By upholding the standards of Christian life we glorify Christ’s name. By compromising our moral standards with passing fads we lower Christ’s name in the understanding of pagans. Holiness of life and witness baby!
I unfortunately know all too well the blindness involved in being a degenerate calling myself Christian without batting an eye. It’s God’s mercy through St Theophan the Recluse who splashed water in my face and made me see my errant way. God have mercy on us and help us be His living icons.
The present confusion in the Catholic Church should shame us all. We made your mission almost impossible. I pray for all faithless christians: myself the number one
Dear Father. I truly appreciate your great message this morning and pray that my own "luke warmness" doesn't lead to my own excommunication. I love your new MEGA slogan and will take it to heart. I long had thought of such a slogan "MAAGA" Make Almighty God Great Again only to realize he is and always will be Great. Rather we simply need to make "Him" known again. Continue to lead us from afar Father.
Awesome! Add to that the power of excommunication to bring grace, repentance, healing and change. This is perfectly reflected in the account of Emperor Theodosius, Bishop Ambrose, and the Massacre at Thessalonica (390 AD). Anyone reading this, google it and be blessed. MEGA! Hey Father Jason, isn't India the most intense place you've ever visited? I've been once, and I was so overwhelmed with the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes, it took me three days before I was able to sleep.
Amen to all that. Here's the elephant dancing in the room. Bergoglio (he's excommunicated himself as far as I'm concerned) but as long as he wears the white and the Cardinals don't depose him, the world calls him pope. He has now 3 times congratulated, encouraged "Fr" James Martin. Cardinal Fernandez whom Pope JPII stopped from teaching, Bergoglio has promoted him to Cardinal, and made him head of doctrine. On and on and on... book length heresies and scandals. How then, do we tell anyone - Protestant, Hindu, atheist - about any truths? It's like the current US president - how do you tell another country about democracy, that Legal system is impartial and not witch-hunting politicians based on Party, that the president cares for human rights when babies in the womb are killed, that the country is strong when any legless terrorist can stroll across the southern border? It is impossible.
Oh my god. You are in chennai . Do you understand tamil is ancient or ancient culture? Go check aramaic. its tamil. So is english . So is mandarin. So is cameroon. I was hindu but i am not believer in anything. Do miracle exist? Our beliefs can create miracle. more people think same , it will become critical mass and create miracle. If someone ask which religion they should convert to ? I say christianity. But that is for needy people. There is no god exists but Humans need god not only for survival for happiness. Atheism for sad people with darkness. Darkness is truth. But it cosumes you completely. Anything too much is too much even elixir. But that is not exactly true If you take a scale, 1% truth is 99% lies that is even Our human world is 99% lies. That includes all religion and everything Why? This is realm of lies where even truth has to pose as a lie to exists in human mind. We humans live in lies and die in reality. Not because we love lies , but our brain likes changes. Truth is some sort of cancer. brain get obsessed and die. One of the reson WE LOVE GOD ( atleats most humans are religious) because its a BIG LIE. Our brain eat it up. We live in fantasies. What is better way to live that fantasies of God So hindus created as many god ...and make themself and feel themself in aspect of God. is it right? Is there one True God? Not really. Simple minded people need One GOD. Because its easy to manage. Too many god too much confusion. Some place like WEST they want to control all the humans. That is why preachers go everywhere to convert. Especially India dont do it before not with BJP they do some and youtube ban anyone critique india So i wont say anything negative about any religion but i can say about generally. There is nothing wrong with what you are doing. But never critique. Viatnamese eat more watery food because its humid place. Never go against nature. Find the nature and follow it. Its ultimate DIVINE force. its always there. Humans wont be there in 1000 years. Goodluck
