Catholic News Agency reports on the upcoming first international trip of the antipope Leo XIV to Turkey and Lebanon from November 27 to December 2, 2025. The article frames this journey as a “historic apostolic journey” emphasizing “ecumenical encounters,” “symbolic gestures of prayer,” and “pastoral visits to Christian communities under pressure.” It specifically mentions planned visits to Ankara and Istanbul in Turkey, including the Chora Church – a former Byzantine church converted into a mosque – and highlights Lebanon’s suffering from Israeli bombings. The report references previous visits by antipopes John Paul II (1997) and Benedict XVI (2012), while a Lebanese priest claims: “We have never evacuated, we have never left our village” despite ongoing conflict. The article presents the trip as promoting “unity, peace, and encouragement” without any mention of conversion, the Social Reign of Christ the King, or condemnation of heresies.
The Ultimate Betrayal of Christ’s Social Kingship
This blasphemous spectacle constitutes a direct assault on the immutable teaching that Christus vincit, Christus regnat, Christus imperat (Christ conquers, Christ reigns, Christ commands). Pius XI’s encyclical Quas Primas (1925) dogmatically declared that “nations will be happy only when they submit to the sweet yoke of our King” and warned that “the rebellion of individuals and states against the authority of Christ has produced deplorable consequences.” The article’s celebration of this visit to Islamic nations – whose legal systems reject Christ’s divinity – confirms the conciliar sect’s apostasy from Catholic truth. By omitting any reference to Christ’s right to rule nations, while promoting “unity” with those who reject His divinity, the antipope commits the precise error condemned in the Syllabus of Errors: “The Church ought to be separated from the State, and the State from the Church” (Pius IX, Proposition 55). The silence about Lebanon’s constitutional requirement that its president be Maronite Catholic reveals the conciliar revolution’s hatred for the constitutiones christianae that once ordered societies to Christ the King.
False Ecumenism: The Masonic Dream Realized
The planned visit to Istanbul’s Chora Church – now a mosque – constitutes sacrilegious indifferentism explicitly condemned by Pius IX: “Good hope at least is to be entertained of the eternal salvation of all those who are not at all in the true Church of Christ” (Proposition 17). This follows the modernist pattern exposed in the “False Fatima Apparitions” document’s analysis of Masonic strategy: “Stage 3 (1958-2000): Takeover of the narrative by modernists, concealment of the Third Secret, ecumenical reinterpretation.” When the article praises “historic ecumenical encounters,” it unknowingly confesses the conciliar sect’s surrender to the Masonic plan documented in Pius IX’s Syllabus: “Protestantism is nothing more than another form of the same true Christian religion, in which form it is given to please God equally as in the Catholic Church” (Proposition 18). The blasphemous equation of Christian villages with Islamic strongholds ignores St. Robert Bellarmine’s teaching that “a manifest heretic cannot be Pope” (De Romano Pontifice), exposing Leo XIV as antipope through his public heresy.
Naturalization of the Church’s Supernatural Mission
The reduction of the papal office to a humanitarian NGO director appears in the article’s focus on “Christian communities under pressure” without mentioning their raison d’être – the salvation of souls. This fulfills St. Pius X’s warning in Lamentabili against modernists who claim “the Church is incapable of effectively defending evangelical ethics because it steadfastly adheres to its views” (Proposition 63). The Lebanese priest’s declaration that “we have never left our village” becomes naturalistic bravado when divorced from the ultima ratio of preserving the Faith – a point underscored by the article’s silence about whether these communities receive valid sacraments from priests ordained in the pre-conciliar rite. Pius XII’s Mediator Dei condemned such sociological reductionism: “The chief element of divine worship must be interior… Yet the worship of God must also be external.” The conciliar sect’s obsession with geopolitical conflicts (“Israeli bombings”) while ignoring the eternal conflict between Christ and Satan reveals its essentially naturalistic worldview.
Papal Visits as Instruments of Apostasy
The article’s reference to previous antipapal visits (John Paul II in 1997, Benedict XVI in 2012) unwittingly documents the conciliar sect’s consistent betrayal. John Paul II’s Quran-kissing sacrilege in Damascus (2001) and Benedict XVI’s prayer in the Blue Mosque (2006) established the pattern Leo XIV now completes. This constitutes formal cooperation with the “abomination of desolation” foretold in Daniel 9:27, fulfilling the Masonic strategy described in the “False Fatima Apparitions” analysis: “Globalization of the cult and control of the narrative through Lucia’s isolation.” The article’s focus on St. Charbel Makhlouf’s tomb visit ironically highlights the conciliar contradiction – while pretending to venerate a pre-conciliar saint, the antipope rejects the very Faith Makhlouf died defending. Canon 188 §4 of the 1917 Code renders this visit canonically invalid: “Every office becomes vacant by the mere fact… if the cleric publicly defects from the Catholic faith.”
The conciliar sect’s “apostolic journeys” constitute nothing less than global processions of apostasy, fulfilling Pius X’s warning in Pascendi about modernists who “put themselves in communion with the unbelievers” while maintaining Catholic appearances. Until the hierarchy returns to the integral Faith professed before 1958 – rejecting false ecumenism, affirming Christ’s Social Kingship, and restoring the true Sacrifice of the Mass – these spectacles will continue to lead souls to perdition. As St. Paul admonishes: “And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed” (2 Thess 3:14).
