Cleansing Fire is a novel of history and theology written by Peter B. Kelly, JD. The book is intended to serve as a study guide to assist readers interested in exploring the theological origins of the global disorder so evident in this first decade of the twenty-first century.
As it is an account of how some believers manage to remain faithful to God and how God responds to that devotion, it is a love story. It is also a story of historic betrayal, and of a hatred of God which still
threatens us all.
This novel is a beacon from a tower of stone, a beam of light searching for
drifting castaways. It stands against the cultural wind and scans the storm tossed waves of our world where we all
barely float in the treacherous hurricane of Godlessness submerging our mortal - and eternal - existence.
The old world order is rapidly collapsing. Our economic, governmental, cultural and religious systems are
changing before our eyes. In theology, the primary methodology of this change is called “Modernism” which includes the
concept that important religious beliefs or dogmas not only can change over time, but must change
– and
be updated - to suit the current culture. But as Pope Saint Pius X
warned, this belief will lead to the eventual disregard of all religious
beliefs, Catholic and non-catholic alike, that will each eventually be
deemed passe’.The Fourth Memoir of Sister Lucia of Fatima revealed that the famous “Third Secret of Fatima”, which was to be released in 1960 just before Vatican II, begins with the words “In Portugal the dogma of the Faith will always be preserved etc.” In his book, Mr. Kelly suggests that this Third Secret logically continues with a pointed prophesy that Catholic dogma will not be preserved by the Modernists elsewhere on earth beyond Portugal. Perhaps the Evangelist Saint Luke was envisioning such widespread effects of Modernism when he wrote: “Yet when the Son of Man comes, will he find, do you think, faith on the earth.” (Lk 18:8)
