An
Empty Celebration
The
following is an email sent to a pastor in my zone who invited me to
his celebration of 50 years as a priest.
Two
weeks after I sent this email, Don Stefano came to me, together with
Don Vincenzo, October 15, 2018, to convince me to come to their
weekly meetings every Monday. I said to them that my answer is the
same as the email that I sent to Don Stefano two weeks ago. At that
point Don Vincenzo asked me to send this email to him.
Dear
Don Vincenzo,
Thank
you for your visit yesterday.
When
you invited me to your meeting Monday, I said that my answer is the
same as the email that I sent to Don Stefano two weeks ago.
While
you sought to encourage me to come to your meeting Monday, in order
to overcome my possible objections, among other things, you said:
“EVERYTHING IS RELATIVE;
what is important is to be together”. Fundamentally this is the
theme of my email to Don Stefano: “everything is relative”. For
the great majority of Catholics today, “everything is relative”,
even God is relative for the great majority of people today. But God
is the Truth (Jn 14:6), and thus for a great number of Catholics
today, the Truth (of God, not the “truth” (small “t”) of men
or of the world, is relative!!! But with people, very numerous, who
have let themselves take the easier and more gratifying way of
subjectivism and relativism, there is a profound blindness of the
great danger of putting aside the Truth (of God, big “T”) (2Thess
2:11-12; Dan 12:8-10) which truly sets us free (Jn 8:32)!
Here
is the email that I sent to Don Stefano on September 29, 2018:

Dear
Don Stefano,
I
thank you for inviting me to your celebration of 50 years as a priest
September 30, 2018. But for the motives
for which I left your parish of Magione on September 23, 2014, I will
not come to your celebration. You never answered my objections and
reservations for my leaving your parish according to the Truth well
summarized in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. You never want to
dialogue with me to understand what I am trying to say, so as to seek
together the Truth or the prudent solution in a certain situation. At
your celebrations, dinners and meetings, JESUS
CHRIST, THE TRUTH OF GOD, NOT OF MAN, IS NEVER INVITED!
Since
2002 up to four years ago I celebrated
the daily holy mass, Monday to Saturday in your parish of Magione. In
the last 5 to 6 years before going away you often reprimanded me
after the Mass at the bar after having listened to my homilies from
the confessional. But when I tried to explain myself with the
documents of the Catholic Church, or from the Catechism of the
Catholic Church for adults (CCC, ed. 1992), you did not want to hear
what is found in these documents. When I offered a few of my writings
that I posted on the Internet to explain myself better, with many
references to the documents of the Church, you never wanted to see
these things. You
NEVER said to me:
“Father Joe, I believe that this phrase that you said (or wrote)
during your homily today is in contrast with a document of the
Church”, and then to offer me the reference to a document of the
Church or from the CCC to help me discover the Truth according to God
in the documents of the Church. And thus, already for years, you did
not allow me to explain myself or to defend myself with these
precious documents of the Church.
Finally
on September 23, 2014, after the Holy Mass at the bar, you
finally had the courage to at least threaten me
if I wanted to continue to celebrate the Holy Mass in your parish.
Already for a good while I did not want to be in this painful
situation, but I did not believe that it was prudent or the will of
God for me to decide to go away by myself and thus I waited for the
indications from you. Thus when you threatened me, I was by now ready
and happy to ask you immediately if this was an empty threat or not.
You answered me that it was not an empty threat. I said at the bar:
“OK I will not return for the Mass here at Magione, and I said have
a nice day to all present!” And I left. I thought that finally I
would have a little peace to be able to remain faithful to the Truth
Who is Jesus Christ (Jn14:6) without your threats and bad treatment,
but you telephoned the bishop (“The Hidden Broad Road to
Perdition”;
http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2015/05/road-perdition.html).
You say you are a Christian and to be a member of the Focolare
Movement; Chiara Lubich often said that one must “make himself one
with the other person”, to seek to understand the point of view of
the other person, in order to have true love non false love!!! Your
dictatorial ways are tremendous! Are you able to realize how you
would feel if I did the same thing to you, or are you not able to
“make yourself one” as Chiear Lubich said many times as the way
to have true love? Where is your
willingness to dialogue together between two brother priests
so as to understand how this priest, Father Joe, thinks and his
motives, instead of telephoning the bishop, and to seek what Jesus
wants together in each situation while making reference to the
documents of the Church, to the writings of the saints and of the
popes?!? Your way of doing things is “the dictatorship of
relativism” as Pope Benedict XVI called it.
I
was ordained a priest first of all for the universal Church,
not just for a parish, and thus in the Holy Mass and in the Sacrament
of Reconciliation, I must behave as if before the Lord, who in the
end will be my Judge for all eternity. But a pastor certainly has the
right to decide who can celebrate the sacraments in his parish; if
you believe that Father Joe offers obstacle for the souls to arrive
to the Truth, who is Jesus, in order to arrive to heaven, it is
necessary to ask Father Joe to not offer anymore the sacraments in
your parish!
A
few times you criticized me because I did not say the words “Pope
Francis” during my homilies. But you,
during your homilies, do not make reference to the CCC (as does Don
Luke D. and a great number of priests and bishops today) or to the
things which do the most harm to the souls entrusted to you, mortal
sin! You do not make reference to those truths of God that your
friends do not want to hear. You have put aside in silence Jesus
Christ Who is the Truth (Jn 14:6)! This silence is a very grave
betrayal to the souls entrusted to you!!! This silence, with great
consequences to the souls, is exactly what one reads in this
liturgical period (every year in September) from St. Augustine, in
the Office of Readings, from the “Sermon of on the Shepherds”!!!
Does the Truth come from God or from the Church? Is the Church the
handmaid of the Truth or the Author of the Truth??? Your celebrations
of 50 years as a priest or of the parish celebration of Saint Clement
are empty because you do not speak of the uncomfortable Truth who is
Jesus Crucified, Jesus Forsaken, as Chiara Lubich often said in the
Focolare Movement, of which you say you are a part of!!!
WHAT
WOULD YOU THINK OF A DOCTOR WHO CARED NOTHING ABOUT DISEASE and sends
home the patients with grave sicknesses saying to not to worry
because THE DOCTOR DOES NOT WANT TO
SCARE OR UPSET THE PATIENT. Such
doctors would be called quakes,
incompetents, guilty of gross professional negligence; they would be
sued for malpractice. But if priests do not speak about the only
thing that can kill the soul, mortal sin, because the people
(spiritual patients) do not want to hear these things, what would we
think about such priests? If the doctor acts in this way, the person
could lose his life; but if the doctor of souls, the priest, does
like this, the person could loose his immortal which last for all
eternity!
