The
CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR
World
Peace
While the bodies of the dead were still being buried and
while Philip was re-building the Basilica of Saint Peter, the Holy Father was
busy. He sent out a letter to all the
bishops of the world. Not too many Bishops were left. His letter read:
The Peace of Our Lady of

anger and chastisement

Worship and Discipline of the Sacraments

In spite of constant attempts by our predecessor of great memory, Supreme

[3.] In 1984 Pope
[3.]
In spite of constant attempts by our predecessors of great memory, from Supreme
Pontiff
[4.] Because of the clear sign of God the
Father’s anger on these things, I have determined to rectify these things.
Chapter I
THE REGULATION OF THE SACRED LITURGY
[5.] The
regulation of the Sacred Liturgy rests specifically with the Apostolic See..
[6.] The
Roman Pontiff, "the Vicar of Christ and the Pastor of the universal Church
on earth, by virtue of his supreme office enjoys full, immediate and universal
ordinary power, which he may always freely exercise", 35 also by means of communication with the
pastors and with the members of the flock.
[7.] It pertains to the Apostolic See to regulate
the Sacred Liturgy of the universal Church, to publish the liturgical books and
to grant the recognitio for their translation
into vernacular languages, as well as to ensure that the liturgical
regulations, especially those governing the celebration of the most exalted
celebration of the Sacrifice of the Mass, are everywhere faithfully observed.
[8.] By the power vested in me by God, and because
we have been unable to stop the abuses, we hereby and hereafter declare that
the experiment with the Novus Ordo is over in the Latin Rite of the Church and
will no longer be the Liturgy of the Latin Rite. From this time forward (with due allowances
for the change) the Tridentine will again be the Liturgy of the Latin Rite.
[9.] The Tridentine Liturgy does not allow for
experimentation or change and therefore the altar must be arranged according to
the Rite, and the Alter rails must be returned to the Churches. All regulations including architecture of the
Tridentine Liturgy are including in this apostolic order. The Tridentine Liturgy does not allow
Extraordinary Ministers or alter girls.
[10.]
The observance of the norms published by the authority of the Church
requires conformity of thought and of word, of external action and of the
application of the heart. All that is said in this Instruction is directed
toward such conformity of our own understanding with that of Christ, as
expressed in the words and the rites of the Liturgy.
[11.] The Sacred Liturgy is intimately
connected with the principles of doctrine, so that the use of any unapproved
texts and rites leads either to the disappearance or the attenuation of the
link between the lex orandi
and the lex credendi.
[12.] Individual Bishops and their Conferences do not have
the faculty to permit experimentation with liturgical texts or the other
matters that are prescribed in the liturgical books.
[13.]
Any Catholic, whether
Priest or Deacon or lay member of Christ's faithful, has the right to lodge a
complaint regarding a liturgical abuse to the
to the Apostolic See on account of the primacy of the Roman Pontiff.
Chapter II
THE UNITY OF ALL CHRISTIANS
[14.]
The failure of the last fifty years to bring about any unity of
our separated Christians is mainly our fault.
In stead of dialoguing on the local level with our separated Christians
on doctrinal differences many Catholic bishops and priests have adopted the
heresy of “pluralism” and even preached the same. There can be no unity without a single truth
and a single doctrine.
[15.]
The second failure on our part was the poor example we gave to our
separated Christians in our Liturgy and sacraments. Many of our separated Christians have great
reverence and respect for the Sacred Liturgy, even to the extreme, and have
expressed their horror at our irreverence.
This poor example will end at this moment.
[16.]
The third failure or our part was the many slanders within the Church with our
clergy and the cover up of these great crimes.
We have discovered that this was a deliberate infiltration of both communists
and homosexuals into our seminary systems to water down basic doctrine and our
moral standards. We are cleaning up
these seminaries of any even slight indication of homosexuality or pedophilia. Any complaint made against any priest with
even reasonable proof of immorality of any kind will result in an immediate
call to
[17.]
Unity is a doctrinal concept and not an
emotional concept. The only unity that matters is unity of
faith, unity of theological truth. We
have many united
[18.]
As expressed very charitably
in Pope
CONCLUSION
[19.]
Armed with the above corrections to our own failures as expressed
above, I will now travel throughout the world meeting with our separated
Christian leaders and demand an end to this disunity. The former support given by governments to
these non-Catholic faiths is over and bringing them into the fold will be much
easier. Radial Nationalism has
ended. The concept of any World
Government is over. The only World
Government is not of this world, but of God’s world, the

