Blessing of The Throats

Today at the 8:00 AM Mass at our parish, Our Lady of Sorrows, I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and intentions. Prior to receiving Holy Communion, I made an Act of Contrition

After receiving the Most Sacred Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, I knelt in silent commune with Him. First and always, giving thanks for His many blessings and graces and then professing my love for Him.

After calling to Jesus in prayer with these words,"speak Lord if it be Your will, Your servant listens." Jesus responded with the following words:

* "It has been said and My people know it is right to fear the Lord, for retribution is Mine."

Jesus continued on saying: "I want all my children to come to Me out of love and not fear for then I will extend to them My great peace and serenity! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord, continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen." *



Note: In my heart and through the church's teaching we have learned that even an imperfect Act of Contrition during the sacrament of Penance is acceptable to God. However Jesus' love for us is so great that is deepest desire is that we do what is right because of our great love for Him.

Catechism of the Catholic Church

1492 Repentance (also called contrition) must be inspired by motives that arise from faith. If repentance arises from love of charity for God, it is called "perfect" contrition; if it is founded on other motives, it is called "imperfect."

Hi, rose to help you and for the time ahead. The Son of God established 7 Sacraments, a means to impart His needed
grace to humanity.

The Sacrament of Repentance (Confession) is one of them.

That's why you gotta say "yes" to becoming Catholic, maybe
not now but certainly soon, when God shows you, then asks
you Himself during the Great Warning.

The Roman Catholic church is evil. Jesus said their fruits you will know them. If you look at the Catholic churches fruit you will see war, torture, theft, pedophilia, etc. How much more obvious does it have to be before people turn away from this monstrous religion?

Re: from Our Lord, one reason to become Roman Catholic now...before the Great Warning
As one who was raised, educated through university, and adamant of catholic truth until giving my life unreservedly Unto The Father; my witness (what I have Seen and Know) is that roman catholicism is a fraud and deceit enacted by its hierarchy for the purpose of obfuscating The Gospel and denying its parishoners from coming into God's Accord as Brought and Enabled by Christ Jesus.


Martin Luther, a German rc priest, nailed his 95 Theses to the church door at Wittenberg. These were his 95 objections to the rc church's practices and instituteions which were at variance with The Bible and early Christian Tradition.

Luther stated he would have re-unioned with rome (the rcc) had they only agreed that the purpose of Christ and The Gospels was to Enable all men to have a Direct and Personal Relationship With God The Father.... Of course, the rcc would not relent. Rather like Mozart's Don Giovanni.


Catholicism was perverted in 300AD when mary-worship was introduced to placate newly conquered heathen races who had tradition of goddess worship.

Jesus did not Come to found a church. The Rock he found within Peter was Knowledge of WHO HE Was which HE Witnesses was Given To Peter By The Father. It is this KNOWLEDGE, Knowing WHO Jesus IS, that determines if God has Called your heart.

the rcc lies routinely and diverts mankind away from Relationship With God.

whom do you think they serve?
Certainly not The Father, so that only leaves HIS enemy. Of course, the rcc denies satan and that evil actually exists too. Friend of mine who was a novitiate for the priesthood told me "there is no such thing as evil, only the absence of good".


If you Truly Love God, catholicism is a cult that keeps you from serving HIM, Knowing HIM, and living In HIS Accord.


If that sounds correct to you, and if you want to defend your "church", realize that God Cannot lie and will not mislead you. Seek HIM on your own and ask HIM for understanding. If you Love HIM enough to Trust HIM Fully with your life, Tell HIM So and then come back here and give us your witness. Until you do Trust HIM Fully, your life will be lived in alienation from HIM, no matter what your priest, bishop, or pope tells you.

If you have Relationship With God, Scripture Witnesses, you "have an Anointing From The Holy One and Know all things."
1st John 2:20

St. Paul Witnesses the same in 2nd Timothy 2:7

Jesus Witnesses in John ch 17 that God Gave HIS People Unto HIM in trust, and that we who are HIS Abide In and With The Father as HE Does.