How
many times during the Mass do we say: “Lamb
of God who takes away the sins of the world”?
If there is no longer sin, we do not need a Savior who came above all
to free us from sin. If the priest never speaks about sin and about
the consequences of mortal sin, people no longer come to confess
their sins because their spiritual doctor did not help them to
realize they have this mortal sickness. Exorcists tell us that the
Sacrament of Reconciliation is more powerful to drive away the devil
than an exorcism, because Confession is a Sacrament, exorcism is a
sacramental.
“To
The Priests OUR LADY’s
Beloved Sons” (http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/):
“Today
my Heart bleeds to see how SACRILEGIOUS
COMMUNIONS are spreading more and more,
because many come to receive Jesus in the Eucharist in a state of
mortal sin without having gone to confession” (December 8, 1997).
“It
can be said that there is no longer any Eucharistic celebration where
SACRILEGIOUS COMMUNIONS
are not made. If you only saw with my eyes how great this wound is
which has contaminated the whole Church and paralyzes it, halts it,
and makes it impure and so very sick!” (August 8, 1986).
Our
Lady of Fatima, in the first apparition of May 13, 1917, said: “Do
you wish to offer yourselves to God, to endure all the suffering that
He may please to send you, as an act of reparation
for the sins by which He is offended, and to ask for the conversion
of sinners?" "Yes, we do."
said the children. "You will have to suffer a lot, but the grace
of God will be your comfort.” After a few moments Our Lady added:
"Recite the rosary every day to obtain the peace for the world
and the end of the war."
In
a secularized world there is also added the
negation of hell on the part of many theologians,
justifying everything by saying that God is Merciful, and thus it is
impossible to speak of hell as an eternal condition of the damned.
All of this has produced an effect, the loss of the consciousness of
sin, thus above all a great number of youth no longer have points of
reference; thus one lives in sin, one dies in sin! Our Lady in the
third apparition at Fatima (July 1917), asked with insistence: “Pray,
pray a lot and offer sacrifices for the sinners. You know that many
souls go the hell because there is no one who prays for them."
Our Lady showed hell to the true seers. Lucy declared after that
vision that they would have died of fright if there had not been a
particular grace from God.
God
does not send anyone to hell; a great number of people today do not
want to be with God, because, “I am
in charge”, not God. The people who do not have time to pray, or do
not pray sincerely, “MY will be done”!, instead of “THY will be
done”, do not want to be with God in this short life and also not
for eternity. “The chief punishment of hell is eternal separation
from God” (CCC 1035).
“To
The Priests OUR LADY’s
Beloved Sons” (http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/):
“The
aim of ecclesiastical Masonry is that of justifying sin,
of presenting it no longer as an evil but as something good and of
value. Thus one is advised to do this as a way of satisfying the
exigencies of one's own nature, destroying the root from which
repentance could be born, and is told that it is no longer necessary
to confess it. The pernicious fruit of this accursed cancer, which
has spread throughout the whole Church, is the disappearance
everywhere of individual confession. Souls are led to live in sin,
rejecting the gift of life which Jesus has offered us. (…)
And
so ecclesiastical Masonry, in many and subtle ways, seeks
to attack the ecclesial devotion towards the sacrament of the
Eucharist. It gives value only to the
meal aspect, tends to minimize its sacrificial value, seeks to deny
the real and personal presence of Jesus in the consecrated Host. In
this way there are gradually suppressed all the external signs which
are indicative of faith in the real presence of Jesus in the
Eucharist, such as genuflections, hours of public adoration and the
holy custom of surrounding the tabernacle with lights and flowers”
(June 13, 1989).
The
importance of warning the sinner: Saint
Augustine: “Do you want to be astray; do you want to be lost? How
much better is my not wanting this, I am bold to say so; I am
importunate.” (Sermon of St. Augustine on the Shepherds; Office of
Readings, Week 25, OT, Monday). Mother Angelica, the foundress of
EWTN, said this often on world wide TV.
"So
you, son of man, I have made a watchman
for the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you
shall give them warning from me. If I say to the wicked, O wicked
man, you shall surely die, and you do
not speak to warn the wicked to turn from his way,
that wicked man shall die in his iniquity, but his blood I will
require at your hand. 9 But if you warn the wicked to turn from his
way, and he does not turn from his way; he shall die in his iniquity,
but YOU WILL HAVE SAVED YOUR LIFE”
(Ezek 33:7-9).
“For
what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and forfeits
his life? (Mt 16:26; Mk 8:36). Satan has convinced a great number of
priests and bishops today that the devil and hell do not exist, or at
least if hell exists, it is empty!!! “The whole of man’s history
has been the story of DOUR COMBAT with
the powers of evil” (CCC 409).
(“Forbidden To Speak About Sin”;
http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2016/09/forbidden-to-speak-about-sin.html).
To
fight in a battle, is it not prudent and necessary to know not only
your own weapons, tactics and strategy but also the weapons, tactics
and strategy of the enemy? It was
recounted to Pope John Paul II that the Vatican's chief exorcist,
Father Gabriele Amorth, “knows too many
bishops who do not believe in the Devil”. The Pope replied bluntly:
“ANYONE WHO DOES NOT BELIEVE IN THE
DEVIL DOES NOT BELIEVE IN THE GOSPEL”.
When asked “What do you see as Satan’s greatest success?”,
Amorth replied: “The fact that he has managed to convince people
that he does not exist. He has almost managed it, even within the
Church. We have a clergy and an Episcopate who no longer believe in
the Devil , in exorcism, in the exceptional evil the Devil can
instill, or even in the power that Jesus bestowed to cast out demons.
For three centuries the Latin Church – in
contrast to the Orthodox Church and the various Protestant
professions – has almost totally abandoned the ministry of
exorcism. So because they no longer perform exorcisms, or study them,
and never having seen them, the clergy no longer believe in them. And
they no longer believe in the Devil. We have entire Episcopates
trying to counter exorcism. We have countries completely devoid of
exorcists, such as Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Spain and Portugal.
This is a shameful shortfall.”;

“Those
who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I
came not to call the righteous, but sinners”
(Mk 2:17-22; Lk 5:32; Mt 9:14-17). “For the Son of man came to seek
and to save the lost” (Lk 19:10). Satan has convinced a great
number of Christians today that they are not lost in sin, and thus do
not seek a Savior!
