All we need in the novus ordo is for priests to preach on the Real Presence. That’s it, period. The lack of this preaching has lead to people not believing it is really HIM they are receiving. Five minutes after the end of mass, church empty. In my daily experience, almost NO ONE stayed to give thanks for the greatest thing that will ever happen to them.

I implore you to do the research into how many prayers were removed from the novus ordo, as well as how the focus went from sacrifice to a meal time…please do the research. It’s more than just focusing on the real presence. Wake up.

The Novus Ordo is not in conformance to Sacrosanctum Concilium. The NO Mass cut out at least 70% of the prayers that existed from Apostolic times and removed the sense that the Mass is a representation of sacrifice on Calvary to the Father. Bring back the altar rails, get rid of the laity on the altar, and forbid Communion in the hand. Last weekend I stopped a woman sneaking out with a Host in her hand!!

Amen! Thank you so much for posting this, Robert! I was actually just yesterday talking with some friends about Michael Carroll's book (no coincidences)! This is so important for us to remember, especially as traditional Catholics today. His book is the most important book on the spiritual life I've ever read (in terms of practicality). The Holy Ghost was truly guiding the Council to teach this way of Christian Perfection, but the devil has tried very hard to cover it up (getting both modernists and "traditionalists" to do his dirty work). I highly recommend this book to any Catholic serious about acquiring peace of soul in these troubled times.

I would agree that if someone wants to criticize the Documents of Vatican II, they should do so after having read them. As a Roman Catholic, whose parents gave up on the NO and went back to the TLM before I was born, I was brought up with the TLM and catechized with Cardinal Heenan's old Westminster Penny Catechism. As a teenager, the good priests of the SSPX, brought me through St. Pius V's Catechism of the Council of Trent. That is the Catechism I use along with the Douay-Rheims Bible. There is an impression in this Video, that those of us brought up on Trent, the Fathers of the Church, the lateran Councils, Vatican I etc don't have as good a unity with God, as those in the Synodal Church. St. Therese of Lisieux, lived and died without reading the documents of Vatican II. So did, St. Joan of Arc, St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Oliver Plunkett , Sts John Fisher and Thomas More, St. Bernadette, St. Pius V, St. Catherine of Siena and St. Pius X. None of these read the Vatican II documents. I believe that their Union with God is just as Good as those canonized after Vatican II. With regard to Medugorge there is no need to worry. It is a fake unapproved apparition. It has zero significance in my spiritual life. Catholics are not spending enough time studying and praying about the perennial binding public revelation of the Church, as revealed to the Apostles, by the Holy Ghost, on Pentecost Sunday. In a famous 2017 interview on RAI UNO, the Holy Father let slip what he really thought about Medugorge. He stated that the Holy Virgin Mother of God, was NOT a postwoman turning up at the same time everyday with mail. Case closed. For those who wish to follow secure private revelation, I recommend Guadeloupe, Lourdes and Fatima. They all have papal approval.

It is actually spirituality which is taught through rote scholastic manualism which is man centred spirituality. This is what spirituality became all the way through to Vatican II, and was a side product of 700 years of scholasticism. The pure path is union with God through the neo-Platonic lineage. This is the God centred spirituality which has passed through the Church. This more rightly contains infused contemplation and passive purifications. As such, the God centred spirituality is actually in Vatican II.

This video did not say anything substantive about Vatican II . While the 3 ways of the spiritual life are important this sort of misses the point or does not adress the key contentious issues arouns Vatican II being religious 'freedom', collegiality of bishops, ecumenism, new mass, standing of laymen, church vs the world, states, modern communications etc. So I feel the criticism he leveled at Traditionalists might or might not be accurate, but I feel this is certainly not helpful to accuse them of something without talking their arguments at face value. This is cheap polemics and thus disingenous, or is it not? But to be fair I have not read the book

I recently started attending the TLM, and I can say that I feel the real presence of Christ, and a much more reverent worship. I have researched the TLM Order of the Mass, and wow, so much more reverent than the NO mass. I don't like the way the Eucharist is handled in the NO, and I suspect that is why many Catholics don't believe in the real presence. Comparing the two, the TLM wins hands down for me, and I doubt I can attend a NO in future.

You may not be aware that three traditionalists have already cleared up SSPX and trad objections to Dignantatis Humanae (on religious liberty). The academics are all traditionalists themselves. Fr. Thomas Crean and Dr. Alam Finimster (in Integralism: A Political Theology), alongside a separate piece of research by Dr. Thomas Pink of King's College London (in Dignatatis Humanae: Continuity after Leo XIII) have all conclusively demonstrated that Dignatatis Humanae is fully in line with 2000 years of Church teaching. They were instantly cancelled by traditionalist vloggers (apart from Tim Gordon) and also cancelled by the SSPX. Why? The traditionalist internet influencers have a lot of credibility and money to lose if they are proven that they are wrong. The SSPX can't afford to lose more members as their Seminaries are too expensive to maintain. Any truth that comes forward is instantly cancelled, so that average traditionalists have little access to truth so that they may be able to discern for themselves. Dr. Joseph Shaw, Chairman of the LMS (formerly a fellow of Oxford University) has stated that these studies have concluded the arguments, and does not understand why they have not been accepted by traditionalists. As for this video, union with God and Christian perfection is central, both of which only ever pertain to the unitive stage of the three stages of the spiritual life. In short, if someone has not gone through both dark nights (senses and spirit) and entered into the unitive stage, then they have not attained to either union with God nor Christian perfection. The work of the person in the video has been supported by Bishops who support the Latin Mass. No doctrinal error was recorded within the work. This person has also been cancelled by traditionalists. Only evil cancels truth. These are the facts.

Having union with God does not make one like God! In a world so imbued with secularism and sentimental humanitarianism we need to be careful with terms, concepts, and language because if we are not delusion can be cast as something it is not: reality! There is some very convincing evidence that many of the changes made post-V2 especially related to the liturgy and the theology supporting that liturgy (a la Cardinal Roach) shifted the focus from Christ and his sacrificial act to the amorphous the "People of God". Not so ironically, in the almost 1960 plus years of the Church, many real saints lived experience reflect the three ways of spiritual development purgative, the illuminative, and unitive and they did so without needing the spirit and/or documents of Vatican 2. As you say, though we can't go back to the 1500s, let's be careful thinking us moderns have a corner on much of everything.
@linenonthehedgerow74126 күн бұрын
This is a false statement that you have made. St. Augustine and others state that "God became man, so that man could become God'. This statement is also in the Catechism. It is called deification or theosis. Having Union with God does make a person like God. The three stages of the spiritual life is enshrined within the Summa Theological and codified in fullness by the Doctors of the Church (including Gregory the Great and St. Augustine), and more recently by Fr. Garrigou-Lagrange, and Fr. Juan Arintero. This means that all the terms, concepts, and language (as you put it) is necessary. Union with God equates to Christian perfection. Pope Pius XII is clear that this imposition of Christian perfection is a direct mandate from God, and is therefore non-negotiable. St. Francis de Sales states that not to believe in attaining to Christian perfection (union with God) is heresy. All the terminology is in Vatican II. I am afraid that you statement does not hold water, because most traditionalists have never heard of the three fold path, and this is because of poor quality traditionalist leadership. Vatican II is hence needed to remind Catholics that union with God and Christian is non-negotiable. In Novo Millenio Ineunte Pope John Paul II reminds Catholics that it is necessary to go through the dark nights (he even mentions painful nights). It is the trads that are off here, not Vatican II or John Paul II. It isn't about the saints going through the purgative, illuminative, and unitive stages, it is about every living catholic going through them now.
