State
of the Roman Catholic Faith in Portugal
The Truth
PURPOSE
The purpose of this document is to conclusively illustrate to the
Faithful the true state of the Roman Catholic Faith and how much it has
been eroded - even in the country where "...the dogma of the Faith
will always be preserved..." - Portugal.
Maybe this reality check will move some to prayerful acts of reparation
so that we may be able to answer "Yes!"
to Our Lord's question: "But when the Son of
Man comes, will He find faith on earth?" [Luke 18: 8]
BACKGROUND
As part of the Message of Fátima of 1917, Mary, the Mother of Jesus
Christ, thus, of God in the Flesh (1), conditionally stated:
"In Portugal, the dogma of the Faith will
always be preserved; ..."
(2)
DETAILS
A survey conducted in Portugal in January 2004 (3) indicates that:
85.4 % Claim to be
Catholics
1.3 % Claim to be Protestant
6.9 % Atheist and Agnostics
2.4 % Other Religions
4.0 % No Response
54 % DO NOT
Believe in the Resurrection
46.3 % DO NOT
Believe in Life After Death
50.1 % Believe in Miracles
45.4 % Do Not Believe in the Supernatural
31.7 % Believe in Reincarnation (4)
41 % Believe in Astrology
32.9 % Believe in Contacting Spirits (5)
46.4 % Never Read the Bible
42.3 % Reads the Bible Once in a While
13.3 % Frequently Pray
33.9 % Always Pray (6)
42.4 % Pray Once in a While (7)
CONCLUSION
The above is the current profile (a profile which is getting worse day
by day) of the population of the country where "the dogma of the Faith
will always be preserved" - Portugal (8).
The illuminated reader can then draw his/her own conclusion regarding
the State of the Catholic Faith in the rest of the world, thus the
magnitude of the chastisements required to bring the world back to God.
EPILOGUE
Why does miguel de Portugal (9)
continue to bring up the dismal state of the Faith, and the world, to
our readers?
You will know the answer when you respond in your heart to: "Why did Jonah set out for the great city
of Nineveh?"
If the reader has a Bible that is not exclusively used as a coffee
table decoration, he/she may want to reread the Book of Jonah followed
by the Book of Nahum. He/she will then have the full answer to said
question as well as the Titanic-like "end
of the story" (10).
The reader may now think: "Why bother then if the end of the story is
Titanic-like?"
The answer is also quite simple: The
Titanic could have sunk with no casualties at all, or it could have
taken all to their deaths; however, a small fraction was saved. What awaits humanity is quite
similar.
Dear brothers and sisters - as it is commonly said: "The ball is squarely in your court!"
(11) That is, it
is up to you to take the next step (11) to minimize the
"casualty list".
May the Holy Spirit of God guide your every step. We assure you -
without it, you will be hopelessly lost.
