The things that we thought would never be in the open 20 years ago, now they're in the open.
00:00:05.760
Be prepared for cannibalism. Be prepared for open sexual activity in the streets.
00:00:13.240
Be prepared for lawlessness like we've never seen in this country anyway.
00:00:18.560
Virtue is all but gone. When it disappears, what will restrain man?
00:00:30.000
Today we have a unique problem in the church, and that is we're getting direction, even from Rome, that seems very confusing.
00:00:36.060
People don't know what to do. Priests don't even know what to do.
00:00:39.280
Recently they were told that they should be blessing homosexual couples.
00:00:43.840
There's some regulations about what kind of blessing and so on, but yet they should be doing them.
00:00:48.560
And then this becomes very confusing. You had most of the bishops in Africa reject it outright.
00:00:54.000
You had famous cardinals. The cardinal who was in charge of liturgy and worship right before Francis came in,
00:01:01.920
and still sometime during his tenure, cardinals sought Robert Sarra saying, absolutely reject it.
00:01:09.080
Going to Africa and thanking his brother bishops in Africa for having rejected it in totality.
00:01:14.760
And yet, coming from Rome, it was not to be rejected in totality.
00:01:17.940
How are the faithful to know what's up and what's down anymore?
00:01:22.280
Well, God actually still has a voice, and he actually voices his take on things also through the medium of exorcism,
00:01:33.400
where the priests who are given to that have direct contact with the evil one in working out and in casting out demons,
00:01:42.500
which still exists, by the way, if you didn't know that.
00:01:44.240
But also, it gives you an insight into the spiritual realities to help us suss out what's true and what's not anymore,
00:01:53.300
because the massive confusion here in the church.
00:01:55.860
So we've got someone very special on the program today.
00:01:59.020
Kyle Clements is an assistant to Father Chad Ripperger, probably one of the best-known exorcists in the world today.
00:02:04.420
And he's going to speak to us about something that he had an interview on Life State News,
00:02:10.540
a written interview with our own Louis Kanufki.
00:02:14.620
But there's some very stunning things, which we're going to get to on this episode of The John Hedden Weston Show.
00:02:28.160
Let's begin, as we always do, with the sign of the cross.
00:02:30.040
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
00:02:35.400
So, Kyle, we're just going to dive right in, because I think a lot of people want to hear
00:02:38.520
this thing you mentioned about fiducius supplicants, this blessing for homosexual couples
00:02:44.720
that's given by Rome as a thing to do, and yes, there's a debate.
00:02:51.240
You said that this kind of blessing opens the door to the demonic.
00:02:58.800
And so I think that if you take the broader view of what's actually happening above in
00:03:04.380
the spiritual realm, the priest, the priest of the Most High God in an official capacity
00:03:10.060
is affirming these individuals in habitual moral sin, in a deviance, in a transgression
00:03:21.400
And though the demon doesn't have a Thomistic sense of right, he will argue that based on
00:03:28.180
habitual mortal sin, he has a right to be present to these individuals.
00:03:33.720
The blessing actually will take on the form of a Malifus in this sense.
00:03:42.760
So though it's said in the term of a blessing, it's actually a right, a ritual, an incantation,
00:03:50.340
a thing done, which allows the demon to be there in a formal way.
00:03:55.620
And so I think that's a very important thing that we deal with, especially in investigative
00:04:07.140
Is there an affirmation of that habitual mortal sin by someone in a position of authority?
00:04:18.460
We see the same thing happening in our country when we, people in positions of authority are
00:04:24.480
affirming relationships with the diabolical through habitual mortal sin, even being legislated
00:04:31.020
This is one of the reasons that society is in the shape it's in.
00:04:35.060
This relates then, because we're talking about a lot of formalities and what difference does
00:04:39.960
Why would, you know, the devil care if there's a formality or not?
00:04:43.720
When you just possess someone and take them over and it doesn't really matter what the
00:04:47.420
priest says, why does it make it worse when the priest sort of gives it a blessing or gives
00:04:53.000
So when the priest affirms it, then essentially what's happening is the church is affirming
00:05:01.180
No longer is the deposit of faith or even the words of our Lord.