My
life has been a journey of seeking the truth
which you can see in my abundant articles. While I was discovering
the saving truths of God in a world and in a Church more full of
confusion than ever before, I began to preach these truths in my
parishes. After having been sent away from one parish after another,
in the end the Bishop of Perugia took away my last little parish (Cf.
http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2015/05/road-perdition.html;
http://cibo-spir.blogspot.it/2016/11/festa-falsa.html;
http://cibo-spir.blogspot.it/2014/01/attirare-la-gente-chi.html;
https://youtu.be/OhcOkeUhmsA),
because today, more than ever, the first priority is to please the
people, not God who is the Truth (Jn 14:6). Almost everywhere in the
Catholic Church today, the religion is rather the cult of man instead
of the cult of God!
Even
though Jesus offered his immense mercy, Jesus never offered
compromises with the Truth.
In
the final message of the Blessed Virgin, October 13, 1973, on the
anniversary of the last apparition and of the miracle of Fatima, at
Akita, Japan, she said to Sister Agnes Sasagawa: “The
work of the devil will infiltrate even the Church in such a way that
one will see cardinals opposing cardinals, bishops against other
bishops. The priests who venerate Me will be scorned and opposed by
their conferees, churches and altars sacked, THE
CHURCH WILL BE FULL OF THOSE WHO ACCEPT COMPROMISE
and the demon will press many priests and consecrated souls to leave
the service of the Lord”
(http://www.miraclerosarymission.org/akita.htm).
A
great number of priests and bishops today do not speak about the
parts of the Gospel and of the Catechism of the Catholic Church for
adults which their friends and parishioners do not want to hear!!!
But did God give us the Ten Commandments for our good or for our
evil?!? Do we trust God or do we trust ourselves or the world?!?
These half truths are false love, false mercy, misguided compassion
and false ecumenism which do not lead toward the Truth which truly
makes us free now and forever (Jn 8:32), but to the truth according
to the world, which offers us our comfort and our pleasure today
without personal responsibility and the consequences of living in our
egoism. But tomorrow and for eternity there is the worst of slavery!
The great majority of priests and bishops today follow men, not God.
The great majority of priests and bishops today are “DUMB
DOGS, THEY CANNOT BARK’ (Is 56:10);
they do not protect the sheep from the wolf disguised as a lamb,
disguised as pastors! Behold what Pope St. Gregory the Great (Office
of Readings; Sunday, Week 27 of OT), says about these very numerous
priests and bishops today:
“A
religious leader should be careful in deciding when to remain silent
and be sure to say something useful when deciding to speak. In this
way he will avoid saying things that would be better not said, or
leaving unsaid things that ought to be said. For, just as thoughtless
remarks can lead people into error, so also ill-advised silence can
leave people in their error, when they could have been shown where
they were wrong. Negligent religious
leaders are often afraid to speak freely and say what needs to be
said – for fear of losing favor with people. As Truth himself says,
they are certainly not guarding their flock with the care expected of
a shepherd but are acting like hirelings, because hiding behind a
wall of silence is like taking flight at the approach of the wolf.
These are the people whom the Lord is reproaching through the
prophet, when he says: ‘THEY ARE ALL
DUMB DOGS, THEY CANNOT BARK’ (Is
56:10) … If a religious leader is afraid to say what is right, what
else can his silence mean but that he has taken flight? Whereas, if
he stand firm in defense of his flock, he is building up a wall for
the house of Israel against its enemies. And so again the sinful
people are told: ‘Your prophets have seen false and foolish visions
for you; they have not exposed your iniquity in order to provoke you
to repentance.’ (Lam 2:14) …”
Here
is what Saint Augustine says:
“WHAT
KIND OF MEN ARE THEY who, FEARING TO
HURT THOSE THEY SPEAK TO, not only do
not prepare them for imminent temptations, but even promise the
happiness of this world, which God did not promise to the world
itself?” (Sermon of St. Augustine on the Shepherds; Office of
Readings, Week 24, OT, Friday).
“
“The weak you have not strengthened” (Ez
34:4), says the Lord. He is speaking to
the wicked shepherds, the false
shepherds, those who seek their own advantage, not what is Christ’s.
Happy in the benefit of mik and wool, they
take no care of the sheep at all, not
heal the sick” (Sermon of St. Augustine on the Shepherds; Office of
Readings, Week 25, OT, Sunday).
Here
is what Pope John Paul II says:
POPE
JOHN PAUL II (AMONG MANY OTHER
OCCASIONS) SPOKE FIRMLY TO THE US BISHOPS AGAINST THIS "PICK
AND CHOOSE SMORGASBORD TYPE CATHOLICISM"
in LA in his September 1987 visit: "It is sometimes reported
that a large number of Catholics today do not adhere to the teaching
of the Church on a number of questions, notably sexual and conjugal
morality, divorce and remarriage. Some are reported as not accepting
the Church's clear position on abortion. It has also been noted that
there is a tendency on the part of some Catholics to be selective in
their adherence to the Church's moral teachings. It is sometimes
claimed that dissent from the Magisterium is totally compatible with
being a “good Catholic” and poses no obstacle to the reception of
the sacraments. THIS IS A GRAVE ERROR
that challenges the teaching office of the bishops of the United
States and elsewhere. I wish to encourage you in the love of Christ
to address this situation courageously in your pastoral ministry,
relying on the power of God's truth to attract assent and on the
grace of the Holy Spirit which is given both to those who proclaim
the message and to those to whom it is addressed."
(http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/speeches/1987/september/documents/hf_jp-ii_spe_19870916_vescovi-stati-uniti_en.html).
It
is interesting that Pope John Paul II
did not say to the bishops that they must obey me as Pope or “my
magisterium”, but “dissent from the Magisterium” of the
Catholic Church! Lumen Gentium 25
teaches clearly that the documents of an ecumenical council ARE
INFALLIBLE (CCC 891). The Catechism of
the Catholic Church (CCC 888-892) tell us that the doctrines of the
Church are essential to arrive to sanctity. “When
the Church through its supreme Magisterium proposes a doctrine “for
belief as being divinely revealed,” and as the teaching of Christ,
the definitions “must be adhered to with the obedience of faith.”
