Thus says the Lord, the Holy One of Israel: 19 “People of Zion, who dwell in Jerusalem, you will have no reason to weep: he will be moved at the sound of your cry; as soon as he hears you, he will answer you. 20 The Lord will surely give you the bread of affliction and the water of affliction; your teacher will no longer depart from you; your eyes will see him, 21 and your ears will hear a word of warning behind you: ‘This is the way for all; walk in it,’ without turning to the right or to the left. 23 He will give you rain for the seed you have sown in the ground, and the fruit of the ground will be abundant and rich; in that day your flock will graze in vast pastures, 24 your oxen and the animals that till the ground will eat salted fodder, cleaned with shovel …More
DECEMBER 7 2025 THE GOSPEL breski1 Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 3,1-12. John the Baptist appeared, preaching in the desert of Judea (and) saying, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!" It was of him that the prophet Isaiah had spoken when he said: "A voice of one crying out in the desert, 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.'" John wore clothing made of camel's hair and had a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey. At that time Jerusalem, all Judea, and the whole region around the Jordan were going out to him and were being baptized by him in the Jordan River as they acknowledged their sins. When he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, "You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Produce good fruit as evidence of your repentance. And do not presume to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our father.' For I tell you, God can raise up children …More
On 1 December, Pope Leo XIV proclaimed at Martyrs’ Square in Beirut, Lebanon, that "every bell and every adhān" is united "into a single hymn" to "the one God". The adhān is the Islamic call to prayer performed by a muezzin. The 'one God' professed by Muslims rejects both the Trinity and the Incarnation. The two key phrases of Pope Leo XIV during the inter-religious meeting were: "… minarets and church bell towers stand side by side, yet both reach skyward, testifies to the enduring faith of this Land and the steadfast devotion of its people to the one God." "Here in this beloved land, may every bell toll, every adhān, every call to prayer blend into a single, soaring hymn." #newsTwkidoagja
Being in a Brotherhood with Muslims also benefits the One World Leadership and others in partaking of the sinful actions of child molestation: Yes, some Muslim religious groups in Lebanon permit the marriage of individuals considered children under international standards (under 18 years old), and the practice does occur, particularly among vulnerable populations . Lebanon does not have a single national law for a minimum marriage age. Instead, personal status issues, including marriage age, are governed by the laws of the country's 18 recognized religious sects. The minimum ages for marriage for girls as set by some of the religious authorities are as follows: Shiite Muslims: The authorities do not allow marriage before the age of 15 (or puberty). Sunni Muslims: The minimum age is 18 for boys and 17 for girls. Catholics: The minimum age is 16 for boys and 14 for girls. Greek Orthodox: The minimum age is 18 for both boys and girls. Jewish: The minimum age is 18 for boys and 12.5 for girls …More

The wicked anti-Catholic and homosexual activist Jorge Bergoglio has bequeathed money to the apostate Argentinian nun Lucía Caram, who promotes homosexuality, rebels against God's natural laws, and denies all Catholic doctrine. 2 Corinthians 11:13-16 Such people are false apostles, dishonest workers who masquerade as apostles of Christ. And no wonder! Even Satan masquerades as an angel of light. Therefore, it should not be considered unusual that his servants also disguise themselves as ministers of righteousness. Their end will be appropriate to their deeds.