Philip traveled throughout the world selling his government
constitution. He expressed that the
failure of governments to support natural law and moral law of God, resulted in
God’s anger and the destruction of 75% of the world’s population. With only one billion people left on earth
and 15% of land mass permanently under water, it was not hard to convince
people that the great calamities of the past years was God’s anger. The comet, the earth quakes, the three days
of complete darkness could not be explained any other way.
Philip stressed that he wanted nothing more than to help
people organize good governments and live happy lives. He wanted no authority for himself. However, he had the wealth of Solomon’s
treasures and was using it to help all nations get quickly on the feet, and
this was a great weapon to convince people to adopt his constitution.
God must have been pleased with Benedict and Philip because
it began to rain throughout the world in a gentle, soft way and without strong
winds. Rainbows were everywhere. Because of the shift of the north and south
poles the ice caps were mostly melted away but enough was left to create just
enough breezes and temperature changes to create and move small clouds from the
seas to land and deposit fresh water.
The world wide temperature changed to such a point that almost all the
world was tropical. Some of the melting
ice made it into the rivers and lakes of the world.
World wide vegetation increased at a drastic rate. Summer lasted ten months a year almost
everywhere. Although some countries and
parts of others were buried under the seas, what was left was like a Garden of
Eden. In fact, food for only one billion
people was plentiful. The world wide
weather was so consistently gentle that changes in clothes was not even needed. Clothes were needed for modesty but not for
weather.
Ten years after the great chastisement and World War III,
Churches were packed; the birth rate was up drastically. Because there were seven women left to every
man, the Holy Father legalized polygamy for just one generation to bring back
population to the world. Within ten
years the average age of the world went from 53 to 23 years.
Philip, himself, had ten children. Very little work was
needed and people lived very happy.
Charity was common but little was needed. Philip returned to his Austrian mansion with
his wife and children. It was time to
retire.
Pope Benedict came to
Merlin, Philip and the Holy Father sat down enjoying a fine
Cabernet Sauvignon.
Philip von Habsburg:
“God has used us to clean up the world and to bring about His Kingdom of
Heaven on Earth. I have thought about
the prayer Christ taught us, ‘thy kingdom come’. It has.
Christ has defeated the entire world.
Maybe it was painful, like birth, but the results are great, even
wonderful.”
Pope Benedict: “Yes!
What we as Christians could not accomplish, God was forced to do,
Himself. We should not be proud of
this. We should have done it so that He
did not have to. The fact that 75% of
the world died is not something to be proud of.
God will not be mocked and when we failed to do His Will, He took over.”
Merlin, the Hermit: “Yes! We have been nothing but tools in
His great hands. But do not be so content with what you see now. Remember, Philip, what I told you years ago.”
Philip von Habsburg:
“What did you tell me? I do not remember.”
Merlin: “I told you about Apocalypse Chapter 10, the little
book.”
Philip: “Yes! You promised to tell me the mystery behind
this little book, which you said was a period of history. Why was it sweet in his mouth but bitter in
his stomach?”
Pope Benedict smiled at Philip, but then his expression
turned sad. He picked up a bible and
turned to Chapter Ten. He read it out
loud:
“And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven,
clothed with a cloud, and a rainbow was on his head, and his face was as the
sun, and his feet as pillars of fire.
“And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his
right foot upon the sea and his left foot upon the earth.
“And he cried with a loud voice as when a lion roareth. And when he
had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
“And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices I was
about to write; and I heard a voice from heaven saying to me: ‘Seal up the
things which the seven thunders have spoken; and write them not.
“And the angel, who I saw standing upon the sea and upon the
earth; lifted his hand to heaven,
“And he swore by him the liveth
for ever and ever, who created heaven and the things which are therein; and the
earth, and the things which are in it; and the sea, and the things which are
therein: that time shall be no longer.
“But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he
shall begin to sound the trumpet, the mystery of God shall be finished, as he
hath declared by his servants, the prophets.
“And I heard a voice from heaven again speaking to me, and
saying: ‘Go, and take the book that is open, from the hand of the angel who standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.
“And I went to the angel, saying unto him, that he should
give me the book. And he said to me:
‘Take the book and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but in thy
mouth is shall be sweet as honey.’
“And I took the book from the hand of the angel and ate it
up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey; and when I had eaten it, my belly
was bitter.
“And he said to me: ‘Thou must prophesy again to many nations and peoples and tongues and kings.”
Philip: “I have no
idea what that means.”
Benedict: “There is a
great deal of meaning to this and it has unfolded right before our eyes.”
Merlin: “I promised to explain it to you in time and that
time is here.”
Philip leaned back and looked carefully at the bible
passage. He sipped the win and waited
for Merlin or Benedict to explain: an angel from heaven, an open book, the
voices of the seven thunders, the mystery of God, the voice from heaven, and a
book bitter in the belly but sweet in the mouth.”
Merlin: “Philip, that
angel you saw was your guardian angel and he guided you to do what you
did. The book of the seven thunders was
a period of history, a very short period of history. The mystery of God was how God would be
forced to bring about his final world wide victory over his enemies using the
seven thunders, the great chastisement and a period of peace.
“Because it is history it also includes this period of
peace. And it seems sweet to us, but the
results will be bitter in time.”
Philip: “That was my
question, what does it mean to be bitter?”
Merlin: “This peace
seems so good. Although many have died,
those left are living in peace and plenty.
There are no trials and tribulations, no heresies and other troubles.
This all seems so sweet and in fact what most people pray for. Not saints, of course, because they know
better.”
Philip: “What do
saints know that I do not know?”
Merlin: “Trials and
tribulations make us strong in our faith, but good times bring weakness in body
and soul. Saints pray for and embrace the cross because without the cross we
become weak in faith.”
Philip was a little uneasy because he knew that Merlin was
about to take away his joy in the great and total victor he had a great part
in. But the Holy Father seems to know exactly what Merlin was about to tell
him. Benedict just sat still with a slightly sad look on his face.
Merlin: “God has
given what 2000 years of Christians have prayed for – peace. But peace and
prosperity breeds soft people. By the
time most of the older people who went through the chastisement have died and the
young people who were too young at the time or born after the chastisement
reach their adult ages, faith will become soft.
People will say that all is well and we do not need God’s commandments
and sacraments. Many will not have the
sacrament of Confirmation. Faith will
become lukewarm. When that happens, the
next great tribulation will come into the world. Because of this the peace will not last long,
a little book of history. And then will come Chapter 11 of Apocalypse.”
