Pope Benedict XVI Makes 2 Specific Request of UK Bishops...
"My child and My children, you are all My children. I judge you not by color or race, and I do not judge you by your creed; however, should the knowledge of the One True Church be given to you, and the way to Heaven along the narrow road be given to you, you will follow it or you will be rejected." - Our Lady, August 21, 1985
CHANGES MUST BE STOPPED AND REVERSED
"There is no excuse accepted now by the Eternal Father among the clergy, who now
offend the Eternal Father by misleading the children of God upon earth. The
experimentation and changes must be stopped and reversed! There is no other
course.” – Our
Lady, August 4, 1979
Zenit reported on September 19, 2010:
Benedict XVI took leave of the United Kingdom today, entrusting before he left two particular tasks to the bishops of England, Scotland and Wales.
The final activity on the Pope's tightly-packed agenda was a meeting with the prelates at St. Mary's College seminary, an architecturally magnificent site rich in the history of the Catholic renewal in England after centuries of persecution.
Following his meeting with the bishops, the Holy Father had just one more address -- at the airport -- before he left for Rome after an intense four-day visit. He concluded his talk with the bishops by pointing to "two specific matters that affect your episcopal ministry at this time."
New translation
The first is the new translation of the Roman Missal.
After thanking the bishops for their work in reviewing and approving the texts, he urged the prelates to "seize the opportunity that the new translation offers for in-depth catechesis on the Eucharist and renewed devotion in the manner of its celebration."
Citing "Sacramentum Caritatis," the Holy Father said, "The more lively the Eucharistic faith of the people of God, the deeper is its sharing in ecclesial life in steadfast commitment to the mission entrusted by Christ to his disciples."
The new translation was approved by the Vatican in July.
Generous with Anglicans
"The other matter," Benedict XVI continued, is a request to "be generous in implementing the apostolic constitution 'Anglicanorum Coetibus.'"
That November 2009 document provides for Anglicans to come in groups into full communion with Rome.
"This should be seen as a prophetic gesture that can contribute positively to the developing relations between Anglicans and Catholics," the Pope said. "It helps us to set our sights on the ultimate goal of all ecumenical activity: the restoration of full ecclesial communion in the context of which the mutual exchange of gifts from our respective spiritual patrimonies serves as an enrichment to us all."
"Let us continue to pray and work unceasingly in order to hasten the joyful day when that goal can be accomplished."

Four marks of the True Church: One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic…
The following is taken from the booklet, "Faith and common sense", + Imprimatur: Most Reverend John F. Whealon, Archbishop of Hartford:
After Christ left this world, His Church did spring
into action, fully prepared to carry on His work. This Church was not something
vague in character. Christ said precisely what He wanted it to be. His Church
was to be built upon the Apostles. It would continue down to the end of time in
the same way, ruled by the successors of the Apostles. That is perhaps the
clearest thing of all.
He also intended it to be one Church, not a number of
churches. The Church He had in mind was to be for all men. It would work for
their sanctification and salvation. These qualities were so clearly built into
the Church that they were marks setting off the true Church of Christ from all
other institutions claiming the name. Catholics say that these marks are unity,
catholicity, holiness and apostolicity.
When we examine the early Church as it appears in the
time of the Apostles, we find that it had all these qualities. One Church and
only one is in existence today which clearly shows the same four marks. This is
the Catholic Church.
Around the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome are
inscribed the words, “Thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my Church.”
Those words are as true of the present Pope as they were of St. Peter. The Pope
is the successor of Peter, and he has the same authority as the Prince of the
Apostles once had.
That is a truth which can be amply proved by the facts. No other religious
society can trace its heritage back through the centuries to St. Peter.
Pope Paul VI, the present Bishop of Rome [Note: Paul
VI was Pope at
the time this article was written], is a successor of St. Peter. Year by
year the succession can be traced back to the time of the great Apostle himself.
Some of the Popes lived for only a few years or months; some have had very long
terms of office. Some of them have been great leaders in world affairs; some
relatively obscure. But they are all known to history.
Today in the Catholic Church the Pope holds the
fullness of power the same as Peter did in the early Church. He is not like a
democratically-elected president whose power depends on the consent of the
governed. Like Peter he has been made the shepherd of the flock by the Lord, and
he has the same absolute power as Peter.
