  • Please, don't take this personally - many will read it - for some it will give them some moments of reflection.


    Very often you make exceptions, instant by instant you forget this Holy Guide and with amazing easiness, you submerge yourselves in the world like in a lake of calm and safe waters; but it's not like that: If you could see with the eyes of the soul, you would see that it is more like a very dangerous mud swamp full of alligators and reptile animals who are always stalking, and much more those who are God’s!  

    Children of light!  Who are the ones they stalk the most because -understand it once and for all!  They want to hurt Jesus’ Most Sacred when they damage His Children, and you give them the opportunity!  Don't do it. Keep yourselves in your homes where you can pray, to intercede, to read, to learn, and to grow.

  • Well I am not going to the pub anymore, which I went to everyday, because God has shown me that I was amongst evil. I have come across murderers and sodomites, and for this reason I am outraged. People will take advantage of your good nature, but Catholics have no communion with sinners as evil as these. So I am not going anymore. I will stay at home. If anyone reads this who goes to pubs regularly, I say stop now, dont wait until something happens before you realize that you are surrounded by evil and people who hate religion.

    Yes, stay inside your homes where your craziness will not be on display, driving the world away from Catholicism.  Good show.  Keep it up.  Why, it is with fondness that I recall those Gospel versus in which Jesus told his followers to stay inside their houses!  Versus like...um....uh....

    Hey, did Jesus ever say that?  

    Hmmm.

     It's written in the extreme to make a point - not to be taken literally - anyway there are people who serve others in convents and monasteries with many hours of prayer - so it has it's place - one person staying at home and praying for 5 hours a day - even 1 or 2 hours will do more to help the world than you or  anyone else who spends their time out and about in the world.

  • "Bear not the yoke with unbelievers. For what participation hath justice with injustice? Or what fellowship hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? Or what part hath the faithful with the unbeliever? And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God; as God saith: I will dwell among them. And I will be their God: and they shall be my people. Wherefore: Go out from among them and be ye separate saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing: And I will receive you. And I will be a Father to you: and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." II Corinthians 6:14-18. How's that for you Ick. "Craziness" is by your definition Ick the refusal to eat up whatever rubbish the Agentur of International Jєωry see fit to hand out. If that puts off infidels that's not the fault of the faithful.

  • [6] " They therefore who were come together, asked him, saying: Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel? [7] But he said to them: It is not for you to know the times or moments, which the Father hath put in his own power: [8] But you shall receive the power of the Holy Ghost coming upon you, and you shall be witnesses unto me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the uttermost part of the earth.

    We cannot be witness unto Christ hidden in our homes. We must be in the world, yet not of it. Although there are reclusive religious such as monks who may do that, other Catholics in different state of life, need to be in the world, right in front line, facing it, conquering it and winning souls over Our Lord & Our Lady. We are supposed to be the walking light of this world of darkness, preach the Gospel to our neighbor, and extend as far as possible the kingdom of Christ Jesus.
    If anyone says that true and natural water is not necessary for baptism and thus twists into some metaphor the words of our Lord Jesus Christ" Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Spirit" (Jn 3:5) let him be anathema.

  • But our Lord told us to be the light of the world, we cannot do that by hiding in our homes cowering before the evil in the world.  We are soldiers in Christ's army by virtue of our confirmation, soldiers must go out and do battle.
