With the way things are going, it might be a good time to talk to them about the catacombs and how we might need to "hide" from those who want to annihilate all Christians. I was just reading about Nicholas Owen and his brilliant architectural skills in making hiding places for the priests during Elizabeth's draconian persecution.

There isn't anything here that denies scripture or our Catholicity, on the contrary. It is a sermon that takes you on a deeper dive into divine matters than we are accustomed to, sadly. For a moment, the heights and truths are accessible as we read these inspiring words.<br />One has to note, on a human level, how much more intelligent the people of the day were, how much more they could take in, and how more peaceful their world was, to be able to sit and take in such a wonderful sermon. <br />Evangelinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-70707327946735359452020-03-29T07:38:02.328-04:002020-03-29T07:38:02.328-04:00Our parish, Immaculate Conception, Cleveland, Ohio...Our parish, Immaculate Conception, Cleveland, Ohio is live-streaming the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass every evening at 6:30 p.m., Saturdays at 9 a.m., and Sundays at noon.

Today I went to a Mass at another church because it was later. Was I ever sorry. So much noise you could hardly pray before Mass, the music was ridiculous and too loud and the people "prayed" so fast I couldn't keep up. And then the priest. I have never heard anyone zip through a Mass like this one. It was as if he was racing someone for a prize. I was so depressed by the time it was over. <br />I'll be very glad to get back to my regular church. And I'll keep praying for the Mass of all ages to return to my area.

The intention to do what the Catholic Church intends is lacking. Ergo, their "sacrament" is invalid.<br />They deny transubstantiation and regard the "supper of the Lord", not as the Blessed Sacrament, but as a simple commemoration of the occasion of the Last Supper - just as Remembrance Day commemorates the end of World War I. Once again, a mere outward mimicry of a Catholic Sacrament. They deny the words of Our Lord - "This is My Body ..."; they reject the Catholic Faith. They mock Our Lord by their ghastly parody of His Blessed Sacraments; metaphorically they denigrate and stone Our Lord in their unbelief. Their machinations are devoid of both Our Lord and Sacramental Grace.<br /><br />Peter Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17952041193215971470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-61020032821268640052016-03-13T20:12:02.813-04:002016-03-13T20:12:02.813-04:00The liturgy was certainly more realistic, pre V-2....The liturgy was certainly more realistic, pre V-2.orate fratmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04618744702928236293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20981956.post-44550609619223785972016-03-13T19:59:50.525-04:002016-03-13T19:59:50.525-04:00Thank you for the post. However, I'm having ...Thank you for the post. However, I'm having a hard time understanding a few things in these excerpts: <br /><br />Again, the Sacraments are the Presence of Christ. In the Sacrament of Holy Baptism, He is present by His Spirit, Who, in answer to the prayers of the congregation, is given by our Heavenly Father to infants, when baptized, that they may be born again and be made heirs of everlasting salvation. In the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, He is really and spiritually present, being taken and received by the faithful as their heavenly food and divine life. <br /><br />Comment: The Sacraments "work" ex opere operato. Yes, the congregation joins in prayer, but the person is baptized provided there is proper matter, form and intention,like when a Catholic layman baptizes in case of danger of death and there is no priest (or congregation) present. Cf. comment on paragraph 3 below. <br /><br />Whoever, therefore, despises the Sacraments, despises Christ. Whoever denies their saving power, denies the Presence of the Saviour in them. Whoever in effect casts stones at these, as by cavils or contumely or neglect, does in reality thus cast stones at Christ. And then does the Son of God hide Himself from them in the majesty of displeasure; and Sacraments become to these persons what, in their rationalistic unbelief, they would have them be. <br />Comment: Understood. <br /><br /><br />Baptism, when administered by schismatics and pretenders to Holy Orders, fails to regenerate; and their own theory, that Baptism admits only to an outward union with a nominal church, is, in their own case, verified. The Communion is reduced to a formal commemoration of an absent Saviour. In both cases, as regards their own mere outward show of Sacraments, they are right. They have taken up stones to cast at the spiritually-present Jesus; and He has hidden Himself, going through the midst of them, and so passing by.<br /><br />Comment: Our Lord is really, truly and substantially present in the Most Holy Eucharist - Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. Please explain the last sentence. My poor pea brain can't comprehend it. <br /><br /><br />Please forgive the length of this post. I'm just trying to understand what the author is saying.<br /><br />Finally, I clicked on the link and didn't find an imprimatur. That concerns me.<br /><br /><br /> <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Guesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14389930802662995142noreply@blogger.com
