ADVICE TO ALL CATHOLICS
SEPTEMBER 29, 2018
The first thing to recognize about our humanity is that we are nothing without God. Indeed, the nothingness of the creature is our permanent condition save for the merit God gains for us by His grace alone and by the good works done upon our part with His Divine assistance. Humility is the profound synonym of the objective truth of our ontological state. We must apply this humility to our life and confess our nothingness before the All Mighty King and Lord of all, Jesus Christ. I am warning you that there is indeed a hell, and if in the freedom of the choice that God designed us to enjoy we say an eternal no to Him, if we do not appreciate to an extreme degree and thank Him for His radical sacrifice on The Cross with all of our hearts, He will pronounce a terrible and eternal no to us. And we will be forever severed from Love which as Saint John The Evangelist tells us is God Himself. For God is indeed love. Yet He is also justice. For all love by its infallible essence is just as well as merciful. Reject the world in which we now find ourselves. For the world cares not for the things of God but for the evil will of man apart from union with Our Creator and Redeemer. If you know by certain criterion that you can not regain the soul of an apostate, convert an Islamic, a Jew, a Lutheran, a Mason, an Anglican or another kind of heretic, then flee from the world, the devil and the flesh, and from any contradiction from the truth, lest your faith be compromised or lost. The best you can do for other people is to offer up your sufferings for them and pray for their sanctification. For remember all people are the children of God. Still, outside of The Church there is no salvation.
Meaning where there is love, there is Christ and His Church,
even if, as in sects which profess other perspectives, only
in part. The individual is paramount only in relation to the
whole,
to God, Who is Omniscient and Omnipotent.
And where there is not love there is evil. Heaven must be earned not so much by accomplishing great works by our own power which aside from God is non existent, but from nourishing our faith, hope and love, and by performing good works born from the love we have for Him who deemed with all of His heart to love us first. Then we can verily attain true merit according to His infinite grace and justice. This is how we earn heaven and our particular place in that unspeakably majestic and happy Kingdom. For if we truly love God we will find it easy to obey His commandments, for as He said: “Come to me all ye who are burdened, and I will refresh thee. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” And as it is the concrete knowledge of our Catholic faith that God is indeed love, what is the quintessence of that Love? It is glory. Glory which radiates infinite joy. For He is glory itself.
Our Lady of the Snows, Pray For Us. Amen
