The Synodal Church continues to stray from Jesus’ command to make disciples and to bring souls into heaven. The Synodal Church is more concerned about SEEKING FAVOR WITH THE WORLD/MOVING WITH THE WORLD rather than with spiritual matters.

Greek Hellenism: This term means to wander, to go astray, to lead astray, to be mistaken, to vacillate, to lie, to seduce, to doubt, to be at a loss.

Aeschylus’ Prometheus Bound 473: “You have lost your wits and have gone astray.”

Herodotus’ The Histories 2.115: “Alexandrus was evasive in his story and did not tell the truth.”

Plato’s Statesman 263a: “We have already strayed away from our subject more than we ought, and you wish us to wander still further afield.”

Plato’s Protagoras 256d: “Is it not the power of appearance that leads us astray. Many a time causes us to have to change our minds in both our conduct and in our choice.”

Old Testament: This term means to lead astray, to confuse, to wander, and to vacillate spiritually. This term generally refers more to faith, belief, and philosophy rather than profane deceiving.

New Testament: This term means to go astray, to spiritually vacillate, to be misled, to deviate (from the correct path), to err, to be deceived, and to be mistaken. For purposes of brevity, the Parable of the Good Shepherd will be excluded.

Scripture:

Mt.22:29: Jesus said to the Sadducees, ‘You are misled because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God.’” (The Sadducees were attempting to trick Jesus about marriage relationships in reference to heaven. The Sadducees’ hypothetical case was intended to make bodily resurrection look absurd. Instead, Jesus points out that sexual relationships of this world will be transcended [will no longer exist in heaven]).

Mt.24:11: “Many false prophets [Christians] will arise and deceive many.” (There will be worse afflictions within the Church itself. Jesus warned that numerous imposters would claim divine authority while opposing God’s truth. These leaders would gain influence and encourage spiritual confusion, distorted doctrine, and false religious claims. Many will be led into sin and be scandalized.)

Jn.7:12: Some said Jesus is a good man. Others said He misleads the crowd. (Some Jews were seeing a different Jesus who was misleading [drawing others away] from the law of Moses, breaking the Sabbath, and proclaiming to be Messiah.)

1Cor.6:9: Do not be deceived; neither fornicators nor idolaters nor adulterers nor sodomites will inherit the kingdom of heaven.

Do not be deceived: Are people now just taking this scripture metaphorically?? There was a great danger of minimizing such pagan sins. Paul cautions against the teachings (opinions) of the false teachers. The soul is of infinite value for not be given entrance into heaven.

Idolaters/adulterers: The idolaters are likened to adulterers. Abandoning the the Lord for a foreign god was called prostitution or adultery. A spiritual harlot prostitutes oneself with worldly values, idolatry, paganism, and sin.

Sexual immorality: Paul points that what is legal does NOT mean it is beneficial for you. Paul also warns about being enslaved (dominated) by sinful activity. Sexual immorality, rampant in Corinth, has become mundane [commonplace] as food for the stomach. The body is not for immorality but for the Lord.

1Cor.15:32-33: “If at Ephesus I fought with beasts…Do not be lead astray; bad company corrupts good morals.” (Beasts: adversaries, evil spirits, idolaters, sorcerers, demon-possessed)

Gal.6:7: “Make no mistake: God is not mocked, for a person will reap what he sows, because the one who sows for his flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows for Spirit will reap eternal from the Spirit.” (Paul warns us not to be led astray by false teachers (false teaching). God already knows our character and actions. God will then judge us accordingly.)

1Jn.1:8: If we say, ‘we are without sin’, we deceive ourselves. (Denial of the condition of sin is self-deception and contrary to God. This allows for recurrence of sin.)

Different interpretations of Jesus:

1. Traditional/Historical: Savior, Lawgiver, emphasizing sound doctrine, repentance/conversion, doctrinal clarity, vertical organization structure and authority, Scripture and Tradition
2. Synodal: pilgrim, encounter, accompaniment, mutual listening, collaborative and co-responsible, horizontal organization and authority, gradual accompaniment of where people are (This is a version of Jesus DIFFERENT from reality, history and Tradition.)

Vatican’s Synodal LGBTQ “outreach”:

1. Pope Leo states that we must not attach too much importance on personal sexual sin. Instead, we must focus more on social sin.
2. Pope Leo appoints bishops who say that homosexuality/sodomy is no longer sinful. (This idea not surprisingly correlates with putting less focus on individual sin. Shocker!)
3. Pope Leo states that we must first change attitudes before we can change doctrine. (Pope Leo is OPEN TO CHANGING DOCTRINE. LET THAT SINK IN!)
4. Pope Leo continues to allow Fr. James Martin continue his LGBTQ “outreach” without any reservations. (What does this say about Pope Leo?)
5. A Vatican Biblical Commission stated that Sodom and Gomorrah was cause by a “lack of hospitality” but not by homosexuality/sodomy. (They are seeking to redefine sin!)
6. More and more bishops are promoting LGBTQ agendas while Pope Leo remains quiet.  (Pope Leo’s silence ====> tacit acceptance)
7. More and more bishops are ignoring and criticizing Church teachings, de-stigmatizing, normalizing, and even celebrating homosexuality.
8. A Synodal study group claims that homosexuality/sodomy is no longer sinful!
9. Conclusion: The Synodal Church is seeking to normalize homosexuality.

