Saint Gabriel, Mohammed and Islam
Saint Gabriel, Mohammed and Islam
by Fr Júlio Maria de Lombaerde
The author of this book, the great Belgian missionary and apologist, Father Júlio Maria de Lombaerde (1878-1944), spent most of his priestly life in Brazil.
Hearing from a fellow priest that there were some Muslims in Brazil, he decided to write a succinct, clear and simple explanation of the life and doctrine of Mohammed in order to provide them with “irrefutable proof of the entirely human origin of their sect and give Catholics more conviction and firmness in the practical profession of their religion, the only Divine one.”
“May these pages be a ray of light for souls and direct them towards the truth,” he writes. “This is the author’s only hope.”

The Suffering of Irish Catholics Under Cromwell and the Puritans
by Cardinal Francis Patrick Moran
“All the cruelty inflicted on the city of Rome by Nero and Attila, by the Greeks on Troy, by the Moors on Spain, or by Vespasian on Jerusalem – all has been inflicted on Ireland by the Puritans” (Dr. John Lynch, Archdeacon of Tuam. Eyewitness of the Puritan atrocities in Ireland.)
In this meticulously documented book, the Irish-born Cardinal Francis Patrick Moran, third Archbishop of Sydney, gives us the harrowing yet heroic story of the sufferings of the Irish Catholics under Oliver Cromwell and the Puritans. In it, we see how these wicked men were determined to annihilate the Catholic religion in Ireland and the terrible and bloodthirsty lengths they went to in order to achieve this. However, we also see how the power of God’s grace and the stalwart example of a virtuous clergy enabled the Catholics of the land to weather the horrendous storm, remain faithful to Christ and His Church and win the only victory that ultimately counts, the victory over the world, the flesh and the devil.

The Suffering of Irish Catholics Under Cromwell and the Puritans
Why Catholic Cannot be Masons
' The author, a former 32nd degree Mason, clearly shows why joining Masonry means embracing a false religion. Explains Masonic doctrines, history, rituals, oaths and curses, showing that Masonry is totally incompatible with Christianity and the Catholic Faith. Who is the god of Freemasonry? How does Freemasonry view the Holy Bible? What have the Popes said about Freemasonry? Are "Catholic Masons" excommunicated? How does a Catholic exit Freemasonry? '
A Catechism of Modernism
'Modernism is a heresy that was condemned by Pope St. Pius X (1903-1914). Yet it is the predominating error in the Catholic Church since Vatican II (1962-1965). This book exposes its errors. Called by St. Pius X the "synthesis of all heresies." St. Pius X commended the author of this catechism and expressed the hope that it would receive wide circulation. 160 pgs. PB 155pp'

The Memoirs of the Communist Infiltration into the Church
by Marie Carre
Absorbing and compelling reading from beginning to end, AA -1025 Memoirs of the Communist Infiltration Into the Church is a must read for every Catholic today and for all who would understand just what has happened to the Catholic Church since the 1960's.
In the 1960's, a French nurse, Marie Carre, attended an auto-crash victim who was brought into her hospital in a city she purposely does not name. The man lingered there near death for a few hours and then died. He had no identification on him, but he had a briefcase in which there was a set of quasi-autobiographical notes. She kept these notes and read them, and because of their extraordinary content, decided to publish them.
The result is this little book, AA-1025 Memoirs of the Communist Infiltration Into the Church, a strange and fascinating account of a Communist who purposely entered the Catholic priesthood along with many others, with the intent to subvert and destroy the Church from within. His strange yet fascinating and illuminating set of biographical notes, tells of his commission to enter the priesthood, his experiences in the seminary, and the means and methods he used and promoted to help effect from within the auto-dissolution of the Catholic Church. No one will read this book without a profound assent that something just like what is describer here must surely have happened on a wide scale in order to have disrupted the life of the Catholic Church so dramatically.

