The Pope Last Updated this on February 6, 2010
February 6: "The Jews have a saying that is Israel kept the Law for but one day, Messiah would come, and we may think that if Christians abstained from sin for but one day, the world would be converted."
Daneil (8:12) reports: "And strength was given him against the continual sacrifice, because of sins: and truth shall be cast down on the ground, and he shall do and shall prosper" This prophecy is about the fact that Antichrist will take the Holy Sacrifice away entirely. Rev. Hunter, who wrote this Dogmatic Theology is talking about moral miracles where whole nations or groups are converted to the true Faith. It is time we converted and as a body abstained from all sin, mortal and venial, but for one day. Ash Wednesday is a good day to make an extra effort to abstain from all deliberate sins.
But in applying these tests to ourselves, we must beware of self-deceit, lest we be of those ‘who trusted in themselves as just and despised others’ (Luke 18:9). A strong safeguard is perfect openness in our dealing with our confessor, and obedience to his directions.” (Oh Lord, restore Confessors to us!)

I have a question. Would you like to see a discussion of the Great Apostasy?
