Fighting Errors in the Modern World / Re: How Do You Truly Resist the Neo-SSPX and Vatican II Spirit?
« Last post by Matthew on Today at 01:54:37 PM »How are you resisting in real life the conciliar spirit and the Neo-SSPX’s submission to it?
Is your resistance just about where you attend Mass, or something lived every day?
Traditional Catholics have, traditionally, vastly over-valued the role attending a single Tridentine Mass once a week plays in their strategy for saving their soul, overcoming the World/flesh/devil, etc.
Spoiler alert: one hour on Sunday is NOT going to work some miracle and overcome dozens of hours of bad companions, media influence, bad habits, brainwashing, public school, etc.
GRACE BUILDS UPON NATURE. God isn't going to work a miracle and destroy the neural pathways in your brain formed by attending public school, consuming TV & social media, etc. God respects His creation and the laws that govern it!
God isn't going to make a bowling ball float in a body of water, just because YOU made the horrible, imprudent decision to send your children to public school. Or allow gallons of propaganda into your brain via social media, Hollywood, worldly companions, etc.
If you foolishly walk into a burning building, God will respect His creation's laws that He laid down and allow your body to be burnt, forcing your soul out of it. And here's the kicker: You wouldn't be able to blame God for the outcome! It was YOUR Free Will, foolishly abused, that caused your fiery death.
"Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God!"