The Last Mass of Padre Pio
The Last Mass of Padre Pio
The Secret Soul of the Stigmatic Saint
by Alessandro Gnocchni and Mario Palmaro
On September 23, 1968 after having borne the stigmata for exactly 50 years, the saintly Padre Pio died. This holy mystic spent his life as a living imitation of Christ and is the only priest in history to bear the stigmata. During his life, in spite of the physical pain he endured, Fr. Pio continued to say his daily Mass. But part of his suffering was unknown. Fr. Pio wrote a petition appealing directly to Pope Paul VI so as to obtain permission, from the highest ecclesiastical authority on earth, to never be required to say the Novus Ordo Missae.
The existence of this petition was kept secret from the public . . . until now.
Things to learn about this holy friar:
- Mystical vision and calling to be an Alter Christus
- Life-long combat with the demonic spirits
- Profound physical suffering especially during the Canon of the Mass
- His loyalty to the traditions of the Church and the Mass of all times
- His pious admonitions to his spiritual children
“Later, as an aged Capuchin friar, the mere thought of the liturgical reform, which would take effect in 1969, was sufficient to raise in him a holy horror. Throughout his life the holy friar had been obedient even unto martyrdom, but at this time the only request he dared to put forth to the authorities of the Church was to be exempted from the novelties of the impending liturgical reform.”
For the first time published in English read the startling testimony and eyewitness accounts of close friends and spiritual sons of Padre Pio as they reveal his thoughts on the sanctity of the Mass, the changes occurring in the Church during his lifetime, and the chilling effects they would have on the future. Look behind the cloister wall and discover a side of Padre Pio you’ve never seen before.

Popes Against Modern Errors
Popes Against Modern Errors
16 Papal Documents
Hard-Hitting Condemnation of Many of Today's Most Noxious Errors
arranged and edited by Anthony J. Mioni, Jr
In 1789, the French Revolution took place and launched a host of religious, political and social errors which the Popes for over 160 years afterwards wrote and legislated against. Yet most of these errors have spread and today have filtered down to the common man... with the result that most people now take for granted many fundamental assumptions that are positively false! But almost from the beginning of these errors, the Popes spoke out as with one voice, inveighing against them.
Today, as we see these errors bearing evil fruit, many thoughtful Catholics are returning to those Papal documents which condemned these modern errors, to examine what the Popes have said all along about them. Here, in one handy volume, are the best and most famous of those papal denunciations: On Liberalism (Mirari Vos). Gregory XVI. 1832. On Current Errors (Quanta Cura). Pius IX. 1864. The Syllabus of Errors. Pius IX. 1864. On Government Authority (Diuturnum Illud). Leo XIII. 1881. On Freemasonry and Naturalism (Humanum Genus). Leo XIII. 1884. On the Nature of True Liberty (Libertas Praestantissimum). Leo XIII. 1888. On the Condition of the Working Classes (Rerum Novarum). Leo XIII. 1891. On Christian Democracy (Graves de Communi Re). Leo XIII. 1901. Syllabus Condemning the Errors of the Modernists (Lamentabili Sane). St. Pius X. 1907. On Modernism (Pascendi Dominici Gregis). St. Pius X. 1907. Our Apostolic Mandate (On the "Sillon"). St. Pius X. 1910. The Oath Against Modernism. St. Pius X. 1910. On the Feast of Christ the King (Quas Primas). Pius XI. 1925. On Fostering True Religious Unity (Mortalium Animos). Pius XI. 1928. On Atheistic Communism (Divini Redemptoris). Pius XI. 1937.
On Certain False Opinions (Humani Generis). Pius XII. 1950. After this book, the reader will be forced to conclude: "The Popes were right all along!" Only by heeding the advice and counsel of these enlightened Roman Pontiffs will the world be able to cast off its yoke of error and enjoy once more the true freedom Our Lord spoke of when He said, "If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." (John 8:31-32).

