  • It's the 24th and Last Sunday after Pentecost, so Judgment Day discussion is warranted.  :fryingpan:

    A traditional priest mentioned in a sermon that confessed sins are not revealed to all at the General Judgment, but our repentance is.  

    Can someone confirm a source for follow up?

  • Not sure where that priest got his information from, but how would everyone know the Justice of God if some information is withheld? Sorry, that priest is wrong.

    The judgment will embrace all works, good or bad, forgiven as well as unforgiven sins, every idle word (Matthew 12:36), every secret thought (1 Corinthians 4:5). With the exception of Peter Lombard, theologians teach that even the secret sins of the just will be made manifest, in order that judgment may be made complete and that the justice and mercy of God may be glorified. This will not pain or embarrass the saints, but add to their glory, just as the repentance of St. Peter and St. Mary Magdalen is to these saints a source of joy and honour.

  • Speaking of the Last Judgment, here is a link to an oratorio about it:

    It is an oratorio by the composer and priest Fr. Giacomo Carissimi who worked for the Collegium Germanicuм in Rome during the 17th century.
    "Non nobis, Domine, non nobis; sed nomini tuo da gloriam..." (Ps. 113:9)
