Q. A few
days ago I tried to notify you of my ISP change and consequently e-mail
address change as well. Since then I had no messages from you
whatsoever. I do wish to be on your member list.
Thank you for your help.
MOK
A. We have received all your mailings and the
change was made after the first notice was received from you. We have
mailed you directly several times regarding this issue but it seems
that your server is not delivering our mail to you.
We
suggest to you, and anyone else that may have this problem, to contact
their ISP/Server because it is up to them to make it possible.

Q. I went to
Reconciliation last Saturday and asked Father T "Is it still a
mortal sin to miss Mass on Sunday?" "Yes," he said "it is still
considered a mortal sin to miss Mass on Sunday unless you are
sick. "
So, I reason, if one misses Mass then one must go to Confession
(Reconciliation) and receive Our Lord's forgiveness.
Problem: Access to the Sacrament is becoming more and more problematic.
One parish where I attend - when I attend - has reduced availability of
the Sacrament to " thirty minutes before each Mass". (One of the
features I loved best about Reconciliation is the cool, quiet shaded
church on a Saturday afternoon when it's just my conscience and my
Jesus.)
But my main point here is to follow the logic of the following synopsis:
In order to
worthily receive The Holy Eucharist one must be free from mortal sin;
If one misses Mass then one needs to "go to
Confession";
If one does not go to Confession then what is
the point of attending Mass if one withholds oneself from the Eucharist
recognizing one's sin has not been removed
One week's missing Mass becomes two weeks, then a month and the ball
rolls downhill..
Yours In Christ
JM
A. First of all - you have given a perfect
example of how even the most devoted children of God are being pushed
away from the Sacraments by priests that should be instead drawing them
to God.
It
looks like "Father" T needs to learn a
thing of two
from St. John Bosco
and then... he should learn a thing or two about the Faith he claims to
uphold. Following is an excerpt from the Catechism, straight out from
the Vatican Site - give it him with our compliments!
1857 [2]
For a sin to be mortal, three
conditions
must together be met: "Mortal sin is sin whose object is grave matter
and which is also committed with full knowledge and deliberate consent."
1858 Grave matter is specified by the Ten
Commandments, corresponding to the answer of Jesus to the rich young
man: "Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear
false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and your mother." The
gravity of sins is more or less great: murder is graver than theft. One
must also take into account who is wronged: violence against parents is
in itself graver than violence against a stranger.
1859 Mortal sin requires full knowledge and
complete consent. It presupposes knowledge of the sinful character of
the act, of its opposition to God's law. It also implies a consent
sufficiently deliberate to be a personal choice. Feigned ignorance and
hardness of heart (133) do not diminish, but rather increase, the
voluntary character of a sin.
1860 Unintentional ignorance can diminish or
even remove the imputability of a grave offense. But no one is deemed
to be ignorant of the principles of the moral law, which are written in
the conscience of every man. The prompting of feelings and passions can
also diminish the voluntary and free character of the offense, as can
external pressures or pathological disorders. Sin committed through
malice, by deliberate choice of evil, is the gravest.
1864 "Whoever blasphemes against the Holy
Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin." There
are no limits to the mercy of God, but anyone who deliberately refuses
to accept his mercy by repenting, rejects the forgiveness of his sins
and the salvation offered by the Holy Spirit. Such hardness of heart
can lead to final impenitence and eternal loss.
1868
[3] Sin is a personal act. Moreover, we
have a responsibility for the sins committed by others when we
cooperate in them:
- by participating
directly and voluntarily in them;
- by ordering, advising, praising, or approving them;
- by not disclosing or not hindering them when we have an obligation to
do so;
- by protecting evil-doers.

Q. Dear Miguel,
just wanted to ask you a question.
If a man joins the priesthood under false pretense, such as, a
pedophile who just wanted access to young children, would God consider
this man to be able to perform the greatest gift a man could have to
change bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ.
How do we know, would it or might not be an invalid marriage to the
Church.
Thank you so much.
MAS
A. It is m de P who wants to Thank You!
very much because he did not know the answer until you posed the
question, then, as usual, without searching for it and trusting God's
timing and Infinite Wisdom, during the Divine Liturgy, the answer was
granted.
