False Prophet, ‘Little Beast’, who lies like the Dragon:  Pope Francis invites us, with a lie, to “look upwards” because, thanks to Mary’s (false) assumption (Not Christ’s resurrection and assumption from the dead): “Heaven is open” and we need no longer be afraid. False hope in a false, pagan idol. Head wolf in shepherds clothing has become ‘corrupted.’ Deuteronomy 4:16. ‘Heaven is NOT open to those who believe in or worship false idols, regardless of their man-made religion.’ 10 (5+5) satanic, pagan lies that the False Prophet compels among those who are deceived. Count them!

In St Luke’s Gospel on this Solemnity of the Assumption, the Evangelist records the words of Our Lady as she prays: “My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour”. Before reciting the Angelus, Pope Francis reflected on the two verbs in that prayer: to rejoice and to magnify.

To rejoice

“We rejoice when something so beautiful happens that it is not enough to rejoice inside, in the soul, but we want to express happiness with the whole body”, said the Pope. “Mary rejoices because of God… she teaches us to rejoice in God, because He does “great things”.

To magnify

“To magnify means to exalt a reality for its greatness, for its beauty”, continued Pope Francis. “Mary proclaims the greatness of the Lord… she shows us that if we want our life to be happy, God must be placed first, because He alone is great”. The Pope warned of getting lost in the pettiness of life, chasing after things of little importance: “prejudices, grudges, rivalries, envy, and superfluous material goods”. Mary, on the other hand, invites us to “look upward at the ‘great things’ the Lord has accomplished in her”. (Night Watchman note 1: God accomplished great things in Jesus Christ, not ‘Mary.)

The Gate to Heaven

“Mary, who is a human creature, one of us, reaches eternity in body and soul”, said Pope Francis. This is why we invoke her as the “Gate of Heaven”. (Note 2: Christ holds the keys to heaven and hell, Revelation 1:18, not Mary). “There she awaits us, just as a mother waits for her children to come home”. (Note 3: Christ waits for us to come home at the harpazo/rapture, in the ‘twinkling of an eye,’ not Mary). The Pope said we are like pilgrims on our way home to Heaven. Seeing that “in paradise, together with Christ, the New Adam, there is also her, Mary, the new Eve, gives us comfort and hope in our pilgrimage down here”. (Note 4: Christ offers hope and the Holy Spirit provides comfort in our pilgrimage down here,’ not Mary).

Heaven is open

For those who are afflicted with doubts and sadness, “and live with their eyes turned downwards”, the Feast of the Assumption is a call to “look upwards” and see that “Heaven is open”, continued Pope Francis. It is no longer distant, and we need no longer be afraid: “because on the threshold of Heaven there is a Mother waiting for us” (Note 5: Christ waits for us, we are his bride. Christ is the head of the true Church. We are not Mary’s groom, nor are we the body of Mary). Mary constantly reminds us that we are precious in the eyes of God (Note 6: Christ tells us we are precious in his eyes, which is why he died for our sins, Mary did not die for our sins), and that we are made for the great joys of Heaven (Note 7: Only Christ provides the great joy of eternal life in heaven, Mary does not). “Every time we take the Rosary in our hands and pray to her” (Note 8: We should pray to Christ with our mouth, heart, mind and spirit, in thought, word and deed; not to Mary with pieces of wood), he said, “we take a step forward towards our life’s great goal”.

The greatness of Heaven

“Let us be attracted by true beauty”, said the Pope, “let us not be drawn in by the petty things in life, but let us choose the greatness of Heaven” (Note 9: God chooses us for the greatness of heaven through our acceptance of Christ; We do not get to ‘choose’ heaven apart from Christ, through Mary). Pope Francis concluded by praying that the Blessed Virgin Mary, Gate of Heaven, may help us daily to fix our gaze with confidence and joy (Note 10: Psalm 25:15, our eyes or focus should be on the Lord, not Mary), “on the place where our true home lies”.