00:05:08.200
No longer are these doctrines, these morals, these norms, no longer are they operative.
00:05:16.680
And these are the indicators that we're in, where we've moved over into a howling wasteland,
00:05:22.840
essentially that's devoid of the landmarks of right, reason and doctrine and virtue.
00:05:27.720
And we're now in this modernist, relativist, howling wasteland.
00:05:33.500
It's pretty difficult to navigate unless the Catholic calls upon what he knows deep within
00:05:40.660
We as men know, it's not unique to men, but we as men know inherently what is right,
00:05:50.280
And nothing about this follows the natural law, nor does it follow tradition.
00:05:54.460
One of the things that my understanding is, and please correct me if I'm wrong, that the
00:05:59.020
demons somehow have to respect the hierarchy that God set up.
00:06:03.360
And so with the priest giving this blessing, so-called, the demons are given some extra allowance
00:06:17.420
So there's rules of engagement, very formalized rules of engagement.
00:06:21.380
And the demon is one of the, if not the most closely controlled, tightly controlled creature
00:06:31.220
He can act contrary now to his fallen nature, which is set for the rest of time based upon
00:06:37.100
his apostasy, his turning away from God, rejection of mission, et cetera.
00:06:42.440
The other thing that restricts him is God himself.
00:06:47.280
And so we see some of this in Job, the book of Tobit, various other scriptural writings
00:06:52.540
and traditions that give us rules of engagement.
00:06:55.880
And what we find in exorcism and solemn session, the demon acknowledges, yes, these are rules
00:07:02.320
He cannot do anything that the human is not either psychologically compatible with or in
00:07:09.560
But once he gets the agreement, then he has quite a bit of latitude based upon the human's
00:07:19.260
With this blessing, I mean, the men, the women coming forward for these blessings, they are
00:07:26.980
They're committing habitual mortal sin in engaging in sodomy of whatever type.
00:07:31.600
They're having, even if people had issues with calling it or whatever, they're engaging in
00:07:44.100
So their inhabitual mortal sin, for the most part, they have no intention of turning around
00:07:49.020
because as they've come, as we've seen them come, Father James Martin, you know, famously
00:07:53.020
blessing them and they're holding hands and so on and so forth.
00:07:56.360
Then they're married and yet he's giving them a blessing with seemingly the church's permission.
00:08:05.740
There's also this idea of, you know, once they get their blessing, I mean, they can, according
00:08:10.220
to the church's now rules from Pope Francis, they can have a baptism for the child that they
00:08:17.820
In fact, they can have a trans guy in there for the godfather role or godmother, whichever
00:08:22.120
All of this is going on with the permission now, right from Rome.
00:08:29.320
And yet, what is that doing on the demonic level?
00:08:35.520
And what's the result of going through such processes?
00:08:38.060
So we're talking about a homosexual blessing, couple blessing.
00:08:40.400
Then we're talking about a baptism of a baby adopted by them.
00:08:45.260
And then we're talking about the godparent, one of the godparents being a trans man or woman
00:08:50.560
You stand on the edge of a very, very deep subject, though, that we really should broach
00:08:55.920
because our sensibilities lead us to this point.
00:09:00.340
The demon is aping our mocking the very sacraments.
00:09:08.980
And so if we're mocking the nuptial mass, if we're mocking the baptism, if we're mocking
00:09:15.900
holy orders, ultimately there's a progression down each of the sacraments to mock and to
00:09:33.460
The good news is that it's becoming very apparent.
00:09:42.560
Even the most ardent fit sitter now finds himself with no fence upon which to sit.
00:09:50.900
And so, thanks be to God, the prayers for purification of the church are being answered in this way,
00:09:57.020
is that the total depravity and total deviancy has to be exposed.
00:10:04.280
But that is ultimately the diabolical progression, is they will go and push until they're resisted.
00:10:12.040
Now, this is very interesting, because what you say about the aping of the church and her sacraments,
00:10:22.040
Rumors that with this next synod, even, we will already see a diaconate for women.
00:10:28.000
That is not really a diaconate, but basically, for all intents and purposes, looks like it.
