  • Look for books by Fr. Cisek.

    Walter Joseph Ciszek was a Polish-American Jesuit priest who conducted clandestine missionary work in the Soviet Union between 1939 and 1963. Fifteen of these years were spent in confinement and hard labor in the Gulag, plus five preceding them in Moscow's infamous Lubyanka prison
    Help of Christians, guard our land from assault or inward stain,
    Let it be what God has planned, His new Eden where You reign.

  • I must tell you that I am fading, really bad. My RCIA class is killing me I have studied STA deeply for 5 years, I burned my COCC and bought Six Catholic Catechisms Anthology,  i stopped praying the Prayer of Immaculata, the Rosary and have forsaken my love to Mother Mary in my behavior. I am not Catholic on paper. Is there pre- vat2 catechism. Where can I turn, please PRAY the above words exactly and directly to Our Lord  while standing at the foot of the Cross.  Do not pray them unless you mean them.


    PRAY the above words exactly and directly to Our Lord while standing at the foot of the Cross. Do not pray them unless you mean them.  Otherwise you insult God.  He is the only one who can help you - not us, because we can only pray for you.

  • I wrote the above post.  It timed out before I could remove the repetitive section.

    If we do not mean our prayers our second state can be worse than out first for God is not mocked.
    "In His wisdom," says St. Gregory, "almighty God preferred rather to bring good out of evil than never allow evil to occur."

  • Thank you. I admit I failed but this has rebooted my faith. "The Devil never runs upon a man to sieze him with his claws until he sees him on the ground, already having fallen by his own will" St. Thomas Moore. I am back.

  • Remember that this life is known as the "Time of mercy". If God had given up on you, you wouldn't be alive anymore. 

    There's a famous Latin phrase, "Dum spiro, spero". It translates, "While I breathe, I hope."
    Want to say "thank you"?

    Deo gratias!! :pray: Thank you for letting us know.
    Patience is a conquering virtue. The learned say that, if it not desert you, It vanquishes what force can never reach; Why answer back at every angry speech? No, learn forbearance or, I'll tell you what, You will be taught it, whether you will or not.
    -Geoffrey Chaucer

  • What keeps me going is the thought of seeing the wicked punished.

    I am glad God is merciful to the weak sinners.  But I am delighted He is just and wrathful to the reprobates.

    I've had a bellyful of their godless, atheistic BS over the years and I am fed up to the back teeth with it.

    "Vengeance is mine sayeth the Lord".  But he doesn't sayeth I cannot delight in His wrath.

    All I need now is a beeswax telescope.

    I don't think the saints had that attitude.
    Consider Maria Goretti's Mom being escorted by her daughter's rapist at her canonization.
    We must pray for our enemies and hope they are saved.
    There but for the grace of God go any of us after all.

    RCIA, STA, COCC are all Novus Ordo acronyms, so the first thing I read what what you wrote is that  you've been eating rat poison for at least 5 years. (Rat poison is 99% nutritious food, did you know that? It is the 1% that kills the rat, the 99% is there to attract it to eat.) The Novus Ordo is more like 20% poison, and more depending on your teachers. 
    The second thing is that the sacraments ( the mass, communion, confession) you have been receiving may not be valid, may not be real sacraments because you have not ever been with a real priest.
    Third and most important is your life and how you have been living it. If you are attached to sin, you will never receive arrive at the narrow gate that leads to salvation. In the Novus Ordo they can teach you that you that God accepts you as a sinner as long as you are nice and support the church with donations. It does not work that way! If you are a man living with a woman, fornicating, have a Novus ordo annulment, are t attached to pornography, going to the beach to see the naked women, lusting after women, going to bars to pickup women, self abuse, use drugs, drink excessively....... or if you are a woman dressing immodestly to attract men, going to bars, having relations with men.... If you are attached to any of those sins, you are an enemy of God, and will get nowhere with all your Hail Mary's, till you get rid of your sinful ways. 
    So, the answer is to cleanse yourself of all of your iniquities in confession with a real priest and do not sin again.

    Then God will provide you with good teachers.
