Countdown to the Kingdom

Thank you again Christy,
It truly is diabolic disorientation, when honesty can be seen as immaterial/trival and snobbery!
In a similar vein the BLM rioters, spat at and called the 40 Catholics saying the rosary in front of the St Louis monument......."White Supremacist Racists"

 

Yay for Dr. Mark M.'s detailed analysis!!!! Thanks, Josephite, Christy and HH. More points to show that Fr. Michel is questionable.

 

Oh for Pete’s sakes. What kind of an analogy is this? How can you even compare. This is really uncalled for.

 

You just repeated what the New York Times does. It’s an attack. And one that should be reported.

 

the fact that there are demons in purgatory is not the official teaching of the church, but only of private revelation, which leaves the discussion infinitely open. I believe that demons can attack a soul in purgatory and I believe in Maria Simma whose books I bought at Mesjugorje.

but this is the least important point in Dr.'s Miravale article! no one can say for sure that he is wrong or right, but in the other 7 points he is right and his analysis raises many doubts in the very sanity of father Michel and I agree with that.

there are at least some demonic interference in some things about this priest. But I will not waste my time with him or cttk because these are waste of time and source of demonic infestation.

 

Great thanks for your opinion. So, go on to a post that won’t be a waste of your time. Again thanks for your opinion.

 

Very Funny video that Brian put up on the "time for a laugh thread".......it's about the alternative to truth these days! Done in a light hearted fashion, thought you and others may appreciate it

 

Came back on to say that while everybody’s going at it on here, Dr, Miravalle’s evaluation of the alleged messages of Fr.Rodrigue is rapidly moving on angel’s wings across the internet. Finally, some intelligent vindication. It was only a matter of time. I agree with his assessment on every point and am praying the Church uses it as a submission of expert opinion when rendering any decision , Honestly, I was one of those concerned who actually went as far as connecting with Dr. Miravalle’s voicemail, but decided not to leave a message in a moment of uncertainty as to how I’d phrase my request.. I’m sure glad others followed through, however.

PS-Already read main points of rebuttal and did not find them convincing.

 

Anybody knows the quote of st. Theresa of Avila?

Thank you, Catherine L. I had read this a few days ago, and lost the location. Interesting observation of O'Connor isn't it?

 

This is just for those who rather go to there to read Daniel's response article on Mark Miravalle's article directly...Here's direct link.

Thank you for this information Advocata Nostra,
I've just looked into Dr Miravalle and he seems legit.
The following is actually from the Franciscan University of Steubenville website.
Hopefully he can counter any untoward information.

Announcing the St. John Paul II Chair of Mariology
Dr. Mark Miravalle to Hold New Chair
April 09, 2018



STEUBENVILLE, OHIO—In recognition of his prolific work as a scholar, writer, speaker, and teacher on Mary, the Mother of God, Franciscan University of Steubenville has awarded the St. John Paul II Chair of Mariology to Dr. Mark Miravalle.

A theology professor at Franciscan University since 1986, Miravalle is the founder and senior editor of Ecce Mater Tua, an international journal of Mariology research. He is also president of the International Marian Association, comprised of more than 130 theologians, bishops, clergy, and laity worldwide who seek to promote Marian devotion and doctrine.

The St. John Paul II Chair of Mariology will enable Miravalle to increase his academic pursuits in this area of theology, as well as to speak and engage lay audiences at more conferences and through social media while he continues to teach at Franciscan University. Over the years, more than 5,000 students have taken his course offerings on Mary.

“This is a tremendous opportunity to work in solidarity with bishops, theologians, and Marian leaders worldwide to champion Our Lady’s causes, which are so important for our world today,” said Miravalle, who has written 15 books and participated in nearly 800 television and radio shows on Marian subjects. He has also served as a consultant to Marian documentaries on NBC, PBS, and the National Geographic Channel, and has been interviewed by a wide range of secular and Catholic media including the BBC, FOX News, EWTN, and the National Catholic Register.

Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mother has always been central to Franciscan spirituality, said Dr. Daniel Kempton, chief academic officer at Franciscan University, adding, “It is very fitting and even vital that Franciscan University continue to honor Mary, Our Mother, and to express this affection for Mary in its scholarly and teaching missions. Certainly, this chair was motivated by the donor’s and the University’s jointly held commitment to the study of Mary, and our shared respect for Dr. Miravalle’s prominence and importance as one of the world’s leading Mariologists.”

The new chair builds on other academic advancements that are making Franciscan University a national center for Mariological study. These include the new Marian concentration in Franciscan University’s MA Theology Program and the appointment of a second Mariologist, Brother Daniel Maria Klimek, TOR, who will begin teaching full-time at the University in fall 2018, when Miravalle’s appointment to the new chair begins.

The chair is named in honor of arguably the most Marian pope of all time.

“The Mariological genius of St. John Paul II provides us with a depth and breadth of theological insights regarding Our Lady, which the Church will be pondering for decades to come, and beyond. His papal motto, Totus Tuus, (entirely yours), which comes from the St. Louis de Monfort consecration prayer to Mary, conveys the quintessential unity of truth and love of Our Lady in an intimate, devotional way and of how Mary leads us to her son, Jesus,” said Miravalle.

A “funded chair,” the St. John Paul II Chair of Mariology received financial support for an initial four-year period by the Zita and James Gavin Foundation, which supports Catholic and Marian-related activities.

“This is a rare and generous gift, for which the University is extremely grateful,” said Kempton.

Founded in 1946 by the Franciscan Friars of the Third Order Regular, Franciscan University of Steubenville, Ohio, offers associate, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees in 70 programs of study including liberal arts, professional, and pre-professional studies in an academically excellent and passionately Catholic learning environment.

 

Spot on yet again Julia!! The vitriol in this thread and specially on THIS forum is unbecoming of the followers of Christ. Very UN-Christian to say the least!!

Look at what you're arguing about..someones academic credentials? Are you kidding?There were plenty of well heeled and well educated saints for sure, but I bet there were even more( including the first apostles who were lowly, hard working totally uneducated men and women). Someones academic background means nothing in the Heavenly realm!

My suggestion is to "knock it off"! You're just making your self look bad.

Seems like Julia and I are of the same mind set. I wont speak for her but... I think ( my opinion here) that this entire brou ha ha is a totally unnecessary endeavor!!!! In the end no one knows FOR SURE whether any of these seers messages/teachings are from heaven or from hell ...or even a mixture of both( even the great saints had bouts w the devil)!!!

Therefore..IMHO... why not take the easy way out of this "battle" and do what I do.. save your self an ulcer.. and PUNT!

I have been able to keep my sensibilities at a calm level about such mystical matters because I dont take one side or the other.I read ALL of the information given by said seers and let the Holy Spirit guide me. I usually come away with no opinion at all!

Its like I have a "little bag" next to my computer and everything I see,read or hear about a particular seer..I put into the bag as just one more bit of information on this or that seer.

I read both Dr Miravalles article AND Daniel O'Conners article and put both of them in Fr Michels bag

PEACE!!

 

Ellen, your thoughts are worthy. However, sometimes, we have the duty to respond when on a forum such as this.

 

You're right HH.WE should and can respond,but its a matter of HOW we respond!!

 

Exactly, HH.
