4-1. Cdl. Pell Called Synod on Synodality A ‘Toxic Nightmare’ Just Before He Died...
Vatican III
"Watch, My child, what is to be. They will call another Council. Oh, but satan now has his plans. O woe, woe to evil man-what is to come upon them!"
- The Bayside Prophecies
Our Lady of the Roses, February 1, 1974
Worse to Come
"And if you think you have seen carnage now already in the Church, the worst is yet to come, unless you follow the rules given by My Mother many years ago, of prayer, atonement, and sacrifice. By your example you may be able to save others. For soon there will come upon you the great Chastisement. It comes in two parts, My child and My children: the Third World War, and also the Ball of Redemption. These can no longer be delayed. For the good seem to go about their way, perhaps pridefully. We do not seek to accuse or place a stigma on any, but some may pridefully sit back and let others go forth and make these sacrifices and prayers and penance. Because they have become smug, or because they have not the grace to understand that once you receive this grace much is expected of you. You must even work harder to save your brothers and sisters."
- The Bayside Prophecies
Jesus, June 18, 1986
ONLY SATAN SEEKS CHANGE
"We ask--the Eternal Father speaks, and demands that all bishops in the houses of God throughout your world must turn back to prayer. They must turn back from the road they have chosen, a road filled with error, corruption, and sin. Man will not make changes in the House of God to please the basic carnal nature of mankind! But man in the House of God--the leaders, the clergy chosen by the Eternal Father, shall turn man from his path of destruction and bring him into the House of God. This he will not accomplish by lowering the rule or standards. Man must change his ways and follow the ways of God.”

Shortly before his unexpected death on January 10, Cardinal George Pell criticized Pope Francis’ Synod on Synodality in print, calling it a “toxic nightmare.’’
Pell expressed his criticism of the Synod in an article that was published on January 11 in the British The Spectator magazine.
“The Catholic Synod of Bishops is now busy constructing what they think of as ‘God’s dream’ of synodality,” Pell wrote. “Unfortunately, this divine dream has developed into a toxic nightmare despite the bishops’ professed good intentions.”
The Australian prelate had similarly strong words for the highly controversial Synod document calling for “inclusion” of LGBT groups and proposing a female diaconate; he declared it “the most incoherent document ever sent out from Rome.”
Pell noted that “[t]he document does not urge even the Catholic participants to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:16-20), much less to preach the Saviour in season and out of season (2 Timothy 4:2).”
“What is one to make of this potpourri, this outpouring of New Age good will?” Pell asked. “It is not a summary of Catholic faith or New Testament teaching. It is incomplete, hostile in significant ways to the apostolic tradition, and nowhere acknowledges the New Testament as the Word of God, normative for all teaching on faith and morals. The Old Testament is ignored, patriarchy rejected, and the Mosaic Law, including the Ten Commandments, is not acknowledged.”
Pell also critiqued the language used in the Synod document, saying it is “neo-Marxist jargon about exclusion, alienation, identity, marginalization, the voiceless, LGBTQ, […]” and observed also “the displacement of Christian notions of forgiveness, sin, sacrifice, healing, [and] redemption” in the document.
In a sadly prophetic manner, Pell reminded his readers – and the authors of the synod document – of the inevitable finitude of life. “Why the silence on the afterlife, of reward or punishment, on the four last things; death and judgement, heaven and hell?” he asked shortly before his own earthly life drew suddenly to a close.
“So far the synodal way has neglected, indeed downgraded the Transcendent, covered up the centrality of Christ with appeals to the Holy Spirit and encouraged resentment, especially among participants,” the late prelate lamented.
Cardinal Pell also accused an Luxembourger prelate of open heterodoxy, saying that “as the Relator (chief writer and manager) [of the Synod document] Cardinal Jean-Claude Hollerich has publicly rejected the basic teachings of the Church on sexuality, on the grounds that they contradict modern science.”
Because of Hollerich’s heterodoxy, Pell believed the “two final synods in Rome in 2023 and ’24 will need to clarify their teaching on moral matters.”
Pell also criticized the organizational structure of the Synod on Synodality, pointing out that “[t]he main actors in all Catholic synods (and councils) and in all Orthodox synods have been the bishops.” In this Synod, however, “only the organizing committee’s views” would be passed on “to the Holy Father for him to do as he decides,” which “is an abuse of synodality, a sidelining of the bishops, which is unjustified by scripture or tradition.”
“It is not due process and is liable to manipulation,” he stated.
Pell stressed that “[w]orking documents are not part of the magisterium” but only a “basis for discussion; to be judged by the whole people of God and especially by the bishops with and under the Pope.”
“This working document needs radical changes,“ Pell declared.
Cardinal Pell became world-famous after he was unjustly convicted of child sexual abuse and imprisoned in 2019. After over 400 days behind prison bars, he was unanimously acquitted by the Australian High Court in 2020.
Pell courageously defended the Catholic faith and was an important voice of orthodoxy, especially in the doctrinally confusing times of the Francis pontificate. He publicly criticized the Synod on Synodality, the German Synodal Way, and even warned against the documents of the Amazon Synod while he was still imprisoned.
News of Pell’s unexpected death has swept through the online Catholic world, with many Catholics quick to respond. Particularly notable was the number of priests and bishops who spoke of their appreciation and affection for the cardinal.
LifeSiteNews invites its readers to pray for the repose of Cardinal Pell’s soul.
JESUS NEVER CHANGES
"Come out of the darkness, my sisters. You have been misled. Do not follow the fashions of your world. There is no fashion in Heaven. Jesus never changes. There is great punishment ahead for those who follow the world. Do not leave when you are discouraged by those who satan has sent into your convents. Stand forth as an example of purity and godliness. You will not be cast aside by your God, as you will by man, as you stand to defend your God. Pick up your cross and carry it. You will return the habit to the floor."
– The Bayside Prophecies
St. Theresa, November 20, 1972
“WE DO NOT CONDONE VARIATIONS AND CHANGES"
"It has grieved Me much in the past, as it grieves Me now, that mankind is making changes to My words. I assure you, My children and pastors within My houses, My Church upon earth, there is no necessity to change My words. Heaven, hell, purgatory, and especially, My children, the word 'hell' must be retained in your prayers.
"Repeat, My child, the confessional prayer.
O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I confess to all my sins, because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of hell, but most of all because I love Thee, my God, Who are all-good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.
"Yes, My child, We do not condone variations and changes. It is the enemies of your God that have set themselves to promote change upon My words. The word of your God is eternal and must not be changed.”
