Vatican Consistory Embodies Apostate Synodalism
Vatican News reports from its January 7, 2026 article that approximately 170 “cardinals” gathered at an extraordinary consistory convened by “Pope” Leo XIV (Robert Prevost) selected “synodality” and “mission” as central themes for discussion. The assembly employed modernist methodologies of round-table discussions and group listening sessions, with Dominican “Cardinal” Timothy Radcliffe delivering a meditation emphasizing “peace and love” over doctrinal fidelity. “Pope” Leo XIV declared synodality “the path God expects of the Church in the third millennium,” while requesting reliance on the “cardinals” for his pseudo-petrine ministry.
Subversion of Divine Hierarchy
The glorification of synodality constitutes open rebellion against divina constitutione Ecclesiae (the divine constitution of the Church). Pius XII’s encyclical Mystici Corporis Christi (1943) definitively taught that Christ established His Church as a monarchical hierarchy, with papal supremacy and subordinate bishops exercising jurisdiction—not as debating societies. The Second Vatican Council’s Lumen Gentium (1964) invented the heretical concept of “collegiality,” now metastasized into the conciliar sect’s “synodal path.” This process mirrors the condemned modernist ecclesiology described in Pius X’s Pascendi Dominici Gregis (1907): “The Church is born from the collective conscience.”
“Synodality is the path God expects of the Church in the third millennium,”
This declaration by “Pope” Leo XIV directly contradicts Boniface VIII’s bull Unam Sanctam (1302): “It is absolutely necessary for salvation that every human creature be subject to the Roman Pontiff.” Synodal processes invert divine authority by subjecting truth to democratic discernment—a tactic perfectly aligned with Masonic demands for “democratization of the Church” as outlined in the Alta Vendita documents.
Naturalism Disguised as Mission
The consistory’s second theme—”Evangelization and mission in the light of Evangelii Gaudium“—completes the apostasy by reducing the Church’s mission to social activism. Pius XI’s Quas Primas (1925) established that Christ’s kingship requires conversion of nations: “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 to Christ.” In contrast, Evangelii Gaudium (2013) promotes the heresy of “dialogue” with false religions, declaring proselytism “solemn nonsense.”
The meditation by “Cardinal” Radcliffe epitomizes this naturalism. Focusing on “storms” of “violence,” “poverty,” and “ideological divisions” while omitting peccatum (sin), grace, and judgment reduces the Gospel to Marxist sociology. His admonition—”face storms with truth and courage without timidly waiting on the shore”—parodies Our Lord’s command to Peter (Mt 14:29), yet strips it of the precondition: Domine, jube me venire ad te (“Lord, bid me come to You”).
Ritualized Apostasy
The logistical details betray the anti-sacral character of the gathering:
- “Round tables” replacing hierarchical seating
- Three-minute speech limits silencing substantive theological discourse
- Omission of the Veni Sancte Spiritus sequence—the traditional hymn for councils—in favor of Veni Creator, adapted for human committees
This procedural chaos reflects the conciliar sect’s abandonment of lex orandi, lex credendi (the law of prayer is the law of belief). Pius V’s Quo Primum (1570) established immutable liturgical norms precisely to prevent such innovations, which Pius XII condemned in Mediator Dei (1947) as “arbitrary acts” causing “grave spiritual harm.”
Theological Vacuum
Notably absent from discussions were:
- Reparation for blasphemies and sacrileges
- The Four Last Things (Death, Judgment, Heaven, Hell)
- Condemnation of heresies like religious liberty and false ecumenism
This omission fulfills Pius X’s warning in Pascendi that modernists reduce religion to “vital immanence”—subjective experience divorced from dogma. “Cardinal” Radcliffe’s call to “live in peace and love even when differences emerge” constitutes indifferentism condemned by Gregory XVI in Mirari Vos (1832): “a foul contrivance against the Catholic faith.”
Conclusion: Desertion from Christ the King
The consistory’s outcome—no final text, only “learning a synodal style”—confirms the conciliar sect’s rejection of depositum fidei (the deposit of faith). As St. Pius X decreed in Lamentabili Sane (1907): “The dogmas of faith are to be held only according to their practical sense.” This gathering of apostate prelates, voting on doctrines like shareholders at a corporate retreat, embodies the abomination described by Paul IV in Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio (1559): “All elevation of manifest heretics is null, void, and without effect.” True Catholics must heed Pius XI’s injunction in Quas Primas: “Rebellion against Christ’s authority brings ruin to individuals and nations.”
