Part thirty-nine of “Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomini Domine, Hosanna in Excelsis” is still a work in progress, principally because I interrupted my writing on it to prepare this commentary about the tragic death of Lindsey Graham, a non-Catholic who believed that death would come to him on his terms (“I can’t die now), not God’s.

May Our Lady save us from such pride.

Dom Prosper Gueranger’s and Father Francis X. Weninger’s reflections on Saint Bonaventure are appended after the body of this commentary.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Bonaventure, pray for us.

I am offering you a revised and expanded  reflection on the holy life and work of Saint John Gualbert, whose feast is commemorated today, Sunday, July 12, 2026, the Seventh Sunday after Pentecost,  that was written many a moon ago. 

Work on part thirty-nine of "Benedictus Qui Venit in Nomini Domine, Hosanna in Excelsis" should be completed within twenty-four hour of this posting.

Once again, non-tax-deductible financial gifts are urgently needed at this time. Thank you. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John Gualbert, pray for us.

Saints Nabor and Felix, pray for us.

This concluding part of my current two-part series stresses how the denial of the doctrine of Original Sin and the existence of the devil as taken seriously enough by the current editors of the Vatican’s semi-official newspaper, L’Osservatore Romano, is a falsehood that has been becoming au courant since the so-called “Enlightenment” and the subsequent rise of Judeo-Masonry and its plethora of ideologies and “philosophies” promising secular salvation but produce only social and personal ruin.

I suppose it is time to write part thirty-nine of “Benedictus Qui Veni in Nomini Domine.” Stay turned.

Non-tax-deductible financial gifts are very much needed now as I must raise over one thousand dollars in the next four days. Please consider making a donation now. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius I, pray for us.

This is my commentary about Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV’s address to the National Constitution Center upon his acceptance of its “liberty” medal on Friday, July 3, 2026, the Feast of Pope Saint Leo II within the Octave of Saints Peter and Paul.

Non-tax-deductible financial gifts are very much needed at this time.

Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV’s statement on two hundred fiftieth anniversary of the promulgation of the Declaration of Independence, which was actually approved by the delegates of the Second Continental on July 2, 1776, which proved what I have been saying for over thirty years now: that the Calvinist-Judeo-Masonic principles upon which the United States of America was founded was and will ever remain very important building blocks used at the robber council to endorse what Holy Mother Church has always condemned as a matter of principle, religious liberty separation of Church and the religiously indifferentist civil state,  even though she has had to made concessions in the past two centuries to the practical realities of the situation facing their children in pluralist nations without ever once conceding anything to errors of any kind.

I will write an extensive commentary later today about Prevost/Leo’s statement, which summarized American religious indifferentism in just one paragraph when he, the  putative Vicar of Christ on earth, referred to God as “The One,” which is complete Judeo-Masonic religious indifferentism:

In accepting this award, I therefore pray that this, the 250^th anniversary of the founding of this great nation, may be the occasion of a solemn recommitment to these ideals that have made America a country that values peace and prosperity, a country characterized by generosity and nobility of heart. I commend all of you, as well as the future of the Nation, to the One who is himself the source of true freedom and lasting peace, the One whose very name is Peace.

May God bless America! Thank you! (Address of  Robert Francis Prevost/Leo XIV Acceptance of the Liberty Medal of the National Constitution Center (USA), 3 July 2026.)

“The One”?

Prevost/Leo should have just used George Washington’s “Great Architect” to refer to the “One” as the fake “pope” made not one reference to the Divine Redeemer, Christ the King.

Yes, the Potomac still flows into the Tiber, which is the title of my commentary about Prevost/Leo’s address yesterday, Friday, July 3, 2026, the Feast of Pope Saint Leo II within the Octave of Saints Peter and Paul

For the moment, though, I am reprising a slightly revised Catechism of the Social Reign of Christ the King that first appeared on this website on July 4, 2008.

Today is the First Saturday in the month of July. Please remember your monthly First Saturday devotions.

Viva Cristo Rey!

Our Lady of Guadalupe, pray for us.

All Holy Roman Pontiffs, pray for us

This is a fairly brief commentary about the episcopal consecrations performed by the Society of Saint Pius X in Econe, Switzerland, on Wednesday, July 1, 2026, the Solemnity of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ, and their subsequent excommunication by the conciliar revolutionaries yesterday, Thursday, July 2, 2026, the Feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

A final word now concerning my infirmed ladies, stating with Sharon, who got a digital X-Ray taken at a chiropractor’s office that showed her left was NOT broken, just badly bruised. Deo gratias! 

Our daughter’s abscessed tooth is responding to an antibiotic as she awaits an appointment with a biological oral surgeon in a distant city later this month.

Thank you for your prayers.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Leo II, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Today, Friday, July 3, 2026, is the Feast of Pope Saint Leo II within the Octaves of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and of Saints Peter and Paul. It is also the First Friday of July, the month of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Indeed, the material about Pope Saint Leo II being republished now has appeared in at least a score of cmmentaries on this website such as in  To Disobey a True Pope is to Disobey God Himself.

However, repetition is the mother of learning, and I am always aware that there might be a new reader of two who happens upon this site for the first time or accesses out of curiosity after learning about its existence from someone else.

A new commentary should appear within ten minutes of this republished reflection. 

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Leo II, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Today is the magnificent feast of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary to her cousin, Saint Elizabeth, and her preborn Divine Son’s preborn Precursor, Saint John the Baptist.

This date, July 2, marks the end of the period of Our Lady’s Visitation, which began on April 2, lasting until the day after the octave day of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist. Our Lady’s perfect Charity for her cousin and her Divine Son’s Precursor should prompt us to perform the Spiritual and Corporal Works of Mercy at all times, making sure as well to proclaim the Holy Name of Mary, she whom all generations are duty bound to call blessed, as the Mother of God who made possible our salvation by her perfect fiat to the will of God the Father at the Annunciation and who is the Queen of Heaven and on earth, the very Immaculate Conception who prays for us now and at the hour of our deaths.

I will home all day for the next several days after the events of the past two days. (Lucy's abscessed tooth is being treated with an course of antiobiotics and the wisdom tooth that has grown into a molar will be straightened by a biological oral surgeon in a city about five hours from us at some time in the next few weeks while Sharon has decided to use a walking boot before for her broken foot before she sees my podiatrist, whom I saw yesterday after Sharon decided to use the walking boot. Ah, but I had to run errands that saw me drive around 180 miles round trip in seven hours before returning home to attend to various duties prior to finally sitting down in my recliner chair around 11:15 p.m. The next commentary will be about the Society of Saint Pius X's episcopal consecrations that took place in Econe, Switzerland.)

A blessed Feast of the Visitation of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary to you all.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saints Peter and Paul, pray for us.

Saints Processus and Martinian, pray for us.
