The Resurrection of the Roman Catholic Church | Griff Ruby

The Author

Griff Ruby is from Lompoc a small community town close to the stunning Pacific Coastline of California in the United States. He has been married to his wife Juliet for over twenty-Seven years. Griff like me was born in 1958 and for most of his life he has been searching for the true meaning of Christianity. That search took him on a journey as he explored various religious teachings, but he eventually settled on Catholicism, but even that is only the general neighbourhood since he speaks for a growing group of Catholics who believe that today’s Vatican no longer speaks for Catholicism. When you have a look at his books, you’ll see that he can be quite controversial, possibly putting him at odds with contemporary doctrine. What does he think of Vatican II? Well, I’ll let you draw your own conclusions as you peruse the pages. So, let’s turn to the book that we are going to focus on in this podcast interview.

The Book

For nearly two thousand years the Roman Catholic Church withstood all the currents of change and history and maintained a closely guarded orthodoxy which has always served as the basis and centre of all Christianity. Yet, it is as if all of that has been arbitrarily swept away in the few years by Vatican II. Given what the church has always taught about itself being indefectible. How could this have happened? Did that Council have something to do with that terrible loss of faith? Can the real Catholic Church be found today, and if so, where?

The shocking answer to this, once seen and truly understood, is as every bit as glorious as the original resurrection of Christ Himself, a tremendous source of faith and inspiration. It is broad-based, longstanding miracle passing right before our eyes, have we but the Grace to see it for what it is.

To give you a heads up as to what you can expect from Griff in this book, I’m revealing the contents so that you can get a flavour as to the tone of the book.

Other books by Griff Ruby

Sede Vacante

Sede Vacante! The literal translation from the Latin to English is ‘Vacant Chair.’

And when you have read the book, you’ll understand why Griff gave his book this title. At first glimpse Griff sets out the purpose of the book and let’s be clear it’s not a bedtime read, it was never intended to be that; it’s a thought-provoking book with some interesting and at times controversial viewpoints. For me Griff has set the book out in a unique way, are they chapters? Or are they sections that can be viewed as chapters? Either way you decide but Griff has set them as doctrines and deductions. He starts off with sixteen doctrines closely followed towards the end with five deduction sections, at the end of most doctrines and deductions Griff challenges you with a series of findings and raw questions all done to simply make you think. Is Griff’s Ideological rhetoric to your taste hmm…maybe, maybe not but it’s well worth investigating. At the end of the book, you’ll find an exceptionally well written epilogue, a compelling table of basic premises, findings and questions, and finally an engaging Appendix around the sources of errors against the authority of the traditional Catholic Bishops.

This book is extremely well written, but as I have already hinted at its contents in places will certainly raise a few eyebrows. I would be interested to hear what the hierarchy in the Vatican would say about this book. So, look for yourself and formulate your own opinions.

Is God’s will being shaped to fit man’s needs rather than man shaping himself to meet God’s expectations? This question is at the heart of this book.