First of all,
man
does not change bread
and wine into the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
It Is God
Who does so utilizing a
man.
With this clarified, let us rewind all the way to the beginning of the
the Old Testament; specifically to the era of Abraham, the Father of
the Faith - from which all children of the monotheistic religions
descend.
[Genesis 22 through
27]
When Abraham's son Isaac was very old and getting ready to depart, he
wished to impart his Blessing upon his oldest son Esau, so that he
would carry on fulfilling the Divine promise about Abraham's
innumerable lineage. Isaac's wife,
through shameful deceit, caused that Isaac conferred such special
Blessing upon her favorite son, Jacob, and not Esau who should have
been the one to receive it.
[Genesis
27]
Did that invalidate what God promised Abraham? Obviously not.
Since it is God Who fulfills the promises and works the most
magnificent miracles,
and
not man, He always sees to it that what He promised comes about,
in spite of man.
Regarding a Matrimony - there is a
slight difference, but not on the priestly side but on the side of the
man and the woman entering into the Sacrament. If the man or the woman
entered the Sacrament
falsely
or totally ignorant of which they were
committing to, there is no valid Sacrament holding them together.

Q. As a Catholic
from birth I was always taught that there was a pay back component of
sin, that after the sin was forgiven the soul was still required to
undergo a purifying cycle in Purgatory OR the penalty portion of the
sin could be discharged by certain specific acts of faith, hope or
charity.
It always struck me that that meant the sin was not unconditionally
forgiven lacking the payment of the penalty and it seemed curious to me
that certain indulgences granted were for specific lengths of time. How
presumptuous of Our Lord's Grace and Forgiveness.
This was among my first clues that "something just does not add up.."
Sincerely yours in Christ
JM
A. Whenever man gets its "grubby fingers",
moved by its satanic driven ego, in the "Holy Pie", things "just do not
add up" for "those who have Eyes to See
and Ears to
Hear". Allow us to
explain. As we read in the
Holy Scriptures:
Agree
with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him; lest
at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge
deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by
no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
[Matthew 5: 25-26]
Even after a sin is forgiven we must
make retribution for it... to
the
uttermost farthing. The same "coin" must be used to settle the
retribution, however, "the amount" is adjusted by the action of Divine
Mercy.
The Divine Mercy
of God and its "level", for a particular case,
is "activated" by many factors and those factors are strictly between
God and the debtor, just like in the above quoted Scripture it is
between the debtor and the adversary (adversary = the one we owe
something to)
.
The Indulgences, Blessed Be God for them! - are related to the "level"
of the Divine Mercy that will be dispensed by God
to minimize a
debt.
Unfortunately, people were made to believe - by default - that the
Indulgences were so that the sin would be forgiven, when that IS NOT
the case.
Blessedly, during Vatican Council II, such turbidity was somewhat
cleared up since we now talk about Partial or Plenary Indulgence and
not "this" or "that" many days depending on "how much you put in my
pocket".
We encourage one and all to use the great gift of the Indulgences; a
great gift from God to man. Most specially
for
the poor souls of
purgatory.
If anyone who walks on this planet would have a peak at the reality of
purgatorial conditions (the soul cannot pray for itself, it can only
pray for others and wait for some charitable soul, who is still "in
body", to pray for their prompt release), not a day would go by without
showering them with prayers for their prompt release.

Q.
I just want to thank you so very much for your clarification on
homosexuality in the June 22 Board information. As a self
identified gay person and those in my community thank you.
We do not ask to be married. Everyone I know who is gay just want
civil rights and to be free from harm. I also don't know any gay
person who wants to convert others to this lifestyle. I can't
imagine anyone straight could possibly want to join a group
that receives such hostility, hate, prejudice, bigotry and the
constant threat of physical harm.
There are many, many gays who work in the human service fields as
doctors, nurses, aids, etc. who have treated others within their care
with much compassion. Many people believe that a pedophile
is a homosexual because the the sexual abuse by the abuser is
considered a homosexual act.
I think many people believe pedophilia and homosexual are the same
thing.
