God Hates Revolution.

May Our Lady, the Immaculate Queen of heaven, together with St. Joseph, pray for us! Recently, we celebrated the anniversary of the martyrdom of Balthasar Francisco and Companions, who were burnt at the stake by the British on 4 July 1704, about six miles east of Tallahassee. After a battle, the British gave an ultimatum to those who they had captured, renounce the Catholic faith or be burnt at the stake. Two Spaniards, Don Balthasar Francisco and Don Pedro Marmolejo, along with fifteen Indian warriors, chose to remain faithful to the Catholic faith. This event however, sits in the shadow of the events of 1775. When the Continental Congress's signed the Declaration of Independence, creating the first solely secular country in the history of the world. Yet, today on the 250th anniversary of this independence, America seems more lost, more controlled, and more degenerate than ever before.
The errors of Russia created this republic.
What was the first sin of Russia? It was not communism nor atheism but schism. Though not the first sect to do so, the Greeks declared independence from Rome and therefore from the Gospel teachings. “I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hellshall not prevail against it. And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 16: 18-19).
King Henry XIII, followed suit in 1534, by similarly declaring independence from Rome and fostering an environment of error in England. Along these men full of erroneous opinions was John Locke, who was a great inspiration to the Thomas Jefferson and the Founding Fathers. Locke, who was a liberal philosopher, was practically quoted verbatim in the declaration. Among Locke’s many, many ridiculous opinions, was also separation of Church and state. This condemned idea also found its way into the founding of the first American republic. Here we see why our nation has become such a refuge of degeneracy, paganism, and communism. It is the domino effect. When own declared independence from the Holy Catholic Church, soon after they will became infected with error and declare independence from God Himself. Venerable Pope Pius XII comes to my aid: “At the head of the road which leads to the spiritual and moral bankruptcy of the present day stand the nefarious efforts of not a few to dethrone Christ; the abandonment of the law of truth which He proclaimed and of the law of love which is the life breath of His Kingdom.” Pope Pius XII continues in the same encyclical in another place: “No defense of Christianity could be more effective than the present straits. From the immense vortex of error and anti-Christian movements there has come forth a crop of such poignant disasters as to constitute a condemnation surpassing in its conclusiveness any merely theoretical refutation.” In other words, our current situation in our nation and in our world, comes from first the dethroning of Christ, his laws and from declaring independence from the Holy Catholic Church. Pope Pius XII concurs: “The denial of the fundamentals of morality had its origin, in Europe, in the abandonment of that Christian teaching of which the Chair of Peter is the depository and exponent. That teaching had once given spiritual cohesion to a Europe which, educated, ennobled and civilized by the Cross, had reached such a degree of civil progress as to become the teacher of other peoples, of other continents. But, cut off from the infallible teaching authority of the Church, not a few separated brethren have gone so far as to overthrow the central dogma of Christianity, the Divinity of the Savior, and have hastened thereby the progress of spiritual decay.”
The revolution hates God.
Revolutions are rarely bottom-up uprisings. Almost never are successful revolutions groups of “we the people” rising up against some tyrant. The truth is most revolutions come from a few elites. The same Pope Pius XII once again comes to my aid in identifying “another error no less pernicious to the well-being of the nations and to the prosperity of that great human society which gathers together and embraces within its confines all races.” Pope Pius XII continues: “It is the error contained in those ideas which do not hesitate to divorce civil authority from every kind of dependence upon the Supreme Being — First Source and absolute Master of man and of society — and from every restraint of a Higher Law derived from God as from its First Source. Thus they accord the civil authority an unrestricted field of action that is at the mercy of the changeful tide of human will, or of the dictates of casual historical claims, and of the interests of a few.” If only we knew of group of few men who worked to divorce God from society? Pope Leo XIII explains: “13. In those matters which regard religion let it be seen how the sect of the Freemasons acts, especially where it is more free to act without restraint, and then let any one judge whether in fact it does not wish to carry out the policy of the naturalists. By a long and persevering labor, they endeavor to bring about this result — namely, that the teaching office and authority of the Church may become of no account in the civil State; and for this same reason they declare to the people and contend that Church and State ought to be altogether disunited. By this means they reject from the laws and from the commonwealth the wholesome influence of the Catholic religion; and they consequently imagine that States ought to be constituted without any regard for the laws and precepts of the Church.” No wonder all these revolutions, from the United States to France, stripped the Church of her authority as much as they could and referees to almighty God as little as possible. Most of the leading figures of the US revolution 1776, were Freemasons. Chief among them George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, and Paul Revere. In fact, Over 41% of old Washington's generals were Freemasons, including French Marquis de Lafayette and Prussian Baron von Steuben.
This suspicious Freemasonic involvement in the US revolution, was also found in the French Revolution, which killed over 3,000 bishops, priests, and religious.
This revolution of course spread with the help of Freemasons to destroy Christian civilization, across Europe and eventually the world. “Now, the masonic sect produces fruits that are pernicious and of the bitterest savour. For, from what We have above most clearly shown, that which is their ultimate purpose forces itself into view - namely, the utter overthrow of that whole religious and political order of the world which the Christian teaching has produced, and the substitution of a new state of things in accordance with their ideas, of which the foundations and laws shall be drawn from mere naturalism.” No wonder, our founding father Thomas Jefferson said when referring to the Mexican revolution: “History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance, of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes." These revolutions created godless republics, governments and societies. Institutions devoid entirely of God. This is why these revolutionary republics, like the one we live in, are falling apart and are being overtaken by their enemies. “And every one that heareth these my words, and doth them not, shall be like a foolish man that built his house upon the sand, 27 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and they beat upon that house, and it fell, and great was the fall thereof” (Mathew 7:26-28).
Why no Catholic can ever be a Revolutionary.
Through out the many, many Freemasons revolutions which occurred in the past 250 years, there have always been brave Catholics who resisted the revolution. As Catholics, we know revolution is wrong, it’s an imitation of the devil. Yet, especially these past revolutions which fought to strip God of His rights and destroy the civilization that He directly wills. From the Vendee in France, to the Sanfedesti in Italy, to the Carlists in Spain and even the Royalist forces here in Florida which defended her valiantly from 1781 until 1821. We should honor these men today, who imitated St. Michael in defending Christian society against the godless Revolution. “Because it is like the sin of witchcraft, to rebel” (1 Samuel 15:24). Revolutions are disguising to God, especially when they are against Him, His Church, and His society. To end this article, and in a sense to open this series on the liberal revolutions that rule our world, I will leave off with this quote by our dear patron, St. Anthony Maria Claret. “'The only reason why society is perishing is because it has refused to hear the word of the Church, which is the Word of Life, the Word of GOD."
Prayer for the conversion of the United States.
O Mary, Mother of Mercy and Refuge of sinners, we beseech thee, be pleased to look with pitiful eyes upon poor heretics and schismatics. Thou who art the Seat of Wisdom, enlighten the minds that are miserably enfolded in the darkness of ignorance and sin, that they may clearly know that the Holy Catholic and Apostolic Roman Church is the one true Church of Jesus Christ, outside of which neither holiness nor salvation can be found. Finish the work of their conversion by obtaining for them the grace to accept all the truths of our Holy Faith, and to submit themselves to the Supreme Roman Pontiff, the Vicar of Jesus Christ on earth; that so, being united with us in the sweet chains of Divine charity, there may soon be one only fold under the same one Shepherd; and may we all, O Glorious Virgin, sing forever with exultation: Rejoice, O Virgin Mary, thou only hast destroyed all heresies in the whole world. Amen.
