Perhaps it's a matter of age.. . ? I'm an old timer and more lately than befoe with my Faith (in Jesus) and God's Grace - former sins have been shown to me and not in any negative and/or frightening manner... and which have assisted me in my repentance - continuing revolution of my soul. Via God's Mercy we receive His Forgiveness.. and with that we'll be Judged by Jesus as becoming Welcomed into His Coming Kingdom... My HOPE? Increased multifold when with Faith in God's Assistance I first Prayerfully dove into God's Gospel.. and finally began a true metanoia / repentingj / obeying.. " The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.”? Now Means a Tonne to me.. Jesus is that Light.. And the Darkness can now never overcome in on me.
It seems you've had a wonderful turnaround in the not too distant past, Frankly. Praise God for His graces of conversion!
The Warning is the Most Amazing Grace and the Most Marvelous Miracle that the Good Lord, Almighty God, Jesus Christ, has ever worked for Humanity! I pray that no less than at least 5 Billion Souls are saved when it comes! Let us, who know the Truth of the Warning (so many 100s of Millions of even Catholics still do not) dedicate our live to praying and sacrificing for this noble goal of the salvation of untold Billions. But yes, unfortunately, some will remain obstinate; the Pharisees were not converted even when Lazarus and Christ were raised from the dead, though they should have been. There is nothing we can do for them but pray and weep. And since we don't know who they are, we must still work to Evangelize all we can. God Bless.
It kinda reminds me of the end of a poker game.. ..when we have to cash in all our chips and give a final accounting. Several recent Popes have described our times as this. Some very forcefully. The End Game.
http://www.catholicapologetics.info/scripture/newtestament/liguori.pdf The above is surely a stark reminder of the imminence of Hell! I should remind myself frequently of Ephesians 6 least I grow slack in my fear of offending our Gracious Lord! 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. 14 Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace; 16 above all taking the shield of faith, with which you can quench all the flaming darts of the evil one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Romans 33 O the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are his judgments and how inscrutable his ways! 34 “For who has known the mind of the Lord, or who has been his counselor?” 35 “Or who has given a gift to him that he might be repaid?” 36 For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be glory for ever. Amen.
No doubt, Padraig. We are nearing the end of an age. It's been 50+ years of abortions, fornications etc. As much of the world unfortunately gets worse, the Warning may be one last act of Divine Mercy! From: https://www.garabandal.us/prph_warn/ God Bless. "The Garabandal warning is unprecedented, however in that it will be universal: “All nations and all persons will experience it in the same way; it will be visible throughout the entire world, in whatever place anyone might be; experienced equally by believers and non-believers and people of any religions whatsoever.” This universal aspect, especially the fact that everyone will experience it “in the same way,” will convince men that God has done it. We are further assured of this important factor in Conchita’s response to these questions: Will the warning be recognized and accepted by the world as a direct sign from God? –Certainly (“claro”), and for this reason I believe it is impossible that the world could be so hardened as not to change. What about the many people who do not know Christ; how will they understand the warning? –For those who do not know Christ (non-Christian) they will believe it is a warning from God."
I was an acquaintance of MM. and I certainly did not believe everything which came out of his mouth or pen.
I know so many who think they don't sin enough to go to confession, my hope and prayer is that the warning will give them a final chance to save their souls.. Although, the local priest here (I go mass elsewhere) has not mentioned sin once in the many years he has said mass in the area, I hear this from others in the area. No wonder they don't have any respect for the sacrament of reconciliation.
The purpose of the Teaching of God's GOSPEL is to unite those Obedient to it - with God's Holy Spirit! SHAME on those who - whether bishop or priest - do not instruct all their flock on Sin and how to avoid Sinning against God! Salvation? Is our number one Goal!
Lots of planes in the sky's!!! My wife and I saw at least 20+ planes fly over and they are not the same one's.
They were. Since my first post I had found out that there was an Air show in the area. Sorry about the urgent post. My apologies. I have been trying to stay off social media so I didn't know about the air show. Others were also calling state police so I don't feel too alone about the incident
No worries, we're all a bit skittish. I truly love your profile picture. It's what I imagine will happen someday when Our Lord removes the veil hiding His true presence.
