The Demise of Karol Wojtyla

"And all the earth was in admiration after the beast." (Apoc. 13:3)

A week ago today, the world watched five million mourners gather in Rome to lay to rest a man all believe to be one of the greatest diplomats, peacemakers, philosophers and religious leaders of his time. Broadcasters agreed across the board that that no other world leader in recent history had received the kudos and adulation accorded to Karol Wojtyla by members of all religions across the globe.

As one commentator observed, this was completely out of character where the death of a pope is concerned. Pope Paul IV's pontifical statue was demolished following his death; its head was tossed into the Tiber River. All the monuments erected in Rome to his family members also were destroyed. Pope Pius IX's funeral was fraught with Masonic threats of all kinds and an attempt was made to deposit his body into the Tiber. Catholics are taught to fear for their souls if they are loved by the world, for Christ told us: "If the world hate you, know ye that it hath hated me before you. If you had been of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you," (Jn. 15:18-19).

According to the almighty media, a great man was laid to rest April 8, 2005. According to Christ, invisible Head of the Mystical Body, a man of the world was laid to rest and worldlings love their own. But this man was no ordinary worldling; this man claimed to be the spiritual leader of millions of Catholics worldwide. That he was not a true pope but an antipope, and in fact an antichrist, was scarcely something the media noted in their monotonous coverage of his life accomplishments. But broadcast journalists did bring home one thing loud and clear to those aware of Wojtyla's true identity: all the earth admired him even after his death, fulfilling yet another apocalyptic prophecy, (Apoc. 13:3).

As demonstrated in the book Imposter Popes and Idol Altars, Wojtyla and his three predecessors constituted the four beasts of Antichrist. Paul 6 (Giovanni Montini) fulfilled Daniel's prophecy concerning Antichrist proper by ordering the cessation of the continual sacrifice of the Mass, (Dan. 8:12 ). Roncalli played the false prophet, acting as front man for Montini and appointing him cardinal, something Pope Pius XII refused to do. Luciani's "death wound" was healed when Wojtyla kept the John Paul tradition alive, although this verse of Apocalypse primarily refers to the revival of Roman paganism according to most Apocalypse commentators.

For if Wojtyla was not a true pope, he was surely Pontifex Maximus, after the pattern of all those Roman Emperors before him. No man since the days of the Roman Empire has done more to revive pagan religions than Karol Wojtyla. Known for his religious tolerance; a champion of religious liberty for all, it mattered not to Wojtyla that true popes before him had called his teaching insanity. Nor did it disturb him that Catholicism had refused since its inception to acknowledge pagan religions per Christ's own teaching that membership in His one, true Church on earth and recognition of Her valid head was the only guarantee of salvation.

Now we must endure the demands of his ardent followers for canonization. Wojtyla's kingdom was definitely of this world, and it is the roar of the crowds for his exaltation more surely than any other event during his time in office that brands him as antichrist extraordinaire. Proof of this lies in the startling contrast between antipope Wojtyla and the God-man he claimed as his master. The cheering crowds congratulating JP2 as a champion of tolerance, goodness, peace; the jeering mob that greeted Our Lord with their accusations of possession, conspiracy to overthrow the government, disturbance of the peace.
