Dear Miguel, God be with you, as always.
In reference to your recent document
(1)....
I've been reading Lew Rockwell's web site for years, and Paul Craig
Roberts, along with Gary North (more substantive than Roberts, in my
opinion), are clearly living in the same reality as yourself and many
of us who follow.
Roberts has previously overtly accused the Bush administration of
deliberately trying to start a nuclear war, as one example. The
archive of his posts is eye-opening. North's columns are more
economic in their focus - being a student of the Austrian school of
economics - but his conclusions are explicitly Christian and he
logically describes an inevitable series of “apocalyptic” economic
events, informed by what is obviously a deep faith.
Best Regards
IW
Note Added on September 10, 2008:
We do not endorse Mr.
Gary North, nor IW does now.
Mr. North has been identified as a leader of the Christian
Reconstructionist movement - an offshoot of which is Joel's army. As a
matter of fact, we want to warn against Mr. North and his ideologies.

I stumbled across something in Wikipedia a reference about
the Number of the Beast
(1).
Now we surely know that Ratzinger is actually the Antichrist (2) - and
I personally have no doubt of this, nor need any further confirmation.
And, as you indicate in your document about this, the numerology aspect
is merely for the curious; not the penultimate
identifier.
Frankly when I found this I was not intentionally searching
for it; it sort of fell into my lap by accident via a link I followed
in another article. Here is the key phrase which caught my eye:
"During the Reformation, Martin
Luther noted that "Benediktos"
added up to 666 in Greek gematria, and he thought it might refer to a
Pope named Benedict or to Benedictine monks.

666 |
To me, this does neither conflict with nor negate the number 616,
which has been recently (2005 - when BXVI took office!) affirmed by
scholars as the correct number in the "urtext" of Revelations. It would
seem to serve as a type of "secondary proof" (with the Spiritual
"proof" given by the Holy Spirit as the primary and absolute proof). But
- note well the phrasing of the above quote....... and now remember the
"Prophecy of St. Malachy".(3)
Luther was likely ignorant of it, as it was
not published until some 50 years after his death!
"The prophecy was first published
in 1595 by Arnold de Wyon, a Benedictine historian, as part of his book
Lignum Vitæ. Wyon attributed the list to Saint Malachy, the
12th‑century bishop of Armagh in Ireland. According to the traditional
account, in 1139, Malachy was summoned to Rome by Pope Innocent II.
While in Rome, Malachy purportedly experienced a vision of future
popes, which he recorded as a sequence of cryptic phrases. This
manuscript was then deposited in the Roman Archive, and thereafter
forgotten about until its rediscovery in 1590."
The coincidence of alignment between Luther and St. Malachy is
astounding and utterly unknown to myself until now.
These serve as
more "human proof'". It is almost as if God has several large brightly
colored neon arrows all pointing at Ratzinger..........yet the vast
majority of humanity is color blind!
Christ be with you always.

In reference to your recent
mailing with the Subject of: Texas
town reels from horrific abuse in its midst (1)
I live in "X" County and this
happened just down the road from me. The scandal barely even
caused a blip in my local paper. Of course this could be because my
city's "Man of the Year" was caught doing almost the same thing with
the little girls in his church (yes he was in a church that he and a
couple of other families started when they broke away from the most
prominent church in town).
He had the biggest house in town and was considered the richest man in
town. He would take kids from the area on his airplane for rides to see
what their houses looked like from the air. He also always played
Santa Claus every year for the Christmas Parade. It turned out that he
was inappropriately touching the kids on his lap for years but they
didn't know any better.
This went on for years and he was even accused several times by little
girls in his church, but their parents would come to his defense (He
helped so many of them out with money when they were in a crisis, they
didn't want the money to stop).
When one of the more influential members of our town had a child
complain about what he was doing to her her, her parents believed her
and and took her to Tyler to see if she had been sexually assaulted,
she was between 6 and 8 years old. She was and charges were filed
against him. I don't remember how many children were involved but
it was more then 20. He ended up getting 3 consecutive life terms
with no parole.
(Eventually) ....we found
out why (we felt that way towards him) when his case went to
trial. This area of Texas seems to have more than it's fair share
of convicted felons with a history of sexual assault.
It seems like we get one or two a year involving multiple children.
It's disgusting and it hurts so much when I read about
them.

Mineola, about 80 miles east of Dallas, is a close-knit, conservative
bean-processing town of with more than 30 churches. Residents
there want to put the scandal behind them as quickly as possible.
The one-story building where prosecutors say four children — the three

The M+G+R Foundation Comments:
This
IS how sick our society has become.... and we cannot be accused of
living an Alternative Reality. Debauchery rules - while the world
population continue to firmly stick their heads into a hole in the
ground.
Prayer could have slammed the brakes on society's
debauchery.... now, it really is too late.... all it can do is cushion
the blows of the price we will pay for having turned God's Creation
into what would make the residents of Sodom and Gomorrah blush, while
pretending being disciples of Jesus Christ!

