It is 100% certain you're headed for Hell ...
for rejecting the Catholic Dogma ...
Warning: There are no bishops or priests in these times
< < On this site ... you will discover how you are being sent into Hell forever ... your willingness to be deceived is making you eternally culpable > >
1. The Original Sin of Adam closed Heaven for all men (sanctifying grace was lost) ... Hell became the only possible destination for the immortal souls of men. 2. God re-opened Heaven by founding the Catholic Church and re-introducing sanctifying grace to men's souls ... the same grace which Adam and Eve had lost.
We are currently in the Great Apostasy (world-wide rejection of God's Catholic Dogma), these warnings apply: 3.Warning 1: A non-Catholic anti-Christ cult (the vatican-2 heretic cult) took over all Catholic properties on 8 Dec 1965 ("v-2 council" close date).
[Section 12, 13] 4.Warning 2:No one Ordained those that you think are Priests ... all Bishops of the "v-2 council" were automatically excommunicated on 8 Dec 1965.
[Section 13.2] 5.Warning 3: Your fake "priests" turned you into heretics ... the stage shows are not Mass ... participation in the vatican-2 heresy excommunicates. [Section 13.2.2] 6.Warning 4: Top level view ... why there is not a single Catholic Bishop or Priest in the world. God's Catholic Church is devastatingly small in numbers. [Section 13.6] All vatican-2-ists: You are excommunicated from the Catholic Church. You must Abjure your heresy.

7. One can still be Catholic and get to Heaven with a proper baptism in water
[Section 7] ... believing the Dogmas ... and keeping free from mortal sin. [Section 10.1] 8. All grace, both actual and sanctifying grace, starts with God and comes into the world ... by way of the Blessed Virgin ... as Jesus Christ Himself did. [Section 4, 4.4] 9a. The Old Testament Israelite religion was the Catholic Faith unfulfilled ... the "judaism" fable started about 200 B.C. Jesus Christ was not a jew. [Section 39.1, 39.4] 9b. The "koran" is wrong ... Mohammed was not a prophet ... "allah" does not exist. The so called "allah god" makes countless errors in the "koran". [Section 113] 10.All baptized heretics are excommunicated from Christianity and headed for Hell ... with the world's pagans (those not properly baptized in water).