Pope Francis, who died in April 2025, set aside funds in his will for a humanitarian project run by Dominican sister Lucía Caram, she said in remarks reported by Spanish media. According to Sister Caram, the funds were explicitly intended to support medical care in war-affected areas of Ukraine, in particular the purchase of ambulances. The exact amount designated in the pope’s will has not been disclosed. Sister Caram said that Francis had expressed support for her work on several occasions: “I never imagined it would come in this form.” Born in Argentina, Sister Caram has lived in Spain for about thirty years. She became widely known for her homosexual activism. She stated that Our Lady was “not a virgin”, supported homosexual "marriages" and said that homosexual sins are “love.” In 2023, she acknowledged that Francis is a friend of active homosexuals and transvestites, and claimed that he had recently “appointed a homosexual as prefect of a very important Vatican dicastery,” …More
Enoch Burke in chains on his way to prison. Screengrab youtube Irish teacher Enoch Burke was arrested and jailed in November 2025. He was charged with contempt of court, and authorities insist this has nothing to do with his refusal to use a transgender student’s preferred pronouns. Technically, they are correct that his imprisonment stems from repeated violations of a court order barring him from returning to the school during his suspension. However, it is also true that the entire case began with his refusal to give in to transgender ideology, which led to his suspension in the first place. Burke was a teacher at Wilson’s Hospital School in County Westmeath, Ireland. In 2022 the school instructed staff to refer to a transgender student by a new name and the “they/them” pronoun, and Burke refused to comply. After he publicly objected at a school event and confronted school leadership, he was suspended pending disciplinary proceedings. The school then obtained a court injunction …

No doubt, if one needs to choose between the two. G.K. Chesterton and Hillaire Belloc addressed the problems of both by proposing "Distributism" as an alternative to resolve them. If our current Church leaders and political entities were not so infected by Marxist errors, they would at least give "Distributism" some thought.
Saint Sabas the Sanctified |Founder of Holy Monasteries | Feast Day: December 5 | Catechism for Kids Saint Sabas the Sanctified (439–532 AD) was one of the greatest early monks of the Church and a major leader of Eastern Christian monasticism. Born in Cappadocia (modern-day Turkey), he entered monastic life as a young boy and grew into a wise, peaceful, and deeply holy man. Saint Sabas travelled to Palestine and founded several monasteries, including the famous Great Lavra of Saint Sabas (Mar Saba) in the Kidron Valley.

He also defended the true teachings of the Church during times of confusion and helped bring peace …More

ĐⱤØ₲Ø @KAGdrogo MASSIVE: Venezuelan Military Intelligence whistleblower just confirmed the CIA outsources election rigging technology like Smartmatic from Venezuela. This is the main reason warships are surrounding Venezuela right now, aside from narco trafficking. It’s not about oil or Israel. “My name is Hugo Carvajal Barrios. For many years, I was a high ranking member of the Venezuelan regime. I was a three-star general trusted by both Hugo Chavez and Nicolás Maduro and served as Director of Military Intelligence and a Deputy in the National Assembly. Today, I sit in an American prison because I voluntarily plead guity to the crimes charged against me: a narco-terrorism conspiracy. …Smartmatic was born as an electoral tool of the Venezuelan regime…I know this because I placed the head of IT of the National Electoral Council (CNE) in his position, and he reported directly to me. The Smartmatic system can be altered-this is a fact. This technology was later exported abroad, …More
It's about the oil. Trump and others came right out and said it. There are no drug boats. Proven they were fishing boats. Notice how Trump is now changing his tune mocking their oil now? And also lied about how they are now buying oil from Venezuela? "WE HAVE BEEN BUYING OIL FROM THEM FOR A VERY LONG TIME! Doesn't matter, Venezuela has more oil than any other country. That's what they want and what they are after. They will lie and kill and steal to get what they want. And say whatever it is people want to hear and to believe. Don't believe this person. It's the oil. And also proven? Not a narco country! All propaganda as usual.
2nd Sunday of Advent – A - Second Reading - Romans 15:4–9 - Christ saves everyone Letter to the Romans 15,4-9. Brothers and sisters: Whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God. For I say that Christ became a minister of the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, to confirm the promises to the patriarchs, but so that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written: "Therefore, I will praise you among the Gentiles and sing praises to your name." Denice May
Three hundred and fifty-five years. That was the duration of time that the Hudson’s Bay Company existed prior to the beginning of its liquidation in March of this year. Founded in 1670 by Royal Charter of King Charles II, it is rather poetic that – over 300 years later – it would be dissolved under King Charles III. The history of the Hudson’s Bay Company and the history of Canada are nigh inseparable. In line with the mercantilist policy throughout the remainder of the British Empire, the HBC effectively ruled Rupert’s Land. This was akin to the East India Company in the Subcontinent, and the British South Africa Company in Rhodesia. As with all institutions of culture and identity in this country, the Hudson’s Bay Company had been fundamentally subverted, right under all of our noses. In an article published back in April, Jeffery Vacante of the Toronto Star pointed out that the liquidation of the Hudson’s Bay Company came at a very convenient time. Especially so for its American…
'The fourth torment that they have is the fire. This fire burns and does not consume, for the being of the soul cannot be consumed, because it is not a material thing that fire can consume. But I, by Divine justice, have permitted the fire to burn them with torments, so that it torments them, without consuming them, with the greatest pains in diverse ways according to the diversity of their sins, to some more, and to some less, according to the gravity of their fault.'
