A Holy Land Pilgrimage with Taylor Marshall


(click images to enlarge)


Holy Land Pilgrimage, New Saint Thomas Institute, 206 Tours - Pilgrimages, 30 May 2019



The company Taylor Marshall is using, like himself, is into numerology this time it’s based upon the false apparitions of Medjugorje.

‘Tay’ tells you all about the pilgrimage



This is your “Spiritual Leader” on the Holy Land Pilgrimage


Easter Harlem Shake, On This Rock, Fr. John Hollowell’s blog, 31 March 2013



Special Guests: Dr. Taylor Marshall’s Family...


Learn the meaning of Christmas  to ask for presents and wear immodest clothing!



This isn’t one-time errant immodesty...






The handbook for the pilgrimage...



Marshall’s book ‘The Crucified Rabbi’ will be the basis for explaining Christ’s life and the Holy Land on this pilgrimage. In this book Marshall rightfully point outs “there is a vast difference between the biblical Judaism of Moses and the Talmudic Judaism of the rabbis in the centuries after Christ” but then proceeds to ignore this for the remainder of the book. He quotes from a censored version of the Talmud, takes rabbis at their word going so far as to take rabbinical concepts with no relation to the New Testament and proceed to create them out of thin air.  One example is the kippah worn by Talmudic Jews. Marshall explains this was done by Jews out of piety and imitation of the priests of the Temple hence Catholic clergy wear it, “because it is a sign that a man is wholly dedicated to the Lord.” As we have demonstrated on this blog quoting numerous rabbis, wearing a kippah is not biblical, it is Talmudic, and an outward anti-Christian sign. Besides the redacted Talmud, the author looks to a member of Opus Judei, protestant Bibles, rabbis, Maimonides, Jewish historians, and a Russian Orthodox priest to explain who Jesus was, the Sacraments, and the Church.  Reading it one also sees that Marshall uses errors of Protestantism. In fact, his book is so filled with errors, it would take a book itself to correct them all.  It should be apparent that with the few examples we gave and the screenshots above that Taylor Marshall doesn’t grasp much of the Catholic Faith or its practice. This shouldn’t be a surprise as in the book’s Acknowledgements he thanks — Hebrew-Catholics, Opus Judei members, and more than a few of the hierarchy caught up in the sexual crimes recently brought to light.  It suffices to say that this is not a book one should read much less use on a pilgrimage to explain anything about the Catholic Faith.

Opus Dei Watch




The website akaCatholic has been publishing the research of Randy Engel on Opus Dei.  Both have done a great service to English language readers as it is difficult to find honest reporting in English on Opus Dei as the personal prelature keeps a tight lid on what is written about them through their full spectrum dominance of the religious medias.  While we at Call Me Jorge... don’t agree with everything Randy Engel writes, she should be given kudos for shining the light on Opus Dei.

Francis excited to make Romero a saint



“To all the young people gathered in these happy days for the canonization of Monsignor Romero: a big greeting and my blessing. And please do not forget to pray for me. To all, a big hug!” 
— Francis, in the below video







“[Romero was] a martyr of the church of the Second Vatican Council.” — Archbishop Vincenzo Paglia





“Few know that Romero received spiritual direction from an Opus Dei priest and personally knew the future saint and Opus Dei founder Josemaria Escriva. When the latter died in 1975, he wrote a letter to Paul VI asking the Pope to jump start his canonization process, writing: “Monsignor Escriva . . . was able to unite in his life a continuous dialogue with Our Lord and a great humanity; one could tell he was a man of God, and his manner was full of sensitivity, kindness, and good humor.” As recommended by Opus Dei priests, Romero wore a cilice on Fridays as a form of self-mortification until his death.” 

Oscar Romero’s Exaggerating Critics, First Things, (7 March 2013)





Oscar Romero, “Personally, I owe deep gratitude to the priests involved with the Work, to whom I have entrusted with much satisfaction the spiritual direction of my own life and that of other priests.

People from all social classes find in Opus Dei a secure orientation for living as children of God in the midst of their daily family and social obligations. And this is doubtless due to the life and teaching of its founder.”

Archbishop Romero's cordial relations with Opus Dei continued right up to the day of his death. Fernando Sáenz, who eventually succeeded him as Archbishop of San Salvador, says that after writing this letter, Archbishop Romero took advantage of being in Rome to pray before the founder's tomb, and became visibly moved. “His spirituality, in some sense, was nourished by the spirituality of Josemaría Escrivá. He read The Way frequently.”

