VaticanNews portal reports on the homily delivered by the usurper Robert Prevost, who occupies the Vatican under the name “Pope” Leo XIV, during a Mass in Kilamba, Angola, on April 19, 2026. The article presents his address to the Angolan faithful, in which he employs the Gospel of the Road to Emmaus as a framework for his message. The cited article relates how “Leo XIV” urged the faithful to “remain faithful to what the Church teaches, trust your Pastors, and keep your gaze fixed on Jesus,” while simultaneously warning against “forms of traditional religiosity” that “risk confusing and mixing in magical and superstitious elements.” This homily is a textbook example of the conciliar sect’s strategy: using the language of faith to advance a modernist, naturalistic agenda that undermines true Catholic doctrine and practice.
The Emmaus Narrative Hijacked for Modernist Ends
The homily delivered by the usurper in Kilamba is a masterclass in the hermeneutics of continuity—a modernist tactic designed to make the errors of the post-1958 conciliar revolution appear as a seamless development of immutable Catholic truth. By invoking the Road to Emmaus, “Leo XIV” attempts to cloak his apostasy in the garments of Scripture. However, a careful analysis reveals that his interpretation is not only superficial but actively hostile to the integral Catholic faith.
The article states that “Leo XIV” told the faithful: “He is alive, He is risen, and He walks beside us as we journey along the road of suffering and bitterness. He opens our eyes to recognize His work and grants us the grace to set out again and to rebuild the future.” On the surface, this sounds pious. Yet, in the mouth of a manifest heretic and apostate—one who has publicly defected from the Catholic faith by promoting religious liberty, false ecumenism, and the democratization of the Church—these words are emptied of their supernatural content. The “grace to set out again” he offers is not the grace of the true Church, but the grace of the world, which is enmity with God (James 4:4).
The Attack on “Traditional Religiosity”: A Smokescreen for Apostasy
The most revealing passage in the homily is the warning against “forms of traditional religiosity.” The article quotes “Leo XIV” as saying: “we must always be attentive to those forms of traditional religiosity which, while certainly part of the roots of your culture, also risk confusing and mixing in magical and superstitious elements that do not help us on the spiritual journey.”
This statement is a direct assault on the Catholic faith as it has been practiced for two millennia. What does the conciliar sect mean by “traditional religiosity”? It means the unchanging liturgy, the sacramentals, the rosary, the veneration of saints, the processions, the blessings—all the external manifestations of Catholic piety that the modernists despise because they testify to the supernatural character of the Church. The true Church has always taught that these practices are not “magical” or “superstitious,” but are channels of grace instituted by Christ and His Church.
By contrast, the conciliar sect promotes a naturalistic, anthropocentric “spirituality” that is indistinguishable from secular humanism. The “magical and superstitious elements” they fear are, in reality, the very essence of Catholic worship: the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, the efficacy of the sacraments, the intercession of the saints. The modernists reject these because they cannot accept a God who intervenes in the world. Their “spiritual journey” is a journey inward, not upward—a journey of self-discovery, not of sanctification.
The Silence on the Social Kingship of Christ
The homily is replete with references to “hope,” “peace,” “fraternity,” and “a new society.” Yet, there is not a single mention of the Social Kingship of Christ, the doctrine so powerfully articulated by Pope Pius XI in his encyclical Quas Primas (1925). Pius XI taught that Christ is King not only of individuals but of nations, and that states have a duty to publicly honor and obey Him. The encyclical states: “His reign, namely, extends not only to Catholic nations or to those who, by receiving baptism according to law, belong to the Church… but His reign encompasses also all non-Christians, so that most truly the entire human race is subject to the authority of Jesus Christ.”
“Leo XIV” speaks of “building a country where old divisions are definitively overcome, where hatred and violence disappear, and where the wound of corruption is healed by a new culture of justice and sharing.” But he does not say that this is only possible through the public acknowledgment of Christ the King and the submission of the state to God’s laws. This is the naturalism condemned by Pope Pius IX in the Syllabus of Errors (1864), which anathematized the proposition that “the best theory of civil society requires that popular schools… should be freed from all ecclesiastical authority, control and interference” (Proposition 47).
