Featured The Biblical Basis of 10 Catholic Distinctives

I would say that ark, like much in the Old Testament, was the foreshadowing of Jesus Christ, not of Mary. If Christians were supposed to view Mary as the ark of the New Covenant, it is surprising in the extreme that in all the epistles, there is not one mention of such a thing, which if true would be very important. No, the epistles point to Christ.

 

The Ark is a created thing, and Mary is a creature. God is Uncreated but manifested with the Ark.
The Ark was a porthole between the created and Uncreated world’s.

Jesus came to us through Mary.

In this we see both Covenants drawn together in beauty and symmetry.

Luke gives the indication of Mary’s role and identity as the Ark, when matched with Samuel.

But over all is the roles these Arks play is the best indicator of the link between them. They were the means by which God would manifest Himself to the world. But also the role of the Arks at the Great Atonement sacrifices in the Old Covenant and New Covenant.

 

Profane in this sense means, those to whom it is not given to understand.

 

GOD IS A DEVOURING FIRE. GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE.

The SATANIC and CURSED or CURSED and SATANIC idolatry of the man-made devilish pictures above posted, and pictures of ALL defuncts beatified by Popes, Filli of Devil, knowing that around the idolater pictures a legion of spirit of demons are circuling them to attract people to venerate and worship them, and through this DEMONIC idolatry the people are drawn away and are delivered them to the king of darkness, the MAN of sin, the Old Serpent, the father of the Jews-John 8:44, murderers of the true prophets of GOD, and murderers of JESUS who is now sat at the right hand of GOD Father, whom they rejected as Messiah.

Then now will come the false messiah, an ESOTERIC and KABBALISTIC and SPIRITIST messiah, the MAN of sin, the Devil, in LITERAL fulfillment of 2 Thessalonians 2:3-12, and the souls of all idolaters of all religions, CURSED BY MY LORD JESUS, go toward the hell's fire by the Power of my GOD and Father-Matthew 10:26-27, prepared for the Devil and his followers, as said JESUS-Matthew 25:41and 46, and also Isaiah, the true pophet of my GOD, as is written: Isaiah 33:14-14:

13 Hear, ye that are far off(the Gentile peopes),what I have done; and, ye that are near(the JEWS), acknowledge my might.

14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

The spiritist Catholicism which invokes and pray and worship defuncts beatified by Popes, and the esoteric, and kabbalistic, and spiritist Judaism, what both religious system practice are all ministered according to the father of the Jews - John 8:44.

GOD IS A DEVOURING FIRE. GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE.

What did Paul say to the believers in the Church of Corinth? Paul Apostle said : 2 Corinthians 11:12-15 --> 12 What I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion wherein they glory...13 For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

14 And no marvel; for SATAN himself is transformed into an angel of light. (the light is the Word of GOD)

15 Therefore it is no great thing if his MINISTERS(Ministers of Satan, like the idolater ministers of the RCC) also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose END shall be according to their works.

THE WAR IS AGAINST THREE UNCLEAN SPIRITS LIKE FROGS - WHY FROGS?

Revelation 16:v.13 to 16
1 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the Dragon, and out of the mouth of the Beast, and out of the mouth of the False Prophet.
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Ar - mag - eddon.
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

Mate, are you on the spectrum or something? Not making fun here either. Your posts are rather gratuitous.

 

What does the Word of GOD say? Revelation 11:15-18

15...The kingdoms OF THIS WORLD (WORLD OF THE DEVIL) are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,

17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.

18 And the nations (ALL NATIONS, INCLUDE ISRAEL) were(WILL BE) angry, and GOD's WRATH IS COME, and the time of the dead, that they should be Judged, and that thou should give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and should destroy them which destroy the earth.

Revelation 12:9-12
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was(WILL BE) cast out into the earth, and his messengers were cast out with him.

10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven(heaven? Ephesiqans 1:3-8), Now is come salvation, and strength, and the Kingdom of our GOD, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens(heavens? Ephesians 1:3-8), and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Jon, I know you mean well. But I don’t think you have the full picture, and you are way off in weeds with your Catholic “ paganism “ idea.

Yes, we are in the Apocalypse now, and Mary being the Ark of the New Covenant will become obvious to you as the intensity increases and final battle approaches.

Revelation 20:1-6

20 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

 

“Then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Why do You speak to the people in parables?”He replied, “The knowledge of the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance.”

This is why we follow the Apostolic understanding of Scripture not the human founded traditions conflicted interpretations of Scripture.

 

What I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion wherein they glory...
For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.
And no marvel; for SATAN himself is transformed into an angel of light. (the light is the Word of GOD)
Therefore it is no great thing if his MINISTERS(Ministers of Satan, like the idolater ministers of the RCC) also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose END shall be according to their works. 2Cor.11:15-

Revelation 18:7-21 to be LITERALLY fulfilled from now on:
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,

13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.

14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.

15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

16 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!

17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,

18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.

20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven(heaven?Ephesians 1:3-8), and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on her.

