Catholic priest says many are called to the Catholic Faith but few are chosen for Heaven
https://www.inthissignyoushallconquer.com/
Would Cardinals Cupisch and Malley give the Eucharist to supporters of the sexual abuse of minors ?
Cardinal Blaise Cupich at the ongoing summit was asked a question by Delia Galagher of CNN.He said that he takes seriously his call to live the Gospel as a baptised person.He lives his life authentically before the people of God.
Cardinal Cupich is a Consultant on the U.S Bishops Bishops Committee on Ecumenical and Interreligious Affairs(USCCB) 1
To be politically correct with the influential Left, he interprets magisterial documents as a rupture with the dogma outside the Church there is no salvation, as it was interpreted by popes and saints over the centuries.He does this by using a false premise. So he contradicts the teachings of Jesus on salvation, as it was interpreted over the centuries in the Catholic Church.This is approved by the Jewish Left.He has changed the teachings of the Catholic Church on faith and salvation.There is no authenticity here.
He also supports the Eucharist being given to the divorced and re-married and to practising homosexuals.So he has changed the Church's teachings on mortal sin and the Eucharist.
This is a major change in the Church teachings on both, faith( salvation) and morals.They consider this being an authentic Catholic.
Vatican Council II does not contradict the strict interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS), the past exclusive ecclesiology and an ecumenism of return when interpreted rationally. But as a Consultant to the USCCB he has to say that it does.The USCCB follows the people in power in this case, and not Jesus.
The hypothetical passages in Nostra Aetate cannot contradict the dogma EENS nor the orthodox passages in Vatican Council II which support EENS.Yet he will not admit this.
Similarly the theoretical and speculative passages in Unitatis Redintigratio 3 do not contradict the orthodox passages in Unitatis Redintigratio , which support an ecumenism of return. He will not affirm this and so changes the Gospel.
This is accountability to whom- Jesus or the world ?
After rejecting the Church's traditional teachings on faith and morals , like the rest of the USCCB, and then wrongly interpreting Vatican Council II as a rupture with EENS and an ecumenism of return, is he against the sexual abuse of minors since it is politically correct in the present times ?
If they permitted it would he approve of it as he approves of the Eucharist being given to practising homosexuals and pro abortion politicians ? He would also give the Eucharist to those who support the sexual abuse of minors ?
Cardinal Malley who assisted Cupich as the Press Conference at the Summit on the Sexual Abuse of Minors, for years pleased the Jewish ADL and denied the Gospel. On the Archdiocese of Boston website he states that Jews do not need to convert in the present times. This contradicts Jesus in the Gospel of John. Jesus told the Jews that they need to convert. They need to believe in Him and that God the Father sent Him.
This is Cardinal Malley's concept of collegiality and obligation to each other.

Cardinals Walter Brandmuller and Raymond Leo Burke could help the Catholic Church to come back to the truth of the Gospel. They can confirm that in magisterial texts the red passages do not contradict the blue passages

No cardinal or bishop supports the St. Benedict Center. No one is saying that unknown cases of invincible ignorance cannot be objective exceptions to the strict interpretation of the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS)

Trump yanks 60 million dollars from Planned Parenthood
eNew rule restricting Title X funding major blow to abortion giant
By Barbara Toth
WASHINGTON (ChurchMilitant.com) - Planned Parenthood stands to lose around $60 million in federal funding under a new rule issued by the Trump administration.
On Friday, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published a rule that restricts federal funding to organizations that provide abortion referrals. This means organizations can no longer take federal funds if their counseling includes any information on where or how to get an abortion — encompassing practically every Planned Parenthood clinic in the nation, including those that do not perform abortions.

