Sacrilege and Clerical Negligence Have Erased the Awareness of Christ’s Real Presence

A major dirge of our time is that the wide body of the Catholic Church has lost the awareness of Christ’s supernatural presence in his sanctuary. A 2019 survey revealed that 70 percent of America’s Catholics no longer believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.

A major reason for this is that the clergy allow the Church to be used for all manner of festive and secular activity. Humanist preaching and socializing in Church have caused the faithful to forget that the Church is the House of God wherein dwells the full Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Christ. The Church is consecrated to God and set aside solely for the worship of God, which means it is not to be used for other things.

Sorrowfully, the clergy now use the Church for things not connected with religion and the salvation of souls. Clergy and laity now see the Church as their own little convention center to engage in busy-body activity. Churches are used for theatric plays, concerts, kiddie-balloon Masses, guitar liturgy, and heresy talks, while the priests harp on small-minded political issues like climate action, ecology, open borders, immigration, interreligious unity, and LGBTQ inclusion. 

Profanation

What is worse is that there are clergy who involve themselves in the occult. In July 2022, Pope Francis traveled all the way to Canada to engage in pagan rituals in apology for Catholicism and on the weekend of September 6-7 Pope Leo went so far as to invite 1200 homosexual activists to overrun and use the Vatican for the glorification of their lewd cause. This unprecedented stunt was carried out under the banner of compassion, but where is the compassion for the many who will be eternally banished because of this abomination?

Hereby, two major crimes against faith were committed. The Church not only was desecrated but Catholics everywhere were seduced into thinking that the Catholic Church now approves and celebrates homosexuality. “Woe to the world because of scandals!” (Mt. 18:7) 

Hollywood Comes to the Vatican

And now the latest scandal. The Vatican has announced that Pope Leo will be holding a special audience at the Vatican's Apostolic Palace on November 15 to be attended by dozens of Hollywood stars and film makers including Cate Blanchett, Chris Pine, Viggo Mortensen, Alison Brie, and Monica Bellucci. Hollywood elites are among the key culprits that are polluting society yet Leo “has expressed his desire to deepen dialogue with the world of Cinema” hoping this will help further “the mission of the Church and the promotion of human values,” the Vatican said in a statement.

Here again we see the secular world overrunning the Church for the advance of worldly values and entertainment, which will only further the desacralizing of the Church. And this is not to judge any of the actors who will be attending the event but the headquarters of the Catholic Church is certainly not the place for a gathering like this. In former times the Vatican was like a sacred monastery where the pope would quietly walk through the Vatican gardens in deep prayer, whereas it has now been reduced to a place of traffic. What the psalmist said in the Bible applies. “There is no fear of God before their eyes.” (Psalms 13:3)

When Christ went into the temple and threw out the moneychangers, this was to serve as a lesson for all generations to come that the wrath of God is especially enkindled against those who use the House of God for their own selfish gain. What is in store for today’s clerical moneychangers who have made the Church a place of traffic?

The Sin of Irreverence

The clergy would do well to consider the conduct of Moses when he approached the burning bush in the mount. The Lord ordered him to put off his sandals because he was on holy ground. And "Moses hid his face: for he dared not look at God." (Exodus 3:6) And to think that this was only a manifestation of God's presence, not an actual physical presence. 

With how much greater reverence must we approach the altar where the Creator Himself dwells day and night in full Body and Spirit? Christ demands silence in and around the sanctuary but instead we see people today rushing into the sanctuary amidst a buzz of worldly chatter as women in tights go up and place their hands on the tabernacle.

We might reflect on how God struck Oza dead for merely reaching out with his hand to catch the Ark of the Covenant when it began to tilt while being pulled on a cart (2 Samuel 6:6,7). The Ark containing an omer of manna prefigured the Tabernacle that would contain the Bread of Life that we receive in Holy Communion. God’s indignation was enkindled against Oza for daring to touch the Ark, so what is in store for clergy and laity who profane the Creator Himself Who dwells physically and supernaturally in the New Testament Ark?

All manner of dancing, strumming, and silliness takes place today on the altar as the priests authorize illegitimate hands to open the tabernacle and bring the Host to others including members of satanic covens who are waiting to abuse the Host in their satanic rituals. Unfortunately, some of today’s “Eucharistic ministers” are agents of darkness on special mission.

Communion in the Hand is Undermining The Faith

But too, among those who receive Communion in the hand are hellish agents who pocket the Host at Mass. Mike Warnke, a former satanic high priest who converted to Christianity, warned the U.S. bishops that allowing Communion in the hand was a mistake, pointing out how this gives Satanists easy access to obtain the host, which they desecrate in their rituals.

This was confirmed by Fr. Andrew Trapp of South Carolina, who posted a web-story about a former Satanist in his prayer group [Nicholas] who revealed to him how they steal consecrated Hosts from Catholic Churches for the purpose of desecrating them in the satanic Black Mass.

Who will account for this sacrilege but the priests who allow Communion in the Hand?

The practice of receiving Communion in the hand has done much to undermine the Faith. If 70% of today’s Catholics no longer believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, it is because of this diabolical practice combined with all the irreverence and merry-making that has cheapened their religion and nurtured this apostate mentality.

Where are the priests to guide the faithful in the proper conduct required at Holy Mass?

The Old testament prophecy of Sophonias alludes to the present-day scenario in the Church if in fact it doesn’t refer to it directly. The prophet speaks of “the provoking, and redeemed city, the dove,” which could very well be Rome, which “has not hearkened to the voice [of God], neither has she received discipline.” The prophet goes on to say:

“Her princes are in the midst of her as roaring lions: her judges are evening wolves, they left nothing for the morning. Her prophets are senseless men without faith: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have acted unjustly against the law.” (Sophonias 3:1-4)

Ring any bells?
