A Candle Shines No More –
A darkness cursed. May your light shine in the darkness. And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived. That is history but it is happening again.
A Gospel Preached To All Nations
A Church in disarray. The spirit of Vatican 2 suggests the laity are now in charge of preaching the gospel. What is the gospel? Who is protecting it? You don’t have to change it, just ignore it and work on more important things like climate change. Perhaps protecting the truth now is more important than preaching it.
A Book And An Internet
A fisher of men. The laity are called to be His disciples. Fish or cut bait. Don’t waste your talent. You are being called to do what you can and you are what you do. Talk is cheap. Reach out as far as you can. Across the street or around the world. The Light shines in the darkness. Reflect It.
A Spirit Of Vatican 2
A duty of the laity. The teachings of the Church are not being changed. They are being ignored. Life, Marriage, and Family are being ignored. Mercy and the Eucharist are being promoted but that is not sufficient. Culture trends must be resisted. Social justice is replacing religion just as Marx would have it.
A Revelation For All Nations
A job for the laity. “They will open wider the doors of the Church” according to Lumen Gentium 36. Is this the “spirit of Vatican 2”? “Open wider the doors” so they can get out faster? It’s working. “Go, you are dismissed.” The bishops are busy moving money and priests so it is our job to “witness unto all nations”.
