In two letters to the clergy of Cologne and Trier she rates the carelessness and avarice of so many priests, and foretells, in what are for her unusually clear terms, the scourges that will follow
I love reading this. One of the great saints. There is a good English translation of Scivias, and it is very good spiritual reading. Also, her music is some of the most beautiful of all time. Just to update Butler’s excellent account here, Benedict XVII declared her a doctor of the Church!
I really need to study these books. Thank you for this. It is stuff like this which pulls me closer to this Church I’d imagine, its sense of the supernatural. However, it has to be said, that the modernists including the current occupant of the seat of St Peter want to snuff this out. If an assassin comes to you with a smile on his face then that makes their concealed dagger more deadly, not less so.
This Saint would have received no recognition from the Vatican as it is. This is why they wage ceaseless war on Tradition, if they are allowed they will gut the Church like a fish of all its supernatural lineage. She would have been dismissed and probably institutionalised by her own peers - the modernists, the Church of Human Fraternity, are attempting to decouple the Church entirely from the supernatural and they can’t be trusted and must be purged entirely and they are the clear majority of the Clergy. The Clergy cannot be trusted as sole stewards of the House of the Lord anymore; they have failed and God Himself will sweep them aside, once the Holy Spirit is loosed watch it burn through this Church and humble the proud by bringing them crashing down.