Against Luther's Babylonian Captivity
Defense of the Royal Assertion
Against Luther's Babylonian Captivity
by St John Fisher
Henry VIII was perhaps the best educated monarch to sit on the English throne since Alfred the Great, and was uniquely placed to put together a treatise refuting the errors of Martin Luther. Luther responded by hurling insults at the king. Thus, the greatest theologian in Christendom at the time, St. John Fisher, stepped into the fore, with a treatise defending Henry VIII’s treatise and at the same time, going for the jugular of Luther’s theology. Written in Latin for a European audience, Fisher marshals his mastery of the Church Fathers and Holy Scripture to not only defend the King’s book, but to shred Luther’s teaching.
Now, for the very first time in English, you can read Fisher’s masterful dismantling of Lutheran theology. In twelve chapters, Fisher demonstrates Luther’s own internal contradictions, his mischaracterization of the King’s arguments, and defense of Catholic doctrine on the Sacraments, the Eucharist, grace, and the refutation of Luther’s doctrines.
Contents
Chapter One: Luther’s Agitated Arrogance Is Openly Deceitful
Chapter Two: His Apology That Attempts to Cover Notable Vices Is in Vain
Chapter Three: Regarding the Faithful’s Communion, the Church’s Custom Should Be Observed
Chapter Four: The Substance of the Bread Does Not Remain with the Most Holy Body of Christ
Chapter Five: The Mass Is Not a Testament
Chapter Six: The Mass Is Properly Called a Sacrifice and a Work by Those of Right Faith
Chapter Seven: Certain Quibbling Subterfuges and Lying Sophisms Are Laid Bare
Chapter Eight: The Mass Is Not Solely a Promise
Chapter Nine: Some of Luther’s False Accusations against the King Are Done Away With
Chapter Ten: We Must Believe in the Fathers’ United and Harmonious Scriptural Interpretation
Chapter Eleven: The Judgment of Doctrine Belongs to the Fathers Rather Than to the People
Chapter Twelve: Orders and Matrimony Are Sacraments and Efficaciously Confer Grace
Paperback, size 9" x 6", 275 pages
Also available in Hardcover with dust jacket upon request (additional cost)

Harry Potter and the Paganization of Culture
Harry Potter and the Paganization of Culture
by Michael O'Brien
Master storyteller, best-selling novelist and artist Michael O'Brien - the man to whom CNN went for comment on Harry Potter - has penned the definitive work assessing the Potter phenomenon. This book is essential reading for all parents whose children have read or are considering reading the wildly popular offerings by J.K.Rowling and similar works such as Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. Although this is an analytical work, the reader will be captivated from the beginning, from the must-read preface onward.
O'Brien's earlier work, A Landscape with Dragons, delineated authentic Christian fantasy literature from its counterfeits. Now in Harry Potter and the Paganization of Culture, he contrasts Potter-world with C.S. Lewis's Narnia and with Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and specifically Harry with Frodo. For those whose children have consumed Potter, O'Brien's analysis will enable parents to comprehend the messages which have been fed their children and give them the points and arguments which will hopefully be the antidote to properly reset their moral order.
The book goes beyond Potter, however, to address other bestselling series such as Twilight by Stephenie Meyer and Phillip Pullman's The Golden Compass. In addition to these and other fantasy books, O'Brien reviews the films which they spawned.
In all, O'Brien's new book teaches Christians how to discern harmless fantasy literature and film from that which is destructive to heart, mind and soul.
"The corruption of Christian civilization's symbols is a centuries-old phenomenon, yet until the modern age the mutations and inversions, along with the making of new diabolic symbologies, remained on the fringes of society in secret societies and small esoteric cults. Now the culture of the cults is visible everywhere, and with the Harry Potter series is entering (and captivating) the mainstream. Through it, the corruption of symbols has moved to a new level of influence, and it has done so on a scale that is unprecedented in the history of literature. If we lose the language of true symbolism, we lose at a basic level of consciousness our way of knowing things as they are. Symbols are not items in some storage room or attic of the psyche that we can take up and discard at will, or rearrange without consequences. To tamper with them is to destabilize the very foundations of the house. While most Christians would never knowingly exchange symbols of evil for symbols of good, many have accepted a new realm of eclectic symbology that allows a mixture of good and evil symbols to influence their thoughts and feelings. But two contradictory symbol worlds cannot long remain in a state of peaceful co-existence within us. Either one or the other will come to dominate and will eventually demand the expulsion of the other." - Michael O'Brien

Either one or the other will come to dominate and will eventually demand the expulsion of the other." - Michael O'Brien

