Is the Church Going
the Way of the King of France?
It was in June 1689, when the great Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque received this incredible message from the Lord. Before Jesus’ Words, St. Margaret Mary wrote,
the palaces of princes and kings. He wants to be honored there as much
as He was outraged, contemned, and humiliated in His Passion;
and to receive as much pleasure at seeing the great ones of the Earth
abased and humiliated before Him as He felt bitterness at seeing Himself
spurned at their feet. Here are the words I heard with regard to our king [Louis XIV]:
‘Make known to the eldest son of My Sacred Heart that,
as his temporal birth was obtained by devotion to My Holy Infancy,
so will he obtain his birth into grace and eternal glory
by consecrating himself to My adorable Heart. It wants to triumph
over his and, through him, over the hearts of the great ones of the Earth.
It wants to Reign in his palace, be painted on his standards, and engraved
on his arms, so that they may be victorious over all his enemies.
It wants to bring low these proud and stubborn heads and make him
triumphant over all the enemies of holy Church.’ ”
One hundred years after the king failed to heed this message, his grandson, Louis XVI, lost the throne of France in the masonic revolution.
The consequences for not taking seriously the requests of the Lord are severe.
In order to ensure there would never be someone to make a claim to the throne of France again, Louis XVI and his wife, the much-maligned Marie Antoinette, and their child Louis XVII, fell victims to the horrific guillotine.
Interestingly, for our modern society, which no longer contemplates the splendor of royalty living in the luxury of a palace like Versailles, it was not Louis XIV’s grandeur that the King of Kings objected to; it was the fact that Louis did not share the honor of it with the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
In June 1929, a similar event will take place. Only this time it will not be Jesus’ honor that was at stake — although as the Son of Mary it ultimately is — but it will be the honor of His Mother as the Queen of the Church that was on the line. Mary, through the same type of humble visionary as St. Margaret Mary was to Jesus, instructed Sister Lucia, the seer of Fatima, that the time had come for the pope and the bishops to consecrate the nation of Russia to Her Immaculate Heart.
The hierarchy of the Church failed to heed the request.
On August 19, 1931, Sister Lucy stated that the Lord Jesus appeared to her and made this complaint: “Make it know to My ministers, seeing that they follow the example of the king of France in delaying the execution of My demand, they will also have to follow him into misfortune.”
While he was in jail, Louis XVI, the grandson of Louis XIV who originally received the demand from Jesus to place the Image of the Lord’s Sacred Heart on all of France’s Coat of Arms, tried desperately to conform to God’s desire. He consecrated the nation of France to the Sacred Heart while in prison.
But it was too late. And it was proverbially too little as there was no public pomp and ceremony to attend the consecration.
The same is true of Mary’s request to consecrate Russia to Her Immaculate Heart.
Many people can debate this issue, but Mary has made it clear that it was not done according to Heaven’s desires. She made this clear in Her message to Father Stefano Gobbi. Mary has stated that Her messages to Father Gobbi are the culmination of Her Fatima revelations.
Mary told Father Gobbi in regard to the consecration of Russia — despite the fact that so many try to claim Pope John Paul II accomplished this act in 1984 — that it was not accepted by Heaven. The consecration of the world was, but since John Paul did not mention Russia specifically by name — at the request of a cardinal no less (perhaps, another ecclesiastical mason?!) — Mary cannot, as a result of this failure, grant the world the full peace She promised at Fatima if Her requests had been completely adhered to.
This leaves us with two more important points.
The first is that the world was brilliantly consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus by Pope Leo XIII in 1899.
The second is that Pope John Paul II repeated this consecration to the Sacred Heart in 1999.
So where does this leave us today?
As we said, it is a simple lesson.
The Church has not pleased its Savior and King, just as the king of France did not please his Savior and King.
The Church has failed to correct its error and until today continues to ignore the “execution” of Jesus’ “demand” through His Mother’s command to consecrate Russia to Her Immaculate Heart in a public ceremony with ALL THE BISHOPS OF THE CHURCH partaking in a solemn act of prayer.
In this lesson, therefore, what can we expect?
Does the Lord Jesus use idle words or paper threats?
Is Sister Lucy a false visionary?
Or can we — on the basis of actual history that has been recorded by secular historians — come to the obvious conclusion that Jesus does not threaten idly nor is He a “paper tiger.”
And Sister Lucia is — as the Church has said itself — an authentic visionary who received actual messages from Jesus and Mary, just as St. Margaret Mary did.
Where, then, are we today?
As we look around, are we not EXACTLY where the Lord Jesus prophesied to Sister Lucy? Just as He allowed France to come to ruin and its famous royal lineage — the blood of the great St. Louis — to come to naught, what is Jesus doing with His “ministers”? Are they not following the “misfortune” of the royal family of France? It took 100 years historically for the ruin of the Bourbons.
It is taking less time for the ruin of the Catholic hierarchy.
We only need look around us to see the Truth of this.
Yes, of course, there are still incredibly holy and great bishops and priests — but they truly are in the minority!
And those who seem to have control of the Church are those who seem to have no control over their own moral judgment. The last thing these “newsmakers” are is an example to the world of the Truths of Catholicism.