In his September 6, 1979 Diary entry, Archbishop Romero says that Opus Dei “carries out a silent work of deep spirituality among professional people, university students and laborers…I think this is a mine of wealth for our Church—the holiness of the laity in their own profession.”

The day he was assassinated, Archbishop Romero spent the morning with Fernando Sáenz at a recollection for priests organized by Opus Dei.

the strange wakes of Opus Dei


Recently, we received a question asking us why we refer to Opus Dei (formally known as The Prelature of the Holy Cross and Opus Dei) as Opus Judei.  There are several reasons for this, the strongest being that many of the teachings of José María Escriba resemble Talmudic Judaism if not are borrowed from it. Below is one example of borrowing from Talmudic Judaism. The wakes of the founder of Opus Judei, José María Escriba, his successor, Álvaro del Portillo, and his successor, Javier Echevarría, are bizarre. Have you ever seen a Catholic laid out on a carpet on the floor?

John Paul II came to Álvaro del Portillo’s wake which was carried out in the same manner.

You guessed it, Javier Echevarría lays on the floor for his wake too!


Excerpt from Rabbinical Seminary textbook — Jewish rules of mourning — endorsed by chief rabbi of Rome, Riccardo Di Segni.

Seminario D. Almagia, Carcucci Editore, Roma (1980), p. 17


The uses concerning the care of the dead are marked with extreme simplicity. (M.C. p. 355) About 20 minutes after death, the body is stripped, covered with a white sheet and then [put] lying on the floor.”

There is poison in the mother but her milk is pure?


Are Taylor Marshall’s teachings part of the poison?



(UPDATE 11 JANUARY 2019: MR. MARSHALL PULLED THIS VIDEO FROM YOUTUBE BUT HIS ORIGINAL POST CAN BE SEEN HERE PROMOTING THIS VIDEO AS WELL AS AN ARCHIVED VERSION HERE.)


(UPDATE 23 JANUARY 2019: A KIND READER SENT US THIS LINK FROM CHURCHPOP WHICH PROVIDES A TRANSCRIPT OF MR. MARSHALL’S VIDEO.) 



“I was doing an examination of conscience before bed,” he explained, describing a common traditional Catholic practice, “and I was thinking on that point of being worried… about the Holy Catholic Church, Mother Church.
“And as I was, suddenly I saw this beautiful woman. She had blond hair, she was perfect, no wrinkles, no spots, and I immediately discerned that this was Holy Mother the Church.
And she was writhing in pain. She was in a bed, there were sheets on her, and she was very sick. And I noticed that her breasts were engorged with milk, tons of milk. And there were babies and children crying out to her that were hungry. And she wanted to feed them, and she was upset, but she was so sick she could hardly sit up from her bed.
“And then I thought to myself, ‘Oh she’s poisoned, she doesn’t want to nurse the children because then she’ll give them the poison.’ And then there was this voice, it was like God or an angel, I don’t know, and it said, ‘No, the milk is still pure.
“And so I saw her there in all of her beauty, but so sick and struggling and loving those children and seeing all that milk stored up there. And I realized that the sacramental graces, the dogma, the doctrine, the morality, all of that in the Church is pure.
There’s poison in the Church, the Church is hurting, there’s always been some poison in the Church. And Mother Church still loves us and Mother Church still wants to give us milk, and she will, but it’s a difficult time. But the milk is pure. The sacramental graces of Holy Mother Church is pure. She’s still beautiful, she’s still immaculate, there’s still nothing sinful, wrong, or broken with Mother Church. But there has been introduced something into her that is poisonous, and so she’s struggling a little bit.
“So we just need to love Mother Church, and we need to be fed by Mother Church, and be patient, and know that any incorruption that enters the Church does not affect the milk flow. The nutrition that Mother Church gives us is always pure, it’s always unadulterated, we can always trust that until the end of time.
Hope that’s a comfort to you as it was for me. God bless, bye.”


(UPDATE 2 JUNE 2019: THANKS TO THE READER WHO SENT US THIS VIDEO.)





Like Cardinal Burke, Taylor Marshall is a promoter of the Association of Hebrew Catholics.



The Crucified Rabbi: Judaism & the Origins of Catholic 
Christianity by Taylor R. Marshall (2009) epub edition.


