On this 233rd anniversary of the Storming of the Bastille and the outbreak of the Revolution, let us look at what France was and shall be again. We speak of that Revolution of which le Comte Joseph de Maistre said,
There is a satanic quality to the French Revolution that distinguishes it from everything we have ever seen or anything we are ever likely to see in the future.
Unfortunately,
the good Count could not see into the future to envision the even
greater satanic horrors spawned by the Revolution in France.
Pope St Pius X told Cardinal Luçon, Archbishop of Rheims in 1907:
“The
Baptism of Clovis marked the birth of a great nation: the Tribe of
Judah of the New Era, which always prospered as long as she was faithful
to orthodoxy, as long as she maintained the union of the Priesthood
with the government, as long as she proved herself, not in word, but in
act, the Eldest Daughter of the Church.”
His predecessor, of pious memory, wrote to St Louis IX, King and Confessor,"God
chooses France in preference to all the nations of the earth for the
protection of the Catholic Faith, for this reason France is the Kingdom
of God itself. Enemies of France are the enemies of Christ ... The tribe
of Judah is the anticipated figure of the Kingdom of France ... The
Redeemer has chosen the blessed Kingdom of France as the special
executor of his divine wills.
A prayer for God's light to always lead France:
Almighty and eternal God, Who established the empire of the Franks to be in the world the instrument of Thy divine will, the sword and the shield of Thy Holy Church, We beg Thee, show always and everywhere by Thy heavenly light, the pleading sons of the Franks, that they may see what must be done to realise Thy reign in this world, and that to accomplish what they have seen, they will be filled with charity, strength and perseverance.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
The Sacre Coeur a symbol of the Good God, the Fleur-de-Lys, a symbol of the French monarchy,
Let us pray for the defeat of the Revolution in its homeland as the beginning of its defeat worldwide, and for the instauration of the Social Reign of the Sacred Heart of Christ the King and of the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Queen, in France and throughout the world!
Vive
le Très haut, très puissant et très excellent Prince, Louis XX, Par la
grâce de Dieu, Roi de France et de Navarre, Roi Très-chrétien!
Vive le Christ-roi! Vive la Vierge Marie-reine!

Comments are subject to deletion if they are not germane. I have no problem with a bit of colourful language, but blasphemy or depraved profanity will not be allowed. Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
