St Paul's miraculous power, along with his followers' use of 3rd class relics

St. Paul's writings have been used by millions of ... let us politely say ... anti-Catholics, to justify living the life of laziness & selectively retained immoralities.  According to them, St. Paul said that you can do whatever you want and go to Heaven anyway, as long as you proclaim belief in a certain Nazarene whose name has been repeatedly used in vain, on modern movie screens.  

Newsflash:  This just in ===> The exact same St Paul wrote exactly the opposite.  

Example #1:

                  Do you not know that the unjust will not inherit the kingdom of God? 

                 Do not be deceived; neither fornicators  nor idolaters   nor adulterers 

          nor boy prostitutes  nor sodomites  nor thieves  nor the greedy  nor drunkards 

                        nor slanderers  nor robbers will inherit the kingdom of God. --- 1 Cor. 6:9

Let it be repeated.  St Paul, the disciplined & self-controlled aesthetic, NEVER wrote that you can commit all the sins you want and still go to Heaven, so long as you express belief in the miraculous Nazarene who was crucified by Roman soldiers.  Yet, an entire religion that kept splintering into "denominations" was founded upon that one premise.  Concerning this overly audacious Biblical interpretation, when Paul wrote that he no longer followed the law, he was referring to the Law of Moses and its many rituals which included animal sacrifice.  He was NOT referring to the moral law.  In fact, he also wrote:

              Now the works of the flesh are obvious:  immorality,  impurity,  licentiousness, 

         idolatry,  sorcery,  hatreds,  rivalry,  jealousy,  outbursts of fury,  acts of selfishness, 

            dissensions,  factions,  occasions of envy,  drinking bouts,  orgies,  and the like.

                    I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things 

                                             will not inherit the kingdom of God.  ---  Galatians, 5:19

Equally important is that Romans 3:28 did NOT state that "Faith alone suffices."  The less than diplomatic Martin Luther added the word, "alone," changing the entire meaning of St. Paul's mission & ministry.  Martin Luther dedicated his beer-drinking (ale-drinking) years to promoting the Sin of Presumption --- the sin of presuming God's mercy. 

Yet today, all of the modern Protestant Bibles omit the "Luther translation," having published instead the Koine Greek version of Romans 3:28 that actually was written by Paul.  That scriptural passage simply stated that a person is justified by having  Faith in the Jewish Messiah of Nazareth without needing to perform the rituals of the Jewish Law of Moses which included animal sacrifice.  The actual translation is:

 For we consider that a person is justified by faith apart from works of the law.  Does God belong to Jews alone?  Does he not belong to Gentiles, too?  Yes, also to Gentiles, for God is one and will justify the circumcised on the basis of faith and the uncircumcised through faith.  --- Romans 3:28

In electing to revert to fidelity in the Koine Greek version of Romans 3:28, Protestant denominations elected to delete Protestantism's thesis statement.  They deleted Protestantism's raison d'etre.  This is tragically ironic, in light of the wars & killings which could have been prevented --- highlighted in the 30 Years War and in Cromwell's genocide of Irish Catholics, as well as in the severely emotional anti-Catholicism of 19th & early 20th Century America.

There is the need of millions of people to quit making a mockery out of Saint Paul's epistles.  Moreover, there is a canonized saint of recent decades who converted from Protestantism.  He famously stated that, the deeper you delve into history, the further you remove yourself from Protestantism.   The exact quote was, "To be deep in history is to cease being Protestant."  His name is John Henry Newman.  All in all, St. Paul ... and Elizabeth Ann Seton ... as well as John Henry Newman ... should be the patron saints of Protestant conversions.  That will work ... really well.

In order to rationalize its existence, Protestantism performed selective amnesia in discarding 1,100+ years of Church history ...  all deleted from the Protestant memory, being that there was no Protestantism on any scene for the first 1,450 years of Christianity.  Protestantism will acknowledge Christianity up to the time of the FIRST Council of Nicaea, in 325 C.E; but not the SECOND Council of Nicaea, in 787.  After the Year 325 comes the amnesia blackout in the mind of Protestantism.

Martin Luther wasn't born until 1,450+ years after the original Pentecost Sunday, when Peter first spoke publicly in the name of Christ.  According to Protestantism, God the Holy Spirit is a liar who was not guiding the believers of Christ for 1450 years.  According to Protestantism, Martin Luther is the Vicar of the Holy Spirit who finally brought the Holy Spirit to mankind.  Protestantism denies the reality of the very sacraments which divert souls from spiritual death and which give souls purpose for being.  Protestantism is the Big Blackout, in several ways.

Now, Protestantism got its beginning by . . . stealing massive amounts of Roman Catholic Church property, in places where they could get away with it . . . and by killing Roman Catholics by the truckload, in places where they could get away with it.  Now, is that any way to start a religion?  Is that any way to start anything?   None the less, Protestantism was largely a geopolitical movement with occasionally unseemly (unexpected allies.)  This meant that Protestantism was a political party.  Then, out of it came religious fanaticism.

All in all, there was NO REFORMATION in the 1500s.  There are only Theft & Murder back then .... and defamation; lots of defamation.  That which was called the Reformation was actually the Great Defamation ... even the defaming of God, in claiming that the Holy Spirit was a liar and a bumbling failure who didn't guide the Church for 1450 years --- in claiming that the Holy Spirit was such a failure that the German ale drinker, Martin Luther, had to replace the Holy Spirit.  

Yeah,  Martin Luther was going to show the Holy Spirit who was boss.  Guess where Martin Luther is at this very moment.  Did you ever study exorcism transcripts?  His name came up, when a possessing devil was ordered by the exorcist to give his name ... to the exorcist, during a 19th Century exorcism.  For the record, damned humans have the capability of possessing a living person as much as a demon.  A demon is a fallen angel.   A devil is a damned human.

Martin Luther died a sudden death (at the age of 62).  He died without the Sacraments of the Church.  He rejected the Sacraments of the Church.  Do the math, here. 

Let us now address the miraculous power of Saint Paul which was somehow transmitted into linens and aprons whenever they touched St. Paul, himself.   Acts 19: 11-12 reads as follows:

                              So extraordinary were the mighty deeds which God accomplished 

                             at the hands of PAUL that, when facial cloths or aprons that 

                            touched his skin were applied to the sick, their diseases left 

                           them and the evil spirits came out of them. 

Now, Acts 19 describes the valid & successful use of Third Class Relics -- or third degree relics.  Such relics are pieces of cloth or other physical items such as paper that are touched to an actual living saint or to the bodily remains of a saint who has already gone into eternity.   

Of course, the Church never declares any living being a saint.  None the less, people in the Church, on occasion, were known for miraculous results to their interactions with others.  It doesn't happen everyday, but it did happen in the very turbulent history of the true church of Christ ... as opposed to a "knock-off" church produced by Henry Tudor, his less-than-friendly daughter, Martin Luther & the politically motivated Elector of Saxony, the Swiss John Calvin, and more recent names who became associated with mass suicide and/or gun battles with federal agents.

