POPE MISLED ON CLIMATE SCIENCE

In his recent encyclical, Laudato Si, Pope Francis supports the hypothesis that the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) to power the modern world is causing a climate crisis. But climate science does not support this hypothesis, and the powers that be have been lying about the causes and consequences of climate change for decades.

 
“Over the past 18 years, the best measurements of Earth’s global temperatures (by NOAA and NASA satellites) show no warming whatsoever. The total warming since 1979 has been a fraction of that predicted by the IPCC, and of that tiny warming, most can be attributed to natural causes, such as volcanoes. That leaves room for, at most one-tenth or two-tenths of a degree due to carbon dioxide (CO2), which projects to half a degree or less of warming by 2100. Half a degree is not noticeable by any human and can have no serious consequences. This mere half a degree is not a prediction from supercomputers, but a simple observation based on the best global data, and it shows that catastrophic, or even harmful, global warming is not a reality.
In short, over the past two centuries humans have, through productive and beneficial endeavors, added one molecule of CO2 to each ten thousand molecules of air. The feared and forecast dire consequences of that molecule are not coming to pass. Attempts at curtailing those human endeavors to remove that molecule would be flawed policies that will fail to solve a non-existent problem.” _ Richard Keen, Meteorology Professor (emeritus), University of Colorado-Boulder

The Real Threat to Earth's Climate System is
"Geoengineering" and "Weather Warfare." 


 
“Pope Francis’s goal of preserving God’s earthly kingdom for future generations is shared by every ‘skeptic’ of man-caused global warming. But he will not preserve it by putting his moral authority behind a UN agenda (https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/post2015/transformingourworld) that considers it a sin for the poor to use affordable, ever-cleaner fossil fuels to power their lives. More than a billion of the poorest people in the world would remain in abject poverty for generations if they are to rely on windmills, solar panels, and other unreliable and expensive sources of energy.” _ James Lakely, The Heartland Institute

“The world’s poor will suffer horribly if reliable energy -- the engine of prosperity and a better life -- is made more expensive and less reliable by the decree of global planners.” _ Joseph Bas, President, The Heartland Institute -- the world’s most prominent think tank promoting skepticism about man-made climate change.

~ * * * ~

Embedded in the UN's "2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development" are radical population control policies for the entire planet (especially for the developing world). It is population control through universal access to reproductive health-care services (that is, contraception, abortion, involuntary/forced sterilization) and coercive family planning. By aligning with the UN's "2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development," Pope Francis inadvertently empowers those with an "anti-human" agenda. [The UN has a history of "anti-human" practices. (See below)]

~ * * * ~

Pope Francis has been validly elected, and is anointed with the "charism of infallibility" when it comes to matters of "faith and morals" in official promulgations. This does not include his "scientific" opinion about the causes of climate change!

"The Roman Pontiff, head of the college of bishops, enjoys this infallibility in virtue of his office, when, as supreme pastor and teacher of all the faithful -- who confirms his brethren in the faith he proclaims by a definitive act a doctrine pertaining to faith or morals..." _ Catechism of the Catholic Church, #891

MARY, UNDOER OF KNOTS: NOVENA MEDITATIONS

 
"Eve, by her disobedience, tied the knot of disgrace for the human race; whereas Mary, by her obedience, undid it." _ Saint Irenaeus

Q: What "knots" can Mary undo/untie?
A: Problems and struggles we face for which we do not see any solution.

The Blessed Virgin Mary comes to provide jobs, good health, to reconcile families... because she wants to undo the knots of our sins which dominate our lives, so that -- as sons and daughters of the King -- we can receive the promises reserved for us from eternity. Mary comes with promises of victory, peace, blessings and reconciliation.

THE NOVENA

Each Day

1. Make the Sign of the Cross.
2. Make an Act of Contrition:
Oh my God I am heartily sorry for having offended You. I detest all my sins because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of Hell. But most of all, because I offended You, oh my God, Who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.
3. Pray the first 3 decades of the Rosary, with mysteries for the day.
4. Make the Meditation of the day.
5. Pray the last 2 decades of the Rosary, with mysteries for the day.
6. Finish with the Prayer to Mary, Undoer of Knots.

