If you are not at the Feast, then you aren't following the teaching of the apostles.. They went out from us, but they were not really of our number; if they had been, they would have remained with us. Their desertion shows that none of them was of our number. Pax et Bonum

If this is so, where is the community that has stood through all of that? Where is the stone that has become a mountain and filled the whole world? Where is the mustard seed that has become the greatest of trees? Where is the city set on a hill that cannot be hid? Pax et Bonum

Hello Christophany, Context, context, context... Jesus is talking there about His coming at the end of the age in Glory to judge the world.. He is warning of imposters who will claim (or who others will claim) are Him.. I noticed you didnt answer my question, so I will repeat it: Pax et Bonum

Then please identify the 2000 year old community that fulfills Christ's promise.. If Rome is your stumbling block, then come to the Feast with Alexandria, come with Constantinople.. But Come! Pax et Bonum

Would you believe me if I said yes? For 2000 years our brothers and sisters have proclaimed and believed Jesus truly present in the Eucharist.. From the beginning also have been those who refuse to accept it.. Here's Ignatius of Antioch: They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer...

The Church has Spirit-less leadership? Is Christ then a false prophet? And so I say to you, you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it. Pax et Bonum

Recognizing that God works all things for the good of those that love Him, certainly makes it easier to bear (unjust?) suffering for the sake of others imo.. Pax et Bonum

Hi Christophany, His entire person is present, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age. Pax et Bonum

very well, I and 2000 years of my brethren stand for the Truth that Jesus is truly, manifestly present in the Eucharist. But if you will not accept their testimony, what good then is mine? Pax et Bonum

Ah, well that is easier to answer.. Love God! Love one another! Yep, it's all there.. :D Pax et Bonum

Hello robert, I dont think insufficient is the word I would use. Scripture is certainly sufficient to call one to the Truth, but being intimately united with the Truth is something so much more.. You search the scriptures, because you think you have eternal life through them; even they...

2. And do not pray as the hypocrites, but as the Lord commanded in his Gospel, pray thus: "Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, as in Heaven so also upon earth; give us today our daily bread, and forgive us our debt as we forgive our debtors...

And you are the arbiter of Truth? Does the Truth change? If we disagree, who adjudicates? Pax et Bonum

Hey amigo, Perhaps, but many who unknowingly follow such but trust in Jesus ,probably are.. Funny how the enemy, in trying to divide the Church, has mostly just made sure Jesus' name is known everywhere.. If that can be acconplished despite our hard hearts and proud pronouncements, how...

Hi Victory, This came to mind after reading your post: For whenever anyone bears the pain of unjust suffering because of consciousness of God, that is a grace. But what credit is there if you are patient when beaten for doing wrong? But if you are patient when you suffer for doing what is...

Hello amigo, Indeed that may be so. But Jesus knows our hearts. HE will judge justly and mercifully. HE knows those who in their hearts and actions choose Life and those who do not. Do not be too quick to write off your brethren 'for we have the mind of Christ' Pax et Bonum

Hello amigo, I dont think they knew at that time. After He started healing and casting out demons, they knew for sure.. But at the beginning? Pax et Bonum

Hi stunned, While Jesus knew who the tempter was, I'm not sure the tempter was convinced Jesus was the one.. Could any ordinary man refuse such temptation? Not but by the power of the Holy Spirit! Pax et Bonum

Amen!

Hello amigo, The love of Christ is fully expressed in the Banquet He sets for us. "For this reason a man shall leave (his) father and (his) mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh." This is a great mystery, but I speak in reference to Christ and the church. All...
