Over time, many organizations have emerged in our country, spending large amounts of money on charitable works, including donations to hospitals, orphanages, homes for the elderly, scholarships, and relief efforts for those in distress. We often refer to these benefactors as philanthropists, as their mission is to share their wealth with the less fortunate.

The Permanent Instruction of the Alta Vendita is a secret document created by the Alta Vendita, the highest lodge of the Italian Carbonari, a Masonic organization operating in the 19th century. This document outlines a covert plan to infiltrate and corrupt the Catholic Church from within rather than attacking it directly. Unlike previous anti-Catholic movements that sought to destroy the Church through force, the Alta Vendita's strategy focused on gradual infiltration, ensuring that over time, the Church would adopt secular and modernist ideas. The document was leaked and published by the Vatican in the 19th century and was later endorsed by Popes Pius IX and Leo XIII, who saw it as a real threat to the Catholic faith.

I am very certain about the origin of the Catholic Church — it was founded by Jesus Christ Himself and entrusted to St. Peter, the first pope and this event is written in the Bible, where Jesus declares, “You are Peter, and upon this rock, I will build my Church” (Matthew 16:18). The Catholic Church has an unbroken line of succession from Christ through the apostles up to the present day. How about the other churches? Jesus Christ founded only one church, then why does a number of ‘Christian’ churches claim that their church is the True Church. Were they really founded by Christ as well or by someone else? Who established them? Understanding a church’s origins is vital in discerning its authority and teachings. So, who founded your church?

Everything that the priesthood of the Old Covenant prefigured finds its fulfillment in Christ Jesus, the “one mediator between God and men.” The Christian tradition considers Melchizedek, “priest of God Most High,” as a prefiguration of the priesthood of Christ, the unique “high priest after the order of Melchizedek”; “holy, blameless, unstained,” “by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are sanctified,” that is, by the unique sacrifice of the cross.

One of the most modern prevalent crimes would be identity theft. For instance, one would not know that his identity is being used for a crime that would need such identity in an authorized registry such as one being done by the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) intended to legitimize something bogus. Hence, investigators noted that common people such as vendors are made corporate stockholders by criminals operating the POGO for money laundering even without their knowledge. But of course, there are some who do these things deliberately by portraying themselves as real Filipinos and legitimate businessmen in spite of the fact that they are assuming another identity by using falsified documents. But one can be so wrong in assuming that this is a modern crime.

The recent arrest of Pastor Apollo C. Quiboloy made a lot of allegations moot and academic as many of the claims of violations of human rights rested on the premise that he was no longer in the KOJC Compound. It was alleged that the police tasked to arrest him were to many and have used excessive force which against the members of the church.

I do not wish to prove something new. Before the cases I will mention in this article Our Lady’s intercession had already been proven several times such as in the Battle of Lepanto in 1571, La Naval de Manila in 1646 and the Siege of Vienna in 1683. However, since there is a continues diabolical plot by some Protestants and anti-Marian movements to undermine the role of the Mother of God in protecting her children, allow me to recount her role in at least three decisive events in the last two centuries.

It was reported that the document of the Catholic Church allowing the blessing of same sex couples by priests was welcomed by the Filipino Bishops. We know that this will bring about a mixed reaction from the Filipino lay people. But for those who feel negatively about this, hold on your reins, being obedient to the will of the Pope as programmed by his synodalities, via his artistic Prefect of the Dicastery of the Congregation of the Faith, Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez doesn’t necessarily translate to a tragedy.

The insistence of the modern sacerdotal movement to totally eliminate the communion using the tongue is part of the diabolical plot to undermine worship of the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist. Although, we accept the Novos Ordo Missae, we deplore the awful persistence of modern priests instructed by their bishops to prevent the practice of communion in the tongue despite of its being legitimate and true to Church tradition.

Many are wondering why Cyrus, the Great had been sent by God as His instrument or even as prefiguration or even as prototypical as of his reigning on earth. Cyrus was not even a Jew nor Christian but could be numbered as among the pagan rulers of the earth. But God works in mysterious ways and is quite amazing in the manner by which He conveys His message of faith to His people. But God is the king without precedence and he does not need any cause for His royalty nor honor as no one among the kings could be as Holy as He is.

The Walpurgis Night or the most important witches’ night occurs on Halloween before All Saints’ Day. Accordingly, during this magical night, warlocks and witches performing their rituals will be granted by the Devil their hearts’ desires. It was also the eve of the feast when all Catholics get ready to honor all their friends in heaven. It was October 31, 1517 when according to Philip Melanchthon, Martin Luther, a priest of the Catholic Church nailed his 95 theses on the door of the All Saints’ Church in Wittenberg, Electorate of Savoy of the Holy Roman Empire. This event as disputed by protestant scholars couldn’t possibly be known to Melanchthon as he only transferred to Wittenberg a year later. This makes us ask the question, is it impossible to know something of the recent past if one isn’t a resident of the place.

The present conflict between Israel and Hamas presents an update of a long existing conflict concerning between the resettled Jews and the people of Palestine. Even if the DNA typology of these peoples would show a common ancestry, it would be a futile attempt to establish peace between co-existing Israeli and Palestinian states side by side. The simple reason is that both their state religions are hostile to one another in a common claim that the lands that they both claim are God-given.