21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea(where is the Beast of sea; sea =peoples, and NATIONS, and multitudes of azll tongues-Revelation 17:15), saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.

 

Mate. Try the less is more approach. A lot less.

 

What matters and prevails is the Word of GOD, the Word is GOD, GOD Himself, self-executing, understand?

My Lord JESUS said and made it very clear : Luke 19:26-27 --> 26 For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be GIVEN; and from him that hath not, even that he hath SHALL BE TAKEN AWAY FROM HIM. And He Himself also ordained : 27 But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them BEFORE ME.

Every religious men who work for the satanic Beast of sea, the Papacy, the main partner of the red Dragon with his 7 heads and 10 horns, that Old Serpent, the Devil and Satan- Revelation 12:9- , all kind of evangelical sects, and also the modern and devilish pseudo-Christian movements called gospel , among others, will be Judged by the Word of GOD and cast down into the fire and will be burned with everlasting fire. 2Peter 3:7--> But the heavens (heavens?Ephesians 1:3-8) and the earth(ISRAEL), which are now, by the same Word are kept in store, reserved unto FIRE against this Day of Judgment (the Lord's Day, the seventh and last Day, or seventh and last millennium) and perdition of ungodly men.

Romans 2:5-12
5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart treasurest up unto thyself WRATH against the Day of Wrath and revelation of the righteous Judgment of GOD;

6 Who will render to every man according to his deeds:

7 To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honour and immortality, eternal life:

8 But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the Truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,

9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;

10 But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:

11 For there is no respect of persons with GOD.

GOD and JESUS my Lord, made it very clear saying: I will give power unto my two witnesses, these have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy(as is happening in Brazil): and have power over waters to turn them (peoples, and NATIONS, and multitudes of all tongues) to blood, and to SMITE the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

 

You have presented zero evidence of this supposed amalgamation of paganism and Catholicism.
If you read Constantine, you see a total separation of the two, they were starkly incompatible with each other.
You have the testimony of the Apostolic Fathers on the Eucharist which you deny and persist in calling it pagan. And all the Churches for first 1500 years believed in the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
You deny the regeneration of Baptism, which again was unanimously believed by all the Churches for the first 1500 years and even among the reformers.

You deny the perpetual virginity which again all churches unanimously believed for the first 1500 years and even the reformers.

You deny it by your human founded traditions interpretation of Scripture. Why is your interpretation of scripture better all the Fathers, Councils and all Christianity for the first 1500 years.
Don’t claim Scripture as your authority, these witnesses preserved the scriptures , and determined the Bible in the first place.

All I see on your part is a litany of denials of the ancient Apostolic beliefs.

Zwingli was first denier of the Eucharistic real presence, and at the same time human traditions formed denying Baptismal regeneration. All on their impious opinions of scripture.

Who were these arrogant rebellious men to deny the beliefs of all preceding Christianity.

You are following the private interpretations of human founded traditions.

 

There should be Catholic Chaplin assigned to the hospital.

It is not important who the Catholic priest is, the important thing is that the Sacraments are administered. The Apostolic Judgement and Authority is the same regardless of who the priest is.

I wouldn’t fuss one second about having my favourite priest there. It’s nice, but many forget what’s most important, Confession, receiving Jesus in the Eucharist if possible, and Anointing is the point at that stage.

I wouldn’t hold out for the favourite priest. If he is a parish priest these days, he is the busiest man in the world.

Any Catholic Priest ASAP, in my cradle Catholic opinion.

Many harrowing dramas in Catholic film and literature are based on the necessity of a priest in various circumstances of mortal peril.
The need to be shriven of a troubled conscience at the point of death, is the kind of stuff Shakespeare made hay of, and certainly Graham Greene.

But all these have a basis true situations. I remember one about a time during the Korean War when a North Korean soldier searched everywhere to finally capture a priest at gunpoint during the invasion of the South.
To the priests surprise the soldier asked the priest for Confession or he would blow the Priests head off, because the soldier could be killed at any time, either by the enemy or his own communist atheist government.
Then he made the most ardent confession of the most horrible sins he committed as soldier and was given absolution.

It would be hard to be a North Korean Catholic soldier at the best of times. It was the death penalty or gulag which is the death penalty anyway to be Christian in North Korea. The surprise was any existed.
So this North Korean soldier would have thanked his lucky stars ( so to speak ) to find any Catholic priest in those circumstances.

Generally and ordinarily all mortal sins are to be “committed to the keys of the Church” as Augustine says.

Outside of that with no priest available, a person must make a perfect act of contrition to be forgiven of these, only this does not carry the assurance of hearing the Apostolic Judgement that you are forgiven. And it’s hard for humans to do a perfect anything.

Also Father Damien of Molokai a leper colony was the only priest on the island. For fear of leprosy visiting ships could not receive him aboard and he had to make his confession from the tender where all the ship could hear it.

So in dire circumstances of mortal peril, any Catholic priest will do fine.

I’m sorry to hear it mate, hang in there.