None of these Biblical Truths are found or admitted by the rcc.


If you choose to trust catholicism rather than God; you have made your decision. Mind control and cultism are hard conditionings to break free of, but God Gave us Jesus and Jesus Witnessed HE IS The Way and The Truth, that No Man Cometh Unto The Father But BY ME. John 14:6


catholic or Christian?
In my almost 28yrs as a Born-Again Christian, never led to return to the rcc OR formally join a congregation; I can tell you with all my heart that Knowing God and Relying Upon HIM is all you will need or desire, IF you can Trust HIM enough to surrender control of your life Unto HIM.


Maranatha!!!

To the contrary, the Bible says to COME OUT OF HER MY PEOPLE!!!

Revelation 18:
1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

Re: from Our Lord, one reason to become Roman Catholic now...before the Great Warning
More fake Messages apparently from Jesus this time, maybe his Mum is busy?!?

Do we really believe that Jesus would Have anything to do with The Catholic System, it has the Darkest History of any Institution on The Planet and fulfills every criterion for: The Whore of Babylon, Little Horn, Antichrist, Beast power:

who thought to change Gods Times and Laws

wears Purple and Scarlet

Made itself Drunk on The Blood of Christ Saints and Martyrs

Has a Visible mouth which speaks Great Blasphemy towards God

Plucked up 3 Kingdoms by its Roots:
(Those Kingdoms were the: Herali, Vandalls & Ostagoths)

The Beast Is Identifiable by its Number 666
Dux Cleri, Ludovicus, Italika Ekklesia, Lateinos, Romiith, Vicarius Filii Dei: All these papal words add up to 666!

So do many more!, there are Too many co-incidences with The number 666 and The Roman System.

The Roman Numerology Priest's use to carry the 666 Tablet with them everywhere in the Ancient world: 666 was the number given to The Sun, The Sun Symbolism is quite apparent in the Roman Catholic System today, especially since they gave God's Holy Sabbath to the day of The Sun.

So what I'm saying is they still worship the 666 God of Sun symbolism, as the Idols all have Sun disks behind them, They have Solar wheels in almost every Catholic Church & The Eucharist itself is Shaped like The Sun because it is Sun worship, That was kept up to the present day from Pagan times.

The Pope Also wears The Hat of God's Sworn enemy The Dagon-ites, The people who were Samson's Enemy's: wore Those Fish Hat's on Their Heads.

"For by God's Grace are ye saved through Faith: and not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:" Ephesians 2:8

Is there One Faith in Jesus that keeps God's Holy Ten Commandments as The Bible Teaches: His Pure Bride.

Because The Catholic System is Not Pure Nor has it even been, It has Rivers of Blood washed over Her pagan hands.

Look at the Popes do they Condemn Pagan religions?
Or do they totally endorse them?

Look again: The Pope's are well Known for Mingling with other Religious Leaders(how many do they convert again? Oh that's Right NONE)
and then they Kiss Their Talmud;s and Quaran's which have the Most horrible things to say about Jesus in Them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would Rather have my lips cut off: then kiss those filthy Satanic Doctrines: that attempt to make a Mockery of Jesus.

There's Nothing Holy about Any pope, The only Holy One is God, These Pomp-amiss Maxi-mas have been around since Simon Magus: when he Impersonated Jesus at Rome He is The Simon Peter: Buried in The Vatican: a Man witch who mingled All The Occult/Pagan doctrines He could find, under the pretend Guise of Christianity.

See, the message is good :)
did jesus ever state that you have to be part of a certain religion?

All the different religions seems to preach both love and fear, worship God out of love, but have fear that if you do not worship you will go to hell.

Maybe if you worship out of love, because you just "feel" faithfull and feel its right, the name of the religion doesn't matter that much afterall?

