"Homens da Galiléia, porque ficais aí a olhar para o céu? Esse Jesus que vos acaba de ser arrebatado para o céu voltará do mesmo modo que o vistes subir para o céu. (At 1,11) "
ABOUT THE PERPETUAL SACRIFICE (THE HOLY MASS) AND THE ANTICHRIST
Saint John supposes in his Evangels that the first Christians has knowledge about the coming of the antichrist. ?you heard that the antichrist comes? (1Jo 2,18); ?this is the antichrist, whose coming you have heard of? (1 Jo 4,3). Although the Apostle talks about many antichrists, he distinguishes among many and the main and only agent: ?the antichrist will come. Now we already have many antichrists.? (1 Jo 2,18). Again, the writer sketches the character and the work of the antichrist: ?they came out from ours, but they were not ours? (1 Jo 2,19); ?who is more liar if not the one who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son? (1 Jo 2,22); and every spirit that denies Jesus, he is not God?s; and this is the antichrist? (1Jo 4,3); ?because many cheaters are around in this world, the ones who don?t confess that Jesus Christ came in flesh: this is a cheater and an antichrist? (2Jo 1,7).
?No one in any way shall cheat you, because ( this will not be) before the apostasy to come and without the appearance of the man of sin, the son of disgrace, the one who will be against (God) and will elevate above everything that is called God or worshiped, and luckily will sit in the temple of God, presenting himself as God. You will not remember that I said these things, when I was still with you? And now you know what retains him, to be manifested in his time. With effect the mystery of iniquity already operates, we only hope that the one who now retains him doesn?t disappear. And then the iniquity will manifest (to whom the Lord will kill with the blow of His mouth and will destroy with the glory of his come); his coming is by Satan?s work, like all the power, with sings and lying prodigy and with all the cheatings of iniquity for the ones who get lost, because they didn?t embrace the love of the truth to be saved. That?s why God will send you the artifice of error, in such a way that they will believe in lies, so that all the ones who didn?t give credit to the truth but had pleasure in the iniquity will be condemned.? (II Tess. 2, 11-11).
Saint Paul says that the second coming of God will not be before the apostasy, and the appearance of the antichrist, that will be formally against God, and will sit in the temple of God.
Sitting has the idea of cathedra, and cathedra is the symbol of the docent ones; the ones who teach.
Therefore, ?sitting here? means to take the throne of Saint Peter?.
There is something that retains the appearance of the antichrist, and this something is not a person or an ecclesiastic of the future, from the time of apostasy, but something that is together with the apostles: ?and you know what retains him?, and hopingly the one who now retains him, doesn?t disappear?.
Only Jesus Christ can detain the antichrist.
The one who now, retains the antichrist is the holy sacrament of the altar, the consecrated holy bread, Jesus the Christ.
This prophesy therefore, has profound relationship with the prophesy of Daniel, approached by Christ, about the disappearance of the holy bread and the sacrifice, the sacrament of the altar and its cause: the Mass. (Dn 12,9-ss)
It is about a war against ?Holy Bread and Sacrifice?.
This prophesies reveals the power of Holy Bread and the Saint Mass that impedes without our concern, the action of evil in the society. The power of the Holy Bread against the evil is so big, so big, that escapes our comprehension about this mystery.
The antichrist acts in a secret way against the church of Christ, and the ?man of sin? will become public when he will be able to take the Holy Sacrament out of the church.
The attack against the Mass is so clear or each day they try to disfigure and erase this Saint Sacrifice more and more.
Defend the Mass and the Holy Bread is something so great that the beauty and the greatness of this battle will be known in heaven!
The same way that is impossible to know the beauty of heaven, and the fire of hell, it is impossible to know now the value, the merit, and the greatness of fighting to defend the Mass, the Holy Bread, and the priesthood!
?Apostasy?, here, it means crises of faith and moral in the Christian world, or catholic, not in the pagan world.
It means many Christians pagans. (unfortunately even the religious ones)
An adaptation from the Christian to the mundane. ( the fashion world and the materialism ).
This crises will be in the ?end of times?. ( the abandon of the Christian practices, the exact time of the Christian decadence )
Saint Paul talks about ?doctrines of demons?, that propagates ?lies?, spoils the ?conscience?, are against the ?matrimony? and etc?
?Doctrines of demons?, here, would be all the forms of esoteric and pagan beliefs, as well as all kinds of Christian sects and antichristian, and the modern and mundane accepted by the Catholics. ?lie? is the denial of truth through the hedonism. Spoil the conscience would be the denial of the existence of the sin, as well as its propagation.
The Christian message will always be a message of hope, because its purpose is to cure (save) and not to damage the sinner humanity.
?dear beloved ones, remember the words predicted by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ, which said that in the end of the times shall come impostors, who will walk according to their passions, full of cruelty. They are the ones who provoke divisions, sensual men who don?t have spirit. You, however, dear beloved ones, edifying on yourselves over the basis of our saint faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God waiting for the eternal mercy.? (Jud. Vv. 17-21).
