Fr. Hardon’s Personal Pledge of Orthodox Roman Catholic Purity:

Fr. Hardon’s Personal Pledge of Orthodox Roman Catholic Purity:

No price is too big, no sacrifice too great, no heroism too magnificent for the clean of heart. To Father John Hardon,S.J. the sacrifice of self by avoiding any and all occasions of sin against purity and chastity is rewarded by the acquisition of God and by the maintenance of good health, moral balance, and peace of soul. As Father John Hardon often taught: "The price of heaven is not cheap; it is very expensive." Compare, the health and happiness of the pure with the discontent, sexual diseases and distrust of the degenerate.

"Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ" is the advice to all seeking Christian purity. An orthodox Roman Catholic is one who, first of all, turns away from the worship of his own body and sensual pleasures "by denying himself and taking up his Cross daily." To do this means turning abruptly away from all occasions of sin in impurity and chastity, especially in the media and from others, so we can literally "put on Jesus Christ." We must practice the virtue of holy purity by denying ourselves and thus consoling the suffering heart of Our Divine Savior for our own sins and for those who are pertinaciously unchaste sinners of impurity. It is imperative that we practice the traditional Catholic rule of all chastity and purity: "Custodia Oculorum" or "Control of the eyes." Not only was this the devout practice of the spiritual life in monasteries and convents and seminaries for centuries and by holy Catholics in the world of the past, but it ought to be practiced by all orthodox Roman Catholics today, especially in the corrupt sexually perverted age in which we live today!

The Purity Pledge of an Orthodox Roman Catholic"

I promise to:

A. Avoid all occasions of sin to impurity in the media, by a limited responsible use of television, the movies, reading newspapers, magazines, investigating the internet, or listening to the radio. Father John Hardon, S.J. taught that: Even "a limited responsible useage" is inferior to a total fast because it is no guarantee to a life without venial or mortal sins of impurity. Only a complete fast can do this, the way Fr. John Hardon, S.J. lived, a life of total detachment to modern media because it is "a luciferian conspiracy against the truth."

B. Strict adherence to chaste wedlock before and after marriage by avoiding persons, places, and all actions of impurity: birth control, abortion, adultery, sodomy, fornication, or self-abuse.

C. Dress modestly at all times in public or private.

D. Keep vigilant guard over one’s eyes and thoughts to avoid all occasions of sin wherever possible, especially being cognizant
that curiosity is the number one weapon Satan uses to make many souls fall, for curiosity is the epitome of concupiscence of
the "eye", that Our Lord repeatedly warns against, for it inevitably leads to concupiscence of the "flesh." Just as a ‘roving eye can be deleterious likewise one should keep strict guard over his thoughts, for an idle mind is ‘the devil’s workshop.’

E. Recite the entire rosary daily to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Model of Purity, by saying the joyful, sorrowful, and glorious mysteries.

F. Receive the Sacrament of Confession often so your Communions will be more worthy of Infinite Purity Himself, the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

G. Attend daily Mass and Communion.

H. Make at least an hour of Eucharistic Adoration a week.

I. Recite the Stations of the Cross every Friday.

J. Perform little acts of self-mortification and self-denial during the day.

K. Keep in mind Father John Hardon, S.J.’s famous statement on purity: "Only two kinds of people will reach heaven: the very chaste and the very humble. Nobody else, nobody else, nobody else."


P.S. Simply leave your name with your Immaculate Mother Mary in Heaven and her infinitely pure Divine Son next time you
receive Communion, just after you have received the Sacrament of Confession, and Pray for all of us sinners that we may be humble and chaste.