[Saint Catherine of Siena /Caterina di Benincasa/; XIV-XV Century AD; Siena, Republic of Siena/Rome, Papal States; aged 33; Spiritual Writer; Mystic; Virgin; Doctor of the Church] “Of the four principal torments of the damned, from which follow all the others ; and particularly of the foulness of the Devil. " My daughter, the tongue is not sufficient to narrate the pain of these poor souls. As there are three principal vices, namely : self - love, whence proceeds the second, that is love of reputation, whence proceeds the third, that is pride, with injustice and cruelty, and with other filthiness and iniquitous sins, that follow upon these. So I say to thee, that in Hell, the souls have four principal torments, out of which proceed all the other torments. The first is, that they see themselves deprived of the vision of Me, which is such pain to them, that, were it possible, they would rather choose the fire, and the tortures and torments, and to see Me, than to be without the torments …More
The apostate and gay activist Robert Prevost appoints the gay activist Salvador González Morales as "bishop" of the synodal sect run by anti-Catholic homosexuals.
Today, Pope Leo XIV has appointed Monsignor Salvador González Morales as the new Bishop of the Diocese of Cancún-Chetumal, Mexico. In February 2019, Francis had appointed him Auxiliary Bishop of the Archdiocese of Mexico City. He also served as Vicar General of the Archdiocese. The Case of Rev. Olvera Delgadillo In June 2022, the Catholic priest Juan de Dios Olvera Delgadillo was temporarily suspended after signing the declaration Mater Veritatis Salutaris, which criticized certain teachings of Pope Francis on adultery and homosexuality. The unjust punishment was imposed by the vicar general, Monsignor González Morales. In a 2023 follow-up interview, Rev. Olvera Delgadillo added that he had been removed from his post at the Basilica of Guadalupe, yet has received neither a formal canonical sentence nor proper due process. Celebration of a Homosexual Eucharist In October 2024, Monsignor González Morales presided over a homosexual Eucharist (pictured). According to a report from the …More
China Seeks Tighter Grip on Online Content: Chinese President Xi Jinping used the Politburo’s 23rd study session on November 28 to declare AI a “support condition” for regime survival. He told security organs to go beyond keyword filtering by using AI to map sentiment trends, identify “risk clusters,” and prevent dissent before it emerges. He ordered a crackdown on influencers, saying platform algorithms that promote viral material must be brought under tighter political control. Xi also called for expanding China’s global influence online by strengthening international communication platforms and participating in international rule-making.
In an “immensely important” speech, the CCP leader moved China to a new stage of universal digital control. by Hu Zimo Xi Jinping speaks at the 23rd collective study session. Screenshot. On November 28, the Chinese Communist Party’s Politburo gathered for its 23rd collective study session, ostensibly to discuss “strengthening the governance of the internet ecosystem.” The official readout, broadcast by CCTV, was couched in the familiar jargon of “order,” “guidance,” and “international cooperation.” Yet beneath the bureaucratic phrasing lies a chilling directive: the Party has elevated artificial intelligence from a frontier industry to a “support condition” for regime survival. Leading Indian observer of China’s cyber-repression Manoj Kewalramani called Xi’s speech “immensely important.” The Politburo’s 23rd collective study session on November 28 was a blueprint for the next phase of digital authoritarianism in China. Xi Jinping’s remarks revealed a comprehensive strategy …
