Rad Trad Convert Joshua Charles On The “Katechon”

The majority of Church Fathers believed that the “katechon” or “restrainer” who holds back the coming of Antichrist (2 Thess. 2) was something Roman, probably the Roman Empire itself in some sense.

It’s fascinating to consider what has taken place in the world the last hundred…

OK this confused convert claimed that the “Katechon” is 

1. The Papacy 

2. President Trump 

3. The Catholic Church

The Convert NEVER said that the  “Katechon”  was the Roman Emperor.

The Convert willfully ignored what ALL of the Church Fathers who said who the retainer is. 

The Church Fathers are in agreement that the “katechon” or “restrainer” is the Roman Emperor.

Now in his latest X post he admits that the “Katechon” is the Roman Empire.

Why his change of heart?

Well because I've been kicked off of X (probably by the complaints from Rad Trad Converts) and I deleted my previous blogs which documented the history on who the “katechon” or “restrainer” is.

Because of my absence from the Internet the Confused Convert can steal my ideas.

But he will fail.

Because the Confused Convert doesn't understand what follows from the view that the “Katechon” is the Roman Emperor. If so that means that the absence of the Roman Emperor will give rise to:

1. The Forerunner to the Antichrist 

2. The restoration of the Holy Roman Empire by the Holy Roman Emperor.

3. The defeat of the Forerunner to the Antichrist 

I think the Convert Anthony Stine said the same that the “katechon” is 

1. The Papacy 

2. The Catholic Church 

3. President Trump 

Because Stine and Charles are both FSSP converts and have the same confused and twisted world view.

Now the Convert Joshua is changing his view? 

He claims now that the “katechon” is "the Roman Empire itself in some sense." 

Still the Convert gets it wrong. According to the Church Fathers the “katechon” is the Divinely Ordained Authority of the Holy Roman Emperor. 

But because the Convert has a twisted and confused world view he is wrong on who the “katechon” is.

 

Charles claims that we are in the end times and that there will be NO Forerunner to the Antichrist and there will be NO Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I will document the Converts fall.