The Catholic Church does say today that a person is in Hell and that there are many people there. Most people go to Hell and we can name them specifically.
The Catholic Church does say today that a person is in Hell and that there are many people there. Most people go to Hell and we can name them specifically.
This flies in the face of the Masonic propaganda which says that the Church does not say that there is any particular person is in Hell and that a person could repent at the last moment and be saved.
In Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church we are informed that all need faith and baptism for salvation. This is also the teaching of the Catechism of Pope Pius X and the Council of Florence 1441.This Council was
one of the three Church Councils which defined the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus.
Most people die outside the Catholic Church. They die without faith and baptism.They are in Hell today.
So when we meet non Catholics we specifically know that they are oriented to Hell.They do have the baptism of water or Catholic Faith.They live without the Sacraments and the Church's teachings on faith and morals.They live and die with mortal sin which covers their soul.
I was telling a Franciscan the other day, that the Redemptorist priest who said that we cannot judge since at the last moment a person can be saved was officially checked by Pope John Paul II.
In the Bible Jesus tells us that adulterers are oriented to Hell. In general they are going to Hell unless they seek forgiveness with penance and absolution in the Sacrament of Confession and change their lifestyle. This is the norm. If some one in manifest mortal sin, unknown to us repents and is forgiven, this would only be known to God. We cannot know any such case and also this is not the norm.
So we know that a young couple living in concubinage would go to Hell if they died immediately.Since adultery is the norm for going to Hell and not repentance at the last moment before death.
The Franciscan was taught that the Church does not even say that Judas is in Hell. This is false since the Bible tells us Judas is in Hell.
When Cardinal Vince Nicols sometime back said that the Church today does not say that any one is in Hell he was telling the leftists and Masons what they wanted to know. They would get upset if the cardinal said that most people are oriented to Hell, according to Vatican Council II and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. He could also name the non Catholics in the present times who are oriented to Hell and those celebrities and influential people in Britain who are living in mortal sin and have Hell-fire as their goal.
Similarly Cardinal Vince Nicols, would please the the Lodges in England, and grant a funeral to a suicide-case and a politican who supports homosexuuality and abortion.He would know that Jesus and the Catholic Church over the centuries condemned sin since it takes a person to the fires for all eternity.-Lionel Andrades
Catholics who die as martyrs for the Faith go straight to Heaven says Franciscan priest
Those Catholics who die as martyrs for the Faith go straight to Heaven said a Franciscan priest yesterday in his homily at Holy Mass on the feast of St.Polycarp.
St.Polycarp was a disciple of the Apostle St.John and was born circa 69.he was a Greek bishop from Smyrna and an important 2nd century figure in Catholic and Christian theology. His Letter to the Philippians was a significant foundation of early Christian (Catholic) literature, establishing the role of Apostle Paul and referencing the existence of other texts of the Bible's New Testament.he was stabbed to death for his Faith on February 23, 155 AD. According to the Martyrdom of Polycarp he died a martyr, bound and burned at the stake, then stabbed when the fire failed to touch him.1
His name 'Polycarp' means 'much fruit' in Greek. It is recorded by Irenaeus, who heard him speak in his youth, and by Tertullian, that he had been a disciple of John the Apostle. Saint Jerome wrote that Polycarp was a disciple of John and that John had ordained him bishop of Smyrna.
With Clement of Rome and Ignatius of Antioch, Polycarp is regarded as one of three chief Apostolic Fathers
The Apostolic Fathers were Catholic theologians who lived in the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, who are believed to have personally known some of the Twelve Apostles, or to have been significantly influenced by them.

Those who die as matyrs for the Catholic Faith, originally called the Christian Faith or Christianity, before the schisms, go directly to Heaven. It is believed that they do not have to expiate their sins in Purgatory.
Those who proclaim the Catholic Faith and are killed for it are martyrs.2
St. Stephen,stoned in 36 AD in Jerusalem, was the first to suffer martyrdon. He was one of the first seven deacons chosen by the early Christian community and became an evangelist.-Lionel Andrades