Of course, a person who identifies himself as "a born-again Christian" or a Baptist or a Fundamentalist or someone "saved" would call the use of relics the ritualistic act of idolatry.   Well, to declare this is to declare St. Paul a ritualistic idolater.  In fact, it's to call the New Testament ritualistic idolatry.  This is because the use of third-class relics were used to spread Saint Paul's miraculous power.  Therefore, relics are Biblical.  The Catholic tradition of employing saints' relics traces itself back to St. Paul's followers.

The Old Testament gives at least one instance of a miracle involving a First Class Relic --- or first degree relic.  That type of relic is the actual saint, himself; as in a bone fragment, etc.  In the Second Book of Kings, a miracle occurred when a corpse was thrown into the grave of Elijah's prime student and spiritual heir, Elisha. 

2 Kings  13:21

 Once some people were burying a man, when suddenly they saw such a raiding band.  So they cast the man into the grave of Elisha, and everyone went off.  But when the man came in contact with the bones of Elisha, he came back to life and got to his feet.

 Thus, miracles done upon contacting a first class relic IS very Biblical.  So, if you are no-no on relics, then you are also no-no on the Bible, probably unbeknownst to you ... until now.  Now, concerning the Cloak of Elijah:

2 Kings 2:14: 

Wielding the mantle which had fallen from Elijah, he struck the water and said, “The LORD, the God of Elijah—where is he now?”   He struck the water.  It divided, and he crossed over.   Elijah's prime student did this with Elijah's cloak, so stated for the record.

Elijah's Cloak was a Second Class Relic.  A second-class relic is a former physical possession of a saint.  Examples are a writing quill, a walking cane, a favorite chair, an article of clothing, and Elijah's Cloak.   With this comes the conversation of metaphysical power which can be a lengthy topic.  HOWEVER, all angels have a METAPHYSICAL attachment to physical creation, and they perhaps come into the relic schematic, in matters involving second-class relics effecting miracles.

 Of course, Catholics understand that not everything is in the Bible, being that St. John wrote this into his Gospel.  Plus, Paul told his followers to also observe that which he taught them verbally, in addition to whatever written teachings were sent to them.  Verbal teaching is usually called, TRADITION.

Tradition comes from none other than the Latin, TRADITIONEM.  It means to deliver across something ... to hand-over ... to hand down.   The Greek equivalent is parádosi̱ which actually means to surrender something to others. 

2 Thessalonians 2:15

                       Therefore, brothers, stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that

                 you were taught, either by an ORAL STATEMENT or by a letter of ours.

                *************************************************************

Thus, TRADITION --- church teaching that comes from outside of the Bible ---  is Biblical, ironically enough.  The Bible is NOT God.  It's a testimonial to the existence of God and to the mindset of God.  Mindset is understood to be the same as "personality."  Moreover, the Law of God and the Will of God are the exact same thing.  To claim that "everything is in the Bible," is the sin of  IDOLATRY.  It's the worship of the Bible, instead of God.

Moreover, being that God is so infinitely massive, the task of being God cannot be accomplished by merely one person.  It takes three infinite persons to accomplish the mission of being God ... literally.  In as much, in order for God to exist, God can only exist as a multiplicity of Three Individual Persons who share the exact same essence and nature.

Also see: http://www.theheartofmary.com/2011/08/comparing-holy-trinity-to-song.html

While we're still here, let's address the claim that it's a sin to call a priest, "father."  After all, Jesus did say to call no one your father, but God the Father.  Well, the Catholic Church does recognize God the Father to be the Unmoved Mover ... and the Uncatalyzed Catalyst ... who authored life and wrote the blueprint of the only Church ever founded by his only Begotten Son.  The use of the name, father, as it applies to priests, has a lesser meaning of the word.  And that practice came from St. Paul, himself.   In the FIRST Letter to the Thessalonians, Chapter 2, verses 10 to 12, Saint Paul wrote:

                               You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly,  justly,                                                                       and blamelessly we behaved toward you believers.

              As you know, we treated each one of you as a FATHER treats his children,  

            exhorting and encouraging you, while insisting that you conduct yourselves 

                      as worthy of the God who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

 

The conclusion is that calling a priest "Father" IS BIBLICAL.  Case Closed.  Catholic haters lose.  The bottom line is that some people think that they know the mind of God & the Will of God, when the fact is that they are clueless.  Concerning people who don't read the Bible at all, they are more talented at insulting a person's intelligence.  Each example of this would be an article of its own.  

 

None the less, the aforementioned shows --- at face value --- that the Biblical Paul --- the author of multiple epistles --- had a significant influence upon the ordinary practices of the Catholic Church.  Catholic haters are not willing to admit this.  The Catholic Church was the first Christianity.  It will be the last Christianity, also.

 

C'est tout, pour maintenant.

The reason why God can only exist as a Trinity

Understanding the mystery of the Trinity with our finite
 minds is like trying to put an ocean into a beach pail.

How do you begin to write about someone who has no beginning?

Very simply, you enter into the midst of the person's being and describe the

activity occurring in the present tense.  That which is currently transpiring in

the Eternal God is that which has been occurring forever.

In eternity, there has always been one person with neither a beginning nor an

end who has been generating forth from his own essence an action which in-

cludes, but is not limited to, Charity.  (Note:  I don't use the word, love, when

speaking of spirituality, being that, in today's society, love is equated with Eros;

the erotic.)

This one person is the first infinite person of existence;  the first person of the

Holy Trinity.  Translated into human language, that which is spiritually being

spoken from this person is, "Let there be light."  So, what is this light?  This

light is every virtue in existence occurring simultaneously.

This endless action includes, but is not limited to, Charity, is:

1] an act of will ------ as opposed to uncontrolled motions, imposed by an

                                   inanimate force.

2] an act of desire --- where the desire was first inspired by the one desired.

3] an act of consent - liberating the desire to the point of transforming it into

                                   a living reality.

4] an act of power --- enabling the desire to be fulfilled in reality and actuality.

5] a command -------- testifying to the necessity of having the power liberated.

6] a way of being ---- living out that which is commissioned in the command.

7]  transformative --- in being a Charity (an Agape) so impactful that it makes

                                   you never the same again.

What is power?   ANS: Power is the ability to make things happen and to get

                            things accomplished.  Those governed must have the power

                            to abide by the command of the one in power, or the one

                            making the command will be powerless.  Thus, the second

                            infinite person of all existence already needed the power to

                            respond to that which the first infinite person generated to

                            him.  That power had within itself the power to inspire the

                            first infinite person of existence to generate his spiration of

                            Divine Charity and all other virtue, in the first.

 In light of this reality, as the way of God's being reflectively translates into

human life, power per se is NOT a trickle-down Reaganomics affect.  Rather,

power is something reciprocal.  Proof that even human power is reciprocal ex-

ists in the revolutions that plagued humanity throughout history, most of which

were triggered by the injustices of those in power.