The Catholic Dogma & Citations regarding Automatic
Excommunication for believing heresy or
rejecting any Catholic Dogma
Ninety-four (94) total citations ... Sources of Dogma,
Ordinary Magisterium, and Scripture defense of Dogma
Again ... believing heresy against any Catholic Dogma ... causes
your Automatic Excommunication from Christianity
Physical participation in a heretical society such as the ...
"vatican-2" heretic cult, "sspx", "lutheran", "baptist", "evangelical", "methodist",
"anglican", etc. ... also causes your Automatic Excommunication
from Christianity (the Catholic Church) ... see Section 13.2.2
St. Thomas Aquinas, Doctor of the Church, died 1274 A.D.
"All those who deny one article of Faith ... are by that very fact excommunicated."
~ ~ ~
Automatic excommunication ... is incurred by ...
1. Physical participation in a heretical society such as the "vatican-2" jew-heretic cult, "sspx", "cmri", "sspv", "independents", etc. ... or any other building with a Catholic sign out front.
2. Believing the heresies of a heretical society such as the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult, "sspx", "cmri", "sspv", "independents", etc. ... even though you may have already (and correctly) physically left the vatican-2 cult.
3. Not condemning and anathematizing heretics such as the leaders of the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult, "sspx", "cmri", "sspv", "independents", etc. ... the people who are dresssed up like Catholic priests and bishops.
4. Communing with heretics such as the heretics who run the meeting halls of the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult, "sspx", "cmri", "sspv", "independents", etc. ... the people who are dressed up like Catholic priests and bishops.
Background 1:
There are no Catholic bishops or priests in the world at this time. The people dressed like bishops and priests and who reside in the buildings that have Catholic signs out front, are simply group leaders for the vatican-2 cult, that has taken over all of our Catholic properties around the world. On 8 December 1965 all of the (apparent) bishops at the "vatican-2 council" (about 2,500) ... approved the mountain of heresy that was in the "council" documents, they ceased being bishops on the said date. After their automatic excommunication they could no longer Ordain priests or Consecrate bishops. Catholic jurisdiction (but not the Catholic Faith (the Dogma) disappeared from the world. See Section 13.6 of this site.
Background 2: This is an exceedingly important Section for all people who are in vatican-2 meeting halls (the buildings with the Catholic signs out front). You are physically involved in a non-Catholic cult, the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult which was founded in 1965 at the Vatican. This places you in heresy and outside of the Catholic Church. Absent any physical participation in the v-2 cult, if you believe any of the vatican-2 cult heresy, then you are likewise automatically excommunicated and outside of the Catholic Church for heresy. All of the non-vatican-2 property (and persons) with Catholic signs ("sspx", "sspv", "cmri", "Thuc line", other "independents") are all automatically excommunicated for violation of the Catholic Dogma on Jurisdiction and Governance (and other heresies), see Sections 87, 99, and 105.
Left to right: Joseph Ratzinger and Jorge Bergoglio committing heresy which re-confirms their decades old automatic excommunications (1) and (2) Lighting menorahs (acting like "judaism" is not a fraud) (3) Heretic Wojtyla kissing the "koran" (4) Bergoglio approving of "orthodox" heretic cults
~ ~ ~
Introduction to the below Catholic Dogma and Citations:
1. The Catholic Church supplies the following teachings regarding automatic excommunication for those who believe heresy against the Catholic Dogma ... write, speak, or perform heretical actions (such as lighting menorahs) against the Catholic Dogma.
2. Of course the Catholic Church ... has frequently declared people to be heretics ... by some process or procedure. But these procedures are simply making public an automatic excommunication that has already taken place in the heretic's immortal soul.
3.An added layer of deception in our time ... is that the soul damning heretics pictured above are the heads of the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult which was founded on 8 December 1965 at the Vatican ... they are not head of the Catholic Church. The vatican-2 jew-heretic cult does not have the Office of the Papacy, bishops, or priests ... only the Catholic Church has these offices ... which are not filled at this time.

Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum, 29 June 1896, Para 9 >

Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Ipso facto means: "by the very fact itself". By the very fact that the heretic is a heretic means he is ... without a personal examination excommunicated ... without a formal process.

"Likewise all other things which have been transmitted, defined and declared by the sacred Canons and the ecumenical Councils, especially the sacred Trent, I accept unhesitatingly and profess; in the same way whatever is to the contrary, and whatever heresies have been condemned, rejected and anathematized by the Church, I too condemn, reject and anathematize."

Note 1: Heretics are automatically excommunicated by not being in communion with Rome (the Catholic Church).

Pope Pius IX, Quartus Supra, 6 January 1873, Paragraph 6 >
"The chief deceit used to conceal the new schism is the name of 'Catholic'.

It has always been the custom of heretics and schismatics to call themselves Catholics and to proclaim their many excellences in order to lead peoples and princes into error."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Groups that are claiming to be Catholic ... but are not ... people in these groups are automatically excommunicated, automatically outside the Catholic Church.
Council of Carthage XII, Canon 57, 419 A.D. -- Ordinary Magisterium >
"Those who as were baptized by the donatists, and not yet being able to know the pernicious character of their error, and afterward when they had come to the use of reason, had received the knowledge of the truth, abhorred their former error, (...) having anathematized their error may be received by the imposition of the hand into the one Church, the pillar as it is called, and the one mother of all Christians, where all these sacraments are received unto salvation and everlasting life; even the same sacraments which obtain for those persevering in heresy the heavy penalty of damnation."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Clearly presumes automatic excommunication without a process taking place ... until the heretic makes an abjuration of his heresy.
Pope Benedict XIV, Magnae Nobis, 29 June 1748, Paragraph 4 >
"Clement XI, in the Congregation of the Holy Office held in his presence on June 16, 1710, ordered the Archbishop of Malines to give no permission or dispensation for marriages to be celebrated between a contracting Catholic and a heretic unless the abjuration of heresy had indeed preceded."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: The heretic marrying the Catholic ... must make a Formal Abjuration of his/her heresy before the marriage. The heretic is automatically outside of the Catholic Church ... thus requiring the Abjuration to become Catholic.