Dude, you simply don't get it, do you? As long as the Catholic Church continues to have practices and doctrine that flies directly in the face of the Scriptures, then it is not, cannot be (now or ever),the Christian religious movement started by Jesus Christ, Himself. For ANY religious cult/group to presume pre-eminence over the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ by telling people that they MUST accept false traditions & teachings on an equal basis to the sacrifice of the Lord's death and resurrection as the means to receive salvation is heresy. Jesus said exactly what was required in the Holy Scriptures----accept Jesus as Lord and savior!!!! That is all; and if He didn't know..nobody knows. I have looked at this issue, studied it at length as a favor to my mis- guided sister who became a catholic and used to keep trying to convert me. The more I researched, the more I learned and the more I learned the better I knew that she and you sir are unfortunately misguided in your beliefs. I'm still working to educate my sister on her mistake and pray I will succeed before being called home, because I, sir AM SAVED---NOW and forever; I don't don't have to work on achieving it. I ACCEPTED IT! For you I can only pray that you will listen to and read/study something besides what the Catholic church tells you will explain all of "our" objections and in the process allow your eyes to be truly opened to the love of God. (I had no idea the catholic church went to the trouble of printing up whole books of instruction on how to try to counter "our" arguments against false catholic doctrine.....one for each argument as I recall). Take my rebuke for what it is and if you are as intellectually honest as you seem to want everyone to believe, do some honest fact finding and revisit your position with an honest critical analysis; just use documentation other than what the Catholic Church provides and above all else if it does not square with the Holy Bible, then it is wrong and false. God has told me in ways that only He can, using His Word, The Scriptures, that I am correct in this. I have nothing else to say on the matter, because this isn't a debate, nor even question & answer. You stated, I commented and corrected..that's it!

A remnant is a small piece of something, a tiny fraction of a much larger Piece.

Your Church isn't a Remnant........... its The Other One.

The one who commits great Blasphemy before God

The One who thought to change God's Times and Laws

The One Drunk on The Blood of Christ's Saints and Martyrs

The one who plucked up 3 Kingdoms: Because They were Sabbath Keepers:Herali/Vandalls/Ostagoths

It also attacked The Ethiopians for the same reason but some of them managed to escape.

The one who had a Deadly wound, that was Healed exactly to the date the Bible stated it would.

The One so easily Identifiable by The Colors: Purple and Scarlet

The one so easily Identifiable by the number 666
(The worship of The sun, is the 666 God of Ancient Rome)

I hear Catholics say over and over that the Antichrist will abolish The Eucharist, But the Bible Teaches that the Antichrist/Beast will set up a System of Buying/Selling Laws, Which it calls The Mark of the Beast.

Now it is More then Interesting to Note That a Religious/Spiritual figurehead: like The Pope would Announce That the world Needs a Central World Bank?

Does it really Need a Central world Bank?!? or does it Need To acknowledged The Holy Creator God of Heaven.

Because The Pope has No Problem whatsoever with Evolution, nor any Other Religions: Hes quite chummy with Most of Them.

Yet Not enough to Convert them to Christ(who is the Gate to Heaven), in fact He blesses them and receives their Pagan occult blessing in return.

Maybe he Doesn't care if they meet Jesus or not?

He is even known to Kiss Their Talmuds and Quarans which have The Most horrible things to say about Christ in them.

So how is He even a Christian?, He allows anything, Now if He really is The Representative of Christ on Earth? as His followers claim him to be Why doesn't He strongly rebuke False Religions?, instead of Just dropping Hints that other Protestant Christians are in the Wrong, Christ quoted The Holy Scriptures and rebuked Sin in all its forms.
The Papacy Not so Much
The Pope's are neither Fathers nor Holy, The most Unholy Queen could be more appropriate.

After receiving the Most Sacred Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, I knelt in silent commune with Him. First and always, giving thanks for His many blessings and graces and then professing my love for Him.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 9904258


A help with questions and answers regarding Confession.
Notice perfect sorrow and imperfect sorrow are defined.