Under him in the administration of the Church are the Bishops and priests. Their
power comes from God, as once the power of the Twelve came from Christ. St. Paul
said to the presbyters of Ephesus, “Take heed to yourselves and to the whole
flock in which the Holy Spirit has placed you as bishops to rule the Church of
God” (Acts 20:28).
There is no doubt that the Catholic Church today is
apostolic in the line of succession of its Bishops and the Pope, and that it
possesses an authority which was once given to the Apostles.
UNITY OF RULE, BELIEF, RITUAL
St. Paul told the Ephesians to remember that they
had “one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism” (Eph. 4:5). The Catholic Church does have
that unity of rule, belief and ritual.
All Catholics everywhere recognize the authority of the
Pope, the Vicar of Christ. He is the representative of the Lord, and presents
the final judgments or decision on matters of faith and morals. Catholics do not
accept the official pronouncements of the Pope only when they agree with them.
They accept them at all times because they recognize his authority.
All Catholics believe the same faith. There is no
difference in the essential doctrines which various priests teach. One Bishop
does not have his own truths about religion which are different from the beliefs
of another Bishop. Both are explaining the doctrine of the Catholic Church, not
their own ideas about doctrines. The manner of preaching may be different; the
doctrine is the same throughout the world. There is “one faith” in the Catholic
Church.
So also there is but one “Baptism.” The term embraces
all those essential rites which the Catholic Church practices. The most
important rite of the Catholic Church is the Mass. The Mass is the re-enactment
of the Last Supper, as was commanded by Christ. All Catholics are obliged to
attend Mass every Sunday and on the important religious festivals of the year.
This obligation is world-wide. So is the Mass. Our soldiers serving in foreign
countries are always at home when they go into the Catholic churches of those
nations; they find the Mass essentially as they knew it in the United States.
The Mass is celebrated in every Catholic church throughout the world and
consists of the same essential rite of the consecration of the bread and wine
into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.
The seven sacraments–Baptism, Confirmation, the
Eucharist, Penance, Matrimony, Holy Orders and the Anointing of the Sick–are the
same throughout the world. They are administered in the same way in all places.
Every Catholic is obliged to make use of them at appropriate times; there are no
national differences.
THE MARK OF HOLINESS
Not only does the Catholic Church have that mark of
unity which Christ wished His Church to have; it also has the mark of holiness.
Christ instituted His Church to make men holy and to bring them to heaven. The
Catholic Church does just that. None of its teaching ever leads men away from
God; none ever twists human nature into some frightening form. All its practices
and teachings tend to make men better.
Moreover, the Catholic Church provides men with the
means to become better. It does not simply offer the “consolation of religion.”
It does something about man’s ceaseless struggle to become better. To those who
are conscious of sinfulness, it does not merely say, “Repent in the secret of
your heart and try to do your best in the future.” It says, “Go to the sacrament
of Penance; have your sins forgiven, and receive the grace which that sacrament
provides to help you avoid these sins for the future.” At the bedside of those
seriously ill, the Catholic priest does not merely exhort the Catholic to be
sorry for his sins and cast himself upon the mercy of God. The Catholic Church
has a rite, the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick which forgives sins and
brings the spiritual and physical help which men need in grave sickness.
“Is any one among you sick?” asks St. James. “Let him
bring in the presbyters of the Church, and let them pray over him, anointing him
with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick
man, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he be in sins, they shall be
forgiven him” (James 5:14-16). That is what the Catholic Church does for her
members.
Finally, the Catholic Church is world-wide. That is a
fact today as it has been a fact for all these centuries past. The membership of
the Catholic Church consists of people of all nations, from every part of the
world.
That is not an accident or the result of good salesmanship. It is the result of
the very nature of the Church of Christ. He sent His Apostles to make disciples
of all nations. The doctrine and practices which He left them were of such a
nature that they appeal to all nations. There has never been a nation which
found the doctrine of the Catholic Church contradictory to its own culture or
thought.