The “new humanity” and “new society” promised by the usurper are the same promises made by the French Revolution, by Freemasonry, and by every enemy of the Church since the beginning of time. They are promises of a world without Christ, a world where man is his own god. This is the “new humanity” of the conciliar sect, which has replaced the supernatural order with the natural order, the City of God with the City of Man.
The Eucharist Reduced to a Symbol of Human Solidarity
The homily’s treatment of the Eucharist is particularly revealing. “Leo XIV” says: “the Eucharist reminds us that we are one body and one spirit, united in the one Lord, so we too can—and we wish to—build a country where old divisions are definitively overcome.” This is a classic modernist reduction of the Eucharist from the true Body and Blood of Christ, the propitiatory sacrifice of Calvary, to a mere symbol of human unity and solidarity.
The Council of Trent anathematized those who deny that the Eucharist is the true Body and Blood of Christ (Session XIII, Canon 1). The true Church has always taught that the Eucharist is not a symbol but the reality of Christ’s presence, and that its primary purpose is the glorification of God and the sanctification of souls, not the promotion of social justice or national reconciliation. The conciliar sect, however, has reduced the Mass to a “meal of assembly,” a communal gathering where the focus is on the community rather than on God.
The Role of the “Pastors”: Trust in Apostates
The article quotes “Leo XIV” as urging the faithful to “trust your Pastors.” But who are these “pastors”? They are the bishops and priests of the conciliar sect, many of whom are manifest heretics, apostates, and promoters of the very errors condemned by the pre-conciliar Magisterium. To trust these “pastors” is to trust in those who have led the faithful into spiritual ruin.
The true Church has always taught that a heretic, by the very fact of his heresy, ceases to be a member of the Church and loses all jurisdiction (St. Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice, Book II, Chapter 30). The “pastors” of the conciliar sect are, in the eyes of the true Church, laymen without any authority to teach, govern, or sanctify. To urge the faithful to trust them is to urge them to follow blind guides who will lead them into the pit (Matthew 15:14).
The Absence of the True Church
Perhaps the most damning omission in the homily is the complete absence of any reference to the true Church—the Church that endures in the faithful who profess the integral Catholic faith and are led by bishops with valid sacraments and validly ordained priests. The “Church” that “Leo XIV” speaks of is the conciliar sect, the “Church of the New Advent,” the “paramasonic structure” that has occupied the Vatican since 1958.
This Church is not the Church of Christ. It is a counterfeit, a synagogue of Satan (Revelation 2:9), which has replaced the true faith with a naturalistic, humanistic religion that is indistinguishable from the world. The true Church is the Church of the martyrs, the Church of the saints, the Church that has preserved the faith once delivered to the saints (Jude 1:3) in spite of all the attacks of the world, the flesh, and the devil.
Conclusion: The Homily as a Symptom of Systemic Apostasy
The homily delivered by “Leo XIV” in Kilamba is not an isolated incident. It is a symptom of the systemic apostasy that has infected the conciliar sect since its inception. Every element of the homily—the hijacking of Scripture, the attack on traditional piety, the silence on the Social Kingship of Christ, the reduction of the Eucharist to a symbol of human solidarity, the call to trust in apostate “pastors”—is a manifestation of the modernist heresy that has been condemned by the true Church.
The faithful must reject this homily and all it represents. They must return to the immutable Tradition of the true Church, the Church that has preserved the faith in its integrity for two thousand years. They must reject the conciliar sect and its false “pastors,” and seek out the true Church, where the true Mass is celebrated, the true sacraments are administered, and the true faith is taught.
As Pope Pius XI wrote in Quas Primas: “If men were ever to recognize Christ’s royal authority over themselves, both privately and publicly, then unheard-of blessings would flow upon the whole society, such as due freedom, order, and tranquility, and concord and peace.” This is the only path to true peace and true hope—the path of Christ the King, not the path of the conciliar sect and its false “pope.”
