Woe To ThoseWho Maintain Only An Outward Show And Pretence Of Religious Life

Blessed Francis used to say, 'The time is coming when this Order, so dear to God, will be brought into such disrepute by the bad example of evil friars that its members will be ashamed to appear in public. But those who come to receive the habit of the Order in those days will be guided solely by the workings of the Holy Spirit: flesh and blood will not contaminate them, and they will be truly blessed by God. And although no noble works will be done by them because the love that enables the Saints to labour so fervently will have grown cold, they will be assailed by tremendous temptations. But those who are found worthy in those days will be better than their predecessors.

'But woe to those who maintain only an outward show and pretence of the Religious Life, who congradulate themselves, trusting in their own cleverness and knowledge, and are shown to be good for nothing.'

Saint Francis of Assisi

Interesting. But what about those after Vatican II who removed their habits and threw them into the dung heap?
