‘THE PASSION AND CRUCIFIXION OF JESUS CHRIST AND THE SEVEN LAST WORDS FROM THE CROSS’ By St. ALPHONSUS de LIGUORI; points 2; pp. 12-13; part I [Saint Alphonsus Maria de Liguori – XVII – XVIII Century AD; born: Marianella, Kingdom of Naples/died: Pagani, Kingdom of Naples; (aged 90); spiritual writer, composer, musician, artist, poet, lawyer, scholastic philosopher, and theologian, Founder, Bishop, Doctor of the Church] VII. THE SEVEN WORDS SPOKEN BY JESUS CHRIST ON THE CROSS 2. "Amen I say to you, this day you shall be with Me in paradise." (Lk 23:43) St. Luke writes that of the two thieves who were [282] crucified with Jesus Christ, one continued obstinate, the other was converted; and seeing his miserable companion blaspheming Jesus Christ, and saying, If You are the Christ, save Yourself and us, he turned and reproved him, saying that they were deservedly punished, but that Jesus was innocent. Then he turned to Jesus himself and said, Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom …Vairāk
He /good thief/ exercised penitence together with the confession of his sins, saying, We indeed justly; for we received the due reward of our deeds. St. Augustine observes that before [283] his confession he had not boldness to hope for pardon; he did not dare to say Remember me, until, by the confession of his guilt, he had thrown off the burden of his sins. On this St. Athanasius exclaims, O blessed thief, you have stolen a kingdom by that confession!
Leona XIV personāla lēmums ir „smags grēks”. Tomass Miruss, „konservatīvā” portāla CatholicCulture.com galvenais redaktors, X komentēja Leona XIV lēmumu iecelt māsu Mēriju Baronu par Pāvestisko misiju biedrību (Missio) prezidenti. Gan pirms iecelšanas, gan divas nedēļas pēc tam māsa Mērija aizstāvēja sieviešu ordināciju. 20. oktobrī viņa teica EWTN: „Šodien sievietes var dzirdēt aicinājumu uz priesterību. Dažas no lielajām svētajām sievietēm arī dzirdēja šo aicinājumu. Tātad man jautājums ir – kā mēs Baznīcā varam veicināt šo atziņas procesu?” Mirus komentēja šo interviju: „Es uzskatu, ka ikviens, kurš ieceļ šo sievieti vai ļauj viņai turpināt ieņemt šo amatu, apzinoties viņas ķecerīgos uzskatus, izdara smagu grēku.” Viņš piebilda: „Tāpēc es jau senāk teicu, ka nevar būt ‘labs pāvests’, ja ļauj notikt šādām lietām, neatkarīgi no tā, cik daudz pamācošu garīgu vārdu tu varētu teikt savās sprediķos.” Mākslīgā intelekta tulkojums

Show Mercy Now, Receive God's Mercy St. James emphasizes the importance of mercy, stating that we will be judged by the same standard of mercy we extend to others. True faith, as James explains, is not just belief but also action, demonstrated through kindness and understanding towards others. By being merciful, we align ourselves with God’s will and continue the work of Jesus Christ. Fr.