The Sacrament of Penance (Confession)

"Now when it was late that same day, the first of the week, and the doors were shut, where the disciples were gathered together, for fear of the jewish people, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them: 'Peace be to you.' And when He had said this, he shewed them His hands and His side. The disciples therefore were glad, when they saw the Lord. He said therefore to them again: 'Peace be to you. As the Father hath sent Me, I also send you.' When He had said this, He breathed on them; and He said to them: 'Receive ye the Holy Ghost. Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.'" (John 20:19-23)

Why did God the Father send His Son into the world?

To save man from his sins.

"Thou shalt call His name Jesus. For He shall save His people from their sins." (Matthew 1:21)

Does Jesus Christ have the power to forgive sins?

Yes, Jesus has the power to forgive sin because He is God.

Did Jesus Christ forgive sins while on earth?

Yes, He forgave the sins of the paralyzed man (Luke 5:18-26), the woman taken in adultery (John 8:1-11), the sinful woman (Luke 7:39-50) and the good thief (Luke 23:39-43).

Did Jesus Christ give anyone the power to forgive sin?

Yes, to His Apostles on Easter Sunday night.

"Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained." (John 20:23)

Did Jesus want His Apostles to hand down this power to others?

Yes, because He died to save all men from their sins.

"This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, Who will have all men to be saved." (1 Timothy 2:3-4)

How did the Apostles hand down this power to others?

By making other men bishops and priests.

After the Apostles died, the bishops have continued to hand down the power of forgiving sin, during the past 2,000 years, through the Sacrament of Holy Orders.

Who has the power to forgive sin today?

All bishops and priests of the Catholic Church can forgive sin.

What is the Sacrament of Penance?

Penance is the Sacrament by which the sins committed after Baptism are forgiven.

What do you have to do to have your sins forgiven?

You have to be truly sorry for them and confess them to a Catholic priest.

"He that hideth his sins, shall not prosper: but he that shall confess, and forsake them, shall obtain mercy." (Proverbs 28:13)

Why do you have to confess your sins to a priest?

This is the way Jesus Christ wants sin to be forgiven. Otherwise, Christ would not have given His priests the power to forgive sin.

Why does the priest have to know what sins you have committed?

He has to know whether he is to forgive your sins or "retain" them.

If you are truly sorry, he will grant you forgiveness (called "absolution"); if not, he must retain them (that is, refuse to give you absolution).

Does the priests only pray that your sins will be forgiven?

No, the priest, by the power given him, actually takes the sins off your soul (called "absolution").

"For what I have pardoned... I have done it in the person of Christ." (2 Corinthians 2:10)

Can you be sure that your sins are forgiven in Confession?


Yes, if you have properly confessed them and are sorry for them.

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all iniquity." (1 John 1:9)

What does Confession do for your soul?

Besides taking sin off your soul, Confession also--
puts Sanctifying Grace back into your soul, if you were in mortal sin
makes the Grace grow, if you had only venial sins
gives you extra strength to stay away from sin in the future.

Can all sins be forgiven in Confession?

Yes, if you are truly sorry for them.

What is meant by "being sorry for your sins"?

"Being sorry" means--
that you wish you had not committed the sins
that you sincerely promise not to commit those sins again
that you promise to stay way from any person, place, or thing that easily leads you into sin.

What kind of sorrow do you have to have to be forgiven?

Religious sorrow, that is, you must be sorry because you dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of Hell (imperfect sorrow), and/or because you have offended the infinitely good God (perfect sorrow).

Therefore, to have your sins forgiven, it is not enough to be sorry because your sins have caused you to lose your job or some money. The sorrow has to be religious. Sorrow for sin is called contrition. You do not have to feel the sorrow with your emotions.

Why do you not have to be afraid of Confession?

You do not have to be afraid because--
you may go to any priest you want
in the confessional, a screen hides you from the priest
the priest is never allowed to tell anyone any sin he has ever heard in Confession. This secrecy is called the "Seal of Confession."

What sins do you have to confess?

All your mortal sins.

What kind of sin is it deliberately to omit telling a mortal sin in Confession?

A mortal sin of sacrilege. This is called making a bad Confession.

