I am a Catholic of
good conscience who amid the spiritual noise and intemperance rashness and anti
virtuous confusion of the Phenomenon of Medjugorje through reasonable diligence
and by the norms of the Church seeks to provide a sensible counter balanced discernment
in cogency with the mind of the Church which Jesus founded through the
traditions of his apostles..
......just like Elijah
at the cave I seek to hear the voice of God not in the noise of the wind which
is the ever changing mercurial views of the people enslaved by curiosity nor in
the earthquake which is meant to mean the spirit of sin which comes from the
prince of the earth who is the Devil nor in the fire which is intemperance and
imprudence (rashness) but in the still small voice of spiritual contemplation which
is characterized by humility and trust and walking the ways of the Gospel of Christ
by taking up his cross and forgetting the self....amen
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples: If any man will come after me, let
him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
---Matthew 16:24 (Douay Rheims)
….”And He proposes this doctrine, not to His disciples only, but in
common to the whole world, saying, "If any man will," that is, if
woman, if man, if king, if free, if slave; there are three things mentioned;
"let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me."”
--Chrys:(St. Thomas, Catena Aurea (The
Golden Chain) Gospel of St. Matthew 16,
Lectio 6.
….”Hilary: We are to follow our Lord by
taking up the cross of His passion; and if not in deed, yet in will, bear Him
company.”
(Ibid)
…..to follow not only in deed but in WILL
is the key and by ignoring the will of the Bishop at Medjugorje we do not bear
Christ company since the good Bishop
bears no parity in character to the hands of the Sanhedrin or the hands of
Pilate or the hands of the Centurions
yet Christ submitted himself calmly in obedience to these unjust judges how
much should we at MEDJUGORJE submit ourselves to the Good Bishop yet the proponents
of Medjugorje do not see this and through their disobedience feel they are
doing God a great service which is a tragedy at best …..amen