00:10:31.960
It will be a building upon what was already allowed in the church under John Paul II.
00:10:38.380
Under exceptions, of course, not to be the norm, not to be the rule,
00:10:41.180
but that women could be lecters, that women could, or girls could, serve at the altar, altar servers.
00:10:46.620
And those were things that were sort of there as an allowance, not to be the norm, but allowed for.
00:10:53.540
A lot of people say that John Paul II, when he signed that allowance, was very ill,
00:10:57.740
and, you know, in a way that was done, you know, so that he couldn't,
00:11:01.740
but he never turned it around, nor did Benedict thereafter.
00:11:04.540
But it was never formalized, until Pope Francis.
00:11:07.080
Pope Francis formalized this role for women, servers, and also for lecters, as acolytes.
00:11:15.640
And then he went so far as to install them in St. Peter's at an official installation ceremony
00:11:22.960
The buildup to that is because the diaconate for women,
00:11:27.140
which probably won't be an ordained diaconate or something,
00:11:32.200
The role of the deacon today, anyway, is something of a glorified altar boy,
00:11:37.280
but they're able to proclaim the gospel as well.
00:11:39.700
That is very likely to be a road that's gone down.
00:11:45.120
How is that seen in terms of, as you were saying, the aping of the church,
00:11:50.600
And why would the devil be concerned about, you know, female diaconate?
00:12:00.820
the first obligation is to discern clean from unclean.
00:12:09.120
It either is good for us, meaning it'll lead us to a greater sanctity,
00:12:13.560
or it's bad for us, meaning it will diminish those efforts.
00:12:22.220
which is go back in the history of the church and look when the indult became the norm,
00:12:27.980
it has never aided the sanctity and holiness of the church.
00:12:35.360
there is a systematic degradation of the integrity of the sanctity of the church.
00:12:44.460
Communion in the hand is the result of an indult, which became the norm.
00:12:48.600
Women altar servers are an indult, which became a norm.
00:12:54.260
All of these things, if you look back, and when the indult becomes the norm,
00:13:01.900
The indult was there to provide for correction, but it becomes misused.
00:13:06.540
If we look at systematically the fruits of these indults becoming norms,
00:13:13.760
what you find is there's a direct correlation between females on the altar
00:13:22.240
There's only two dots here, and if you can't connect them, you're not trying.
00:13:25.960
And so that's just a, you know, this is a cowboy observation.
00:13:29.480
If you do that, you get this, and it happens over and over and over again.
00:13:32.920
So at some point, the laymen of the church have to stand up and say,
00:13:37.280
Basta, enough, you know, we can't keep interpreting the words of the hierarchy
00:13:44.520
in the best possible light, because ultimately it becomes clear that there is malibus,
00:13:53.320
One of the rumors that was already going on back, first time I heard it was,
00:13:57.880
even around the time of Pachamama, that they were developing a mass with different words
00:14:09.080
If Satan wants to ape the church, inner sacraments, and the prime sacrament,
00:14:14.780
the summit of our faith is the Holy Eucharist, that's going to be target number one.
00:14:20.360
The idea that we heard way back then already was that they were going to develop a mass
00:14:26.140
that doesn't use the words of consecration, but seems to have a lot of the same elements.
00:14:35.760
What would that be in terms of what you'd expect to see from exorcisms,
00:14:41.060
and what you'd expect to hear from the demons with regard to that?
00:14:47.120
One is, from a Thomistic standpoint, the oncology of the human person with regard to Thomas,
00:14:51.720
the lower faculties are the flesh-based faculties or where the demon traffics,
00:14:56.700
these being emotion, appetites, desires, memory.
00:15:01.000
The faculties reserved to the human soul, above the line, if you will,
00:15:06.120
transcendent of flesh, above the flesh, and reserved to the soul are the intellect and the will.
00:15:11.560
The intellect and the will are those faculties where we meet and know God in a true sense,
00:15:19.000
because that's where the soul is in communion with God.
00:15:21.860
If you look at the mass as being above the line, the holy sacrifice of the mass,
00:15:27.700
above the line, that which is concerned directly with God,
00:15:31.180
the only way the demon can get access to it is through the lower faculties.