Note: Heretic marrying a Catholic is automatically excommunicated ... and must make a Formal Abjuration of heresy before the marriage.
Starting about 150 years ago Pope Pius IX had many citations regarding ... keeping the entire Faith to be saved because ... God knew that Satan’s
vatican-2 apostasy (rejection of the Dogma) was right around the corner. Also, the citations on this subject from the Vatican Council of 1870
are the work of Pius IX ... and not much later (in 1914) three anti-Popes ("benedict-15", "pius-11", and "pius-12") reigned ... who
put all the anti-Christ apostates in place who signed approval of the "vatican-2 council" document heresies (over 200 of them).
Continuing with the citations ...
Pope Pius IX, Qui Pluribus, On Faith and Religion, 9 Nov 1846, Paragraph 19 >
"You must also care for and defend the Catholic faith with episcopal strength and see that the flock entrusted to you stands to the end firm and unmoved in the faith. For unless one preserves the faith entire and uninjured, he will without doubt perish forever."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Pius IX instructing on keeping the entire faith or perishing ... clearly presumes automatic excommunication without a formal process taking place.

Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Pius IX instructing on keeping the entire Catholic faith ... which alone prepares for salvation ... presumes automatic excommunication without a formal process.

"In particular, ensure that the faithful are deeply and thoroughly convinced of the truth of the doctrine that the Catholic faith is necessary for attaining salvation."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Pius IX instructing that keeping the Catholic Faith as necessary for attaining salvation ... presumes automatic excommunication without a formal process.
Pope Pius IX, Qui Pluribus, On Faith and Religion, 9 Nov 1846, Paragraph 20 >
"Never cease to instruct all men in it ... never tolerating and letting pass anything which could in the slightest degree defile the purity of this faith. With the same great strength of mind, foster in all men their unity with the Catholic Church, outside of which there is no salvation."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Pius IX citing again the necessity of keeping the purity of the Faith ... required to be in the unity of the Church ... presumes that one automatically removes himself without a process taking place.
Pope Pius IX, Qui Pluribus, On Faith and Religion, 9 Nov 1846, Paragraph 31 >
"In your compassionate mercy you seek out and overtake with your love the straying and perishing sheep ... You place them paternally on your shoulders and lead them back to the fold ... from the rage, assault and snares of ravening wolves. You keep them away from poisonous pasture land and drive them on to safe ground, and in all possible ways you lead them by deed, word and example to the harbor of eternal salvation."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Pius IX identifies those who are not keeping the Catholic Faith as straying and perishing sheep ... outside of the Catholic Church ... without a formal process of excommunication taking place.
Pope Pius IX, Quanta Cura, Condemning Current Errors, 8 Dec 1864, Paragraph 6 >
"Amidst, therefore, such great perversity of depraved opinions, we, well remembering our Apostolic Office, and very greatly solicitous for our most holy Religion, for sound doctrine and the salvation of souls which is intrusted to us by God, and (solicitous also) for the welfare of human society itself, have thought it right again to raise up our Apostolic voice. Therefore, by our Apostolic authority, we reprobate, proscribe, and condemn all the singular and evil opinions and doctrines severally mentioned in this letter, and will and command that they be thoroughly held by all children of the Catholic Church as reprobated, proscribed and condemned."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Pius IX identifying that the salvation of souls is intrusted to the Catholic Church ... presuming excommunication without a formal process ... identifies other opinions as depraved (corrupt, evil, debased) and condemned.
Pope Clement XII, In Eminenti, Para 3, 28 April 1738 >
"Prohibited several societies, assemblies, meetings, gatherings, fellowships, or associations commonly called de` Liberi Muratori or Francs-Macons, or identified by whatever other designation, having been dispersed widely then in certain regions, and each day becoming more powerful, admonishing each and every one of Christ's faithful, under pain of excommunication ipso facto without any declaration needing to be incurred."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Ipso facto = automatic (by the fact alone).