This infallibility extends as far as the deposit of divine Revelation
itself” (CCC 891). But to the ordinary teaching of the Church “the
faithful are to adhere to it with religious assent” which, though
distinct from the assent of faith, is nonetheless an extension of it”
(CCC 892). Thus the documents in an
ecumenical council express in human language the absolute truths
which cannot be changed, EVEN BY A FUTURE POPE FOR APPARENTLY GOOD
MOTIVES TO MAKE THE NON CATHOLICS FEEL MORE AT EASE or for non
practicing Catholics; this would be false ecumenism, false mercy,
false love, which offers a superficial and easy solution without the
cross of Jesus, but afterwards there is slavery and destruction!
Even
though today we hear very little, the saints warn us often of the
great danger of different doctrines
(1Tim1:1-5), diabolical doctrines (1Tim 4:1-5), diverse and strange
teachings (Heb 13:9), false and suspect doctrines and beautiful lies
of the devil (Saint Ignatius of Antioch; Office of Readings, Week 16,
OT, Monday and Tuesday), false apostles (2Cor 11:13), false brethren
(2Cor 11:26).
How
well Saint Paul described the great majority of Catholics today!!! “I
am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in
the grace of Christ and TURNING TO A DIFFERENT GOSPEL, not that there
is another gospel, but there are some who trouble you and want to
pervert the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from
heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we
preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now
I say again, If any one is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that
which you received, let him be accursed. AM I NOW SEEKING THE FAVOR
OF MEN, OR OF GOD? OR AM I TRYING TO
PLEASE MEN? If I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant
of Christ. For I would have you know, brethren, that the gospel which
was preached by me is not man's * gospel. For I did not receive it
from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of
Jesus Christ” (Gal 1:6-12).
Saint
Michael the Archangel at Garabandal, sent by Our Lady, (Spain, 1965)
said: “Many Cardinal, many Bishops and
many Priests are on the road to perdition and with them they are
bringing many souls”! Three years later there was the great
rebellion against “Humanae Vitae” which maintained the perennial
teaching of the Church that to use contraceptives is a mortal sin!
The
“Prophecy” of Saint Francis d’Assisi
(http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2013/11/prophecy-st-francis.html):
“2.
The power of the demons will be greater than usual, the immaculate
purity of our religious community and of others, will wither to the
point that very few Christians will want
to OBEY the TRUE Sovereign Pontiff and
the Roman Church with a sincere heart and perfect charity. At the
decisive moment of this crisis, a
personage not canonically elected,
raised to the Pontificate, will
endeavor to administer shrewdly to many the mortal poison of his
error.
7.
Some preachers will keep
silent about the truth
and, denying the truth, they will trample upon the truth. The
sanctity of life will be held in derision by those who only profess
it outwardly, and for this reason Our
Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a worthy Pastor, but a
destroyer.”
Saint
Catherine of Siena tells us: “Proclaim
the truth and do not be silent through fear”!
During
the centuries of human existence, God
has revealed his Truth which “sets us free”
(Jn 8:32); we call this Divine Revelation. God sent his only Son
Jesus who founded a Church, the Catholic Church, to guide us in
interpreting Divine Revelation according to God, not according to the
very numerous opinions of men and of women, who are very often not
inspired by pure love of God and neighbor, nor by true humility.
Divine Revelation has been written down, with the guidance of the
Holy Spirit for 2000 years, in the documents of the Church, and well
summarized in the Catechism of the Catholic Church for adults (CCC;
ed. 1992, promulgated by Pope John Paul II;
http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/_INDEX.HTM).
The world today is more full of
falsehoods than ever before: beautiful
deadly lies from “the father of lies” (Jn 8:44) presented as if
they were the truth, hidden destructive deceptions (such as the
devil, hell and sin no longer exist!!!), misguided compassion and
HALF TRUTHS
(which are worse than lies!), especially to speak only about mercy
without “Go and sin no more” (Jn 8:11; 5:14).
“The
father of lies”, Satan (Jn 8:44), has slowly led us to neglect
these precious truths and to change these divine saving truths with
compromise after compromise. In the Old Testament and in the New
Testament, when the people of God did this, afterwards (not
immediately), the consequences were terrible! We have slowly
forgotten this and we do not want to realize that we have let
ourselves slide and detach ourselves from the uncomfortable Truth of
God and to embrace the easy “truth” of the world and the “truth”
that we want in the name of “God” in the Church, in the name of
religion. “Everyone does it”, and so it is OK! We are like
spoiled arrogant children who no longer listen to their parents. What
will happen, after, to the Church and to the world this time in our
period of time, after the “great tribulation” (Mt
24:21)?
Pope
John Paul II said to a group of pilgrims in
Fulda, West Germany, in November 1980, speaking about the secrets of
Fatima, that: “We have to be prepared to suffer, before long, great
trials which will require of us the disposition to sacrifice even our
life for Christ. Through your prayers and mine, it is still possible
to diminish this trial (predicted at Fatima), but it is no longer
possible to avert it, because only in
this manner can the Church be effectively renewed. How many times
has the renewal of the Church been brought about in blood!
It will not be different this time.”
“WE
LEARN FROM HISTORY that we do not learn from history” - Georg
Hegel. “Those who do not remember the
past are condemned to repeat it” – George Stantayana. This is
because most people do not want to pay the price to change their
lives according to God’s revealed Truth, and so they slowly embrace
the easier philosophy of life, “Ignorance is Bliss”, which is
always accompanied by more spiritual blindness! Very few people today
realize, or want to realize, the great
devastation caused by changing or
ignoring even an “iota” (Mt 5:17-18; 24, 35) of the laws of God
which were given to us for our true good!!!
“To
be deep in history is the cease to be protestant”
– Cardinal Blessed John Henry Newman. But very few protestants want
to become deep in history and open their eyes with the risk of being
challenged to having to change their lives with the consequences of
much suffering. Human nature is the same today as it was in the time
of Moses. God gave us the Ten Commandments for our true good, not for
our evil. “For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass
away, not an iota, not a dot,
will pass from the law until all is accomplished” (Mt 5:17-18; 24,
35). St. John Bosco indicates this dangerous slide along the easier
way down: “The longer you stay away from Communion (the Eucharist),
the more the soul will become weak, and in the end you will become
dangerously indifferent.”