Catechism of Crisis in Church
Catechism of Crisis in Church
by Fr Matthias Gaudron
by Fr Matthias Gaudron
Is there a crisis in the Church today?
One would have to close one's eyes not to see that the Catholic Church is suffering a grave crisis. In the 1960's, at the time of the Second Vatican Council, there were hopes for a new springtime in the Church; exactly the opposite has come to pass. Thousands of priests have abandoned their office, and thousands of monks and religious have returned to secular life. There are very few vocations in Europe and not many in North America either; countless seminaries, convents, and religious houses have closed their doors. Many parishes lack priests, and religious congregations are obliged to abandon schools, hospitals, and homes for the aged. As Pope Paul VI lamented on June 29, 1972:
Through some crack, the smoke of Satan has entered the temple of God.

Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked
Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked
As the Secret Power Behind Communism
by Mgr George F. Dillon
The original title of this book, which was compiled from a series of lectures delivered in Edinburgh in October, 1884 by Mgr. Dillon, was The War of Antichrist with the Church and Christian Civilization.
The author wrote it "in order to do his part in carrying out the instruction given by the Sovereign Pontiff in the Encyclical Humanum Genus when he called upon the pastors of souls, to whom it was addressed, to 'instruct the people as to the artifices used by societies of this kind in seducing men and enticing them into their ranks, and as to the depravity of their opinions and the wickedness of their acts'.
Mgr. Dillon's work has already been honoured by the Holy Father himself with so marked and so unusual an approbation that there is no need for us to accord it any further praise than merely to take note of the fact. The book was presented to His Holiness, accompanied by an Italian version of its table of contents, and of long extracts from its principal sections, and Leo XIII was pleased to order that the Italian version should be completed, and the book printed and published at Rome at his own expense." (The Month, Sept. 1885). Despite the fact that the lectures were delivered by a Catholic prelate to an audience composed mainly of members of his own faith, we feel that the subject of international political skullduggery is one which cannot fail to interest Catholic and non-Catholic alike, the more so indeed since events in the course of the decades following the original publication of this book have confirmed the lecturer's thesis.
The last four editions have appeared under the title of Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked. Mgr. Dillon does not speak explicitly of the two currents of thought and action proceeding from the Masonic French Revolution, namely, the current of Rousseauist-Lockian Masonic Liberalism and the current of Socialism and Communism. Implicitly, however, he does so when, on the one hand, he foreshadows the United States of Europe and World Federalism and, on the other, quotes the infamous Declaration of the International in 1868. This Declaration, formulated at the International Congress held at Geneva in 1868 and quoted by Mgr. Dillon in his preface, is well worth reproducing, at least in part. It runs as follows: "The object of the International Association of Workmen, as of every other Socialist Association, is to do away with the parasite and the pariah. Now what parasite can be compared to the priest. "God and Christ, these citizen-Providences, have been at all times the armour of Capital and the most sanguinary enemies of the working classes. It is owing to God and to Christ that we remain to this day in slavery. It is by deluding us with lying hopes that the priests have caused us to accept all the sufferings of this earth. It is only after sweeping away all religion, and after tearing up even to the last roots every religious idea that we can arrive at our political and social ideal. "Down, then, with God and with Christ! Down with the despots of heaven and earth! Death to the priests! Such is the motto of our grand crusade." In a note on page 20 of the original edition Mgr. Dillon returned to the question of the direction of Freemasonry, which he had mentioned in his preface. He there says: "The Jewish connection with modern Freemasonry is an established fact everywhere manifested in its history. The Jewish formulas employed by Freemasonry, the Jewish traditions which run through its ceremonial, point to a Jewish origin, or to the work of Jewish contrivers .... Who knows but behind the Atheism and desire of gain which impels them to urge on Christians to persecute the Church and destroy it, there lies a hidden hope to reconstruct their Temple, and in the darkest depths of secret society plotting there lurks a deeper society still which looks to a return to the land of Judah and to the rebuilding of the Temple of Jerusalem?"