                            In like fashion, the second infinite person of existence needed

                            the power to respond to that which the first person generated

                            to him.

In as much, a virtue is the power to let Being perpetuate forever.  The possession

of a virtue is the possession of a power that prevents the occurrence of nothing-

ness; that prevents the negation of being.  All in all virtue is a power that pre-

vents privation.   It prevents one from committing acts which lead to spiritual

death.  Thus, if God ever sinned, God would stop existing.

The first endless person of all existence has always had the power to keep his

own essence in perpetual existence.  This is known as being self-efficient.

This means that God is non-causative.  Nothing outside of God caused God

to be.

Concerning God's power, it's the power of existence which is equal to the

power to be forever free from the danger of entering into nothingness.  In

as much, God is properly described as He Who Is and  I AM - the one in

whom there is 1] the absence of nothingness, 2] the complete absence of

inaminateness,  3] the absence of frivolous vanity and pointlessness.

In God, there are neither any lapses of consciousness nor blind-spottedness.

Being that there is no pointlessness in God, there has to have always been

a reason for the first infinite person of all existence to have been radiating

forth his spiration of all virtue, in the first.  There had to have originally

been a reason for God to exist, being that God's existence was no accident.

God's existence is not happenstance.  He was motivated to exist and spirate

every virtue in existence.  Without the first infinite person's Reason for Be-

ing, the first infinite person of existence wouldn't have had any reason to

exist, and therefore, he would not exist.  Neither would we.

God's Reason for Being

The reason d'etre of the first person of all existence is none other than another

infinite person of all existence who has existed eternally, also.  In the infinite

spacelessness of eternity, this second infinite person is the one who consents

in the virtues that exude from the first infinite person.

The decisive truth in the second infinite person of existence is that he was the

one who inspired the first person to spirate virtue in the first place.  He inspired

the first infinite person to be.  Thus, the second infinite person of existence had

power; the power to inspire the first infinite person to be.  This teaches us that

power is reciprocal.  The power of the first infinite person is therefore equal to

the power of the second infinite person of existence.

Without the second infinite person of existence to inspire the first infinite person,

there would be no infinite person spirating forth any virtue, especially in light of

the fact that there must be a second person in existence to receive the simultane-

ous spirations.  This means that the Second Person of the Holy Trinity is not sub-

servient to the first person.  Father and Son are equal in power, as well as essence.

The Divine Chorus

The most proper human name for the first person of all existence would be none

other than God the Father, aka the Eternal Father; the one who initiated the spira-

tion of Charity and all other virtues..  In as much, the most proper human title to

give the second infinite person of existence is God the Son.  This is because all

that is the Father has been generated to the second infinite person of existence.

The second person inherited the Eternal Father's divinity and infinite virtue.

The second person is the sole heir to all which is the Eternal Father.  They

have the exact same spiritual DNA.  The second person then can generate

that which his father sent to him, making him a spiritual father, as opposed

to spiritual mother.  He is a son who can perform the generating acts of a

spiritual father, as opposed to being a daughter who radiates virtue but does

not generate it.

From all eternity, in his consolidated infinite action, the Eternal Father has been

saying, "Let there be light."  God the Son simultaneously responds by saying,

"So be it."  God the Son requites every current of charity and virtue generated

by the Eternal Father back to the same Eternal Father.

Now, the synonym for So-be-it is Amen.  In the Book of Revelations, John the

Apostle records a vision that he had of the Second Person of the Trinity.  In that

vision the second person describes himself as the Great Amen.  After all, he is

the one who, in eternity, said so-be-it to the command, "let there be light."  He

simultaneously let the Will of the first infinite person of existence be fulfilled

in him.

More specifically, the second person of existence requites the charity that the

first person sends him.  In the process, both persons infinitely go through a

transformation which is complete, but eternal.  That is to say,  they are not

presently being transformed.  Rather, they have already been transformed

and are radiating the currents of accomplished transformation.

One God, One Reason for Being

Moreover, being that God is one, there is only one reason for God to have

been inspired enough to exist in the first place.  This reason for God's being

is the second infinite person of all existence.

The Third Infinite Person of all Existence

Even the virtues that are being generate from God comprise a living being.

Firstly, in God their is no lifelessness.  Even God's thoughts are alive in one

being.  The virtues which generate from God the Father and God the Son

are alive.  This is the Holy Spirit.  Properly speaking, the Holy Spirit is the

sum total of every virtue in existence being exchanged being the Father and

the Son.

In light of this, it is not as proper to state that God loves you as much as God

is Charity itself.  In sequence,  God is not merely faithful, as much as God is

fidelity itself.  Therefore, God is Truth & Kindness, endless innocence &

eternal heroism, along with infinite prudence and uncreated wisdom.  God

is also humility, fortitude, temperance, generosity, meekness, and mercy.

All in all, God did not create angels and mankind out of loneliness.  Rather,

God created angels and mankind out of generosity.

The Hail Mary & Marian devotion are definitely Biblical, found at the beginning of Luke's gospel, as well as existing throughout tradition.

"Henceforth, all generations will call me blessed, because he who is mighty has done great things for me and holy is his name."   Luke 1:48 - 1:49  (Marian Devotion fulfills this Biblical prophecy.)

Perhaps you know the thought process of those who follow TV preachers clad in business suits.  They claim that praying the Hail Mary is pagan idolatry, especially when done in front of a statue of Mary.  They claim that Marian Devotion [1] detracts from Jesus ... that it [2] robs Christ of the attention due to him ... that it [3] draws people away from Jesus, making him a stranger to mankind.  Do you see the supreme asininity in that claim?  

Take Note:

To start, the Hail Mary comes directly from the Bible itself, in the Gospel of Luke ... at the very beginning of it.  Things derived directly from the Bible cannot possibly be pagan idolatry.  Next:

The most common Marian devotion is the Rosary.  It was originally called, the Angelic Psalter.  The Rosary consists in praying the Hail Mary several times in succession, while simultaneously meditating on specific events involving Jesus Christ. 

The Hail Mary takes about 20 seconds to pray, unless if you're a contemplative, upon which it would take you about 35 to 45 seconds to complete.  Well, at the eight second mark, a person praying the Hail Mary states (either verbally or silently)  ...  "blessed is the fruit of your womb," Luke 1:42, with the word, Jesus, added to the prayer.

Now, the Rosary consists in calling Jesus blessed every 20 to 35 seconds, time after time.  How could a devotion which repeatedly calls Jesus blessed be one that detracts from Jesus?  How could a devotion that consists in a person reflecting on the Incarnation, Life, Sufferings, Death, Resurrection, and Ascension of Jesus Christ detract from Christ?  Hello?  Is anybody home here?

The Centering Prayer

In addition, being that the name of Jesus is blessed by the Rosary devotee every 20 to 35 seconds during Rosary prayer, this means that within the Rosary is the CENTERING PRAYER that was done by contemplative monks in ages past.  They simply repeated the name Jesus, within spaces of time, to keep focused.  So, while you are praying the Rosary, you are simultaneously doing the Centering Prayer.

