Please join me in praying for Tucker Carlson , I am very concerned for his personal safety. Poor man. For his personal protection and for that of his family. He is very brave.
I wonder if he knows? he is very smart, but I wonder? They have killed many, many people for far, far less than what he is doing.
Yes, but allowing Tucker to continue creates the impression of freedom. Meanwhile, they'll continue injecting more vaccines into us. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me, a sinner.
Who knows what they'll get up to next? Evil has driven them all insane. They even look nuts, the lot of them.
https://x.com/TuckerCarlson/status/1929583963216961612 Great interview between Tucker Carlson and Bishop Barron. Well worth watching.
About an hour into the interview Bishop Barron mentioned how Pope Leo the 13th had a mystical experience the led him to believe the 20th century would belong to the devil. When Tucker pressed for more details, he avoided giving them. Tucker asked him yet again for the details of the mystical experience, but the bishop kept the story as generic as possible. For some reason he avoided fully sharing the well-known account of how the pope overheard the devil saying he could destroy the Church and how Jesus said He'd give him a hundred years to try. Strange. I would have let it go, but even stranger, when Tucker asked him to share the words of the St. Michael prayer the pope came up with after the mystical experience, Bishop Barron said a few lines of the prayer, mumbled something to the akin that he didn't know the rest of the words, and diverted to another topic. A bishop who can quote lines of philosophers and doctors of the church word-for-word, who can quote much longer prayers in Latin no less, yet he doesn't know all of the words of the St. Michael prayer? Something seems very off here.
Bishop Barron names the reason in the video IMO. He grew up believing the devil wasn't real, then moved onto the world of high clergy and academia. Where everything is related to the natural world and the super natural isn't real. He is only beginning to give merit to some of the super natural experience in the church.
I am unsure where Bishop Baron stands regarding devotions and spiritual warfare. But every clergy member should memorize the St. Michael prayer! Even that is a shortened version! Certainly he has promoted the Liturgy of the Hours with his "monthly office" booklets. While it disappoints me, the fact is is I know of few clergy that do delve into spiritual warfare. A website like ours is uncommon regarding that and other certain issues.
I had some hope that the current Pope—who honored Leo XIII by choosing his name—would reinstate the Prayer to Saint Michael at the end of Masses. He has begun his ministry in a very Christocentric way, which could be strengthened by a firm spiritual combativeness. This would highlight the fact that we do not have human strength to overcome sin, but that Christ is the one who wins the spiritual battle for us—Christ who was tempted in the desert, in Gethsemane, and in His sorrowful Passion, and who overcame all of Satan’s assaults. Recognizing Christ as the leader at the forefront of our battle is essential to understanding the role of angels and saints as a great heavenly militia fighting on our behalf, playing an active role—though invisible to our eyes—in the spiritual battle we face each day.
O Glorious Archangel St. Michael, Prince of the heavenly host, be our defense in the terrible warfare which we carry on against principalities and powers, against the rulers of this world of darkness, and spirits of evil. Come to the aid of man, whom God created immortal, made in His own image and likeness, and redeemed at a great price from the tyranny of the devil. Fight this day the battle of the Lord, together with the holy angels, as already thou hast fought the leader of the proud angels, Lucifer, and his apostate host, who were powerless to resist Thee, nor was there place for them any longer in heaven. That cruel, that ancient serpent, who is called the devil or Satan, who seduces the whole world, was cast into the abyss with his angels. Behold, this primeval enemy and slayer of men has taken courage. Transformed into an angel of light, he wanders about with all the multitude of wicked spirits, invading the earth in order to blot out the name of God and of His Christ, to seize upon, slay and cast into eternal perdition souls destined for the crown of eternal glory. This wicked dragon pours out, as a most impure flood, the venom of his malice on men; his depraved mind, corrupt heart, his spirit of lying, impiety, blasphemy, his pestilential breath of impurity and of every vice and iniquity. These most crafty enemies have filled and inebriated with gall and bitterness the Church, the Spouse of the Immaculate Lamb, and have laid impious hands on her most sacred possessions. In the Holy Place itself, where has been set up the See of the most holy Peter and the Chair of Truth for the light of the world, they have raised the throne of their abominable impiety, with the iniquitous design that when the Pastor has been struck, the sheep may be scattered. Arise then, O invincible Prince, bring help against the attacks of the lost spirits to the people of God, and give them the victory. They venerate Thee as their protector and patron; in Thee Holy Church glories as her defense against the malicious power of hell; to Thee has God entrusted the souls of men to be established in heavenly beatitude. Oh, pray to the God of peace that He may put Satan under our feet, so far conquered that he may no longer be able to hold men in captivity and harm the Church. Offer our prayers in the sight of the Most High, so that they may quickly conciliate the mercies of the Lord; and beating down the dragon, the ancient serpent who is the devil and Satan, do Thou again make him captive in the abyss, that he may no longer seduce the nations. Amen. Behold the Cross of the Lord; be scattered, hostile powers. The Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered, the root of David. Let Thy mercies be upon us, O Lord! As we have hoped in Thee. O Lord, hear my prayer. And let my cry come unto Thee Let us pray: God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we call upon Thy holy name, and we humbly implore Thy clemency, that by the intercession of Mary, ever Virgin Immaculate and our Mother, and of the glorious Archangel St. Michael, Thou wouldst deign to help us against Satan and all other unclean spirits, who wander about the world for the injury of the human race and the ruin of souls. Amen.
I watched that video yesterday and was about to post a link to it when I saw this threat. I thought the Bishop gave a great interview. He covered the basics and left enough hints for people to search out the rest. With the help of the Holy Spirit, each of them will find the information they need to guide them home to the Church. Bishop Barron likely prays the long St. Michael prayer in Mario's post. Maybe he didn't want to take aa chance on straying into the words of the long version and confusing everyone. Also, more than likely the majority of people who watch that video won't be Catholic and overloading them with information could be counter protective. Reading the comments beneath the video, I was amazed at the number of people who gave credit to the Bishop's role in their conversion story. Thanks be to God. I've since watched some more videos on the Bishop's youtube channel and have learned lots from them.
Yes, I found that interview encouraging. Bishop Barron has a impressive way of sharing the amazing wisdom of the Church on numerous levels.
