    Praying the Rosary

    Do you imagine that God is displeased by the devout praying of the Rosary? Could words so full of holy love be so offensive to God Who is love? No, the Rosary is a wonderful way to honor Jesus and Mary. And as Mother Mary declared by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, "All generations shall call...

    The Madonna's Lullaby Mary sings, the ravished heavens Hush the music of their spheres; Soft her voice, her beauty fairer Than the glancing stars appears; While to Jesus, slumbering nigh, Thus she sings her lullaby: "Sleep, my Babe, my God, my Treasure, Gently sleep; but ah! the sight With...

    The Quality of Faith Is Not Strained!

    St. Paul feared lest he should fall into mortal sin and lose his salvation 1 Corthinthians 9:27. There are many who have been baptized i.e. received santifying grace who later fell into mortal sins and lost their salvation. Yes it's true, Christians are very capable of committing the mortal sins...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    Yes, that's one example of a mortal sin. The Scriptures are full of examples of mortal sins. There are other mortal sins i.e. "sins unto death" found in 1 Corthinthians 6:9-11. What kind of death? It is always the death of the soul because mortal sin deprives it of sanctifying grace. While it's...

    Praying the Rosary

    While the Our Father and Hail Mary are both taken from Scripture, it wouldn't be right to describe praying the Rosary as just repeating the written Word of God. The Rosary is the most beautiful blend of vocal and mental prayer which pleases God and brings many graces to the one who prays it...

    The Quality of Faith Is Not Strained!

    The sins mentioned in 1 Corinthians above are, to use St. John's words, "sins unto death" i.e. mortal sins. Anyone who continues to sin mortally will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Mortal sins are 100% avoidable and must be avoided for salvation. But St. John also mentions "sins not unto...

    The kingdom of heaven where is it and how do you get there

    Jesus was repsonding to the question about when the kingdom of God will come. The Jews were expecting an earthly kingdom that would physically subject all nations to the Jews. Jesus, refuting this idea, pointed out that the Kingdom of God is a spiritual, having to do with the soul, and is thus...

    I believe one who deliberately sins in not a Christian.

    St. John talks about "sins unto death" and "sins not unto death." The "sin unto death" in 1 John 5:16 referrs to mortal sins which kill the soul. Mortal sins separate us from God even in this life. Mortal sins can and must be avoided, with the help of God's grace. We can avoid mortal sins by...

    exorcism

    If you cease all mortal sins and change your life by accepting the fullness of the faith i.e. the Catholic faith without compromise; if you make a sincere sacramental confession of all past mortal sins to a validly ordained priest; if you pray the daily Rosary and have devotion to the Mother of...

    A real Christian ?

    No. A true Christian is one who accepts all that Christ taught. Jesus Christ made this very clear when He said, "If thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments" (Mt. 19:17). We know that He was referring to the Ten Commandments because He went on to list some of them.

    Angels Behold the Face of My Father

    The OP is mistaken. That verse is talking about Guardian Angels. We are not angels. The existence of Guardian Angels is a dogma of the Christian faith. Here's another verse: "There shall no evil come to thee: not shall the scourge come near thy dwelling. For He hath given His Angels charge over...

    Not Allowing Kids to Get Gifts at Christmas - - It's Wrong

    Christmas is the day we celebrate the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ. Giving gifts or not giving gifts makes no difference when it comes to the meaning of Christmas. If our thoughts and affections are not with Jesus Christ on that day then we have robbed ourselves of Christmas.

    The Angels anounced peace on earth good will torward man --christmas

    The Angel said, "Glory to God in the highest: and on earth peace to men of good will." (Luke 2:14) Only those who are of good will (those who love God and obey Him) are given the gift of peace. Indeed, "There is no peace to the wicked, saith the Lord."
