The looming expiry of Title 42 is expected to bring an influx of migrants to the southern US border.
Your land, strangers devour it in your presence.
Isaiah 1:7
When I was a kid, I remember going on a snipe hunt. A snipe, we were told, was this somewhat mysterious beast that came out at night, and it was our job to catch one. The problem was nobody seemed to really know what a snipe looked like. That’s a bit of a problem. Because if you don’t know what you’re looking for, you can’t recognize it, even if it’s standing right in front of you. Unsurprisingly, our search for the mythical snipe, while it was a lot of fun, ultimately proved fruitless.
The contemporary Protestant church is much like we kids were on our snipe hunt. Books are written about Antichrist and some people seem to know who he is or was. The preterists will tell you Antichrist has long since come and gone in the person of the emperor Nero. We have nothing to fear from him in the 21st century. The futurist school, which dominates in our own time, sees Antichrist as having not yet come. While preterism and futurism come to very different conclusions about the identity of Antichrist, they have this one thing in common, there is no current Antichrist.
Actually, preterism and futurism have something else in common: They were both developed by the Jesuits during the counterreformation to take the heat off the pope, whom the reformers almost to a man had identified as the Antichrist, man of sin, and son of perdition of the Scriptures. This stance, identifying the office of the papacy as the Antichrist, is one facet of the Protestant school of prophetic interpretation known as historicism.

I haven’t written about immigration for a little while, but not because the Biden Regime’s treasonous, Vatican-directed destruction hasn’t been proceeding apace. Perhaps I’ve been a bit distracted. At any rate, if the immigration stories over the past few days are true, and I have every reason to believe they are, Biden’s border treason is about to go next level.
Per the New York Post, “Biden all but admits we’ll see even worse border chaos in May.” Why will it be worse? The Vaticanite Biden Regime will be removing one of the remaining legal barriers to a complete overrun of our southern border by illegal alien welfare invaders, the Title 42 restrictions. Title 42 is a code that has been in place for decades, but which the Trump administration used to remove bogus asylum seekers on the argument that they posed a public health risk during the Covid emergency.
Of course, we’re glad the Covid emergency is ending. It should never have been declared in the first place. But Title 42 has been effective in keeping the Biden Regime’s border invasion less disastrous than it otherwise would have been. According to this piece from PBS, “Since 2020, there have been more than 2 million expulsions of migrants by U.S. Customs and Border Protection at the southern border using Title 42.”

And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders.
2 Thessalonians 2:8-9
It was on March 13, 2013, that Jorge Bergoglio of Argentina was elected Pope, taking the name Francis I. Francis’s election was notable for several reasons. First, his predecessor, Benedict the XVI, had just left office, becoming the first Pope in 600 years to resign.
Second, Bergoglio was the first Pope to take the name Francis, after St. Francis of Assisi. Assisi, according to Pope Francis, “‘was the man of poverty, the man of peace, the man who loves and protects creation, the same created world ‘with which we don’t have such a good relationship.’” This is significant because Francis has aggressively pushed globalism under the aegis of care for the environment. An example of this can be seen in his 2015 encyclical Laudato Siˊ. In this letter, Francis, “commands the nations to confess their collective sins of exploiting the environment with capitalism.” He also noted, “there is an urgent need of a true world political authority,” to ensure conformity with his call for globalist environmentalism.
Third, Francis is the first Jesuit Pope. This is not a small thing, as the Jesuits have a well-earned reputation for dishonesty, subversion, and murder that has gotten the order kicked out of many nations over the centuries and even officially suppressed by Pope Clement XIV. It was Bergoglio’s Jesuit background that caused former Roman Catholic Priest turned Protestant Evangelist Richard Bennett to call Francis the most dangerous Pope we’ve faced in our lifetime.
Many people, both Christian and non-Christian, would agree that the past several years have seen a rise in many dangerous, anti-liberty trends and that those trends seem to be intensifying and not abating. While these trends did not begin with Francis’s pontificate, they have certainly grown stronger since he took office. Is it possible that there is a connection between the pernicious social, political, and economic trends we’ve seen over the past 10 years and the rise of this Jesuit Pope? In my opinion, I believe there is a connection. Let’s look at the evidence.
Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour….
Ephesians 4:25
What’s the difference between a conspiracy theory and the truth? Answer: About six months. Or so runs the joke.
