COGwriter<\/a><\/p>\n

A reader tipped me off to the following which is scheduled to appear in the upcoming July 15, 2021 edition of The Remnant Newspaper<\/em> (a Roman Catholic source) and was written by a Roman Catholic priest referring to himself as Celatus:<\/p>\n

Archbishop Vigan\u00f2 and the Spirit of Elijah<\/h2>\n

ONE OF THE truly great figures of the Old Testament period was the prophet Elijah; so great, in fact, that he was preserved from death and will reappear at the end of time to prepare the faithful for the Day of the Lord. Among other things, this prophet denounced the wicked leader of Israel, King Ahab, for which reason he had to flee into hiding for his life and for the sake of continuing his divine ministry. Prior to his departure from earth on a heavenly chariot, he left a double portion of his spirit to his successor, Elisha.<\/p>\n

The spirit of Elijah has reappeared once more on the face of the earth, in the person of Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigan\u00f2, now nearly three millennia after the original Prophet was whisked away into the heavens. Three years ago, the Archbishop went public regarding unprecedented moral and ecclesiastical corruption within the institutional Catholic Church at the highest levels of the hierarchy, to include Jorge Bergoglio.<\/p>\n

As for The Last Word, we got down on our knees and thanked God that finally, someone of the stature of Archbishop Vigan\u00f2 had gone public with what we have known for decades: the institutional Church has been infiltrated and corrupted by homosexual predators and their perverted protectors.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Among other revelations, the Archbishop related in great detail a conversation that he had with Francis of Rome early in his reign, regarding the now infamous Mister Theodore McCarrick. Archbishop Vigan\u00f2 informed Francis that McCarrick had been sidelined by Pope Benedict XVI, based upon credible evidence that he was a serial homosexual predator upon seminarians and young priests. Shortly after hearing this from the Nuncio, Bergoglio reinstated McCarrick and restored him to public ministry and administration. We now know that McCarrick abused young boys as well, in his forty-year span of perverted sex abuse. …<\/p>\n

It was fifty years ago, as a minor seminarian, that I became personally aware of this infiltration. How bad was it? One classmate was drugged and sodomized as a teen seminarian; other classmates were similarly abused. Later, when I was in major seminary, all but one of my classmates were homosexual\u201480 percent. The reality was that many\u2014maybe a majority\u2014of priests and prelates were homosexuals, promoting and protecting each other. But very few believed us about this scandal, until Archbishop Vigan\u00f2 went public. …<\/p>\n

But as Elijah returned like a roaring lion from the wilderness, so too the Archbishop continues to roar, from the wilderness of his exile. …<\/p>\n

In addition to showing himself a faithful son of the Church and a friend of our nation, Archbishop Vigan\u00f2 has extended his solicitude as broadly as the fallen world, in his prophetic warnings that the manifestly evil, unprecedented events of the present are contributing to the rise of the Anti-Christ in the near future.<\/p>\n

Certainly, at the top of the list of the evils perpetrated by the Globalist Children of Darkness has been the massive fraud related to a virus. This virus\u2014probably man-made as a tool for Globalists\u2014has been used as a rationale for unprecedented evil worldwide. …<\/p>\n

If the final Day of the Lord is approaching, we will know for certain with the return of the great Prophet. Meanwhile, it is clear that the spirit of Elijah is even now at work, in the person of Archbishop Vigan\u00f2. posted 07\/03\/21, accessed 07\/06\/21 https:\/\/remnantnewspaper.com\/web\/index.php\/articles\/item\/5453-the-spirit-of-elijah<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yes, as reported here before (see \u2018Vatican Expels Former US Cardinal McCarrick\u2019 and \u2018Salacious new book says homosexuality is rampant at the Vatican\u2019<\/a>), we have long known that the Roman Catholic clergy was infested with homosexuals. The 80% figure was also reported by others (see \u2018Vatican Expels Former US Cardinal McCarrick\u2019 and \u2018Salacious new book says homosexuality is rampant at the Vatican\u2019<\/a>).<\/p>\n

We have reported about Roman Catholic Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigan\u00f2 here before as he has blasted some of the Vatican’s moves towards globalism and Freemasonry (see <\/span>LSN: Vigan\u00f2 on Vatican \u2018health\u2019 conference with Fauci: Holy See is \u2018making itself the servant of the New World Order\u2019<\/a> and <\/span>Norway advised to stop COVID-19 vaccine for the elderly; Archbishop Vigan\u00f2 decries Pope Francis\u2019 totalitarian endorsement<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

But, no, Carlo Maria Vigan\u00f2\u00a0 has not come in the spirit and power of Elijah (see also The Elijah Heresies<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

Notice something from Jesus in the New Testament related to an Elijah prophecy:<\/p>\n

11 Jesus answered and said to them, “Indeed, Elijah is coming first and will restore all things. …” (Matthew 17:1-11).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In Matthew 17:11, the term translated \u201cwill restore\u201d is the Greek term apokathistemi<\/strong> which means \u201cto reconstitute\u201d or \u201crestore (again)\u201d (Biblesoft’s New Exhaustive Strong’s Numbers and Concordance with Expanded Greek-Hebrew Dictionary. Copyright (c) 1994, Biblesoft and International Bible Translators, Inc.) and is preceded by the Greek term men<\/strong> which means \u201ctruly\u201d in the asseverative sense.<\/p>\n

Carlo Maria Vigan\u00f2<\/span>, while right for condemning Vatican homosexuality and globalism, has NOT tried to restore original Christianity.<\/p>\n

The Remnant Newspaper<\/em> says the following about itself:<\/p>\n

\n

The Remnant<\/span> strives to adhere to Catholic teaching in every aspect of its journalism. There has been great upheaval and revolution within the Catholic Church over the past five decades — not unlike that encountered in the fourth century by St. Athanasius, called the Arian Heresy\u00a0 …<\/p>\n

The Remnant sees itself as one of the many voices crying out against abusive liturgical and doctrinal aberrations such as Clown Masses, women priests, Communion in the hand, erroneous Theology, abusive and sacrilegious liturgical innovations, the abandonment of preaching the Four Last Things, the denial of sin and hell, the rise of phony ecumenism (which states that there is little or no difference between Catholicism and Protestantism, or between Catholicism and Mohammedanism or any other monotheistic religion, and that all religions are good), the annulment abuse, the abuse of NFP, etc. …<\/p>\n

We fight that which is novel and goes against the traditional Catholic liturgies and infallible teachings of the past. accessed 07\/06\/21 https:\/\/remnantnewspaper.com\/web\/index.php\/more\/about<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Despite the above claims, the reality is that neither The Remnant<\/em> nor Carlo Maria Vigan\u00f2<\/span> seem to understand what the original catholic Christian church taught on areas such as the liturgy, Godhead, salvation, etc.<\/p>\n

However, we have a highly referenced free online book that does.<\/p>\n

\n

It is titled Beliefs of the Original Catholic Church<\/a>.<\/p>\n