The Our Father, too

The meditation of each mystery of the Rosary actually begins with the Our Father, taught by Jesus, himself.  So, how does observing the formula for prayer that was taught by Jesus detract from Jesus, especially when it's immediately followed by calling Jesus blessed, every 20 to 35 seconds?  In fact, as soon as you pray the Our Father, you are acknowledging Jesus as your "teacher."  Therefore, praying the Rosary consists in the devotee calling Jesus the blessed teacher --- or blessed rabbi.  Now, how does this constitute pagan idolatry that detracts from Jesus?

One more thing about the Hail Mary:  

The opening words of it are the words of God the Father, himself, spoken through the Archangel Gabriel.  This is why the Hail Mary was originally called, the Angelic Salutation.  In as much, to have an aversion to the Hail Mary is to have an aversion to the Will of God the Father, as was announced by an archangel.

Concerning the translation of "full of grace" in the Gospel of Luke, it comes from the common citizen's Greek.  It is translated from KECHARITOMENE, and it refers to someone who has been completely graced and who remains in the process of being graced.  It's like a flowing river which continues to get water from its tributary water sources.  In Mary's case, the tributaries flowing into her are the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  So, the Hail Mary Prayer should actually be, "Hail Mary, fully graced, the Lord is with you." 

People who condemn the Rosary have one thing in common

They're lazy.  It's that simplex.  The Rosary requires a person to state verbal prayer, at least in silence, while simultaneously meditating on an aspect of Christ and the Holy Spirit.  They literally have trouble doing both types of prayer at the same time.  So, instead of being honest about their lack of concentration, they condemn the Rosary.  It's a lazy man's way of getting out of work. 

Now, if you have trouble combining verbal prayer with meditation, simply pray one Our Father and One Hail Mary, and then meditate on at least one of the "mysteries" of the Rosary.   Each mystery is basically an event.  One is a repeated event, concerning one thing Christ said.  The other mysteries are all single events.  

There are the Joyous, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious mysteries.  Other mysteries not yet mentioned in this discourse include [1] Christ's baptism at the hands of his cousin, John ... [2] the Wedding Feast of Cana ... [3] Christ stating a couple times, in different places, that the "Kingdom of God is at hand"... [4] the Transfiguration, etc.  

Now, meditating on those events should be within your capabilities, even if only for a short while.  One Our Father and one Hail Mary will only take a minute and a half ... or even less time.  Easy to do ... unless if you are pathologically lazy.  If you're pathologically lazy, then you are also an impatient person.  If you're an impatient person, you also have a violent streak within you.  You need the Rosary all the more.

John the Baptist is a pivotal feature in Marian Devotion

Now, the words, "blessed is the fruit of your womb," were spoken by Mary's cousin, Elizabeth, after Elizabeth was "filled with the Holy Spirit."  Thus, to hate the Hail Mary is to also hate the inspiration of the Holy Spirit --- or to be jealous of Elizabeth for getting it 2,000 years before you were even born.

Incidentally, Saint Elizabeth was the mother of John the Baptist, and the Visitation involves Mary visiting Elizabeth, when both women were pregnant.  Elizabeth had a three month head start.

Now, the central mystery of the Visitation was that, as soon as Mary greeted Elizabeth, John the (Future) Baptist was rendered into the State of Grace.  In being rendered into the state of grace, he immediately recognized Christ within Mary, and he leapt for joy.  Ironically, it was Christ who rendered him in the state of grace, in the first place.  And Mary was there, front & center, like the miraculous Ark of the Covenant, literally carrying Christ.

John the (Future) Baptist was not conceived in the state of grace, as was Mary.  But, he was born in the state of grace.  Therefore, the Second Joyous Mystery, namely the Visitation, is the Mystery of John the Baptist.  And being that John the Baptist was the prophet commissioned to herald the arrival of the long-awaited Messiah, meditating on John will NOT detract from Christ.  It will enhance your understanding of Christ, all the more.  In fact, having John as your intercessor, praying for you, only makes you all the more protected from the servants of Lies & Violence.

By the way, being that John the Baptist was rendered into the State of Grace as a pre-born infant, he is proof that infant baptism is completely valid.  The Anabaptists, aka the Baptists, aka the Born-again "Christians," long since claimed that infant baptism is invalid.  St Luke says that they were & are hellishly wrong ... as usual.   Next issue . . .

Mary walks into Elizabeth's dwelling and speaks.  Immediately, John the Future Baptist is rendered in the State of Grace, upon the sound of Mary's voice.  What does this illustrate?   

ANS:  It illustrates that Mary is the Mediatrix of Grace ... as opposed to the mediator of the expiation of sin --- as opposed to the mediator of atonement.  Christ, himself, is the sacrificial lamb whose blood washes away sin.  Only the Eternal God could do that task, after having been made man.  However, the Blood of Christ came from the blood of Mary.  Yet, concerning those two circulatory systems, only Christ's blood was divine ... literally divine.

In review, to be the mediatrix of those graces which come from the Holy Spirit is something altogether different than to be the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.  So, cool it with the "idolatry" accusations.  It's just that the Virgin Mary walks into a dwelling, speaks, and voila; a child is rendered into the state of grace and leaps for joy.  That's power, and that power was & is a Grace from God.  

Very simply, Mary is the treasurer of the Grace of God.  Jesus' act of redemption is what unlocked the treasure chest ... the bank vault of grace ... the front doors of the Spiritual Fort Knox.   So, instead of regarding Mary as the Queen of Heaven, it is more proper to regard her as the Treasurer of Heaven. 

More specifically, due to the sacrifice of Christ, God the Holy Spirit was empowered to bestow upon Mary a treasury of graces.  Those graces became her possessions.  And a person may do with her possessions as she wills.  So, she shares her graces to others, in the millions ... the hundred millions ... even in the billions.   However, asking for the graces is required.  Graces aren't haphazardly strewn about, by her.

In review, by means of Christ's sacrifice, God gave Mary a wealth of graces.  She does with those graces as she pleases.  She explained this in Paris, in 1830, via a supernatural event endowed upon the incorruptible saint, Catherine Laboure.  This was also explained in Naples, during a supernatural event in 1884.  See:  Rue de Bac apparitions, 1830 & 54 day novena apparition of 1884.

The bottom line is that the Rosary enhances awareness of the presence of Christ, the charism of Christ, the personality of Christ, the mission of Christ, and the commitment of Christ.  Thus, the Rosary instills hope in Christ.   So, how does the Rosary detract from Christ, again? 

In summary, devotion to the Rosary is the act of joining Mary in being a fellow-follower of Jesus Christ.  She happens to be the most insightful follower --- the most powerful follower.  Jesus & Mary, as well as John the Baptist, can easily finish each other's sentences.  In fact, when St. John leapt for joy in the womb of his mother, he was literally finishing Mary's sentence, when she was greeting Elizabeth.