00:15:35.480
The first thing to do is turn it from ad orientum to ad halloween.
00:15:39.100
The central focus is no longer creature on creator, rather creature upon creature.
00:15:44.860
Now, if we can draw the mass, if he can draw the mass down into the lower faculties,
00:15:50.060
the flesh, and make it appeal to the human, so that human is worshiping human,
00:15:55.780
allowing creator to observe is essentially what's happening.
00:16:00.380
And so, at this point, God is removed from the mass.
00:16:05.940
There's always been a concerted attack on the real presence.
00:16:10.060
So, with no words of consecration, we're in a parody of the mass.
00:16:22.560
The first time that the holy sacrifice of the mass is offered in parody without the real presence
00:16:27.260
is right after the reformation, and then it spreads and becomes all kinds of different worship services.
00:16:33.500
So, make no mistake, the demons, his whole focus has been on the holy sacrifice and the mass,
00:16:43.380
Anything having to do with the governance of our Lord Jesus Christ in the mass,
00:16:50.340
in the liturgy, in municipality, in secular world,
00:16:54.220
that is what his goal is, is to erase, if you will, or replace the role of Jesus in the governance of men,
00:17:03.960
whether that is liturgy and or government, legislative government.
00:17:12.820
This is the replacement of Christ as the sovereign.
00:17:17.120
So, one of the things that I've always wanted to ask an exorcist or someone who assists an exorcist is
00:17:34.560
Anything that I say is coming, I watch in sessions with Father, and over the years,
00:17:45.420
I've just spent 25 years of observational watching and saying this is what is a constant.
00:17:51.600
But there's a constant yielding our sensitivity to Latin on the part of the demon for three reasons.
00:17:58.380
And to follow St. Thomas with regard to ranking or primacy,
00:18:02.380
the primary reason is it's the last of the sacred languages, which is in usage.
00:18:08.480
What makes it sacred is that it was written on the placard of our Lord at Calvary.
00:18:13.460
And so, and there's no such thing as slang Latin.
00:18:22.540
There's no way to Jesuitically massage Latin as to it, meaning something different.
00:18:32.260
The secondary reason is that it is a formality.
00:18:37.740
For centuries, it was the official language of the church.
00:18:41.680
When a priest uses that, he's speaking with a formality to which the demon must now,
00:18:56.660
They're always wanting to argue procedure, et cetera.
00:18:59.840
But when a priest begins to speak Latin, it is the language of the court.
00:19:03.400
And immediately, the demon is called before the judge just with that understanding that,
00:19:11.380
The third is that St. Charles Borromeo, when he wrote the 1614 Rite in Latin,
00:19:22.920
And you're talking about the rite of exorcism, is that right?
00:19:25.280
Yes, the solemn rite of exorcism, as St. Charles Borromeo wrote it, especially the second chapter.
00:19:31.380
It's unique language where a priest, a human, adjures an incoepal creature, a fallen angel.
00:19:47.960
And the demons have had 400 years to get used to this type of adjuration, if you will.
00:19:53.100
And so many of them know the solemn rite by rote, by heart.
00:19:59.540
They know the prefaces, the responses, the colics.
00:20:06.680
Oftentimes, various exorcists will command the demon to recite the colic of the day or the preface of the day.
00:20:14.100
Now, the demon will be possessing often an illiterate person, a person with no knowledge of Latin, certainly no liturgical knowledge.
00:20:23.100
And then you will hear a voice in Latin, give perfectly the colic for the day out of the old rite additional mass.
00:20:34.220
And it's one of the ways that the priest compels the demon to acknowledge the veracity of the mass.
00:20:40.560
The move then to stomp out the traditional mass, which is going on in spades right now, and we're seeing it in every sphere, in almost every diocese on earth.
00:20:55.220
But have you had any indication at exorcisms or heard from exorcisms where this is a matter of rejoicing or a victory for demons?
00:21:12.700
I think anyone, even the most ardent sinner, sees that this is an attack on the Latin mass, on tradition.
00:21:21.000
And the Latin mass is simply the effigy of what's being attacked.
00:21:28.120
All things tradition, the deposit of faith, the integrity of doctrine and dogma, all of these things are being attacked.
