The Papacy’s War On National Independence

The world is rapidly heading toward a centralized and globalist authoritarian governance model which will strip individual human beings of their civil liberties.


The World Economic Forum, an elitist cabal with aspirations of global control, has been growing in influence for decades. In 2023, it hosted yet another annual forum in Davos, Switzerland which was attended by many of the world’s key government and corporate leaders. The purpose of the ongoing meetings in Davos are to implement global collaboration on a supranational level to combat so-called global threats. The initiated elites are working overtime to bring in what they call a Great Reset, or Fourth Industrial Revolution, but which in reality is government and private industry uniting to control humanity and to eliminate the civil liberties and freedoms of humanity, including liberty of individual conscience, free speech, and the right to assemble to protest tyranny. The tools being utilized to accomplish these ends are:


  1. A so-called “climate emergency”, which requires supranational control over the nations of the earth for the common good;
  2. The claimed need to centralize information in the form of digital ID and digital currency to control all movement and all economic involvement;
  3. The so-called “Covid emergency” which requires universal participation in a global health initiative to inject humanity with dangerous and ineffective drugs created by corporations who are immune to legal liability or the standard laws of transparency;
  4. Trans-genderism and sexual immorality of every kind to break down family structures, personal independence, and what is left of biblical morality in the western world; and
  5. War and threats of war against non-compliant nations who will not submit to the New World Order.


What is far less well-known is the key involvement of the Papacy with the WEF, and the common interests,

communications and goals between Klaus Schwab and Pope Francis. Schwab and Francis also have a common mentor, a Marxist revolutionary archbishop from South America, Helder Camara. Camara endorsed Cuban communism, and endorsed armed rebellion against government.1


One of the key obstacles still standing between global totalitarian control by Pope Francis and the WEF, are national interests and the weakening national constitutions that protect civil liberties in individual countries. Global priorities clash violently with constitutional protections for individual rights. It is impossible for the WEF to control so-called “misinformation” if there is a recognized individual right of freedom of speech in a given land. In the globalist world view, the right of dissent and protest must be eliminated or at least dramatically weakened. That is why there is a constant narrative from elites like Pope Francis of the need to elevate the so-called “common good” (as defined by himself) as a priority superior to individual rights.


Principle WEF advisor, best-selling author and prominent globalist homosexual, Yuval Noah Harari, has declared that human rights are actually a fiction, that life has no meaning, and that the God of the Bible is dead.2


There is a connection between the Vatican’s war against individual rights and the centuries-old papal attacks on the idea of national sovereignty. The papacy has always claimed to be the vicar of Christ on earth, vested with all of Christ’s authority, and therefore above all civil powers.3 Pope Leo XIII famously declared, “We hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty.” And, as Pope Pius XI stated, “If there is a totalitarian regime, totalitarian in fact and by right – it is the regime of the Church, because man belongs totally to the Church.”4


The clash between the absolute power claimed by the Popes of Rome and the national constitutions which protect individuals from papal authoritarianism, is obvious.


"The Constitution of the United States guarantees liberty of conscience. Nothing is dearer or more fundamental. Pope Pius IX, in his Encyclical Letter of August 15, 1854, said: `The absurd and erroneous doctrines or ravings in defense of liberty of conscience are a most pestilential error--a pest, of all others, most to be dreaded in a state.' The same pope, in his Encyclical Letter of December 8, 1864, anathematized `those who assert the liberty of conscience and of religious worship,' also 'all such as maintain that the church may not employ force.'"5

The clash between papal power and nations right to self-government is equally clear.


Five centuries ago, when Martin Luther was condemned by the Pope by a papal bull, Exsurge Domine,6 a lengthy debate occurred within Germany as to whether Luther ought to be heard to answer to the charge of heresy by German authorities, or whether he should simply be handed over the Papacy to be presumably tortured by the Inquisition.


For himself, Luther burned the papal bull against him in the gate of Wittenberg in 1520.


Pope Leo X, who had issued the bull condemning Luther, demanded that Luther be turned over immediately. But German authorities were not so sure. Perhaps Luther ought to be given an opportunity to answer to the charge of heresy before German officials so his defense could be heard and judged accordingly. This enraged the pope. The Pope had already declared Luther guilty of heresy. The Germans had no right to consider anew a question which the Pope had already determined!


The pope’s agent, Papal Nuncia Jerome Aleander, railed against the interference with the papal bull by German authorities. When asked whether Luther should be permitted to appear before a secular tribunal to be examined as to the faith, Aleander replied, “Never”. He stated:


As for myself, I would gladly confront this Satan [referring pejoratively to brave Luther], but the authority of the Holy See should not be prejudiced by subjection to the judgment of the laity. One who has been condemned by the pope, the cardinals, and prelates should be heard only in prison. The laity, including the emperor, are not in a position to review the case. The only competent judge is the pope. How can the Church be called the ship of Peter if Peter is not at the helm? How can she be the ark of Noah if Noah is not the captain? If Luther wants to be heard, he can have a safe conduct to Rome. Or His Majesty might send him to the inquisitors in Spain.7 [emphasis added]


And here, in plain sight, is the root of papal opposition to the concept of national authority, or nationalism. If a nation is independent from papal (or globalist) authority, then the papacy (or globalists) cannot compel a nation and its people to do anything. The concept of national autonomy must be broken, or at least cowed to the place where nations become compliant. In the words of Aleander, the laity are in no position to judge for themselves. If the laity, the common people, the common nations, have sovereignty to judge for themselves, they may well refuse to bend the knee to Covid vaccines, digital IDs, or climate Sunday laws, the modern sacraments of Pope Francis’ papacy.


