Bishop Strickland’s Scathing Rebuke of Modernist Bishops

Bishop Joseph Strickland

Dear Faithful Catholics,

These words came to me after awakening this morning. They are words I should have said to break the silence after my intervention at the USCCB meeting. I say them now to Pope Leo, to the bishops and to all who claim to be disciples of Jesus Christ.

“How long will you halt between two masters? If you believe Christ is Lord, then follow Him! If the world is your master, then go to it! But no longer profane His sanctuary while you betray the Cross!”

Bishops, STOP with the games! STOP with the lies. STOP turning a blind eye to the little ones! A massive stockpile of millstones is ready to be distributed among you. One for Pope Leo, a truck load for the Curia in the Vatican, and cargo ships full for the vast majority of today’s successors of the Apostles.

How dare I speak these words, how dare I judge these princes of the Church? No brothers, HOW DARE YOU inflict harm on the little ones over and over again??

You harm the little ones when you make the Sacred Sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Holy Mass, a bauble, a bargaining chip for your worldly conniving, a platform for spewing heresy and playing footsie with the world.

You harm the little ones when you welcome couples caught up in sin, flaunting their sad disordered lives and instead of calling them to repentance in Jesus Christ you have a chat about silly things and are acclaimed for being so kind. You even welcome them into the sacred sanctuary and drape a veil of blessing over the dung of their sin.

You harm the little ones when you spend hours in meetings quibbling over this word or that phrase when the world is guiding them deeper into darkness and despair. The little ones cry, “Where is hope” and they are ignored.

You harm the little ones when you promote lawlessness and turn a blind eye to the rapes, the murders and the attacks of nefarious criminals who waltz across open borders. Some of the little ones are caught up in these mass migrations and trampled upon as they seek a better life. Some of the little ones find their homes and towns invaded as shepherds say “we must welcome the stranger” and then allow marauders and criminals free rein.

We must all seek Jesus Christ as Lord and hear His call to repentance. We must say no to the depravities of the world and bring the light of truth to all the dark corners of the world. We must say no to the lawlessness that turns a blind eye to sin. We must believe that Jesus Christ is Lord.

We must be shepherds.