I
do not believe, Father Stefano, that you realize, or that you want to
realize, that we are the generation (Mt
24:34) of the “great tribulation” (Mt 24:21) of which Jesus spoke
about, when “if possible, even the elect” (Mt 24:24) will be led
astray. I do not believe, Father Stefano, that you realize, or that
you want to realize, that it is our generation of the great apostasy
of which Saint Paul wrote about in 2 Thess ch. 2. I do not believe,
Father Stefano, that you realize, or that you want to realize, how
far away the people in the Church are from the Truth and from living
the Truth, and thus far away from God!!! It seems that the only thing
that counts for you and for your friends is to be comfortable in this
short life, and that it is not necessary to dialogue with sincere
people who are not in agreement with you, or to seek to discover and
to do the will of God which is found in Divine Revelation explained
well in the Doctrines of the Church and well summarized in the CCC!
For
you Don Stefano, like so many Catholics today, totally immersed in
subjectivism and relativism, one no longer obeys the perennial
teachings of the Catholic Church if “I”
am not in agreement, as if I am GOD!
This is always the same perennial temptation of Satan (Gen 3:4-5)!
When I spoke about these things with you, you always responded with
our opinion or objection without ever making reference to the
documents of the Church!!! As a priest, do you represent yourself or
the Catholic Church?!? You were not content when I gave you a few
months ago my article, “The History of
Communion in the Hand” - Communion in the hand was not only started
in disobedience, but was perpetuated by deception!
(http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2016/12/history-communion-in-hand.html).
You have never made any indication whatsoever to try to discover
together what God might want in this situation!!! You
never asked me to see and to read the documents of the Church
regarding the argument at hand! Don
Stefano, WE ARE NOT PART OF THE SAME RELIGION!!!
Your religion is centered on man and what man wants; my religion is
centered on God and what God wants!!! Today in the great apostasy
(2Thess 2:3) the great majority of Catholics are in the cult of man
instead of the cult of God! If I follow the Magisterium of the Church
of 2000 years ONLY TO THE POINT THAT I
AM IN AGREEMENT, or the ideas and
opinions and beliefs and desires of my friends or my group or the
head of a movement who is not obedient, I,
Father Joe, will go to hell for all eternity!!!
After years of taking the easier way you are no longer used to
seeking the Truth outside of your head and making reference to Divine
Revelation but you have allowed yourself to slide into subjectivism
and relativism in which “YOUR truth”
is not in harmony with what you say with your mouth in the Our
Father: “THY
will be done”! God does not send anyone to hell; the people do not
want to be with God because they are the ones who command, not God in
their lives. But if everyone wants to command in that eternal place
separated from God, who commands in that place? The one who is the
strongest. But who is the strongest in hell? Satan! I prefer to be
under God, a benevolent dictatorship for eternity, than under Satan,
a malevolent dictatorship for all eternity!!!
After
many years of work to destroy the Catholic Church, Satan has
succeeded in leading a great number of Catholics into subjectivism
and relativism even more than the protestants!!!
On November 11,
2013, Archbishop Carlo Maria VIGANÒ,
the Apostolic Nuncio (Papal Ambassador) to the United States,
addressed the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops at their
annual fall meeting in Baltimore, Maryland.
Archbishop Viganò
quoted as “profoundly prophetic” remarks made by Blessed John
Paul II (then Cardinal Wojtyla) during the Eucharistic Congress on
Aug. 13, 1976 for the Bicentennial celebration of the signing of our
Declaration of Independence:
“We
are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation
humanity has ever experienced. I do not think that the wide circle of
the American Society, or the whole wide circle of the Christian
Community realize this fully. We are now facing the FINAL
CONFRONTATION between the Church and
the anti-church, between the gospel and the anti-gospel, between
Christ and the antichrist. The confrontation lies within the plans of
Divine Providence. It is, therefore, in God's Plan, and it must be a
trial which the Church must take up, and face courageously….”
(Cardinal Ivan Dias also quoted this at Lourdes, France, on December
13, 2007).
Archbishop Viganò
said that he viewed these words “as a
call to attentiveness, watchfulness and preparedness
for whatever proclaiming the Gospel may mean for us as successors of
the Apostles, who were called to give radical witness to their faith
in Jesus Christ.”
Jesus
never offered compromises even when there was the risk of losing many
followers. When many of his disciples
left him regarding the truth about the Eucharist, He did not offer
compromises with the truth (as do a great number of priests, bishops
and politicians today!), but He was even ready to lose His apostles:
“Will you also go away” (Jn 6:67)!
Following
the Truth even to the end, Jesus lost almost all of His followers,
His group of disciples and apostles, while He was dying on the cross,
humiliated and tortured. In this period, as we know, the Body of
Christ, the Church, will be crucified and buried as was Jesus 2000
years ago; then after there will be the resurrection of the purified
Church with the few people who remained faithful to the Truth (CCC
675-677). We find in the messages of Our Lady to Don Stefano Gobbi
that the true priests must be as Jesus in the period, victims for the
expiation of the Church, ready to lose all for Jesus, even their
followers or groups of people entrusted to them.
When
even the apostles at the beginning of their
walk with Christ were “amazed” and even “exceedingly
astonished” at the uncompromising words of Christ (Mk 10:
23-27), Christ did not do as the men (wimps)
that we see on TV today. Instead He said: “With
man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible”
(Mt 19:26; Mk 10:27; Lk 18:27).
“To The Priests OUR
LADY’s Beloved Sons” (through Don
Stefano Gobbi, September 8, 1985;
http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/):
“What
is it that is obscuring the beauty and the brightness of the Church?
It is the smoke of the errors which Satan has caused to enter into
it. These are becoming constantly more and more disseminated and are
bringing very many souls to the loss of the faith. The
cause of such a vast diffusion of errors and of this great apostasy
rests with unfaithful pastors. They
remain silent when they should speak with courage to condemn error
and to defend the truth. They do not intervene when they should be
unmasking the rapacious wolves who, hidden beneath the clothing of
lambs, have insinuated themselves into the flock of Christ. THEY
ARE MUTE DOGS who allow their flocks to
be torn to pieces. You, on the other hand, must speak out with force
and with courage to condemn error and to spread only the truth. The
time of your public and courageous witness has come”.
“To
The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons”
(http://our-lady-priests.blogspot.it/):
“How
many pastors there are today who no
longer defend the flock which has been entrusted to them by Jesus!
Some remain SILENT when they should
speak courageously to defend the truth and to condemn error and sin.
