‘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 …More
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!

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.

Leo XIV’s personnel decision is a “grave sin”. Thomas Mirus, editor-in-chief of the “conservative” CatholicCulture.com, commented on X on Leo XIV’s appointment of Sister Mary Barron as President of the Pontifical Mission Societies (Missio). Both before her appointment and two weeks afterward, Sister Mary advocated for the ordination of women. She told EWTN on October 20: “Women today may hear the call to priesthood. Some of the great women saints heard that call also. So for me, it’s how do we within the Church facilitate that discernment?” Mirus commented on the interview: “I believe a grave sin is being committed by anyone who appoints or allows this woman to continue holding this position, knowing her heretical views.” He added: “This is why I said a while back that you cannot be a ‘good pope’ if you allow these things to happen, no matter how many edifying spiritual things you may say in your homilies.” #newsZwgkbxvmjq
There are three kinds of spirits: the Holy Spirit, the evil spirit, and liquid spirits. I know the Holy Spirit (Ghost) was not involved in her evil quest.
“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 …More
Jewish settlers’ attacks on Palestinians are not isolated incidents, and despite condemnations by Israeli officials, the violence continues, fueled by persistent impunity for perpetrators. The Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem issued a joint statement following the October 17 settler attack on the Christian village of Taybeh. They insist the attack was not an isolated incident, but part of a wider pattern of settler violence against Palestinian villages across the West Bank, escalating during the olive harvest. The Church leaders acknowledge that Israeli President Isaac Herzog condemned the violence and that Israeli police made arrests. However, they warn that settler attacks continue because perpetrators enjoy impunity, raising serious concerns about the effectiveness of Israeli law enforcement. Finally, they condemn a recently published religious ruling permitting Jews to take Palestinians' olives, calling it "very worrying and dangerous, and absolutely unacceptable." The …More
Saint Paul Reveals The Mystery Of Salvation St. Paul, initially a Pharisee who believed salvation was exclusive to Jews, received a revelation from God that the Gentiles were also part of the new covenant through Christ. This revelation, challenging the Jewish belief in their exclusivity, emphasized that salvation is open to all who have faith in Christ, regardless of their background. This understanding allowed St. Paul to preach the inclusivity of God’s plan and the confidence believers can have in approaching God’s throne through Christ. Fr.

Trump: "I've been the best president in the history of Israel" LauraAbolichannel +++ The ass kissing between Trump and Bibi keeps getting more and more cringe… LauraAbolichannel
Here ya go. Check out Putin with Bibi and Charles.

Of course those sitting near them kept trying to make Putin acknowledge them. And in the end he did. Totally ignoring Bibi till the end. They edited the video at the end but that's what happened. Putin trying to avoid a scene shook their hands.
Vatican Cardinal George Jacob Koovakad visited the Jain temple at the Oshwal Centre in Potters Bar, near London, on October 20. Inside the temple, a Jain pagan "priest" presented a metal tray bearing burning oil lamps in what appears to be Aarti, a devotional ritual in which light is waved before a sacred image or idol. #newsZsvfyafjwd
The Catholic situation. As we speak right now many Christians will get martyred and NO one at the Vatican will say or do anything. Several countries have embraced communism socialism, but the most important thing for the top is treating politicians who go after illegal migrants, cancel money for both DEI and climate change like if they were nazis. Christians ARE being killed and are made slaves right now, the communist party in China are establishing their communist Bishops as "catholic", but to the Vatican, ordeining new bishops within the SSPX is hell on earth. Meanwhile, judas James Martin goes all around the Catholic Church preaching to the masses that homosexuality is beautiful, 2 popes, 2 sat downs with Martin at the Vatican and while those, who are faithful, won’t get 1 minute of the pope's time. France is burning as of now due to the type dark migrant policy their leaders for years took, the same type of policy BOTH popes embraced and hailed... NEVER did Francis defended or …More

Sam shows us another Catholic Church near Moscow. I have shown pictures already of The Cathedral of the Annunciation. Now we see another Catholic Church near Moscow. Today I’m visiting a typical provincial Russian Catholic church — a small, peaceful place many people outside the country don’t even realise exists. While Russia is known for its Orthodox churches and golden domes, there are Catholic communities quietly living their everyday lives across the country, especially in provincial towns. As a foreigner, stepping into one of these churches feels both familiar and unique. The architecture, the atmosphere, the people, the traditions… they create a blend of Western and Russian influences you rarely see anywhere else. In this video, you’ll see: – What a Catholic church in provincial Russia actually looks like – The architecture, interior, and atmosphere – How Catholic communities live within a largely Orthodox country – The differences and similarities to Western churches – A quiet …More
