Sometimes life brings us situations we're the only Arms we have is prayer. But this is not to say we are helpless. Prayer is an effective recourse, its not nothing.
INSIDE the VATICAN: Pope Francis, Bill Clinton & Alex Soros By: Michael J. Matt | Editor New from Remnant TV... “We’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children” – that is what the LGBT folks are shouting in the streets of America. But when a woman in Minnesota tried to defend the children, they called her the hater. Thirty years ago, Andres Serrano became infamous for photographing a crucifix in a jar of urine, but Pope Francis just invited him to the Vatican. The neo-Catholic useful idiots insist that Francis is just calling for “dialogue.” What do you think? One week later, Pope Francis held unannounced meetings with Bill Clinton, John Kerry, and Alexander Soros in the Casa Santa Marta. So now what are the Globalist elites up to? Meanwhile, Pope Francis appoints a theological weirdo as the Vatican’s top “watchdog of orthodoxy”. Archbishop Víctor Manuel Fernández, author of “Heal Me With Your Mouth: The Art of Kissing,” is in the house. Is Francis still the pope? I don't know, but what do you think? Our Bellarmine Moment has arrived. The Vatican has officially allied itself with global elites who are trying to take over the world and uncrown Christ the King. Cardinal Gerhard Müller is right – it is a hostile takeover of the Catholic Church, and we must resist!
Our Lady has asked for prayers, penance, and the rosary time and time again. At Fatima, she showed Hell to the children. She said that many souls go to Hell because there is no one to pray and make sacrifices for them. This must be very efficacious in this time of hard trial or she would not have recommended it. I personally think that when a soul leaves the Church, prayers are the only answer to bringing them back. Talk is cheap. I am not at all sure that mental reservations are always licit. IMHO, they are a gray area for the soul that uses them.
I think Our Lady said at one Apparition Site, 'At the end the only arms that will be left to you will be my Rosary'.
"The only arms which will remain for you will be the Rosary and The Sign left by My Son" - Our Lady of Akita
Yes.... St. Monica, for 17 years, flooded heaven with prayers and tears for her apostate son, the great St. Augustine....
Yes, and at an opportune time, the Lord sent the grace of conversion to Saul of Tarsus, who became St. Paul.
...and the conversion of Saul of Tarsus was made possible through the prayers and tears of the Blessed Virgin Mary to Her Son, it is written in the book "Mystical City of God" by Ven. Mary of Agreda.
Yes, Fr. Altman bordered on vindictiveness and received intermittent applause. I'd be extremely reluctant to go down that road.
reminds me too of the anger of Fr. Corapi and Fr. Frank Pavone when they were "disciplined" by their Church leaders...
I'd avoid Fr Altman like the plague. The poor man clearly has issues is too emotionally driven hence is not able to think straight like a rabbit in the headlights. But he still deserves our prayers.
One thing I did find a little disturbing about, 'Cancelled', priests was a utube video about a few of them. They had somehow got money to buy an extensive mansion with beautiful park like gardens and we're looking for a lot more money to do refurbishments to what already looked like a six star hotel. All this made me very uneasy.
Yes it reminded me of the Carmelites argument with their Bishop down in Texas. My immediate reaction was to see the Carmelites qas the victims, then I looked into it a bit more and my sympathy switched to the Bishop. Then I looked into it a bit more and I didn't like any of them. Then I gave up. That's the way things are at the moment. All that glistens is certainly not gold.
It's similiar in a way with Pope Francis. Some of the things he says are 50 carat pure gold and diamonds. Then other things he gets up to and says are a total abomination. No wonder some folks get confused.
The thing that most disturbs me at the moment is the silence of the Bishops and Cardinals. Just dead , dead total silence. That really disturbs me more than anything.
