I haven't followed this site in a long time, but it looks as though it was a very difficult day for the folks at Church Militant. https://www.lifesitenews.com/episod...d-from-church-militant-by-board-of-directors/
It must have been bad. He posted a lengthy video on Twitter/X where he stated… “There are things I have to go away and address and work on, horrible, ugly things,” he said. “Not going to share them, nobody else's business but mine.”
Praying. It matters not what the sin might be. St. Theresa of Avila said that given the right circumstances, upbringing, and without God preventing it....There was NO SIN that she would not have committed. So if true of that great doctor of the Church, it is true of all of us. I know lacking the grace of God, I would have also committed the most horrible sins. Praying.
Sad news...I remember when he said that he used to be someone who acted on his same sex attraction I had, well, very uncharitable thoughts. I don't remember if it was the next night but when I was waking up I had a very clear image of him pop into my mind with him wearing clericals and speaking with a child, I was overwhelmed with love for him in that brief instant. I was then pretty ashamed. Prayers for him.
Yes, I agree. John Henry Weston's video response about Michael in the first post was excellent, we must pray for Michael. John Henry said there will be some who will be gleeful that Church Militant let him go, and this is very sad. Whatever the cause of this terrible storm, it is surely causing Michael great anguish.
This is Michael's video from Twitter. I have nothing but a nonjudgmental response. If my sins were revealed to the masses I would die of shame. All sinners deserve our prayers and forgiveness...Jesus demands it. https://twitter.com/Michael_Voris/status/1727102250311733320
Here but for the grace of God -- I got an overwhelming sense whilst listening to his wee video that Michael is suffering because of a childhood trauma. May God in His infinite goodness touch, heal and restore him to wholeness.
I couldn't help feeling so sorry for Michael and thinking of him at Mass this morning. Praying for him . He is in a terrible dark place. God have mercy. It's all so very,very sad.
E. Michael Jones said that when the revelations of his homosexual background became public, Michael Voris might have been better to have avoided such a public ministry, that he wasn't ready for it. Perhaps, he was right.
Prayers for Christine Niles too, I like her a lot and for all at Church Militant. I guess this is end of the road for them all. prayers.
I had the same sense….I felt only deep compassion. Trauma is not easy to face, but now there’s beautiful apostolates in the Church to help people heal, like Dr. Bob Schultz and Sr. Mariam. It will be a long road, but I wish my brother in Christ restoration and deep healing in his personal dignity and that he remembers he is made in the image of Christ.
I like Christine Niles too. This response of Christine to the situation at Church Militant and with Michael Voris really touched me. She talks about the importance of daily prayer in this spiritual battle. I have been under immense pressure or attack more recently, ever since some sad losses in my life and starting work again more or less full time. I seem to have lost so much of the spiritual progress I had made and am finding prayer much more difficult. I am very heartened by Christine's exhortation to pray always. She said she noticed that Michael stopped praying with the staff about 2 years ago and underwent a kind of personality change. I am immensely encouraged by Christine's call to prayer. As Our Lady always says, "pray!, pray!, pray!". I pray also for the strength and the grace to realise that ultimately this life is all about the salvation of souls, including my own.