Sometimes praying the Rosary is like having a consultation with Mary.  At other times, it's like performing an inspection of the spiritual world.  At other times, it's like standing in front of a Ferris Wheel, and getting swooped-up in one of the seats.  

Prayer is the act of reaching out to God.  Heaven then reaches back to you, extending graces to you.  An actual grace is basically an impulse upon your soul.  Sanctifying grace, on the other hand, is a constant state of being.  It's like spiritual oxygen.  Without it, you suffocate.

Call to mind the miraculous cloak of Elijah which was then inherited by Elisha.  Well, all Brown Scapulars are an extension of that cloak.  If you can explain Elijah's cloak, then you can explain the Brown Scapular.

In review, Sacred Scripture itself states, "Henceforth, all generations will call me blessed, because he who is mighty has done great things for me, and holy is his name."  Gospel of Luke, 1:48-49.  Therefore, if you do NOT call Mary blessed, then you are anti-biblical, anti-gospel, and anti-Christ, no matter how saved you arrogantly think you are.  After all, it was Christ who chose to become man in the Virgin Mary, and he was not required to first obtain the approval of Protestants to do so.  Thus, the truth posted below triggers outrage & seething hatred in the individuals who call themselves "saved:" 

 The blood of Christ came from the blood of Mary.  

In order for that to have happened, Mary needed to have already been pure.  The Second Person of the Holy Trinity was not going to inhabit a trash bin.  So, to deny Mary's purity is to deny that Christ came in the flesh and dwelt among us.  It's also to deny that Christ was pure, from Day 1.  All in all, to deny Mary is to simultaneously deny Christ ... and visa versa.  So, if you despise Mary, then you are less than a Big Nothing.  You're not even a Zero.  You're Negative Digits.

The Sin of Cooperation: We all go to Hell, together

Hell is filled with people who never thought they'd go there.

Rhetorical Question:  How many people in Nazi Germany thought themselves to have

been good, wholesome, and upstanding citizens contributing to the good of the Father-

land, when the fact was that they were being nothing more than criminal accomplices,

bringing the wrath of the allies upon them so badly that Germany would be turned in-

to a facsimile of the heavily cratered moon? 

As of New Year's 2014, the Obama administration remained vehement in getting Cath-

olic employers to violate Humanae Vitae, and supply for their employees that which is

taught in the Catholic faith as a sin of murder.  Now, people see that Oprah was wrong 

when she said that Obama was "the one."  People also see that he's not the Antichrist.                         None the less,  Obama's vice president picked up the baton of death and had his ad-                           ministration run with it.  Running with that baton is like running with a lit stick of                            dynamite.  Their political party has been the party of death for decades.

Concerning this, the Republican TEA party economy makes it difficult to raise a child.

Thus, the people who act all-so-self-righteous do more to tempt people into abortion

and artificial contraception than anyone else in America.  The hypocrisy is deafening.

Despite its platform that supports sins against justice, the Republican Party is the par-

ty of choice for American Catholics, simply because of the Democratic abortion plat-

form.  Today's American Catholics of financial influence are too cowardly and lazy

to start a much needed new political party.  Both major parties in America support

mortal sins that we are expected to support with our cooperation.  So, Catholics in

American get to go to Hell with the political hypocrites who are nothing more than

leeches vying for campaign re-election money which will make them cow-tow to

their funders' whims.  Thus, one will support abortion and the other will support

anti-immigration legislation, medical pricing gouging, sweatshop profiteering,

sins against ecology, military bankruptcy spending, and anti-disability legisla-

tion, as well as anything that antagonizes the moral theology of Distributive

Justice, as well as Economic Justice.

The first thing that must stop is the sin of defraudment of  laborers of their wages,

in the form of sweatshop imports, due to the enormous Trade Balance Deficit that

it caused, resulting in 5 million lost jobs and 60,000 lost manufacturing operations

in the United States.  This issue is as current as the riots in Cambodia, where ex-

tremely underpaid garment workers rioted and where police shot at them, killing

a few in the process.

Also, American income disparity among Americans must end.  Some workers in

the U.S. are so underpaid that the federal government must provide food stamps,

in order for them to go to work to make a few extremely wealthy.

Providing artificial contraceptives doesn't procure any kind of justice.  It merely

encourages sins against the 6th Commandment.

______________________________________________________________

The Nine Ways in Which One Can Be an Accessory to the Sins of Others

     1. By counsel.               2. By command.              3. By consent.

     4. By provocation.        5. By praise or flattery.    6. By concealment.

     7. By partaking.            8. By silence.                  9. By defense of the ill done.

         ______________________________________________________________

      The Sin of Cooperation is synonymous with the Sin of Accessory.  It's equally

       synonymous with being an accomplice to the sins of another.  There are many

       accomplices in Hell.  These were the ones who empowered dictators, pillage-

       minded war lords, price gougers, good ole boy networks, sweatshop profiteers,

       robber barons, and those who sought to legalize sins as deadly as intentional

       abortion.  These were the Yes Men of Evil, empowering the manipulators who

       would have gotten absolutely nothing accomplished without the cooperation of

       many.

       Of course, many of the many were accomplices, because they were cowards,

       if not in love with the evils that the manipulators sought to have legalized, in-

       stitutionalize, and accommodated.  Even those who did the manipulating were

       cowards, in that they had to leech off of the acts of others, in order to prevail

       in evil. 

       Most accomplices are cowards who succumbed to peer pressure.  You don't

       have to be one of them.  In fact, if you happen to claim that your sins are far

       too great to be forgiven, the fact that you're not dead and Hell is evidence that

       you're presently being carried by the Mercy of God.  Thus, your sins aren't too

       great to be forgiven, per se.  God is enduring them as you read.  Only you have

       the power to turn your sins into the unforgivable state, simply by pushing away

       the Holy Spirit, the forgiver of Sins.

       All in all, you would already be in Hell if your sins were unforgivable.  You are

       still able to take advantage of this mercy and then to start having mercy on God.

       A person has mercy on God by ceasing his/her mortal sins, and even by making

       reparation for the sins of others.  This includes the Sin of Cooperation.

       The ceasing of mortal sin is a grace from God.  You're always welcomed to ask

       such a grace ... no matter what you have done .... and you may always pray to

       Jesus.  In fact, in the Law of Grace, the greater be the sinner, the greatest is that

       person's right to mercy.  Christ paid dearly for your dose of mercy, ahead of time.

    I} Part 3, Section 1, Chapter 1, Article 8 of the Official Catholic Catechism states. 

        But no one is deemed to be ignorant of the principles of the moral law which

        are written in the conscience of every man. 

   II} Jesus was quoted in the Gospels as having said, "Those who deny me before

         men I will deny before my Father."  One can deny Christ by denying his

         commandments.

  III} As was mentioned in the Book of the Apocalypse, every damnation is a matter

         of being deceived by the Devil.  St. John exactly described the eternally damned

         as those who were deceived as such.  This deception consists in fanatics stripping

         away natural instinct from people, in an politically activist Orwellian way.