I thought about this when I say the Wall Street Journal Headline (WSJ) “Lab Leak Most Likely Origin of Covid-19 Pandemic, Energy Department Now Says.” The WSJ, as you probably know, is a mainstream publication and not given to promoting “conspiracy theories.” Less than two years ago, one could be banned from Facebook and other social media platforms. But here in February 2023, what was called a “conspiracy theory” not so very long ago, is trumpeted in the headlines of the WSJ.
In my opinion, the headline in the WSJ doesn’t go far enough, for it implies that the Covid scamdemic was a tragic accident. In my view, the Covid virus was not a lab leak, but a lab release. What’s my evidence for saying this? It’s admittedly circumstantial, that is to say, it is indirect. I don’t have a quote from Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates, Anthony Fauci, or some other globalist megalomaniac saying, “release the virus!” And yet, when you consider the amount and quality of the circumstantial evidence supporting the lab release theory, the case, in my view, is compelling.
In retrospect, Jesuit-trained Anthony Fauci’s comment at Jesuit-founded and Jesuit-run Georgetown University is among the most interesting and compelling bits of circumstantial evidence. In a report dated 1/11/2017, just days before Donald Trump took office, Dr. Fauci was quoted as saying “no doubt” Donald Trump would face a surprise infectious disease outbreak while president. How did Fauci know this? It appears he was involved in funding the research on the virus contrary to American law. Did he know the end to which the virus was going to be put?
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.
Exodus 20:16
As much as I try not to let it happen, the constant drumbeat of lies promoted 24/7 from every corner of our civilization gets to me from time to time.
And I really find it is the constant lying about everything all the time by everyone in official positions of power that gets to me the most.
Politicians, CEOs, university presidents and professors, schoolteachers, school administrators, and school boards, federal government officials, state and local officials, legacy media outlets, churches, doctors, hospitals and medical officials, law enforcement, lawyers and judges, entertainers, athletes and professional sports leagues, bankers, and tax-exempt foundations. In short, every institution in America has become a lie factory dedicated to deceiving us all and promoting a false view of the world.
But the Bible commands Christians not to lie and deceive others. In the Ten Commandments, we are told, “Thou shalt not bear false witness.” Paul repeated this idea in his epistle to the Ephesians, writing, “Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour.” The Lord Jesus Christ said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” The devil, Scripture tells us, is the father of lies. And as imitators of Christ, his people are called to walk in the truth. And no lie is of the truth.

Whoso sheddeth man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.
Genesis 9:6
No sooner had the terrible news of yesterday’s mass shooting in Buffalo, NY broken than the usual crowd was out on social and legacy media pushing the usual illogical arguments.
When I say illogical argument, allow me to provide a few examples.
First up on our list is the tweet from noted Jesuit James Martin (you know he’s a Jesuit by the “SJ” listed after his name, SJ standing for “Society of Jesus). Martin calls for prayers, “for the 10 victims of the racist, white nationalist, terrorist shootings.” Christians, of course, are not called to pray for the dead. But this is a teaching of the Roman Church-State.
Martin then goes on to call, “for an end of gun violence, through stricter gun control laws.” This an example of the erroneous approach to criminal justice known as “crime prevention.” The idea is that you regulate – that is, you punish – everyone in advance in hopes of preventing some future criminal action. An extreme form of this unbiblical approach to criminal justice was depicted in the dystopian science fiction movie Minority Report based on a short story by Philip K. Dick. In that movie, a Department of PreCrime would arrest people for crimes that they supposedly were going to commit based upon visions of the future by individuals known as pre-cogs.
But Scripture does not countenance crime prevention. The Scriptural approach to criminal justice is crime punishment, and idea which Martin, at least in part, rejects. In a 2020 article in America Magazine (America is a publication of the Jesuits), Martin approvingly wrote of Pope Francis decision to change the Church’s teaching on capital punishment. According to Martin, in his encyclical “Fratelli Tutti,” Jesuit Pope Francis “placed the full weight of his teaching authority behind this statement: The death penalty is inadmissible, and Catholics should work for its abolition.” Put differently, Pope Francis, James Martin, and the Roman Catholic Church-State (RCCS) generally have committed themselves to subverting justice in all the nations of the world.
Perhaps one motive for the Catholic Church’s desire to subvert criminal justice is the horrifying numbers of murders that historians have laid at the feet of Rome. Scholars have attributed differing numbers of murders to Rome. One of the more conservative figures this author has seen is found in John Dowling’s book The History of Romanism. Writes Dowling, “From the birth of Popery in 606, to the present time, it is estimated by careful and credible historians, that more than Fifty Millions of the human family, have been slaughtered for the crime of heresy by popish persecutors, and average of more than forth thousand religious murders for every year of the existence of Popery” (541-42).