Meditation for Day 1

Dearest Holy Mother, Most Holy Mary, you undo the knots that suffocate your children. Extend your merciful hands to me. I entrust to you today this knot [Mention your request here] and all the negative consequences that it provokes in my life. I give you this knot that torments me and makes me unhappy and so impedes me from uniting myself to you and your Son Jesus, my Savior. I run to you, Mary, Undoer of Knots, because I trust you and I know that you never despise a sinning child who comes to ask you for help. I believe that you can undo this knot because Jesus grants you everything. I believe that you want to undo this knot because you are my Mother. I believe that you will do this because you love me with eternal love. Thank you, Dear Mother.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Prayer to Mary, Undoer of Knots

Virgin Mary, Mother of fair love, Mother who never refuses to come to the aid of a child in need, Mother whose hands never cease to serve your beloved children because they are moved by the divine love and immense mercy that exists in your heart, cast your compassionate eyes upon me and see the snarl of knots that exist in my life. You know very well how desperate I am, my pain, and how I am bound by these knots.
Mary, Mother to whom God entrusted the undoing of the knots in the lives of his children, I entrust into your hands the ribbon of my life. No one, not even the Evil One himself, can take it away from your precious care. In your hands there is no knot that cannot be undone.
Powerful Mother, by your grace and intercessory power with your Son and my Liberator, Jesus, take into your hands today this knot. [Mention your request here] I beg you to undo it for the glory of God, once for all. You are my hope.
O my Lady, you are the only consolation God gives me, the fortification of my feeble strength, the enrichment of my destitution, and, with Christ, the freedom from my chains. Hear my plea. Keep me, guide me, protect me, O safe refuge!
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 2

Mary, Beloved Mother, channel of all grace, I return to you today my heart, recognizing that I am a sinner in need of your help. Many times I lose the graces you grant me because of my sins of egoism, pride, rancor and my lack of generosity and humility. I turn to you today, Mary, Undoer of Knots, for you to ask your Son Jesus to grant me a pure, divested, humble and trusting heart. I will live today practicing these virtues and offering you this as a sign of my love for you. I entrust into your hands this knot [Mention your request here] which keeps me from reflecting the glory of God.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 3

Meditating Mother, Queen of heaven, in whose hands the treasures of the King are found, turn your merciful eyes upon me today. I entrust into your holy hands this knot in my life [Mention your request here] and all the rancor and resentment it has caused in me.
I ask Your forgiveness, God the Father, for my sin. Help me now to forgive all the persons who consciously or unconsciously provoked this knot. Give me, also, the grace to forgive me for having provoked this knot. Only in this way can You undo it.
Before you, dearest Mother, and in the Name of your Son Jesus, my Savior, Who has suffered so many offenses, having been granted forgiveness, I now forgive these persons [Mention their names here] and myself, forever. Thank you, Mary, Undoer of Knots for undoing the knot of rancor in my heart and the knot which I now present to you. Amen.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

[Suggestion: You may want to pause, close your eyes, and ask Jesus who you need to forgive. Names and faces will come to your mind. These are the names you should mention.]

Meditation for Day 4

Dearest Holy Mother, you are generous with all who seek you, have mercy on me. I entrust into your hands this knot which robs the peace of my heart, paralyzes my soul and keeps me from going to my Lord and serving Him with my life. Undo this knot in my love [Mention your request here], O Mother, and ask Jesus to heal my paralytic faith, which gets downhearted with the stones on the road. Along with you, dearest Mother, may I see these stones as friends. Not murmuring against them anymore but giving endless thanks for them, may I smile trustingly in your power.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 5

Mother, Undoer of Knots, generous and compassionate, I come to you today to once again entrust this knot [Mention your request here] in my life to you and to ask the divine wisdom to undo, under the light of the Holy Spirit, this snarl of problems. No one ever saw you angry; to the contrary, your words were so charged with sweetness that the Holy Spirit was manifested on your lips. Take away from me the bitterness, anger, and hatred which this knot has caused me. Give me, O dearest Mother, some of the sweetness and wisdom that is all silently reflected in your heart. And just as you were present at Pentecost, ask Jesus to send me a new presence of the Holy Spirit at this moment in my life. Holy Spirit, come upon me!
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 6