 IV} As was mentioned in the Book of James (4:17), one who knows the right thing

         to do, yet neglects to do it, sins.  Such as a thing is known as a Sin of Omission.

         It's also known as a Sin of Negligence.  In addition, Pius XII's edition of moral

         theology mentioned the existence of the Sin of Inconsiderateness. 

   V} As was stated in the Gospel of Luke (12:48), much will be required of the per-

         son entrusted with much.  Yet more will be demanded of the person entrusted

         with more.  Therefore, bishops are judged far more severely than the laity.

  VI} Vatican II expressly stated that the nature of the church on earth is militancy.

          In fact, the Baltimore Catechism and other catechisms identify the church on

         earth as the Church Militant.  This involves what St Paul referred to as fighting

         the good fight ... as is striving to have good prevail over evil.  To neglect this

         duty is to be immersed in sins of negligence, aka sins of omission.  To neglect

         this duty is to eventually be immersed in Hell, a place where one is disjointed

         for all eternity, while living the paradox of being one step behind eternity, in

         having no rhythm to his/her existence.

 VII} Pope Paul VI stated that, if you want peace you must work for justice.  This in-

         sight actually came from the Book of Isaiah, where Kindness begets Truth and

         fairness (justice) begets peace.  If you remain silent to injustice, cooperating with

         it all the while, you will have the same destiny as those who instigated and prolif-

         erated the injustices.  Such as were the cases with the citizens of Nazi Germany,

         Imperial Japan, and the racist Confederate South of the United States. 

     ========================================================

     The Children of Fatima saw a vision of Hell and were instantaneously terrified at it's

     sight.  St. Teresa of Avila saw a vision of Hell too, yet she said that it was her great-

     est gift, being that it served the function of a life-changing wake-up call.  Both Saint

     Teresa and the children of Fatima saw humans souls falling into Hell with the velocity

     of snowflakes.

                                               The Roll Call of Hell

There are numerous souls in Hell who found out too late that their fellow humans aren't

toys to abuse.  They simultaneously found out that God isn't a make-believe fairy tale.

The same souls found out that complying with the impulses of human conscience, as is

universally written in the human heart by the Eternal God, is not something optional.

The same eternally damned people learned far too late that morality is not a mere matter

of opinion, either.  To top off the Roll Call of the Eternally Damned are those who could

neither control their senses nor place their temperaments in check.

Fatima seer Jacinta Martos stated before her death, "Souls go to Hell for sins of the 

flesh more than any other reason."  In as much, according to St Benedict of Nursia,

the Father of Western Monasticism, the #1 goal in the True Catholic Way (and not the

impostor way) is that of conquering your cravings.  In as much, a person who occasion-

ally fasts on either water, herbal teas, vegetable broths, bread, or bland foods is a per-

son far more adaptable and far more giving than other people.  This is also a person

far more perceptive, wielding fortitude and self-control with much more prowess than

others.  Those who don't occasionally fast are numb in their perceptions and are easily

deceived.

       Mercy is only Bestowed upon those who Bestowed Mercy on Others

Shortly before WWII, Christ said to Blessed Faustina Kolwaska that a person must

perform one type of mercy or another in this life, in order to receive mercy from Christ

in the next one.  Thus, the merciless always go to Hell.

      The Sin of Presumption is so Prevalent that it Screeches throughout Hell

Within the Roll Call of Hell are also those who lived the lie that their future sins were al-

ready forgiven and that God was "going to let them slide", because preachers told them

that they were "saved."  This belief is known as the sin of presumption, as in presuming

that God's mercy already resulted in the remission of sin.  In fact, presumption is nothing

more than laziness.  The fact is the Christ came to save his people from their sins.  If you

continue to engage in habitual mortal sin, then you've been saved from nothing. 

               Complying with Peer Pressure:  Another Sure Way to Hell

As was previously stated, also in endless torment are those who succumbed to peer

pressure and became guilty of the sin of cowardice.  In their cowardice, they became

merciless to someone whom they could have helped in life, but refused to assist, due to

their succumbing to peer pressure   These people usually say, "I was only following 

orders."   We proceed: 

________________________________________________________________

Mortal Sin:  It's Spiritual Suicide.  A Sinner:  It's a person who loves evil and then

transforms into the evil loved.  Those deepest in Hell are those most successful at hav-

ing gotten other people to cooperate with their sins.  Such a thing is always an element

of tyranny.  Tyranny is always lawlessness.

The sin of cooperation involves the phenomenon of Social Scandal, otherwise known as

Corporate Sin.  Now, corporate sin does not limit itself to cooperating with the sins of

corporate executives.  Corporate means body, and a corporate sin is any sin that ends

up being permeated throughout all of a body politic.  It's one that is legalized, institution-

alized, and accommodated in society.  The Chattel Slavery of the American Confederate

South is an example of a social sin, as is the mass murder of  Gypsies, Jews, the mentally

impaired, the physically disabled, and dissident journalists under Nazi German rule.

Other examples include Oliver Cromwell's persecution of Irish Catholics, the apartheid

of South Africa, Japan's rape of Nanking, Mao's persecution of the Tibetan culture, and

of course, the labor camp system of modern China that resulted in workers committing

suicide, threatening suicide, etc.  Add to this the legalized form of adultery known as di-

vorce and remarriage, other forms of sexual anarchy, elective abortion, the desecration

of Sunday in heavily christened populations, other forms of sins against ecology, and the

various types of price gouging.

To cooperate with a corporate sin is to accommodate and institutionalize a sin as if it

were a civil right.  To cooperate with social scandal is to act as if accommodating it is

a duty to God.  Such cooperation occurs in the workplace, as one's job description. 

The Sin of Cooperation, as it Applies to the Message of Fatima

The Sin of Cooperation was the essence of the Fatima message, in as far as concerned

a statement Sr. Lucia was once quoted as having allegedly said.  This quote came years

before Bertone and Sodano took seats of power at the Vatican and decided to revise

the entire Fatima message to their convenience.  Therefore, the pre-Sodano quote has

an element of reliability and credibility attached to it.  Sr. Lucia Martos was once quot-

ed as having said, "We'll either be damned together or we'll be saved together."

In as much, being damned together consists in being an accomplice to each other's sins.

The Sin of Cowardice

In order to understand how the sin of cooperation operates in the human mind, consider

the following rhetorical question:  How many citizens of the Nazi regime regarded them-

selves as good, wholesome, and upstanding citizens faithfully upholding the Fatherland,

when in reality, they were provoking the destruction that was soon to be hurled upon the

sum total of Germany, by the allied forces and the underground saboteurs?

As was previously mentioned, you need to understand that all occasions of damnation

consist in being deceived by the Devil.  In the Book of the Apocalypse, St. John refers

to the Eternally Damned in this way.  In as much, consider how many violent practices

occurred under the guise of being the new enlightenment ... a new dawning ... the new

Springtime.  For example, Christians died as a result of the Arabian Spring of 2011.  In

Nazi Germany, Crystal Night was a collective crime.  Yet, it was seen as the cleansing

of Germany.  It was the opposite thereof.

