#Russia has still not been validly consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, since no pope has ever met all the conditions specified by Our Lady herself (see below): fatima.org/about/consecra…
.@BishopAthanas1 concurs in "Christus Vincit" (@AngelicoPress, 2019): "It has not yet been made in the manner Our Lady requested. In my opinion, the consecration has to be made more perfectly, and this means with the explicit mention of Russia..." (p. 300) angelicopress.org/christus-vinci…
"The current events have nothing to do with a desire to infringe on the interests of #Ukraine and the #Ukrainian people. They are connected with the defending #Russia from those who have taken Ukraine hostage...." — #VladimirPutin, Feb. 24, 2022
As shown above, Putin signed a "Treaty of Good-Neighborliness and Friendly Cooperation" with Communist #China (July 16, 2001), "with the hope of promoting and establishing a just and fair NEW WORLD ORDER...." voltairenet.org/article173177.…
Moreover, just 20 days ago Putin and #XiJinping renewed their nations' strong ties via a lengthy joint statement, the essence of which is 'Eurasia vs. the West': washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…

BREAKING: @Pontifex has declared St. Irenaeus of Lyons (d. ca. 202 A.D.), a very important early Church Father, a Doctor of the Church "with the title of Doctor unitatis ['Doctor of unity']." press.vatican.va/content/salast…
St. Irenaeus' five-volume work "Adversus haereses" ("Against Heresies") is one of the most important Patristic texts of the 2nd century A.D. — a text which thoroughly proves the Catholicity and Apostolicity of the early Church. Here is a sample: newadvent.org/fathers/010330…
As others have pointed out, @ThomasJTobin1, "Recognize and Resist" has been around for decades and is based on St. Paul's example (Gal. 2:11) plus such texts as the following from St. Robert Bellarmine:

3/4 "and by blocking him, lest he should carry out his will; still, it is not lawful to judge or punish or even depose him [the Pope], because he is nothing other than a superior." — St. Robert Bellarmine, On the Roman Pontiff, Book II, Ch. 29 mediatrixpress.com/product/on-the…
