If you read what Fr. Hughes says in his Editor Letter. “It is not our place to question why or to attempt to predict the future.” This is Father’s regular ploy he uses in denying the divine interpretation of St. Paul’s meaning of  the Great Apostasy, (schism) supported by the other Apostles.  They reveal that the Great Apostasy concludes with Christ’s return. But Father pretends that we will have a restoration of the church, (Another true Pope). before Christ comes back. So he ignores the Biblical interpretation that the AntiChrist continues to occupy the Holy See until Christs return and that’s when our Lord  immediately casts the AntiChrist and the false prophet into Hell.  Apocalypse 19:20.

Father also denies that the break in the line of Popes is in violation of Vatican Council I. He gets around this by saying that we are going through an interregnum. But if this were true then the Apostate Vatican II church would still be the church?

Without Paul VI being the first of the reign of AntiChrists sitting on the chair, the sede vacante position would be in violation of Vatican Council I, but Father pretends that the AntiChrists haven’t arrived yet?

Have a blessed Easter season concluding with the general judgement,  the year that it happens in.

Grace be with you. In Christ, Joseph
