The Blessed Mother, Akita, Japan, prophesied that because of apostasy in the Church, we would have cardinals opposing cardinals and bishops against bishops. This is happening right now. The Church is already fractured, with the progressives splitting from the traditionalists. My feeling is that the Church must hold onto her original traditions and teachings, and never modify or try to "modernize" them one iota to "please" the world. Only the devil would do that. Also, since all the problems of the world are caused by people abandoning God, the Church should focus solely upon letting the Lord make all her members holy!
I also lament the fact that today no one preaches like Jesus did anymore. The Lord always went straight to the truth, was consistent, and never tried to please his listeners. He spoke succinctly, using no big words and talking at a level people could understand.
Finally, I believe in Jesus' promise to Peter that the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against his church, and what Mary has revealed to us—that her Immaculate Heart will triumph in the end. The day will come when the Lord God will set things right.
