Donald Sanborn examines the 50th anniversary of the closing of the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II) and critically assesses its impact on the Roman Catholic Church. He argues that Vatican II introduced condemned doctrines contrary to the Church’s traditional dogma, marking the beginning of a profound crisis rooted in modernism. Over the past five decades, this crisis has manifested as a great apostasy, predicted in scripture, characterized by a loss of love for the truth and an embrace of error, particularly exemplified by the Novus Ordo Mass and modernist reforms. \nBp. Sanborn outlines five key principles: \nthe Church’s infallibility and continuity in doctrine; \nthe biblical prophecy of a great apostasy and the coming of the Antichrist; \nthe historical infiltration of the Church by enemies intent on transforming it from within; \nthe Church’s demonstrated divine assistance through doctrinal continuity despite attacks; and finally, \nthe necessity of divine grace for any restoration or solution. \n\nBp. Sanborn warns against compromising with modernist errors and emphasizes the duty of faithful Catholics to reject the Vatican II apostasy uncompromisingly. Despite widespread apostasy, a faithful remnant remains, guided by grace, who recognize the discontinuity between pre- and post-Vatican II teachings. The homily concludes with a call for steadfastness in faith, likening the Church’s resilience to the immune system’s rejection of foreign invaders, and underscores hope in God’s providence and timing for the Church’s ultimate restoration or final judgment.\n\nHighlights\nVatican II promulgated doctrines contradictory to traditional Catholic dogma, initiating a crisis of modernism within the Church.\nScripture predicts a “great apostasy” and the coming of the Antichrist before the end of the world, which the current era appears to fulfill.\nThe Church’s divine assistance ensures continuity of essential doctrine despite internal and external attacks.\nEnemies...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/04tBMdKlr1uv707lWt1hcGT2DU5lurWQ9VbuxkKdZe4/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9iNmQw/MzlmNzQzOTQwYzc4/MWViZjEzZWU5ZDg0/MzcxNi5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
