Archbishop Declares Vatican Excommunications of SSPX Invalid, Cites Apostasy

Archbishop Jan Pawel Lenga has condemned the Vatican's excommunication of Society of St. Pius X bishops and clergy following their unauthorized consecration of four new bishops, declaring the decrees void before God and calling the current Vatican hierarchy apostate wolves leading souls to damnation. This public fracture within Catholicism signals a deepening crisis of spiritual authority in one of the world's largest Christian institutions — a hallmark warning sign of the great falling away Scripture foretells in the last days. Paul's warning in 2 Thessalonians 2:3 speaks directly to a great apostasy that must precede the end, and Christ's own words in Matthew 24:11 warn that many false prophets will arise and lead many astray.
