Crisis in the Catholic Church

God's inscrutable providence allowed

it

that we are witnesses

of an unprecedented crisis of the

church.

A hostile takeover within

the strategic

administrative structure

of the Catholic Church,

which is marked

by the spread of not only poisonous

doctrinal ambiguities,

but even by brazen heresies in the

ranks

of the high clergy:

a phenomenon which

in some cases comes close to

apostasy even.

Our Lord and His holy apostles used

and understood the world,

world, the word world

as human society

or culture

and their values organized

independently of God

and hostile to Christ, the incarnate God.

This is the world.

And so,

in His high priestly prayer,

our Lord said to His disciples and hence

to His church

that

His church is not of the world,

even as He Himself is not of it.

And St. James

left to the church for all times this admonition:

"The friendship of this world is

the enemy of God.

Whatsoever therefore will be a friend

of this world becomes an enemy of

God."

James four:four.
