Prepare For The Second Coming

Sermon From
9th Sunday After Pentecost 2013
During the announcements today we learn what things are necessary for the upcoming Confirmations.  This Mass is a warning so we are ready when Our Lord returns for the Final Judgment.  Jerusalem and people in general live lives of distraction which deflects their attention from the important things in life and this renders them oblivious to Christ on the day of His visitation.  If we heed the words of the Epistle and Gospel we will have a clear conscience and receive Jesus as we should.

The Fifth Commandment and Self Defense

First Friday Conference May 2013

Many prelates in the Church stand against a person’s right to bear arms and, by extension, to defend himself.  This comes from a fundamental misunderstanding of the natural law. The Ten Commandments, which express the natural law, encompass more than what is strictly stated. Within the fifth commandment we are not only forbidden to take a life unjustly, by the negative principle, but we are also instructed to do what is necessary to preserve our lives.  It is not sinful for an individual to possess the means of defending his life and limb, and the lives of those dependent on him, and he is commanded to do so if possible.

The Covenant Has Been Renewed

Easter Sunday 2013
We have now had the culmination of the whole Lenten season. We have been catechumens and penitents in preparation for our union with Christ in the Holy Eucharist. Now we walk with Christ in the liturgy. Our Lenten time of training began with the season of examination, then we had to follow Christ to Jerusalem. The Blessed Mother offered her Son on the Cross for each one of us. We have now renounced Satan and proclaimed our faith. We may be small and afraid, just as the Apostles were, but Our Lord had not forgotten them and he has not forgotten us. All order is restored by Christ’s words, “peace be to you.”