LR
A. Dearest one, Peace!
As
you know, God does not miss an opportunity to help His true children -
most specially help them from being deceived by the evil one. Let us
view the plight of
the homosexuals (note that we state "homosexual" and not "gay" for
there
is a world of difference.) from a different perspective - a very
positive one for all the true children of God.
Imagine
that all who belong to God had a
marking on the forehead as the door posts were marked with blood for
the
night of Passover.
Then, as our Lord and Second Person of the Most Holy Triune God, stated:
A new commandment I give unto you,
That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one
another. By this
shall all men know that ye are my
disciples, if ye have love one to another. [John 13: 34-35]
Therefore, the behavior on an individual
toward the homosexual community will be like a clear marking on their
foreheads.
For
those who are fast talkers and Bible "spinners"
and will
bring
up a terzillion Biblical verses "proving" how evil homosexuals are;
that they are enemies of society, etc., etc., thus attempting to
justifying
their unChristian behavior toward them, the mark on the forehead
parallel still applies for Jesus also stated:
For if ye love them which love you, what
thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.... . But
love ye your enemies, and do good,...; and your reward shall be great,
and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the
unthankful and to the evil. Be ye
therefore merciful,
as your
Father also is merciful. Judge not, and ye shall not be
judged:
condemn not, and ye shall
not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be
forgiven [Luke 6:32-37]
If these Bible "spinners" were true
Christians and the homosexuals were indeed evil creatures and enemies
of society, they would be praying for them incessantly and loving them
into the Kingdom of God. Can we honestly say that we see that?
Therefore,
as you may
be able to see, dear LR, in the midst of the misery that many
homosexuals have to endure
from "Christians" they
are serving God in
three major ways:
(1) Giving
those around you the
opportunity to prove to God,
with
actions and not words, that they are
worthy of being called Christians;
(2) Demonstrating
to God that you truly belong to Him for your behavior toward your
enemies and persecutors is accordance to His teachings;
(3) Assisting
the angels of the
Apocalypse, just like the blood marking in the door posts assisted the
angels on the Night of Passover [Exodus
12:13]; and
(4) Helping those who
are
searching for
God to stir away from those who
falsify
Him with their
staged piety.
As a
show of our love for those who are on the wrong path, yet, think that
they are in the right one, we have prepared and issued another Document in
an effort
that they may open their eyes before
it becomes entirely too late .
For those who are fumbling in their purses and pockets for a book of
matches to torch us.... Hold it! Before you try to do so, read where we
stand regarding: (a) The
changes that many want to implement in the Roman Catholic Church; (b) Homosexuality;
(c) The
Catholic Faith; and
(d) The
True Petrine Ministry.
Now, if you still madly seeking for that book of matches..., think
of "What would Jesus do?"
and also learn the wise lesson taught by
Gamaliel to the Sahendrin [Acts
5: 34-39] - it may just save your life.

Q.
Following is a message from a locutions in Canada called the Silent
Voice. The message mentions Kirlian photography as a means of proving
the Real Presence. I find this a brilliant concept and wonder
what you think about this.
Part of the alleged message:
“In this Holy Year of the
Eucharist, I proclaim that society now has the means to prove that
there is life in the Holy Eucharist, the life of Christ. The Holy
Catholic Church now has the means to prove that the Real Presence of
Jesus is found in the Holy Eucharist, now and until it has been
consumed.”
“By applying this
modern technology that reveals the life within an object that cannot be
seen by the naked eye, the life of Jesus can be photographed in the Holy Eucharist.”
TF
A. We praise God for this tremendous
opportunity to give a concrete example of the many warnings we issue
about alleged visionaries,
locutionists,
mystics, etc.
Faith
in Jesus
Christ, thus, in what He clearly taught, is the cornerstone of our
Salvation. Without Faith, there is no Salvation.
As
Jesus spoke to Paul, after striking him down on his way to Damascus:
To open their eyes,
and to turn them from
darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may
receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are
sanctified by faith that is in me. [Acts
26:18]
Directly
from Paul in Chapter 4 of his Letter to the Romans - Jesus: Our
Justification by Faith - we may read many more examples of that basic
Christian tenet: Without Faith, there is no Salvation.
