in my opinion he is the false Christ of the new age; something on the level of deception of the Blue beam project.
I think we should look with special attention to Iran, which is the land where Zoroastrianism (very revered in Freemasonry) and the Baha'i faith emerged, which coincides exactly with Masonic traditions and has the advantage of being little known by Christians in the world. (while Freemasonry works openly) in fact, if you search on Google "baha'i faith motheofgod.com (to return searches in this forum) Google will not return results for the posts I made here in the forum, which seems to indicate that the mechanisms search engines are controlling search results. https://www.google.com/search?q=bah...droid-samsung&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8
In my opinion the seduction is coming through cell phones and electronic devices, not through people. Just the opposite of our Lord, who came as a simple person talking to people directly. The AC will not be in person, but the master of lies — virtual/online.
I believe that on the day of the global declaration of the antichrist, the fallen angels will be in great numbers throughout the earth, operating a satanic ecstasy in the hearts of those who have already absorbed the contents of the new age and false religions. The opposite of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I believe this has happened in the past, on a smaller scale, in the poor German nation of the 1930s.
I feel this kind of happened in Rhwanda during the genocide.all at once, one tribe turned and killed the other tribe. It was like evil took over them. Our Lady of Kibeho warned them in the 1980’s of something horrible would happen if they didn’t pray and turn to God.
As much as we are told, urged to pray, I think many don't take Her seriously enough. Myself included...as much as I encourage others, how often do I head that urging. Am I a hypocrite for not praying a daily rosary? I often blend a rosary & DM chaplet. 1) it takes me an hour for a rosary, 2) praying a couple decades from the heart plus pleading for mercy for certain things & people seem like a great alternative. But Blessed Mother said the Rosary.
I pray the rosary along with Ewtn Plus online at Come Pray the Rosary It keeps a prayer momentum that I really need Sometimes I do pray on my own or in the car
The Dogma of Papal Infallibility still counts. I believe any Pope who tried to counteract this would be struck dead on the spot . The only difficulty being that this might not apply to an anti Pope.
I think the problem is that if we must wait for the church to solemnly define that someone was an antipope, then we must be linked to this antipope until the last day of his antipontificate, through the duty of being in full communion with the Roman pontiff (as a factor indispensable for salvation).
"Love the Pope!" - no ifs, and no buts: For Bishops, priests, and faithful, Saint Pius X explains what loving the Pope really entails The struggle against Modernism had taken a great toll on Pope Saint Pius X as he spoke 100 years ago, in November 1912, to the members of the Apostolic Union of Clergy, a confraternity of secular priests in union with the Holy See. He knew that despite every effort, he was being disobeyed and disregarded in so many places, by priests and even by bishops. He knew "learned" scholars despised him, and wished their authority to take the place of the Apostolic voice. In a cry coming deep from his holy heart, the Pope summoned all the Church to understand what love for the Pope, any Pope, the one who holds the Keys, truly entails: a hard message that, exactly one century later, must be heard and obeyed by the clergy and by the lay faithful. ________________________________ Distracted with so many occupations, it is easy to forget the things that lead to perfection in priestly life; it is easy [for the priest] to delude himself and to believe that, by busying himself with the salvation of the souls of others, he consequently works for his own sanctification. Alas, let not this delusion lead you to error, because nemo dat quod nemo habet [no one gives what he does not have]; and, in order to sanctify others, it is necessary not to neglect any of the ways proposed for the sanctification of our own selves. ... The Pope is the guardian of dogma and of morals; he is the custodian of the principles that make families sound, nations great, souls holy; he is the counsellor of princes and of peoples; he is the head under whom no one feels tyrannized because he represents God Himself; he is the supreme father who unites in himself all that may exist that is loving, tender, divine. It seems incredible, and is even painful, that there be priests to whom this recommendation must be made, but we are regrettably in our age in this hard, unhappy, situation of having to tell priests: love the Pope! And how must the Pope be loved? Non verbo neque lingua, sed opere et veritate. [Not in word, nor in tongue, but in deed, and in truth - 1 Jn iii, 18] When one loves a person, one tries to adhere in everything to his thoughts, to fulfill his will, to perform his wishes. And if Our Lord Jesus Christ said of Himself, "si quis diligit me, sermonem meum servabit," [if any one love me, he will keep my word - Jn xiv, 23] therefore, in order to demonstrate our love for the Pope, it is necessary to obey him. Therefore, when we love the Pope, there are no discussions regarding what he orders or demands, or up to what point obedience must go, and in what things he is to be obeyed; when we love the Pope, we do not say that he has not spoken clearly enough, almost as if he were forced to repeat to the ear of each one the will clearly expressed so many times not only in person, but with letters and other public documents; we do not place his orders in doubt, adding the facile pretext of those unwilling to obey - that it is not the Pope who commands, but those who surround him; we do not limit the field in which he might and must exercise his authority; we do not set above the authority of the Pope that of other persons, however learned, who dissent from the Pope, who, even though learned, are not holy, because whoever is holy cannot dissent from the Pope. This is the cry of a heart filled with pain, that with deep sadness I express, not for your sake, dear brothers, but to deplore, with you, the conduct of so many priests, who not only allow themselves to debate and criticize the wishes of the Pope, but are not embarrassed to reach shameless and blatant disobedience, with so much scandal for the good and with so great damage to souls.

Saint Pius X seems to point to a type of unconditional obedience to the Pope that seems unsustainable given what is happening in the Vatican today. So, how should we wait for the church's solemn definition of Francis' legitimacy and, at the same time, not jump into the abyss that Francis is leading humanity into?
I've read about this "prodigy" before. One of many false Christ's i expect. Didn't Jesus tell the Jews "I come in my Father's Name and you will not believe. But there is one coming in his own name and him you will believe."
Thanks, HH. I respect the calm, forthright delivery of the good Bishop. His thinking is clear, tempered, and to the point; even in interviews you sense no promotion of himself, but rather a profound love of Christ and His Church. God bless Bishop Athanasius Schneider!
Give the Papacy respect and obey in all things lawful. Don’t look to the right or left, and don’t borrow trouble. God is working things out. Have faith as of a grain of mustard seed.
The angel also assured the apostles, He will return the same way He left, on clouds down from Heaven.