The Vatican has been working for over two centuries to recover the loss of its global authority since Napoleon took Pope Pius VI captive, and broke the back of papal domination over the minds and consciences of the nations. Nationalist interests, and national constitutions, still stand in the way of the re-establishment of global papal control.


Below are some recent examples of papal objections to the concept of nationalism.


“No one nation can provide the common good for its people all by itself”, Francis said. “The common good has become global and nations must come together for their own benefit.”

“On one side”, Francis said, “there is “a solidarity grounded in justice and the attainment of peace and unity within the human family, which is God’s plan for our world,” while the other path, he warned, “emphasizes self-sufficiency, nationalism, protectionism, individualism and isolation.“It [nationalism] must not prevail,” he added.

“Our ‘we,’ both in the wider world and within the Church, is crumbling and cracking due to myopic and aggressive forms of nationalism and radical individualism,” he said.

In our time, world peace is “threatened by forms of particularism and nationalism, driven by selfish interests and unbridled greed,” the pontiff told a delegation from B’nai B’rith International, a nonprofit Jewish organization. “This increases the risk, in the end, of even greater contempt for human dignity and rights.”

Conclusion


The Biblical book of Revelation predicts a global coalition between the papacy, the nations of the earth, and the merchants of the earth which prohibits buying and selling except for those who have the mark of the authority of the first beast of Revelation 13 (the papacy). Covid demonstrated the collaboration of these powers to deprive individuals of mobility and civil liberties. Humanity is moving at lightning speed toward the establishment of much greater controls in these areas.

He placed it here in Rome, which had been the capital of that marvelous, yet limited empire, thus making it the capital of the entire world.

MICHIGAN HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES PASS RESOLUTION TO ESTABLISH PAPAL HOLIDAY

By Wings of Liberty • November 22, 2025
On November 13, 2025, the Michigan House of Representatives passed House Resolution 222 which officially declares November 23, 2025, as “Christ the King Sunday”. Since we had never heard of this festival some research was in order. The Feast of Christ the King is an annual Catholic holy day instituted by Pope Pius XI in 1925 in an encyclical entitled Quas Primas, Latin for “In the First”. i SPOILER ALERT: If you have read papal encyclicals before, this one is just as pretentiously arrogant as the rest of them, full of flowery rubbish the substance of which is that the pope ought to be reinstated as ruler of the world, and outrageous lies about utopia on planet earth if this were to occur. The encyclical would be ridiculous but for the deadly serious history of the murder of millions of martyrs by the Papacy. Rome never changes. Quas Primas was written by Pius XI prior to the Lateran Pact in 1929 which restored civil power to the Papacy. In consequence, the encyclical is a manifesto for the restoration of the union of church and state, and contains a number of statements to this effect: If We ordain that the whole Catholic world shall revere Christ as King, We shall minister to the need of the present day, and at the same time provide an excellent remedy for the plague which now infects society. We refer to the plague of anti-clericalism, its errors and impious activities. [Anticlericalism is criticism of the clergy, especially clergy who are always meddling with civil power]. … Moreover, the annual and universal celebration of the feast of the Kingship of Christ will draw attention to the evils which anticlericalism has brought upon society in drawing men away from Christ, and will also do much to remedy them. While nations insult the beloved name of our Redeemer by suppressing all mention of it in their conferences and parliaments, we must all the more loudly proclaim his kingly dignity and power, all the more universally affirm his rights. … When we pay honor to the princely dignity of Christ, men will doubtless be reminded that the Church, founded by Christ as a perfect society, has a natural and inalienable right to perfect freedom and immunity from the power of the state; and that in fulfilling the task committed to her by God of teaching, ruling, and guiding to eternal bliss those who belong to the kingdom of Christ, she cannot be subject to any external power. … But how is this connected to Resolution 222? Why is the Michigan House of Representatives making resolutions to impose Catholic religious festivals on the people of Michigan, most of whom are not Catholic? The answer is that Christian Nationalists today want the same thing Pius XI wanted when he wrote Quas Primas in 1925, and created the Feast of Christ the King: a union of church and state. The Michigan resolution was sponsored by Republican state Representative and Catholic, Josh Schriver, who also sponsored a resolution in September 2025 to honor Pope Leo XIV upon his election as pope. Mr. Schriver has ties to the so-called Christian Nationalist movement and its ongoing efforts to unite church and state in America. In a 2023 talk radio interview on WCHY-FM, Mr. Schriver declared that “it's God who appoints our elective officials. Honestly, I work for God and not for man. And so I answer to one person, and that's Jesus Christ.” Mr. Schriver’s assertion that he is not accountable to the citizens of the 66 th district is something they will perhaps remember when they have occasion to revisit the ballot box. But we digress. More to the point, the Michigan House of Representatives has taken steps to unite church and state, a violation of the Establishment Clause which is extended to apply to the individual states via the 14 th Amendment. See Everson v. Board of Education, 330 U.S. 1 (1947) - https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/330/1/. Bible prophecy foretells of a coming union of church and state in America, and in the world at large, and the imposition of the mark of papal authority, which is Sunday sacredness. It is not so far fetched as one watches events in the state of Michigan.

