Consecrated to the BVM. Padre Pio fought evil with his Rosary. We too must armor-up for Christ. Sedevacantists follow Tradition-Logic-Truth!

The year 1572, Luther and Calvin had already wrested from the Church a great part of Europe. The iconoclastic storm had swept through the Netherlands and was followed by a struggle between Lutheranism and Calvinism in which the latter was victorious.
In 1571 the Calvinists held their first synod, at Embden. On 1 April of the next year, the Dutch Watergeuzen (Sea-beggars, a Calvinist organisation) conquered Briel and later Vlissingen and other Cities and regions. In June, Dortrecht and Gorkum fell into their hands and at Gorkum they captured nine Franciscans. These were: Nicholas Pieck, Guardian of Gorkum, Hieronymns of Weert, Vicar, Theodorus van der Eem, of Amersfoort, Nicasius Janssen, of Heeze, Willehad of Denmark, Godefried of Mervel, Antonius of Weert, Antonius of Hoornaer, and Franciseus de Roye, of Brussels. To these were added two Lay Brothers from the same Monastery, Petrus of Assche and Cornelius of Wyk near Duurstede.
.
Almost at the same time, the Calvinists laid their hands on the learned Parish Priest of Gorkum, Leonardus Vechel of Bois-le-Duc, who had made distinguished studies in Louvain and also his assistant. Nicolaas Janssen, surnamed Poppel, of Welde in Belgium. With the above, were also imprisoned Godefried van Duynsen, of Gorkum who was active as a Priest in his native City and Joannes Lenartz of Oisterwljk, an Augustinian and director of the Convent of Augustinian Nuns in Gorkum.
.
To these fifteen, who from the very first underwent all the sufferings and torments of the persecution, were later added four more companions – Joannes van Hoornaer, (known as St John of Cologne) a Dominican of the Cologne province and Parish Priest not far from Gorkum, who, when apprised of the incarceration of the clergy of Gorkum, hastened to the City in order to administer the Sacraments to them and was seized and imprisoned with the rest. Also Jacobus Lacops of Oudenaar, a Norbertine, who after leading a frivolous life, being disobedient to his Order and neglectful of his religious duties, reformed, became a curate in Monster, Holland and was imprisoned in 1572. Adrianus Janssen of Hilvarenbeek, at one time a Premonstratensian and Parish Priest in Monster, who was sent to Brielle with Jacobus Lacops and lastly, Andreas Wouters of Heynoord, whose conduct was not edifying up to the time of his arrest but,, who made ample amends by his Martyrdom.
.
After enduring much suffering and abuse in the prison at Gorkum (26 June-6 July) the first fifteen Martyrs were transferred to Brielle. On their way to Dortrecht, they were exhibited for money to the curious and arrived at Brielle on July 8. On the following day, Lumey, the Commander of the Watergeuzen, caused the Martyrs to be interrogated and ordered a sort of disputation.
.
In the meantime, the four other Martyrs also arrived. It was exacted of each that he abandon his belief in the Blessed Sacrament and in Papal Supremacy. All remained firm in their faith. Meanwhile, a letter arrived from William of Orange, an important secular leader, which enjoined all those in authority to leave Priests and Religious unmolested. Nevertheless, Lumey caused the Martyrs to be hanged in the night of 9 July, in a turf-shed amid cruel mutilations.
.
Their Beatification took place on November 14, 1675 by Pope Clement X and they were Canonised on June 29, 1867 by Pope Pius IX. Ever since this evil day, the place of their Martyrdom in Brielle has been the scene of numerous pilgrimages and processions.
.
Eternal Father, I wish to honor the 19 Martyrs of Gorkum, and I give Thee thanks for all the graces Thou hast bestowed upon them. I ask Thee to please increase grace in my soul through the merits of these saints, and I commit the end of my life to them by this special prayer, so that by virtue of Thy goodness and promise, the 19 Martyrs of Gorkum might be my advocate and provide whatever is needed at that hour. Amen.

@MLBVault Damn, that had to have broken the sound barrier.

@mewils01 @SadieSherr45406 @BarronTNews_ No, they didn't. They died for America and Americans. Not these America-hating foreigners who think they can just come into this country and take over. We may be looking at the seeds of a 2nd Civil War. There are too many red-blooded Americans to not go down without a fight.

@AthanasiusChr @marymar49743095 Well, she lived long before the Novus Ordo, and she is now a saint in Heaven due to an exhaustive study of her life by the then-valid Vatican.

Decades ago, as a Navy Hospital Corpsman, the Navy was fighting this issue of "pseudofo", as we jokingly named it. Hard to believe 40 years later the battle rages on.

Stop the fence sitting! The answer is, and has been, since the modernist hijacked the infrastructure of the Church, sedevacantism. A Catholic can have NOTHING to do with V II, its doctrines, its invalid Mass and especially its heretical leader. The remnant Church, free of error, is the only answer for true Catholics.

I am a sedevacantist. This article has much to do about the core reason I was lead to become a sede. I am a humble, unconditional lover of truth...absolute truth...God's TRUTH. If you also want the truth, abandon all agendas, all pretenses and then repeatedly pray to God for it.

@ridgede Sorry DeAnn. I am just now seeing this. I will try to find an alternate link to that article.

@nation022002 Sorry. I was not aware the post was dropped.

@marymar49743095 God put us here at this moment, in this place, with this situation, surrounded by these, our people, for a reason. But, I so would have loved to live in the 30s, 40s, 50s when Catholics were Catholics and we all knew it.

[Weaponized+Catholic @JoetheWriter]

@marymar49743095 We live in such a filthy, horrible world. But thankfully we have Jesus and Mary in our hearts to help us rise above the muck and mire that sin brings about across this old, tired globe.
