The Issue of Sexual Abuse by the Clergy

His Holiness Pope Pius XIII

Misdirected Emails and Letters

The Catholic Church under Ourselves, Pope Pius XIII, has been inundated of late with misdirected emails from sincere and honest persons concerned with the issue of sexual abuse by the clergy.   The people who write such emails feel betrayed by what they believe to be the Catholic Church.   Accordingly, they vent their justifiable anger. 

However, the keyword above is �misdirected.�   People who browse the web and find the website of the true Catholic Church at http://www.truecatholic.us/ somehow read no further than the title of the website.   They see the word �Catholic� and they erroneously think that this website is somehow related to the (false) church of John Paul II, & Benedict XVI, run out of the Vatican II in Rome.   Nothing could be further from the truth.  You see, the Devil, the master of lies, has continued to fool people as a way to get as many souls with him in horror of his everlasting pit.

We state unequivocally that the religion of John Paul II, then Benedict XVI,  is NOT the Catholic Church.  The clergy, including all the Novus Ordo cardinals, bishops and priests, who call John Paul II, then Benedict XVI their pope are NOT Catholic clerics.  And We take it one step further:  the laity who call  Benedict XVI, their pope have been duped by the leaders of that false religion into thinking it is a continuation of the Catholic Church.  It is not.

The Election of Pope Pius XIII

We were elected to the chair of St. Peter on October 24, 1998 after 40 years of sede vacante, meaning that during those 40 years the Seat of St. Peter was vacant.   We shall not in this document delve deeply into the justifications and validity of the Conclave of 1998 as that has already been in the public domain since 1998.  You can find the details at http://www.truecatholic.us/pope.

Issue of Sexual Abuse

With regard to issue of sexual abuse by the clergy, in any of its various forms, we state that those who have been accused (and some convicted) of sexual abuses are NOT Catholic clerics, and have not at any time been in the true Catholic Church under Ourselves as pope.   As God�s will would have it in this present day (May 2002), there are only 2 clerics who have the jurisdiction to serve the faithful, Ourselves and Fr. Robert Cardinal Lyons.   We pray for the day when the Catholic Church will be restored to her former glory, as in the days of pre-Vatican II, and pre-John XXIII, the first of the false popes.   We pray that vocations will increase so that people may have priests to administer to them the sacraments. 

We state unequivocally that if you have vented your concern and anger to the secretary of the true Catholic Church under Pope Pius XIII, your email has not reached your intended audience, which We assume to be the false church of the Vatican.   The Catholic Church under Ourselves shares your concern but has no control over the clerics of false pope John Paul II.

With regard to Sin

Any mortal sin leads to hell if one dies in that state.  Whether the sin is public or private, whether the sin is of thought, word or deed, the result is still the same when it comes to the just judgment which we all shall receive at death.   Public sins that effect the morals of young, innocent persons, are abhorrent to Ourselves and to the world at large that views the news of such scandals. 

See what Our Lord says in Matt. 18: 6-10:

�But he that shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be drowned in the depth of the sea.  Woe to the world because of scandals.  For it must needs be that scandals come: but nevertheless woe to that man by whom the scandal cometh.  And if thy hand, or thy foot, scandalize thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee.  It is better for thee to go into life maimed or lame, than having two hands or two feet, to be cast into everlasting fire.  And if thy eye scandalize thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee.  It is better for thee having one eye to enter into life, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.  See that you despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.�
Christ teaches humility, to beware of scandal, and to flee the occasions of sin: to denounce to the Church incorrigible sinners, and to look upon such as refuse to hear the Church as heathens.

Holier than Thou

Lest anyone think that We are claiming the �Holier than Thou� syndrome, We are not.  We know only too well that anyone can commit a sin.   Being a cleric or a layman of the one, true Catholic Church does not give one a fail-safe guarantee against committing sin.   But it does give one the benefit of having the truth and having the availability of the sacraments.  The Novus Ordo church of John Paul II has neither.  In the Sacrament of Penance, the priest forgives sins, and the Sacrament gives the penitent the peace of mind, and the actual grace to avoid sin in the future, if only the penitent makes the firm resolution to avoid sin. 

We Invite You

We invite you to study and learn of the true Catholic Church under Ourselves.  You must always remember that �Outside the Catholic Church, there is no salvation.�  That is a dogma, which everyone must believe.    Like it or not, the Catholic Church is the ONLY way to heaven.   If you perchance have sent a misdirected email on �sexual abuse by the clergy� to Our secretary, We hope that the information given here has given you the light to see the true situation.

We pray that all mankind are saved and none be lost.