John the Baptizer refused to compromise with evil and never ceased professing the law of God; in the end he “gave his life in witness to truth and justice” (Opening Prayer for the Feast of the Beheading of St. John). St. Stephen, one of the first deacons of the Church, was also the first martyr (Act 6:8ff), followed by the Apostle St. James the Greater (Acts 12:2).
The witness of these martyrs coalesces in the apocalyptic vision of the Book of Revelation. Here, St. John saw the angels and saints from every nation and race, people and tongue, standing before the throne and the Lamb. They cried out, “Salvation is from our God, who is seated on the throne, and from the Lamb!” When asked who they were, the answer came, “These are the ones who have survived the great period of trial; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.” (Confer Revelation 7:9-17.)
The spiritual rationale which undergirds the act of martyrdom is one that each Christian must accept. In teaching the conditions for true discipleship, our Lord asserted, “If a man wishes to come after me, he must deny his very self, take up his cross, and begin to follow in my footsteps. Whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. What profit would a man show if he were to gain the whole world and destroy himself in the process?” (Matthew 16:24-26). Yes, the Christian must be prepared to bear the cross of our Lord, even if it means forsaking life in this world.
In doing so, however, such a Christian will be blessed in the eyes of God. In the Beatitudes, those right attitudes of living that bring blessed union with God, the eighth beatitude is repeated, “Blest are those persecuted for holiness’ sake; the reign of God is theirs.” Moreover, Jesus personalized this beatitude: “Blest are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of slander against youbecause of me.” Nevertheless, the point is not just the suffering here and now for the faith, but the courageous perseverance which gives way to everlasting life: “Be glad and rejoice, for your reward is great in Heaven.” (Confer Matthew 5:10-12.)
This spiritual rationale is reflected beautifully in the testimony of the martyrs of our early Church during the time of Roman persecution. For example, St. Ignatius of Antioch (d. 110), who was the third bishop of Antioch following St. Evodius (who had succeeded St. Peter the Apostle), and who had been a student of St. John the Apostle, was condemned by the Emperor Trajan and sentenced to being devoured by beasts in the arena. On the way to Rome where he would die, he wrote seven letters, including one to the Romans, in which he reflected on his pending death: “Allow me to be eaten by the beasts, which are my way of reaching God. I am God’s wheat, and I am to be ground by the teeth of wild beasts, so that I may become the pure bread of Christ,” and later “Neither the pleasures of the world nor the kingdoms of this age will be of any use to me. It is better for me to die in order to unite myself to Christ Jesus than to reign over the ends of the earth. I seek Him who died for us; I desire Him who rose for us. My birth is approaching…” (Letter to the Romans).
Another great witness to the faith during this time was St. Polycarp, the Bishop of Smyrna, who was a friend of St. Ignatius and who had also been a student of St. John the Apostle and had been consecrated a bishop by him. For refusing to offer sacrifice to the Roman gods and to acknowledge the divinity of the Emperor, St. Polycarp was condemned to death by burning at the stake at the age of eighty-six during the reign of Emperor Marcus Aurelius. As the pyre was about to be lit, St. Polycarp prayed, “I bless you for having judged me worthy from this day and this hour to be counted among your martyrs…. You have kept your promise, God of faithfulness and truth. For this reason and for everything, I praise you, I bless you, I glorify you, through the eternal and heavenly High Priest, Jesus Christ, your beloved Son. Through Him, who is with you and the Holy Spirit, may glory be given to you, now and in the ages to come. Amen.” (The Martyrdom of St. Polycarp).
In defense of the martyrs, Tertullian (d. 250) later wrote in his Apology, “Crucify us, torture us, condemn us, destroy us! Your wickedness is the proof of our innocence, for which reason does God suffer us to suffer this. When recently you condemned a Christian maiden to a panderer rather than to a panther, you realized and confessed openly that with us a stain on our purity is regarded as more dreadful than any punishment and worse than death. Nor does your cruelty, however exquisite, accomplish anything: rather, it is an enticement to our religion. The more we are hewn down by you, the more numerous do we become. The blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians!” Without question, despite the worst persecutions, the Church has continued to survive and to grow, due greatly to the courageous witness and prayers of the holy martyrs. In his recent apostolic exhortation Ecclesia to the Churches in Asia, Pope John Paul II noted the persecution of the Church, and echoing Tertullian, proclaimed: “May they stand as indomitable witnesses to the truth that Christians are called always and everywhere to proclaim nothing other than the power of the Lord’s cross! And may the blood of Asia’s martyrs be now as always the seed of new life for the Church in every corner of the continent!” (#49).
Pope John Paul II has been very mindful of the witness of the martyrs in our Church, with a special emphasis on those that have died during this century, especially during the persecutions waged by the Nazis and Communists. Every continent has been touched by the blood of martyrs. He has described martyrdom as “the most eloquent proof of the truth of the faith, for faith can give a human face even to the most violent of deaths and show its beauty even in the midst of the most atrocious persecution” (Incarnationis Mysterium, #13). According tho the Holy Father, this “proof of faith” is evidenced in three ways: First, martyrdom affirms the inviolability of the moral order– both the truth and holiness of God’s law and the dignity of the human person. Second, martyrdom attests to the perfect humanity and true life of the human person: Here the Holy Father quoted St. Ignatius of Antioch: “Have mercy on me, brethren: do not hold me back from living; do not wish that I die…. Let me arrive at the pure light; once there I will be truly a man. Let me imitate the passion of my God.” (Romans). Finally, martyrdom attests to the holiness of the Church, presenting witnesses committed to the truth. In sum, “by their eloquent and attractive example of a life completely transfigured by the splendor of moral truth, the martyrs and, in general, all the Church’s saints, light up every period of history by reawakening its moral sense” (Splendor of Truth, #93).
Therefore, we must be mindful of the martyrs of our Church, for their witness encourages us and gives us great hope. By the grace of God, may we be as committed to our Lord, His Church, and the faith as they were. Let us take to heart the words of St. Paul, “Since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every encumbrance of sin which clings to us and persevere in running the race which lies ahead; let us keep our eyes fixed on Jesus, who inspires and perfects our faith” (Hebrews 12:1-2)
