At last, one of the final pieces to the mystery of what Pope Benedict XVI did on Feb. 11, 2013 A. D., has come to light: the reason why Pope John Paul II may have enabled in the Canon Law reform of 1983, with Cardinal Ratzinger’s counsel, the ability for a Pope to fake a renunciation, so as to thwart a take over of the Vatican by the forces off ecclesiastical Freemasonry.
Prior to 1983, the Code of Canon Law reformed under Popes St. Pius X and Benedict XV stated that a pope abdicated when he renounced.
But in the Code of 1983, John Paul II changed that to allow a fake abdication. For in Canon 322 §2, for a pope to abdicate he had to renounce his munus, the charge Christ gave him when he accepted his canonical election.
If a Pope, pressured by anyone, renounced ANYTHING ELSE the renunciation would be invalid!
But why John Paul II would have done this has remained unexplained specifically until now. With the help of an investigator in the U. S. A. we have discovered a substantial explanation, which seems very probative.
In 1981, for 22 weeks, there was listed on the New York Times Best Seller list a book which spoke of a forced abdication of a pope by a plot of Cardinals.
That book was entitled, “The Clowns of God”, and its author, Morris West, a novelist, was the author of the famous novel about a future pope, entitled, “The Shoes of the Fishermen”.
EXPLOSIVELY ACCURATE PREDICTION OF EVENTS
Here is the cover of the paper back edition of the “Clowns of God”:
And here is the Prologue to the Book:
STUNNING DETAILS
There are stunning details in this account which mirror the historical events of Pope Benedict XVI.
The first of which is the name of the reigning pontiff, one which breaks with the names of the Vatican II popes and takes a name of a pope of tradition.
Second, that the pope in the novel is FORCED TO ABDICATE BY THE CARDINALS.
Third, that this would happen in the 7th year of his pontificate. Benedict XVI issued his Declaratio in the final months of his 7th year.
That the pope in the novel is driven to a Monastery. Pope Benedict XVI now lives in the Monastery of the Mother of God, at the heart of the Vatican.
That the pope who is driven out of power takes a vow of obedience to a religious of an ancient order. In the case of Pope Benedict XVI he seems to be obeying a member of the Society of Jesus, founded 500 years ago.
John Paul II had motive
The popularity of this book in 1981 would have sent shock waves in the Vatican, which was in that year preparing the new Code of Canon Law. It seems highly probably then, that in response to the suggestion of a forced abdication, learned and widely read counselors of John Paul II might have advised him to add an object to the verb “renounce” in Canon 332 §2, so that in the future, if a pope would be constrained to abdicate, he could fake an abdication by renouncing something which seemed to be the same as munus but was not, just as Pope Benedict XVI did do on Feb. 13, 2013, when he renounced “the ministry entrusted to me through the hands of the Cardinals”.
That Pope John Paul II even in 1996, years after the new code was promulgated in 1983, still had in mind an attempt to force a papal resignation, can be seen from n. 3 of his Papal Law on Papal Elections, Universi dominici gregis:
3. I further establish that the College of Cardinals may make no dispositions whatsoever concerning the rights of the Apostolic See and of the Roman Church, much less allow any of these rights to lapse, either directly or indirectly, even though it be to resolve disputes or to prosecute actions perpetrated against these same rights after the death or valid resignation of the Pope. All the Cardinals are obliged to defend these rights.
Why mention in this paragraph, a “valid resignation”, if he did not fear a forced abdication and a tumultuous alteration of Church governance by a usurper? Just as has happened under Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who pretends to be Pope Francis.
This Book Speaks prophetically about Pope Benedict XVI!
What is perhaps more stunning, still, is that the narrative of this book fits in perfectly with what Pope Benedict XVI had been warning the world about during his pontificate, the triumph of relativism, which marks the coming of the Antichrist and the end of the world, a trial which would require the Church of Christ to separate from the Church of the Antichrist:
What would happen if members of the Roman Curia discovered that the Pope was about to publicly state that he had received a private revelation that the world was about to end – an apocalypse coming at any moment? Is he a madman, as his cardinals suspect, a mystic, or a fanatic grasping for an unholy power?

Very interesting, who was this author? Someone in on the freemasonic plot maybe?
When one recalls that West’s ’61 novel foretold a Slavic pope named “Kyril,” whose intimacy towards Jews was such as to commend them at death without baptism, but with Jewish prayers — this, some 17 years BEFORE Karol Wojtyla’s ascension — one can but ask oneself whether the novelist indeed be possessed of mystical insight, or privy to mechanations, the truth of which would cause even a very devout soul to shudder.
POI: Benedict’s declaration was given in the 8th year of his pontificate, not the seventh.
They could be Masons launching trail baloons to test the psychological reactions, yes. But since Benedict was elected in April of 2005, Feb. 2013 was the end of the 7th year of his pontificate.
He was nearing the end of the eighth year of his pontificate. I agree with all of the analysis here. Pope John Paul II was quite evidently trying to discourage future Popes from abdicating, by making voluntariness an absolute condition for the validity of any instrument of abdication. He also modeled it in his own life, persisting through debilitating illness, and, perhaps, attempts to force his own abdication.
2005 elected in April
2006 1st year if pontificate concluded in April
2007 2nd
2008 3rd
2009 4th
2010 5th
2011 6th
2012 7th
Feb 11 2013 is in 7 th year 9th month of his pontificate
The first year began with his election; the 1st anniversary inaugurated the 2nd, etc.
If we go by the 1983 Code of Canon Law, it is overwhelmingly obvious that Pope Benedict did not resign validly. What gets me is how so many Catholics still think that Francis is the pope. Surely, it is mortal sin that continues to darken the intellect of so many inside the Church.
Windswept House tells a similar story line.

This is absolutely fascinating. Could you address the arguments of Mark Mallet who believes that Pope Francis is the valid Pope, and backs it up with words from Pope Benedict himself?

If Mallet were a police officer, no investigation would ever result in even an arrest. It is obvious from the way he argues. What more do I need to say?
I dare not to offer my much less informed opinion but I find the whole topic (scandal) you might call it, very informative. I do personally believe that Benedict XVI was forced out to enable the anti church to take power. These are biblical times. I hear a lot about the reawakening of the masses to rise up against the globalist but that doesn’t fit in with the warnings given to the people by Our Blessed Mother. Some religions may think that this great awakening will take place but as a traditional catholic, I’m preparing for the chastisement of mankind.
We all know about the antichrist, that supposed to be born. Not all of us know, that it is already born, it’s name is “millions”. It’s taking over this world, embrace faithful in Jesus, tough times ahead. God bless you all.
we will see when Benedict dies where this will be and where this will lead to the next step. Death bed confession on either side?
