As the title says, antipope Francis (Jorge Mario Bergoglio) is not the Pope. Not only this, but after providing him with a chance to enter a state of grace if he is not already, Jorge Mario Bergoglio must be publicly executed. Justice demands it on account of the profound global scandal he has caused with his numerous evil statements while usurping the See of Peter, and there is one other very important reason that he must be executed for that maybe I will explain at some other point in time.
After considering many factors, I have decided to make a separate thread dedicated specifically to only this topic. Now, I will keep this succinct by simply stating the prime reason Jorge Mario Bergoglio is not the Pope. It has to do with Latin verbage in cooperation with the Code of Canon Law, and the reason is that Pope Benedict XVI, on February 11th, 2013, did not resign the office of the Episcopacy of Rome. He attempted to resign the ministry, and this is not efficacious. Let us now examine why.
You can read the Pope’s declaratio in Latin here, and I have also linked a YouTube video with the audio of him reading aloud the declaratio:

The only part of interest in the declaratio is, “...me ministerio Episcopi Romae, Successoris Sancti Petri,…,” and in regards to the video, start at 1:16, which begins with our Holy Father saying, “Quapropter,” and then listen for him to repeat the exact same words as I have extracted from the declaratio. If either of these links go down, I will post a copy of their content.
Again, I’m trying to keep this information simple to digest, so I am going to briefly summarize why Pope Benedict XVI did not resign the Papacy. His declaratio, which was supposed to effect his renunciation of the Papacy, used the wrong word, and words have meaning. Resigning the
ministerium of the Episcopacy of Rome is not resigning the
munus or
officium that is uniquely entrusted by Christ to the Episcopacy of Rome. The words
munus and
officium are interchangeable, and they are the words that have traditionally been used in Canon Law to reference this special office that is given to the Pope—among some other canonical matters.
Ministerium has no place in any discussion regarding the matter of the office of the Episcopacy of Rome. It simply does not mean what the other two words mean, and to try and resign the office of the Episcopacy of Rome with this word is like a priest trying to transubstantiate the species of bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ with the Happy Birthday song. There is zero effect in both scenarios. The office is retained if you use
ministerium, and you only have bread and wine if you recite the Happy Birthday song with the species.
Furthermore, the Holy Father correctly idenitifies the
munus Petrinum in his declaratio, so he not only knew the word
munus, but he understood that it is a
munus that he holds as the Bishop of Rome. His choice of resigning the
ministerium Episcopi Romae was a deliberate choice of the word
ministerium. He never resigned the
munus Episcopi Romae. Therefore, Pope Benedict XVI is still the Pope and remains our Holy Father. For personal review, please reference with canons 187-189 and 331-335 in the 1983 Code of Canon Law.
If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer them, but hopefully, you can cross-reference my assertions here without any assistance. Anyway, I hope this explanation helps just one person to not lose their faith.
I will end this post with a prayer:
God, render justice to Jorge Mario Bergoglio. Give him sufficient grace to achieve the Beatific Vision. Put his life into the hands of men that will justifiably execute him. Fully restore the See of Peter to Pope Benedict XVI, and may he consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Our Mother. Finally, please give abundant graces to Your sons and daughters on this forum.
Oro in Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen.
May God have mercy on us.