The same Book of Revelations (the Apocalypse) mentions that cowardice is a sin,

at its 21st Chapter:  Now, as for cowards, the unfaithful, the depraved, murder-

ers, the unchaste, sorcerers, idol-worshipers, and deceivers of every sort, their

lot is in the burning pool of fire and sulfur, which is the second death. (verse 8) 

Incidentally, being frightened to death doesn't make you a coward.  Running away

when you are needed does.  In fact, as is seen in certain pampered political opera-

tives, cowards can be bullies ... until they are put to the test.  Hell is for bullies,

none the less. 

Letting Evil Flourish is a Sin of Cooperation

It was stated in a recent century that the only reason why evils flourish is because

the good do nothing to stop them from spreading.  However, the moment when

you refuse to help stop an evil, it immediately turns you from good to evil.  Such

a thing is a sin of negligence.  Such a thing is a sin of omission.  This is cowardice.

Pontius Pilate's sin was a basically a sin of cowardice.  He cowardly succumbed

to envious religious leaders in Jerusalem who held a jeering mob on puppet strings,

despite the fact that, days earlier, the same people of Jerusalem were welcoming

Jesus in triumph, laying out a trail of palm branches for him.

Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer are not worth anyone's eternal damnation.  So,

why be their puppets, in their obsession with elective abortion?  Marcial Maciel

Degollado and his principle accomplice, Angelo Sodano, weren't worth eternal

damnation, either. So, why would Ratzinger have succumbed in being an accom-

plice to those two priests' sins?  Neither was Adolph Hitler worth damnation, as

if an entire nation should have followed him ... directly into Hell.  In fact, lazy

priests of recent decades who wanted all the commercial outlets to be opened

on Sunday (in regions where such a thing was unheard-of) aren't worth the

damnation, either.  So too is this the case with those who profit from foreign

sweatshop labor.  Why go to Hell for people locked in clinch-fist greed and

who have no intention to share their immorally acquired wealth with you?

Why cooperate with something that will send you to Hell forever? 

Delineating the Cooperation of Evil

There is Formal Cooperation and then there is Material Cooperation.  It's the

Formal Cooperation that incurs sin.  In this era of lax and pampered priests, it

is expected to find the majority of them giving an excuse for every form of co-

operation, including the Sin of Apostasy of Ancient Rome, when a Christian

was excommunicated for tossing incense into a pincer, in worship of the em-

peror, lest he be martyred for refusing to do so.  However, the Gospel  gives

a decisive example of cooperating with evil:  Pontius Pilate.  To him Jesus

said,  "The one who handed me over to you is the one with the greater sin."

Therefore, Christ didn't excuse Pilate.  He stated that Pilate was in the pro-

cess of committing a sin.

In reality, the Scribes and Pharisees were committing the greater sin in push-

ing Pilate to do their evil for them.  Pilate let himself be a puppet on the strings

of envious Scribes & Pharisees who wanted Jesus dead for ousting the

money-changers from the temple Herod had gotten people to rebuild.

Incidentally, the previous Gospel passage shows that the Protestant claim that

God sees all sin as the same is a complete lie.  Protestant after protestant stat-

ed that God sees no difference between murder and stealing a dollar from a

billionaire.  Well, there are varying degrees of sin, according to the Gospels.

In sequence, there are varying degrees of eternal damnation.  Likewise, there

are varying degrees of glory in Heaven.  However, the Protestant view of

Heaven is the Marxist Communist view, where everyone is the same pre-

dictable man in the gray flannel suit ... with the exception perhaps being

the stereotypical TV evangelist wearing a bad pompadour hairdo toupee. 

Concerning the sin of Cooperation

The one who initiates the sin is the "principle agent."  He is the one guilty of

the greater sin, but his formal cooperators are guilty of sin none the less.  Furth-

ermore, if the sin could not materially be committed without the cooperation of

you, and if you are an "immediate agent," you are in formal cooperation.  You

have sinned.  You're damnation will be as immediate if you have no intention

on changing things.

Sin begins in the heart, and not in the senses.  A person's intent can make the sin

of cooperation an act of formal cooperation.  After all, a sinner is a person who

loves evil.  Thus, if you love what is transpiring, no matter what your degree of

cooperation might be, then you are formally cooperating with the sin transpiring.

Official moral theology differentiates cooperators as those who are immediate

and those who are mediate.  Mediate cooperators are those situated somewhere

down the assembly line of the sin transpiring.  They are not front & center,

conducting a chorus of evil.

Consideration of the Sin of Cooperation is an exceptionally important matter.

This is the essence of the Fatima message, and it applies to one of the five

blasphemies against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.  The fifth blasphemy is

the act of dissuading children from embracing devotion to Mary and in seek-

ing to have people hold public contempt for her.  Such a blasphemer is act-

ively attempting to get children to be accomplices to his/her hatred of Mary.

Thus, he/she is the principle agent in this sin.

Incidentally, the Born-again 700 Club world held the most infernal hatred for

the Virgin Mary I have ever witnessed in my life, and it was the "church ladies"

who held the most seething contempt for her.  They were obviously envious of

Mary, as if they were the wicked step sisters and she were Cinderella.  Well, the

Virgin Mary is not a fairy tale.

The Sin of Cooperation is also paramount in the Nuremberg Trials.  Defendants

there continually pleaded that they were "just following orders."  This defense

was adjudged as no excuse for cooperating with the crimes of Nazi Germany.

The Sin of Cooperation was the end of Sodom.  It involved complete compliance

with one habitual sin.  All of the town, excecp for Lot's family, was contributory

to this sin.  This made it impossible for there to be ten just men in the city, so as

to assure that God would spare it, as he mentioned to Abraham in whatever type

of mystical dialogue the two entities communicated.

For those unfamiliar, the Old Testament states that God answered a series of ques-

tions that Abraham asked, with the final answer being that God would spare a city

from destruction if only ten just men lived in it.  With the Prophet Jeremiah, it was

merely one just man, when it came to Jerusalem.

When you are cooperating with a Corporate Sin, you are denying Christ before

men.  Now, God the Father only recognizes in a human the qualities that he re-

cognizes in his own son.  In as much, going to Hell consists in God and Christ

saying, "I don't know you."  Thus, all going to Hell consists in being deceived

by the Devil and becoming an entirely unrecognizable foreign entity to God

and the angels. 

The Alleged Vatican II Con Game

At the guest cottage of a Trappist Monastery, a monsignor who co-authored Unit-

ed States bishop statements told me that the Vatican policy at the time was this:

What the laity doesn't know won't hurt it.  Therefore, according to my Vatican-re-

lated source (during a Trappist Monastery conversation), John Paul II elected to

not speak out against certain Social Sins, because, if he did, the laity would be

bound by conscience to disassociate themselves with the social sins.  This would

logically mean that, as long as the laity would be kept in the dark about sins to

which they were cooperating, they would not guilty of the sins ... according to

the Vatican's mind set during the John Paul regime/tenure/administration/papacy.

