You are asking the wrong question. It’s not what is the BEST religion but which is the TRUE religion. Jesus said in John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to The Father except through me”. I already have a high priest (Hebrews 4:14-16) who is the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2: 5-6) and THAT is Christ Jesus. We need no other.
A real Christian's only authority is GOD HIMSELF not traditions. The WORD of GOD made flesh, JESUS CHRIST, said in Matthew 4:4 KJV when contending against the devil "But HE answered and said, It is written, man shall not live by bread alone, but by EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the MOUTH OF GOD." CHRIST quoted this from Deuteronomy 8:3 KJV. Now, what WORDS are GOD's??? 2 Timothy 3:15 KJV "and that from a child you have known the HOLY SCRIPTURES, which are able to make you wise unto salvation through faith which is in CHRIST JESUS. 16ALL SCRIPTURE is given by INSPIRATION OF GOD, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 that the MAN OF GOD may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works. *The RCC is incapable of understanding that true believers are inhabited by GOD HIMSELF (Ephesians 2:19-22 KJV) and it is the FATHER HIMSELF that teaches the true Christian all truth (John 6:44-45 KJV). HOLY SCRIPTURES ARE GOD'S WORD directly to MOSES and the PROPHETS and to the HOLY MEN that were moved by GOD HIMSELF to write the BOOKS of the NEW TESTAMENT. I personally know GOD because HE personally has revealed HIMSELF to me and every true believer....says the HOLY SCRIPTURES....making true believers kings and priests of the true Church which is spiritual and not a palace in Rome (1 Peter 2:3-5 KJV).
I did this and I’m a girl when I was in my 30’s. I stayed in a one room little shack for 3 days in a desert and I loved it. I slept like a baby and the solitude was great. I think God gave me the gift of solitude at a very early age, even though I had 5 siblings. I don’t even watch TV anymore and it was so easy to give up. I asked myself, ‘ would I watch this program with Jesus’ and I found out that most of the stuff on TV Jesus would find offensive. I do not miss it. I use RU-vid and internet for current events, church and world news and basically those snippets give enough to tell me if I have to search farther for truth. You get to know those you can trust and sometimes they even fall short, which is no surprise in the world we live in, but I have found to connect to God one needs silence. The further along the journey I have traveled the more I crave silence with God.
I walk around my house 9 times a day- shaking old bones , a crucifix and raw onion. I chant Hilary Clinton’s name - and boy he keeps demons and evil away.
Something keeps eating my bean plants no matter how much I protect them…but I just read in a book about composting that at least rabbits and woodchucks really don’t like the smell of blood meal so if you sprinkle some around your tender plants it might protect them a bit. Apparently dogs love the smell though. I haven’t tried it yet, but plan to!
And then if you water well, then fill old wine bottles with water and turn them upside down into the dirt, it might help things stay watered. I haven’t tried that either, but saw it on IG😏. Worth a try.
Hi father Mark an incredible talk it's just amazing I try to follow God's commandments every waking day 🙏 ❤️ 💖 perfection is awesome but only god our creator & savior is the only true & perfect being praise be to Jesus christ 😅😅😅
Thank you, father Mark for making me feel good. I always feel I need to be more than what I am. I just need to be what God has called me to be and be the best of that person. Thank you and God bless you.
As a child in the 1950's attending St. Brendan's School, Sister Maria thought us the very same lesson in life, she said Jesus was human & and also God, he was perfect. If you have Jesus as a role model, you won't be perfect, but you will be ahead of everyone else.
Nice! Put some kind of a tarp to cover your bed garden..You will be disappointed if few animals try to take advantage of your blessed vegetables, unless you don't mind them sharing your food since God has created them to " yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest."Prov 6:8
Hi Fr Mark! I think if we are preparing for survival, we need to include things that provide essential nutrients and the most nutritive foods. For example beans, lemon tree, avocado tree!
Just go watch any of the many Near death Experiences and you will stop listening to these fear pushing lies. Most christians and catholics are so scared of hell they won't even think about it.. Blasphemy! Yeshua was accused of this... why? Do you think the church is going to tell you the truth? too funny... you were all deceived. The truth stands... there is no hell, it is a realm that we can CHOOSE to go to and experience... nothing more. No judgment... you are all LOVED LOVED LOVED and accepted as you are... even that evil man! God is ALL things. (YHWH is Enlil)
POPE BENEDICT XVI: Jesus “does not describe the end of the world, and when he uses apocalyptic images, he is not acting the prophet. On the contrary, he wants to stop his disciples of every epoch from being curious over dates and forecasts, and wants to give them the key to... the right road to walk today and tomorrow to enter into eternal life.” While Catholics believe the Bible is inspired by the Holy Spirit and that it is true, one cannot take individual biblical quotes or passages and say each one is literally true.”
Gardening yes!🍃🍃🍃 Healthy growing and eating, from the earth, is always the best way to go. Pray over everything after you plant it🙏🍃, for a blessed garden in Jesus mighty name!🙌✝️ Amen. Glory to God!
What a wonderful thought. Thank you Father. So often I measure my success in a day, by how much I get done. ✔️ So good to know my Heavenly Father sees me as a perfect human being… regardless. ❤️
Thank you Father I started a pottery class I struggle with my pots aren’t perfect like my classmates . Pray for for me in this venture that I may be as perfect as God wants not I ❤❤❤
I'm trying but it's so difficult to be perfect. I'm not blaming, but when at the gym, it's hard not to notice pretty women, many of whom wear VERY short shorts....ugh, God help me not to look!
If you're interested, the latter half of this video from Theology of the Body Institute has some insight I think would benefit you: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1YuPMlTkaFA.html
🌿✝️"Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God." (1 Corinthians 10:31) 🌿✝️"Even the most ordinary and most material act may become spiritual and holy." "If the thought of duty inspires you, if you have in view the good of souls and the glory of God, if you sincerely seek the will of your Father who is in Heaven, then all that you do takes on a supernatural value. 'If the root is holy," says the Apostle, 'so are the branches.' " (Bishop Emmanuel de Giberness, An excerpt from 'Strength in Simplicity', CH 2) 🌿🌹"You know well enough that Our Lord does not look so much at the greatness of our actions, nor even at their difficulty, but at the love with which we do them." (St. Therese of Liseux) 🌿✝️ Viva Cristo Rey! ✝️🌿