Dr. Marshall correctly states the fact that Talmudic Judaism and the faith 
of the Israelites in the Old Testament are not the same. (p. 33)

Here, Taylor Marshall explains that the Old Covenant was once salvific (p. 34) which is contrary to the Gospels, “For if justice be by the law, then Christ died in vain.” (Galatians 2, 21).  Isn’t Marshall’s position a form of Protestant Dispensationalism?

Dr. Marshall finds Talmudic statements, which condemn Gentiles, acceptable and in the next breathe says that as long as Gentiles are not cruel idolators [i.e. worshipers Jesus the Christ] they have a place in the world to come [where they will inherit hell]. (p. 227)



Just what type of milk is Taylor Marshall imbibing if he spouts-off the un-Catholic garbage above?



***** UPDATE 11 MARCH 2018 *****

Dr. Marshall has Opus (Ju)Dei connections at the least...

Greg Burke commemorates All Souls’ Day




One shouldn’t be surprised that the director of the Vatican Press Office and Opus (ju)Dei cult member, Greg Burke, chose to post the above photo to his twitter account for All Souls’ Day.  When one’s religion like Francis and Mr. Burke is Holocaustianity, the Faithful Departed, includes the perfidious Talmudic Jews.  Francis wrote in Evangelii gaudium (#247), “We hold the Jewish people in special regard because their covenant with God has never been revoked, for ‘the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable’. The Church... looks upon the people of the covenant and their faith as one of the sacred roots of her own Christian identity.”  The cornerstone of the Novus Ordo edifice is the ‘Holocaust’ and the rabbis’ kabbalistic weapon, Nostra Aetate.

the hits keep on coming — “Filial Correction” accuses Francis of propagating heresy


Francis takes another blow!


Francis the ‘tango club bouncer’


Francis ‘the humble’ can’t help it.  Everybody is out to get him or so he perceives.  The first hit was his anger with Sandro Magister publishing 13 cardinals objections to the Synod, next up was the Anti-Francis Dossier making the rounds through the Vatican, followed by 45 scholars condemning Amoris Laetitia as heretical, then the big hit - Francis’ boiling over with rage at the public release of the five dubia, afterwards were the anti-Francis pasquino and the Fake L’Osservatore Romano, and subsequently the 25-page “Filial Correction” titled Correctio Filialis De Haeresibus Propagatis (“Filial Correction on Account of the Propagation of Heresies”) signed by 62 scholars.

This “Filial Correction” was given to Francis on 11 August 2017 but has only become public now since Francis, as is his modus operandi, ignored it.

This “Filial Correction” accuses Francis of spreading heresy in Amoris Laetita seven times!  The introduction of press release for the “Filial Correction” says it all:

source: Correctio Filialis de haeresibus propagatis, Press Release on the ‘Filial Correction to Pope Francis’

Ouch!

A summary of the document can be read (click here) and the full English text of Correctio Filialis De Haeresibus Propagatis (click here).  One can peruse the 62 signatories (click here) which interestingly was signed by Opus Dei’s Dr. Gerard J. M. van den Aardweg, the European editor of the Empirical Journal of Same-Sex Sexual Behavior, and only one Bishop, Bernard Fellay the Superior General of the SSPX.  The list is a who’s who of those upset with Francis.  One more person of interest to readers is Fr. Robert Brucciani, the District superior of the SSPX in Great Britain, who was responsible for the disgusting Brook Sexual Behaviors Traffic Light Tool being part of the SSPX’s “St. Michael’s School Child Protection Policy, Procedure and Guidance”.  Noticeably absent are the signatures of Raymond Burke, a false conservative; Walter Brandmuller, who must still be considering a ‘fraternal correction’; and Athanasius Schneider, he must be busy with interreligious dialogue!

Now that the “Filial Correction” has been made public, how will Francis respond?




Things continue to become 

more and more 

interesting at the chaotic Vatican!

the new evangelization in Austria


Sabine Latzenhofer, a pastoral assistant carries the monstrance in the Feast of Corpus Christi procession (15 June 2017).  Afterwards, she reads from the gospel and blesses the faithful with holy water.  This happened on 15 June 2017 under Opus Dei bishop, Klaus Küng, in the dicoese of St. Pölten, in the municipality of Kirchbach in Austria.

Francis is a Latin (American) styled ruler who reigns with confusion and chaos



Holy Smoke with Damian Thompson & Dr. Ed Condon 



Unspoken of in the interview are two items.  Firstly, is that Francis ruled in Argentina with the same dictatorship of confusion he is presently using.  Secondly, is the role Opus Dei plays in managing the public message of Francis through its control of the Holy See Press Office and with its many media proxies.