Now, at the time, it was hard to believe that the Vatican would honor a policy that

perpetuated evil and kept the laity ignorant.  However, in the case of Maciel, Vati-

can bank scandals, and the widespread clergy abuse scandal, it was a plausible al-

legation, coming from a very articulate and relatively young monsignor.  This

particular monsignor was classy and not pretentious about it.

Now, John Paul II vaguely hinted on two known occasions about the sin of co-

operation.  But, he didn't have the laity take action to end such sin, in specificity.

The visiting monsignor made mention of material cooperation as if it were a loop-

hole that would spare the laity of eternal damnation.   The response to this is ob-

vious, even if the monsignor did not tell me the truth about the implied Vatican

policy:

The most famous scriptural passage concerning this is found at Hosea, at C. 4, V 6:

My people perish for want of knowledge!   Since you have rejected  knowledge, 

I will reject you from my priesthood.   Since you have ignored the law of your 

God, I will also ignore your sons.  One and all, they sin against me, exchang-

ing their glory for shame"

Plus, in a locution (a supernatural vision of words only) Christ spoke to Bless-

ed Alan of La Roche during a Mass, saying, "How can you crucify me again

so soon?  You  crucified me once before by your sins and I would willingly be

crucified again rather than have my Father offended by the sins you used to

commit.  You are crucifying me anew, because you have all of the learning

and understanding that you need to preach my mother's Rosary, yet you are

not doing so.  If you only did this, you could teach many souls that right path

and lead them away from sin  -  but you are not doing it and so,  you yourself

are guilty of the sins  that they commit."

The essence of the sin of cooperation is:  "You're guilty of the sins they commit."

Concerning the unconscionable entities in the present church, they will chirp out

that they are only in material cooperation with present evils, and therefore, are

justified in their cooperation with said evils.  Well, the first moment when you

know that an evil is transpiring, your conscience becomes placed on notice.

Unconscionable priests fail to realize that, at the very least, they are guilty of

cowardice and negligence, in declining to oppose the corporate sins in their

societies; those such as slave labor merchandise importation.

Plus, the material wrath of God will materially visit them, when the wrath is

launched.  Even those in material cooperation during the Nazi regime had the

bombs from British Lancasters hurl down upon them night after night after

night afer night.  In fact, it was not only those in formal cooperation with Im-

perial Japan's sins who found themselves immersed in the firestorm of Tokyo.

Those only in the state of material cooperation burned to death , too.

In discerning if a corporate sin involves the laity's formal cooperation of it, an-

swer the following:

1} Is the evil institutionalized to the point of being an habitual part of society,

     whereas it is accommodated and regarded as a civil right?  2} Is it possible

     to end the evil with societies' boycott of it?  3} Does the society know that

     it's occurring?

Society must make the effort to end any known corporate sin, or its people be-

come guilty of at least the sin of omission.  In their silence, the present bishops

have been engaged in sins of cooperation that will send the wrath of God rock-

eting throughout the societies where the corporate sins flourished.  The wrath

will consume the criminally negligent bishops who profiteered from sins to

which they remained silent.  They benefitted through tax-free collection bask-

et proceeds and through corporate donations.

People who make money through corporate sin sometimes toss a few dollars or

a check into an occasional collection basket.  For a priest to accept such money

is for him to accept blood money, especially when the money came from corpor-

ate entities who habitually suck the blood of severely underpaid sweatshop em-

ployees.  The vengeance of God will eventually be at each negligent priest's rec-

tory door step.

In the 1970's, the typical Gort Smith Arkansas seamstress made $14 an hour, ac-

cording to a payroll clerk who once worked there.  Recently, Latin American

women sewed various NFL jerseys for pennies per jersey.

You can attend church all you want.  But, if you go to a job that requires you to

be an accomplice to at least one mortal sin, you are living a lie.  You are the ser-

vant of mortal sin.  Sin therefore defines your income and Hell will be your final

paycheck.  In as much, there were specific reasons for the Virgin Mary's interven-

tion at Quito, La Salette, Fatima, and Akita.  Life isn't a joke.  There are serious

consequences in the end.

Do you really think that God will bless any home gotten through money made by

cooperating with a sin?  God gave no such blessing to the homes of Nazi Germany.

Instead, that nation was turned into a land of bomb craters and massive wreckage.

In similar fashion, God gave no such blessing to an Imperial Japan that was utterly

decimated by the Americans.  This included decimated homes purchased through

employee income that contributed to Imperial Japan's crimes.

Do not be deceived.  God is not mocked.  Neither mocked are those who were vic-

timized by the corporate sins to which you cooperated.  If you want peace, you

must first establish justice (fairness.)  The lack of justice yields the destiny of

damnation.  If you go to Hell, it means that you were a living Hell to others in

this life.  Not helping those who were victimized by your own sins of coopera-

tion made you a living Hell to those you refused to help.  As St. James wrote,

those who see good to be done and do not do it sin.  You can read all the kissy-

poo Vatican II devotional books you want.  If you don't cease your sin of co-

operation, all will be for naught.

There's an interesting thing about those who don't want to hear about Hell.  Hell

is an extremely loud place a person there hears forever.  Ironically, those who do

n't want to hear about Hell will hear it forever.  In fact, there is the type of person

who figures that his/her actions are not sins, simply because God didn't immediate-

ly hurl lightning bolts upon that person after the person committed sinful actions.

Such a person follows nothing more than animal instinct.

The lingering presence of elective abortion proves that all church leaders of recent

years were complete failures who refused to do what was necessary to end a sin that

cries to Heaven for vengeance.  Being that they are poor leaders, they should be re-

moved from office and replaced with people who won't be dead weights in the aisles

of the church.

Included in the list of corporate sin and social scandal is the commercial retail

desecration of Sunday in populations that were christened.  The sin of Sabbath

Desecration is a sin against ecology.  The sin of Sabbath Desecration is the main

issue in the message of La Salette  . . .  in the apparition which prophesied the

agricultural disasters of 19th Century Europe, as in the potato famine, the wheat

crop failures, and the grape crop failures.  The La Salette message applies to the

modern world as much as it applied to mid-Ninteenth Century Europe, because

God is changeless.  The God of the 19th

Century is the same God of today.

If you don't want to remain on modern society's death march to Hell, stop march-

ing in that direction.  After all, it's embarrassing to go to Hell on account of suc-

cumbing to peer pressure.  Nerd boys do that.  The La Salette article linked below

will help a bit.  However, if you're a innate coward, as in the type mentioned in St

John's Apocalypse, then nothing will help you at all, until you surgically remove

the propensity to cowardice.

A tip on doing so goes as follows:  We all get scared in similar situations.  Cowards

run, while the heroes go about their tasks, despite feeling intense dread.  Heroes have

an element of inspiration absent in cowards, and they don't have self-centered tunnel

vision.  Cowards only think of themselves.
