    THIS is truth?

    Introduction of St. Louis-Marie 1. It was through the Blessed Virgin Mary that Jesus came into the world, and it is also through her that he must reign in the world. This is not so, the Apostles did not say this, Jesus never said this, the Written Word does not say this, this is...

    This Proverb is Mary?

    The Visit to the Blessed Virgin And now as to the visits to the Most Blessed Virgin, the opinion of St. Bernard is well known, and generally believed: it is, that God dispenses no graces otherwise than through the hands of Mary: "God wills that we should receive nothing that does not pass...

    Ghosts.

    I had mentioned Samuel, who came up disembodied from Sheol. Moses and Elijah are not raised to incorruptible yet. And it is debatable whether Moses was there bodily or not. So where did i mention Elijah and Moses anyways? I didn't. A living spirit has different meanings, Elijah is a...

    Saints in the Church

    Visiting a statue is visiting?

    In Father Auriemma's little book, Affetti Scambievoli [Affetti Scam. p. 2. c. 3], we read of innumerable favors granted by the Mother of God to those who practised this most profitable devotion of often visiting her in her churches or before some image. We read of the graces which she granted in...

    Prayer without Mary is like flying without wings?

    "Let us then," says St. Bernard (who went so far as to call Mary "the whole ground of his hope"), "seek for graces, and seek them through Mary." [De Aquaed.] Otherwise, says St. Antoninus, if we ask for graces without her intercession, we shall be making an effort to fly without wings, and we...

    sole custodian of his treasures and the sole dispenser of his graces?

    44. Mary alone found grace before God without the help of any other creature. All those who have since found grace before God have found it only through her. She was full of grace when she was greeted by the Archangel Gabriel and was filled with grace to overflowing by the Holy Spirit when he so...

    St Gertrude's Vision

    Saint Gertrude had a vision of Our Lord counting gold coins. She summoned the courage to ask Him what He was doing. He answered: "I am counting the Hail Marys that you have said; this is the money with which you can pay your way to Heaven." :holy:

    Ultimate Blasphemy?

    I find this to be the ultimate blasphemy, having all this Mary Spirit interaction at Communion, Mary was not even at the Last Supper and Communion is specifically for remembering the Body and Blood of Jesus and His Crucifixion! .............'the more you let Mary act in your Communion the...

    Spirit of Mary?

    Meditating on St Ambrose's well-known text: “Let the soul of Mary be in each of us to magnify the Lord, and the spirit of Mary be in each of us to rejoice in God” (Expos. in Luc., 12, 26: PL 15, 1561), he writes: “A soul is happy indeed when... it is all possessed and overruled by the spirit of...

    Does this scare anyone into thinking they are not doing enough? It scares me.

    What is enough? Mat 25:31 ¶ When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: Mat 25:32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth...

    Ordained to Condemnation

    What does this mean in verse 4: were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God Jud 1:1 ¶ Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father...

    Do you have assurance of salvation?

    Do you believe you can fall but believe at the same time your being held by the power of the Holy Ghost? Or do you believe that it is a long journey and you'll make it because of the gift of faith to believe that God will hold you? Do you believe that God is doing the holding or yourself...

    The Eastern Gate

    So what is the Temple if the Gate is Mary? I'm thinking the Gate is Jesus's body being crucified, because this is the only way of entrance into the Temple, and Jesus's entrance into Heaven? But then that conflicts with the curtain to the Holy of Holies...
