Benedict’s Death May Clear the Way for Francis to Name Ultra-Liberal German Bishop Head of Vatican Doctrine Office...
FAITH BASED ON TRADITION
"You were given a foundation of Faith based on Tradition and knowledge of the prophets. You cannot start this new religion, for it will lead you to one religion that is not of My Son, that will not have His true foundation, and you will take My Son's Body and defame it, no longer giving the knowledge of His Divinity. What manner of foul escapades are you planning, O you of little faith? Whatever shall become of you? The Red Hats have fallen and the Purple Hats are being misled. Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth!"
- The Bayside Prophecies
Our Lady of the Roses, August 5, 1976
ROTTEN EXAMPLE
"The vocation are nil, and why? Because the example is rotten! Tradition has been cast aside for modernism and humanism."

Jesus, December 31, 1977
CHURCH OF MAN
"There must be change, My children, but a change back to reality and tradition. My Son has given you a true foundation, but many come now with axes and they chop away. They seek to build a church without spirit, a church of man. The walls will crumble, the earth will shake. The Eternal Father will send His wrath upon mankind."

At the end of 2022, an Italian blog revealed that a progressivist German bishop supportive of the German Synodal Path, Heiner Wilmer, might become the new head of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. But then the appointment did not take place.
LifeSite was able to confirm, based on different sources, that Bishop Wilmer was, indeed, considered by Pope Francis as the future head of Doctrine, but that there have been several cardinals who intervened with the Vatican not to do so. Some of the names of these cardinals are known to LifeSite, but due to their wish to remain anonymous will not be disclosed.
LifeSite also learned that the appointment of Wilmer might have been merely delayed, due to Pope Benedict’s then-impending death. “I fear for a good reason,” said one senior Vatican source to LifeSite, “that Wilmer has been stopped merely intermittently, due to the impending death of Benedict, but that one will soon appoint him, after the path is freed.”
The source continued by saying that “one can certainly say publicly, based on the best source, that this takes place against the will of the deceased [Pope Benedict] who was shocked about the heterodoxy of the candidate and who saw such a prefect as a betrayal of his heritage.”
Another high-ranking source in Rome revealed to LifeSite that the cardinals tried to argue with Pope Francis that such an appointment would damage his own reputation.
Our colleague Giuseppe Nardi, of Katholisches.info in Germany, had also reported that among the cardinals who intervened was Cardinal Gerhard Müller, a fact that we can confirm based on our own sources.
In an as yet unreleased interview with LifeSite’s John-Henry Westen and Jim Hale, the former Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith declared Wilmer to hold “heretical ideas.”
Bishop Wilmer, SCJ, of Hildesheim, Germany, is one of the strong supporters of the controversial German Synodal Path. He voted for the Synodal Path’s controversial, even revolutionary, September 2022 document for the reform of the Church’s teaching on sexuality. When it did not receive the necessary two-thirds majority of bishops’ votes, Wilmer regretted that it failed. He stated: “It cannot be that people are hurt or discriminated against by Church teaching. This is not in the spirit of Jesus Christ.” Wilmer, who speaks fluent Italian and is, according to Katholisch.de, the website of the German bishops, well-connected in Rome, is also a supporter of female ordination and the end of celibacy.
In October 2022, the 61-year-old Wilmer had a private audience with Pope Francis, during which he was able to discuss the German Synodal Path with the Pontiff. The German priest had been made a bishop by the Pope in 2018 and is the former Superior General of the Congregation of the Priests of the Sacred Heart.
In that same year, Wilmer caused a stir by claiming in light of the abuse crisis that “abuse of power is in the DNA of the Church,” adding that “we have to say goodbye” to the claim that “the Church in herself is pure and immaculate.” In April 2020, during the COVID-related lockdowns of churches in the world, Wilmer condemned Catholic faithful who are “fixated only on the Eucharist.”
There also exist rumors that Cardinal Reinhard Marx is behind the push to get Bishop Wilmer chosen as new head of Doctrine in Rome. Marx is still sitting on Pope Francis’ Council of Cardinals, counseling him on essential questions of the Church. Unfortunately, it was Pope Benedict himself who made Reinhard Marx the Archbishop of Munich in 2008, and then a cardinal in 2010.
As one source told LifeSite, one never knows what Pope Francis will finally decide now that Pope Benedict has died and been buried. But, the source added, “the danger was real” that Wilmer would be appointed.
As LifeSite stated before, should Pope Francis go through with this appointment, the mask will be removed and the whole world will see that he is, and always has been, a supporter of the heretical German Synodal Path. Even the fact that Wilmer has been seriously considered by the Pope speaks volumes in itself.
"Many now rebel against their leader, their God-given leader, your Vicar. In matters of faith and morals, man must not change the God-given laws, coming from the seat of Peter, and established through tradition upon earth through My Son's Church."

Our Lady of the Roses, October 6, 1979
"Because of the fall in Babylon, many new languages were given because of the sin of Babylon. Therefore, as a member of one country, My children, with a universal language, you carried with you your own country's translation, and were you to visit abroad, you could enter upon any foreign edifice, Church of My Son, and feel comfortable and in one with the man, the priest, the one chosen by My Son to represent Him in His House.
"If you were, My child, to go from your United States to France, could you understand the words in French? But, My child, you would recognize the words in Latin and you would have your book with you to read in your American language, just as those in France could read in their French language, bringing upon the world a beautiful and common bond of language among all who have been given the grace to be called to the Roman Catholic Church of My Son.
"Do not leave My Son's Church though, My children, because they have taken this language from among you. You must wait and persevere and weep with My Son for this defilement by man."
