At the moment of our conception, we are at the post waiting for our birth so we can run the race of life. Certainly this dramatic Miracle has more Reason than our mere existence in the world for a period of time. OF COURSE IT HAS. It doesnt take a mental giant to recognize this or to realize that life has Reason, Meaning and Goal. We arrive at many new post times in our life, and each one is for a reason, time, or situation pertinent to our Salvation. We must treat it with all the enthusiasm, interest and challenge…
View Entire TeachingDreamy thoughts, a fantastic idea, ridiculous fantasy, all make up the meaning of a word, condition, situation or state of mind that appeals to so many people. Sometimes such a state of living becomes so much of a habit that small or large groups of people constantly gather to just talk. Nothing is ever really accomplished, but a lot of ideas, fantasies, pass through the group. Such idle chatter may relieve ones tension momentarily, but it cannot relieve them of their responsibilities. Activity can be the greatest medicine a man can get. Activity gives strength to the mind and the…
View Entire TeachingWhy is it so necessary for some people to look important, feel important, act important? Why is being important sometimes more important than being what you are? Every human being is important to God and to other people. Its just a matter of how one handles daily living, daily responsibilities, daily habits, daily chores, daily personal needs, daily dealings with other people, daily acts of charity, daily Spiritual acts of love. To so many people, the only way they can recognize that they look important is to be in the forefront, to be treated special, to be constantly sought out,…
View Entire TeachingAn act that binds the spoken or written word to a commitment to do or not do something. How many times have you honored promises you have made to God? How many times have you kept or have forgotten to keep promises to others? In a promise there is more at stake than shows: honor, decency, respect, personal pride, personal integrity, dignity, and definitely how ethical a person truly is. All that for just a promise? YES. WHY NOT? If a promise is not a binding commitment, then why even bother making it? Consequences of a promise not kept are…
View Entire TeachingPerhaps this statement of how you feel about yourself is solid truth BUT you can always IMPROVE. A slight improvement each day will eventually pay dividends that no banking institution could afford. When we improve our values, our standards, our acts of charity, our behavior, our habits, our intentions, our attitudes, our caring, our sharing good things, our dignity, our respect for others and other peoples things, our motives, our Faith in God, the change will be astronomical in the results that cannot help but reveal themselves. Remember, work on improvement, and change will occur.
View Entire TeachingThe briar patches arent always obvious, sticky bushes, but can be disguised as convenience, interesting, challenging, adventuresome, gainful, relaxing, hidden pleasure, shutting out personal problems, escape from responsibility, enjoyment. To tell some people that something is dangerous doesnt always alert their common sense to think about the prevailing conditions or situations, but their stubborn nature, or their innate quest to be daring, makes them the victim of their own lack of self-discipline, or lack of self-control, or even self-defiance when being told what to do. Sound reason is many times shoved aside, and weakness, ego, selfishness, the devil I care…
View Entire TeachingWhat is the difference between logical change and change for convenience? In truth, logic is the science of proof. Convenience is defined as comfort, advantage, accommodation. Holy Communion in the hand is unreasonable, illogical, and definitely a method of convenience for the clergy in spite of the important issue that Holy Communion on the tongue proves the humility of the receiver and less chance for desecration to this Precious Gift of Love, God Himself. If a priest has the lame excuse of not liking to look into the mouths of people, why should he be so repulsed by his important…
View Entire TeachingWhy did men feel this necessity? Was it to generate more leniencies in their own station of life or was it meant to modify Roman Catholicism, making it less severe and less strong? MODIFICATION many times lessens the necessary detailing, and results in a situation, a product, or an ideal, becoming ordinary in its content and total essence. When men felt that Holy Mother Church should be updated, they ventured into a modification of Its foundation, of Its structure, and of Its values to mankind. They diminished in every way the strength Holy Mother Church deserved to remain in light…
View Entire TeachingThe accepted mode of life today is irresponsibility. In all areas of life it appears. It penetrates home life, work, school, social and Spiritual areas. There is no phase of life that is not touched by irresponsibility. There are many areas that good causes are taken up for and in, to better conditions, living, working and social, but not too many causes are pursued to create or to insist upon people accepting responsible responsibilities because it is the just manner of doing things. What has triggered so much irresponsibility? A few people accepting it? The entertainment media? The theory that…
View Entire TeachingIn all ages of History, in all times of life, the world has had people who could be called charlatans. This person pretends to have more knowledge or skill than he or she really has. This person, in essence, is a quack, an impostor, a fraud, and thrives on deception. It is a shame that so many of these types of people practice Spiritual direction for other people. That is why it is so necessary for people, who find that they have a deep desire to know more about God, to grow more in love with Him, and to find…
View Entire TeachingWisdom is always profound in its simplicity. When God speaks to man, it is always in a concise manner, has clarity, and there can never be any doubt to Its meaning. Gods Words and Direction never show favoritism to one man but are always meant to benefit all of mankind.
