The Conciliar Sect’s Synodal Delusions Expose Apostate Agenda
VaticanNews portal reports on January 8, 2026, that antipope Leo XIV addressed cardinals of the conciliar sect during an “extraordinary consistory” in the Paul VI Hall. The gathering focused on two themes selected “by clear majority”: synodality and mission reinterpreted through the lens of Evangelii Gaudium. The usurper of Peter’s throne declared: “I feel the need to be able to count on you… it is important that we work together, that we discern together, that we seek what the Spirit is asking of us.” This theatrical exercise in false collegiality reveals the sect’s complete departure from Catholic ecclesiology.
Rejection of Apostolic Governance
The conciliar sect’s obsession with “synodality” constitutes open rebellion against Christ’s establishment of monarchical hierarchy (Pastor Aeternus, Vatican I). Pius XII condemned such innovations in Mystici Corporis (1943): “The divine Redeemer governs His Body in a visible and normal way through His Vicar on earth… Bishops must be considered as the more illustrious members of the Universal Church, for they are united by a very special bond to the divine Head of the whole Body.” The antipope’s claim that “one theme cannot be separated from the other” demonstrates the sect’s systematic dismantling of the Church’s divine constitution, replacing Peter’s keys with democratic processes.
Naturalism Masquerading as Mission
When the antipope asserts the Church’s “reason for being… is to proclaim the Gospel,” he promotes the naturalistic heresy condemned by Pius IX in Quanta Cura (1864): “The Church is not a true and perfect society, entirely free… but it appertains to the civil power to define what are the rights of the Church.” The true mission of the Church—the sanctification of souls through valid sacraments and preservation of doctrine—is replaced with horizontal activism. Evangelii Gaudium‘s focus on “kerygma” divorced from doctrinal precision constitutes the Modernist error described in Pius X’s Pascendi Dominici Gregis: “They will not have doctrine to be an immutable thing… but subject to perpetual evolution.”
Liturgical Abandonment as Dogmatic Apostasy
The cardinals’ deliberate omission of liturgy from discussion exposes the sect’s hatred for Catholic worship. Pius V’s Quo Primum (1570) established the Mass as “fixed forever,” yet the conciliar sect systematically destroyed it. The article’s silence on this abandonment confirms Benedict XV’s warning in Ad Beatissimi Apostolorum (1914): “When the reverence due to the sacred mysteries and to the hierarchy is lost, the result is that the peoples… lose their faith and become incapable of bearing the trials of life.”
Gnostic “Spirit” Versus Divine Revelation
The antipope’s repeated invocation of “what the Spirit is asking of us” constitutes the heresy of Montanism. As Leo XIII declared in Providentissimus Deus (1893): “The Holy Spirit Himself, by whom the whole flock of Christ is governed and sanctified, does not actually bring new revelations to complete the teaching of Christ.” The true Spirit speaks through immutable doctrine, not through bureaucratic committees in the Paul VI Hall—a structure designed to resemble a Masonic lodge.
False Ecumenism’s Poisonous Fruits
The rhetorical question “Is there life in our Church?” admits the sect’s spiritual bankruptcy. Pius XI addressed this in Mortalium Animos (1928): “The Church alone is in possession of the truth… The union of Christians can only be promoted by promoting the return to the one true Church.” The antipope’s call to “paths different from those already taken” directly contradicts St. Vincent of Lérins’ Commonitorium: “Quod ubique, quod semper, quod ab omnibus creditum est” (What has been believed everywhere, always, by all).
Omission of Doctrine and Judgment
The complete absence of references to:
- Mortal sin and hell
- Necessity of sacramental confession
- Dogmas of faith
- Social reign of Christ the King
reveals the sect’s anti-supernatural foundation. Pius XI’s Quas Primas (1925) declared: “Nations will be reminded by the annual celebration of this feast that not only private individuals but also rulers and princes are bound to give public honor and obedience to Christ.” The antipope’s “mission” lacks all reference to conversion of souls—the Church’s primary task according to Christ’s command (Mark 16:15).
Conclusion: Apostasy Institutionalized
This consistory demonstrates the conciliar sect’s complete maturation into the “abomination of desolation” foretold in Scripture (Daniel 9:27). As St. Paul warned: “In novissimis temporibus discedent quidam a fide” (In the last times, some will depart from the faith – 1 Timothy 4:1). True Catholics recognize these structures as occupying forces, preserving the faith through catacomb churches until God restores His visible Church.
