Smoke Signals: The last true Pope.

'The White Conclave Smoke of Oct. 26, 1958'

A historical perspective: Sedevacantism

…In addition to the white smoke, the bells of St. Peter’s began ringing to confirm the successful papal election, and the Swiss Guards hurried to their assigned positions to prepare the welcome of the new Pope. The crowds gathered in the piazza of St. Peter’s cheered. Vatican Radio announced confidently: “There can be absolutely no doubt. A Pope has been elected.”

The trouble was only that no Pope ever appeared. After five minutes, the smoke started to turn gray, and confusion ensued. After about half an hour, the crowd dispersed, and Vatican Radio had to announce that apparently there had been a mistake made.

All this was reported by the Associated Press and in various newspapers across the globe the following day, Oct. 27. Then, on Oct. 28, the conclave again produced white smoke, and this time Cardinal Roncalli appeared as “Pope John XXIII”.

Normally, smoke issues and such in a conclave would not concer us much — this had happened before, after all, and by itself it doesn’t have to mean anything. However, keep in mind that this conclave — that of 1958 — is the one that changed everything for Catholics. It was, so to speak, the official beginning of the Novus Ordo Church, for it was John XXIII that began to turn things topsy-turvy and called the Second Vatican Council out of the blue, demanding that it begin even without sufficient preparation.

Knowing about and understanding the facts surrounding the 1958 conclave helps give people hope, for it provides an explanation for how the Catholic Church could be eclipsed by the Novus Ordo Sect — it would allow for the papacy to be apparently overcome without being actually overcome. This is why we keep saying that the only way to credibly maintain that the gates of hell have not prevailed against the Catholic Church — which is an infallible dogma and guaranteed by Christ Himself — is to say that Francis is not a valid Pope and the institution in Rome is not the Catholic Church anymore:

The whole subject is by no means frivolous, silly, or unworthy of further investigation. Keep in mind that for many decades true Popes had warned us about Freemasonic infiltration into the Church, Popes Pius IX and Leo XIII ordered the publication of the leaked plans of the Alta Vendita Lodge detailing how the infiltration was going to be accomplished, and the Apocalypse in Holy Scripture itself prophesies a hindered papal election. Furthermore, the former Vatican Noble Guard Franco Bellegrandi revealed in an explosive book in 1994 that Roncalli’s election had been determined and planned beforehand — Roncalli was to be the Masons’ choice to “consecrate ecumenism”, make Montini a “cardinal”, and put in motion the theological revolution seen at Vatican II.