As
you may remember - there was no
witness of the Resurrection of Jesus. Many saw Him die; many saw Him after the Resurrection,
but no one saw the Resurrection itself. As a parallel to that, no one
saw Mary being Assumed into Heaven. The Eucharistic Presence must be on
Faith alone and not proven directly in any way since the "Faith"
requirement, thus benefits - material and spiritual - would be
invalidated. Allow us to explain with more concrete examples. There are
many mysteries for which God demands Faith in order for them to be
credible.
God
has revealed the reality
several mysteries to m de Portugal always after he believed them,
without a doubt, through Faith - and never before.
There
are others that we have not
published, for example:
The
concrete reality of the Virgin Birth
- where the body of Mary was not disrupted in any way during the
delivery of Jesus; and
The
reason Jesus had to die and truly had
to descend to hell to pay for our sins and give us the opportunity to
an Eternal Life. This miguel can demonstrate mathematically utilizing
Infinite Series and Basic Calculus.
You
may then say: "If we read the Secret
Concept of the Most Holy Trinity then you have somehow robbed us from
our Faith." or "If you show us mathematically the redemption of mankind
through the death and resurrection of Jesus you have somehow robbed us
from our Faith."
The
answer is "No!" in these cases because we cannot
prove to you concretely - say with a film - His Resurrection nor the
Virgin Pregnancy and Birth nor the Reality of the Triune God.
However,
if one were able to, on a
regular basis (as opposed to Eucharistic Miracles which Blessedly
have occurred
from time to time) show Jesus in the Consecrated Host, the Faith on
the Eucharistic Mystery would be destroyed, and all the benefits
associated
with such belief throughFaith
will no longer be functional.
Therefore,
we cannot view nor accept said messages to be from God. However, we are
not denying that such means may be possible. Such a
trick would be a powerful tool in the hands of satan in his continued
quest to destroy the little Faith left.
We
pray to God that we have been able to
explain this clearly. It is clear as a crystal in m de P's mind but
many times words simply fail to express matters that belong to Eternity
and not Time.

Q.
Help me please. I am a lost and miserable soul. I
have not been to church or confession for more than 20 years.
Through reading your messages, and learning about Divine Mercy of God,
I am feeling strongly compelled to return to Jesus through confession
and feeling the need to beg to the Lord to forgive me the most
unforgivable sin. In my mind, my personal failure to have brought my
children to the light of God through baptism and Catholic education.
which would have allowed them to know Jesus and all his blessed
teachings, looms as the most unforgivable sin.
If I had not acted in such way I would not leave them helpless
during the End of These Times that approach so quickly.
As to my children, one is grown, so I have little control any further
upon the development of his soul, and for that, I do ask Jesus to
chastise me greatly. I have made a grievous mistake, in my living of
the world, rather than nourishing his soul with the word of God.
Still, my youngest is with me and I have a chance to yet influence her.
What now can I do to show to her, and her older brother, how to
be one with Jesus, when they have been lost through no fault of your
own? May God forgive me and grant me that Grace.
Although I pray for my own soul, I would most sincerely take on all the
suffering that God intends for my children, most especially my oldest
child, now an adult, for my previous indiscretions, should the Lord
will this upon me. Yesterday I tried to go to confession. I
went to a church that was unknown to me.
There were some people here and there, a scout leader, and some other
folks making ready for a party with balloons and the like, and perhaps
one person that could have been the pastor, but in my shame and
ignorance sitting before Jesus at the front of the Church, I lost my
will to ask, "To whom may I make my confession."
I am so ashamed. Please pray for me to find the strength to find
a confessor, to be humble and to be forthright and truthful and to make
my sincere reparations before Jesus. I need to be able to take
Communion before I can fight any longer, or help my children.
I know you will understand.
You do good work in Jesus' name,
Love
K
A. Preamble: This letter
reached us on 15 November 2004 yet God did not Will that we address it
until now. For those who may wondering why God would leave such a
sorrowful soul without an answer, remember: He does not make mistakes.
K, is doing quite well through His strength and the answers she
received through this Forum from other letters published. Now, there
are some other K's out there whose problem is reflected in K's first
letter, yet, they cannot bring themselves to write. It is for them that
we are now addressing this letter.
