Vatican’s Financial “Surplus”: A Neo-Church Mirage Distracting From Apostasy
The Vatican News portal (November 24, 2025) reports that the conciliar sect’s Secretariat for the Economy achieved a €1.6 million surplus in 2024, reversing the previous year’s €51.2 million deficit. This purported “financial turning point” is attributed to increased donations, hospital revenues, and speculative investment gains managed by an Investment Committee that yielded €46 million. The report details expenditures of €393.29 million, with 83% allocated to five sectors: supporting local churches (37%), “worship and evangelization” (14%), communication (12%), diplomatic missions (10%), and charity (10%). This financial theater masks the spiritual bankruptcy of an institution that has abandoned its divine mission.
The Cult of Mammon Replaces Sacrificial Offering
The very notion that Christ’s Church requires financial “sustainability” constitutes blasphemy against His promise: “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (Matthew 6:33). Pius XI’s encyclical Quas primas established that Christ’s reign extends “not only over private individuals, but over rulers and governments” (1925), rendering irrelevant the modernist accounting tricks celebrated in this report. The document’s corporate language – “cost control,” “financial management,” and “operating deficit” – exposes the conciliar sect as a worldly NGO rather than the Mystical Body of Christ.
Nowhere does this financial statement mention the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the administration of sacraments, or the salvation of souls – the raison d’être of the true Church. Instead, it celebrates “hospital management” revenues and “capital gains” from speculative investments, directly violating the condemnation of usury in Vix pervenit (1745) and the prohibition against clergy engaging in commerce (Canon 142 CIC 1917). The report’s pride in an Investment Committee’s gambling profits exemplifies Christ’s warning: “You cannot serve God and mammon” (Matthew 6:24).
Heretical Expenditures Financing Apostasy
The expenditure breakdown reveals the neo-church’s anti-Catholic priorities:
“The main item… is dedicated to supporting local Churches in difficulty and in specific contexts of evangelization.”
This vague formulation conceals funding for heretical “local churches” that promote communion for adulterers, pagan rituals (Amazon Synod), and LGBT propaganda. The Second Council of Lyons (1274) defined that the Roman Church “possesses the supreme and full primacy and authority over the universal Catholic Church” – not a federation of national churches inventing their own doctrines.
The allocation of €47.19 million (12%) for “communication of the message” finances the conciliar sect’s propaganda arm in promoting religious indifferentism condemned by Pius IX: “They are in error who contend that it is possible to arrive at eternal salvation by the practice of any religion” (Quanto conficiamur moerore, 1863). Meanwhile, the €39.33 million for diplomatic missions advances the false ecumenism anathematized by Pius XI: “That false opinion which considers all religions to be more or less good and praiseworthy” (Mortalium animos, 1928).
The Great Donation Deception
The report admits the “surplus” hinges on increased donations – a tragic exploitation of well-meaning Catholics unaware they’re funding heresy. Canon 1372 of the 1917 Code forbids the faithful from contributing to “those who are publicly known to be apostates, heretics or schismatics”. The document’s warning that improvements stem from “one-off accounting impact of investments” confirms the financial “recovery” is an accounting illusion, not divine providence.
A Spiritual Wasteland Measured in Euros
The complete absence of supernatural terminology in this 600-word financial report speaks volumes. Not once do the words “grace,” “sacraments,” or “salvation” appear. The conciliar sect operates as a real estate conglomerate and investment fund, having abandoned what Pius X called the Church’s primary duty: “to profess the truth in its entirety… to combat error in whatever form it presents itself” (Notre charge apostolique, 1910). The €1.6 million “surplus” represents 1.6 million more reasons to mourn the eclipse of the true Church, whose treasury consists not of euros but of the merits of Christ’s Sacrifice and the saints’ heroic virtues.
As the structures occupying the Vatican celebrate their financial engineering, they fulfill Pius X’s prophecy about modernists: “In their writings and addresses they seem not rarely to advocate doctrines which are contrary to Catholic faith… they proceed to diffuse poison through the whole Church” (Lamentabili sane exitu, 1907). The only true “financial statement” that matters was written in blood on Calvary – an infinite treasury squandered by apostates building their Babel with counterfeit coins.
