“All these things cause the Father-General to be feared by the Pope and
the sovereigns . . . A sovereign who is not their friend will sooner or
later experience their vengeance.” {1}

Popery, Puseyism and Jesuitism
The Jesuit Order was now formally banned by Pope Clement XIV’s Bull of
Suppression issued in 1773. The Bull was effective in countries where the Roman
Catholic Church and the Civil State were united. In countries where another Church
was united with the State, the Bull would not be enforced. Such was the case with
Prussia and Russia. “Mother Russia” was governed by an absolute monarchy, headed
by the Romanoffs. The Romanoff dynasty was the legal protector of the Russian
Orthodox Church, which included the Orthodox “Pope” called the “Patriarch.”
Church and State were united. Since Pope Clement XIV’s Bull of Suppression would
not be enforced in Russia, the Jesuits sought and received admittance and protection
there. In spite of the fact that Peter the Great had expelled the Jesuits during his
reign in 1719, Catherine the Great freely readmitted them once again in 1773.
Catherine believed the Order would protect her throne since she had murdered
her husband to acquire it. She was German and a Lutheran, as well as a whore
according to her son, Tzar Paul I; but as the Monarch of Russia she was the protector
of the Orthodox Church. Little did she know the secret designs of the Order as it
deeply penetrated the Orthodox priesthood and acquired such political power that
Tzar Alexander I would expel it after the Congress of Vienna, in 1820.
The other absolute Monarch who gave protection to the Jesuit Order was
Frederick II “the Great,” King of Prussia. This heroic military leader of the Seven
Years’ War with its Protestant victory was the protector of the Lutheran Church in
that country. Church and State were united. Therefore, Clement XIV’s Bull of
Suppression and Extinction was not enforced in Lutheran Prussia . . . So the Jesuits,
“the Pope’s bodyguard,” sought and received protection from Frederick II.
