GOD’S WORD

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1)

HEROES’ WORDS

“To one who has faith, no explanation is necessary. To one without faith, no explanation is possible.” -Attributed to St. Thomas Aquinas

MEDITATION

The theological virtues are the foundation of Christian moral activity; they animate it and give it its special character. They inform and give life to all the moral virtues. They are infused by God into the souls of the faithful to make them capable of acting as his children and of meriting eternal life. They are the pledge of the presence and action of the Holy Spirit in the faculties of the human being. There are three theological virtues: faith, hope, and charity (CCC 1813). Faith is the theological virtue by which we believe in God and believe all that he has said and revealed to us, and that Holy Church proposes for our belief, because he is truth itself.

By faith “man freely commits his entire self to God.” For this reason the believer seeks to know and do God’s will. “The righteous shall live by faith.” Living faith “work[s] through charity” (CCC 1814). “Our faith must be complete. We completely submit our intellect and will to God. Our faith therefore illuminates our daily life. Our fallen race inherits from its first parents a propensity to sin, but our constant objective must be to live as Holy Mother Church teaches. We seek to live by the theological and cardinal virtues. We consciously avoid the seven capital sins. We go to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass every day if possible, or every Sunday at minimum. We go to Confession every month if possible. We do all this because we have faith that the Catholic Church has Christ’s authority to teach us how to prepare for heaven.”

Biblical reasons as why Mary is the new Eve.

By Daniel kabiriko -
*6 Biblical Reasons Mary Is the “New Eve”* Deacon Mike Chesley Listers, Mother Mary is the New Eve. Through St. Paul, Holy Scripture tells us that Christ is the New Adam, and where all died in Adam, all may be made alive in Christ. The comparison between Adam and Christ revealed a parallel in salvation history between the story of humanity’s first parents and the story of humanity’s salvation. Within this parallel, the Virgin Mary plays a role that rightfully entitles her the New Eve. An SPL Introduction: The Necessity of a New Adam & New Eve The New Adam and the New Eve are not poetic titles given to express a certain biblical view. They are necessary roles in salvation history that speak to the recreation of mankind and offering of salvation to all men. Why did the sin of the First Parents affect humanity? Many often ask why the seemingly simple sin of eating of a tree has condemned humanity to suffering in a fallen world. The truth is that humanity is one body, and Adam is the h

DEATH OF THE SINNER

By Daniel kabiriko -
– St. Alphonsus “Thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee.” LUKE xix. 43. SEEING from a distance the city of Jerusalem, in which the Jews were soon to put him to death, Jesus Christ wept over it. “Videns civitatern flevit super illam.” Our merciful Redeemer wept at the consideration of the chastisement which was soon to be inflicted on the city, and which he foretold to her inhabitants. ”Thy enemies shall cast a trench about thee. ” Unhappy city! thou shalt one day see thyself encompassed by enemies, who shall beat thee flat to the ground, and thy children in thee, and shall not leave in thee a stone upon a stone. Most beloved brethren, this unhappy city is a figure of the soul of a sinner, who, at the hour of death, shall find himself surrounded by his enemies first, by remorse of conscience; secondly, by the assaults of the devils; and thirdly, by the fears of eternal death. First Point – The sinner at death shall be tortured by remorse of conscience. 1. “Their soul shall die in a

The destruction of truth and reality.

By Daniel kabiriko -
The "philosophy" of the German Protestant Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel considers reality as having a conceptual structure, that is, that reality is subject to human ideas about it. Pure concepts, that is ideas, are not subjectively applied to sense impressions but rather things exist for actualizing their "a priori" (previously understood knowledge) concept. The concept of the concept is called the Idea by Hegel. Sound convoluted? It is. Hegel's method consisted of a triadic development in each concept and each thing. In such a way, he hoped that philosophy would not contradict his experience but that experience would provide data for philosophy, which as a rationalist Hegel thought was the ultimately true explanation. Hegel's triadic method seems to have been widely used in the development of the modernist understanding of various concepts, for instance Liberty. For Hegel, to know what Liberty is he took the example of unrestrained thought, feeling and act