The Sun Is Setting on the British Empire

By Wings of Liberty • October 18, 2025
Humanity is accelerating toward the fulfillment of Bible prophecy and the events warned of in Revelation 13-18. Ecumenism is bringing Protestantism back into harmony with the Papacy. The wall of separation between church and state is under attack from religeonists who covet state power to compel their dogmas on the human population. We have passed another signpost. The Church of England split from the Roman Catholic Church in 1534 during the Reformation over a dispute about papal authority and the annulment of Henry VIII’s marriage. As a result of this schism, Anglicans have long had an established creed similar to the Westminster Confession of the Reformed Church. Like the Westminster Confession, the “39 Articles of Anglicanism” formally rejects the papal claim to universal supremacy for the Bishop of Rome. The 39 Articles of Anglicanism include the following: “As the Church of Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Antioch, have erred, so also the Church of Rome hath erred, not only in their living and manner of Ceremonies, but also in matters of Faith”; “The Romeish Doctrine concerning Purgatory, Pardons, Worshiping and Adoration, as well of Images as of Relics, and also Invocation of Saints, is a fond thing, vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God”, “It is a thing plainly repugnant to the Word of God, and the custom of the Primitive Church to have public Prayer in the Church, or to minister the Sacraments, in a tongue not understanded of the people”, “Bishops, Priests, and Deacons, are not commanded by God's Law, either to vow the estate of single life, or to abstain from marriage: therefore it is lawful for them, as for all other Christian men, to marry at their own discretion, as they shall judge the same to serve better to godliness”, and “ The Bishop of Rome hath no jurisdiction in this Realm of England.” The Popes assert they “hold upon this earth the place of God Almighty”. England rejected these boastful claims and the Pope’s presumptuous authority to dominate the minds and hearts of humanity. It is not a coincidence that while many other European countries were suffering under the oppression of the Inquisition, England was advancing toward empire. So vast was is influence at one time it was famously even claimed that “the sun never sets on the British empire”. But a great change has come. For some decades England, which never sufficiently distanced herself from Rome doctrineally, has been increasingly friendly toward the Papacy. Today, the globalism of the Roman pontiff is the globalism of King Charles III. The climate change agendas of Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV are also shared by King Charles III, the latter of who’s father publicly advocated for population reduction and compared humanity to a “plague”. England is also adopting digital IDs and carrying out mass surveillance and censorship on its own citizens, a practice near to the hearts of the prelates of Rome, to be sure. And now, King Charles III, who holds the title of not only king but Supreme Governor of the Anglican Church, is headed to Rome to hold a public prayer ceremony with Pope Leo XIV. The leader of the Anglican Church has not engaged in public prayer with the Bishop of Rome for approximately 500 years. According to the Royal Palace, “This will be the first state visit, since the Reformation, where the Pope and the Monarch will pray together in an ecumenical service in the Sistine Chapel, and the first time the monarch will have attended a service in St Paul’s Outside the Walls, a church with an historic connection to the English Crown.” According to MSN News, Charles III will also accept a new title. “Charles is also being recogenised for the British monarchy’s historic association with the Papal Basilica of St Paul’s Outside the Walls in Rome, the seat of a Benedictine Abbey, and will be made “Royal Confrater” of the abbey.” Rome never changes. The Papacy has not retreated one letter from its false doctrines. It still claims authority over this earth. It still teaches the false doctrine of purgatory and forbids priests to marry, as well as many more false doctrines which Protestants, including Anglicans, object to. So why this ecumenical development today? The change is with the Anglican Church, which is drifting back toward the once-estranged mother as prophecy foretells. The light of sola scriptura that was brought to England by the Bible is being rejected. It seeks the company of the pope, the pretender to the throne of Christ. Like Israel of old, Anglicanism will say, “we have no king but Caesar.” Of all the Protestant denominations, Anglicanism is the closest to Catholicism. The pageantry and formal rites still have many similarities. England mirrors the union of church and state of Roman Catholicism by unifying church and state in the person of the monarch of England. It has no pope, but it has a king who claims to be the head of the church. Now that king will go to Rome. All roads lead there, it is said, and Protestantism has set itself to prove it. The sun is setting on the British empire after all.