“To every American, and to everyone watching France burn from abroad: Do not blame the French people for this. We never asked for it. We never voted for it. And the one time we were clearly asked, we said no. Here are the numbers your media won't show you. 70% of the French say there are too many immigrants in France today. 79% want a tougher immigration policy. 77% disapprove of the government's record on immigration. 83% want foreign criminals and long-term unemployed foreigners sent home. And no, it's not just the old. 69% of French 18 to 24 year olds support suspending legal immigration for three years. This is not a fringe. This is the French people. In 2005, we were asked if we wanted the European Constitution. 55% voted no. Three years later, our politicians passed the same text under another name, through parliament, without ever asking us again. That is modern France in one sentence. The people say no. The elites do it anyway. So who is responsible? The politicians who lied to …Vairāk
Ebreju kolonistu uzbrukumi palestīniešiem nav atsevišķi gadījumi, un, neraugoties uz Izraēlas amatpersonu nosodījumiem, vardarbība turpinās, ko veicina pastāvīgā vainīgo nesodāmība. Jeruzalemes patriarhi un baznīcu vadītāji izdeva kopīgu paziņojumu pēc 17. oktobra kolonistu uzbrukuma kristiešu ciematam Tajbeh. Viņi uzsver, ka šis uzbrukums nebija atsevišķs gadījums, bet gan daļa no plašākas kolonistu vardarbības pret palestīniešu ciemiem visā Rietumkrastā, kas pastiprinās olīvu ražas laikā. Baznīcu vadītāji atzīst, ka Izraēlas prezidents Isaaks Hercogs nosodīja vardarbību un ka Izraēlas policija veica arestus. Tomēr viņi brīdina, ka kolonistu uzbrukumi turpinās, jo vainīgie bauda nesodāmību, kas rada nopietnas bažas par Izraēlas tiesībaizsardzības iestāžu efektivitāti. Visbeidzot, viņi nosoda nesen publicēto reliģisko lēmumu, kas ļauj ebrejiem paņemt palestīniešu olīvas, nosaucot to par „ļoti satraucošu un bīstamu, kā arī absolūti nepieņemamu”. Baznīcas vadītāji aicina starptautisko …Vairāk

THE SEVEN WORDS SPOKEN BY JESUS CHRIST ON THE CROSS 2. "Amen I say to you, this day you shall be with Me in paradise." (Lk 23:43) This holy penitent also exercised other noble virtues; he preached, declaring the innocence of Jesus Christ, This man has done no evil. He exercised love to God, receiving death with resignation, as the punishment due to his sins, saying, We receive the due reward of our deeds. Hence St. Cyprian, St. Jerome, and St. Augustine do not scruple to call him a martyr; and Silveira says that this happy thief was a true martyr, as the executioners …Vairāk
"O my Jesus! henceforth I sacrifice to You my life, and I seek for grace to enable me, at the hour of my death, to unite the sacrifice of my life to that which You did offer to God upon the cross, and through which I hope to die in Your grace, and, loving You with pure love stripped of every earthly affection, to attain to love You with all my powers through all eternity."
Russia has a right to act legally and entitled to act to retaliate. If I give a weapon to someone, knowing that they're going to kill with it, I'm jointly responsible. So Britain - through Prime Minister 'Bomber' Burnham - has admitted to several murders inside Russian territory George Galloway says Russia has the right absolutely legally entitled to act and take retaliatory measures against Britain. But counting on the good graces of President Putin in not doing what he is legally entitled to do in punishing Britain. Putin didn't do anything so far to anyone. Including Poland who tried to kill an officer in Russia. He knows who is behind the killing of many children and civilians. But it's his desire for peace that prevents him from retaliating against anyone knowing it would lead to a WW. Which He does not want for anyone. The Russians are being attacked by us, not the other way round ---
Willy Wimmer, former German defense official and key player in reunification, who exposes how U.S. and NATO betrayal after the Cold War lit the fuse for today’s Ukraine conflict. Wimmer reveals how American elites planned NATO expansion and even the breakup of Russia, long before the current war, turning Europe into a battleground for U.S. global dominance. He warns: the same forces pushing for war then are pushing harder now. He calls on Europe to reclaim its sovereignty, reject escalation, and embrace peace.

Vatican Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad visited the Jain temple at the Oshwal Centre in Potters Bar, near London, on October 20.

Lai gan pāvests Leo XIV joprojām atgūstas no vēža operācijas, viņš šodien lietainajā dienā ar pāvesta automašīnu brauca cauri Svētā Pētera laukumam, sveicinot svētceļniekus. Savā pirmajā trešdienas vispārējā audiencē kopš hospitalizācijas viņš teica: „Pirmā lieta, ko vēlos jums teikt, ir – paldies! Paldies par jūsu lūgšanām un atbalstu. Paldies Dievam par Viņa dāsnumu.”

"It was a very unscientific and harmful report." HJA Ruissen condemns the Forbidden Colours "Hate Review" — a report riddled with lies and inaccuracies about hundreds of Christian organisations. He rightly asks: Why is the EU funding groups who vilify certain viewpoints simply because they are Christian? @Jugend für das Leben
