Well there you go: The Modernist lie, 'Spirit Daily' Michael Brown. Preaching the exact way to Hell. Wow!!! What next!! I have been very fond of MIchael Brown, counted him as a friend. What a sifting of the wheat these has been.!! So sad. http://spiritdaily.org/blog/inspiration/a-soft-heart-is-a-tough-one
By the aay, I am not going to make no bones about it, I am very, very suspicious of somone else I counted on as a true friend out there, Mark Mallett's present stance. What can I say, you have to tell it as it is. It's starting to look very,very lonely out there if you are standing out there for the truth.
I can't believe what is happening at the moment. Such a sifting of the wheat!! What is going on? So sad. So Very,very,very sad. I was friends with these people. Now they are preaching hell as a way to go down. I don't know what to say. It's looking so lonely out there for people who support the Catholic Faith as taught by the Apostles The Fathers and the Authentic Magisterium. Folks are just falling like Nine Pins. Oh well, if they are going to hell let them go to hell. The way to hell is very wide and paved with popularity. Let's all go somewhere else. May God forgive them.If they want to go to hell , Let them. But I mean leading tens of thousands of poor souls with them?
Well padraig, I don't know about you but when I read things like this it has the exact opposite effect as what was intended.
Well Don, a parting of the waters. So sad., leaving friends. What are they thinking? It reminds me of America at the outbreak of the Civil War, folks walking away.
I'm not Catholic yet. Maybe this isn't hurting in the same way. Every other week I get to go to Mass, unless my husband puts his foot down and says "no". I try to pray at home and keep out of his hair. Sometimes I can go to Mass. It is good to be there, and good to take everything in. As a potential convert, I sometimes wonder if there will be a Catholic Church to enter once my husband and I enter into it. But then another part of me knows that's a faithless, stupid thing to think. Two things have brought me to the gates of Rome; Pope John Paul II and knowing beyond any debate that Sola Fidé is dead wrong and has lead souls to Hell. I am convinced that the root of this crisis is a wearing away of the truth that grace works through faith and through works to save us. Mercy is being twisted and redesigned as a placement for Sola Fidé, but it's the same lie. Real Divine Mercy is not a license to sin, whether knowingly or unknowingly. Sin sends you to Hell, and that's it. Padraig, you're an awesome guy, and Mother of God is an awesome place.
This is from the mystic Luisa Piccarreta writings and I think we can see why so few will enter the era of peace in the divine will following the purification. The full message was posted by Lynnfiat on The Divine Will thread. {May 20, 1936} All those who saw Me ascended into Heaven received many graces, such that all of them laid down their lives in order to make known the Kingdom of Redemption, and laid the foundations on which to form my Church, so as to gather in Her maternal bosom all of the human generations. In the same way, the first children of the Kingdom of my Will will be few, but the graces with which they will be invested will be such and so great, that they will lay down their lives in order call everyone to live into this Holy Kingdom.
Well then I know my simple duty to the Faith as taught me by my parents and teachers f these folks wish to go to hell, well then let them! They are most certainly dragging me with them !! Oh God . The next time a Pope or Cardinal is chosen I simply beg you this in prayer. I ask of you, on my knees that he be a simple faithful Catholic. As my parents were.
Well present events are certainly a big eye opener. They're falling away like leaves in the Autumn. Well then let 'em. They're most certainly not dragging me there with them. They're beginning to disgust me and make me very, very angry indeed. To go to hell yourself is one thing; to lead others there in their thousands; quite another.
I can only speak for myself in all this madness, both within the Church and world. I am getting emboldened in my faith. My prayer life has increased substantially. My desire to speak more boldly the truths of the faith to others in my walk of life has been strengthened through it all. I think others on the forum feel the same way. I don't know what it all means going forward, but if this is a sampling of what the disciples received on Pentecost, it is a great and awesome gift and I just pray I can stay faithful through it all and not let any fear overwhelm me. I have also doubled down with my wife on praying the rosary at the start and end of the day with our children still at home. I have put all my intentions within the Immaculate and Sorrowful heart of Mary. I hope/pray I can continue to say as Peter did when many disciples left him and followed him no more when Jesus foretold the Eucharist in John 6:67 "and many of his disciples left him and followed him no more" and (69) "And Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.."
Well wonderful words. When the going gets rough, the tough get going. Sick to my back teeth with the whole rotten, sell out pack of them and rolling up my sleeves for battle.
Yes it is very lonely out there. And this narrow road is rutted and dynamited with broken glass and rusty nails. And one by one the flower strewn side paths beckon and there are those who turn away. St. John Bosco had some sobering frightening dreams about this. I find my constant prayer to Jesus and Mary is "don't let go of me! Don't let go of me!" I've been worried about Mark Mallett for awhile. I couldn't bring up the Spirit Daily article but I will look it up later. Michael Brown was a heavy hitter. I'm sad. Pope Francis seems to be the lightning rod for this sifting.
Very, very sad. They are drinking the Kool Aid. Simply parroting back what they hear coming from Rome. Using the very same language. I think the thinking is as basic as this: "The Pope can't be wrong, so whoever opposes what he is doing is wrong."
Well yes. That's true. But friends are friends. I made allowances. I have been in touch with many of these people for many years now. I considered them personal friends. So I kinda sat back and waited. Well there you go. So sad. byeee to them
The biggest problem is that what they are saying is partly true. Truth mixed with a lie. It is not good to be rigid about the wrong things. Faith must be alive and growing. Allowing room for the Holy Spirit to move and form us. For example when I first came back to the Church my first confession after twenty years was given by a priest, but not in the Church proper. I then read that a confession must be given in a confessional or oratory according to canon law. Then I began worrying about the validity of the confession. This is the kind of rigidity that is bad. Staying true to Christ's and the Church's constant Teaching on adultery for 2000 years is not being rigid. The statement that rigidity is not good in a spiritual sense is true sometimes, but in the sense that it is being used commonly today it is not being used correctly.
I am growing very impatient now, angry, and making much less allowances for people following this crap. It is crap . It is clear now. I like this. There is no doubt that people following the stuff we are being handed at the moment are crap themselves. A true sifting and weeding. It may sound very harsh putting it this way; but we are being handed some very, very evil stuff indeed at the moment to swallow and these people are taking it hook , line and sinker. People who were supposed to be Catholic Leaders So... crap
I kinda go back down the years to when I was just 16. Myself and my Spiritual Director used to discuss all this based on the words of Our Lady of Garabandal. She spoke of all this that is going on at the moment. This huge ; this mind boggling Apostasy , I was very young and callow back then. I used to look forward to these days and think to myself how proud I would be if I were the only one in Ireland to keep the Faith. Now it just make me feel so sad. Just so very, very,very,very sad. But very angry too. ...and very indignant.