To undo a bad Confession, you have to confess that you made a bad Confession, confess the omitted mortal sin(s), and confess any other mortal sins you have committed since then (including Communions received in the state of mortal sin).

What should you do if you forget to confess a mortal sin?

You must tell it in your next Confession and tell the priest that you forgot it.

But the sin is forgiven and you may receive Communion in the meantime.

What do you do if you have no mortal sins to confess?

Tell your venial sins

How often do you have to go to Confession?

At least once a year (if you have committed a mortal sin).

If you ever commit a mortal sin, say the Act of Contrition right away and go to Confession as soon as possible. If you have perfect contrition for the mortal sin and intend to confess it in Confession, God forgives you and takes away the sin right away. but you may not receive Holy Communion until you confess it in Confession.

How often does a good Catholic go to Confession?

Once a week if possible, but at least once a month.

Remember that in Confession you receive grace from the Sacrament of Penance. Besides, in Confession you receive special helps to overcome the temptations that bother you most.

PRACTICAL POINTS

In Confession the eternal punishment (Hell) is taken away, but all of the temporal punishment due to your sins is not always taken away. "Temporal punishment" means that, even though all your sins are forgiven through the Sacrament of Penance, God still requires that you be punished for your sins, either in this life or in Purgatory. So, Confession does not make sinning easier. One of the chief ways by which you can make up for your sins is by gaining indulgences. (See Lesson 26).

If you are in danger of death and cannot go to Confession right away, be sure to make an act of perfect contrition; say the Act of Contrition, or simply tell God you are sorry for all your sins because they offend Him, Who is all good, and beg His mercy. If somebody else (whether Catholic or not) is in danger of death, it is a great act of charity to help him to be sorry for offending God and to beg God's mercy.

The Doctrine of Men Forgiving other mens sins is Actually Blasphemy! (Mark 2:7, Luke 5:21)

One doesn't need to go and a see a Sinful Priest
to be able to confess to God (1 Timothy 2:5)

Lets face it, That Catholic Priest could very well be a Satanist/Society of Judas Type or a Homo or a Child Molester
(Who will most definatly be a WAY BIGGER SINNER than You are)

Telling Him my Private Business doesn't cleanse/absolve me of my Sins, it just gives an old Queen some Gossip to share with his buddies and I will still have to answer for those Sins at the Judgement day
(As I didn't Bring them to Christ's feet, I brought them to a Pagan-Sun-Worshiper)

Christ Loves to Hear your Prayers Ascend Directly to Him and Will Forgive anyone who is truly Repentive

The Revolving MerryGoround of the Catholic Confesional Booth is a Satanic Attack at Christ's Plan of Redemption

Making a Man Chant off his Sins as Punishment is Works Based.

Christ's Death was enough, No ORGANIZATION Can Add to Christ's Atonement, if we add we make a Mockery of Calvery and say we are actions that it was insufficent.

But the Catholic Church Does EveryThing Backwards to Christ's Way and Opposite of The Scriptures

Catholicism is a cult.

Catholics worship idols.

Mary is asleep in her grave until Christ's return.

Praying to Mary accomplishes nothing.

Through the Canadian residential school system, the Christian churches along with state authorities, the judiciary, doctors and the police implemented a policy of genocide, rape and Pedophilia against the native population. The total number of aboriginals killed in the Canadian genocide by the British Crown is approximately 25 million persons, and amounts to one of the world's secret genocides. Over 50,000 aboriginal children are still missing and unaccounted for from the residential schools operated by the Catholic and other churches on behalf of the British Crown.
Don't believe anything, only know it.

How could the Roman Catholic Church expect their parisioners to follow their man made doctrine when all it does is condemn everybody to Hell that does not follow "their" Laws and commandements ?

Gos specifically stated NOT to follow the Man made doctrines. You have full access to The Father NOBODY needed to stand inbetween. That is why the Temple's inner curtain was torn in half when He died.

We all have access to God not through ANY intermediary. Speak to and listen for God YOURSELF. You do not need ANY CHURCH.

He said where there is two or more gathered in His name there He will be.