Dear K: Let us place your situation in
the proper theological perspective. Imagine those who never come to the
realization that you have or do so just before expiring. God has
granted you the enormous grace to have
your
own Personal
Warning and
some time to make the appropriate amends.
As we pointed out in
Don't
Despair - Do Not Ever Lose Hope!, the moment
the prodigal son turns around to come back to his father, the father
sees him,
runs to him to meet him on the way back and walks home with his son in
his arms (thus assisting the son on the way back - step by step).
In reference to your son's soul - You can still
influence it through
vicarious suffering which God Will dispense and
apply as He sees fit.
In addition: What better example can you give your adult son than your
own conversion? As we keep saying, talk is cheap, but action is where
the proof is. What he is now seeing is real action from your part and
that kind of witnessing will eventually soften the hardest of hearts
(if the heart in question is ever to be softened.)
Don't you remember that Peter denied Jesus three times not long after
having acknowledged Him as the Messiah because the Father had revealed
that to him? Have you done worse? Don't you remember that Saul of
Tarsus (later Paul) was the most determined and ruthless persecutor of
Christians and Christianity and a willing spectator of the stoning of
Stephen? Have you done worse?
Yes, there are "bills to be paid" to God for all our transgressions.
Many of the Faithful think that once the Sacrament of Reconciliation is
completed the "bill is fully paid". That is not the case; that is just
the first step - the sin is forgiven. Now, retribution is to be made
and made in the same "coinage" the debt was incurred in. It is here
where we apply for the
Divine
Mercy "discount coupons".
Continuing in worldly terms which are easily grasped by most...
Say that you steal 1,000 USD from your employer. You go back to
him and confess your deed. He has now a number of options: (a) Turn you
over to the courts; (b) Fire you and make you pay the 1,000 USD plus
damages; or (c) Knowing that you have learned your lesson and you will
henceforth be a model and reliable employee - ask you to do some
charitable work on his behalf (if you stole money, obviously you must
have been very short of money and to demand the 1,000 USD immediately
would have broken your back).
The amount or lack of Divine Mercy "discount coupons" will determine
which of the three options will be selected to fully "pay the bill"
even though your action may have been forgiven by your employer.
Once you, in utmost sincerity, placed in the Hands of God
the I would most
sincerely take on all the
suffering that God intends for my children, most especially my oldest
child, now an adult, for my previous indiscretions, should the Lord
will this upon me you have automatically applied for the
"highest percentage Divine Mercy discount coupons." Now, it is up to
God to fix said percentage and then "collect".
Unfortunately the Faithful knows very little
about God and His methods since not many Catholics regularly drink of
the Living Waters - The Word of God. Undoubtedly, you have heard the
self-righteous and holier-than-thou pouring condemnation and abuses
over homosexuals, yet, when God points out to them, during their Final
Judgment, that He said:
"And thou,
Capernaum, which art exalted
unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell; for if the mighty
works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would
have remained until this day. But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for
the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee." [S. Matthew 11:23-24]
"Exalted unto heaven" read "self-righteous and holier-than-thou" attitudes. What
was Capernaun transgression? Capernaum's transgression was unbelief;
lack of faith in Jesus
Christ. In spite of the mighty works which Jesus
Christ did in Capernaum they refused to believe in Him.
What is to "believe in Him"? "Believe in Him" is
to do everything possible to obey His teachings. And what are the core
of His teachings? They may be found in the Sermon of the Mount.
Dearest K, be certain, God has rejoiced over
your conversion far more than over the complacency of those who think
that "they are there" when they are truly a million miles away! They
may be surprised about the "terms and conditions" they contracted with
God - and they were not in fine print.
Now, go forth and share that joy with others that are now where you
were, by showing
them the way through love and example - words are not
really necessary until they start asking for direction.

Q.
For your discernment and comments I refer you to the latest document
published by Unity Publishing entitled:
"Will Our Lady Come Back To Fatima Again?"
(Initials Withheld)
A. We will only select a few of the
statements made in such report and comment upon them; we certainly do
not have the time nor the charge to spend any more time with this type
of reports that keep coming out of Fátima via a number of self
appointed spokesmen, experts, specialists, etc.
