We were told grievous wolves would come in not sparing flock Acts 20:29-31. I never quoted anyone but what God said is in His ark. Its up to us to beleive or not beleive His written word. Its our free will and in Jesus's time, it will all get sorted out.
Be well.
You have not said the word of God. You have said what you say the word of God says which is really not God but you and your interpretation .
Deep down you know it is true, but you can’t admit it, because your whole belief system on which you based your life falls apart
I know it is hard to face the truth. I had to come to grips with it myself. It is humiliating, I know, but God does not bow to us. He tells us that to follow Him we must join Him in death. He gives us the benefit of a bloodless death, but we still must deny our very selves in order to follow Him
We read scripture that the enmity is between Satan and the woman. Satan hates her with all his fury. When we deny her or speak ill of her or drag her down to our level, we do not do God’s work. We take the side of her enemy
Her name is unique in all of scripture, she is not just one who is full of grace. It is her name, Kecharitomene. She has all that God can give, and there is no stain in her. To say that there is, does not insult her, it insults the grace of God and counts it as an unclean thing. Yet she is your mother and stands ready to help at any time.
Do you need evidence? Consider Our Lady of Guadalupe. Mary appeared to Juan Diego in the 16th century. The Bishop did not believe him and asked for a sign. Juan brought him flowers in the dead of winter when they should not be, and when he dropped the flowers at the Bishop’s feet, on his tilma was an image of Our Lady
That tilma is still able to be viewed in Mexico City today. It has been studied scientifically more than anything else, and its existence cannot be explained by natural means. The eyes in the image are arranged as living eyes, the reflection in the pupil shows the Bishop and many other people they were there when Jaun Diego first showed the image. The tilma is made from material that should have degraded long ago, but it is here 500 years later and survived fire and acid spills. The stars around Our Lady are as the constellations in the 1500s when Juan Diego was there. The stars are also arranged as musical notes which have been analyzed to provide the most beautiful music. All these are amazing
The greatest sign is that after this miracle, the Aztec empire was a people strongly tied to ritual human sacrifice. They were convinced to stop worshiping their false gods and worship our Lord Jesus Christ who sacrificed Himself for all. The miracle is above reproach. We know it is supernatural. Can it not be of God? Jesus tells us that Satan cannot cast out Satan as a house divided against itself cannot stand. Satan would not tolerate cession of human sacrifice to his honor in favor of unbloody sacrifice in honor of Our Lord.
The miracle is there for you to see, but you cannot look at it, as you would see the truth but you’d close your eyes. If you did see it, you would either have to accept it or say it is of the devil, but if you do that, you would risk blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. Take a look at the gifts your mother has given you, what’s to lose except your pride?
What good is it to ask for a sign and then refuse to look at it?
