lady of Fatima spoke of in Her Third Secret that was supposed to be revealed in 1960, that is why Abp. Lefebvre said he sees the necessity to conditionally reconfirm and reordain those coming from the New Rite. There is great wisdom in his position, "Neither Modernist nor Schismatic (or sedevacantist)!"

Thank you to Erich who posted these perceptive words in the comment section below the video:  "It seems to me that man, by rejecting Christ as King, has created hell on earth"

Quote:...Him is such a horrible and mad crime as to be scarcely credible.  For He is the origin and source of all good and just as mankind could not be freed from slavery but by the sacrifice of Christ, so neither can it be preserved but by His power”. (same Enclyclical Letter, Tametsi, 1900).  When a people which has grasped the truth of the Divine Plan turns against our Lord, by leaving Him out of account and by passing over in silence the rights of the Head of the Mystical Body, it commits apostasy and initiates the most fightful disorder.  Having rejected the dependence of mankind on the Sacred Humanity of Jesus, man must necessarily put himself and his own natural life in the place of God.  Now it is precisely in this that Rationalism consists and this is exactly what we find in the “Declaration of the Right of Man” of 1789.  We behold, on the one hand, social apostasy and the rejection of our Lord Jesus Christ, on the other, the substitution of man for God or the worship of humanity. (1)

The Preamble to this infamous document runs as follows: “The representatives of The Declaration of the Rights of Man and of 1791 and of 1793, made explicit certain points implicitly contained in that of 1789.

...the French people met together in a national assemble, considering that the ignorance, forgetfulness or contempt of the rights of man are the sole causes of public misfortunes and of the corruption of governments, have decided to set forth, in a solemn Delcaration, the natural, inalienable and sacred rights of man, so that this Declaration, being ever before the eyes of all the membrs of society, may unceasingly remind them of their rights and duties….

“Consequently, the National Assembly recognises and declares, in the presence and under the auspices of the Supremem Being, the following rights of man and the citizen.

“Art. I.  Men are born free and equal in rights and continue so. Social distinction can be founded only on public utility….

“Art III. The source of all sovereignty resides essentially in the nation. No society,no individual, can exercise an authority which does not emanate from it expressly.

“Art IV. Liberty is the power of doing what we will, so long as it does not injure another: The only limits of each man’s natural rights are such as secure the same rights to others; these limits are determinable only by law.

“Art. VI. The law is the Expression of the general will……..

“Art X. No one can be molested for his opinion, even for his religious opinions, provided their manifestation does not trouble the public order established by law.

“Art XI.  The free communication of thoughts and opinions is one of the most precious of the rights of man; therefore every citizen is allowed freedom of speech, of writing, and of printing, but will have to answer for any abuse of that liberty in cases determined by law.”

Only a few of the articles of the Declaration are quoted.  They will, however, be quite sufficient to illustrate the Rousseauist-Masonic doctrine of the immanent divinity of man which underlies the whole document.  Of course there is a certain vagueness about some of the formulae.  This is a well-known Masonic trick to deceive the unwary. 

For example, the uninitiated interpret the first article as follows: Men are free, that is, they can do what the law does not forbid:  they may even profess the religion which pleases the; men are equal in rights, that is, all are equal before the law, all are eligible for public offices, all are subject to public duties, to taxes, etc.  But the real meaning, the one behind which is the whole driving force of masonry and secret societies generally, is that each man in the sate of nature, to which we must return to be happy, is free and independent like God.   All are equally God. Man is born free; that is, unrestrained license is an absolute exigency of human nature; any kind of submission to any man is contrary to nature. As all are equally God, nature demands tht the strictest equality should be realised amongst men, and that, therefore, everyone should have a vote. Accordingly, in a State correctly formed, an absolute social equality should counterbalance natural inequalities. Needless to say the logical consequence is Communism. For if all men are equal, why are some rich and others poor? The right of private property is the greatest cause of social inequality, so it must be abolished.Other distinctions must disappear as well. If all men are equal, the classifications of superiors and inferiors, parents and children, husbands and wives must be eliminated.

Quote:“While deaths in care homes of people who take the vaccine are described as normal and nothing to do with the vaccine, some would suggest that you could make the exact same argument about deaths of those with multiple comorbidities in care homes that were put down to COVID. Many have and have been shouted down for doing so,” he said.

Quote:“That means there is the possibility — and it is statistically very probable — that people, in connection with the vaccination, will die. Then it will be extremely important to determine whether the cause of death was the vaccine or another pre-existing disease,” he said. “This is precisely why we need vaccination centers with centralized data collection for tracking side effects,” he added.

Quote:“Yes, because that’s going to be really important for people to have for travel purposes, perhaps for work purposes, for going to theatres or cinemas or any other places where people will be in closer physical contact.”

Quote:“What we can do is to say sometimes for access, or ease, in getting into certain settings, if you don’t have vaccination then you’re not allowed into that setting without other protection materials,” he said.

"I saw the fatal consequences of this counterfeit church; I saw it increase; I saw heretics of all kinds flocking to the city. I saw the ever-increasing tepidity of the clergy, the circle of darkness ever widening. And now the vision became more extended. I saw in all places Catholics oppressed, annoyed, restricted, and deprived of liberty, churches were closed and great misery prevailed everywhere with war and bloodshed. I saw rude ignorant people offering violent resistance. But this state of things lasted not long."