Statement No. 1
If
you pray at the Cova and
look at the spot where Our Lady appeared to the children, you should
reflect on how much She changed the world
already
from this very spot. She predicted the rise of Hitler and
Communism and She predicted that She would defeat them.
Almost all the predictions She made at Fatima have come to pass.
Our Comment
As
we are tired of pointing out with facts and figures. She gave the Church Administration (CA) the
formula to avoid what would happen.
The
CA did nothing, thus
logically,
what She was trying to
prevent did
occur. She did not
change the world - She tried to avoid the oceans of blood that would be
released in the world if Her
instructions were
not obeyed. The CA changed the world for the worse through criminal
inaction.
Statement No. 2
In
May of 1917, during World War I, Pope Benedict XV made a
direct appeal to Mary to intercede for peace in the world. The response
was Mary's
first appearance at Fatima just over a week later. Now we have
the next Pope Benedict, who sent a friend to Fatima on
the day he was elected to offer some prayers to Her for him. We do not
yet know what that prayer is.
Our Comment
The
pious story of Pope Benedict XV makes a come back to "turbo charge"
Benedict XVI. We state that is a "pious story" because it certainly is
another fabrication of the CA to "stimulate the Faith" (the Faith is
only given by God and does not need any fakery to "stimulate
it"). Were that story true, H.H. Benedict XV would have "broken his
legs" running to obey such a
quick response from
Heaven. Did he? Of course not! Carefully review the well document
Chronology of Events associated with the
Fátima events.
Now
we have a "secret prayer" entrusted by Benedict XVI to offer in
Fátima... Just like those personal papers that the secretary of H.H. John Paul II
should have burned but he did not and no one knows what they contain. A
veritable mine to supply
"pious stories" and
additional inventions by the CA.
Statement No. 3
On
13 May 1917 when Our Lady appeared, Lucia asked Her what She wanted and
Our Lady said. "I have come to ask you to come here for six
months on the 13th day of the month, at this same hour. Later I shall
say who I am and what I desire. And ...........I shall
return here yet a seventh time............." On page 175 of
"Fatima in Lucia's own words" the same statement is made: "I shall
return HERE yet a seventh time."
Our Comment
We
have seen that statement (in four languages), as well as the official
explanation by those in the Sanctuary entrusted with the publication of said
Memoirs, in several of our Fatima books - one of which includes the
complete handwritten version of Lucia's full memories - not
just snippets conveniently selected.
But assuming that the official
explanation is not correct... so what? Unless, of course, it would be
financially beneficial for Fátima
businesses,
experts, spokesmen, etc. Nothing new under the sun - is all about money
- not souls!
What is critcal and everyone seems to be conveniently overlooking is
the following:
On July 13, 1917, She said:
"To save them [souls of sinners that are
going to hell](3), God wishes
to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If what I
say
to you is done, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
"...but
if people do not cease offending God, a worse one [than World War I](3)
will break out during the pontificate of Pius XI". [Whole
Text, in English and Portuguese, is Item A in ATTACHMENT
II](2)
"To prevent this, I shall come to ask
for the consecration of Russia
to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of Reparation on the First
Saturdays.
If my requests are heeded, Russian will be converted, and there will be
peace; if not, she (Russia) will spread her errors throughout the
world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be
martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations
will be annihilated. In the end, my Immacualte Heart will triumph..."
[Whole Text, in English and Portuguese, is Item
B in ATTACHMENT II]
Russia could not
and did not
start to spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and
persecutions of the Church,
until
after the war that could have been prevented if Rome had acted,
World War II. Therefore, following the sequence in Her statement, it
would be only then,
after
Russia spread her errors that "various nations will be
annihilated". Thus "various nations will be annihilated"
does not refer, as the
Faithful are led to believe, to the events that took place during World
War II. This will take place now in spite of those pipe dreams of a
Golden Era of Peace.
Statement No. 4

may think you as crazy as the Garabandal people if you say this.
But maybe, if Garabandal was demonic and it could have been,
maybe the
devil saw in Fatima what many are not seeing, and wanted to draw
attention away from that fact,
the fact of another
apparition in Fatima some day in the future.
