Vatican Ceremony Masks Apostasy: The Empty Ritual of a False Jubilee
Catholic News Agency reports on January 6, 2026, the closure of St. Peter’s Holy Door by “Pope” Leo XIV, concluding what it calls the “Jubilee of Hope.” The ceremony involved processed prayers, a Latin formula, and promises of divine mercy while omitting the traditional masonry ritual. The article emphasizes themes of “conversion, reconciliation, and hope” without defining these terms according to Catholic doctrine, while boasting of 33.4 million pilgrims participating in the modernist spectacle.
Illegitimate Authority Presiding Over Sacrilegious Rites
The so-called “Holy Father” Leo XIV possesses no jurisdiction over Christ’s Church. As the usurper of Peter’s Chair following the apostate John XXIII, his actions carry no spiritual weight. Bellarmine’s principle holds firm: “A manifest heretic cannot be Pope” (De Romano Pontifice, II.30). The ceremony’s validity crumbles before the ironclad logic of Pius IX’s Syllabus of Errors, which condemns those who “equate the Catholic religion with false religions” (Proposition 18). When antipope Bergoglio (“Francis”) initiated this jubilee, he merely continued the conciliar sect’s practice of turning sacramental theology into psychological theater.
Theological Fraud of Conciliar “Indulgences”
The article’s reference to plenary indulgences constitutes blasphemy against the sacrament of penance. Pius VI’s constitution Auctorem Fidei (1794) anathematized those who would “weaken the efficacy of indulgences.” True indulgences require:
- Sacramental confession
- Eucharistic communion
- Prayers for the pope’s intentions
- Complete detachment from sin
The conciliar sect’s jubilee promotes a false mercy detached from ex opere operato sacramental validity. As Pius XI declared in Quas Primas: “The peace of Christ can only be found in the Kingdom of Christ” – a kingdom these Vatican occupiers explicitly deny through their ecuмenical apostasy.
Liturgical Vandalism in Ritual Simplification
The article boasts about the “simplified” 1975 rite for closing holy doors, a rupture condemned by St. Pius X’s Lamentabili Sane: “The progress of sciences requires a reform of the concept of Christian doctrine… is a modernistic error” (Proposition 64). The traditional ritual involved:
“The mason closing the Holy Door with brick and mortar, inserting commemorative medals and coins, while the pope struck the door three times with a silver hammer chanting ‘Aperite mihi portas iustitiae'”
This modernist reduction to mere door-closing exemplifies the conciliar sect’s destruction of sacramental signs. The planned private masonry work “without cameras” reveals their awareness of the ceremony’s illegitimacy – true Catholic rites demand public witness.
Naturalism Replacing Supernatural Faith
The “Jubilee of Hope” focuses entirely on earthly consolations while omitting the sine qua non of true jubilees: the remission of temporal punishment through Christ’s merits applied via the Church’s authority. Leo XIV’s statement that “the door of your mercy is not closed” constitutes the heresy of universal salvation condemned by the Council of Florence (Session 11): “No one remaining outside the Catholic Church… can become partakers of eternal life.” The article’s statistics about pilgrim numbers (33.4 million) emphasize quantitative success over qualitative conversion – a Marxist metric alien to Catholic ecclesiology.
Ecumenical Apostasy in Prisoner “Inclusion”
The article’s reference to prisoners attending the jubilee with “special permission” exposes the conciliar sect’s abandonment of redemptive suffering. Traditional Catholic prison ministry focused on:
- Valid sacramental confession
- Fervent contrition
- Preparation for death
Not the modernist “accompaniment” that treats incarceration as mere social disadvantage. Pius X’s Lamentabili condemned the notion that “the Church is incapable of effectively defending evangelical ethics” (Proposition 63) – precisely what this jubilee demonstrates by reducing penance to psychological reconciliation.
The Masonic Fingerprint in Jubilee Theater
The involvement of “tourism operators” in jubilee events (as mentioned in related articles) confirms the Masonic strategy noted in the False Fatima Apparitions file: “Disinformation strategy… concealment of true doctrine.” The “Holy Year of Tourism” pilgrimage transforms the Eternal City into Disneyland, where the sacrifice of Calvary becomes a photo opportunity. Pius IX’s Syllabus condemns those who “place the Church’s rights under state control” (Proposition 19) – precisely achieved when Vatican ceremonies serve tourism boards rather than souls.
As the true Church endures in catacombs while antipopes play dress-up in St. Peter’s, faithful Catholics recall Pius XI’s warning: “When God and Jesus Christ are removed from laws and states… human society shakes because it lacks a stable foundation” (Quas Primas). This jubilee’s closure doesn’t end the crisis – it merely inaugurates another phase of the conciliar sect’s accelerating apostasy.
