About this sermon
In this sermon, we come to the end of the liturgical year and turn our eyes toward the end of the world, not with fear or panic, but with confidence in God’s providence. Drawing from Cardinal Newman, Church history, and Scripture (especially 2 Thessalonians 2), Father explains how the French Revolution serves as a type — a foreshadowing — of the Great Apostasy and the abomination of desolation. You’ll learn what a type is in Catholic theology, and how events that really happened in history can prefigure future events, just as manna prefigured the Blessed Sacrament. Using that lens, this talk explores how the French Revolution mirrors what may come at the end of time. Father examines: The crisis in the Church before the Revolution: Gallicanism and Jansenism How liturgical abuses and the loss of devotion to Our Lady prepared the ground The influence of Freemasonry and the suppression of the Jesuits in 1773 The moral corruption of society and deliberate demoralization of the people The violent de-Christianization of France: desecrated churches, false worship, and the “goddess of Reason” in Notre Dame The drive for depopulation, the Reign of Terror, and the war on civilization itself Throughout the sermon, Father shows how the Revolution’s demoralization, de-Christianization, depopulation, and destruction foreshadow future worldwide events. The French Revolution is presented not just as a political upheaval, but as a spiritual warning — a type of the Great Apostasy that may one day unfold on a global scale. Above all, we are reminded that the most important question is not when we live, but how we die. If we die in the state of grace, we are saved. God has chosen this time in history for us to become saints. 0:00 – Intro: End of the liturgical year & end times 0:41 – What is a “type” in Catholic theology? 1:36 – The French Revolution as a type of the Great Apostasy 2:34 – Crisis in the Church: Gallicanism explained 3:57 – Jansenism: A “Catholicized Calvinism” and its effects 6:54 – Liturgical simplification, loss of devotions & Austria example 7:54 – Freemasonry in 18th-century France 8:46 – Pope Leo XIII on Masonic goals for revolution 9:36 – 1773: Suppression of the Jesuits and its consequences 11:12 – Voltaire: “Missionary of the devil” and his chilling prophecy 12:12 – Moral atmosphere, pornography, and financial crisis in France 13:32 – Four lenses: Demoralization, De-Christianization, Depopulation, Destruction 13:34 – Demoralization: Deliberate corruption of the people 14:47 – Sexual anarchy and breakdown of morals during the Revolution 15:59 – St. Maximilian Kolbe on Freemasonry & corrupted morals 16:34 – De-Christianization: Church property seized & Civil Constitution of the Clergy 17:20 – Oaths, schism, and the persecution of faithful priests 17:36 – September Massacres: Martyrdom of priests in Paris 18:51 – Marat, hatred, and a false “sacred heart” – a blasphemous cult 19:35 – Abolishing the monarchy and the Christian calendar 20:25 – Festival of Reason in Notre Dame: A false goddess in a holy place 21:36 – Donkey procession, desecration, and satanic mockery of the Faith 22:58 – Churches closed, Sacred Heart signs criminalized 23:29 – Depopulation agenda: plans to eliminate most of France 25:07 – Destruction of civilization: war on culture, art, and manners 25:57 – Summary: The French Revolution as a type of the Great Apostasy 26:44 – Aftermath: A ruined France ready for a “savior” 27:35 – Closing: What this means for us and teaser for next talk For more please visit http://www.veritascaritas.com & please remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