Against the Heresies
Against the Heresies
Comments on the Papal Encyclicals condemning Modern Errors infecting the Church and Society
Comments on the Papal Encyclicals condemning Modern Errors infecting the Church and Society
by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre
Here's the book for a world pretending everything is gray - even truth. Saint Irenaeus gave us the first Against the Heresies (Adversus Haereses) in the second century. In the 20th, it is as of a second Irenaeus that we present these conferences by Archbishop Lefebvre under the same title. They both address the same problem: Man playing God.
Archbishop Lefebvre analyzes the various aspects of Liberalism in the same way Irenaeus did of Gnosticism. As Saint Irenaeus addressed the philosophical errors and presented the Catholic response, which is the rule of the Catholic Faith in the Creed, so Archbishop Lefebvre, too, shows how the modern errors in the Church and Society are so opposed to our unchanging Catholic Faith. The solution is the same. Catholic Tradition. The Deposit of Faith. The authority of the Holy See.
Both appeal to the one test of Truth, that is, "the teaching of the Church of Rome." In fact, Archbishop Lefebvre's defense is but a commentary on the encyclicals of the popes. They're dead, but their teaching shouldn't be. Learn why these encyclicals were buried with them.
Six popes resurrected from the last 150 years. Eleven mind-blowing encyclicals. Against the heresies and the heretics, especially the Freemasons and the Liberals. All taught by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre in the style of his other most popular work, Open Letter to Confused Catholics.

Breaking With the Past
Breaking With the Past
Catholic Principles Abandoned at the Reformation
by Right Rev. Francis Aidan Gasquet, Abbot-General of the English Benedictines
In these days when there is a strong movement afoot without the fold to restore the unity of the Christian Faith, we can indulge the hope that the four lectures of the distinguished abbot will prove fruitful. They are on subjects so vital to unity, i.e., the supremacy of the pope, the sacrifice of the Mass, the eternal priesthood, the universal Church. We pray that these sermons will attract the attention of many outside the Church, and make them meditate on the bitterness of breaking from their “Father's House”. May God's holy grace prove stronger than prejudice, as it has so often in the past, and may it soften the hearts which have been hardened by cruel legislation rather than by wilfull disobedience.

PREFACE
The Right Rev. Francis Aidan Gasquet, Abbot-General of the English Benedictines and Chairman of the Commission appointed for the revision of the Vulgate or Latin Bible, gave a course of sermons at the High Mass in St. Patrick's Cathedral on the Sundays of Advent, 1913, on “Catholic Principles Abandoned at the Reformation”.
These sermons attracted very wide attention. The subject chosen, while seemingly a familiar one, proved most interesting to the vast congregations, drawn by the fame of the preacher as an historian of the Reformation period. His manner of treatment had much to do with the profound interest manifested by his listeners.
All attempt at pulpit oratory was cast aside, and the preacher confined himself to a clear unvarnished tale of the causes that led up to the so-called Reformation. He showed himself a complete master of the question. As announced in his opening sermon, the Rt. Rev. Abbot did not seek to be controversial, but purely historical, and this purpose he followed to the end, basing all his statements on documents whose authenticity could not be called into question. He made clear what Cardinal Manning has so often repeated, that England did not give up the Catholic Faith of centuries, but was simply robbed of it.
It was my pleasure to be present at all the sermons, and to be held under the spell of his simple eloquence, and to experience the appeal his strong arguments must have made. The main thesis which the learned abbot sought to establish was that the doctrines of the Church in England had been reconstructed under Lutheran and Calvinistic influence, and the central beliefs held by the Church from the time of Christ had been rejected. This was especially true of the priesthood. By Act of Parliament, a new form of ordination, carefully and systematically excluding every word that could be interpreted to mean that the candidate was to be a sacrificing priest, was introduced.
In these days when there is a strong movement afoot without the fold to restore the unity of the Christian Faith, we can indulge the hope that the four lectures of the distinguished abbot will prove fruitful. They are on subjects so vital to unity, i.e., the supremacy of the pope, the sacrifice of the Mass, the eternal priesthood, the universal Church. We pray that these sermons will attract the attention of many outside the Church, and make them meditate on the bitterness of breaking from their “Father's House”. May God's holy grace prove stronger than prejudice, as it has so often in the past, and may it soften the hearts which have been hardened by cruel legislation rather than by wilful disobedience.
