Poor Father Mark has been ordered under obedience to can it. You could see this coming a mile off. He was maybe a little innocent poor man. Poor Father, prayers. He is being obedient but I am sure he not having a good time of it. Many, many prayers. Poor man.
I think this is why the laity have to pick up the banner and carry it. Those who should speak up are remaining silent and those who have power are muzzling those few who do raise their voices. The Church has never faced anything remotely like this.
Yes he is just so charitable in ascribing motives to those who have done this. So very,very charitable and obedient. How inspiring! How saintly! Immediate total obedience coupled with a perfect charity. He will do more by his silence than he ever could by speaking out. But its true the banner of war has fallen, we lay folk must take his place . What a truly remarkable young priest, I so, so admire him. This reminds me the time they silenced poor St Padre Pio. A lot of that had to do with homosexual shennanigans in the Church too. I wonder if they'll silence Cardinal Wuerl or Fr Martin next? (No that's not gonna happen..I wonder why?) I hope Father Mark doesn't fall down some dark hole and end up ministering to the penguins in Alaska. These awful folk are ruthless. What a wonderful priest!! What an example!! But he's doing the right thing, no doubt about it.
We are seeing the shoots and sprouts of renewal all around us. The "Nu-church" is falling away into corruption of its own making and the Tru-Church is re-emerging as a springtime flower. 32And from the fig tree learn a parable: When the branch thereof is now tender, and the leaves come forth, you know that summer is nigh. 33So you also, when you shall see all these things, know ye that it is nigh, even at the doors. 34Amen I say to you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done. 35Heaven and earth shall pass, but my words shall not pass. -Matthew 42:32
It is very,very aggravating though. At the same time I think these wicked people may have just shot themselves in the foot once again. This may have been a big, big mistake and they may regret this. It kinda shows them up for who and what they are.
They are trying to use water to put out a grease fire. This is how God makes saints though. I think God is allowing them to make more and more horrible choices. If it wasn't such a serious issue I would almost say it is becoming comical to watch. The Diabolical Disorientation is becoming so obvious that even those without any faith are scratching their heads saying "What are they thinking?"
As difficult as it is to watch, Fr. Goring made the right decision. The only decision really. Priests are under a very different kind of obedience than the laity. Thank goodness we have men like Dr. Taylor Marshall, Patrick Coffin, Michale Voris and many others who are keeping the fires of faith stoked. It is very sad that this has fallen to the laity.
Fr Goring has already touched many people through his videos. His voice will still resonate even when he is silenced.
Meanwhile, dissident priests continue on their merry way and not a thing is done about the Fr Martins et al and his ilk Here in Ireland we have the association of protestant priests continuing down the path of apostasy --- and not a word said from the superiors! https://www.associationofcatholicpriests.ie/
I am glad things are becoming so clear though. The heretics and apostates are promoted and allowed to preach. The truth-sayers are silenced. It can't get much clearer than that.
There is one wee problem. Many, many people are going to hell because the light of truth is being extinguished. I am convinced that we are seeing the First Secret of Fatima being played out in our midst because of apostasy being tolerated within the Church. We are heading towards the peak of spiritual chastisements which will result in untold numbers of souls being lost. ‘Our Lady showed us a great sea of fire which seemed to be under the earth. Plunged in this fire were demons and souls in human form, like transparent burning embers, all blackened or burnished bronze, floating about in the conflagration, now raised into the air by the flames that issued from within themselves together with great clouds of smoke, now falling back on every side like sparks in a huge fire, without weight or equilibrium, and amid shrieks and groans of pain and despair, which horrified us and made us tremble with fear.‘ The demons could be distinguished by their terrifying and repulsive likeness to frightful and unknown animals, all black and transparent. This vision lasted but an instant.’ She went on to say, ‘How can we ever be grateful enough to our kind heavenly mother, who had already prepared us by promising, in the first Apparition, to take us to heaven. Otherwise, I think we would have died of fear and terror.’
Many are going to be saved though as well. How many Catholics were "asleep" until recently. I think many more were already on their way to Hell than we would like to think before all of this started. They were just going there in a much quieter fashion. God is shaking them awake.
I hasten to write that I do not ascribe ill motive to Fr Mark's immediate religious superiors nor to his local Diocesan Bishop. From what I have heard things are just fine there. My own sense of things is that this comes from very high up indeed; from Rome in fact. Fr Mark seems to belong to a very holy group indeed, including his superiors. But they have to take orders too. I understand this. As of course does the local Bishop.
True. Interesting to note at Akita our Lady reinforced the Fatima message The thought of the loss of so many souls is the cause of my sadness.
One good thing about having Faith is that for those who love God all things work together for the good. So that even things that look evil work together to enable God's plans.
I think that it is still not too late to join the St. Joseph Battalion, that is the name that Father Mark Goring gave to his group of supporters. He asked that each member kneel and say a prayer 3 times a day and he wanted everyone who was committed to joining him to send a picture of themselves to him. He was going to continue to ask the members of his group to do little things besides prayer to help fight against the corruption in the Church and to fight for orthodoxy to be upheld in the Church. Those are my words but I believe that was the gist of his idea. I discussed Father Goring's first request (beyond prayer) to the St. Joseph Battalion on the Vatican Has Fallen thread here #11088. I sent an email as he requested and I thought others may want to also. At a minimum, I think it would be wonderful if he received a picture from every MOG member and a little note of support. I am sure that he would continue to discuss all the mail that he receives on future videos. Just imagine if the mail continues to come pouring in to this very faithful and obedient priest . If you are interested in reaching out to Father Mark Goring and sending him a picture of yourself (and maybe of your family too), his address is the following: Father Mark Goring 1949 Cullen Blvd. Houston, TX 77023
I am going to send a photo and a note. Fr. Mark's videos are very good. I have been watching his past videos as well as his more recent abuse scandal ones. I bet his homilies are not just "social justice" like so much of what we get now at Mass. I saw his most recent videos before they were taken down. He has a way of speaking that brings people in. His sincerity is compelling. His obedience is commendable, something I struggle with for sure. I have a difficult time with people telling me I can't do something. So Fr. Mark is still teaching by example. I will continue to pray for him and his priesthood. Hopefully we can all still enjoy videos from him on catechesis
As far as I can tell he never said or did anything wrong. Quite the contrary; he was doing much good. But then I am not trying trying to cover anything up. So sad. But he seems very well and in fine form. I admire him so much for not going off the deep end. He is very spiritual. A class act.