They tolerate to avoid risk; they descend to compromise simply to
maintain their privileges. Thus error is spread under the form of
ambiguous formulas, and reparation is no longer made for sin, in a
progressive apostasy from Jesus and from his Gospel.” (September
15, 1982; September 8, 1985; October 27, 1980; February 9, 1985;
October 7, 1990; February 26, 1991; June 8, 1991; September 8, 1982;
September 8, 1993).
“The
time has come to proclaim to all, with clarity and with courage, that
the sixth commandment given by God to Moses: `Do not commit impure
acts,' (cf.
Ex 20:14) still has its full force and
must be observed even by this corrupted and perverted generation.”
(Seattle (Washington, US.A.); June 2, 1987). Then in September 1987,
Pope John Paul II said the same thing to the bishops in LA,
California.
The
few priests today who preach the whole Gospel and all of the
teachings of the Magisterium of the Church are labeled
ridged and old-fashioned, insensitive, lacking in compassion,
divisive, judgmental, moralists. While
at the same time the ones who maintain a culpable silence,
the ones who tell their people what they think they want to hear are
seen as understanding, sympathetic, pastorally sensitive and
merciful. But this way of doing things is not true mercy!
I
prepared this written because I realized that you do not want to hear
something that is not in agreement with your opinion.
God
is with which people? The humble who
obey God or with who? Can we accept compromises if we want to remain
united with Jesus? A great number of Catholics today accept what is
comfortable, or for other hidden motives, choosing among the easy
teachings of the Church (leaving behind and putting aside the
difficult ones as Pope John Paul clearly warned about in 1987 in
L.A., California), and then they do something that seems good in the
Church to feel OK in their religion and before men; God is not with
these people even if in our eyes it seems that there are good fruits.
The Church has always taught that the
end never justifies the means!!!
Because if this were so, fundamentally, we trust in ourselves, not in
God!
“To
The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons”:
“To
walk along my way, there can be no
descending to compromise with evil,
because this road winds its way only over [the terrain] of enmity
between these two opposed realities. My Son Jesus becomes the sign of
this contradiction and has been given to you by the Father for the
salvation and the ruin of many. You are now living in obscure times,
because in all kinds of ways an attempt is being made to reach a
compromise between God and Satan, between good and evil, between the
spirit of Jesus and the spirit of the world. Many are running the
danger of becoming victims of this general confusion, and even in my
Church a false spirit, which is not that of Jesus the Son of God, is
seeking to spread itself about. Like a cloud of invisible poison gas,
a spirit which jumbles the things of God with those of the world is
expanding and succeeding in depriving the word of God of its vigor
and in despoiling the announcement of the Gospel of its force”
(December 8, 1982).
“Always
announce the Gospel that you live with fidelity and clarity! Your
speech must be: ‘Yes, Yes – No, No.’. Everything else comes
from the Evil One” (Mt 5:37; February
2, 1976).
Often
Our Lady gives us these messages:
“My
Heart is pained by the great danger into which your homeland is
running, because of the spread of violence and hatred, of evil and of
immorality. In the name of a false way of understanding liberty, even
the gravest moral disorders are today being permitted and justified.
Impurity is EXALTED and spread about
through the social means of communication,
and thus a veil of darkness has descended to blind the souls of many
of my children” (“To The Priests Our Lady’s Beloved Sons”;
Sao Paulo (Brazil); February 25, 1988).
I
follow God, not men. You, Don Stefano,
follow men instead of God. Even worse, one chooses from religion what
one wants for oneself and for your friends, and one puts aside the
rest of the teachings of the Church in silence. The Truth of God will
make us free (Jn 8:32)! The truth of man, of the world, that you
follow and teach, WILL NOT MAKE US FREE
NOW AND FOR ALL ETERNITY!
If
you do not want to be with the absolute Truth in paradise, it is your
choice. But to bring with you the souls entrusted to you at Magione
for all eternity, this is something more terrible than I can possibly
imagine!!! This would be the supreme betrayal for the souls entrusted
to you, as do cowards. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd
lays down his life for the sheep. He who
is a HIRELING and not a shepherd, whose
own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and
flees; and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. 13 He flees
because he is a hireling and cares nothing for the sheep” (Jn
10:11-13). Jesus told Padre Pio that he (Jesus) suffers much for the
bad priests and that he (Jesus) will
suffer until end of time!!!
The
definition of love, for a great number
of Catholics and Focolarini today, is to be together in a
celebration, but to put aside the uncomfortable Truth (Jesus
Forsaken!!!) so that everyone is happy, at their ease, to be able to
continue to live in the way of the world today and to let their
consciences slowly die, to put to silence the reproaches of their
consciences, which perhaps not yet dead. In this way, there is not
“the Truth in our midst”! “For where two or three are gathered
in my name (in the Truth!!!),
there am I in the midst of them” (Mt 18:20).
This
is false love, FALSE ECUMENISM!!!
Two
years ago you invited me to the celebration at Magione of Saint
Clement. I have already explained these things to you (in Italian:
“Una Festa Falsa Senza la Verità;
http://cibo-spir.blogspot.it/2016/11/festa-falsa.html).
You invite me to these celebrations but you never want to reply to my
questions and objections because in this very pervasive climate of
subjectivism and almost total relativism in the world and in the
Church today it is forbidden to say that we must follow the
uncomfortable Truth which is considered the lack of love toward the
people who do not want to change their lives according to the saving
Truth of Jesus!!! For me, true love
means to help people to be happy above all for all eternity according
to the criteria of God (not of the world), not just this short
life!!!
In
this climate of subjectivism and relativism today, one no longer
understands the logic of God, the point
of view of God from Divine Revelation. This is why you do not
understand this crazy priest whose name is Father Joe. This is why
you continue to taunt me and to invite me to your celebrations of
feasts without dialogue and without even the ability to understand
anymore the point of view and the divine logic of the saints of God
for all times. In subjectivism and relativism there is blindness to
understand spiritual things and the invisible things of God. In
subjectivism and relativism each person essentially becomes a god
“knowing good and evil” (Gen 3:4-5).
“Therefore God sends upon them a strong
delusion, to make them believe what is
false, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but
had pleasure in unrighteousness” (2Thess 2:11-12).
“I
heard, but I did not understand. Then I said, “O my lord, what
shall be the issue of these things?” He said, “Go your way,
Daniel, for the words are shut up and sealed until the time of the
end. Many shall purify themselves, and make themselves white, and be
refined; but the wicked shall do wickedly; and
none of the wicked shall understand; but those who are wise shall
understand.” (Dan 12:8-10).
