Crop Formations in France 2019 Part 4a

Who was St. Hyppolyte?

St. Hyppolyte (Hyppolytus of Rome)

(born c. 170—died c. 235, Sardinia

Western feast day August 13

Eastern feast day January 30

He was a Christian martyr who was also the first antipope (217/218–235).

Hippolytus was a leader of the Roman church during the pontificate (c. 199–217) of St. Zephyrinus, whom he attacked as being a modalist (one who conceives that the entire Trinity dwells in Christ and who maintains that the names Father and Son are only different designations for the same subject).

Hippolytus, rather, was a champion of the Logos doctrine that distinguished the persons of the Trinity.

He conceived of God as a unit who, while indivisible, was plural.

In ethics he was conservative—being scandalized when Calixtus (successor of Zephyrinus) took measures to extend absolution to graver sins such as adultery—and he regarded the church as a society composed

exclusively of the just.

So, in shorter terms, he was a priest who was announced as anti-pope by his followers because he stood up against the attitude of the Catholic church.

The sitting pope had announced that sexual sins were allowed to be paid off with money.

In the eyes of St. Hyppolytus sexual misbehavior was a deadly sin. 

He was banned to Sardinia, was tortured and died there and is seen as a martyr.

He is the one and only anti-pope who is canonized (sainted).

It is interesting to see that even in the 3rd century AD someone stood up against the situation in the Catholic church.

It is the same thing which is happening nowadays: victims of -sexual- abuse by priests or bishops are silented with money or are getting paid after a legal process.

The American Catholic church has spent millions already on this and the scandals are piling up all over the world. 

 

So what could be the symbolism of the link between crop formations and the Catholic church?

 

April 15th  Fire partly destroys Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris: symbol of the demise of the Catholic church?

 

June 1st    Crop formation near Moisselles next to a pilgrimage site for St. Mary (Notre Dame)

 

June 13th Crop formation near St. Hyppolyte (a "rebellious" priest who stood up against the church)

Moisselles, St. Hyppolyte, Notre Dame.......do the crop circle makers want to tell us something?