Queen of Mercy, I entrust to you this knot in my life [Mention your request here] and I ask you to give me a heart that is patient until you undo it. Teach me to persevere in the living Word of Jesus, in the Eucharist, the Sacrament of Confession; stay with me and prepare my heart to celebrate with the angels the grace that will be granted to me. Amen. Alleluia!
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 7

Mother Most Pure, I come to you today to beg you to undo this knot in my life [Mention your request here] and free me from the snares of evil. God has granted you great power over all the demons. I renounce all of them today, every connection I have had with them, and I proclaim Jesus as my one and only Lord and Savior. Mary, Undoer of Knots, crush the Evil One’s head and destroy the traps he has set for me by this knot. Thank you, dearest Mother. Most Precious Blood of Jesus, free me!
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 8

Virgin Mother of God, overflowing with mercy, have mercy on your child and undo this knot [Mention your request here] in my life. I need your visit to my life, like you visited Elizabeth. Bring me Jesus, bring me the Holy Spirit. Teach me to practice the virtues of courage, joyfulness, humility, and faith, and, like Elizabeth, to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Make me joyfully rest on your bosom, Mary. I consecrate you as my Mother, Queen, and friend. I give you my heart and everything I have -- my home and family, my material and spiritual goods. I am yours forever. Put your heart in me so that I can do everything Jesus tells me.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.

Meditation for Day 9

Most Holy Mary, our Advocate, Undoer of Knots, I come today to thank you for undoing this knot in my life. You know very well the suffering it has caused me. Thank you for coming, Mother, with your long fingers of mercy to dry the tears in my eyes; you receive me in your arms and make it possible for me to receive once again the divine grace. Mary, Undoer of Knots, dearest Mother, I thank you for undoing the knots in my life. Wrap me in your mantle of love, keep me under your protection, enlighten me with your peace. Amen.
Mary, Undoer of Knots, pray for me.


[Suggestion: You may want to ask Mary to undo/untie the "knot of unbelief" in a loved one. I have found the Meditations and the Prayer to Mary, Undoer of Knots to be easily adaptable for this intention.] 

Eve's disobedience was untied by Mary's obedience: what the virgin Eve bound through her disbelief, Mary loosened by her faith." Comparing her with Eve, they (Early Church Fathers) call Mary "the Mother of the living" and frequently claim: "Death through Eve, life through Mary." CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, #494

NECESSITY OF BAPTISM

Trinitarian Baptism

Jesus answered (Nicodemus), "Amen, amen, I say to you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit." (John 3:5)

"For every Christian, before his Baptism, was the slave of the Devil, seeing that he belonged to him." _ Saint Louis de Montfort

Fort Wayne, IN (April 2015)

Several months ago, I traveled to a Protestant home in Indiana where there was some mild poltergeist activity, and a 3-year-old boy being attacked in his sleep every night. While I was there, I witnessed this spiritual attack.

At one-o'clock in the morning, the boy suddenly woke up screaming. When I entered his bedroom he was standing in his crib, crying out for his mother. He did not react to my sudden appearance in his room. I sprayed the entire room with holy water. Suddenly, the boy collapsed in the crib and fell fast asleep.

The next morning I chose not to use the House Cleansing Prayer. I thought it might be "too Catholic" for this Protestant family. Instead, I sprayed holy water in every room, closet and hallway. This successfully cleared the home. Then I instructed the parents to do the same, should the need arise in the future.

The 3-year-old boy had not been baptized. The parents attend a Pentecostal church that does not believe in baptizing children. And when they do baptize they use the Unitarian formula, considered to be invalid by the Catholic Church.

[In the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA), the Pentecostal Churches are listed among the churches with an "invalid" baptism because they use the Unitarian baptismal formula ("I baptize you in the name of Jesus") rather than the Trinitarian baptismal formula ("I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit").]

