Præfektura apostolica Poli arcici- The Polar Prefecture
Norway was partly converted to Christianity already in the 11th century, although the heathen believes continued to stay strong in certain regions of the country. In the 17th Century the nation was turned over to protestantism by force after the so called "Reformation" and a Lutheran "State Church" was imposed on everybody. For more than 2 Centuries it was forbidden to practise Catholicism in the region. But in 1855 the See of Rome was able to start a new mission in Norway and the Polar Region; the "Præfektura apostolica Poli arcici." And even though most Catholics abandoned their Catholic Traditions in order to be accepted by the Second Vatican Council sect, there are still Catholics left.. People who wish to stay faithful to the Teachings of the ancient, never changing Catholic Church, with it's Papacy, Doctrines and Traditions. People who reject heresies like modernism, freemasonry, false ecumenism and "salvation" in foreign religions. Regular Catholics in other words.
During history the Catholic Church has been given a great deal of miraculous incorruptible bodies of Saints. They just don't go trough normal decay after death, but stay the same. The oldest one that I have seen, is St. Silvanus who was martyred in 310 A.D. after getting his throat slid. He is still on display in Dubrovnik, Croatia and has been incorrupt for 1700 years!!
There was also such a miracle on Norwegian soil long time ago. An Irish princess, Sta Sunniva, that had come over by ship to the Norwegian island "Selja" and had been killed with her company in a landslide in a cave, while they were trying to escape from the hands of the local vikings, was found dead under some rocks about 30 years later. She looked like she was only sleeping, and the bones of those that were killed with her had a sweet fragrance. The King of Norway, Olav Tryggvason, had her relics put in a beautiful coffine in 996 A.D., and this miracle at Selja played an important part in the miracolous conversion of this barbaric nation of pirates from brutal paganism into Christianity.
After a conversation I had with my husband yesterday I have decided to share my perspective on this guy: "Paleocrat.." He announced a while back that he had become a sedevacantist, and immediately he started being a teatcher of the faith, both online and in the group he joined, the CMRI I think it was. Anyway.. it's just annoying. Sure, I have a blog, it's mostly here in case anyone in my region would want to know if there are other sedevacantists around. Now, St: Paul, a man who even before his conversion to Christianity more or less knew the Old testament by heart, still spent 3 years in the desert contemplating, learning, seeking God before he started his great mission trips. And then you have guys like this, who always want to be the teacher right away, the "intellectual" among us. Still, he tends to quote a lot of things that are just obvious discoveries by other traditionalists, works that are not even translated into English. It's not a bad thing to quote others, but why make it sound like you have red the whole thing yourself? Has he even red the whole Bible all the way through? I have my doubts. And now his latest news. He is no longer a sedevacantist. He never was in the first place. Like most people of his kind, he has all the way rejected the salvation dogma, a clear sign of his bad will. He belongs to the kind of people who believes that there is a possability of saving your soul through ignorance when you just follow your consciense. It's the same as saying that ALMIGHTY GOD should be ignorant of the state of a soul, or dependant on people in order to share the truth with them. What a blasphemy against God's greatness! So now Paleocrat has come to the conclution that sedevacantism is to reject authority, to operate without jurisdiction, that it is spiritual anarchy!! That the code of Canon Law from 1917 leaves all judgement to the Pope and Cardinals. Has he still not understood that we are sedevacantists because all the things that the Church and the Popes have taught us during the A.D. era matters more to us than the number of people who still believe in it today does? It is BECAUSE the authority of the Church matters so much to us that we are sedevacantists. We reject the constant corruption of the Faith. Has he forgotten about the warnings given to the Church by our Lady of Fatima? Or by Pope Leo the XIII and his prayer to St. Michael the Archangel? Has he forgotten about the oath against modernism? And when it comes to jurisdiction, who in his mind are supposed to give this jurisdiction? The non-existing arch-bishops? In Norway there are no priests, no bishops.. So when we find a traditional priest somewhere else and he agrees to come and visit us, should we not receive him only because there does not exist anyone who still keeps the faith to give him that jurisdiction? If there was such a person, the priest would obviously not serve here without his blessing. But now he is free to serve us because we live in a clergy-desert! We have for now nothing and noone but God to watch over us. Or should we turn to heretics for this jurisdiction? Men outside the Church? Or does the Code of Canon Law from 1917 force us to go to a false imitation of the Pope or the Cardinals for jurisdiction? You have got to be kidding me! They are by their own words and actions outside the Church. The Divine Law condemns them. They are NOT above God Himself and not free to do whatever they want. So this guy can continue to go where the wind blows, to seek the attention that he obviously is in great need of. And the ones who want to be Catholic can continue to do so, trusting in God to keep them safe and not in heretics and trange pop-up organizations. It's not spiritual anarchy, it is obedience to Christ and to His Church who never changes! Here is his latest news, and let it speak for itself. Don't be fooled.