When Pere Marquette journeyed down the Mississippi,
preaching the Gospel, he found Indians who were anxious to listen to the story
of the death of Christ upon the Cross. They were baptized and accepted
Christianity wholeheartedly. When St. Francis Xavier reached Japan, he found the
natives eager to hear the message. So firm were they in their faith that for two
centuries during persecution they held on to that faith despite martyrdom. The
Catholic Church is an ancient faith in Japan today, not a recent development.
So it has been everywhere. The Catholic Church has not
been the product of one culture or one nation. Catholicism followed the Spanish
armies into this country, and the Spanish armies were defeated. It has little to
do with the English colonization of the eastern seaboard. Yet today the Catholic
Church is the largest single religious body in the United States and a native
part of our culture. The Catholic Church is universal in its appeal. That is why
it is called “Catholic,” for catholic means universal.
THE TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST
These are the qualities which mark out the Catholic
Church today as the one religious organization in the world which is identical
with the Church which Jesus Christ founded. It is one, holy, catholic and
apostolic, just as was the Church in the time of the first Apostles.
These four marks point out the Catholic Church as the
true Church of Christ in another way. Only God can work a miracle. Now these
four qualities in a society are obviously miraculous.
Take unity, for example. We have erected a society called the United Nations to
make something of that unity. But it seems the more nations we have in it, the
less unity there is.
Political parties meet in convention to draw up a
“platform” of action. But the platform cannot be too definite. There have to be
compromises in deference to sharply conflicting views. The more divergent the
factions in the party, the less agreement can be reached. All things human show
the same tendency to disintegrate under the pressure of expansion.
The truths held by all Catholics are numerous and
detailed; sometimes they are involved. For example, all Catholics believe in
transubstantiation. Transubstantiation is the term applied to the change of the
whole substance of bread into the Body of Christ and the change of the whole substance
of wine into the substance of the Blood of Christ, the appearance of bread and
wine remaining. That is a very definite belief, though a rather involved one. It
is not the kind of truth people would come to know and believe on their own. All
Catholics hold it with equal belief and with complete acceptance.
So it is with many other points of Catholic belief. The
unity of the Catholic Church is something which is not matched anywhere else in
the world. It is not that the Catholic Church is a little more united than other
societies. It is that the Catholic Church is unified in a way which no other
society was ever united. The ordinary laws of sociology do not apply here. That
is what we mean by a miracle. Such unity cannot be explained on any natural
basis.
Take the case of the Church’s apostolic tradition. It
is just not reasonable that a society which has lived so vigorously as the
Catholic Church should not have burned itself out by this time. Every other
society which was in existence when Christ founded His Church–the Roman Empire,
nation of the Gauls, the great universities of Greece–has passed away. Groups
have broken off from the Catholic Church during its almost two thousand years of
existence. They have followed the curve of disintegration which governs all
natural societies. They have waxed strong for a while, grown old and they have
passed away.
As the man in the Gospel who was born blind said after
receiving his sight, “If this man were not from God, he could do nothing” (John
9:33). If the Catholic Church were not from God, it could not continue to
possess, as the Catholic Church does, the four marks which Christ’s True Church
must possess–apostolicity, catholicity, unity and holiness. Any church may claim
these symbols of authenticity and authority. But only one may truly possess them.
"You have been given by your baptism entrance into the only true religion upon earth, the Roman Catholic Church under My Son, Jesus. Though man in his arrogance and pride has forgotten His role and His rule, you must carry it forward. Retain the Faith and the truth in the hearts of mankind." - Our Lady of the Roses, September 7, 1978
"I gave you a simple plan with the construction of My House, My Church, upon earth. But now you want to reform it, until you will split My House asunder with many denominations, many new denominations. I ask that My Church be universal, apostolic, and the saver of souls. However, there are rules to be followed, doctrines to remain unchanged." - Jesus, September 7, 1978
Our Lady of
the Roses awesome Bayside Prophecies...
https://www.tldm.org/../Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica
Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.
ONLY TRUE RELIGION
"O My children, I will not go into a long discourse now with you about charity
and love for your neighbor, but you must understand: you cannot judge your
neighbor. You must pray for them. However, you cannot become weak and
permissive. You must stand forth as bearers of the light, carriers of the truth.
