The Hand of Rome – Part 2
TimeWatch Editorial
October 11, 2016
We ended our last Editorial with a quotation from Charles Chiniquy’s book “Fifty Years in the Church of Rome.” That quote described the long term plan described at a meeting in Buffalo New York in 1852, of Rome to silently and patiently, mass Roman Catholics in the great cities of the United States and to call poor but faithful Irish Catholics from every corner of the world, and gather them into the very hearts of those proud citadels which the Yankees are so rapidly building under the names of Washington, New York, Boston, Chicago, Buffalo, Albany, Troy, Cincinnati, etc. The description of the plan continues to reveal the goal that those Protestant Yankees will be shocked when Catholics will not only elect the President, but fill and command the armies, man the navies and hold the keys of the public treasury. When this has been accomplished, Charles Chiniquy says on page 670 that the intended goal would have been reached and then,
"Then, yes! then, we will rule the United States, and lay them at the feet of the Vicar of Jesus Christ, that he may put an end to their godless system of education, and sweep away those impious laws of liberty of conscience, which are an insult to God and man!” Charles Chiniquy, Fifty Years in the Church of Rome” Page 670
Notice the objective mentioned in that first paragraph. The plan is to “sweep away those impious laws of liberty of conscience, which are an insult to God and man!” clearly therefore, the idea of Liberty of Conscience is abhorrent to the Church of Rome, because they seek to reestablish control over the thoughts and actions of the people of the United States first and then by extension, the entire world. As we have mentioned in part 1 of this Editorial, the pan has not changed. 164 years later, in the year 2016 their plan is still being pursued. Leo Hohmann, in his article entitled “Religious 'charities' profit from open borders”; published on the World Net Daily WND website on July 16, 2014 identifies the largest settler of immigrants in the United States.
“But one of the largest recipients of government funds to resettle immigrant children is the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. The USCCB helps resettle not only unaccompanied alien children, or UACs, who enter the country illegally but also refugees fleeing persecution overseas who enter through legal channels.” Leo Hohmann , Religious 'charities' profit from open borders, World Net Daily WND website July 16, 2014
The article continues to describe the amount of Federal Tax money doled out to Catholic Charities which is ultimately used to sponsor immigrants both legal and illegal. It is also clear that the vast majority of those who cross the southern border are of catholic origin, since the dominant religion in South America is Catholicism. Listen to continued description found in the article:
“The USCCB is one of nine agencies that receive hundreds of millions in tax dollars to resettle refugees and asylum seekers in the U.S. under contract with the federal government. Six of the nine contractors are religious groups, WND has learned, including the Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Service, Episcopal Migration Ministries, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, the Church World Service and World Relief Corp., which includes a plethora of evangelical groups. The Catholic Bishops alone received $65.9 million in federal grants to care for unaccompanied alien children and refugees, according to its 2012 annual report. By contrast, the group raised $1.4 million from its own church members while federal loans and private-sector grants made up the remainder of the $71 million spent on the resettlements that year. That means 93 percent of the USCCB’s spending on charity work with UACs and refugees was covered by the American taxpayer.

“So the plan to rule the United States, and lay them at the feet of the Vicar of Jesus Christ, that he may put an end to their godless system of education, and sweep away those impious laws of liberty of conscience, which are an insult to God and man!” is alive and well. The recent promise made by one of the candidates running in the 2016 Presidential Election to “remove the wall that separates Church and State” fits the plan of the Papacy perfectly.
“The money for refugees and asylum seekers may not even include the federal money funneled to Catholic Charities USA and other religious groups to resettle illegal border crossers coming into Texas, Arizona or New Mexico who arrive by themselves. The charities often subcontract with other charities, making it difficult to track the money. The numbers of immigrants coming through the Southern border have increased dramatically since 2009, and so have the costs, according to the Office of Refugee Resettlement, which operates within the Department of Health and Human Services.” Leo Hohmann , Religious 'charities' profit from open borders, World Net Daily WND website July 16, 2014
Some may think that becoming a citizen automatically changes the thinking of those who are chosen to be a part of the United States. Many tend to mistrust the illegal status of those who are here, thinking that their allegiance is questionable. But the truth of the matter is revealed in the pages of the book The Great Controversy on page 580.
“The Roman Catholic Church, with all its ramifications throughout the world, forms one vast organization under the control, and designed to serve the interests, of the papal see. Its millions of communicants, in every country on the globe, are instructed to hold themselves as bound in allegiance to the pope. Whatever their nationality or their government, they are to regard the authority of the church as above all other. Though they may take the oath pledging their loyalty to the state, yet back of this lies the vow of obedience to Rome, absolving them from every pledge inimical to her interests. History testifies of her artful and persistent efforts to insinuate herself into the affairs of nations; and having gained a foothold, to further her own aims, even at the ruin of princes and people.” {The Great Controversy. page 580}
The plan is clear, the warning is even clearer.