So while on one hand Martin attempts to short-circuit Biblical justice that calls for executing murders, on the other hand, he seeks to punish all Americans by taking away their God-given, Second Amendment guaranteed right to keep and bear arms. That’s very Jesuitical of him indeed. And Marin is hardly the only Jesuit of this opinion. Podcaster Christopher Pinot has discussed on his podcast how the Jesuits have advocated banning even handguns such as 9mm pistols. It seems that their goal is to strip Americans of all their firearms. Now why would they want to do that.
Martin denounces “the evils of white nationalism, white supremacy, and the sin of racism,” but does not tell us what he means by these terms. Perhaps he defines them elsewhere. I don’t know. But given the sloppy way such terms as “white nationalism,” “white supremacy” and “racism” used, given the social justice bent of Martin’s tweet and of the Jesuits generally, and given the Jesuit practice of mental reservation, he may mean something very different by these terms than do his readers.
Idol of Our Lady of Guadalupe on America’s southern border
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Ephesians 5:11
Is it logically possible to hold to Rome’s theology while at the same time rejecting her politics and economics? Many American Roman Catholics, some of whom may be more Protestant in their thinking than they realize, would answer yes.
Writing in his 1999 book Ecclesiastical Megalomania, John Robbins gave the opposite answer. In the Introduction of his book, Robbins noted that Rome’s pronouncements on politics and economics were not, “disjointed statements, but the logical conclusions of premises accepted in Roman theology.” Put another way, if someone accepts Rome’s theology, he logically must also accept Rome’s politics and economics.
Rome’s theology, politics, and economics are part of a “package deal” as Robbins put it, and one does not have the option of following Rome in its theology while at the same time rejecting its political and economic philosophy. “This,” Robbins commented, “flies in the face not only of the claims of the Church-State itself but of reason as well.
I bring up this point as today, December 12, marks the date on which the Church-State celebrates the Feast Day of Our Lady of Guadalupe. According to one article in the America Magazine, a Jesuit publication, Our Lady of Guadalupe (OLG) “remains a cherished part of Mexican national identity.” Another piece in America magazine gives several other titles OLG is known by: Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, La Virgen de Guadalupe, Empress of the Americas, and Our Lady of Tepeyac.
Here’s one interesting item of OLG trivia from one of the America Magazine articles. Juan Diego, the fellow to whom the demon in the form of Mary is said to have first revealed herself, may never have existed. Despite his possible non-existence, he was canonized anyway in 2002, “as part of a strategy to retain indigenous Catholics in Mexico and across Latin America who have been defecting in droves to Protestantism, especially Pentecostalism.”
In one way, this really isn’t surprising. Rome makes up stuff all the time and has done so for centuries. Still, to come right out and say that “there is no hard evidence St. Juan Diego ever existed” while at the same time canonizing him is a bit shocking. Apparently, the Church-State really is running scared that it’s losing its centuries-long grip on “indigenous Catholics in Mexico and across Latin America.”
Cardinal Michael Czerney, SJ blesses a replica of Angels Unawares on Loyola University in Chicago on 9/19/2021. The original is in St. Peter’s Square at the Vatican and was commissioned by Pope Francis. The main purpose of the sculpture appears to be that of guilting Western nations into destroying themselves with welfare migrants, in order to advance the Roman Catholic Church-States goal of world government.
The Roman Catholic Church-State (RCCS) has always hated the United States of America and has relentlessly sought to subvert and destroy it.
Americans in the 19th century understood this well as evidenced by the many books published by American authors during that century warning people of the dangers Rome posed to the American republic.
If you go a Google Books, you can find a remarkable number of books, nearly all of them forgotten, written by American authors in the 19th century on the threat that growing Roman Catholic political power posed to the liberties of the American people. Here are a few examples:
And just as these books and their authors have largely been forgotten by 21st century Americans, so too has the threat of “political Romanism” been forgotten by them.
Today, one rarely hears any complaint by American Protestants about the baleful influence of Roman Catholic economic and political thought on our republic. In his masterful book Ecclesiastical Megalomania, John Robbins wrote about the hesitance of non-Catholic scholars to research and criticize the RCCS.