I explained that children also have need of baptism to be freed from the powers of darkness. I explained that their son has no protection -- that without baptism, he remains vulnerable to the demonic attacks.

~ * * * ~

In case of necessity, anyone, even a non-baptized person, with the required intention, can baptize, by using the Trinitarian baptismal formula. The intention required is to will to do what the Church does when she baptizes. The Church finds the reason for this possibility in the universal saving will of God and the necessity of Baptism for salvation. (Catechism of the Catholic Church #1256)

In case of necessity, any person can baptize provided that he have the intention of doing that which the Church does and provided that he pours water on the candidate's head while saying: "I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit." (Catechism of the Catholic Church #1284)

~ * * * ~

The family and I traveled to the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Fort Wayne for holy water. (Before contacting me, the boy's father had come here for help.) I was surprised to find such a large "baptismal font" in the cathedral.

Baptismal Font - Cathedral, Fort Wayne, IN

As we were filling the spray bottle with holy water from the baptismal font, I was faced with a dilemma: Could this 3-year-old boy being attacked in his sleep every night by a demon wait until he becomes a teenager to receive an invalid baptism?

I asked the mother if she would like me to baptize her son. She said, "Yes." So, I baptized the boy using the Trinitarian baptismal formula.

The boy is now a child of God, a new creation in Christ. And the baptism stopped the demonic attacks!

__________

UPDATE (11/18/2015)

I received a call from the Protestant family in Fort Wayne, IN. The 3-year-old boy is doing well. And, the father is now in the RCIA program.

Glory to God!

BLACK MASS, BAPHOMET AND DEVIL WORSHIP

BLACK MASS -- POLITICAL THEATRE IN AMERICA
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA


Oklahoma City is the beleaguered city where Satanists want to install a monument to Satan next to the Ten Commandments monument outside the Oklahoma State Capitol building.

"Striving to expand acceptance of beliefs in response to American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) Concerns, 'The Satanic Temple,' based in New York City, offered to donate a public monument to Oklahoma's Capitol Preservation Commission for display upon Oklahoma City's capitol grounds. Described as an 'homage' to Satan, the purpose of the monument is to complement and contrast the 'Ten Commandments' monument that already resides on the North side of the building." _ The Satanic Temple (December 2, 2013)

September 21, 2014 _ The Satanic Temple performed a Black Mass at the Oklahoma City Civic Center. While over 400 Roman Catholics gathered to pray outside the Civic Center in Oklahoma City, over 1,200 attended a Holy Hour of Reparation with Archbishop Paul S. Coakley. Only 42 ticket holders showed up to attend the Black Mass.

THE UNVEILING OF BAPHOMET
Detroit, Michigan, USA



Detroit is the beleaguered city where The Satanic Temple has a significant following. Detroit was selected for the unveiling of a 9-foot-tall Baphomet monument.

July 25, 2015 _ Hundreds of people came out to celebrate The Satanic Temple's unveiling of the Baphomet monument. Most of these young people are just curious and looking for a little excitement. It's like Halloween in July: "Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll" -- and some Satanism too.

BLACK MASS -- DEVIL WORSHIP IN MEXICO
Catemaco, Veracruz, Mexico

 
March 13, 2015 _ This is where natives come to worship the Devil, and curious pilgrims come looking for a little excitement on the Dark Side. Live animals are sacrificed, the Devil is summoned, and people make pacts with the Devil. Curious pilgrims leave horrified by what they witness.

Curious pilgrims who attend this Black Mass will return home with a spiritual attachment. (Demons attach themselves to people, and people bring these demons home with them.) Doors have been opened -- and many will be terribly oppressed by demons. Some may be partially-possessed -- that is, having an evil spirit in one's body.

NOT BORN THIS WAY

The Devil attacks what is good and holy -- and perverts it. LGBT (that is, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) is the Devil’s perversion of human sexuality.

Asmodeus is the prince of demons representing one of the seven deadly sins. Asmodeus is the demon of lust that is responsible for twisting people’s sexual desires.

