Archbishop Viganò Backs SSPX as Vatican Issues Excommunication Decree

Archbishop Viganò has publicly supported the SSPX following Rome's excommunication decree against its bishops, declaring Pope Leo XIV himself to be in 'schism' and framing the conflict as a battle between authentic Catholic Tradition and a 'conciliar-synodal church' distinct from the historic Roman Catholic Church. This deepening fracture within the world's largest Christian institution signals the kind of end-times religious confusion and institutional apostasy that Scripture warns will precede Christ's return. The Bible explicitly warns of a great falling away within the church in the last days, with false teachings and internal division marking the season of Christ's return.