Perhaps it is the fear of being labeled “anti-Catholic” that has dissuaded non-Catholic scholars from writing about the Church-State – a fear that undermines all scholarship. Scholars, apparently more solicitous of their academic reputations than of learning itself, have shied away from studies such as this. Perhaps there are other, more legitimate, reasons, such as the excessive secrecy of the papacy. But whatever the reason, the Roman institution has not received the attention and scrutiny it deserves from American scholars (10-11).
Rather than opposing the false philosophy and theology of the RCCS, 20th and 21st century Protestants went out of their way to find common ground with the Antichrist papacy and his Babylonian Harlot church. Today, one is more likely to hear putatively Protestant ministers praise the pope as a brother in Christ than to hear them denounce him as Antichrist. Rome hasn’t changed. It’s still a false church, teaching a false gospel of a false Christ who saves no one. But Protestants have changed. And not for the better.
It’s almost as if we have become ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, Justification by Belief Alone, which our forefathers preached boldly but which we seem to fear articulating, or not to even understand.
When Protestants should be rebuking, correcting and refuting the errors of Antichrist – and by Antichrist, I mean the office of the papacy; all popes are Antichrist in that they occupy the office of Antichrist; recent examples of papal Antichrists include Pius XII, of whom we will have more to say shortly, John Paul II, Benedict the XVI and the current papal Antichrist, Francis I – instead they are taking their theological cues from him, offering their congregations little more than warmed-over Romanism with a sprinkling of Evangelical fairy dust to fool the people in the pews into thinking their ideas are somehow Biblical.
But lest we get too far afield in this short post. Let me get to the main point for today, which is to talk about Rome’s bogus World Day of Migrants and Refugees (WDMF).
Jesuits Push Mass Migration While America’s Southern Border Burns Down
Can anything good come from Chicago? Although I’m sure there are Christians in Chicago, that city has a remarkable penchant for being ground zero for some of the most anti-American ideas and movements one can find.
Chicago, (Sept. 20, 2021) – In observance of National Migration Week, Sept. 20 – 26, 2021, Archdiocese of Chicago parishes and its Immigration Ministry will host events celebrating Chicagoland’s diverse Catholic community. This year’s National Migration Week theme is “Towards an Ever Wider ‘We’.”
“The Holy Father’s theme of widening the ‘we’ comes at a time when so many migrants and refugees are seeking humanitarian aid, protections and resettlements from violence, war, repeated natural disasters and climate change-induced droughts and famine during a surging global pandemic,” said Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, archbishop of Chicago. “As he emphasizes in his encyclical letter Fratelli Tutti, we should think no longer in terms of ‘them’ and ‘those,’ but only as ‘us’. Our Church’s universality calls us to cultivate and celebrate community and diversity and to be companions for those seeking safe havens.”
This is a jaw-dropping headline. At a time when America is in the throes of perhaps the worst migrant crisis in our history, a crisis deliberately caused by our illegitimate, Roman Catholic president Joe Biden, the Archdiocese of Chicago wants to celebrate the very thing the RCCS is using to burn down America as if the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 were something the Archdiocese sees as a model for the whole country.
Worth noting is that the Angels Unawares statue blessed by the Jesuit Cardinal is a replica of a statue commissioned by Antichrist Pope Francis in 2019. As the story notes, “It’s the first sculpture added to the Vatican’s famed St. Peter’s Square in 400 years.”
Now let’s ask a question, is there a connection between the migrant crisis on America’s southern border, the WDMF, and the in-your-face celebration of the WDMF by the Archdiocese of Chicago. The answer is, I am persuaded, yes.
Earlier in this post, I mentioned Pope Pius XII. This Antichrist, subject of the book Hitler’s Pope – not many people today are aware of this, but the Nazi Party was a principally a Roman Catholic movement; Hitler himself served as an acolyte in the Roman Catholic Church and attended Dominican high school, where he was first introduced to the Swastika – was the author of the 1952 Apostolic Constitution Exsul Familia (the Emigree Family), which has served ever since as Rome’s template for promoting mass, welfare migration for the purpose of subverting nation-states, strengthening the RCCS, and ushering in Rome’s dream of world government.
That Exsul Familia is a tissue of nonsense doesn’t seem to matter. It gives the appearance of piety, and that’s enough to persuade many people, both inside and outside the RCCS of the document’s righteousness. In short, the argument of Exsul Familia is that since Joseph was warned in a dream to take Jesus and Mary and flee to Egypt to get away from the murderous King Herod, it’s okay for migrants from Haiti to barge into America and demand taxpayers pick up the tab for their room, board and anything else they may happen to want.