View Entire Teaching“Important events in our lives are always preceded by certain amounts of preparation. The details of these preparations are in accordance with the type of event, the involvement that is entailed in the event, and of course, the true importance this event plays in our life. In the last ten years there has been a lessened amount of Spiritual preparation for the coming of Easter which in reality is a day of celebration, a day of endearment, and a day no man should diminish in preparing for. As long as man exists upon the earth there will be the celebration…
View Entire TeachingArmor has many designs and is made of many different materials, ideals and strengths. The armor of a Christian is noticeable by the attitudes, the good works and the good example that the Christian stands for. The armor of evil is deceit, facade, false quests that end only in self-love and self-destruction. This armor only protects evil. Always think of the armor you carry and wear, and what this armor does for the Salvation of your Soul. The finest most protective ingredient for a safe armor is obedience to Gods Ten Commandments, living a life dedicated and committed to purity,…
View Entire TeachingWhen God handed Moses the Ten Commandments, the voluminous amounts of interpretations, misinterpretations that God instructed Moses to expound upon when he delivered These Commandments to mankind related to every facet of mans thinking, of mans actions, of mans moods, of mans intellect, of mans degree of Faith, of mans Spiritual conquests, of mans weaknesses, of mans total makeup. There are many approaches to reviewing and examining ones conscience, using the basic Commandments of God as The Rules determining whether or not ones acts, actions, thoughts, words, or deeds, were in any way offensive to God through man, or directly…
View Entire TeachingWe pride ourselves on our ability to think, to make decisions, and to be independent. We many times respond violently when it is suggested we are not responding with a full deck. People who depend upon surrogates are most certainly not playing with a full deck. In our society, surrogates are prospering financially, and in spite of the supposed independence of so many people in this day and age, these supposedly intelligent people are falling prey and becoming dependent upon surrogates for what they think is a healthier acceptance of life; of course, eliminating the moral issue that should be…
View Entire TeachingToday in Holy Mother Church it is sad to say that some of the clergy have permitted, promoted and encouraged a stalemate of vindictiveness between the faithful and themselves. Why, when true, sound Christianity is charity, love thy neighbor, and trust in God? How can men justify a stalemate of vindictiveness against those who disagree with modification and updating that does not encourage a desire to love God more, does not accentuate obedience to Gods Ten Commandments, and does not create an atmosphere for more devotion, more piety, more prayer, more understanding, and more practice of self-control and self-discipline? We…
View Entire Teaching“When we think of Heaven, we automatically think of a panoramic view of total paradise. Our intellect, our imagination, our artistic nature, develops a vision of total loveliness, grandeur, almost inconceivable in concept. Even this panoramic feeling, and wishful thinking, is far from the full concept Heaven is. Our looking forward to being a part of such a Magnificent Place, topping this with the Presence of God, how can we allow ourselves the slightest moment or act of impurity? While we live on earth, we enjoy beautiful things. We are attracted to panoramic views of the mountains, the sea, and…
View Entire TeachingMoses was not a Christian, he was a Hebrew, and yet Moses was entrusted with the very foundation of Christianity, The Ten Commandments. When Moses received The Ten Commandments from God, Moses belief in The Ten Commandments, understanding of The Ten Commandments, and ability to explain The Ten Commandments to mankind was not based on Christian doctrine or dogma, but on sound Faith, sound values and sound standards for life that Moses was not only conscious of, but were innate in Moses so that when God delivered these Ten Commandments to Moses, Moses had the foundation and basic ability to…
View Entire TeachingChristianity began with the Laws of God, this being the foundation to be practiced by all mankind, emphasizing the Supremacy of God and that only One True God existed, binding all men to the same Rules and the same Goal of life for Eternal Life with Him. The idea of a One World Church is unrealistic, because of the maze of religious beliefs that are different in orthodox behavior or are out of the realm of Christian beliefs. There are so many contradictions in Spiritual thinking and practices, all making up a web of conflicting ideas that attract different groups,…
View Entire TeachingThe word priest was not a new word that had its first appearance in the time of Our Lord. It was used in many generations before this, dignifying a persons position, vocation, or status amongst the people. We connect the word priest with Holy Mother Church because Our Lord put a Christian significance, dignity, honor, and special Spiritual teaching of privileges to this position in Christian practice. The men who walked with Our Lord were men of all commitments in life, all with definite personalities, and each man was used to practicing his own will according to the customs and…