Saint Thomas Aquinas, died 1274 A.D. >
"Prayer can be offered for the excommunicated, although this should be done apart from prayers which are offered for members of the Church." This does not necessarily involve a confusion of the Church's laws which exclude from the roster of its faithful followers the names of those who have cut themselves off from it."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Pope Leo X, Condemning the errors of Martin Luther, Para 11, 15 June 1520 >
"We condemn, reprobate, and reject completely each of these theses or errors as either heretical, scandalous, false, offensive to pious ears or seductive of simple minds, and against Catholic truth. By listing them, we decree and declare that all the faithful of both sexes must regard them as condemned, reprobated, and rejected . . . We restrain all in the virtue of holy obedience and under the penalty of an automatic major excommunication."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: : One may see the terms ... minor and major excommunication. Minor excommunication, in times past, was prohibition from receiving the Sacraments (in times when they were available) ... not full separation from the Catholic Church ... as is automatic excommunication for heresy.
Pope Leo X, Condemning the errors of Martin Luther, Para 11, 15 June 1520 >

Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Archbishop Purcell, address at the Vatican Council of 1870 >
"The question was also raised by a Cardinal, 'What is to be done with the Pope if he becomes a heretic?' From the moment he becomes a heretic he is not the head or even a member of the Church. The Church would not be, for a moment, obliged to listen to him when he begins to teach a doctrine the Church knows to be a false doctrine, and he would cease to be Pope, being deposed by God Himself."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Venerable Robert Bellarmine, Cardinal, De Romano Pontifice, II, 30 >
"A pope who is a manifest heretic automatically (per se) ceases to be Pope and head, just as he ceases automatically to be a Christian and a member of the Church. Wherefore, he can be judged and punished by the Church. This is the teaching of all the ancient Fathers who teach that manifest heretics immediately lose all jurisdiction."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note 1: "Per se" means: "By itself". The word jurisdiction means governing power and governing responsibility.
Note 2: Venerable Robert Bellarmine uses the word manifest in this quote, but someone’s heresy does not have to be public and manifest to cause his automatic excommunication as noted in the above dogmatic citations. This citation by Robert Bellarmine is not dogmatic, but it is part of the Ordinary Magisterium because it is in agreement with the Dogma regarding automatic excommunication for heresy.
Saint Antoninus, died 1459 A.D., cited in Actes de Vatican I. V. Frond pub. >
"In the case in which the Pope would become a heretic, he would find himself, by that fact alone and without any other sentence, separated from the Church. A head separated from a body cannot, as long as it remains separated, be head of the same body from which it was cut off. A Pope who would be separated from the Church by heresy, therefore, would by that very fact itself cease to be head of the Church. He could not be a heretic and remain Pope, because, since he is outside of the Church, he cannot possess the keys of the Church."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Saint Francis De Sales, Doctor of the Church, The Catholic Controversy, pp. 305-306 >
"Now when he (the Pope) is explicitly a heretic, he falls ipso facto from his dignity and out of the Church ..."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Ipso facto means: "by the very fact itself". By the very fact that the heretic is a heretic means he is, without a personal examination, excommunicated ... without a formal process.
Venerable Robert Bellarmine, De Romano Pontifice, II, 30 >
"This principle is most certain. The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope, as Cajetan himself admits (ib. c. 26). The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member; now he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian (lib. 4, epist. 2), St. Athanasius (Scr. 2 cont. Arian.), St. Augustine (lib. De great. Christ. Cap. 20), St. Jerome (contra Lucifer.) and others; therefore the manifest heretic cannot be Pope."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Venerable Robert Bellarmine, Cardinal, 1542-1621 A.D. >
"St. Cyprian (lib. 4, epist. 2) who speaks as follows of Novatian, who was Pope in the schism (i.e. antipope of 251 A.D.) which occurred during the pontificate of St. Cornelius (251-253 A.D.): ‘He would not be able to retain the episcopate (i.e. of Rome), and, if he was made bishop before, he separated himself from the body of those who were, like him, bishops, and from the unity of the Church.’ According to what St. Cyprian affirms in this passage, even had Novatian been the true and legitimate Pope, he would have automatically fallen from the pontificate, if he separated himself from the Church."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Saint Alphonsus Maria Liguori, Doctor of the Church, died 1787 A.D., Verita della Fede, III, VIII. 9-10 >
"If, however, God were to permit a Pope to become a notorious and contumacious heretic, he would by such a fact cease to be Pope, and the Apostolic chair would be vacant."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: A person’s heresy does not have to be notorious (widely and unfavorably known) for that soul to be automatically excommunicated from the Catholic Church, privately held heresy also causes your automatic excommunication.
Cardinal Billot, 1846-1931 A.D. >
"Once the hypothesis that a Pope can become a known and public heretic is conceded as a possibility, it would follow that it must be admitted without hesitation that such a Pope would ipso facto lose his Papal authority since, in betraying the faith, he would by his own will, have separated himself from the body of the Church."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Again, a person’s heresy does not have to "known and public" for that soul to be automatically excommunicated from the Catholic Church, privately held heresy also causes your automatic excommunication.
F.X. Wernz, P. Vidal, Ius Canonicum. Rome: Gregorian 1943. 2:453 >
"For he who is no longer a member of the body of the Church, i.e. the Church as a visible society, cannot be the head of the Universal Church. But a Pope who fell into public heresy would cease by that very fact to be a member of the Church. Therefore he would also cease by that very fact to be the head of the Church. Indeed, a publicly heretical Pope, who, by the commandment of Christ and the Apostle must even be avoided because of the danger to the Church." (Ius Canonicum. Rome: Gregorian 1943. 2:453)
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.

Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum, Paragraph 9, 29 June 1896 >
"No one who merely disbelieves in all (these heresies) can for that reason regard himself as a Catholic or call himself one. For there may be or arise some other heresies, which are not set out in this work of ours, and, if any one holds to a single one of these he is not a Catholic."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum, Paragraph 15, 29 June 1896 >
"No one, therefore, unless in communion with Peter can share in his authority, since it is absurd to imagine that he who is outside can command in the Church."
Automatic excommunication for heresy ... No process or procedure required.
Note: Leo XIII stating that to be with Peter is to be in communion with the formal teachings of the Papacy (the Dogma). If you are against the formal teachings of the Papacy (the Dogma) such as the Dogma on automatic excommunication for heresy ... you place yourself outside of the Catholic Church.

The below citations do not apply to the vatican-2 jew-heretic cult or its "leaders" ... Bergoglio (headed for Hell, Ratzinger (headed for Hell), Wojtyla (in Hell), Montini (in Hell), Roncalli (in Hell), Luciani (in Hell) -- they only apply to the Catholic Church. We supply them here for more teaching on this subject.
Wojtyla, et al. lost their souls as they were automatically excommunicated for physical participation in the vatican-2 cult, as the group leaders of this cult they enforced the vatican-2 heresies on our formerly Catholic properties. They died unrepentant without publicly condemning their publicly promulgated heresy, they died outside of the Catholic Church.
The vatican-2 cult does not have the Office of the Papacy ... but since the vatican-2 cult is in control of our formerly Catholic properties they act and speak as if they have the Papacy. Only the Catholic Church has the Office of the Papacy.