There are several obvious objections to this line of reasoning. First, when Joseph took his family to Egypt, he was fleeing to another province of the Roman Empire, not to a foreign country. Second, the Scriptures remain silent as to how the family was supported. There was no welfare state, so either they supported themselves or perhaps were taken in by the Jewish community living in Egypt. Third, the scale of the migration is entirely different. Where in the New Testament we see a family of three fleeing to Egypt, today we’re talking about thousands, hundreds of thousands or more. A more appropriate example of mass migration in the Bible is the Exodus. And in the history of the Exodus, we see that Moses was extremely careful not to impose upon the land and resources of established nations.
In Numbers 20 we read,
Now Moses sent messengers from Kadesh to the king of Edom…We will not pass through fields or vineyards, nor will we drink water from wells; we will go along the King’s Highway; we will not turn aside to the right hand or to the left until we have passed through your territory.
Unlike the RCCS and its cardinals, bishops, priests, and nuns, Moses respected the property of others and did not see it as or as Israel’s right to barge into another nation’s territory and take their stuff. That would be stealing. And stealing is prohibited in the Ten Commandments.
But Rome constantly and unctuously lectures Americans and the citizens of other Western nations that they have an altruistic moral duty to destroy their countries on behalf of migrants when no such duty exists.
Contrary to the false economics of Rome, need is not only not the sole moral criterion of ownership, but it is not a criterion at all. The American people owe nothing, nada, zip, zilch to Haitians. Now, if Christians wish out to help Haitians by giving their own time and money in the name of Jesus Christ – Christian charity is always done in the name of Jesus Christ, see Matthew 10:42 – that’s one thing. But Rome has contempt, as do socialists of all stripes, for private charity. Rome believes in government welfare, where the civil government, contrary to the Bible and to the Constitution, steals money from the American people and lavishes it on foreign migrants, many if not most of whom are in this country contrary to American law.
Rome’s WDMR is a bogus attempt to guilt the wealthy nations of the West into surrendering their sovereignty due to an imagined duty to give their wealth to foreigners when no such duty exists. This canard is a lie of Antichrist in an attempt to cover his lust for world power and dominion with a veneer of pseudo-Christion ethics.
Joe Biden, Servant of Antichrist
It is no accident that America’s greatest migrant crisis is happening on Joe Biden’s watch. Joe Biden, America’s second Roman Catholic president appears to be enthusiastically carrying out the destruction of the United States by means of mass migration and doing so at the behest of Antichrist Pope Francis.
But as bad as Joe Biden is, he still isn’t going far enough for the taste of the of Rome’s many American migration madmen.
In a letter signed by 164 Catholic organizations – 164! – many in the RCCS expressed their outrage that Biden was not moving fast enough to destroy America as they think he should. They think it’s a “travesty” that Biden is summarily deporting people from nations who have a high incidence of disease using Title 42 to do so. Apparently, these treasonous organizations of the RCCS have no problem exposing Americans to communicable diseases so long as they can oversee the importation of more Romanists and other non-Christian, illegal migrants into America. It’s almost as if they’re paraphrasing King Jehu of Israel and saying, “Joe Biden serves Antichrist a little, but we shall serve him much!”
Perhaps Joe Biden’s concession to immigration sanity is the political nature of his position. Things have gotten so bad that on the immigration issue that even people who normally don’t pay much attention to politics are starting to wake up to the fact that the southern border is getting out of hand. On the other hand, the immigration nutjobs in the 164 treasonous Roman Catholic organizations have no public to answer to and care not a whit what the public thinks of them.
Joe Biden, the people associated with these 164 organizations, and anyone who supports their efforts, is, in the opinion of this author, committing treason against the United States of America and is become a domestic enemy of our nation of the sort the Constitution speaks of.
19th century American Protestants would in no way be surprised by this turn of events. This is the very thing they warned about, and it is coming to pass in our generation.
Way back in 1884, Dr. Samuel D. Burchard called the Democrats “the party whose antecedents have been rum, Romanism, and rebellion.” He was excoriated for saying so, which goes to show that large parts of supposedly Protestant America had already fallen under the sway of the Roman Harlot in his day. And what was true in 1884 is even more true today.
The alarm bells are going off. Our nation is burning down due to the predations of Antichrist and his Mother of Harlots Church. Are there enough Christian men left to put out the fire?
