lightning hits St. Peter statue in Argentina

  • From the repost below: This latest lightning strike happened on December 17th, Bergoglio's birthday and the day before Fiducia supplicans. Inside that church is a statue of Our Lady of the Rosary; recent private revelation there claims to continue the Fatima messages.

    Andrea Cionci- "Buenos Aires: lightning on the halo and keys of St. Peter. Bergoglio at the end of the road?"
    Pope Head
    Dec 27, 2023  I am reposting another article by Andrea Cionci that was originally published in Sfero.

    Well, from a faith perspective, how should we interpret the lightning bolt that struck the statue of St. Peter on December 17th?
    Statue of Saint Peter, Buenos Aires


    On Sunday December 17, 2023, lightning literally pulverized the key and halo of the statue of Saint Peter, located on the facade of the Sanctuary of Our Lady of the Rosary of San Nicolas, north of Buenos Aires, Argentina. 

    The news was reported by the Telegram channel "The Pope's Pearls" : it seemed to be fake, given that no news could be found on the web, but the event has just been confirmed by the Reverend Father Justo Lofeudo, a priest who is certainly a Bergoglian.

    A typical "Ratzinger effect", evidently, that particular phenomenon whereby the Bergoglians or the una cuм, (Bergoglio's legitimist conservatives) unconsciously offer information, docuмents and testimonies that are very useful for the reconstruction of the Magna Quaestio. In this case it would obviously only be a "sign from Heaven" which, however, has been interpreted by many Catholics without too much difficulty.

    Father Lofeudo certainly did not realize the effect that the disclosure of the photo would have.

    The priests of the Sanctuary have issued a statement that rejects the symbolic interpretation of the fact, but not the fact itself: “The Sanctuary does not agree with the interpretation that has been given with respect for the damage produced in the image of the apostle Saint Peter.”

    What is striking, in fact, is that the event occurred on Jorge Mario Bergoglio's birthday, the day before the publication of the "Fiducia supplicans" declaration which opens up blessings for gαy couples.

    This measure marked a sort of point of no return: the faithful are starting to understand that something isn't working.
    Even the place where the accident occurred is rich in meaning: first of all, the Sanctuary of San Nicolas is in Argentina, homeland of the anti-pope, a few kilometers from Buenos Aires, the city of which Bergoglio was bishop for a long time.

    The channel “The Pope's Pearls” reports: “Above all, it is a place of worship and veneration because inside there is the beautiful statue of the Madonna of the Rosary, which appeared for years to the visionary Gladys Quiroga de Motta, starting from early 1980s, giving her more than 1800 messages.

    In them, the Holy Virgin says she has returned to continue the Apparitions of Fatima, and many of these clearly speak of the terrible struggle between the devil and the Church."

    Since February 11, 2013, various "suggestive" events have dotted the story of the usurpation of the Chair of Peter reconstructed in three docuмentaries in The "Ratzinger Code" investigation.

    We can remember the lightning that struck the Dome the same night as Pope Benedict's "resignation"; the inexplicable blocking of the bells of Castel Gandolfo following the invalid election of Francis; the killing of the doves released by Bergoglio by crows and seagulls; the fire of the Bethlehem chapel a few hours after Francis' visit; the fire in the Consistory Hall of Castel Gandolfo a few months ago, in the same days in which we published this appreciated report and many other events that Catholics of just a century ago would have interpreted as unequivocal "press releases" from the Eternal Father.

    Well, from a faith perspective, how to interpret the lightning that struck the statue of St. Peter on December 17th?

    It seems that the time for antipope Francis is coming to an end: heaven would have symbolically destroyed his halo of sanctity and disintegrated the key, which represents the pope's authority. Strange that the statue only held one key, it seems. Symbolically, the golden key alludes to power in the kingdom of heaven and the silver key indicates the spiritual authority of the papacy on earth. The rope connecting the key eyelets alludes to the link between the two powers.

    Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you, all things pass away: God never changes. Patience obtains all things. He who has God finds he lacks nothing; God alone suffices. - St. Teresa of Jesus

  • The picture is blurry to me...does it seem that the halo, hand, and key are missing?  So, are we to interpret that this man is not a Successor of Peter, he is not Catholic, and he does not have the power to bless, bind, and loose?

    Just wonderin...it is just a piece of rock after all.

  • Interesting. 

    It happened close to his hometown.

    Sedevacantists interpretations aside, the good Lord does not seem to be very happy with the man at all. It might be a sign for him to repent.

  • God's endorsement of sedeprivationism / sedeimpoundism :laugh1:

    Peter (the Pope) remained but without the power of the keys and the crown of papal authority.

    Interestingly, he also kept the shepherd's staff ... which dovetails with the Dimonds interpretation that Bergoglio is in fact "Peter the Roman" in the St. Malachi prophecies.

    But the shepherd's staff is also used to move the sheep around, directing them which way to go.  So this means that Bergoglio is in a position to move and manipulate the sheep (by virtue of the perception that he holds the office) but does so without the power of the keys and the crown of papal authority.

    There's still something about these pictures that look fake to me.

    Is there a link to this Novus Ordo priest's comments?  The Sanctuary's website doesn't seem to be updated since 2020, and I can't seem to find such a priest in Argentina.

    I did some research, and I have found the priest's website:


    https://padrelofeudo.perlascristianas.com/2020/06/padre-justo-lofeudo-bienvenida.html

    He is an Argentine who has lived in Spain for over twenty years. He is some sort of conservative, apparently.

    I did not find anything related to this event, but it does not seem completely absurd that he might be aware of events occuring in Buenos Aires.

    Possibly.  But where is this "statement" (other than from the one source)?

    The priests of the Sanctuary have issued a statement that rejects the symbolic interpretation of the fact, but not the fact itself: “The Sanctuary does not agree with the interpretation that has been given with respect for the damage produced in the image of the apostle Saint Peter.”

     Nothing on official accounts either:

    As amusing as it is, I would say that this is fake news.

    FWIW, there was a hurricane-level storm on 17th December that killed over a dozen people. In itself given the date, that's something.

    In the video below cued up @ 5:30, a caller claims to have spoken to the secretary at the sanctuary church, who confirmed that the damage to the statue of Saint Peter did happen. Hearsay? Ironclad verification? I don't know. Several Spanish-language anti-Bergoglio blogs have picked up the story but haven't added any new information.

    As for the official accounts, lack of evidence does not equal evidence of lack. I'd be more surprised if they hadn't squashed this occurrence since it doesn't play well with the approved narrative. It's a major pilgrimage site since the apparitions were acknowledged in 2016.

  • Most primary source seems to be Andrea Cionci (a well-known Italian Bennyvacantist, author of The Ratzinger Code):


    who then may have gotten it elsewhere (as per this prior video, linked to above):

  • Either way, I would have preferred that lightning directly struck the false pope rather than a statue of our first true pope.   Now that would have been a sign! :laugh1:

    I'm not sure.  Bergoglio has done a much greater service to Traditional Catholicism than Ratzinger ever did, since he's causing people to wake up about the Vatican II problem, whereas Ratzinger was putting them to sleep.

  • Cionci lists some other Bergoglian phenomena (some of which I hadn't heard of before):

    But I think that this one holds the key ... :laugh1:

    Yes, no need to confirm it further.
    Our enemies are capable of squashing news instantly.
    But you nailed it Soubirous.  Great find!