What is the mission of the Synodal Church? The Synodal Church SEEKS TO ALIGN ITSELF TO WHAT THE PEOPLE WANT IN THE CHURCH.

This Synodal outreach is succinctly summarized by Cardinal Americo Aguiar’s statement: “We don’t want to convert the young people to Christ or to the Catholic Church or anything like that at all.”  What more needs to be said.

The Synodal Church seeks to become a DIFFERENT Church than the one Jesus established.

Conclusion:

Planet, planetary, err, error, seduce, seduction, induce, fraud, betray

1Cor.15:32-33: Philosopher Heroclitus: the morals of the Temple of Artemis (Diana) crowd were worse than the morals of beasts. (Evidently, this was a permissive culture of idolatry, vice, and sexual immorality.)

Update: When Jesus associated with sinners, He told them to SIN NO MORE [Jn.8:11] and to NOT walk in darkness [Jn.8:12]. Jesus did NOT come to accommodate or tolerate peoples’ sinful behavior. This version of Jesus does NOT exist in Synodality. The Synodal Church teachers do NOT want to talk about sin!

Synodal criticism of traditional Catholic teachings: the LGBTQ community is now being “marginalized and disenfranchised” by the Church’s harsh and rigid teachings”. Therefore, these “rigid” Church teachings must be reformed and changed.

Straying from accepting reality: Pope Leo invokes the “prophets of doom” to counter valid criticism against Vatican II and Synodality. Not surprisingly, Pope Leo invokes Vatican II as the moral standard for Catholicism, not all of Catholic Tradition prior to Vatican II.

Straying from human kindness and decency: Not surprisingly, there some people celebrating death of Charlie Kirk. What more needs to be said.!

Calling upon young people to “farm aura” (too look cool) with Christ: This strays from Catholic traditional teachings. Authenticity in faith attracts the young people.

Synodal straying from Catholic teaching:

1. Pope Leo appoints an archbishop Fr. Mario Leon Dorado who said the Church is called to disappear so that the kingdom may grow. (This goes against Jesus’ command to make disciples and bring souls into heaven.)
2. Pope Leo is celebrating Nostra Aetate (This is doubling down on seeking unity of faith OUTSIDE the Catholic Church. This illustrates the Synodal Church’s intentions to become another Church.)
3. Fr. Stoia, the paster of St. Peter’s thinks the devil is quite likable. (What more needs to be said?)

The jurors in the Lindsay Clancy trial criticized the lone black juror for refusing to follow their social justice efforts to exonerate Lindsay Clancy. He strayed from their agenda.

The WBNA still cannot and will not determine what a woman is. They evidently do want to stray from their wokeness and virtual signaling.

Fiducia Supplicans is unfortunately setting the stage for transforming same-sex unions as a new “irregular marriage relationship” Non-liturgical blessings are now being given. This is another example of “slow walking” society’s acceptance of a new marriage relationship. (Change attitudes ===> change doctrine)

Cardinal Roche, claiming to be the primary source of authority, claims that the ecclesiology of the Church has changed. The TLM must go!

The Modernists within the Catholic Church are creating liturgical confusion, chaos, and scandal. These Modernists are seeking to remake Jesus’ Church into a Church made in the image of man and his lived experiences.

Idolatary:

1. When lived experiences TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER Church teachings, Synodal becomes an IDOL.
2. When LGBTQ “outreach” TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER Church teachings, LGBTQ “outreach” becomes an IDOL.
3. When the environment takes on the qualities of God ===> ecological worship, ecological spirituality, ecological sins, the environment becomes equal to God, blessing water and icebergs, sinning against the environment/God????

Pope Francis’ synodal Church continues to engage in spiritual harlotry (exchanging worldly values, secularism, sin, and evil with the Church). This synodal process is just another human tradition enacted by the Modernists. Masses are now being enculturated with pagan practices. Ex. Panchamama fertility idol

The bishops’ silence and cowardice: this failure to speak out and teach about out sinful activity will lead to many souls (both clergy and laity) in mortal danger.

Make no mistake God is already aware of the division, heresy, schism, and confusion in the Church. God will inevitably make His response known in reaction to these problems. There is already beginning an organic counter-movement, inspired by the Holy Spirit movement toward Tradition, reverence and piety.

“The primary duty of charity does not lie in the toleration of false ideas.” Pope Pius X

“We cannot say that all religions lead to god. That contradicts Christ.” Cardinal Sarah
