Media Release

Udupi, May 10: “Covid-19 pandemic which has been ravaging our world since a year, is now in devastating proportion. Thousands of innocent lives are lost and lakhs of people succumb to this fatal disease everyday in our country. We must be strong in spirit during these testing times. We need to fight bravely in order to safeguard ourselves and our people,” said bishop of Udupi diocese Dr Gerald Isaac Lobo.

In a statement, the bishop stated, “Scientists, experts, medical fraternity and other specialists have experimented exhaustively regarding the nature of Corona Virus and have suggested a series of measures to our national, state and local administrations. It is our bounden duty to follow the guidelines set down by the administration without paying heed to any gossip, fake news and wrong information.

“The scientists and experts who have developed a Vaccine for the pandemic in record time are worthy of praise. As these vaccines are now available for the public, all must take this vaccine for themselves as early as possible. No religious or social misunderstandings must deter us from taking the vaccine.

“Udupi district administration has declared a stringent Lockdown all over the district from 10-24 May. In order to break the chain of infection, it is very important for everyone to remain inside one’s home during the lockdown. This is not going to be easy, yet in order to keep ourselves unaffected by the contagion and also help others we need to follow this very strictly.

“Last year, Udupi diocese went out of the way to help the Covid affected, labourers, migrants, elderly and other needy people during the lockdown. The diocese along with its 52 parishes is ever ready to do the same during these testing times. The parishes with the help of Catholic Sabha, Youth Movement and other Associations would do everything to alleviate the pain and suffering of our needy people.

“Let us try our best to overcome this pandemic. God who has created us is our protector too. Let us pray to him for ourselves and for one another. May the merciful Lord protect and care for us,” he stated.

    Bible warns even God's chosen people or elect or clergy can be deceived in Matthew 24:24. Recent Divine message warns similarly on communist virus agenda. Jesus on communists' Great Reset, goals of one world people through virus and vaccines in a message to Prophet John Leary dated Wednesday, April 28, 2021: (St. Louis de Montfort) ... Jesus said: “My people, I have told you before that the one world people always announce their plans before they carry them out. You have been reading a lot about the ‘Great Reset’ that will basically try to form communist cells in every country. This is a preparation to hand over the world to the Antichrist for the Great Tribulation to begin. Another goal of the one world people is to be able to control all of the money of the world through some electronic means. Their third goal is to reduce the world’s population down to 500 million people. They are using the Covid virus and the many virus vaccines to ruin your immune system by changing your DNA. They will announce a new pandemic virus that will kill the vaccinated people. Refuse to take any virus vaccine. This is why you need to make more Good Friday oil on April 30th at 3:00 a.m. praying the 33 Apostles Creed and 7 Hail Holy Queen prayers as you use wicks and flames in the oil. If you bless the vaccinated people on the forehead with this Good Friday oil, these people could be healed of any virus, if they believe that I can heal them with My healing power. I will bring My Warning before the next deadly virus gets released. The Warning will give all sinners one last chance to convert their lives of sin and be saved from hell...

    This is an eye opener article by Mike Adams at cairnsnews.org on how globalists using viruses, vaccine generated strains, to decimate much population, following few excerpts, for more refer link, ... "The end goal, as globalists like Bill Gates openly support, is the elimination of billions of human beings living today. Ideally, globalists seek to reduce the world population to about 500 million people, which is roughly a 94% reduction in the current human population."... Thus, people won’t be dropping dead right away after taking the vaccines. Instead, they will seem fine until the next major bioweapon pandemic hits them, at which point the fatality rate will be extremely high (perhaps as high as 75% averaged across all age groups). The next strain to be released via the vaccines will be COVID-21, and the COVID-21 strain could be rightly considered the second half of a binary weapon system that will achieve extremely high kill rates for human beings across the globe...

    Hi John with all my respect to you and your previous writings, this piece of comment may take them away completely. Our highly educated religious leaders go by the doctrines of Christ /Church in the interest of not only our community but also our society at large; supporting and standing by the government in its every endeavors to fight and claim victory against the C-19, pandemic battle. One need to heed by it rather than going aloof to 'Reset' yourself at the cost of misinterpreting Christ's teachings.

    Anthony, Religious heads are highly educated in Theology, Correct! but vaccine and technology depend upon greedy Global Elites and Big Pharma. These elites / Pharma are the main financial sponsorers of many in medical fraternity (for their products), even in case these Religious heads / Governments depend on medical fraternity. These things are written in the Bible, Revelation 6:8, 13:16-18, 16:2 and Matthew 24:21,22.

    In simple terms.... Jesus on doctors oath, drug companies (Big Pharma), western liberal and communist leaders plan in a message to John Leary dated Friday, April 9, 2021... Jesus said: “My people, you are familiar with how Moses held up the bronze serpent on a pole to heal the Hebrews from their snake bites. This caduceus is a symbol of the oath that doctors take so they promise to make patients well instead of killing them. You have the FDA to approve drugs for use on your citizens. It is sad that drug companies are making drugs and shots that they take no liability for what effects their drugs have on people. The Covid vaccines are dangerous because many people are getting sick and some people are dying who were vaccinated. But this information is not given to the public. With so many bad reactions, these vaccines should be taken off the market, and not forced on people. These vaccines are ruining people’s immune systems, and when the next deadly virus comes, many people will die without a good immune system to fight this virus. The worst of this problem is that the virus and vaccines are all part of a pre-planned effort to kill millions of people to reduce the population. Your leaders are behind this plot, and they are lying to the public about the need for vaccines, let alone making vaccine passports a means to steal your freedoms. In the end these evil people will be killed and sent to hell...