“For
false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and
wonders, so as to lead astray, if
possible, even the elect” (Mt 24:24).
“Considering
the directives of the Council, Don Stefano (Gobbi) always had an
attitude of humble obedience, because to be faithful meant to
receive, obey. (…) This does not preclude that in the years of the
post-Council Don Stefano did not show bitterness for the
mistaken interpretation of some innovations.
(…) He was not in agreement with the free interpretation of the
liturgical acts, for which some priests felt themselves authorized to
improvise as they liked gestures and words, as if after the Second
Vatican Council one must finally make room for a new and different
Church, detached from the context of the preceding Church …”
(“Parroco di Tutto il Mondo – Biografia di Don Stefano
Gobbi”, di Mariadele Tavazzi; Edizioni San Paolo, 2015; p. 63).
Professor,
Father Ivan Pojavnik writes:
“In
the prospective of the final consummation of the centuries, Saint
John XXIII, a spiritual Father of the last Council, wanted that it
might assume the role of John the Baptist, and prepare the Church (a
by her humanity) for the coming of the Lord of glory. The Council in
fact assumed and carried out at its level this role (cf. AG 1,3),
because the coming of the Lord in glory is near (cf. GS 45,3).
Wanting to overcome the great Prophet
John XXIII, and thus leaving aside his
magisterium, a theological current fatally lost the prospective of
the “final consummation of the ages” and deviated in partial
interpretations of the Universal Vatican Council II and its
“evangelical updating” of the Church, which will culminate in the
“great day of the Lord”: after which, in the new era, as never
before will shine the “Gospel, shining sun of heavenly doctrine”
(John XXIII). Consequently this current, overturned, secularized,
earthly and underground, tore apart the Gospel of the Logos (of
Wisdom) of God incarnate with new “scientific” (rationalistic)
interpretations, spreading pernicious and grave errors (cf. 1Pt
2,1-3) and provoking in this way the great apostasy foretold by Saint
Paul (cf. 2Thess 2:3): this constitutes the first sign of the end
times (cf. 12-31-1992)” (pp. 118-119; “Don Stefano Gobbi –
Testimonianze”; a cura di P. Quiartilio Gabrielli, D. Ivan
Pojavnik, Santina Raimondo; gennaio 2017; Graphital - Parma, Italia).
“In
those confusing years after the Second Vatican Council when many
priests left the priesthood, it seemed up for grabs the doctrines and
the liturgical ceremonies of the Catholic Church. I have since
discovered how the forces of evil were
rather well
organized right after the council to interpret the documents of the
council in a false way so as to change
the true teachings of the Church in the Catholic universities and
seminaries so as to lead, in a subtle and prideful way, many
Catholics, priests and seminarians away from the true teachings of
the Church”
(http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2016/05/is-pope-catholic.html).
In
a great number of seminaries after the Second Vatican Council, they
stopped teaching “Logic” and “Metaphysics”
which help a great deal the new priests to be able to think logically
so as to be able, as Saint Thomas Aquinas taught, to distinguish
between the destructive subtleties of error and the truth. Also in a
great number of seminaries after the Second Vatican Council, they
stopped teaching Thomism as the philosophical base; they began to
offer the modern philosophers next to that of Saint Thomas as if all
were equal, and the young seminarians could choose, in the name of
liberty, what they liked without the
guidance and the wisdom of the documents of the Church
throughout the centuries. This is the same strategy of promoting the
lie that all religions are the equal which leads people to believe
that all “truths”, all opinions are equal, and that the Truth of
does not exist because they believe that God does not exist and there
is nothing after death! “Woe to those who call evil good and good
evil” (Is 5:20). I was astonished that a priest from Nigeria, who
is studying for the doctorate at Rome and who helps in the parish of
Olmo, indicated clearly that each person interprets the truth without
reference to Divine Revelation summarized in the documents of the
Church and the CCC. But notwithstanding this base of subjectivism or
relativism, he did not know what is subjectivism or relativism but
insinuated that I had the sickness which
is called “objectivism” at our
monthly meetings with the Cardinal in May 2018 at lunch time! At that
moment I had never before heard of this word “objectivism”, but
when I searched for it on the Internet I discovered that it is a new
word to criticize those who still believe that the objective Truth
exists!?! La objective Truth is God (Jn 14:6) and thus this priest
criticized me because I still believe in God!!! We have arrived even
to this point in the seminaries and in the Catholic Universities!!!
During
the International Spiritual Exercises, at Collevalenza – Sanctuary
of Merciful Love (Madre Speranza), June 22-28, 2008, Father Michael
Gaughran offered to over 200 priests and to over 10 bishops of the
movement these words in a meditation, with the title of the
meditation, “The Church, The Movement and
the current times”
(http://wordbelife.blogspot.it/2014/11/spiritual-food-1411.html):
“[IT
IS AN ATTACK ON THE TRUTH OF GOD.]
It
grew gradually. It is enough to think of a subtle change that
happened around the time of the Second Vatican Council. With the
arrival of the “experts” there developed the fashion of
theologians (Note 1), regardless of whether or not they deserved the
name; the fact that they had published a book, in general that was
enough. This continues and, with this, the center that guides the
Church in the minds of many, has shifted from where God had placed
it, in the hierarchy, the Pope and the bishops in union with him, and
became the various opinions of all sorts of writers. [The students
collected the books.] So, this has had an impact not only on the
priests, but also on seminarians in many universities. This is the
first part of the attack: the attack on the truth of God, the
foundation of the Church. (…)”
By
now you, Don Stefano, refuse to understand another fundamental point
of view, that of God expressed the
Divine Revelation, after so many years of having embraced the easier
philosophy of life: “Ignorance is Bless”, while you help all
those around you to do the same! You
have REVERSED the PRIORITY of love of God and neighbor:
"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with
all your soul, and with all your mind. This
is the great and FIRST
commandment. And a SECOND
is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself” (Mt
22:37-38)! Saint Augustine described well these two points of view
reciprocally exclusive in his famous book, “The City of God”!