Metropolitan Community Church of New York

LGBT people are good people -- but they have been deceived… They were not born this way! The Devil tricks normal men and women into thinking and believing they are homosexual or bisexual... and demons of lust, homosexuality and sexual perversion build strongholds in their minds.

The attraction is lust -- not love. It is a demon that causes one to feel lust for -- and become sexually aroused by -- another person of the same sex.

 The one with the pitchfork says,
“God made you this way.”

As explained in Many Thoughts Are Spirits (http://catholicdeliverance.blogspot.com/2011/06/many-thoughts-are-spirits.html) thoughts come from three places: the subconscious mind, God and the Devil. The spiritual war takes place in the minds of men and women. Both angels and demons can place thoughts in our minds. They can also project images on our minds.
 
Sex demons can invade our dreams with pornographic fantasies of having sexual relations -- even with members of the same sex!

Demons tempt many people with shameful, degrading, unnatural passions; they tempt them to commit “sins against nature.” Everything is turned upside down! The “sin of the Sodomites” (homosexual sexual activity) is one of the sins that “cries to heaven” (Catechism of the Catholic Church, #1867).

Temptation is to be resisted (James 4:7). The majority of people reject “same-sex” thoughts with little effort -- but a minority of people act on them. Some people are more vulnerable in this area of their lives than others. For them, “same-sex” temptations become too difficult to resist. And evil increases insensibly, once it is given in to.

The teaching of the Catholic Church regarding homosexual sexual activity as morally disordered -- constituting grave sin and against the Natural Law which binds all human beings -- is clear.

Once these homosexual temptations and perverted sexual fantasies are yielded to, explored, acted on… a door is opened -- consent is given -- and demons of lust, homosexuality... and sexual perversion can invade and inhabit one's body. This is what I refer to as "partial" possession: One's "sexuality" is now under the control of demons.

Men give up (exchange) natural, sexual relations with women and burn with lust for one another; women give up (exchange) natural, sexual relations with men and burn with lust for one another (Romans 1:26-27). Everything is turned upside down!

LGBT people are good people -- but they have been deceived… They were not born this way! All LGBT people are in need of deliverance -- and inner healing.

Eternal Father,
Please give all LGBT people
the graces of True Repentance
and Conversion to Your Son Jesus.
Give them the grace to experience
Your Love,
and be transformed by it.
Amen.

AN APPROPRIATE RESPONSE

This morning, I believe the Lord showed me how to respond to a prayer request for someone with terminal cancer. I am also aware that this is an appropriate response to many other prayer requests I receive.

I replied: (The woman) should receive the Eucharist every day. For about 15 minutes after receiving Holy Communion, she will have within her, flowing through her body, the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ.

 
After receiving Holy Communion each day, (the woman) should pray:

Lord Jesus, as Your Blood mixes with mine and flows through my veins, purify my blood of all cancer cells. (Pause) Lord Jesus, as You flow through me, touch all the areas of my body that need to be restored to health. (Pause) Jesus, I surrender my life to You; take care of everything. Amen.

Of course, (the woman) must be free of all bitterness, resentment... and un-forgiveness. I also recommend The Surrender Novena -- Total Abandonment to God: http://catholicdeliverance.blogspot.com/2014/09/surrender.html


Although there is no distance in prayer, the charism of healing requires physical touch -- that is, “the laying on of hands.” Obviously, this cannot be done “long distance.” But, you do not need someone like me to receive God's healing touch. There is a more perfect way: the Sacraments of the Catholic Church.

 
Jesus Christ Is In The Eucharist! The doctrine of the Real Presence asserts that in the Holy Eucharist, Jesus is literally and wholly present -- body, blood, soul and divinity -- under the appearances of bread and wine.

“In the Eucharist is the same identical Jesus Who was carried by Mary for nine months in her womb before she delivered Him in Bethlehem. It is the selfsame Jesus Who died on the Cross, rose from the dead and ascended into heaven.” _ Fr. John A. Hardon, S.J.

