"But we will now explain another duty of the diligent and faithful servant: "And lamps burning in your hand." It is not sufficient for the faithful servant to have his "loins girt," that so he may freely and easily meet his Lord; a burning lamp is also required to show him the way, because at night he should be expecting the Lord, when He returneth from the nuptial banquet. In this place, "the lamp" signifies the law of God, which will point out the right path. David saith: " Thy word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path."
[St. Robert Bellarmine – XVI-XVII Century A.D.; born: Montepulciano, Grand Duchy of Tuscany/died: Rome, Papal States; (Aged 78); Cardinal; Rector; Professor; Doctor of the Church; Role in Giordano Bruno & Galileo cases] What will they do then, when death cometh suddenly upon them, who are now wholly immersed in worldly cares, and who never think for one moment of the account they will have to give to God, of all their works, of all their words, of all their thoughts, of all their desires, and of all their omissions ? Will these be able to meet Christ, with their loins girt? Rather, will they not, being entangled and bound, fall in their sins into despair? For what can they answer, when the Judge shall say unto them: “Why did you not attend to my words, with which I so often admonished you, saying: Seek first the kingdom of God and his justice, and all other things shall be added unto you? And why also did you not consider those words, which you must have so often heard in the church, …More
"The "law is a light” saith Solomon in the Book of Proverbs. But this lamp cannot illumine or point out the way, if it be left in our chamber or house, and therefore we must hold it in our hand, that it may show us the right way. Many there are well acquainted with divine and human laws, but they commit many sins, or omit many good and necessary works, because they have not a lamp in their hands that is, because their knowledge does not extend to works. How many most learned men are there, who commit very grievous sins, because when they act they consult not the law of the Lord, but their anger, their lust, or some other passion!"
May 10th - Saint of the Day: Saint John of Ávila, Priest & Doctor of the Church He wanted to be a missionary overseas… but God made him a firestarter at home.Saint John of Ávila became known as the Apostle of Andalusia, preaching through southern Spain with the kind of boldness that made sinners wake up, saints rise up, and the Church remember what true reform looks like.Here’s the wild part: he was once imprisoned by the Inquisition, later cleared, and eventually declared a Doctor of the Church. From prison cell to spiritual giant. That is Catholic history at full volume.He helped inspire Saint John of God, Saint Francis Borgia, and Saint Teresa of Ávila. He preached Eucharistic reverence, priestly holiness, repentance, charity, and real love for Christ. His advice for preaching well was simple: “Love God very much.”Saint John of Ávila reminds us that holiness is not soft, boring, or outdated. It is disruptive. It changes people. It reforms …More
Hl. Johannes von Avila - Gedenktag: am 10. Mai Priester, Glaubensbote in Andalusien * um 1500 in Almodóvar del Campo in Kastilien in Spanien † 10. Mai 1569 in Montilla bei Córdoba in Spanien Johannes' Vater war Jude und zum Christentum konvertiert. Seine jüdische Abstammung war wohl der Grund, dass Johannes sein Jura-Studium aufgeben musste. Dann studierte er Theologie und wollte Missionar in Afrika werden, was aber scheiterte. Ab 1530 durchzog er als Missionar Andalusien. Seine Aufnahme in den Jesuiten-Orden scheiterte am Einspruch des andalusischen Jesuiten-Provinzials, wohl wieder wegen seiner jüdischen Abstammung. Nach rund zehn Jahren erfolgreicher Arbeit gerade unter einfachen Leuten wurde Johannes krank. Er hinterließ zahlreiche Schriften, u.a. über die Eucharistie, und Marienpredigten. Heilige, Namenstage, Patrone - Ökumenisches …
10.05.2026 CARDINAL RATZINGER’S HIDDEN SECRET NOT TOLD TO MARCO RUBIO BY POPE LEO : INJUSTICE AGAINST US TRADITIONALISTS Pope Leo did not tell Marco Rubio, the U.S Secretary of State, and a Catholic, that the U.S State Department like the Vatican, has made an objective mistake in the interpretation of Vatican Council II. This is important information which remains hidden and a secret, as the Vatican prepares to excommunicate the Society of St. Pius X (SSPX) hierarchy and Catholic families,in July, who will not accept Vatican Council II interpreted irrationally and unethically. The issue is: LG 8, 14, 16, UR 3, NA2, and GS 22 in Vatican Council II. LG 8 etc are obviously hypothetical and physically invisible cases in 2026. So they are not objective examples of salvation outside the Catholic Church. They are not objective exceptions for the dogma extra ecclesiam nulla salus(EENS), the Athanasius Creed and the ecclesiocentric ecclesiology of the old Roman Missal. But the Vatican, like …More
Synod Report Is a Subversive Attempt to Overthrow Catholic Morality: Speaking to EWTN, Rev Gerald Murray blasted the Vatican’s Synod Study Group number 9 report as “horrific,” calling it “a subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality on the question of homosexuality.” He warned that “the Synod office is now just another public relations arm of that pressure group,” before adding: “They’re setting out to normalize homosexuality in the life of the church.” Rev Murray also said: “If God made you a homosexual, then how could He stop you from exercising your homosexuality by engaging in homosexual acts, namely, sodomy?”