You have been given by your baptism entrance into the only true religion upon
earth, the Roman Catholic Church under My Son, Jesus. Though man in his
arrogance and pride has forgotten His role and His rule, you must carry it
forward. Retain the Faith and the truth in the hearts of mankind." - Our
Lady, September 7, 1978
YOUR BIRTHRIGHT
"As in the past, rejection has been the start of a fallen man. Sin has become a
way of life with many. You live in a delusion if you believe that you can offend
the Eternal Father and then gain eternal life in the Kingdom. No, I say to you:
many are called, but few are chosen.
"Ask and you shall receive, believe and you will be given the way. But you
must merit the Kingdom. Your birthright was a start, but you must make your way
to the Kingdom. Others may gain these graces for you by prayer and acts of
sacrifice, but you will accept or reject the key." - Jesus, May 26, 1976
ONE TRUE CHURCH
"My child
and My children, you are all My children. I judge you not by color or race, and
I do not judge you by your creed; however, should the knowledge of the One True
Church be given to you, and the way to Heaven along the narrow road be given to
you, you will follow it or you will be rejected." - Our Lady, August 21, 1985
RELIGION OF THE
CROSS
"There is
only one religion that can save your country and all of the countries of the
world: the religion of the cross and My Son's sacrifice upon that cross." -
Our Lady, November 25, 1978
SEPARATED BRETHREN
"O My
children, pray much! We do not want to see a division in My Son's House. The
Roman Catholic Church must remain one! But this does not mean, as the church of
man states, that you will bring all manner of heretics and separated brethren
in. No, My children, that is an error, a delusion from satan. You cannot change
My Son's House and bring them in and change for them! They must change and come
back to the original rule given by My Son and those who were with Him in the
building of the foundation.
"I repeat, My child and My children: separated brethren must change. They
have protested in the past; they have taken themselves away from the truth and
the one true Church. They must reject the errors they have made in the past and
come back and start again. They cannot bring their errors into My Son's House.
"You are opening the doors now for all manner of heretics, separated
brethren. They do not come to unite in good spirit and heart; they come to take
over. They seek to change you, O pastors, who are being deluded. And what do I
see in My Son's House but separated brethren upon His pulpit! Even from the
temples, the synagogues of satan, upon His pulpit! And for what?
"And who are My pastors now that have joined in this plan of destruction? Who
ordained some of them? Not legitimate hands. They come to destroy. They come in
like rats, burrowing, undermining My Son's Church! Do you think you are not
watched? Are you above your Creator that you think you can deceive the world
permanently? No, I say unto you! You are being given your time, for you who have
given yourselves to satan are now exposing your true nature to the world." -
Our Lady, March 18, 1977
ESTABLISHED BY
JESUS CHRIST
"There
are many deceptions taking place among you, and one being the falsification of
the manner of the salvation of souls. When I was upon earth, I established the
rules and I gave you My Church, My House. However, now I watch as many have gone
forward with itching ears and novelty, and they are setting upon the world a new
religion." - Jesus, May 20, 1978
WILL STAND
"Do not
be deluded, My children, by the agents of satan among you in human form who
preach doctrines of devils. The truth has been given to mankind through the
ages. The Holy Roman Catholic Church of My Son will stand. The members shall be
reduced to few. Only a remnant, My child, shall carry the banner Faithful and
True. But the gates of hell shall fight a heavy battle against My Son's Church,
but they shall not succeed." - Our Lady, May 14, 1977
ONLY SANCTIFIED
HOUSE
"Your
children are wandering into the web of satan, going farther from the House of My
Son. The truth is being removed from their hearts. They are setting among
themselves groups. They shall not remove from their lives vows of My Son. As the
only sanctified House upon earth, their souls will be destroyed when they are
not given the Bread of living life. This Bread will only be obtained in the
sanctified House of My Son. Satan seeks to remove the tabernacle from among
you." - Our Lady, August 5, 1973
STOP CHANGE AND NOVELTY
"My child and My children, make it known to all that the road to Heaven
was never easy, but you can make it much easier upon yourselves and your
families if you follow the rules, if you follow the Commandments from the
Eternal Father. The changes that We see taking place in My House and upon earth
are not good, for many, many souls are falling into hell. And a great measure of
responsibility now is with those who have been called to the holy orders, who
have given themselves to represent Me upon earth. Shall I say that I have found
many Judases now within My House? Cannot this situation be changed?