Dear Miguel:
In your current Private Forum (1),
you wrote:
"We want to take this opportunity to encourage the faithful not to
read "new and improved" accounts about the period that the New
Testament covers in order to avoid further confusions. Even if
the stories come through "Church approved" mystics or contained in new
found scrolls; and certainly not from New Age like sources."
I am most grateful for that advice. It confirmed the
intuition (2)
that I have had so far. I have been aware of the alternative
"histories" of Mary and Christ (Agreda, Emmerich, Valtorta, etc.) -
massive tomes of new "information" about Christ and His times. I never
read any of this material, for these reasons:
1. Uncertainty of the truth of the "new" material
2. Lack of time
3. Certainty that, whatever the value of this apparitional
information, that I would use my time better by reading and
understanding the New Testament itself, rather that these
ancillary/competing works.
Instead of reading the channeled books, I am getting much from
reading the daily Scripture readings assigned by the Orthodox Church
(and also used by Eastern Catholics.) This slow but sure method
of study and meditation has helped me a lot. I am sure that the
same process, using the Roman Catholic readings, would greatly benefit
any Roman Catholic visitor to your site.
Your statement against Urantia and similar New Age (3) books is clear and
charitable.

Oh my, I enjoyed reading the story about putting
gas in your car.
(1)
How dare we complain about what we're paying here. Hearing
how much it
is in Portugal really brings home how downright SPOILED we are in
the
U.S.
We are so incredibly blessed, but most of us don't realize
it.
Anyone who is able to own their home (even the "moderate" ones are
pretty swanky by worldwide standards), afford all the food they want
(much more than they need), take a vacation, and buy items not
essential to life should be most grateful. I'm afraid we
can only
fully appreciate our blessings when lose them. Perhaps that is
one of
the main pitfalls of being human.
I'm ashamed to admit that during the recent thunder and
lightening
storms we've been having -- my very first utterance to the Lord is
"please let us keep our electricity, if it is possible."
(2) The
motivating factor for me is that we not lose our lovely air
conditioning, of which I have become so fond.
Embarrassing.

_____________________________
(1) As a matter
of the "state of the
world economies" interest - Today we added gas to the 1992 vehicle a
supporter from Portugal has allowed us to use on an open-ended loan.
The amount of gas: 5.71 gallons ; cost of the gas: $42.63 US
dollars.
Thanks be to God that He relocated us to a place where very, very
little driving is needed for us to discharge our functions.
The little car does about 42 miles to the gallon. Now, imagine
about the folks that live in this town and travel 50 miles each way
- six days a week - to the nearest big city to work and drive much less
economic cars.

No embarrassment is called for; He taught us thus: My
Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless
not as I will, but as thou wilt.
[Matthew 26:39]
and you the same including deferring to His Will. Having lived
in Houston extensively we can certainly understand your prayer.
From miguel de
Portugal @ EU * USA -
Published on June 30th, 2008 [First
Martyrs of the Church of Rome]
We received a letter from a
collaborator whose sincerity, honesty and assistance we value greatly.
He had a very valid question which - in edited form - we reproduce
below:
If I
think that I can help you and your mission more - Is it safe, in
Eternity terms, to step aside from the "world" i.e. - staying a good
worker,
a good husband, etc. but at the same time redirect all effort (free
time I
had and time I spend on personal projects) in preparations to what is
to come by prayer plus more time spent on what I have been doing to
assist you (m de P) up to now and related work?
This is what we answered him - straight from the heart:
Here is what we
suggest that you do...
It is easier to a
devoted, but normal (1), human being to function
in the
world, thus "...staying a
good worker, good husband etc.", while focusing on what is to come and
the preparation required, if
deadlines are set. For example - you can
say to yourself and to your wife:
"I
will place all effort
(free time I have and time I spend on personal projects) in preparation
for what is to come by prayer as well as more time spent in
helping m de P with what I have been doing up to now plus related
work, while staying a
good worker, good husband etc.
under the following conditions:
If within 18 months from
today the world is not in the obvious
grip of a global apocalyptic type crisis of the natures that have been
announced, I will change priorities and greatly de-emphasize the amount
of time spent in helping m de P with what I have been doing
up to now, plus related work. and take more time for relaxation
and personal projects.
Psychologically,
that covenant with yourself will give you a measure of
comfort, and a reassurance to those who are not "inside your head" -
those who cannot see what you can see - that if what you are seeing now
does not materialize there is an "end point" in sight and not one of
those "never ending projects".
We feel that this is just and fair for
all who are part of your life-orbit.
May those who have Eyes, See and Ears, Hear....
