Since Vatican II, we have seen the emergence of a new parallel church that works against the True Church—the Mystical Body of Christ. And while today’s counter-church operates within the framework of the Church its ideologies and activities have their origin outside the Catholic Church.
That is to say, this new parallel church is not 1 truly part of the Mystical Body. The fact is that we have two churches running side by side today—the new conciliar church of man and the One True Church instituted by Christ.
Cardinal Wojtyla (later John Paul II) prophesied this very crisis in late summer 1976, when he said:
“We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-Church, between the Gospel and the anti-Gospel. This confrontation lies within the plans of divine Providence; it is trial which the whole Church… must take up.”
Unlike the true Church, the anti-Church has inherited all the ambiguous mumbo-jumbo of Vatican II. In the spirit of the Council, priests often make ambiguous statements that are misleading and detrimental. They’ll say things like:
“People who think they can follow Christ ‘in their own way’ without being part of the Body, are living a distortion.”
People indeed are “living a distortion” if they think they can worship “their own way” outside of tradition, but is this what these priests really mean?
What they really mean is that not following the modernist flow since Vatican II is what places one outside the Body of Christ. This is an error, since the embrace of modernist heresy is what separates one from the Body. Belonging to Christ is not about flowing with the crowd but about standing apart from it and holding to tradition (2 Thess. 2:14), even if no one else does it.
In the words of St. Augustine:
“Right is right even if no one is doing it; wrong is wrong even if everyone is doing it.”
