Sex abuse and the Catholic Church.

That these sex abuse tragedies are a horror for the catholic church is evident. But these horrors must be absorbed by us and taken in prayer to the wounds of Christ. that Satan has unleashed his hounds of hell through the Ignorant and or hateful is also a given. That the Church has begun a defense so as to put perspective is both right and just. That the Church has had to install programs to protect the children from this present darkness is Good. But the one element that is lacking is the ax of apostolic authority laying the ax to the root of the problem.
If any one makes one of these little ones to stumble it would be better if they would tie a millstone around there neck and drown themselves. now lets pray that this apostolic authority separates the wheat from the chaff. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS WITH POPE BENEDICT THIS PROCESS HAS BEGUN.

One other Word remains to be said however. The office of divine mercy has been given to the Church and as another brother has pointed out, these priestly offenders are not beyond the pale of repentance,healing and restoration. not to there former office, but as sinners in need of redemption. For us not to embrace this truth is to leave us open to reap the whirlwind of his judgment for us to. the our father says, forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.

Shallom Brothers and Sisters. It has been awhile since I have written and thought I would do a bit of reflection.
After the Holy Spirit granted me a actual Grace in 1974 at a Nicky Cruz crusade in Cleveland Ohio and I was full of zeal and lacking in knowledge,I and many thousands like me who came out of mainstream quote"religion"
thought that Religion was bad or evil or at the least lacking the personal relationship.. that relationship of Jesus.
After the Holy Spirit integrated me back to the full deposit of the faith, ie:the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. I slowly realized that religion is not a bad thing. that the word religion has sensible meaning. It is The personal and corporate presence of God that we find in religion, at least a healthy religion.
The word religion is not a dirty word. There is no substitute for the personal presence of God, but it is the Word of God that created all that there is,including the word religion, its dynamics, and his essence that he is at liberty to ingest to this word. Slowly I have had to go looking for the baby I threw out with the Bath water.And that Baby was Christ. but Christ has not remained a baby and he wont let us reduce him to a baby locked in time. What he does do is lead and prod and punish us into a mature man or women of God so as to handle all things well. including Religion.

Shalom all. I have not written in a while so here goes. About Fort Hood. there is plenty of blame to go around. From the top down we have droped the ball. First those brave men and women during the revolution that put there sacred honor on the line there fortunes&families have been dishonored by our actions. Lord God forgive us all for our sins of commission and omission. there was plenty of evidence that this officer responsible for the Ft. hood massacre was a traitor. those who knew this and kept a low profile to protect there careers share in a way some responsibility. this silence helped throw the dirt that would eventually be thrown on there casket's. Our Government which was more concerned with trolling for more information then the lives of our troops is  inexcusable. Our Government's involvement in social and global Engineering of society& its sister, political correctness was and is Guilty of promoting this Ideology that has led more Lambs to the Slaughter. what does the nwo and Islam have in common?. Answer: the tyranny of silence. Islam demands that people have no right to express faith tempered with reason. and the global elite that are promoting this, also do so with political correctness in our and other countries. Maj. Nidal Malick Hasan It has been said loved Death more then life. And his actions back this up. We know that many in our government also love death more then life.the promotion of Abortion is just one act of jihad against this country by those in our country. Both Islam and the nwo want to divorce reason from faith. Like Abraham let us offer our lives and children on His sacred altar of faith,hope&love for G-D Through Jesus Christ offers us a reasonable faith filled with Resurection Power. The culture of Death only offers a faith without hope or reason.

From The Thorn Bush

this latest trend toward the young insofar as arresting our kids IE those under 18 is very predictable. they the elitist in power want to have authority over mankind period. they say peace and freedom, then enact laws of slavery. massive taxation to keep the ant farm running. they murder the unborn, they usurp the parental God given right to raise our children, they enact wars so we can send our good christian young men&women to die for a bastardized form of democratic socialism. and we continue to elect them. It is time for Christians to stop listening to the pied piper of left verses right and to hear what the Spirit is saying to the Churches. God has not given the Church to spread democracy. the mandate is to spread the Kingdom of God. western democracy is no longer doing this. arise o sleeper and awake unto righteousness. P.P.Z.
