St. Bernard's "Vengeance" on Satan and an Imperfect Council in Our Time

In the St. Bernard of Clairvaux journey which would end the antipapacy of antipope Anacletus (with "truth and reason") according to a story from tradition Satan attempted to block this journey by breaking down the transportation of Bernard:

"The devil we are told, had a particular objection to this journey. He foresaw and hated what was to come of it. Therefore,... the demon broke the wheel of the carriage in which the Abbot travelled... The saint... took vengeance on his enemy... he ordered Satan himself to become a wheel, and replace the broken one. The fallen angel obeyed the words of the holy man...and... carried Bernard to his destination."
(The Life and Time of Saint Bernard by James Cotter Morison, M.A., Page 210 tells the traditional story and page 212 speaks of how Bernard ended the antipapacy with "truth and reason")

Might Satan in our time be attempting to block the saintly cardinal or bishop who needs to come forward to call an imperfect council to judge with "truth and reason" the papacy of Francis as he attempted to block St. Bernard from ending the antipapacy of the antipope Anacletus?

Pray an Our Father and the St. Michael the Archangel prayer now for Jesus Christ by His Precious Blood to send the saintly cardinal or bishop the grace to overcome any satanic attempted blockage of his coming forward to call the imperfect council to judge the papacy of Francis.

So true Fred! As Peter 5:8 says be alert and sober-minded. Satan and his helpers are definetely roaming this world as a roaring lion, seeking whom they may devour. Just take a look at the left wing agenda, but as Padre Pio said our greatest weapon is the rosary."Pray, hope and don't worry." Our victory is in Jesus! The gates of hell shall not prevail against the church (Matthew 16:18).keep up the good work of spreading the truth.You are a man of courage in these dire times! Yes, we need more men of courage; to not be afraid to stand up and not be afraid.

5 Dubia Questions for 1P5's Steve Skojec & All faithful Catholics especially Francis is definitely Pope Cardinals, Bishops & pundits

Here are five really short and easy to answer dubia questions which hopefully aren't too complicated for Steve Skojec, publisher of the One Peter Five website, to answer. To make it really easy for the publisher of One Peter Five it has been formatted so that he only has to answer: yes or no. 1. Doctor of the Church St. Francis de Sales said "The Pope... when he is explicitly a heretic... the Church must either deprive him or as some say declare him deprived of his Apostolic See." Was St. Francis de Sales a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 2. "Universal Acceptance" theologian John of St. Thomas said "This man in particular lawfully elected and accepted by the Church is the supreme pontiff." Was John of St. Thomas for saying "the supreme pontiff" must be BOTH "lawfully elected and accepted by the Church" a Sedevacantist or a Benevacantist? Answer: yes or no. 3. Do you think that a "supreme pontiff...

Has the Trad Media fallen into a COVID-like mass formation with "the Uncola or 'UnFrancis'" Leo XVI? While it's humorous to see the former anti-Francis Trad pundits suddenly acting like teen age girls infatuated with Leo, it could lead to a Trojan Horse effect