Fr. Gerald E. Murray on EWTN: "And the document, the report of study group number nine is horrific. I'll say that quite clearly. I've read that document. I find it to be a subversive attempt to overthrow Catholic morality on the question of homosexuality. And this is a really, really crucial moment for the church because. The program of subversion in plain sight of Catholic teaching on the immoral nature of homosexual activity and the disordered nature of the homosexual inclination, this is a number one target for some people in the church. And sad to say, the Synod office is now just another public relations arm of that pressure group."
Cardinal Bernardin, Arch Bishop Weakland . McCarrick ....etc been promoting homosexuals during the great JPII give me a break like this just happened over night. BXVI in power since 1980s maybe he was homosexual snake
Strickland has criticized the Study Group’s reporting on homosexuality as a “direct assault upon Catholic moral doctrine and upon the words of Scripture itself,” arguing that the “Church cannot change what God Himself has revealed.”
But their a part of Abrahamic faith wow didn't know Abraham kids were such perverts. Vatican LG 16 just one of many documents that prove Vatican II is from hell
Jordan Peterson (?) ~~ I used to think that the worst thing in life was to end up alone. It's not. The worst thing in life is end up with people who make you feel alone...
On Friday, Leo XIV. visited Naples Cathedral. Shortly before his arrival, the blood of Saint Januarius reportedly liquefied off-schedule. The miracle traditionally occurs three times a year and has also been linked to earlier papal visits, including that of Pius IX in 1848. During visits by John Paul II in 1979 and Benedict XVI in 2007, the miracle did not occur. Francis witnessed a partial liquefaction in 2015.
Papst Leo XIV. zeigt das auf wundersame Weise verflüssigte Blut des Heiligen Januarius in der Kathedrale von Neapel.
Susie Wiles’ Email Demanding WH Staffers Stop Leaking to Press Is Leaked to Press An email from President Trump’s White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles ordering staff to stop leaking to the press was leaked to the press on Friday. In the directive, written in late March and obtained by Politico’s West Wing Playbook, Wiles warned that “no staff member within the Executive Office of the President is permitted to speak with members of the news media without the explicit approval of the White House Communications Office.” “Unauthorized leaks will not be tolerated and are subject to sanction up to and including termination,” she continued. She added: “Violation of this policy can result in significant disruption to ongoing operations and can potentially endanger missions and activities of national significance.” One person familiar told Politico that Wiles had become “generally very frustrated with leaks,” though the directive was not tied to any single incident. The crackdown is …More

Ambrosiaster (Catena Bible Romans1) AD 400 Those who knew by the law of nature that God requires righteousness realized that these things were displeasing to God, but they did not want to think about it, because those who do such things are worthy of death, and not only those who do them but those who allow them to be done, for consent is participation. Their wickedness is double, for those who do such things but prevent others are not so bad, because they realize that these things are evil and do not justify them. But the worst people are those who do these things and approve of others doing them as well, not fearing God but desiring the increase of evil. They do not seek to justify them either, but in their case it is because they want to persuade people that there is nothing wrong in doing them. Commentary on Paul’s Epistles
Jordan Peterson on a truth that should humble all of us: “I’ve never seen anyone get away with anything. Not even once.” You might twist the fabric of reality for a while — bend the rules, cut corners, play games — but it always snaps back. Sometimes years later, in ways you never saw coming. That’s why “the fear of God is the beginning of wisdom.” Not terror, but deep respect for the order of things.
Bombing and seizure of ships in the Strait of Hormuz! Three US destroyers under Trump's orders 'escorted' an oil tanker and a cargo ship. They entered the Strait of Hormuz violating Iranian passage rules. Iran first warned, then opened fire with missiles targeted to destroy. The cargo ship and tanker are burning out in the strait, US Navy ships are heavily damaged. Trump is in a hysteric state, US and UAE aviation attacked targets on Iranian territory. Iran responded with missiles. After night battles, the Iranian Navy captured the oil tanker. The violator of passage through the Strait of Hormuz was sailing under the flag of Barbados Бомбежка и захват судов в Ормузском проливе! Три эсминца США по велению Трампа «сопровождали» нефтяной танкер и сухогруз. Влезли в Ормузский пролив нарушив иранские правила прохождения. Иран сперва предупредил, потом открыл огонь ракетами на поражение.…More
