THE THREE PILLARS OF CHURCH AUTHORITY

The Catholic Church was founded by Jesus Christ and entrusted to the Apostles, with Saint Peter given a unique role of leadership among them (cf. CCC 880–882). Through apostolic succession, this Church continues across generations, faithfully safeguarding and handing on what Christ revealed.

The Church’s authority rests on three inseparably connected pillars—Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium—often compared to the three legs of a stool, where each supports the others.

Sacred Scripture is the written Word of God, contained in the books of the Old and New Testaments, inspired by the Holy Spirit and teaching the truth necessary for our salvation (cf. CCC 101–107).

Sacred Tradition is the living transmission of the Gospel entrusted by Christ to the Apostles and handed on in the Church through their successors. It includes teachings, practices, and ways of living the faith that were not written down but preserved under the guidance of the Holy Spirit (cf. CCC 76–83).

The Magisterium is the Church’s teaching authority, exercised by the Pope and the bishops in communion with him. Its role is to authentically interpret the Word of God—whether written in Scripture or handed on in Tradition—without standing above it, but serving it faithfully (cf. CCC 85–87).

Together, Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium form a single sacred deposit of faith. Working in harmony, they ensure that the truth revealed by Christ is preserved, correctly interpreted, and faithfully taught in the life of the Church (cf. CCC 95).

Layperson: Do Not Put Your Hand "Pray Over" Anyone You Are Not in Authority With‼️

What is your authority to pray over someone who is not your immediate family member? Do not attempt also to do deliverance unless you have authority-unless you have Bishop approval, especially for lay faithful and members of the Charismatic Community. Yes, there can be success, but the problem is it can retaliate to you, family members, career, business, finances, employment, married life, relationship with children, effect on your children like they do disobedience and doing sinful things, accidents, and many more... so be careful.

When someone asks you for prayer, you may pray together, or ask the Blessed Mother, Holy Angels, and Saints to intercede for them rather than declaratively pray over them.

Example: do not say: "In the name of Jesus, I rebuke Satan and sickness of cancer to the body of Alex" (your neighbor or just a stranger asking for prayer). The devil will take it seriously because you don't have authority.

Instead, you say: "Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for Alexander who is suffering from cancer."

Fr. Chad Ripperger, a prominent exorcist, warns us not to lay our hands or attempt to pray for someone for deliverance and binding prayer (for healing too) if we are not in the authority of that person. We can only ask the Saints and Blessed Mother to supplicate for them. The devil knows and follows the natural authority like husband and wife, parents to children, children to parents, and sibling to siblings, grandparents to grandchild. Aunts, uncles, friends, relatives, and anything outside the immediate family have no authority-thus we pray in supplication to Saints and Mama Mary so there would be no affliction or retaliation.

Priests, bishops, cardinals, and the Pope have full authority over the faithful, so if you are sick, oppressed, and obsessed, seek their prayers and help.

Bible Verse: "Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." (James 4:7)

Saint Quote: "We are not allowed to do by ourselves what God has reserved for His ministers." - St. Francis de Sales

If You Can't Overcome Ma********on, Homosexuality, Premarital S*x, Vices and Po*******hy, Do Not Dare Enter the Seminary – You Will Be a L***r in the Church‼️‼️

In today's time of confusion and compromise, we must boldly speak the truth, especially when the sacred priesthood is at stake. The Church is not in need of many priests—but of holy, pure, obedient, and zealous priests who will set the world on fire with truth and charity, not lust and scandal.

A Call to Examine Yourself Deeply

If you are a man considering the priesthood or are already inside the seminary, yet you are still:

- Ma********ng
- Watching po*******hy
- Deep in vice—smoking, drinking, partying
- Materialistic and worldly
- Living in homosexuality or bisexuality
- Entertaining a romantic relationship with a woman

STOP.
You are bringing termites into the House of God. You are a l***r in the Church.

The seminary is not a rehab center for persistent, unrepentant sinners—it is the soil where saints must be cultivated. Every single unconfessed, repeated act of lust or perversion in the seminary is an invitation to demons. It is blasphemy. It is sacrilege. You commit sin on holy ground, and the judgment will be severe.

No priest enters Heaven alone; he brings souls with him. No priest enters Hell alone; he drags souls with him by his false teachings and scandal.

The Church is bleeding today because many men with no intention of holiness have entered the seminaries. They hide their secret sins under cassocks. They become priests with addictions, hidden boyfriends or girlfriends, pride, and compromise.

Father Chad Ripperger, exorcist, reminds us:

"Your vices are a reflection of how bad you are. Demons use them as doorways. You cannot defeat the devil if the devil already has you."

One Priest Can Be Enough—If He Is Holy

St. John Vianney, patron saint of parish priests, was told by the devil himself:

"If there were but one more priest like you, my kingdom would collapse."

But today, instead of another St. John Vianney, many seminarians laugh at the Confession line. They mock purity. They joke about ma********on. They normalize impurity as "just a phase" or "a manly weakness." These are lies from the pit of hell.

There was once a seminarian who was expelled from his first seminary for homosexuality. He transferred, committed abuse again, and was removed. Now he parades himself on social media with a woman—still bisexual, still confused—and scandalizes the faithful. This is not a vocation. This is diabolical infiltration.

Abraham pleaded with God to spare S***m if only 10 righteous men were found—but there were not. Only Lot was spared. Holiness matters.

Stop Abusing God's Mercy

If you are addicted to sexual sin, vice, or double life, do not dare put on the Roman collar. God will stop you eventually. Maybe your sponsor will leave you. Maybe you will fall into confusion. Maybe you will be exposed. Because God will not be mocked.

You are not only risking your soul—you are risking thousands of souls who will listen to your future homilies, follow your example, and receive sacraments from your unworthy hands.

"Think thrice. Be holy. Avoid sin and evil."

If you truly feel called to the priesthood, clean your soul first:

- Make a general confession
- Go to daily Mass and Adoration
- Cut off all vice and near occasions of sin
- Be guided by a holy spiritual director
- Live in accountability and humility

Until you are living a life of chastity, detachment, humility, and prayer, you are not ready. Delay your entrance or leave the seminary until God makes you ready.

God Deserves Priests Who Reflect His Holiness

The Church has enough Judas priests. She needs John the Baptist. She needs Padre Pio. She needs men of fire, not filth.

Do not bring your unrepentant lust and vice into the sanctuary. It is better to be a holy layman than a damned priest.

Final Word:

"The priesthood is the love of the heart of Jesus." – St. John Vianney

Do not trample that Heart by dragging your unclean passions into His altar. Cleanse yourself, or do not come at all.