Are we worried? Do we advocate, like Martin Luther did, a break from the Church? In both cases, we issue a strong “no!”
We are not worried, for the Lord Jesus is in charge — and He is the One behind exposing those who fail to “execute” His “demands.” Jesus is cleaning house. And there is NO other Church other than the one the Lord Himself founded on the Rock of Peter almost two millennia ago.
But while the “gates of hell” will not prevail against the Church, the Judgment of God is upon her.
A Judgment against a hierarchy that amused itself with removing our Lord from the Center of His Altar and to a room at the side of the Sanctuary! A Judgment against a hierarchy that allowed “liturgical dancers” to mount the Holy Steps to the Altar itself in a pagan show of immodesty. A hierarchy, like those who caused the “reformation” with their corruption in the Middle Ages, that is bringing disrepute on the dogmas of Jesus and Mary. A hierarchy that hides that which is evil — not only in the sight of God, but in the sight of man (yes, Virginia, this is a direct reference to the pedophile scandal). A hierarchy that gave us “Renew,” while, in reality, it was destroying the true Mass.
A hierarchy that must be cleansed as it falls for the Lord to bring His Church back into His good graces.
And we wish to end this article with the Good News.
The Good News, as we stated, that Pope Leo XIII consecrated the world to the Sacred Heart of Jesus more than a century ago. An act that has been — but should not be — forgotten. The Good News that Pope John Paul II, in anticipation of the Great Jubilee Year of Divine Mercy, re-consecrated the world again just four years ago this month — a critical moment in the Great Spiritual Battle.
The effects of these consecrations cannot be weighed lightly and we will see the full fruit of them in but a short period of time.
For it was Pope Leo XIII who received, like Margaret Mary and Lucy, incredible visions and messages from the Lord.
After celebrating Mass on October 13, 1884, Pope Leo collapsed and went into a state wherein God showed the future battle for the Church of Christ the King between Jesus and the evil one. As a result, Pope Leo composed what is known today as the St. Michael prayer. A prayer that the current hierarchy of the Church has removed and deemed as “unnecessary.”
That battle that Leo XIII envisioned is raging today. It is, we believe, the “final conflict.” The evidence is all around us.
With Leo XIII’s 20th-century successor consecrating the world to Jesus’ Sacred Heart in the final moments of the 2nd Millennium, we must comprehend that this act is Divinely Inspired to put a bookend on this battle between Jesus and the evil one for the Church. A battle that was first prophesied by Leo XIII and a battle that is ultimately being waged in the pontificate of John Paul II.
It is a battle in which the ultimate victory is not in doubt.
Unlike the king of France, our King cannot be defeated.
His Throne cannot be taken from Him.
His Body has Risen to die no more.
We, as believers, however, can let this battle continue on for decades.
Or, believe it or not, we can help decisively to end this battle.
It is within our power. It is within our abilities. The Lord is looking for those to assist Him in His ultimate victory. He doesn’t need us; but He wants us!
How can we accomplish this?
Let us go forth and, in this month dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, use as our weapon the consecration prayer approved by Pope Pius XI for the Feast of Christ the King.
Let us offer it at every Mass we attend, along with the St. Michael prayer; before every school our children attend; before every public building we are in contact with; before every member of the clergy; before every government official; before every person we meet; before every family member; before every living creature; and, most importantly, before the Heavenly Court.
We need not do this in an outrageous public manner.
The Lord is not requiring it of us as He did the king of France or the bishops of His Church.
We can do this quietly, lovingly, prayerfully, and in deep worship of our God. And, in this way, be as powerful as the Acts of Consecration accomplished publicly by our great pontiffs.
Will our personal acts of consecration bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart on Earth as it is in Heaven?
Is there anyone who thinks that by doing this consecration it will delay the Reign?
Or will it bring it about that much sooner?
The answer is obvious.
We need, as true believers in Jesus, to stop thinking about the next election; the next pope; the next president; the next world leader.
We need to invoke the Reign — His Reign — through this consecration to the only One who has the Right to rule over, not only His Church, but all the nations of the world.
As the Church continues to follow the king of France into “misfortune,” we need to not concern ourselves with the next puff of white smoke upon the death of John Paul and the election of a new pontiff.
We need to concern ourselves with Him.
And His demands.
We need to ensure we are not “delaying” the Coming of Christ the King.
We need to make sure — at this critical moment in time after two consecrations of the world to His Sacred Heart — we, as those who truly believe in Christ the King, are clamoring for His Return!
His Kingship!
Not another deputy!
We need to ensure we are counted by Him, when He separates the sheep from the goats, as among those who, through our prayers and the consecration of those around us, invoked and helped bring about His Reign of His Sacred Heart!
We need to invite Jesus to enter “with pomp and splendor into the palaces” of our own personal hearts and homes.
For it is in this invitation one finds a simple lesson — a simple lesson that will separate us from the “misfortunes” of the king of France and the “ministers” of His Church.
A lesson in which we, as believers, want to ensure not only which side we want to be on, but which side the Lord Jesus in His Sacred Heart perceives us to be on!
