I have a great sympathy with poor priests Terry. It is the most difficult thing in the World to tell the truth to people who don't want to hear it and lets face it who does? It is different here on the forum we can be honest with each other and with no conseqences. But in these latter times the last thing people want to hear is the truth. There was a time when priests had Bishops and the Vatican to have their backs but these days their Bishops would be the very first, very often to remove them. There is a lovely account from the life of the Cure of Ars St john Vianney. He used to give basic cathechism lessons to the little poor orphans he took care of. But adults used to stream in to hear him giving these. Why? Because he gave them from the heart. He told the truth. From the heart. I read one spiritual writer who said that anyone who told the clear unvarnished truth would be torn to pieces in very short order. But at least they could try to preach at least a little of the truth.
We must pray for this Franciscan, asking St. Francis, himself, in joining us in our intercessions. The truth is not only does he spew lies which confuse the Faithful, but he has enough of a captive audience that the sorry rebellion within our beloved Church is revealed, and even grows! How important, therefore, is not only our horror, but our prayers for them. Dear Lady, we are weak sinners. Please pray for us and for those who denigrate your Maternal interventions!

In an analysis published by veteran Vaticanist Sandro Magister, the 97-year-old German prelate outlined an authentic notion of a synod and warned about how easily the meeting can be corrupted.
If we were in a big family at a funeral we would be careful what we said. We would know that very often family splits and fallings out often happen at funerals, especially when there is drink taken. We would watch every word. Why? Because we love our family and do not want to do something that would jeopardise things. But we love our family. The same with the Church. The Church is our family we would never want to harm it. I question if everyone else is like that. Including the folks who are supposed to be our Spiritual Fathers. Take the way they are treating our little Trad sisters and brothers, they are pretty well jumping up and down stomping right in their faces. This is not love. This feels very,very much to me like hate.
The above clip is remarkable in its scope in exposing modernism in the Church yet pointing to signs of hope. Christ shall not be robbed of His Triumph! Two hours may be long, but 1 hour would provide much encouragement.

Makes one wonder what’s he afraid of? Hard to understand the logic. It requires him to dismiss most of the recognised Apparitions, but also most of the Old and New Testaments as well, along with most of the Tradition and Theology of The Church for two millennia. A snake-oil salesman. We know what happens to snakes.
I’d be careful. I’ve seen him say that Christianity, Islam and Judaism are equal. I’ll try to find the video later.
I knew him years ago and was at one of his healing masses one time in Medjugorje, just after the war. The place all around the church dome was filled to overflowing all the way down to cemetery and beyond. I was standing on steps near the altar. Fr. James started the mass and stopped after the Confiteor. He prayed for the Holy Spirit to help people forgive. In my own prayer and spirit I could see a huge black cloud hovering over the crowd. Fr. James prayed the Confiteor again and stopped and again asked the Holy Spirit for help. I then saw the cloud disperse. Fr. James prayed the Confiteor a third time and then continued on with the mass. I lost contact with him over the years but heard he was physically disabled for some years and accepted it in reparation. I remember him telling of a time he was asked to pray with a brother of a very important person. This person was in a room in a palace and when Fr. opened the door he realised this person was a leper. Fr. said to him that he would remain at the door and bless him from there. He then heard Jesus telling him to bless him in person. He went in and blessed him. The leper was healed.
Well to be honest I have not done Discernment on him. Who has the time? It takes weeks maybe months. But what I would say is every word out of his mouth resounds in my heart. I don't disagree with a single word he says. More than that it is a perfect exposition of modern Catholic Prophecy in a nutshell. Word for word.
I am fascinated with the stigmata on his hands; I can't stop looking at them. Have you seen them? They are quite clear on the videos. I would so love to see a medical report.