“The
Antichrist will conquer many people by saying:
“You can do all that you like... it is enough to love each
other...” - Saint Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179; Doctor of the
Church)
This
fundamental contradiction in truth is worse than the Tower of Babel
(Gen 11:1-9) because at the time of the first Tower of Babel one
could at least communicate slowly with a dictionary. But without the
fundamentals of Truth from God accepted and in common among priests
and bishops of the same Catholic Church, it is impossible to arrive
at any conclusion without this common basis of divine immutable Truth
upon which to build and to go forward together. Thus more and more in
the Catholic Church, we see the words of Pope
Benedict XVI fulfilled: “Today, having a clear faith based on the
Creed of the Church is often labeled as
fundamentalism. Whereas relativism,
that is, letting oneself be "tossed here and there, carried
about by every wind of doctrine" (Eph 4:14), seems the only
attitude that can cope with modern times. WE
ARE BUILDING A DICTATORSHIP OF RELATIVISM
that does not recognize anything as definitive and whose ultimate
goal consists solely of one's own ego and desires” (“Who
Decides The Truth?”;
http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2014/06/who-decides-truth.html).
Without the base of God’s Truth, we go quickly to “Might
makes Right”, as is done in hell,
instead of “the Truth of God makes Right”!
A
few years ago I conducted a meeting with the catechists and others in
your parish. In this meeting I made reference several times to the
CCC. After the meeting, the catechists of this Parish asked me, WHAT
IS THIS BOOK, THE CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH FOR ADULTS?
When I talked about this to Father Luke D. who came from the diocese
to form the catechists in various parishes, also in your parish, he
responded: “It is not my fault, but the fault of the Pastor.” But
this means that Father Luke D never made reference to this precious
gift of the CCC for adults! At one of our monthly retreats with the
clergy of the diocese after having told this to Father Luke B., I
asked him if these priests, who form the catechists of the diocese,
represent themselves or represent the Catholic Church! Father
Luke B. did not answer me.
If
there might be an indication that you
want to go toward God with humility, to calmly dialogue in order seek
together what God wants according to the teachings of the Church of
2000 years, I’m all for it. We are all weak, I agree. But
the real problem is that THERE IS NOT THE DESIRE to follow Jesus with
the cross but to criticize a priest who
says we must live the Our Father: “THY will be done”, not “MY
will be done”. Years ago, the second question of the Catholic
Catechism for children was: “Why did God create you?” As children
we responded: “To know, to love and to serve God and to be happy
with God in heaven forever.” For a great number of Catholics and
Christians today, religion exists to serve oneself, not to “serve
God”, not to help us discover God’s holy will for each of us and
to help us live God’s holy will which is the best thing for each of
us, since God loves us. There are a great number of priests and
bishops today who are “dumb dog” regarding the difficult things
of the Gospel and of the CCC.
How
many lay people, priests and bishops are very worried about human
respect and thus do not say what their friends and followers do not
want to hear, even if it for their true eternal good? “Every one
who acknowledges me (the uncomfortable Truth) before men, the Son of
man also will acknowledge before the angels of God; but
he who denies me (the uncomfortable Truth) before men will be denied
before the angels of God” (Lk
12:8-9). God is the Truth (Jn 14:6)! The uncomfortable Truth is Jesus
crucified! False love, misguided compassion, do great harm to
souls!!!
Every
time, while speaking with you, when I make reference to some document
or article on the Internet, you
immediately criticize what I say without having every read or studied
that document!!! You have never asked me
to see a document or an article that I offer in order to explain
myself! You are not seeking the Truth
from God!!! Spoiled arrogant children act like this, those who have
rebelled against the good example and good discipline of a good
father or they have not received the good example and good discipline
of a good father. If spoiled arrogant children do not convert, their
rebellion against those who do not do as they want (eg. to
participate a their empty celebrations) and against the Truth of God
will become stronger and stronger even to eternal rebellion in hell.
“For the Lord disciplines him who he loves, and chastise every son
whom he receives” (Heb 12:6; Prov 3:12; Rev 3:19; Acts 17:11).
When
you repeated this behavior when you came to visit me a week ago, I
said to you that only God is capable of knowing these things and
criticizing things without having ever read or studied the document,
and thus I said to you: “You are God,
you are God, you are God!” And
finally you stopped criticizing what I said. As I have already
indicated in the past, I ask you not to come to visit me anymore at
Antria if you do not want to seek the Truth together with me while we
look at together the documents of the Church which can be easily
found with the Internet. If you do not come with this motive to seek
the Truth of God together, I will say to you: “Get
behind me, Satan! You are a hindrance
to me; for you are not on the side of God, but of men” (Mt 16:23).
Have I made myself clear?!?
At
the end of this period of the “great tribulation” (Mt 2421) and
the great apostasy (2Thess 2:3), the Mother of God, with the few who
have remained truly humble, will crush
the head of the ancient serpent (Gen
3:15) with all of his very numerous prideful followers (“The Woman
Clothed With The Sun In Search Of The Little Ones”;
http://spir-food.blogspot.it/2016/02/children-of-woman.html).
`Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings, You have asserted your
power against your adversaries, to silence the enemy and the rebel.'
(cf. Ps 8:3)
At
your celebrations, dinners and meetings, Jesus Christ is not invited
because one feels great pressure to not talk about how we can live
the Our Father, “THY will be done”, not “MY will be done”! At
your meetings it is OK to speak about the truth according to the
world, what people want, but not according to God revealed in Divine
Revelation, because people do not want to suffer by changing their
lives according to God. Jesus is the Truth (Jn 14:6). I will not go
to a parochial meeting if Jesus is not welcomed and honored with due
respect! For 18 years I have spent more than an hour every day before
the Most Blessed Sacrament in the tabernacle. I will not go to
meetings where the One with whom I am in love with, my Eucharistic
Lord, is not welcomed and honored with due respect!
Dear
Don Stefano, I will come to your celebrations when you will have the
courage to take the risk of dialoguing with me regarding my
objections and reservations according to the Truth well summarized in
the CCC. I will come to your celebrations when we walk together
toward the Truth which does not change and which leads us toward
Jesus and paradise, not toward the “truth” according to my head
nor according to your head or according to the world or our friends,
which would be the cult of man instead of the cult of God. In this
way there will be truly “Jesus in our midst” AND
NOT JUST EMPTY WORDS, without the
“Truth in our midst”, the Truth Who is Jesus (Jn 14:6), not the
“truth” of the world! “For where two or three are gathered in
my name (in the Truth!!!),
there am I in the midst of them” (Mt 18:20). You
say you are Catholic?!? If so let us
together look at Divine Revelation expressed in the documents of the
Church and well summarized in the Catechism of the Catholic Church
for adults (CCC, ed. 1992)!!!
Father
Joseph Dwight
