Traitors’ Last Ditch Effort in Church and State

By Father David Nix|2025-02-20T12:47:19+00:00February 20th, 2025|Theology|

I have to admit I didn't have it in my bingo cards that 2025 was going to be the big year when hundreds of thousands of mainstream Catholics wake up to the corruption that a few of us have known about for years in certain Catholic organizations. I'm quite thrilled to see how many Catholics are now standing up against the imposters in Rome, the corruption of the USCCB and the criminal activity of Catholic Charities that some of us have been sounding the alarm about for years. (Notice I wrote that above-linked article exposing "Catholic Charities" of Galveston-Houston last year before Trump was even in power to defund that [...]

He said therefore to them again: "Peace be to you. As the Father hath sent Me, I also send you." When He had said this, He breathed on them; and He said to them: "Receive ye the Holy Ghost. Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained."—St. John 20:21-23. Most of my articles are directed to Catholic laity, but this is one of the rare ones where I am writing to other priests. The only message of this article is: Please add more confession times. If you do, the penitents will come. In rural areas, it might take some penance [...]

p/c New Liturgical Movement, NBC. The priest sunders with unbloody cut the body and blood of the Lord, using his voice as a sword.—St. Gregory Nazianzen. The above is a quote from an Eastern Church Father (recognized as a saint by both the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Christians.) St. Gregory in that quote means that the dual consecration at Mass (the bread becoming the body and the wine becoming the blood) effects a mystical and unbloody separation of the body and blood. This is because it happens in two separate sets of consecration. In a mystical way, this separation of blood from body somehow comprises the fact that [...]

Every angel saw nearly all of creation during its creation in what was called the "first instance" (not found in the same time frame as us on earth.) During the "second instance," each angel had the chance to obey God or disobey Him through some act of sacrifice of its will in regards to its specific mission (where it stayed an angel or became a demon.) Then, the "third instance" was immediate reward with the beatific vision (if the angel obeyed) or damnation into hell where its will is locked into rebellion against God forever. There is a talk by the exorcist Fr. Ripperger titled Our Lady of Sorrows and [...]

p/c Jeffrey Bruno For the longest time, I believed the Right could reason with the Left with evidence on the many incendiary issues lighting up Church and State over the last decade. Because I had two conversions (from left to neo-con, and then neo-con to trad as I recounted in this video here) I believed everyone else had a desire to seek the truth as I did. "If the evidence were simply presented in charity," I reasoned in regard to any dozen topics of Church and State, "then many more people would repent of their former errors and quickly convert." I actually still think that is true, but there's [...]

Many new traditionalists may be ignorant of the fact that the first heretics excommunicated by Pope St. Pius X were heretics in their denial on the inerrancy of Sacred Scripture. For instance, Pope St. Pius X excommunicated the French seminary professor, Fr. Loisy, for denying the supernatural aspects of the Bible. Notice that Fr. Loisy was not excommunicated for liturgical issues or even moral issues, but denying the Bible. This makes sense the initial heretics of modernism doubted Scripture, for Satan himself first said "Did God really say...?" Later in the 20th century, we saw the heresies of Fr. Loisy and others mushroom out into the heresy of modernism that [...]

Bishop Williamson was born Richard Nelson Williamson on 8 March 1940. A convert to the Catholic faith, he was consecrated a bishop by Archbishop Lefebvre in 1988. He fell asleep in the Lord at 23:23h GMT last night on 29 January 2025. I had the honor of staying with him in the UK two years ago. Also, I interviewed him on my channel just a few months ago here. Bp. Williamson drew a brilliant outline connecting Protestantism to modernism via naturalism, rationalism, ecumenism and even communism as seen below. Always standing against the revolution within the Church, Bp. Williamson was a living St. Athansius who stood for true, orthodox and [...]

The above picture is Venezuelan criminals known to the Aurora, CO police department. There are thousands of Venezuelan immigrants near my hermitage in Aurora, CO. I have spoken to and helped some of them seeking a better life for their families. (I asked one in Spanish how he crossed the border and he simply admitted: "I walked across it.") But other Venezuelans who came to my town took over a building where they raped and killed people to such an extent that even the Aurora police were unable to enter it this last summer. A few of these dangerous gangsters are seen in the above picture. When the office of [...]

Catholicism Is “the Eternal Gospel.”

By Father David Nix|2025-01-23T17:59:45+00:00January 23rd, 2025|Theology|

Recently, while reading the Book of the Apocalypse (the last book in the Bible frequently called "Revelation" by Protestants) I noticed the astonishing Greek words εὐαγγέλιον αἰώνιον (Apo 14:6) translated into the Latin as evangelium aeternum meaning "The Eternal Gospel" in English. Upon reading that, I realized it was the very best definition of Catholicism, namely, the Eternal Gospel precisely because Divine Revelation cannot change (Mal 3:6.) If you look up catholic in a dictionary, you will find the word universal as one of the main definitions of the word. This refers to catholic in general. (Notice, I did not capitalize the word catholic in the two previous sentences.) Thus, [...]

“Once a Catholic Always a Catholic”? Not Necessarily.

Many Catholics casually say the following line to ex-Catholics in order to get them back into a Church building: "Once a Catholic, always a Catholic." It sounds welcoming, but it's theologically wrong. This is because the Magisterium of the Catholic Church and the Church Fathers, St. Thomas Aquinas and the Popes all taught: A bad Catholic never ceases to be a Catholic, provided his failure be not faith-based but morality-based (and also provided those moral failures be not excommunicable.) On the other hand, a baptized person who has purposely rejected even one tenet of the traditional Catholic faith is a heretic who is no longer Catholic. Furthermore, a baptized person [...]