“Do not, therefore, regard the bread and wine as simply that, for they are, according to the Master’s declaration, the body and blood of Christ. Even though the senses suggest to you the other, let faith make you firm. Do not judge in this matter by taste, but be fully assured by faith, not doubting that you have been deemed worthy of the body and blood of Christ.” _ Cyril of Jerusalem [Saint Cyril, Bishop of Jerusalem (348-378) “Doctor of the Church” (Catechetical Discourses)]

GOD OF MUSLIMS, CHRISTIANS AND JEWS?

Arabic-speaking Muslims who convert to Christianity often refer to the One True God as “Allah” -- despite the fact that they recognize the differences between the nature and revelation of God as described in the Bible and the nature and revelation of God as described in the Qu’ran. [For example, the doctrine of the Holy Trinity (Matthew 28:19.)]

 
NOSTRA AETATE,
“Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions”

#3. _ The Church regards with esteem also the Moslems (Muslims). They adore the one God, living and subsisting in Himself; merciful and all-powerful, the Creator of heaven and earth, who has spoken to men; they take pains to submit wholeheartedly to even His inscrutable decrees, just as Abraham, with whom the faith of Islam takes pleasure in linking itself, submitted to God. Though they do not acknowledge Jesus as God, they revere Him as a prophet. They also honor Mary, His virgin Mother; at times they even call on her with devotion. In addition, they await the day of judgment when God will render their deserts to all those who have been raised up from the dead. Finally, they value the moral life and worship God especially through prayer, almsgiving and fasting.

Since in the course of centuries not a few quarrels and hostilities have arisen between Christians and Moslems (Muslims), this sacred synod (sancta synodus) urges all to forget the past and to work sincerely for mutual understanding and to preserve as well as to promote together for the benefit of all mankind social justice and moral welfare, as well as peace and freedom. _ Pope Paul VI (October 28, 1965).

NOTE: When the Bishops of the whole world are congregated under the presidency of the Pope, the synod (council) is denominated ecumenical or general. It is only to such an assembly that it is lawful to apply the term “sancta synodus” (sacred synod) _ New Advent, Catholic Encyclopedia

The further away people of other faiths are from the fullness of the Catholic faith, the more their understanding of God will be defective, and at times some people with a severely defective understanding of God may cross over into the worship of idols and demons... The more they reject Jesus Christ, the fullness of the revelation of God, the more defective their relationship with God will be... Consequently, we must engage in sympathetic, pro-active and compassionate missionary activity. _ Fr. Dwight Longenecker

RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORISM:
ISLAMIC STATE IS SATANIC
 
 
Note: "ISIS" (the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) is now called "ISIL" (the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant -- which includes Syria, Palestine, Lebanon, Israel, Jordan, and parts of Turkey).

Rome, Italy (April 15, 2015) _ In a recent Facebook post, well-known Roman exorcist Father Gabriele Amorth said the Islamic State (ISIS) “is Satan,” and he also questioned the lack of response from Western nations.

“ISIS is Satan. Things first happen in the spiritual realms, then they are made concrete on this earth,” he said in an April 8 post on the social media website.

Father Amorth continued, “there are only two spiritual realms: The Holy Spirit and the demonic spirit.”

He said the demonic enters in “because evil is disguised in various ways: political, religious, cultural, and it has one source of inspiration: the Devil. As a Christian I fight the beast spiritually.

“The political world, which today seems to lack a response in face of the massacre of Christians, will also have to fight ISIS and it will do it in a different way. If it advances as it seems to be doing, we ask ourselves what has the West done over the course of the last decades.”

The priest, who founded the International Association of Exorcists, explained that Satan “keeps saying that the world is in his power, and what he says is true. Biblically speaking we are in the last days and the beast is working furiously.

ISIS took control of the largest Christian city in Iraq, Qaraqosh, in August last year, causing tens of thousands of people to flee.

The terrorist group has persecuted and murdered Christians and other religious minorities in parts of Syria and Iraq.

Fr. Amorth, age 90, has performed over 70,000 exorcisms during the past 29 years. The number is so high because carrying out an exorcism can require multiple sessions and each time the rite is administered it is counted as one instance.

Fr. Amorth has previously spoken about the danger posed by people no longer believing in the Devil, as well as a shortage of exorcists.