All is fair in love and war — and Opus Dei


This is Randy Engel’s follow-up piece to “All the Men Behind the Opus Dei Curtain”, concerning the E. Michael Jones — Michael Voris Affair.  We must applaud Engel for the research she did in this article, especially exposing the concept of “pillería” which was espoused by the late José María Mariano Escriba Albás (aka Saint Josemaría Escrivá de Balaguer).  “Pillería” means ‘dirty tricks’, in other words — lying, cheating, stealing, murdering, etc... — breaking the Ten Commandments.  Escrivá wrote in his book, Christ is Passing By, “Be imitators of God, ... cooperating humbly but fervently in the divine purpose of mending what is broken, of saving what is lost, of bringing back to order what sinful man has put out of order, of leading to its goal what has gone astray, of re-establishing the divine balance of all creation.”  Escrivá through Opus (Ju)Dei instructed his “apostolates” to use “pillería” in the banking, financial and business worlds at what he termed,  “Christianized capitalism”.  With this “Christianized capitalism” and “pillería” his “apostolates” will mend God’s creation or perform “Tikkun Olam”.  How diabolical and evil to think that one can perfect what God has created much less to perfect it by doing evil.  Sadly, the rank-and-file mind controlled members of the Opus (Ju)Dei cult continue to march blank-faced to the beating of the Kabbalistic drum, thinking it Catholicism.  We at Call Me Jorge... hope and pray that Randy Engel will continue to bring to light the degeneracy of Opus (Ju)Dei particularly its role in covering-up the sex crimes of the Novus Ordo clergy including Cardinal Pell through its proxies in the media.

What is a personal prelature?


Get ready for it!







TITLE IV.
PERSONAL PRELATURES (Cann. 294 - 297)
Can. 294 After the conferences of bishops involved have been heard, the Apostolic See can erect personal prelatures, which consist of presbyters and deacons of the secular clergy, to promote a suitable distribution of presbyters or to accomplish particular pastoral or missionary works for various regions or for different social groups.
Can. 295 §1. The statutes established by the Apostolic See govern a personal prelature, and a prelate presides offer it as the proper ordinary; he has the right to erect a national or international seminary and even to incardinate students and promote them to orders under title of service to the prelature.
§2. The prelate must see to both the spiritual formation and decent support of those whom he has promoted under the above-mentioned title.
Can. 296 Lay persons can dedicate themselves to the apostolic works of a personal prelature by agreements entered into with the prelature. The statutes, however, are to determine suitably the manner of this organic cooperation and the principal duties and rights connected to it.
Can. 297 The statutes likewise are to define the relations of the personal prelature with the local ordinaries in whose particular churches the prelature itself exercises or desires to exercise its pastoral or missionary works, with the previous consent of the diocesan bishop.



TITLE III.
SACRED MINISTERS OR CLERICS (Cann. 232 - 293)
CHAPTER II. THE ENROLLMENT, OR INCARDINATION, OF CLERICS
Can. 271 §1. Apart from the case of true necessity of his own particular church, a diocesan bishop is not to deny permission to clerics, whom he knows are prepared and considers suitable and who request it, to move to regions laboring under a grave lack of clergy where they will exercise the sacred ministry. He is also to make provision that the rights and duties of these clerics are determined through a written agreement with the diocesan bishop of the place they request.
§2. A diocesan bishop can grant permission for his clerics to move to another particular church for a predetermined time, which can even be renewed several times. Nevertheless, this is to be done so that these clerics remain incardinated in their own particular church and, when they return to it, possess all the rights which they would have had if they had been dedicated to the sacred ministry there.
§3. For a just cause the diocesan bishop can recall a cleric who has moved legitimately to another particular church while remaining incardinated in his own church provided that the agreements entered into with the other bishop and natural equity are observed; the diocesan bishop of the other particular church, after having observed these same conditions and for a just cause, likewise can deny the same cleric permission for further residence in his territory.



TITLE II.
RELIGIOUS INSTITUTES (Cann. 607 - 709)
CHAPTER V. THE APOSTOLATE OF INSTITUTES
Can. 681 §1. Works which a diocesan bishop entrusts to religious are subject to the authority and direction of the same bishop, without prejudice to the right of religious superiors according to the norm of  can. 678, §§2 and 3.
§2. In these cases, the diocesan bishop and the competent superior of the institute are to draw up a written agreement which, among other things, is to define expressly and accurately those things which pertain to the work to be accomplished, the members to be devoted to it, and economic matters.