"There is only one way that this can be stopped, this
evil that has seeped into My House and into the hearts of all mankind. You must
stop now your seeking for change and novelty. You must restore My Church to its
former glory. Admit your error. Do not conceal this with pride and arrogance.
"Remember there was the time when it was necessary to
cast Luciel and his followers from Heaven--Lucifer, who now goads you on to hell
with him, upon earth. He had to be cast from Heaven because he, too, became
prideful and arrogant, seeking to make himself another living god. This cannot
be done. You cannot be above your Creator.” – Jesus, September 7,
1978
DO NOT ACCEPT
"My children, you must retain Tradition; you must retain a firm
foundation of your faith by keeping all of the good publications. Do not accept
the changes that have been made by satan to seduce your souls.” – Jesus,
November 19, 1977
INDOCTRINATED
Veronica - The books are being changed to cover the evil being
perpetrated now. The young are being indoctrinated to accept changes which will
take away Tradition and even doctrine. Our Lady said we must all pray a constant
vigilance of prayer. It has a great power over the demons. – November
19, 1977
NOT FROM HOLY SPIRIT
"I must, My child, make it known at this time that you must go back in
the immediate years and bring the knowledge to mankind that these changes, the
changes that have given bad fruits, have not been given to you through the Holy
Spirit and through your Vicar, Pope Paul VI. It is the web of satan reaching
out. Many are now, My child, puppets. The strings are being pulled by Benelli,
Villot, and Casaroli and their followers.” – Our Lady, September
27, 1975
YOU HAVE STRAYED
"O My children, how far you have strayed from the truth! The knowledge
given to you by your prophets were written down in truth to guide you, but now
you change the words to suit your basic carnal human natures. Go back and read,
My children, the true words of your prophets. But do not accept changes in the
Book, for these changes have been promoted by satan. Heresy, O mournful heresy,
whatever shall become of you!
"Parents, I caution you anew to guard the souls of your
children by your teaching and example. You cannot save your children's souls by
giving them to false teachers and the world, for the world has now been given to
satan.” – Our Lady, June 5, 1976
“WE DO NOT CONDONE VARIATIONS AND CHANGES"
"It has grieved Me much in the past, as it grieves Me now, that mankind
is making changes to My words. I assure you, My children and pastors within My
houses, My Church upon earth, there is no necessity to change My words. Heaven,
hell, purgatory, and especially, My children, the word 'hell' must be retained
in your prayers.
"Repeat, My child, the confessional prayer.
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee,
and I confess to all my sins, because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains
of hell, but most of all because I love Thee, my God, Who are all-good and
deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to
confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.
"Yes, My child, We do not condone variations and
changes. It is the enemies of your God that have set themselves to promote
change upon My words. The word of your God is eternal and must not be changed.”
– Jesus, February 10, 1977
ONLY SATAN SEEKS CHANGE
"We ask--the Eternal Father speaks, and demands that all bishops in the
houses of God throughout your world must turn back to prayer. They must turn
back from the road they have chosen, a road filled with error, corruption, and
sin. Man will not make changes in the House of God to please the basic carnal
nature of mankind! But man in the House of God--the leaders, the clergy chosen
by the Eternal Father, shall turn man from his path of destruction and bring him
into the House of God. This he will not accomplish by lowering the rule or
standards. Man must change his ways and follow the ways of God.
"You are, My children, living in the era of Antichrist.
Recognize the signs of your times, and you will not fall into error. Read the
Book, My children. You read books of corruption and vile debauchery. Restore the
truth in your heart, into your children and homes. Open the good Book, the
Bible, and read it in your homes.
"My Son has already set up the rule for the houses
throughout the world, the churches. They are written in the Book of love and
life, the Bible. Read and learn, and follow the truth!
"There is no time or change in Heaven. The Father never
changes. It is only satan who seeks change to disturb, corrupt, and degrade.
Satan roams wherever there is darkness of spirit. He will debase mankind in a
manner so foul that you will know that no human could conceive of such vileness
of sin.” – Our Lady, March 22, 1975