00:21:35.740
It is just that the Latin mass becomes the effigy, if you will, or the symbol of all things traditional.
00:21:47.460
This is a good example that it's diabolically fueled.
00:21:52.620
You'll notice that people can civilly discuss many things, but certain issues bring a visceral response.
00:22:00.300
And so these are those issues that are usually under diabolical inspiration.
00:22:08.020
And I think that's one of the reasons that your outlet is so very, very valuable, is you all are Captain Obvious.
00:22:24.200
When a man dresses as a woman, that's not right.
00:22:26.800
When a priest blesses that appearance, that's not right.
00:22:31.880
When a priest is clearly homosexual or has homosexual tendencies, that's not right.
00:22:39.620
When they're not acting like fathers, that's not right.
00:22:43.380
But when you're not acting as a husband, that's not right.
00:22:46.500
And so the reason I'm saying that is in that moment of being not right, that's disordered.
00:22:53.800
Then there's a psychological compatibility with the demon.
00:22:57.140
Then the person is open to the diabolical influence.
00:22:59.940
So to keep yourself clean, to keep yourself out of the realm of the diabolical influence, just keep your Catholic conscience calibrated.
00:23:14.980
One of the fascinating aspects of what you told Lewis in the interview and what we haven't discussed yet is the, yes, we talked about the opening of the demonic to the cabal.
00:23:28.380
How does a priest who intends to do just what the church is telling him to do, he doesn't want to be disobedient to his bishop who got from the pope that we're supposed to do these homosexual blessings.
00:23:41.620
But he doesn't know what to do because he's now asked by the couple, if he lives in Canada and doesn't do it now, he might get charged under hate crime legislation because, you know, he will go and say, I can't, I'm a Catholic.
00:23:53.300
And the court that we have here, the type of arbitration, will say, yes, your pope told you to do it.
00:24:00.160
So, you know, a priest trying to be obedient, but yet being told to do something he knows internally is wrong, goes to do it.
00:24:08.860
Does that, does he get a pass from the demon because he's just trying to be obedient or what do you do with that?
00:24:29.460
And I think that is a very important understanding is essentially we got to go to the Athanasian Creed.
00:24:38.420
Let's go back to the very foundations of our faith.
00:24:41.540
At the end of his life, each man will stand before the sacred heart and give account of himself.
00:24:45.720
You don't have power of subpoena at particular judgment.
00:24:51.060
You will look into the eyes of the sacred heart and you will defend what you have done and what you have failed to do.
00:24:57.580
If we look at what our Lord himself said, better than a millstone be strung around their neck and then thrown it to the sea than to lead one of these little ones astray.
00:25:07.840
This is where the priest must stand to his full height and understand that he is ontologically configured to God as a sacrifice, as a sacrifice.
00:25:22.440
It is the giving of his life and all that there is about him for the purpose of the kingdom of God.
00:25:29.380
And he can't act contrary to that without there having, without there being a significant, if not eternal penalty.
00:25:40.200
He has an obligation, not only to those below him, to be truthful and to do what Christ would do and to follow morals and doctrine, but he has an obligation to those above him to say, I cannot do what you're asking me to do.
00:26:02.680
We all know more about this than we think we do.
00:26:05.240
We want to struggle with the idea of obedience.
00:26:10.960
Obedience, St. Thomas's obedience, is the prompt conformity of your will to the right command of a superior.
00:26:23.300
It's that conformity of will therein lies the merit or the defect, if you will.
00:26:29.240
If the scene is Christ in front of Pilate and he says to him, the authority you have over me comes from above and Christ himself submits himself to that authority, even unto death.
00:26:42.340
Then we see the power of providential authority enacted through an individual of less merit.
00:26:49.800
So authority and merit do not have anything to do with each other.
00:26:56.340
Christ obviously is a more meritorious individual, but he acquiesces.
00:27:03.220
And so the hypothetical is, and I'll ask you, what if Pilate had said to Christ, sacrifice to the Caesar, would Christ have done it?
00:27:17.340
Because it was against morals and against doctrine.
00:27:26.140
And one of the hardest things is for a man to look at his superior and say, I cannot do what you ask.