Our Comment
But
why such insistence? Quite simple. Mr. Salbato is "a friend" of
Opus Dei - discreetly, of course. His choice and his effort to live it
and publicize his believes and very human conclusions, we respect; however, we cannot
tolerate the intoxication of the little Faith left in the world so that
the demented dream (nightmare)
of Jose
María Escriva , something that has already been
proven a failure as
an
Evangelization tool and a success as
a
braiwashing tool, be
upheld.
Opus Dei and the other
competing sects within the Roman Catholic Church have recruited their
members, as well as their bank
accounts, with a "Call to
Battle" of saving the Church and the World. Thus, while they milk
them for all their worth, they
have to maintain alive
the notion that they will indeed do that, even though they cannot even
save their own country - Spain - a truly pathetic
sight.

In Conclusion
The
concept that the Golden Era of Peace is at hand and that they are
the Architects of it must be maintained alive - at all costs; yes, at all costs.
What will they do when this announced "pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow" is smashed to smithereens? By a nuclear
holocaust and/or a
comet impact?
Maybe they should contact the Marian
Movement of
Priests and ask
them how they explained what we read in the next to the last paragraph
of message 532 (December 5, 1994) where allegedly Mary clearly confirms
that by
the great jubilee of the year 2000 the triumph of Her Immaculate Heart
will take place with the return of Jesus in Glory....
We will not go beyond that - we have had enough.
The
general mood and situation at this late a time is reflected in a
personal e-mail miguel de Portugal wrote on June 30th, 2005:
Personally,
am counting every minute until God "lets fly".
The lines are drawn. Only those who are His Children and those who have
not found their way back yet because they
mistakenly rejected Him, are the ones who will properly
connect; and those are our responsibility.
The rest are either eternally doomed or must
suffer horrendously so
that they "snap out of it" even
though they will spend a very long time in Purgatory.
Sad - but I do not make up the Rules nor Apply them, we just announce
them and God certainly knows
what He is doing.
Kyrie Eleison!

Q.
Greetings:
I went to Mass Saturday evening for the Vigil for Sunday. I was
watching carefully to be sure that all the vessels on the altar
containing the bread and wine to be offered were beneath the
priest's hands as he performed the Transubstantiation..
I believe I saw that after Father transubstantiated the bread and wine
in the vessels before him Deacon P went into the (place where the
Blessed Sacrament reposes-also a pass-through to the preparation area
behind the altar), remove two gold bowls and placed them among the
others on the altar. The contents were then part of what was offered to
those receiving The Holy Eucharist.
My question is this:
Does the bread remain in the "Form" (of Our Lord) even though it may be
unused for a particular Mass and brought out at a later time or
need it be transubstantiated for each Mass?
JM
A.
Yes. The Eucharistic Presence of Our Lord continues to Be. However,
there seems to be a problem with that practice.
First of all - In accordance to the
Vatican Rules, most of the consecrated hosts given in a particular Mass
should have been consecrated in that same Mass, except when conditions
simply prevent it, such as: Mass in St. Peter's Square or the esplanade
before the Basilica of Fátima and the like. Even though
thousands of hosts are consecrated then, the officiating minister must
rely on previously consecrated hosts for the communion of
hundreds of thousands of communicants.
Nevertheless, what concerns us the most is that we are witnessing the
practice that you have reported in far too many Masses
where there is no need to do so
unless, of course, "the need" is to feed the Faithful unconsecrated
host. This, of course, would be in keeping with the times that we
are living through. What better way for satan to mount a full and final
assault on those who try to remain strengthened by and through the
Bread of Heaven than by spiritual starving them?
Most homilies have become
completely
worthless; therefore, if to that absence you add the withholding
of the True Bread of Heaven... then, what is that you have left?
Nothing! - excpet the ever-present collection plate.
Our advice from here - and regardless who may get upset, the Roman
Curia included - is: (1) Attend Mass where you can be sure that the
consecration
is being done
properly; and (2) That most hosts used in
communion were consecrated right at that Mass and before you own eyes.
Frankly - with some notable exceptions - we have very little trust in
the integrity of
those who
today claim to be Shepherds for God's
people. As the saying goes in the U.S. - we must all act as if we
were
from Missouri.