00:27:37.600
Ordering men into battle is, is a very, very significant responsibility.
00:27:47.000
And the bishops do not see that when they ordain priests, they are ordering men into the spiritual battle.
00:27:54.320
That is life, that is preservation of the faith.
00:27:59.240
The only thing that binds them to that is arrogance.
00:28:03.820
If they're about preservation, if they're about fighting for what is right, then they do that with a very sober look.
00:28:12.200
But the confusion that's being, you know, scattered through the world today is, as you said, it's actually not that much, but it's difficult to remember.
00:28:26.760
I don't need to be a theologian to understand that and see that.
00:28:31.480
It was beautiful that the African bishops and the whole, almost the whole of the African peoples rejected this outright, this fiducius supplicant, this homosexual couple blessings, because it was just so plain.
00:28:42.660
No amount of obfuscation or mental gymnastics was able to overcome that just simple recognition of, whoa, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:28:57.220
I mean, the voice of the church from Africa spoke loud and clear.
00:29:01.140
For the rest of the church, it's just so, so, so confused.
00:29:04.340
But in a way, we have from the witness of the demonic, of exorcists, of your role, an important confirmation as well.
00:29:13.920
Because to provide a clarity that enables people to see once again in the midst of such confusion,
00:29:21.240
even though it comes from the very source of that confusion, that is controlled and defeated in exorcism, is truly amazing.
00:29:32.780
Thanks be to God that we are deigned to live in these times.
00:29:37.300
We must give thanks to God always, because he chose the specifics of our existence here.
00:29:43.700
You and I, he chose our gender, our ethnicity, time and place.
00:29:49.020
So this is the arena of his choosing, and he will provide the grace that is necessary for us to do well,
00:29:55.260
for us to buy well against whatever the forces are that come against us.
00:29:59.880
But at the end of the day, we must realize that it is his realm.
00:30:06.140
And when we pray for the preservation of the church, things will get worse before they get better.
00:30:13.320
And typically, this is not going, this cup will not pass from us.
00:30:17.780
We will watch the church go through this horrific cleansing.
00:30:24.340
And so I think to be thankful in all things, to give God thanks and to ask for the grace,
00:30:28.940
to carry the standard that he has given us as men and as Catholics.
00:30:34.020
Kyle, I've got a follow-up for you, because what you just said is so stunning.
00:30:43.000
But what you just said indicates that you think it will indeed get worse.
00:30:48.440
So if you look at the progression and realize that when we go down this road,
00:30:55.260
satanic ritualistic abuse, satanic practice by prelates, these things are becoming apparent.
00:31:01.800
It's becoming clear that they're engaged in ongoing malapus in the destruction of various aspects of the church.
00:31:13.040
Christ picked, handpicked 12, one of whom was working for the other side.
00:31:18.880
He can't expect the odds to be any different, if not possibly worse, because he didn't handpick these.
00:31:28.860
So we've got the battle both within and without.
00:31:34.900
You don't know how the Lord's going to do it, but he's going to do it.
00:31:42.360
What we were seeing in exorcisms that we did not speak about in public 20 years ago,
00:31:49.660
the Bernadine victims and various other victims of satanic ritualistic abuse at the hands of clergy,
00:31:55.380
and we're beginning to realize, the society is at large, beginning to realize what we knew,
00:32:01.140
that this was not pedophilia, this was satanic, this was desecration of children,
00:32:13.520
We're also seeing deviant practices work their way into society.
00:32:22.160
We're not quite prepared to hear about the open selling of body parts,
00:32:29.000
what happens to the corpus of a trafficked child once it's no longer economically viable,
00:32:34.460
what happens to the flesh of a ritualistically sacrificed victim.
00:32:41.580
And these things are happening in a larger scale than people think they are.
00:32:46.620
And that's not to frighten or to be an alarmist,
00:32:49.820
but the things that we thought would never be in the open 20 years ago,
00:32:59.820
Be prepared for open sexual activity in the streets.
00:33:19.540
Kyle Clements, thank you so much for being with us,
00:33:23.000
It's a great work for the church and for the salvation of many souls.
